Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny - Chapter 27

Who exactly was this man? Why did he possess such a commanding vigor?

Han Yao’s heart was filled with fear.

“Sister Han, I have told you before that the reason I wanted to become a celebrity was so I could find the missing Xue An. Now that he is back, I am happy. It doesn’t matter if I’m a star or not. I’m fine even if I can’t be one,” Fan MengXue said.

Han Yao felt her body trembling with rage. She looked at Fan MengXue with great disbelief.

“Do you know have any idea what you’re talking about? Your acting career has just taken off. What awaits you at the front are endless flowers and applause. Yet you want to back out?”

Fan MengXue lowered her head and said nothing.

Upon seeing how Fan MengXue looked, Han Yao could not help but bite her tongue. Then she mustered up her courage and said to Xue An, “Mr. Xue, I’m so sorry. I’ll take back what I said just now. But please, I hope you understand that, after all, I’ve watched MengXue grow up. Her choice to withdraw now is such a disappointment.”

Xue An did not even bother to utter a single word.

Han Yao went on to say, “I believe that you are definitely not just an ordinary man. But I think a famous and successful MengXue will be a better partner for you, compared to a woman who only knows how to blindly follow you around.”

“What are you trying to say by telling me these things?” Xue An asked nonchalantly.

“I hope you can change her mind,” Han Yao replied.

“Remember what I said earlier. MengXue is a living person. She can make her own decisions and I will support her in whatever she wants to do.”

Han Yao looked towards Fan MengXue again. “MengXue, I hope you can give this decision some serious consideration. It just so happens that Steven will be coming to Beijiang within the next two days. If you’ve figured things out well, I can take you to see him.”

Fan MengXue did not say anything.

Han Yao looked at Xue An and was about to say something, but on second thought, she stopped herself. Without another word, she simply turned around and left.

Xue An went upstairs to put the two little girls to bed. When he returned, Fan MengXue asked in a trembling voice, “Xue An, do you think I should go?”

Xue An smiled reassuringly. “Like I’ve said just now, as we live our lives, there’s nothing more than just following our hearts in whatever we do. If you think that you like it, just do it. If you don’t like it, then don’t. It’s that simple!”

“But…” Fan MengXue was struggling to make up her mind.

She did not want to leave Xue An.

However, she also knew very well that the way Xue An treated her cannot exactly be considered as fondness.

And there was also the matter of An Yan, whom she had never even met before, standing in between their relationship.

This made her feel even less confident.

If she could become a world-renowned star, maybe… it would increase the likelihood of Xue An accepting her.

With these thoughts in her head, Fan MengXue spent the night in restless turmoil.

Finally.

The day of the auction was here.

Qin Yu had driven over very early in the day to pick up Xue An.

When she saw that Xue An was still dressed in his typical set of clothes, she could not help but frown in disapproval.

“Mr. Xue, don’t you have any other clothes?”

Xue An shook his head. “What’s wrong with my clothes? Do I have to change into a different outfit just to attend an auction?”

“That’s not really necessary. But this is an assembly of many businessmen and merchants in Beijiang after all. It’s probably better if you and your daughters were dressed more formally.”

Xue An made no comments.

But the moment the two little girls heard that they would be having new clothes to wear, they cheered with joy.

Women, no matter how young, would still be women.

So long as it was a woman, she would naturally not say no to having new clothes.

Xue An was originally unconcerned about this, but for the sake of his two daughters, he considered the options.

On the other hand, Fan MengXue had nothing to worry about. Although she had returned to Beijiang in a hurry, she had brought more than enough clothes with her.

Right now, Fan MengXue was wearing a cheongsam of excellent workmanship, which showed her graceful demeanor without seeming arrogant or overbearing.

Qin Yu personally drove her car and took Xue An and company to the most upmarket retail club in Beijiang city, Yinlong Commercial Building.

This was also an industrial property of the Longtai Group.

Qin Yu first led Xue An over to the men’s apparel department and started picking out clothes. “Now that we are short of time, we can only choose some ready-made clothes first. Later on, when we have time, we’ll find an experienced master to tailor-make your clothes.”

Soon, Fan MengXue and Qin Yu were done with their respective selection of clothes for Xue An.

Meanwhile, many salesladies in the men’s apparel department were quietly casting their eyes over, trying to get a better look without drawing attention.

After all, this was not a scene that you see every day.

These two great beauties, whether in appearance or temperament, would definitely fetch a score of at least nine-point. Yet they were both vying for the task of choosing clothes for a man who was dressed in such a rustic style.

What was the relationship between them?

Could the be siblings? Although it does not seem like it.

Are they lovers?

Was there any couple that comprised one man and two women?

Or could it be a couple with a third party involved?

The salesladies were gossiping and speculating, trying to guess what the link between these three individuals were.

“Try these first,” Fan MengXue whispered.

Xue An entered the fitting room and quickly changed into a new outfit.

When he walked out of the fitting room, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Xue An was already a handsome man, but coupled with his three thousand years of cultivation, he exuded an aura that was simply indescribable.

Be it gestures, expressions, or behavior, he was like an emperor that no one would dare show contempt to.

But Xue An’s old-fashioned clothes proved to be quite a good disguise.

Now that he has changed into a set of presentable clothes, the golden ratio of his body was made so clearly visible for all to see. This made many salesladies blush with increased heart rates, and they could not help but lower their heads while quietly gasping in amazement.

This man’s figure was simply divine!

Qin Yu also felt her heart beating faster when she looked at him. In fact, she had to force herself to tear her gaze away and did not dare to look at him any longer.

Fan MengXue, on the other hand, openly showed how infatuated she was through the look in her eyes.

“Wow, Papa is so handsome,” Xue Xiang giggled and shouted out loud.

“Sister, what does handsome mean?” Xue Nian asked.

Xue Xiang scrunched her adorable little nose and knocked on Xue Nian’s little head. Then she said, “I already asked you to eat less, but you just won’t listen. Handsome means good-looking!”

“Oh! Papa, you’re so good-looking!” Xue Nian said while laughing.

But what the two little girls called him was a great shock for many of the salesladies.

This man already had kids?

What a pity!

“MengXue and I will take these two little girls to pick out their clothes. Do you want to come along?” Qin Yu asked.

Xue An shook his head. He simply did not fancy the thought of shopping with women.

Even an immortal lord would not be able to bear the pressures of shopping with women.

“Then you can wait here for a while.”

Qin Yu brought Xue Xiang and Xue Nian away.

Xue An sat down on the sofa and was just about to take a moment of respite.

He heard a cloyingly sweet voice. “Hubby, this outfit seems good. It fits you very well. You should go and put it on.”

Xue An looked up and saw a man with a beer-belly walking over. By his side was a young and pretty lady who was leaning close to him.

The sweet voice belonged to this particular lady. Having heard what she said, this man with a protruding beer-belly replied proudly: “Okay. Well, that was easy. Come on, bring me the set of clothes.”

A saleslady hurried up to them and apologized. “I’m sorry, sir. We have run out of this design. Would you like to take a look at something else?”

The beer-bellied man’s expression darkened. And that young lady was also full of dissatisfaction as she pointed at Xue An. “How is it sold out? He’s wearing it, isn’t he?”

“Sir, he’s already put it on.”

“So what if he has? I want to buy what I like. Get him to take it off!” The woman was extremely rude and unreasonable.
