What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility!

“Xiao Yan is my fiancé,” said Nalan Yanran firmly to Ya Fei. The doubts in Ya Fei’s heart immediately dissipated.

Ah~ so that’s how it is.

Ya Fei narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.

She’s here to declare war with me, huh?

Immediately, Ya Fei replied with a calm tone.

“And then?”

!!!

Nalan Yanran had considered various possible responses from Ya Fei, but she never expected her to use such a knowingly rhetorical question to counter her. Nalan Yanran’s expression twisted slightly, caught off guard by Ya Fei’s act of feigning ignorance.

After all, she was still a young girl, and there was a stark contrast between her mentality and her way of dealing with people compared to Ya Fei, who had been navigating between major clans as a businesswoman.

There was a considerable gap in their level.

Facing this mature woman, Nalan Yanran couldn’t maintain her composure any longer and waited for Ya Fei with a hint of anger, making her intentions clearer.

“He is my fiancé, Nalan Yanran’s fiancé! The future son-in-law of the Nalan Clan! The husband of the future Sect Master of the Yun Lan Sect!”

“So, as the future successor of the Miteer Family, I sincerely hope that you show some self-restraint!”

Facing Nalan Yanran, who was on the verge of rage, Ya Fei maintained her calm demeanor, lightly touching her cheek with slender jade-like fingers, and spoke.

“So, why do you emphasize this point?”

Ya Fei appeared once again as if she didn’t understand, but then seemed to remember something.

“Speaking of which, the Yun Lan (Misty Cloud) Sect came to the Xiao Clan in great numbers not too long ago, and at the time, I was wondering what it was about,” Ya Fei paused and looked at Nalan Yanran with a slight smile. “Later, I heard from an acquaintance that the group was led by Elder Ge Ye of the Yun Lan (Misty Cloud) Sect, and the Young Sect Master of the sect was also among them. I was initially curious why the Yun Lan (Misty Cloud) Sect approached the Xiao Clan.”

As she spoke, Ya Fei raised an eyebrow lightly.

“If you are Xiao Yan’s fiancée, then I understand it to some extent.”

“The following is just my personal speculation, so please don’t take offense, Miss Nalan,” Ya Fei bent down slightly, leaning closer to Nalan Yanran’s ear, and spoke with her lips slightly moving.

“At that time, you were probably there to force the Xiao Clan to break off the engagement, right?”

!!!

Nalan Yanran’s heart trembled, and her expression became unpleasant.

As Ya Fei said, she had made such a big fuss when she came to the Xiao Clan precisely to forcefully pressure them into canceling the engagement between Xiao Yan and herself. This fact was known to anyone who was aware of the engagement.

And Ya Fei’s guess was not unfounded. Xiao Yan was widely known as a waste back then, and he was a world apart from Nalan Yanran, who had an immeasurable future as the proud daughter of heaven. It was only natural for anyone with a normal mindset to feel dissatisfied with having a waste as their life partner and consider breaking off the engagement.

Nalan Yanran took a step back abruptly, defending herself.

“I-I didn’t know that Xiao Yan was him! If I had known in advance, I would never have come to break off the engagement!!!”

‘What have I brought upon myself~’

Ya Fei chuckled softly.

Speculation was still just speculation, and as long as Nalan Yanran vehemently denied it, no one would take the matter of canceling the engagement seriously.

And now, Nalan Yanran’s words completely confirmed it. She had indeed come to the Xiao Clan with the intention of breaking off the engagement.

Then, Ya Fei furrowed her brows lightly.

According to Nalan Yanran’s words, she had already known Xiao Yan before coming to the Xiao Clan?

Setting aside this doubt for now, Ya Fei held her jade-like arm and looked at Nalan Yanran with a seductive smile.

“Miss Nalan, after being involved in family affairs for so many years, I’ve learned the most important thing.”
