Chapter 3 He Doesn't Deserve You

All the guests' eyes swished at once and focused on the Shen family.

The expression on everyone's face was like seeing a ghost, all of them thought that there was something wrong with their ears.

"Who is this man?"

"Lei Family's place, how dare he pick a quarrel?"

"Could he be a ex-boyfriend of the bride-to-be?"

"He opposes an engagement in public, doesn’t he want a bride-snatching?"

For a time, countless gossips had made up a hundred episodes of far-fetched TV series in the minds of everyone.

The look on the Lei family’s faces were very ugly.

Bo Lei froze for a moment and looked at Edward.

"Who are you?"

The beautiful cheongsam girl standing behind Bo suddenly stepped forward and shouted hesitantly.

"Brother?"

Edward nodded and looked at the young girl who appeared like a summer lotus flower. He couldn't help but recall the childhood playing moments with his sister.

"Menghan, don't stand there, don't marry him if you don't want to."

The audience exploded with a loud noise. One of Lei's errand boys hurriedly walked to Bo and whispered to report Edward’s identity.

Bo's eyes became extremely wicked. He beckoned some of his subordinates to follow him to the table of the Shen Family, and looked at Edward with contempt.

"The adopted son of the Shen family? I remember that our Lei family didn't invite you to the engagement banquet. How did you get in?"

"I bring a gift to my sister’s engagement party, of course I can come in."

The corner of Bo's mouth raised and his face was full of sarcasm.

"Give it up. I heard that you were a soldier and just returned from the field. I’m afraid you haven’t find a job with a salary of 2000 yuan, haven’t you? Bring a gift? You can save your 2000 yuan to order some takeaways. Today is a my happy day. I don't want to make any troubles. How many gifts you have brought, I will return you ten times. It is enough for you to rent a house to work. Go away, and don't ever come to Lei Family to climb food chain again!"

Aunt Mei Shen, seeing Bo coming, quickly piled a smile on her face and stood up, twisting the bucket waist to flatter.

"Master Lei, you are really a broad-minded man! Edward was a brat who had been out of the line since he was young. He was just suddenly confused. Our Shen Family and he is not related by blood."

"Look at Menghan, how well-behaved and beautiful! Such a good girl will no doubt make a good wife and a good mother once you get married soon. As her good aunt, let me tell you, there is no better in-law than you."

Menghan, standing besides Bo, looked exquisitely curvy, with pure short hair on her shoulder coupled with a cheongsam in the style of old times, which was more refreshing and refined.

Bo looked his fiance up and down several times, the eroticism in his eyes was unconcealed.

Menghan's eyes were red, avoiding Bo’s aggressive gaze with a desperate expression.

Edward sat there still, calmly meeting his sister's farewell eyes.

"Menghan, come here."

"Brother."

"Trust me."

"Brother! I beg you, don't interfere! I’ve decided, I will marry him, otherwise, our Shen Family will be finished and our father will be over! Those debt collectors will kill dad."

Edward’s adoptive father Dong Shen and adoptive mother Yurong Wu sighed deeply. They couldn’t lift their head, tears were also flashing in their eyes. They didn’t thought things would go so wrong that their daughter had to sacrifice her happiness to save the whole family.

Seeing the powerlessness of the Shen, Bo’s expression was proud, and his tone was arrogant. He turned towards his future father-in-law.

"Don't worry, after your daughter marries me, your Shen family can stand up again. I will arrange a warehouse manager job for you and a canteen logistics job for your wife, then you can work for Lei family and live a decent life in Ancheng City."

"With our Lei Family as the backstage, who can dare to bully you? But you also have to be clear, Lei family can promote some and can also easily destroy some."

Bo deliberately glanced at Edward.

"Don't ruin the good situation because of some mentally disabled not-blood-related wild seeds. After all, if Lei Family wants to make a person disappear in Ancheng, it's easy, he will disappear."

This was a naked threat.

A wealthy young master, who took a fancy to a beautiful girl from a desperate family and used local forces across lawful and unlawful to force her to marry him, was similar to a an indistinguishable women-robber in the feudal era.

Edward glanced around, the shivering Menghan, the sorrow adoptive parents, the flattering aunt Mei Shen, and the threatening and fearless Bo Lei, turning his back, he said gently to Menghan in the eyes of everyone's doubts.

"Sister, you don't understand. Now I'm here, you don’t need to marry him any more. They are not worthy of you."

The guests were surprised at first, then in an uproar.

"What does this guy say?"

"The Lei Family is a big family in Ancheng City. This stinky boy wears a torn windbreaker and even smells cheap. He is actually not ashamed of himself!"

"He dares to pretend in front of Master Lei, deserve to be ruined!""This is a blatant provocation!" Bo’s errand boys shouted.

Bo's complexion changed, his eyes were no longer joking, but full of fierceness.

"Brat Chen, did you deliberately come here today to make troubles?"

Edward felt innocent. Why no one believed the truth.

Bo stretched out his hand, and three well-armed security guards stepped forward, and there was a faint trend to encircle Edward.

"Tie up this stinky boy and make him kneel down in front of me. I’m going to slap him a hundred times in public!"

Edward didn’t move an inch. He still sat on the chair with his legs crossed, casually grabbed a few melon seeds from the table and put them in his mouth for tasting. He didn’t pay attention to the three big men at all.

The security guards looked fierce. They exchanged glances, gave a soft roar, and rushed to Edward who was still sitting.

As the three big men were about to rush in front of Edward and the nearest guard with whiskers was about to grab his collar, Edward moved his lips and kept still.

Whew!

A very small black object suddenly shot out like a bullet, directly piercing the right ear of the security guard! Bah! The sound of cracked skin.

With a scream, the security guard with whiskers covering his right half of his face, wailed and fell to the ground, convulsing with pain as if he had been electrified.

The people nearby were all stunned. The two security accomplices left Edward alone and hurriedly stepped forward to help up the whiskers.

The blood ran down from his hand. His right ear, like being cut by a flying knife, was only half left, and half of his face was stained red with blood!

The cutting weapon was found by the sharp-eyed security guards. It was a slice of melon seed shell just finished! Time seemed to be at a standstill.

All the people widened their eyes and looked at Edward with incredible expressions. Even Menghan, who was weeping, also opened her mouth slightly and her delicate face looked confused.

Bo's original arrogant expression disappeared, and his eyes were staring out. He watched the howling men and half of his bloody ear on the ground and a drop of sweat trickled down from the young master’s forehead.

Edward said lightly, "Who said that he was going to slap me a hundred times?"

With a noise, everyone from the Lei Family who gathered around to watch the excitement took a step back, especially the two security guards who had just jumped out to catch Edward walked away from the crowd silently without taking care of their fellow guard.

Bo's arms were half raised, his mouth wide opened, and he remained in the same posture as before, not backing up.

Edward raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised."Didn’t though you were a tough guy..."

Before the words fell, Bo's body began to tremble and his teeth began to chatter.

Three seconds later, his legs softened and knelt on the ground with a thud, "I... I can't move my legs."

Edward slowly stood up from the chair, wiped his hands a little, and stepped directly on Bo's shoulder with one foot, using him as a stool!

Then, he made a public announcement.

"Excuse me, let me make a toast. First of all, I am the bride-to-be’s brother and I represent the Shen Family. Secondly, since Lei Family is not worthy of my sister, I announce here publicly that their marriage contract is canceled. In addition, the Shen Family will become the number one big family in Ancheng City within one month. As for the young master of Lei, he was disrespectful to me and my family as you can see, so I give Lei family a week notice of donating 30 million yuan to charity, otherwise, I will destroy their Lei family. Thirdly, since Bo has promised to pay me back ten times the gift money, as you wish, settle it by tomorrow. Mom, dad, sis, let's go home!"

With that, Edward took his sister Menghan's hand, took his adoptive parents, and walked away from the villa hall, with people daring not to stop them, and leaving the shocking guests and the paralyzed-out-of-fear Bo behind.

"Who is this Edward?"

"He said he would make the Shen family No. 1 in Ancheng in one month! How could this be possible?"

"The sky of Ancheng is going to change!"

"Is this... an equal match?"

"How could he threaten to destroy the Lei family in public!"

"What does he mean by donating money to charity?"

Just as everyone was gossiping and discussing, a Lei family's errand boy ran over from outside.

"Master! Master! Just now there was a sucker giving a luxury gift close to 10 million yuan!"
