My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 1622: The Tang Family’s Second Young Master

The next morning, Xiao Zheng followed Yuan Hao into town to buy supplies. Yuan Hao was very excited and had woken up early.

"Sister, let’s go!"

He, who was usually lethargic, was the first to rise and urged his sister to leave early. It seemed he was impatient for the snacks.

"Be safe on the road and come back early," their grandfather, draped in a coat, stood at the door, reminding them.

"Got it, Grandpa. Don’t worry, we’ll be back soon."

The three of them set off. Throughout the journey, Yuan Hao was so impatient that he bounced around. Yuan Yin tried many times to calm him down, but this boy was too excited, leaving Xiao Zheng and Yuan Ying helplessly watching him.

Even though the journey was long, Yuan Hao didn’t feel tired at all and remained energetic the whole way.

After spending over an hour on the road, they quickly entered the town. As soon as they entered, the calls of street vendors filled their ears, creating a lively atmosphere.

Yuan Hao was so excited that he ran up and down the street, and Yuan Ying couldn’t stop her brother. With a chuckle, she let him play, as such opportunities were rare, and it was nice to see him so happy.

They had visited here many times and were very familiar with it, managing to buy what they needed in a short time and getting ready to head home.

Though Yuan Hao was a bit reluctant to leave, once Yuan Ying placed his favorite snacks before him, his face instantly lit up with a broad smile.

Just as they were about to leave, suddenly, a dark figure blocked their path.

"Well, isn’t this the Yuan family’s daughter? How come you’re here again today without letting your brother know, so I could host you properly!"

A piercing voice rang in their ears, instantly turning Yuan Ying’s face pale, and Yuan Hao’s eyes changed. He threw away his snacks and clung closely to his sister’s back.

A young man appeared before them; although he was somewhat handsome, the sinister gleam in his eyes revealed his ill intentions.

Xiao Zheng furrowed his brow slightly and stood in front of Yuan Ying and Yuan Hao, his eyes coldly fixed on the people before them.

By now, a crowd had gathered nearby, taking shelter on both sides of the street, discussing the situation.

"That’s the Second Young Master Tang. With his notorious deeds, I wonder who might be the girl he’s targeting today. What a pity for that girl!" an old lady said sorrowfully.

The Tang Family was the most powerful in this town, and the Second Young Master Tang was renowned for his misdeeds, notorious for oppressing others. He had harassed nearly every girl with a bit of beauty in town!

Nowadays, every family with girls would send them out of town, fearing an encounter with this brute.

"Indeed, I wonder whose daughter dares to come out so boldly. What a misfortune!" someone sighed. With Second Young Master Tang out, the girl is unlikely to come to a good end.

People around shook their heads and sighed over the Tang family’s actions, yet felt helpless. The Tang family’s influence was monumental; no one who dared provoke them met a favorable outcome.

"Oh, there’s even a bodyguard!" Second Young Master Tang sneered at Xiao Zheng dismissively.

"Please step aside," Xiao Zheng replied coldly, making Yuan Ying’s face change as she tugged on Xiao Zheng’s sleeve. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"This has nothing to do with you, please leave," Yuan Ying gestured desperately to Xiao Zheng.

Her face was filled with urgency.

"I won’t leave. Today, I must handle this," Xiao Zheng said firmly.

Although he lost all memories, he understood the need to repay a life-saving grace. Yuan Ying and Yuan Hao had saved his life; if he couldn’t stand up for them now, could he still call himself a man?

Furthermore, he believed whether it was his past self or his present self, faced with such a scenario, would have stood up bravely!

Seeing this, the second young master of the Tang family displayed an even more playful expression, sneering at Xiao Zheng while saying sarcastically: "So that’s why Little Sister Yuan hasn’t looked for me recently; she’s got a suitor now.

Nobody here has ever dared interfere with my affairs. I am in a good mood today, so I’m giving you a chance to get lost!" A glint of malice flickered in the Second Young Master Tang’s eyes.

He happened upon Yuan family’s little girl today, putting him in a great mood. He didn’t want anything else to ruin rare good spirits.

"Please move aside, we’re leaving," Xiao Zheng’s expression didn’t change as he spoke calmly.

"Well now."

Second Young Master Tang’s face slightly darkened, emitting a cold snort, "Do you all see this? It’s as if I haven’t been around lately, and now any riff-raff dares to meddle in my affairs!"

Seeing the Second Young Master Tang behaving this way, fear gripped Yuan Ying’s face as she rushed in front of Xiao Zheng, pushing him away.

"Leave quickly! Don’t mind me!"

Yuan Ying couldn’t speak but gestured frantically to Xiao Zheng, while Yuan Hao was on the verge of tears. He had encountered this second young master many times before, and with their grandfather now absent, his sister was at risk!

"Don’t worry about me, I will protect you. Trust me," Xiao Zheng firmly grabbed Yuan Ying’s hand, pulling her behind him.

The onlooking passersby shook their heads in disapproval, saying, "Where did this young man come from? Too bold to defy Second Young Master Tang?"

"Indeed, whose kid is this, running around recklessly? Today, he’s upset Second Young Master Tang; it seems things won’t be settled easily, this young man is done for," someone sighed.

An old lady buying vegetables looked at Xiao Zheng’s appearance, clicking her tongue in pity, "What a shame, such a handsome young man, acting so impulsively, spoiling Second Young Master’s plans; he likely won’t survive today, Second Young Master Tang is notoriously ruthless."

A servant murmured beside her, "Right, last time at the restaurant, he broke a guest’s leg just because he disliked him!"
