Chapter 102: Angel In Trouble.



Chapter 102: Angel In Trouble.

You Xi Wang came to the guest hall holding Emily's boneless, soft hand. He was wearing a buttoned-down white shirt and blue jeans. In his neck hung a fine neck chain, one button of his shirt was left open making him look really dapper. His slightly long hair fell on his forehead, though he was irritated by it, he could never get them set the way he wanted. He kept flicking his head on the way, but the hair just won't budge. Emily tried setting it than for him but it did not work. 

Celestia was chatting with a beautiful young girl with much enthusiasm. There were some other kids from the family too. The beautiful girl was also smiling and talking with all of them with no facade. You Xi Wang observed her from the doorway, Emily also did the same and whispered to You Xi Wang, "Young Master, this girl is a looker."

You Xi Wang replied, " but she ain't competing with you, three sisters. You are in a different league."

Emily blushed but felt very content inside. Just as she was getting ahead in her thoughts, her hand was tugged by You Xi Wang, who gestured her to follow him inside the hall. Some kids saw You Xi Wang approaching, and they cheered. 

A little girl only three-four years old ran to him with a smile. Her hair was tied in two pigtails on both sides of her head, blinking black eyes, and a cute round Babyface. You Xi Wang smiled and lifted her. He spoke, "Hello, munchkin."

The girl smiled and spoke, "Xixi, candy." this girl is niece to You Xi Wang, one of his cousin's daughter. When she was about to be born You Xi Wang's cousin and her father were attacked by a group of dark dwellers. Her father died, her mother was injured before the executioners could arrive. After the incident, her mother came back to the You mansion. This girl was called, Lily. During the attack, her brain was affected by dark energy. She was completely normal except for the lapse in speaking. You family never discriminated against her. She could not speak proper sentences but can speak in broken words. 

You Xi Wang chuckled and said, "Only two, and you have to brush before sleeping." he always kept some candy and chocolates with him, so he took to candies from his space ring and gave it to the girl. The girl smiled rubbed his nose with her and pecked his cheeks before saying, "Thank Xixi, best" You Xi Wang also rubbed her nose and said, "Lily best, welcome." they both chuckled and You Xi Wang put the girl down.

The other kids also came to him like an army, they all spoke, "Uncle Xi Wang, we want candy too." they all were in sync.

You Xi Wang did not know if he should laugh or cry. He spoke, "How many times do you little rascals rob us, siblings of candies, be careful not to get cavities. You all get two each, Okay?" he shook his head and distributed the candy.

He spoke, "Okay, go tell your parents to gather in the garden. We will have fun."

"YAY!" the kids cheered and ran to tell their parents. You Xi Wang watched them with a smile. He heard a sigh behind him and turned to see the young girl who was talking to Celestia sighed when the kids ran away. Sensing a gaze, the girl looked up to You Xi Wang and spoke with a wry smile, "Kids are too energetic, I am not very good at handling them."

You Xi Wang gave her one of his dazzling smiles and blew the girl's mind away. The girl was as beautiful as Yuki in comparison, just as her eyes were green round. She wore a blue round neck t-shirt and white jeans. She had an oval face, thin lips, eyebrows like curved, golden-brown hair. She looked beautiful. Celestia stood up from her side and came to You Xi Wang, held his hand, and said, "This is my big Brother, You Xi Wang. CEO of Tianlong Group, Inventor of Guitar, and also the head of You Family. He is my favorite person" 

Then she introduced the girl, "This here is, Lena Light, an idol of Metropia. She has 15 hits out of 15 songs she sang till now and her dance videos are also hit. I like her very much." her words caused the girl to giggle while You Xi Wang shook his head. 

You Xi Wang noticed an elderly woman was also seated on the couch so he asked, "Who is this elder?" his manner was polite, and the woman nodded in praise. She was about to stand up when You Xi Wang came to her side and squatted down in front of her. He said, "In our family, elderly guests do not have to stand up in front of youngsters, please speak while seating."

The elder woman smiled and said, "My name is Amanda Light, I am Lena's grandmother. I rarely come out, but when I saw your video, and Lena told me she wanted to meet you and learn. I thought about coming too. I hope you don't mind the intrusion, Young Master You."

You Xi Wang waved his hand and spoke with a smile, "It is our pleasure Grandma Light, and please call me Xiao Wang, you are my elder and you don't need the honorifics."

Lena saw her grandmother smile, and she also developed a good image of You Xi Wang in her heart. She spoke, "Young Master You, I heard from Celestia that you also invented a musical Instrument. Can you show me that as well?"

You Xi Wang did not mind and said, "How about I teach you these two things and you help me advertise my Guitar product?"

Lena Light was a sharp girl and understood You Xi Wang wanted her to advertise his product. She hesitated and said, "This... I can only go ahead after my agent says it is okay. I have a lot of endorsements, so I apologize. Please be rest assured I will ask my agent about it as soon as possible."

You Xi Wang nodded and did not insist on it again. he took Lena and her grandmother to the garden where most of the family members were now gathered. Emily stood with Susan and You Zhichi. You Xi Wang clapped and gathered everyone's attention. Then he spoke in a loud and sonorous voice. 

"How about we all learn figure skating today?" and to his reply was a loud cheer from the family members. He then asked the ice attribute cultivators to freeze a section of the man-made lake in the garden. He went up to his sister, and she created ice blades on his shoe soles. She also notices his hair falling on his face, so she set them over gently. You Xi Wang smiled and nudged her nose with his finger. She smacked his forehead gently. The You Family was very harmonious with each other. It was to an extent that Lena who was unaware of the family's strength took it for weakness. She decided to reject the offer You Xi Wang made earlier.. 

You may think that she is a cunning bitch, but she is actually just a dumb celebrity who has never been close to the field of humble businessman and chivalrous martial artists. Businessmen are always cunning, and martial artists are always arrogant in her perception. You Xi Wang gave Susan and Emily a quick kiss and came up to the bank of the lake. The lake was now frozen, and he had created a soundtrack using some applications on his Holo-Phone. 

He took a step and came over the ice. He looked over at Lena and said, "I will do it first and you watch. Then you try to ask if you have any problems."

Lena nodded this arrangement suited her. You Xi Wang stretched himself and did a few normal laps for warmup. Then he came to a stop and tapped his Holo-phone. A tinkling sound then echoed in his ears. You Xi Wang started his performance. He ran another lap and this time his speed was fast. Just when the lap was about to end he jumped and did a full 360-degree spin with his hands crossed in front of his chest. He landed and his hands opened on his sides like wings. He did not use his feet to push himself forward but let the jump force take him forwards. He was gliding on the Ice. He then came to a stop. 

"You can do all the tricks just like this one after watching the video, right?" he asked Lena.

She said yes and after casting an ice spell on her shoes. She also went over to the ice field to try skating her progress was slow but after a few laps she was confident and jumped up like You Xi Wang but she fumbled and the landing was ruined. She tumbled forward, she screamed and fell forward.

On the side, her grandmother shouted anxiously, "Lenaa.."

But just as Lena was about to bust up her pretty face, she felt a hand around her waist, holding her up. She had closed her eyes from the fear of falling. She opened her eyes and saw You Xi Wang holding her waist, preventing her from falling. He looked very dashing.

'Although weak, but he is very handsome. Maybe I could try it and get to know him first.' this was the first thought in her mind. 

You Xi Wang help her up and came to a stop. He said, "How about I lead and you follow? I can also show you some moves that you can do with the male lead of your videos?" 

Lena subconsciously nodded and extended her hand for You Xi Wang to hold. The boy grabbed it and wondered, 'Whoa, so soft. Maybe it's her idol halo.'

He then started skating while holding the girl's hand. At this moment unaware to him, a pair of cold eyes was focused on him. You Xi Wang showed Lena the ropes of jumps and landings, and when he came to the edge, he felt his shirt was grabbed by someone from the neck. He turned and saw Yuki staring him dead in the eye.

"Beauty... Yu... Yuki.." he stammered.
