"Since none of you here invited them, go tell those two outside that I’m hosting a banquet tonight and don’t have ti to entertain guests," Huang Tengchong impatiently ordered the security guard to drive them away.
The hairy crab incident was still weighing on his mind; with so many young crabs possibly switched, he could lose millions. If it weren’t for the fact that he simply could not neglect his guests at this mont, Huang Tengchong would be keen to head to Miyun Reservoir himself and give the crab farrs a severe lesson.
Given the instruction, the security guard hurriedly went down.
It wasn’t long before there was a commotion outside the hall, followed by cries and pleas for rcy.
"What’s going on? Can’t you even drive soone away without making a ss? You’re all bloody useless," Huang Tengchong cursed and berated them. Aisha and Xu Song, who were sitting with him, followed him out to see which unwelco guest was causing such a ruckus.
Zhou Ziang deliberately lagged behind, considering going upstairs to investigate, but then he felt a familiar presence stirring within him. Why is she here? He stopped his ascent and also followed out of the living room.
In the garden, the neatly trimd row of hibiscus flowers was knocked askew, and the tail lights of the rcedes RV parked outside the villa were smashed to bits.
When Huang Tengchong and several guests ca out, an Audi with its headlights fully on charged into the garden.
By now, it was nightfall, and under the glow of the streetlights, the Audi’s front windshield was a blanket of white, obscuring the view of who was sitting in the driver’s seat from Huang Tengchong and the others.
"Who’s got the guts of a bear and a leopard, daring to run wild on my turf?" Huang Tengchong roared furiously as his several security personnel surrounded the car.
The driver’s door was pushed open, and soone stepped out from the driver’s seat.
Then the back door also opened, and another person got out.
"Call that driving?" Xiao Xian was truly at her wit’s end with i Nian; the woman was over a hundred years old, yet her driving skills were absolutely dreadful, nothing compared to Xuerou’s - it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"You are the one who told to charge in, right? Here we are now, no need to wait for any ssy announcents, we’ve directly t the host," i Nian bluffed Xiao Xian at Yanqing Farm, and Xiao Xian was only half convinced. But after she contacted the Lin sisters from Sacred Heart Middle School and confird that Zhang Yiyi had inexplicably collapsed in the infirmary, and that Zeng Xuerou was nowhere to be found, she believed i Nian’s words.
i Nian didn’t expect the Xu Family to act so quickly, rushing to the hotel where Xu Song was staying and catching a security guard from the Xu Family then bulldozing her way straight to Huang Tengchong’s villa.
The pair seed utterly oblivious to the multiple pairs of eyes fixated on them, each set of eyes mixed with different emotions.
Zhou Ziang felt a sense of relief, looking at the unhard Xiao Xian who was still spiritedly bantering.
Aisha recognized Xiao Xian too. It was the female student whom Zhou Ziang had "specially dealt with" at the school. Why had she co here?
Huang Tengchong was most perplexed, having no idea who the two won crashing through the door were. Furthermore, they showed no fear after hitting the car and openly disregarded him, the host, as they argued.
Xu Song recognized one of the bickering parties: not Xiao Xian, but the vigorous i Nian.
"Brat, don’t forget how you pleaded with before we set off, claiming that as long as I save your buddy, you’ll obediently hand over the stuff. Now that I’ve brought you to them, don’t forget your previous promise," i Nian was no saintly figure herself. Especially the Xu Family, particularly that old man Xu Changfu, she had no desire to offend.
"Aunt i, so it’s your venerable self," Xu Song stepped forward and respectfully perford a salute.
Hearing the address "Aunt i," Xiao Xian glanced at i Nian, the corners of her mouth twitched as she swallowed her smirk.
Huang Tengchong overheard it and almost bit off his own tongue. This seemingly crazy woman had a lineage so high even Xu Song addressed her as ’Aunt.’ How old was Xu Song, about forty or so?
"I thought who it could be, turns out it’s Xu Datou," i Nian knew soone from the Xu Family had co but did not expect Xu Song to be the one. Ranking by seniority, i Nian was several generations senior even to Xu Song’s father, Xu Changfu. Xu Song had a big head, resembling a split open cabbage, so the elders jokingly called him Xu Datou.
Since Xu Song beca an adult, nobody dared call him that openly. Tonight, being addressed as such in front of everyone, he had ntally scolded every one of the i ancestors, yet on the surface, he was still politely responsive: "Indeed, it is your junior."
