Yan Tian finally came to know who this man was. The man was the youngest uncle that Liu Ruoxin had spoke of. He seemed to be stylish, but not a minor character at all, since he drove a Bentley. Moreover, on the sofa there sat man. If Yan Tian hadn't guessed wrongly, the man should've been a bodyguard as well. He and the man could be considered in the same line of work.
Liu Ruoxin's youngest uncle's name was Liu Qiang. Within the family, he stood in seniority as the third lord. His appearance appeared to be around forty-somewhat-years-old, and all that could be seen was his imposing stature and skin that was like ancient bronze. At the moment, he was fully decked out in an expensive suit. His facial features were clear and distinct, similar to that of a Grecian statue. The deep gloominess in his icy eyes evidently couldn't contain his wild ferocity and devilish charm. His features had a handsomeness to it like they had been carved by a blade. His entire person radiated an awe-inspiring imperial aura. At the moment, an unrestrained, licentious smile could be seen on his sinister, handsome face.
"What business does uncle have in coming to my home?" Liu Ruoxin clearly didn't want to speak that much with her youngest uncle.
"I've heard somethings happened at your company, so I came over to have a look, hehe." Liu Qiang saw that she was unwilling to acknowledge him, so he laughed awkwardly.
"Hoo, I give my thanks in advance for uncle's concern, but I'm going to wash up first." Hearing her uncle's hypocrisy, Liu Ruoxin scoffed coldly, then went towards her room, holding her bag. It seemed like she was completely unwilling to receive Liu Qiang as a guest.
Liu Qiang watched her pace away, seeing that she wholly disregarded looking at him as an elder of the senior generation. Within his eyes, a barely discernable trace of murderous will was revealed. While this stand of murderous will was just caught by Yan Tian, nonetheless, he didn't say anything at all.
"Third Master, the last couple days' work have left the young miss tired. Don't take it too much to mind. This child has always been so icy." Auntie Sun felt that Liu Qiang was displeased, so she immediately spoke out on behalf of Liu Ruoxin.
"Haha, its of no harm. That child, how many years has it been, and she still hasn't changed in the slightest? Such a temper, hehe. I'll just wait here awhile for my darling niece, hehe."
Liu Qiang laughed indifferently after he heard Auntie Sun. The trace of dissatisfaction within his eyes before had entirely vanished. Based on Yan Tian's many years of experience, he could see that Liu Ruoxin's youngest uncle was quite adept at camouflaging his intentions, estimating he was a sly old fox in the world of business.
Originally, after Yan Tian took Liu Ruoxin home everyday, he had nothing to do. However, two guests had come to her home today, and moreover, the guests today appeared to be a bit unfavorable towards her. Therefore, he wasn't in any rush to leave. It couldn't be said for sure, but Liu Ruoxin could be in need of him soon.
"Woah, young man. Are you Ruoxin's……?" Liu Qiang recalled that there was a man that had come together with Liu Ruoxin after a good moment. He thought to himself that she and this man couldn't have been living together, right? That was certainly serious.
"Ah, I'm……" Once he heard Liu Ruoxin's youngest uncle ask him, Yan Tian suddenly didn't know what was a good thing to say, since as of the moment, he played quite a few roles. Since he was Liu Ruoxin's bodyguard, her driver, and also her one-time husband that he had played earlier on today at noon. What should he call himself? In any case, he couldn't say he was her bodyguard-driver-husband.
Mulling it over, Yan Tian prepared himself to say he was Liu Ruoxin's friend. Just as he was getting ready to speak though, he suddenly heard Liu Ruoxin's voice echo out: "He's my boyfriend." Immediately afterwards, Yan Tian saw Liu Ruoxin coming out wearing a pair of rather conservative pajamas. Since she just finished was.h.i.+ng up, her wet hair draped over her back.
Once he heard Liu Ruoxin say he was her boyfriend, Yan Tian's eyes widened like saucers. This was Liu Ruoxin's family. How could she have him play the role of her boyfriend in front of her family? Yan Tian thought to himself could it be that she truly liked him? Didn't he have to agree?
"What? This is your boyfriend?" Liu Qiang stood up quite incredulously.
"What? Is there a problem?" Liu Ruoxin used a towel to dry her hair and asked.
"Hmph, you're practically causing trouble. How could you go behind our backs and get a boyfriend on your own?" Liu Qiang seemed to bellow quite furiously.
How does me getting a boyfriend or not concern you? What right do you have to interfere in my personal life?" Liu Ruoxin retorted back at Liu Qiang's shouting once she heard his words. She didn't take her youngest uncle in the slightest to be a member of the senior generation.
"Hmph, I'm your elder. Both your parents aren't around anymore, so you ought to let your uncle consider your joyous nuptials. How could you act so willfully?"
"Uncle? Haha, you still believe yourself to be my uncle? How did you and my so-called uncle Liu Yong treat my father in those years?" Liu Ruoxin seemed have heard a ma.s.sive joke and laughed. She looked at her self-t.i.tled uncle with red eyes and yelled.
"You……I've told you many times. Me and your big uncle haven't even the tiniest connection with your father's death. We brothers we're quite pained by the death of your father. Furthermore, your big uncle is your elder. Even if it was your father, he would've respectfully called him brother. How could you address him so blatantly?" Liu Qiang's face turned purple in anger from from what Liu Ruoxin said. Liu Ruoxin simply didn't put her elders in her eyes.
"Hehe, so in the end, that's how it is. The heavens know and the earth knows. You and I know. Quit this caring pretense." Liu Ruoxin shook her head.
"Hmph, I'll tell you. Your big uncle and I have already considered your marriage. We've already decided to wed you to the Huang Family's Second Young Master. If you marry him, you marry him, but if you don't marry him, you still have to marry him. Since you were born in a grand clan, you should've considered everything for the family company." Liu Qiang snorted coldly and glared at Liu Ruoxin.
Hearing Liu Qiang's words, Yan Tian finally understood why Liu Ruoxin had wanted him to play her boyfriend again. So it turned out that Liu Ruoxin's marriage had long ago been arranged internally within her family. Moreover, it was some second young master of the Huang Family. Yan Tian recalled the time when Zi Qi had spoken of a Huang Family within China' Five Grand Families. These clans were China's apex dynasties, however, it seemed like Liu Ruoxin really didn't care about these things.
"Hmph, I'll tell you as well. You guys don't need to care about my affairs whatsoever. Since you've drawn up a marriage, you guys can go get married yourself.* You won't even have to look after me." Liu Ruoxin bit her lip and said.
"You……you'll make me die of anger."
Liu Qiang was clearly left angrily upset by Liu Ruoxin, so he raised his hand, preparing to slap her. However, how could Yan tian possibly let Liu Qiang have his way? He immediately moved his hand faster than the eye could see and caught Liu Qiang's hand, rendering him unable to move.
Once the man on the sofa saw Yan Tian holding Liu Qiang, he promptly stood up, giving Yan Tian a warning look.
"Didn't you hear? I'm her boyfriend. Boy. Friend. Do you know what a boyfriend is? I'd hate to fight, but you actually raised your hands." Yan Tian simply didn't even glance at the bodyguard, glaring at Liu Qiang instead.
"What's your deal. Let go of me." Liu Qiang tried to take back his hand, but Yan Tian's strength was too great. No matter how he struggled, Yan Tian didn't budge in the slightest bit.
Seeing that Yan Tian wasn't releasing the hand, Liu Qiang's bodyguard finally made a move. A punch slammed towards Yan Tian's arm, but there wasn't that much power behind it at all. On the grounds that this man and Liu Ruoxin had a relations.h.i.+p, he knew if his punch injured Yan Tian, then his ending wouldn't be good.
Yan Tian had long ago foresaw the bodyguard's action, so just as the bodyguard struck out, Yan Tian ruthlessly dragged Liu Qiang's arm forward. It was evident that the bodyguard hadn't antic.i.p.ated Yan Tian would suddenly make such a move, so his punch slammed into Liu Qiang's arm. Although he didn't use much strength, it caused Liu Qiang to holler out.
"Tsk Tsk Tsk, take a look at yourself, why don't you? Even your bodyguard thinks what you're doing isn't right. Are you not giving him his wages?" Yan Tian shook his head after he released Liu Qiang's hand.
"Ah…… Xiao Liang, what're you doing?" Liu Qiang used all of his strength to swing his arm after he was punched by his own bodyguard. Fortunately, the bodyguard hadn't used all of his strength, otherwise Liu Qiang would've been getting rushed to the hospital right now.
"I'm sorry, boss." The bodyguard saw he had punched his boss and hurriedly lowered his head in apology. At the moment, he felt waves of regret in his mind, but fortunately he didn't use the entirety of his power, otherwise, he would've been chopped liver.
*Kinda humorous here, since chinese has two different verbs to denote marriage as a man and a woman. Here Liu Ruoxin uses the female version in respect to her uncles marrying the young master of the Huang Family
