Chapter 1358 The Duel
"Don't move!"
Su Yunxi's eyes and hands were quick. The firearm in her hand was raised sharply, pointing directly at the person's forehead.
Just as she was about to pull the trigger, she heard a familiar shout: "No, no, no..."
Didn't this voice sound like Chen Xuan?
Su Yunxi quickly stopped her action. Under the dim light, she looked carefully. Good heavens, if this wasn't Chen Xuan, who else could it be?
"Chen Xuan, why is it you?"
She exclaimed.
"Hehe... why wouldn't it be me..." Chen Xuan said with an embarrassed smile.
Actually, Chen Xuan originally wanted to play a romantic trick on Su Yunxi. He made some noise outside to lure Su Yunxi out, intending to perform a surprise attack and tease the beauty.
But who knew that his fiancée had been diligently practicing her marksmanship during this period.
Although she couldn't cultivate, as long as she was proficient with firearms, she could protect herself and cause less trouble for others.
This quick-draw technique was taught by Chen Xuan, and she had already mastered it to perfection.
The romance failed, and it almost caused an accident!
Alas, it's not good for a woman to be too strong.
"Why don't you hurry in? You scared me to death."
Seeing that it was Chen Xuan, Su Yunxi immediately put away her weapon and turned to walk into the room.
Chen Xuan leaped and rushed into the room, sweeping Su Yunxi onto the bed in the process.
"Chen Xuan... what are you doing..."
Su Yunxi struggled with all her might, her face flushed as red as an apple.
"Did you forget what you promised me?"
"I... forgot!"
Su Yunxi turned her head away, playing coy.
"Forgot? Then I'm going back to Jiangnan Province."
Chen Xuan actually stood up and made as if he were leaving.
"You stop right there!"
Su Yunxi immediately grew anxious when she heard this.
There were still several formidable women in Jiangnan Province eyeing him covetously. If Chen Xuan returned to Jiangzhou now, it would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's den.
"Is there anything else?"
Chen Xuan stood there and subconsciously turned his head. As soon as he turned, a soft and bouncy pair of sexy red lips had already pressed against him. Following closely was Su Yunxi's fiery body, entwining around Chen Xuan like a water snake, catching him completely off guard.
The temperature in the room gradually rose!
The next day.
The first rays of morning sunlight shone on Chen Xuan's face through the gap in the curtains.
His eyelashes trembled slightly. Chen Xuan opened his eyes. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and found that he was already undressed. He couldn't help but recall the intimacy of the previous night.
"Yun..."
Chen Xuan subconsciously blurted out Su Yunxi's name, but then saw that Su Yunxi was no longer by his side. There was a note next to him, stating that Su Yunxi had already gone to work.
He sighed helplessly, "After being so exhausted last night, why is she still going to work?"
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.
Chen Xuan's expression changed. He snapped awake, almost jumping up, and stared at the door with a guilty conscience.
"Young Master, Miss asked me to call you at nine o'clock sharp. Are you awake?" A servant's voice came from outside.
Chen Xuan's body trembled.
It was only then that he remembered that he had told Su Yunxi yesterday that he had important matters to attend to this morning, which was to go to Daqianmen to face the Hun family!
It was not early now.
"I'm awake!"
Chen Xuan quickly put on his clothes and then rushed out in a flurry.
Seeing Chen Xuan rush out of Su Yunxi's room, the servant was already accustomed to it. In their hearts, Chen Xuan had long been considered the young master of the Vermillion Bird lineage.
Meanwhile, downstairs, Jiang Biyun was still smiling and asking, "Chen Xuan, are you still having breakfast?"
Clearly, she had also accepted this outcome.
After all, without Chen Xuan, their Vermillion Bird lineage would probably not be able to establish itself in the capital!
Chen Xuan drove his car and soon arrived at Daqianmen.
Suddenly, two men in black trench coats blocked Chen Xuan's car: "Daqianmen is sealed off today. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter!"
Chen Xuan glanced at Daqianmen and saw that the black trench coats standing there were countless, completely surrounding Li Er's shop.
He knew that something big must have happened inside, so he jumped out of the car and rushed towards Daqianmen.
"You stop right there! Didn't you hear what I just said!"
The two men in black trench coats rushed up to stop Chen Xuan, but as soon as their hands grabbed Chen Xuan's shoulder, they felt as if they had touched an electric current and were sent flying back, letting out a scream.
Then, Chen Xuan continued forward.
The scream attracted the attention of the men in black trench coats, who charged towards Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan lunged forward and attacked first, throwing a sweeping leg kick. In an instant, four or five men in black trench coats were sent flying, and the crowd was in disarray!
The surroundings were thrown into chaos, but these men in black trench coats were well-trained. They surrounded Chen Xuan, preparing to attack again.
But just then, a cold shout rang out: "Everyone, stop!"
Chen Xuan looked up and saw a young man in a Zhongshan suit standing at the entrance, his expression cold and his eyes filled with intense indifference.
"Lord Qianchou!"
Everyone stood in solemn respect, their eyes filled with fear.
"Come in with me."
Hun Qianchou said to Chen Xuan in a cold tone.
Of course, with a hint of arrogance.
After speaking, Hun Qianchou turned and walked into the courtyard behind the shop.
"Quite something, aren't you..."
Chen Xuan followed him and walked into the shop. He found that the shop was in disarray, indicating that a conflict had occurred. He went straight into the courtyard and found several figures standing there.
Li Er, though somewhat disheveled, had no serious injuries. His expression was dispirited, as if he was exhausted.
Opposite Li Er stood several people. Besides the Hun Qianchou in the Zhongshan suit, there were two others.
One was wearing a Feng Shui master's robe, and the other was wearing a Tang suit. Both were around forty years old.
"I am Hun Qingzhi, from the Hun family in the capital," the middle-aged man in the Tang suit said calmly.
"I am Chen Xuan."
Chen Xuan replied indifferently.
The Feng Shui master beside Hun Qingzhi shot a sharp glance at Chen Xuan, appraising him.
Chen...
"You are Li Er's friend, aren't you? As his friend, and having injured our people, you must be willing to duel with him." Hun Qingzhi said in a deep voice.
"What duel?"
Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.
Li Er slowly explained, "It's like this. I reached an agreement with the Hun family. It's a best-of-three series. If I win, the Hun family will no longer contend for the business license. If I lose, we will have to voluntarily hand over the business license."
This decision was made after Li Er's careful consideration, because the Hun family's influence was too great, and he was currently in a precarious situation. What could he use to contend with the Hun family?
This decision was actually beneficial to Li Er!
As for why the Hun family agreed, it was because they were worried that Li Er would rather break than bend and tear up the business license. If Li Er really tore up the business license, all their hopes would be dashed.
"I have already dueled with the Hun family once. One win and one loss. I am now too exhausted, I'm afraid..."
"Li Er, don't worry. Leave the rest to me."
Chen Xuan smiled faintly, reached for a chair, and motioned for Li Er to sit down.
Li Er hesitated for a moment before sitting down on the chair.
Chen Xuan turned around and looked at Hun Qingzhi, saying, "May I know what we will compete in for the third round?"
