Chapter 496 Xu Feng-Liang''s Arrival
"Who knows?"
"But I heard the Xue family was kicked out of Longyang Martial Arts Academy."
"The Xue family has backed out of its alliance with the other two up anding families."
Everyone started gossiping.
Even the guests could detect something amiss. This was proof that the Xue family was in quite the
spot.
But just as the audience waited for the fighting match tomence, Xu Lei''s phone suddenly vibrated.
Then Ye Fan clearly sensed the woman next to him suddenly tremble after she looked at her phone.
"What''s wrong, Lei?” asked Ye Fan as he turned to look at her. Then he discovered that the stunning
beauty had lost all color on her face.
"Fan, Uncle Feng-Liang is here," replied Xu
Lei as she shivered slightly.
There were intense worry and panic in Xu Lei''s eyes.
Xu Lei probably respected Xu Feng-Liang in the family the most. He was the head of the Xu family and
her father''s younger brother.
Since Xu Feng-Liang could rise and be head of the Xu family, he was an extraordinary man.
Xu Feng-Liang used to be Xu Feng-Fei''s right-hand man back in the day, and Xu Lei''s father trusted
him the most.
Moreover, Xu Feng-Liang treated Xu Lei rather well after her parents passed away.
Xu Feng-Liang was the only person to wish Xu Lei a happy birthday each year.
Also, Xu Feng-Liang secretly helped to solve Xu Lei''s problems in Jiangdong whenever they arose all
these years.
So Xu Feng-Liang was the one person whom she was too embarrassed to face in the entire Xu family.
But what muste had finallye.
"What did he say?" asked Ye Fan softly as he looked at Xu Lei with his eyes turning dark.
Xu Lei handed her phone to Ye Fan to show him the single text appearing on it.
"Bring him to see me outside the arena."
The message was brief and to the point.
It was evident that Xu Feng-Liang must have a stern and dignified personality.
"Fan, Uncle Feng-Liang wants you to see him outside," said Xu Lei softly again. She sounded both
worried and anxious.
"Okay," said Ye Fan as he nodded.
Ye Fan returned Xu Lei her phone. Then he looked up to see several silhouettes standing respectfully
at the entrance up ahead.
A middle-aged man protected by bodyguards stood with his hands behind him while authority exuded
from his eyes.
His cloudy and stern eyes were looking right in Ye Fan and Xu Lei''s direction.
Even if Ye Fan neverid eyes on him before, he could tell the man was Xu Lei''s second uncle, Xu
Feng-Liang.
"Let''s go, Lei. It''s time to meet this uncle of yours. I need to tell your elders before I take you back to
Jiangdong anyway,” said Ye Fan calmly as he smiled. Then he stood up and brought Xu Lei over to
meet Xu Feng-Liang.
“Fan, I..." said Xu Lei as she pulled Ye Fan by the corner of his shirt and bit her lip.
Her gorgeous eyes were filled deeply with worry as she gazed at Ye Fan. She was both concerned and
terrified.
Xu Lei was worried that her uncle might do Ye Fan harm.
But she was even more concerned that she might get whisked home after seeing her uncle. Then she
would never get to see Ye Fan again.
Ye Fan shook his head as he smiled when he saw the look of fear in Xu Lei''s eyes. Then she touched
her delicate and exquisite nose and said, "It''s okay. Everything will be fine. Since I, Ye Fan, said I will
take you away from the Xu family and bring you back to Jiangdong, I will live up to my word. No one
can snatch you away from me."
A mighty strength radiated from Ye Fan''s low and calm voice.
Then it instantly calmed Xu Lei''s mood a lot.
She nodded hard to Ye Fan and said okay before heading over to her uncle with Ye Fan.
"Lei, where are you going?" asked Meng Han quizzically when she saw Ye Fan and Xu Lei suddenly
get up to leave.
But due to the noise or the daze Xu Lei was in, she didn''t hear Meng Han asking.
Instead, she followed closely behind Ye Fan and left.
"What else can they do? They must be feeling horny and going to the bathroom to make out. Haven''t
you seen how clingy they get? She even let that loser touch her nose. I wonder what Lei sees in him to
end up being so loyal to him. How can she be the belle of our faculty? It''s a sheer disgrace to the
finance faculty!" sneered Guo Ya-Wen in disdain.
Outside.
Ye Fan and Xu Lei arrived at the deck outside the cruise ship.
Then they spotted the stern and mature silhouette very quickly.
"Uncle Feng-Liang," greeted Xu Lei. Perhaps out of apprehension or fear, Xu Lei''s voice came out soft.
Then she hung her head and didn''t dare look at him.
Xu Lei thought her uncle would reprimand her fiercely.
But she was caught by surprise when Xu Feng-Liang didn''t throw a temper at her. Instead, Xu Feng-
Liang admired the lovelydy she had grown up into before he smiled and said, "You''re all grown up
now. When I disciplined you as a child, you were such a crybaby, but you have now grown into a young
woman. You inherited 70% of your mother''s good looks, but she can''tpare to the remaining 30% of
your beauty. My big brother and sister-inw would feel soforted if they could see their daughter
surpassing her mother and growing into such a stunning beauty.”
Xu Feng-Liang''s deep voice echoed as the cold wind swept it across theke.
Xu Lei''s eyes turned from listening to her uncle.
Tears flowed down from face insuppressibly.
"Uncle Feng-Liang...I...I''m sorry that I disappointed you," said Xu Lei as she wept and choked on her

words while tears came trickling down her face uncontrobly.
"Lei, there''s no need to be sorry. Everyone makes mistakes. You are still my darling niece and can
remain as the Xu family''s daughter if you are willing to repent and change. I know Mei-Feng and the
others are mean to you, so I agreed to your marriage to the Xue family for the sake of both the family
and you. I''m always away and can''t be home to protect you. If you marry into the Xue family, Mei-Feng
and the others can''t bully you. You will also receive 40% of the business'' shares as a part of your
dowry when you get married. Those shares once belonged to your father and will now be returned to
you. But sadly..."
Then Xu Feng-Liang shook his head disappointedly.
"Okay, leave us for a while. I have some things to say to this so-called Mr Ye."
Then after a moment''s silence, Xu Feng-Liang suddenly asked Xu Lei to leave and gestured to speak
to Ye Fan alone.
