Samsara Online

From the first moment that Xie Yao saw Shen Xinya she could not help but be curious about her. It was undoubtedly the first time she had met her, but somehow, Xie Yao felt that she knew her very well and also felt somehow connected to her. But what surprised Xie Yao the most was the closeness between this strange girl and Xie Feng.

It was sure for Xie Yao to say that from the time she met Xie Feng until the time her family adopted him, she was the person who knew him the best. Precisely because she knew him so well, she also knew who the people close to him were. The number of friends or people accepted by Xie Feng were simply too few, but Xie Yao was completely sure that she had never seen him being close to another woman.

To Xie Yao’s knowledge, the only woman Xie Feng was close to was Mu Wuying. So who was this unknown girl?

On the plane, Xie Yao was curious about her instead of rivalry. Although it was natural to feel some jealousy and rivalry, what Xie Yao thought the most was:

’Who is she? Why is she hiding her face? How did she and big brother Xie Feng know each other?’

But all her questions had no way to be answered at that moment. Now, two of those three questions were answered with a single action of the girl in front of her.

"Shen... Shen Xinya..."

Xie Yao muttered in surprise. She couldn’t believe that the person she looked up to, the most popular superstar of the moment, was actually right in front of her! What’s more, Shen Xinya and Xie Feng actually knew each other!

Involuntarily, Xie Yao looked at Xie Feng with a questioning look.

"Don’t look at me like that..." Xie Feng smiled helplessly as he pointed at Shen Xinya, "Actually, I met her a long time ago. It’s a bit complicated, I’ll explain when we’re more relaxed, okay?"

"I-It’s okay." Xie Yao nodded still somewhat surprised by the course of events.

"Hello! You are Xie Yao right?" Shen Xinya extended her right hand with a friendly smile as she stared at Xie Yao.

"Yes... Yes, my name is Xie Yao. I am Xie Feng’s younger sister." Xie Yao hesitated for a moment before finally extending her hand and greeting Shen Xinya as well.

"Younger sister huh..." Shen Xinya, still holding her hand close to Xie Yao’s, narrowed her eyes slightly and continued, "Although you and him are not related by blood, right?"

Shen Xinya’s words clearly had a deep meaning in them, so much that the surprise Xie Yao felt at facing the girl she admired disappeared completely.

With a small smile and a strange shine in her eyes, Xie Yao nodded without hesitation and said in a joking tone, "That’s right. We have no blood relation so we can get married and even have babies without any problems hehe..."

Xie Yao’s words were so sharp that they left Xie Feng stupefied. He had no idea what was wrong with her!

’Where is my angelic Yaoyao!’ Xie Feng wanted to cry but had no tears. Now things had gotten out of hand... Completely out of control.

"Mmm...Interesting" The smile on Shen Xinya’s face froze slightly as she heard the girl’s response in front of her. With a slightly cold look, she looked Xie Yao straight in the eyes.

But how could Xie Yao be cowed? She held her gaze high and stared at the superstar in front of her. Even if it was the person she looked up to, Xie Yao was not going to give in no matter what!

Thus, both women still holding each other’s hands stared at each other in silence.

Gu Pojun was shocked as he observed the scene in front of him. He was very clear about the number of suitors Shen Xinya had pursued her. Just in Beijing itself, the number of young masters who were in love with Shen Xinya’s beauty and heavenly attitude was in the hundreds, if not thousands! However, that same woman was now silently fighting against another woman for a man’s favor!

Even Gu Pojun couldn’t help but give Xie Feng a look of envy, which earned him a sharp pinch from his wife... Gu Pojun’s mouth twitched a couple of times and he didn’t dare to look anymore.

On the other hand, Fang Yanran seemed to look at the unfolding scene differently. Due to the fact that she was not involved in government and national secrets, Fang Yanran did not know anything about Xie Feng. But even though today was the first time she had met Xie Feng, she could not help but think that he was a splendid young man.

Fang Yanran was very clear that although Gu Qianxue was already affianced to the next patriarch and current heir of the Nangong Family, Nangong Lei, she did not love him. At most, all Gu Qianxue felt in the past for him was a good impression and that was all. Fang Yanran also knew that an engagement between the Nangong Family and the Gu Family would increase the family forces even more... But what Fang Yanran cared about was her daughter’s security and feelings.

Strength? Although Fang Yanran didn’t know much, she did know that the terrorists Xie Feng apprehended possessed weapons of peak world technology, which was proof enough for her. As for feelings...

Seeing how close Gu Qianxue was to Xie Feng, even when her own mother was there, Fang Yanran had her own conclusions about it...

That was why seeing two top grade beauties fighting for Xie Feng, Fang Yanran worried about her daughter.

While everyone had different thoughts, Xie Feng felt like he was walking on broken glass. How did things develop in this direction!? Although he expected something like this, Xie Feng did not expect that the reaction from both sides would be so strong! Even if Xie Yao and Shen Xinya were just staring at each other in silence, the temperature of the place seemed to rise several degrees as if there was a volcano about to erupt!

"Xinya!"

Fortunately for Xie Feng, it seemed that today he had a new guardian angel.

Hearing Yin Yue’s little cry, Shen Xinya blinked and her eyes widened as if she was shocked. Then, embarrassed, she blushed slightly and let go of Xie Yao’s hand slowly.

"I-I see. Nice to meet you..." Since she had just did something embarrassing in public and almost burst out her true personality, Shen Xinya was so embarrassed that her voice wavered.

"It is also a pleasure for me to meet you. I think we will have many opportunities to meet from now on right?" Xie Yao smiled slightly.

Although Shen Xinya withdrew her gaze first, Xie Yao did not believe that this mini silent battle was her victory. After all, the only reason Shen Xinya withdrew was because of Yin Yue, otherwise it was hard to tell how things would unfold.

"Don’t doubt it." Shen Xinya smiled and looked at Xie Feng for a moment before looking at Xie Yao again and said, "We’ll definitely be seeing a lot of each other from now on. I’ll have to ask you to take care of me."

How could Xie Yao not understand the meaning contained in Shen Xinya’s words? With a small smile, Xie Yao nodded:

"Take care of me too."

Shen Xinya simply smiled and said nothing more.

Although the talk between the two women seemed very polite and cordial on the surface, anyone who wasn’t a complete fool could notice the precaution between them.

Seeing that both beauties were silent, a strange silent atmosphere surrounded the place; so much so that even the helicopter pilot sensed that something was wrong in that place.

Cough!

"Well, since we all introduced ourselves properly, let’s board the helicopter. It’s almost 9 o’clock at night, we’d better have dinner."

Gu Pojun coughed and smiled as he invited everyone to his house for dinner.

Xie Feng felt the urge to run and hug the man in front of him and shout out loud ’Father-in-law!’. Who would have thought that this annoying old man would actually help him in this situation!

"We appreciate Lord Gu’s invitation very much, however we-"

"Okay, since Uncle Gu went to the bother of inviting us, it would be rude of us to refuse. We’ll be bothering you this time."

Just as Yin Yue shook her head and was about to refuse, Shen Xinya stopped her with a glance and abruptly interrupted her words.

"Hahaha... Of course you are no bother. Come on, all aboard!"

Gu Pojun laughed out loud and gave Xie Feng a mocking look, which made Xie Feng lose the good impression he had just earned. Then, Gu Pojun took his wife’s hand.

Unfortunately for him, his wife Fang Yanran hit his hand and went to take Gu Qianxue’s hand while looking at him coldly.

This time it was Xie Feng’s turn to look at him with a mocking smile, which made Gu Pojun feel the need to punch him in the face.

The helicopter was large enough to easily accommodate up to twelve people, so there was no problem for all of them to board. With a strange atmosphere, they all boarded the helicopter, which soon took off into the skies in the direction of the city center.

As Xie Feng looked out the helicopter window at the military base being left behind and finally saw the lights of the city, the tiny cars driving through the winding night streets, a thought flashed in his mind.

’Finally, after so much time I have returned to this city.’

As to whether this would be a relaxing trip or not, Xie Feng did not know.
