Chapter 363: Fenghua, the Unparalleled An Si Niang
The woman sitting in the center of the hall looked nothing like what An Yiran had described as being in her forties. Her eyes resembled a clear pool of water, her cheeks were flushed, her skin glowed like snow, and her features were exquisite, making her an absolute beauty.
From her appearance, she seemed to be no more than around thirty years old. Dressed in classical attire yet exuding a sense of fashion, her delicate face seemed to radiate a lustrous sheen akin to jade porcelain.
What astonished Xiao Yun even more was the aura emanating from this stunning beauty; it was imposing. She sat there casually, exuding charm while simultaneously radiating authority. Even the faint smile on her face felt chilling to the bone.
This young woman was actually An Yiran's aunt, An Si Niang?
Behind her stood two equally stunning young ladies.
Remembering An Yiran's words, Xiao Yun dared not look too long at the two young women and instead stole a few more glances at the breathtaking beauty seated on the sofa.
Luo Mingzhu, standing to the side, began to feel uneasy as she noticed the woman's gaze upon her was sharp as a knife.
Indeed, this stunning beauty was An Yiran's aunt—An Si Niang.
An Si Niang withdrew her gaze from Luo Mingyue and scrutinized Xiao Yun up and down. After a moment, she lightly parted her lips and said, "You must be Xiao Yun?"
"Hello, Aunt. I am indeed Xiao Yun!" Xiao Yun replied.
An Yiran had advised him to be humble in front of her aunt.
Damn it, seeing how young this woman was, this handsome guy still had to respectfully call her aunt. Where could he reason with that?
Although he thought this in his heart, Xiao Yun did not dare show it on his face.
He understood that An Yiran was a very composed woman; she must have had her reasons for giving him so many warnings.
An Si Niang frowned slightly, yet a smile lingered at the corners of her mouth. Suddenly, she let out a cold snort and said, "How did I become your aunt? Am I really your aunt?"
Xiao Yun replied according to what An Yiran had taught him, "Since An Yiran calls you aunt, I should call you aunt too!"
In front of An Si Niang, he intentionally omitted the word "sister" when referring to An Yiran, indicating that his relationship with her was not ordinary.
Sure enough, upon hearing Xiao Yun's words, An Si Niang's expression froze for a moment.
"Oh—"
A cold glance from An Si Niang shot over, and then she asked, "The woman standing next to you is Luo Mingyue?"
Clearly, An Yiran had already reported to her why Xiao Yun had come to the capital.
"Yes," Xiao Yun replied.
An Si Niang continued, "What is she to you?"
Xiao Yun answered, "She is a friend of mine."
An Si Niang maintained her cold demeanor and asked, "Did you come to Beijing specifically to accompany her to visit her daughter?"
"No, I mainly came to visit my aunt. She happened to be coming to Beijing, so I came along with her." This was all what An Yiran had instructed him to say.
With an expressionless face, An Si Niang nodded slightly. After a moment of silence, she suddenly stood up and instructed one of the young women behind her, "Xiaoyu, it’s past noon. Prepare some food for them."
As she spoke, she turned around and gracefully walked upstairs with another young woman accompanying her.
She said very little but exuded a strong sense of authority.
This might be the aura of a woman mingling in the upper echelons of the capital, even surpassing that of Beautiful Hall Master Qin Yun. In comparison, An Si Niang's presence is unmatched, and when Soft Red Silk stands before her, it feels like a small witch before a great sorceress.
Even Master Xiao, who is usually fearless, feels an invisible pressure in front of An Si Niang.
Of course, Xiao Yun's submissiveness in her presence stems more from his respect for An Yiran.
After all, she is An Yiran's aunt. An Yiran had told him that her aunt is usually cold and proud, and when speaking to her, he must not offend her.
At this moment, a girl named Xiaoyu led Xiao Yun and Luo Mingyue to the dining room, where a maid had already set the dishes on the table.
Several plates were exquisitely prepared, appealing to the eye and palate. The bowls were made of jade, and the chopsticks were also jade.
In the large dining room, there was only one dining table. Xiaoyu and the maid stood by the side.
Xiao Yun was not polite and invited Luo Mingyue to sit at the table.
Having flown from Galactic District to Beijing, Xiao Yun was already hungry. As soon as he sat down at the table, he picked up his bowl and began to eat ravenously. In contrast, Luo Mingyue was more reserved, taking small bites.
Luo Mingyue had been running a company with her brother Feng Yue for many years and had seen her fair share of grand occasions, but in this setting, she became cautious.
However, Xiao Yun paid no mind to such things; food is essential. He believed in filling his stomach first before anything else. When it comes to eating, he felt no restraint. No form of decorum could limit his appetite.
The sounds of his eating were akin to a whirlwind sweeping through fallen leaves. Xiaoyu and the maid stood by, watching in astonishment and unable to suppress their laughter.
Once satisfied, Master Xiao wiped his mouth. At that moment, Xiaoyu's phone rang. She answered it briefly and then said to Xiao Yun, "Mr. Xiao, our Boss Lady probably thinks you have finished eating. Let me take you upstairs to see her; she has something to discuss with you."
The Boss Lady Xiaoyu referred to was undoubtedly An Si Niang.
Xiao Yun was taken aback; how could An Si Niang time it so perfectly to guess that he had just finished eating?
Could it be that she installed surveillance equipment in this restaurant?
His Spiritual Sense swept around, and there was no such thing installed here.
Wow, this woman is really impressive.
Xiao Yun could only greet Luo Mingyue and followed Xiaoyu out of the restaurant, heading upstairs.
When they reached the third floor, there was a small reception room that was luxuriously decorated, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows all around. From inside, the entire view of Yuxiang Manor was visible.
Against the north wall, there was a row of sofas separated by a Tea Table, which was adorned with various fresh fruits. An Si Niang sat in the center wearing a black cloak.
As Xiao Yun approached, An Si Niang smiled slightly and waved her hand gently, causing Xiaoyu and another girl to step out.
"Xiao Yun, there are no outsiders here; feel free to sit!" An Si Niang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Aunt!" Just as An Si Niang had said, there were no outsiders here. As An Yiran's man, he didn't need to be polite and sat down confidently across from her.
An Si Niang's eyes sparkled as she looked Xiao Yun up and down. "Xiao Yun, I've heard you are An Yiran's boyfriend. Since you are here today, can you tell me how your relationship with her has developed?"
"Aunt, An Yiran asked me to bring you something. She said once you see it, you'll understand our relationship!" Saying this, he carefully took out a pristine white handkerchief from his pocket and placed it on the Tea Table in front of An Si Niang.
Curiously, An Si Niang picked up the handkerchief and unfolded it. A vibrant peach blossom red suddenly appeared before her eyes.
"Uh..."
Instantly, An Si Niang trembled all over, her expression changing dramatically several times.
After a moment, her gaze shifted from the handkerchief to Xiao Yun's face as she stammered, " An Yiran gave herself to you at nine twenty-four last night?"
This...
After hearing An Si Niang's words, Xiao Yun suddenly trembled all over!
This woman is truly extraordinary; she immediately recognized the peach blossom red on that handkerchief. Not only did she identify it as the blood of his niece, but she also accurately stated the time they had an intimate relationship.
What kind of eyes does she have that can deduce so precisely from the blood on the handkerchief?
At that moment, Xiao Yun couldn't help but feel a deep respect for An Si Niang.
An Yiran's aunt is definitely not an ordinary woman.
Xiao Yun nodded and said, "What you said is absolutely right, Aunt!"
As he spoke, Xiao Yun also opened his Spiritual Sense and secretly scanned An Si Niang. This glance left him utterly astonished.
A thick layer of red mist surrounded An Si Niang, as if her entire being was enveloped in a cloud of red fog. She resembled a flower in the mist or the moon in the water, like an otherworldly beauty riding atop a mass of crimson clouds.
Xiao Yun couldn't discern what that mist represented.
But he could tell that this mist emanated entirely from her bones.
From the Qi Mechanism radiating from her, it was clear she possessed extraordinary martial skills, but they did not originate from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect. In modern martial arts, there was no trace of her abilities.
"Xiao Yun, do you know that once a man possesses a woman's body, he must be responsible for her for life? Can you do that?"
Just as Xiao Yun's thoughts were swirling, An Si Niang's clear and cold voice suddenly filled his ears.
Xiao Yun immediately replied loudly, "In response to my aunt, I, Xiao Yun, will certainly be responsible for An Yiran for life!"
"You also need to know that I have no children, only this one niece, who is my lifeline. If anyone dares to harm her in this world, I will not let them off easily. For her, I would die!" Two cold glints suddenly burst from An Si Niang's eyes.
Xiao Yun said, "Aunt, I will protect her."
"You will protect her?" An Si Niang suddenly let out a cold laugh, her sharp gaze piercing through him again. "Don't think I don't know that you have many women around you. Even my family member An Yiran is unaware; I've already sent someone to investigate your background in the galaxy. So, I know you all too well, just like I can calculate your meal times!"
Her words left Xiao Yun momentarily speechless.
An Si Niang sighed deeply and said, "I don't know how my family member An Yiran came to notice you. I won't mention the other women around you; I only ask you this: between Duan Qingxue and An Yiran, who do you care about more?"
Xiao Yun didn't expect An Si Niang to suddenly ask this question.
In the moment of Xiao Yun's surprise, An Si Niang's beautiful face instantly turned as cold as ice.
"What's wrong? Can't you answer?" An Si Niang asked coldly.
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Aunt, both Duan Qingxue and An Yiran are equally important to me. If anyone harms either of them, I will fight with my life to make them wish they were dead, with no place to be buried!"
Upon hearing his words, An Si Niang looked at Xiao Yun as if she were examining a monster.
Suddenly, An Si Niang smiled sweetly and said, "Xiao Yun, it seems you really are a lovesick fool. Alright, I won't say much more. You can stay here with me for the next few days, and I'll send that Tall Beauty who picked you up to you. What do you think?"
