Volume One, Chapter 14: Dare Threaten My Man?
Page 1/3
Mentioning Ning Yuelan caused Fang Mo’s brows to furrow immediately. Several sales assistants in the nearby bridal shop stole glances outside the door and whispered among themselves.
“Why is Chen Kaixuan here again? This is obviously Ning family property; what does it have to do with the Chen family?”
“Exactly, and Ning’s CEO has nothing to do with the Chen family’s eldest son. Why does Chen Kaixuan come to the mall every day, shop around, and not pay?”
Shoplifting every day? Fang Mo was no deaf man. Though the assistants spoke quietly, their words could be clearly heard in the quiet bridal shop.
“That man is just a scoundrel, spreading rumors about some ambiguous relationship between Ning’s CEO and their Chen eldest son. Even Ning’s patriarch hasn’t acknowledged it, but Chen Kaixuan goes around calling her his sister-in-law every day.”
“Too much, truly too much...”
“Shh, lower your voice. Do you want to die? What if Chen Kaixuan hears you? Be careful, that rogue might bully us.”
At that moment, the jewelry store manager smiled apologetically and pulled the assistants aside.
“Mr. Chen, it’s like this: Ning’s CEO’s husband is also at the mall today. Why don’t you discuss with him? As long as Mr. Fang agrees, you can take these pieces of jewelry today.”
“Mr. Fang?”
Chen Kaixuan looked visibly stunned. Obviously, he had not heard about Ning Yuelan being married.
The next moment, he exploded with rage.
“Are you fucking kidding me? Who in Jiangcheng dares to steal women from my brother?”
“Mr. Fang my ass! If you’ve got the guts, bring him out and have a fight with me. Let me see if I don’t crush him.”
Everyone else was provoking him like this, and if Fang Mo kept silent, he might as well become a ninja turtle.
Regardless of the clarity of his relationship with Sister Yuelan, they were undeniably husband and wife.
“I am Fang Mo, Ning Yuelan’s husband.”
The next moment, Fang Mo walked out of the bridal shop toward the jewelry store.
Seeing Fang Mo appear, the chubby jewelry store owner forced a bitter smile.
“Mr. Fang, sorry to disturb your mood. Under today’s circumstances, we can’t do anything. Ning’s CEO has said that Mr. Chen is not allowed to take anything from our store anymore...”
“You fat bastard, what are you babbling?” Chen Kaixuan glared.
As he approached, he finally got a clear look at Fang Mo’s appearance.
His face was shadowed, skin pale. Although Fang Mo was also fair-skinned, Chen Kaixuan’s pallor was hollow and frail, as if drained by debauchery.
“Kaixuan, brother, she just likes that piece of jewelry. I want it~”
At that moment, a young girl hooked her arm around Chen Kaixuan’s and coquettishly whimpered.
Hearing this, Chen Kaixuan smirked and unabashedly slapped her butt.
“Relax, as long as you like it, brother will get it for you.”
“You punk, where the hell did you spring from? Since when is Ning Yuelan your wife? Haven’t you heard of the Chen family’s ‘Twin Heroes’?”
“Do you realize the consequences of stealing a woman from my big brother Chen Kaige?”
Chen Kaixuan’s gaze fell on Fang Mo, then he launched into a volley of provocations.
Twin Heroes of the Chen family? Bear Brothers? Fang Mo raised an eyebrow.
“Sorry, I’ve never heard of the Chen family’s Twin Heroes.”
“Besides, if you want something from the jewelry store, swipe your card and pay. If you want credit, sign an IOU. It’s the 21st century—robbery is illegal!”
Chen Kaige’s expression changed drastically at these words.
Countless onlooking store assistants applauded Fang Mo inwardly; some onlookers even laughed aloud. They had long been annoyed by Chen Kaixuan’s arrogant and overbearing attitude.
Seeing Fang Mo remain calm, Chen Kaixuan, as a second-generation rich kid, narrowed his eyes and asked a few more questions.
“Are you from some noble family in Jiangcheng?”
“No.”
“Are you from some prestigious family in China?”
“No.”
“Are you a hidden influential figure on China’s wealthy list?”
“No.”
Chen Kaixuan was utterly enraged.

“None of that? So you’re just a loser!”
“Do you even know what my brother’s relationship with Ning Yuelan is? How dare you wade into this dirty business?”
“No idea.”
Fang Mo shook his head, genuinely clueless. The truth was, he hadn’t been in contact with Sister Yuelan for years—matters of high society weren’t something a regular person like him paid attention to.
“You know nothing, yet you meddle here?”
After clarifying Fang Mo’s background, Chen Kaixuan relaxed completely.
“Ning Yuelan and my brother’s marriage is a family alliance—a powerful union of two upper-class families. This has nothing to do with you. Get lost.”
No sooner had he spoken than several girls behind him sneered arrogantly.
“Nowadays, you find all sorts of strays, and Ning’s CEO throws them a bone to treat them like dogs wagging their tails, thinking they own the Ning family.”
“Exactly, it’s a waste of breath talking to a loser like that.”
“Kaixuan, hurry and grab the jewelry; I’ve got a date for afternoon tea. I told them I’d wear the jewelry you gave me today. You won’t break your promise, will you?”
Chen Kaixuan grinned smugly.
“Of course not!”
“Fatso, wrap it up quickly.”
Family alliance? A fleeting discomfort flashed in Fang Mo’s mind, so he didn’t respond immediately after hearing Chen Kaixuan’s words.
Could Sister Yuelan still have a marriage contract? But judging by Ning’s patriarch’s reaction yesterday, that didn’t seem likely.
Could it be arranged by Ning’s father?
“Mr. Fang, you see...” The chubby jewelry owner was uncertain, so he pulled on Fang Mo’s collar with a forced smile.
“Call the police.”
Fang Mo returned to reality and raised his eyes slightly.
“No matter what the future relationship between Sister Yuelan and your brother is, she is my wife now. Since she instructed me before, you won’t be taking a single piece of jewelry without paying today.”
Chen Kaixuan’s proud smile froze instantly.
If this escalated to the police, he would definitely lose out.
He glared at the young man with a cold face.
“Are you deliberately disrespecting me today?”
Fang Mo wore an expression that seemed to say, “What can you do about it?”
“Hmm.”
Chen Kaixuan gritted his teeth.
“Fine, kid, I’ve got you on my list. Just wait—when my brother comes back, he’ll deal with you.”
With that, Chen Kaixuan stomped off angrily toward another direction, muttering curses.
“I’m calling my brother right now. That fiancée of his is a slut who sleeps with everyone. That so-called business goddess? More like a woman for all men.”
Boom—
At these words, Fang Mo’s expression darkened.
“Stop right there!”
Chen Kaixuan halted, sneering.
“What? Changed your mind? Afraid my brother will come for revenge? Too late—you’re finished. When my brother returns, you’ll be the one in trouble.”
Finished?
Sorry, today it’s you who’s finished.
Fang Mo said calmly.
“I only said you can’t take the jewelry, I didn’t say you can leave. Call security and have these troublemakers restrained.”
Troublemakers? Chen Kaixuan’s face stiffened.
The girls behind him turned pale instantly, their faces full of doubt and fear.
“Kaixuan, what’s going on?”
“What are you doing? Kaixuan is the second son of the Chen family in Jiangcheng.”
“What should we do, Kaixuan?”
Chen Kaixuan casually reassured them, then clenched his teeth and stared hard at Fang Mo.
“You’re bold, relying on Ning Yuelan like a shield. Wait until my brother gets back; I’ll make him savage Ning Yuelan to avenge me.”

“I’ll even have my brother record a video and post it online so everyone can see what a slut Ning Yuelan really is...”
Slap—
Before he could finish, Fang Mo suddenly appeared in front of Chen Kaixuan.
One slap landed, nearly knocking out three of Chen’s teeth.
After all, Grandfather was a military man, and Fang Mo had been trained in some basic fighting skills since childhood.
While not enough for a master, against the debauched Chen Kaixuan, it was a complete domination.
“You dare hit me?”
Chen Kaixuan held his cheek, stunned.
Fang Mo’s face was cold.
“You humiliated my wife and insulted me. That’s the mildest thing you’ve done.”
“Now, apologize to Sister Yuelan in front of everyone, or else...”
Fang Mo flicked his wrist, exuding an unyielding aura.
“I’ll hit you again!”
The flashy girls behind Chen Kaixuan immediately voiced their outrage.
“Kid, you’re dead meat. You’re in trouble now. Chen is not someone you can mess with.”
“Yeah, yeah, if you dare hit Chen, even Ning’s CEO won’t protect you.”
“How dare you threaten Chen? You’re asking for death.”
They were all furious—today they failed to get free jewelry and lost face. Naturally, they disliked Fang Mo.
Chen Kaixuan gritted his teeth and spat blood-tinged saliva at Fang Mo.
“You’re mad about Ning Yuelan? No matter how angry you get, the outcome won’t change. My brother will ravage Ning Yuelan. The slap you gave me today, you’ll pay for through Ning Yuelan tomorrow...”
“I’ll invite you to watch nicely then.”
Fang Mo felt a tightness in his chest, his eyes narrowing dangerously.
The next moment, the security guards couldn’t stop him.
The youth grabbed Chen Kaixuan by the neck and started delivering a rapid series of blows.
Slap—
“Apologize! And you start messing around here?”
Slap—
“No manners? No respect for others?”
Slap—
“Someone who buys but doesn’t pay dares to call himself a rich heir?”
Slap—
“Don’t understand the law? Don’t know that my marriage with Ning Yuelan is legally protected?”
Slap—
“Do you respect the law? Do you respect your wife’s husband?”
Slap after slap, Chen Kaixuan’s face was beaten into a bloody mess.
Fear flickered in his eyes. He hadn’t expected this reckless youth to not only defy threats but to keep fighting.
Chen Kaixuan staggered back several steps, nearly falling, muttering while pointing at Fang Mo.
“Crazy, Ning Yuelan’s dog has gone mad. If Ning Yuelan doesn’t apologize to me today, I won’t back down!”
“I want to see if Ning Yuelan will protect you.”
Thud, thud, thud, thud—
At that moment, the crisp sound of high heels striking the floor echoed.
A tall, imposing figure radiating piercing coldness appeared directly in front of Fang Mo, without hesitation.
Slap—
The woman raised her delicate hand and delivered a sharp slap.
“What do you think you are? You have the nerve to ask Ning Yuelan to apologize?”
“How dare you threaten my man... Ha! If you have the guts, come fight the Ning family. It’ll be a fight to the death.”
