"Indeed, it’s me," Lin Kuang said calmly, looking at the two men.

"Please wait a moment. I’ll go notify the Commander immediately," one of them replied hurriedly. After all, Lin Kuang’s name was renowned, and they knew exactly what kind of man he was.

When Xu Chengjun learned that Lin Kuang had arrived, he nearly passed out from fury. I’m already in a foul mood, and now the very person who caused it has the nerve to show up!

"That brat actually dares to come here? Is he bullying the Xu Family, thinking we have no one to stand against him?! Tell him to get his ass in here!" Xu Chengjun said, his expression dark.

Hearing this, the soldier grimaced. Tell him to get his ass in here? How could I possibly dare say that?

With that thought in mind, the man returned to the main gate. He looked at Lin Kuang with an awkward expression and said, "Mr. Lin, the Commander asks you to come in."

Upon hearing this, Lin Kuang nodded and walked into the Xu Family residence with Yao Wenwen.

Under the soldier’s guidance, Lin Kuang and Yao Wenwen arrived at Xu Chengjun’s study.

Seeing Lin Kuang, Xu Chengjun looked at him, his expression foul. "You brat! You still dare to come here? Are you trying to bully my Xu Family, thinking we have no one to oppose you?!"

Lin Kuang looked at Xu Chengjun calmly. "Uncle Xu, you’ve misunderstood. I have no intention of bullying anyone. It’s just that Yingying and I are truly in love. You can try to stop us, but surely you don’t need to put her under house arrest?"

"Oh? Truly in love? Are you sure you’re not just using Yingying to gain the Xu Family’s support? Besides, how I discipline my own daughter is none of your business! What right do you have to stop me? I haven’t even settled the score with you, and you still dare to show up. Lin Kuang, you’re incredibly audacious!" Xu Chengjun spat, his gaze filled with anger.

"Uncle Xu, you’ve misunderstood. I am not using Yingying. Besides, I would never stoop to doing something like that! As for stopping you... I believe that if a man can’t even protect his own woman, can he still call himself a man?"

Lin Kuang looked at Xu Chengjun and spoke calmly, but his heart was simmering with rage. What does he take me for? Does he think I, Lin Kuang, am some shameless villain? If it weren’t for the fact that Xu Chengjun was Xu Yingying’s father, Lin Kuang would have slapped him already.

Hearing Lin Kuang’s words, Xu Chengjun’s expression turned extremely grim. "Lin Kuang, get out of here! The Xu Family doesn’t welcome you! Scram!" Xu Chengjun roared. The fact that Lin Kuang had slept with his daughter was already infuriating enough, but now, hearing Lin Kuang repeatedly refer to himself as Yingying’s man pushed Xu Chengjun to the absolute brink of rage.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang spoke again. "Uncle Xu, if you don’t restore Yingying’s freedom, I’m not leaving," he said earnestly, looking at Xu Chengjun.

At his words, Xu Chengjun laughed with rage. "Haha, Lin Kuang, don’t be so full of yourself. This is the Xu Family, not your Lin Family! Yingying is my daughter. I’ll do with her as I please, and it has nothing to do with you! Now, get out of my sight! Immediately!" Xu Chengjun said angrily, his expression growing even fouler.

"Fine. Since you won’t let Yingying out, I’ll take her with me!"

Saying this, Lin Kuang turned and strode into the courtyard. "Yingying, where are you? I’m here to take you away!" he shouted.

Xu Chengjun’s whole body trembled with rage. This brat shows me absolutely no respect!

"Lin Kuang, are you provoking the Xu Family? Are you testing my limits?!" Xu Chengjun roared, following him out.

Hearing the two of them shouting, the men in the courtyard could only grimace. After all, they couldn’t afford to provoke either one.

"No," Lin Kuang said calmly. "I’m her man, and I won’t let her be wronged."

"Fine. Fine! Very good! Men!" Xu Chengjun roared, no longer able to hold back.

In an instant, more than a dozen men appeared before Xu Chengjun.

"Get him out of here!" Xu Chengjun ordered, looking at his men with a dark expression.

Hearing the order, his subordinates grimaced. That’s Lin Kuang, Old Master Lin’s grandson! Damn it, who would dare lay a hand on him? However, they were under Xu Chengjun’s command and had no choice but to act, putting them in a very awkward position.

Lin Kuang paid them no attention, continuing to shout Xu Yingying’s name in the courtyard.

At that moment, Xu Yingying walked out of her room, but the two guards at the door immediately blocked her path.

"Lin Kuang, I’m here!" Xu Yingying called out, her eyes red with tears. She had never expected things to escalate this far. Her heart was a swirl of complicated emotions, and she felt terribly sad.

Seeing Xu Yingying emerge from the room, Lin Kuang’s eyes lit up, and he immediately headed toward her.

How could two guards possibly stop Lin Kuang? He dispatched them with ease, knocking them to the ground before pulling Xu Yingying into his arms.

"Yingying," Lin Kuang said, his voice laced with heartache as he looked at her weeping face. "Didn’t I tell you not to do this?"

"I... I wanted to help you. I thought this was the only way," Xu Yingying sobbed, leaning into his embrace.

"Alright, stop crying now. It’s okay, I’ll handle everything. There, there," Lin Kuang said softly, reaching out to wipe the tears from her pretty face.

Witnessing this scene, Xu Chengjun felt like he was about to explode. This is absolutely intolerable!

"What are you all looking at? Move it, you bastards! Attack him!" Xu Chengjun yelled furiously at his men.

At his command, the dozen or so subordinates grimaced. With a sense of helplessness, they moved to surround Lin Kuang and Xu Yingying.

At this point, Yao Wenwen also walked over, her goal clear: to protect her best friend, Xu Yingying.

"Yao Wenwen, protect Yingying. Leave the rest to me," Lin Kuang said calmly.

Yao Wenwen nodded. "I will."

"Lin Kuang, don’t hurt them," Xu Yingying said hurriedly.

"Don’t worry, Yingying. I know what I’m doing." With that, Lin Kuang took a step forward.

Seeing this, the Xu family’s men hesitated. They were caught in an awkward position, wanting to attack yet not daring to.

"Damn it! If you don’t make a move, I’ll have you all shot!" Xu Chengjun shouted again, his face livid, his fury reaching its absolute peak.

Hearing Xu Chengjun’s roar again, the Xu family’s men knew they had no choice left. They had to act.

"Mr. Lin, our apologies!" With that, the dozen men charged toward Lin Kuang.

These men were all military elites; their strength was not to be underestimated.

Lin Kuang didn’t dare to be careless. He activated the Open Door, Rest Gate, Life Gate, and Injury Gate—all Four Gates at once—and charged.

In an instant, Lin Kuang clashed with the group. With his formidable strength, men began to fall one after another. Lin Kuang held back from dealing any fatal blows, merely incapacitating them.
