Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2331 - 2267: Xiao Xin, Watch Out for His Life

Gao Wei has been in a foul mood lately.

The source of his agitation was the discovery that Du Jinruo had been meeting with Kuang Yunxian on a daily basis.

In their social circle, everyone was aware of his lifelong devotion to Du Jinruo. He had pursued her relentlessly since they were children, refusing to give up despite her cold indifference toward him.

Because no one wanted to become an enemy of Gao Wei, any other potential suitors for Du Jinruo eventually backed off, unwilling to face him as a romantic rival.

In fact, the reason Du Jinruo remained unmarried to this day was largely due to Gao Wei's interference.

Their social world was small; how many men of suitable age and status were actually available to her?

As a result, her marriage prospects had been delayed until now.

When she began dating Kuang Yunxian, people noticed them together and immediately reported the news to Gao Wei.

At first, Gao Wei refused to believe that Du Jinruo was serious about Kuang Yunxian. After all, Kuang Yunxian was several years her senior, and what did the Kuang Family have left to offer?

Kuang Jiamo had been betrayed by that woman Xiao Fang, while Kuang Kanzhi had vanished, becoming the laughingstock of the capital.

While Kuang Huizhi’s branch of the family had some influence, they were nothing compared to the power of the Gao Family.

Furthermore, rumors suggested that Kuang Yunxian had become such enemies with Kuang Huizhi that they no longer spoke.

Under these circumstances, what assets did Kuang Yunxian actually possess?

He was essentially a lone wolf with nothing to his name—just a teacher. Even if he claimed the title of calligrapher or professor, how significant could such accomplishments be?

Gao Wei assumed the man was likely leeching off the Du Family, essentially acting as a kept man.

He suspected that Du Jinruo was merely trying to spite him because she couldn't find anyone else, using Kuang Yunxian as a temporary pawn to get under his skin.

Initially, he didn't take the matter seriously.

To his shock, however, the pair had been inseparable for four consecutive days. They were dining out, watching films, and shopping together, behaving exactly like a couple in a serious courtship!

One of his friends even claimed to have spotted Kuang Yunxian at a shopping mall with her, helping Du Jinruo try on a gold necklace before buying it for her.

Could this really be happening?

Gao Wei decided he could no longer remain a passive observer.

He felt the need to send someone to give Kuang Yunxian a stern warning.

If the man wanted to survive in the capital, he needed to learn to watch his step.

Furthermore, if the owner of that teahouse didn't show up today, Gao Wei was prepared to tear the place apart.

He rounded up a group of his buddies, intending to confront Kuang Yunxian directly.

Whether by luck or fate, they crossed paths with Kuang Yunxian and Du Jinruo while on their way to the teahouse.

Kuang Yunxian and Du Jinruo had just exited a taxi. Kuang Yunxian had walked around to open the door for her, but as she stepped out, her heel twisted. She stumbled, nearly falling, but Kuang Yunxian caught her just in time.

From Gao Wei’s perspective, it looked as though they were locked in an intimate embrace.

His rage exploded instantly.

Pointing a finger at them, he roared, "Kuang! Let go of her!"

How dare he put his hands on Xiao Ruo’s waist?

Startled by the shout, Kuang Yunxian turned his head and saw Gao Wei charging toward them.

He calmly shut the car door, guided Du Jinruo safely onto the sidewalk, and asked in a low voice, "Did you hurt your ankle?"

Du Jinruo shook her head, but her expression paled when she saw the group of men following Gao Wei. She immediately whispered to Kuang Yunxian, "Run, quickly! The men with Gao Wei have been his personal thugs since they were kids!"

These followers were completely loyal to Gao Wei, assisting him in every misdeed. They struck whenever Gao Wei gave the word and were loathed by everyone.

She knew they would have no hesitation in giving Kuang Yunxian a brutal beating.
