Samsara Online
chapter-238

Yin Yue stared at the development of events with her eyes wide open. What on earth? Here was a man who was asking the most beautiful woman on an entire continent, a superstar with millions of fans willing to do anything for her, to be a woman in his harem? If it were someone else, Yin Yue could recommend a good asylum for him to lock himself up.... But, she didn't know how all this was going to end.

Yin Yue knew very well that although Shen Xinya was playful and even mischievous, she longed for love more than anyone else. Ever since she was little she was like that. Shen Xinya always seemed lost in the clouds, lost in her fantasies, as if she was not a person of this world.

It was not only Yin Yue who was surprised; Xie Yao was surprised as well. However, more than surprise at Xie Feng's unexpected words, she felt joy. Normally, if a beautiful and economically well-off woman like Xie Yao heard her beloved proposing to another woman, she would probably burst into fiery anger. But Xie Yao was different.

Xie Feng stopped doing many things he would probably want to do and conversely did other things he didn't need to do, all for her benefit. For example, with Xie Feng's power and intelligence, he didn't need to go to college.... However, since Xie Yao wanted to study, he accompanied her. This was not all, Xie Feng had left behind many things for Xie Yao's happiness that even without him saying so, she knew and remembered silently. Therefore, seeing that for the first time in so long he was acting a little selfishly again, she felt so happy that she could not help but smile.

On the other hand, Gu Qianxue's reaction was the calmest. From her point of view, a person as powerful as Xie Feng had more responsibilities, but in return, he also had the right to enjoy more than the rest. Since he wished to be with a woman, she would support him wholeheartedly. Above all, Gu Qianxue was clear that the person with the most right to act jealous here was Xie Yao; after all, Xie Yao was Xie Feng's official lover. It was already very kind of her not to object to sharing him.

Shen Xinya's eyes were wide open and a strange sparkle flickered in them constantly. Suddenly, she covered her mouth and her shoulders began to shake slowly as she laughed: "Pff- Hehehe~ Why are you acting so serious? Just kidding, just kidding!" she gave Xie Feng a small punch on the shoulder and continued, "God, I just wanted to make things difficult for you since you didn't help me earlier.... But who would have thought you'd take it so seriously!"

After saying that, Shen Xinya drank the rest of the juice left in her glass and started a conversation with Xie Yao.

Xie Feng blinked in confusion and his mind went blank. Was this really a joke? Then why didn't it seem to be? But, seeing Shen Xinya acting normally, he said nothing and shrugged his shoulders.... He was already serious, whether she took it as a joke or not was not up to him.

However, although Shen Xinya's acting might have fooled everyone, Yin Yue just stared at her and her mouth opened several times as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she just sighed and shook her head. She also drank the rest of the wine in her glass in one gulp.

Yao Mei's birthday banquet proceeded without apparent problems and it had already been almost two hours since it started.

Luxury cars continued to arrive one after another and men of all ages accompanied by beautiful women tirelessly entered the main hall. Each of the people able to enter this place had enough power to cause a small earthquake in the financial or political world of the country, so each of them were proud and highly respected figures. But even then, they all smiled politely, exchanged greetings and business cards.

Looking at the atmosphere, it seemed more like a gathering for the big shots than a birthday party. After all, it was impossible for these smart and talented men and women to miss the opportunity to create an important network of contacts. It was well known that in the world of business and politics, contacts were even more important than money itself since you never knew when you would need an allied hand.

Gu Qianxue's parents had also arrived and were currently chatting with members of other important families. For the first time in his life, Gu Pojun did not feel worried about his daughter's safety and a smile from ear to ear adorned his face.

A middle-aged couple greeted an important foreign investor and excused themselves. The man was handsome and the woman beautiful despite their ages. These two were Yao Xiyu and Beiming Fei, the two masters of this large manor.

Maintaining an elegant smile, Beiming Fei held onto her husband's arm without arousing suspicion and whispered, "Xiyu, what's wrong with little Mei? Why isn't she here yet?"

Yao Xiyu frowned and a look of regret flickered across his eyes before returning to normal and explaining, "Don't worry. You know her too. She doesn't really appreciate these events.... She'll probably come down in a while."

Although Beiming Fei felt something strange, she finally nodded and sighed, "I just hope that girl comes down before the guests start presenting their gifts.... Otherwise it would be disrespectful to everyone..."

Yao Xiyu was no longer listening to his wife chatting. His mind was racing a thousand miles per hour, trying to find a solution to the big problem he was currently facing.

Today, Yao Xiyu looked for the most powerful person in the entire Yao Family and begged to save his daughter Yao Mei's life. To say that this person possessed the power of a god was not exaggerated in the slightest considering that even a world power would be destroyed in a matter of time if this person wanted to. Therefore, Yao Xiyu firmly believed that this God Protector of the Yao Family would be able to help his daughter.

However, although this person who was like the Fire God agreed to help after learning that the person in danger was Yao Mei, he could only helplessly shake his head after trying. Yao Xiyu could still clearly remember how the old man said to him with a tone of voice full of regret:

"This girl... Her flame is really strange. There should be no flame in this world that I cannot control or command, but her flame devours my fire as if it were nothing.... The strangest thing of all is that no matter how much I feed her, her vital flame continues to go out with no sign of stopping... .... It's as if she had used more energy than her reserves would allow and ended up using her core energy in return... What a silly girl, she could surpass me in a century or two, but now.... *Sigh*..."

After saying that, shaking his head in regret, the old man returned to the lava world, leaving Yao Xiyu at a loss as to what to do..... He didn't even dare to tell his wife and was still trying to find a solution.

The birthday banquet continued, and the guests did not know that the most important person of the night could lose her life at any moment.

Xie Feng drank a glass of wine and frowned at the foul taste. He put the glass down on the table and never touched it again.... After tasting the wine created by Xie Yao's father, all the other wines tasted like horse urine.... Although clearly these wines were of high quality.

"Yaoyao, Qianxue, I'm going to get some fresh air." Xie Feng, bored, stood up and whispered to both beauties. Then, he looked at Yin Yue and smiled, "Yin Yue, please?"

Yin Yue rolled her eyes and waved her milk-white, silky smooth hand, "Go, go, boy. Just leave the safety of these ladies to me..."

Xie Feng smiled faintly and thanked her before retreating quietly. Although he was always protecting them, it was better to be safe just in case. Xie Feng was even protecting Shen Xinya, Yin Yue, and Gu Qianxue's parents, who had become his in-laws. In the past, this might have been an impossible feat, but now that his full potential had been unlocked and his power to control the wind had transformed into something completely new, it was a simple thing to do.

As Xie Feng walked through the hall he received the gaze of many noble ladies, he even heard them whispering to each other. There were also some married women looking at him like a wild lioness watching her prey, which made him smile bitterly in secret.... Madam, please control yourself. That was what he wanted to say.

Before leaving the hall, Xie Feng saw Shen Xinya again surrounded by people. During the time they were chatting, several people approached to engage her in conversation and, knowing that it was not good to refuse too much considering the status of these people, she had no choice but to accept with a smile.

As he left the hall where the meeting was taking place, the cold night wind hit Xie Feng's face. He simply closed his eyes and took a deep breath as a smile slipped onto his face unconsciously.

He really loved the feeling of the wind gently caressing him. It was like a mother giving warmth to her son.

After opening his eyes again, Xie Feng looked at the huge mansion, whispered: "So... what should I do now..."

Save her? Or not to save her?
