Xu Zilong stared at the people on the construction site, dumbfounded. He saw brawny n, adorned with ornate dragon and phoenix tattoos, shirtless and sweating buckets as they moved bricks and pushed carts.
They were busy to the point of joy.
"Huh—"
The two of them could tell at a glance that these fellows weren't just workers, they were the kind who mixed in the underworld!
Moreover, there was a good chance they were people from Dragon Gate!
But why would people from Dragon Gate be working so hard here?
They racked their brains but couldn't figure it out!
Just then, Xu Muge walked over. "How co you're here?"
"What, can't I co?"
Xu Huanhuan said coldly, "I ca to see how you're handling this matter!"
Xu Muge snickered, "Just as you wished, the people from Dragon Gate are working for ."
Xu Huanhuan and her companion were infuriated by Xu Muge, sneering, "Xu Muge, look how capable you think you are! I don't know what ans you've used to turn the people from Dragon Gate into this, but you'd better not let us catch you doing anything that harms the company's interests!"
Now Old Mr. Xu had handed over half of the power to Xu Muge.
Her presence threatened their positions, so naturally, they were unwilling to sit back and wait for death. They had to trip up Xu Muge, making her fail and lose the trust of Xu Jiang!
Xu Muge spoke indifferently, "Don't worry, you need not concern yourselves with these matters. On the other hand, don't let find out you're involved in any misconduct that damages the entire family, otherwise, I will definitely report it to Grandpa!"
The siblings left in a huff, "Xu Muge, so what if you've taken care of the Dragon Gate issue? The company is currently facing a huge capital shortfall, and there's also the matter of establishing cooperation with Zhao Corporation. If you can't handle these well, you'll still be ousted!"
Having said that, Xu Zilong and his companion turned and left.
Xu Muge's expression gradually beca solemn as she contemplated how to resolve the current problems.
However, she soon received a phone call.
"Muge, co ho first!" Liu Ya's anxious voice ca through.
Hearing Liu Ya's urgency, Xu Muge felt puzzled but had to return ho first.
"Muge!"
A gentle voice sounded, and she saw a graceful man carrying gifts walking in. Liu Ya and others imdiately stood up to welco him.
"Oh, Mr. Qin, why such formality?"
The couple imdiately greeted Qin Xiao into the house with utter politeness.
"Qin Xiao?"
Seeing the visitor, Xu Muge was also shocked; Qin Xiao was the eldest young master of the secondary Qin Family in Jiangcheng, and he was Qin Jiang's cousin!
Back when she and Qin Jiang still had a marriage arrangent, this guy had not ceased to bother her.
Moreover, she always felt appalled by the Qin Family for driving Qin Jiang's family out, so she had never shown a pleasant face to the Qin Family mbers.
"What are you doing here, Qin Xiao?!"
She asked coldly.
Liu Ya imdiately reprimanded, "Muge, how can you speak to Mr. Qin like that?"
Qin Xiao waved his hand and said, "Auntie, it's normal for Muge to have so prejudice against ."
"However, I heard that Muge has returned to Xu Group and encountered so trouble."
"I also know people from Dragon Gate. Yesterday, I made a call over to them and discussed this issue with the Dragon Gate Sect Master, letting them know to tone it down."
"I don't know if it worked."
Upon hearing this, Liu Ya hurriedly said, "Mr. Qin, you're so thoughtful. Muge, can't you see how much Mr. Qin cares for you?"
Xu Muge's heart trembled slightly. So it was Qin Xiao who had caused the people from Dragon Gate to behave so out of the ordinary today?
And the "Mr. Qin" ntioned by Golden Python Dragon was Qin Xiao?
"So it turns out, Mr. Qin, that today's unexpected attitude from Dragon Gate was thanks to you. Much appreciated." Since he had helped her with such a problem, she couldn't be too rude, and she had to thank him.
"Ah?" Qin Xiao was startled, then quickly nodded with an air of pretense, "Hmm, yes! It seems that Xu Tianlong still gives this young master so face!"
He feigned modesty and waved his hand, "It's just a trifle, not worth ntioning!"
```
"Muge, there's no need for you to be too moved."
```
He had just heard about Dragon Gate causing trouble at the Xu family construction site and saw it as an opportunity to co over and take credit, without knowing that the issue at Xu Muge's construction site had already been resolved.
However, now that the matter was resolved, he was even more determined to take the credit for himself!
Xu Muge said indifferently, "Mr. Qin, thank you for speaking up for , may I ask what compensation you would like?"
Seeing Xu Muge draw a cold line between them, Qin Xiao imdiately said, "Why so formal with ?"
"Am I helping you for so kind of compensation? Muge, you really don't understand my intentions."
Liu Ya hurriedly interjected from the side, "Muge, Mr. Qin has helped you with a big favor after all, how can you speak to Mr. Qin like that? It's too unkind!"
Xu Muge was speechless.
Qin Xiao waved his hand and said, "Auntie, it's normal for Muge and to be a bit distant after not seeing each other for so long. Today, I brought so gifts for both of your elders and would also like to invite you to dinner."
"I heard that Mayor Zhang's daughter, Miss Zhang, has recently opened a restaurant with a good reputation!"
"We could go and try sothing new."
"Right now, it's only open to a limited extent, but it already beca a must-visit spot for the upper echelons of Jiangcheng. I also expended quite so effort to get an entry ticket."
"A restaurant opened by the mayor's daughter? Can just anyone go in?" Liu Ya said, suddenly overjoyed, "This… How could we impose?"
Xu Muge said, "Mr. Qin, how could we impose? I might not have the ti!"
Qin Xiao's face imdiately darkened, "Muge, I've done you such a big favor, and you won't even give this bit of face? That really chills my heart!"
At his words, Xu Muge was at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond correctly!
"Fine…"
Who asked her to owe soone a favor?
Xu Muge said, "However, I would have to invite Qin Jiang to join us."
"Sure!" Qin Xiao sneered to himself, what use would it be to call Qin Jiang? Without him bringing him inside, would he even have the qualifications to enter Pinxiang Pavilion?
"Qin Xiao said he dealt with the Dragon Gate issue for Muge? What shalessness!"
After receiving the information at ho, Qin Jiang sneered and imdiately set out for the restaurant. He was curious how far Qin Xiao would go with his act today.
anwhile, the Xu family, along with Qin Xiao, had already arrived at Yuepin Pavilion and, after showing their entry tickets, were respectfully welcod inside.
A few minutes later, Qin Jiang also arrived at Yuepin Pavilion but was stopped by the security at the door.
"Sir, entry here requires a ticket, or you need a friend to co and escort you in."
"That much trouble?" Qin Jiang frowned.
Just then, a young woman approached him excitedly, "Sir, is it you?"
Qin Jiang turned around to see it was the sa young woman he had encountered at Hundred Herbs Hall, whose father he had also seen at the hospital previously.
Qin Jiang said indifferently, "Is there sothing you need?"
Zhang Shuqing was very excited, she hadn't expected to run into Qin Jiang here of all places! After all, Li Jiushu had ntioned that if anyone in Jiangcheng could help her father, it would be Qin Jiang!
She hurriedly said, "Excuse , sir, are you here to dine?"
Qin Jiang responded indifferently, "Yes."
Zhang Shuqing turned to the other security guards, "Let this gentleman in!"
"Yes, boss!"
Hearing the command, the security guards imdiately cleared a path.
Qin Jiang was astonished; who would have thought that this woman was the owner of the place?
Before Zhang Shuqing could even speak to Qin Jiang, he had already stepped inside without looking back.
Zhang Shuqing's eyes flickered as she instructed her subordinates, "Prepare a VIP private room for this distinguished guest!"
"Also, let him know that I will personally co to toast him at the event!"
Qin Jiang arrived outside the private room, pushed the door, and entered.
"Qin Jiang, how did you sneak in here?!" Qin Xiao imdiately stood up and rebuked him angrily.
Without a ticket, there was no way to get in! How did Qin Jiang manage to enter this place?
