Chapter 229
At this moment, a young man in his mid twenties walked out from the three-storey building on the side
of the road. He had bleached hair and a tattoo of a dragon’s head on his neck. "Xenia, you are back!"
The young man walked towards the motorbike with a smile and greeted her warmly. But then he
spotted Fade Chen, who was the driver, and his face fell. "Who are you? Why are you driving Xenia’s
motorbike? What’s your relationship to her?" Just as Fade was about to explain, Xenia, who was sitting
at the back, looked annoyed and said in a cold voice, "Brett, this is none of your business. Just leave!"
The young man called Brett, saw that Xenia Xu was clasping Fade on the waist with both hands. Her
body seemed to be pressing against Fade’s as well. Immediately his eyes turned red and he raised his
voice. He bellowed, "This is my business! You are my wife, how can you bring another man home."
Xenia yelled at him when she heard this, "Brett, you are spouting nonsense. We have no such
relationship. Please leave." "I won’t go! If you don’t give me a clear explanation regarding this
hooligan,both of you won’t be allowed to leave." Brett retorted. He started stretching his hands towards
Fade, attempting to drag him out from the motorbike. Fade commanded with an icy tone, "Leave us
now!" Then he pushed Brett away. The huge impact caused Brett to falter and take a few steps back.
He teetered, stumbled and fell down in the mud, with an embarrassed expression on his face. "Just
ignore him, Dr. Chen. Let’s go home!" Xenia said. After that, Fade continued to drive towards Xenia’s
home.In a short time, they arrived. Xenia’s mother, a woman in her forties, was at the door. She had
heard the commotion outside and came out to take a look. Seeing Xenia clasping Fade on the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmotorbike, she felt surprised Xenia noticed her mother’s expression and quickly came to her senses.
She released Fade’s waist and jumped down from the motorbike. She introduced him to her mother,
"Mother, this is Fade Chen, Dr. Chen. He is my colleague." "Dr. Chen?" her mother was shocked, and
then she spoke in excitement, "Is it the Dr. Chen that you mention quite frequently and who helped you
a lot?" "Yes, he is the one." Xenia nodded. Fade greeted her politely, "Nice to meet you, Auntie." "Nice
to meet you, Dr. Chen. Thank you for taking care of Xenia in the company. Thank you so much." Her
mother held Fade’s hand and she was clearly moved, gratitude etched on her face. At this moment,
Brett, who had gotten up, rushed over angry and shouted at Fade, "You stupid idiot, how dare you hit
me, I’ll kill you." As Brett rushed over, Xenia’s mother had a darkened expression on her face. She
immediately asked Xenia to bring Fade into the house. But Fade looked coldly at him and strode
forward to Brett. He grabbed Brett by the neck with one hand and lifted him up. He shouted coldly, "Did
you say you want to kill me?" Brett felt an unstoppable force surging towards him. His throat was being
stifled and strangled little by little, and breathing was starting to become difficult. He swung his hands
and feet in panic, struggling, and said, "Let me go, let me go!" Fade did not let him go, but he continued
to use force, which caused Brett’s cheeks to gradually turn red and even purple Brett started to feel a
sense of terror and dread. He could not breath, and it seemed like he was weakening. As the air was
being squeezed out of his lungs bit by bit, he felt his life flash before him. The shadow of death seemed
to envelope him, and fear overcame him. He had never experienced such a traumatic encounter in his
life, "I let go of me. I won’t dare, L. Brett spoke with tremendous difficulty. Fade snorted and threw Brett
down, who was choking and out of breath. He bellowed, "Leave now!" Brett fell to the ground,
massaging his neck and gasping for breath. He quickly scampered away, sprinting and crawling. He
didn’t dare remain any longer in the presence of Fade. After dealing with Brett, Fade turned around and
said with a smile, "Auntie, Xenia, let’s go in then!" Xenia’s mother could not help but look anxious after
witnessing this chain of events. She said, "Brett, he.." Xenia said, "Mother, let’s discuss this further
inside." The three of them proceeded to enter the house. Xenia’s mother quickly served tea to Fade,
treating him like a special guest He chatted with the both of them and finally got a clearer idea about
that Brett Han and who he was. Brett’s family had opened a quarry in town, and they made profits of
more than a million each year. They were the richest family in the village. Therefore, since young, Brett
had a silver spoon in his mouth and he lead a charmed life. He had become friends with many of the
gangsters in town, and he had a dubious reputation around the area. It was often difficult to avoid such
people,and this was the case for Xenia and her family as well. Around half a year ago, Xenia had
graduated from university and returned home. Brett noticed unexpectedly, that this average-looking girl
had transformed into a stunning beauty after her studies there. He became interested in her and he
started to pursue Xenia. Of course, Xenia did not agree to it. After refusing him, she immediately went
to work in the city and never saw him again. She had assumed that this would no longer be an issue
since it was almost half a year ago. But Xenia did not expect that Brett would persist in his pursuit. In
the period of time while she was away, he continued to harass her mother, bringing up the idea of an
engagement between them. Xenia’s mother was aware of her daughter’s feelings, so she didn’t

engaged. He even bragged in front of his hooligan friends that he had slept with Xenia. Due to all these
gossip and lies that he was spewing, Xenia realized upon her return that all the villagers seemed to
have a very different view of her. Xenia was furious when she became aware of this situation. Her
immediate impulse was to discuss this matter with the Han family and resolve this issue. But her
mother was worried on behalf of Xenia, as she knew that offending the Han family was a bad idea.
Therefore she did not allow Xenia to go to them. Brett then became even more conceited and
audacious. He kept boasting to many people regarding the confirmation of their marriage and that the
ceremony would take place during the new year. He even alluded to their consummation and their
intimate relationship. Amidst such rumors, Xenia had brought Fade back to the village. He was another
young man in the picture, and they seemed close. This caused Brett to feel angry and humiliated,
therefore he wanted to cause some trouble for Fade. Realizing that Xenia and her mother were anxious
and upset over this matter, Fade thumped his chest. He said, "Auntie, don’t be upset, I will assist you in
this matter. In regards to Brett, I will find a solution to deal with him, so that he does not continue with
his slanderous remarks." Xenia’s eyes lit up instantly, and she looked gratefully at Fade. However, her
mother was a little worried that Fade might resort to violence or try some underhanded tactics. After all,
he had just forcefully grabbed Brett on the neck and tried to choke him, causing her to feel frightened.
"Doctor Chen, that Brett is not a good person. I know you mean well, but please don’t be impulsive!"
Fade noticed that Xenia’s mother was anxious, so he said with a smile, "Auntie, no worries. I won’t take
any action without prior consideration. We can resolve this issue in other ways. "Yes, it’s better not to
resort to violence. That would be ideal." Xenia’s mother nodded a few times in agreement..
