Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Co hit ! _1
Zhang Xian walked into the café, his eyes scanning the room for a glimpse of Mo Shaoyun.
He had noticed Mo Shaoyun’s BMW M6 parked outside and decided to co in and check in on him. It had been a while since their last unpleasant parting, and he hadn’t seen Mo Shaoyun since then.
"Over there," Dong Qian pointed out a direction for him.
Zhang Xian had already spotted them, even Cao Ge arguing with a chubby white-skinned guy.
Given the presence of Mo Shaoyun and Cao Ge, it was not hard to deduce that the chubby guy was fighting with Cao Ge due to Mo Shaoyun. This irritated Zhang Xian.
"Brother Zhang Xian, that chubby guy is Yao Shuai," Dong Qian inford him, grabbing his arm.
"So?" Zhang Xian asked.
"The Yao family is as prestigious as our Dong family, so be careful around him. He’s quite a handful," Dong Qian warned.
"If the Yao family is on par with your Dong family, then Qianqian, you’ll have to protect !" Zhang Xian pinched Dong Qian’s cheek, grinning cheekily.
Dong Qian blushed, muttering, "As if you’d need my protection!"
Zhu Qing witnessed Zhang Xian and Dong Qian’s flirtatious banter with a hint of irritation, and sensed sothing unconventional brewing between them. Their glances suggested they were more than just friends.
Zhu Qing felt insecure about this developnt, even suspecting that Zhang Xian and Dong Qian were secretly seeing each other.
"Shaoyun, look who’s here," Xiao Nan grinned.
As if she was unaware of Zhang Xian’s arrival, Mo Shaoyun lifted her head but didn’t bother to acknowledge him.
Seeing this, Xiao Nan shook her head.
Mo Shaoyun had suddenly stood up when she spotted Zhang Xian then quickly sat back down, clearly awaiting an explanation from him. However, she preferred to play it cool, concealing her true feelings from Zhang Xian.
"Long ti no see, Brother Cao," Zhang Xian greeted with a smile, "How co you’re still in Tiandu City? Is it so laid-back in Yanjing that you can afford to stay here indefinitely?"
"I’ll stay as long as I want. What’s it to you?" Cao Ge retorted angrily.
He was still seething from the ti Zhang Xian had beaten him and his attempt at retribution had ended in failure. He was shocked by Zhang Xian’s strength; even three of his skilled n stood no chance against him.
If not for a sniper offering cover, his three henchn would have been severely injured, if not dead.
"Qianqian, it’s been a while! You’re still as beautiful as always!" Yao Shuai’s eyes glead as he leered at Dong Qian, giving a creepy chuckle.
"Who do you think you are, staring at her like that?" Zhang Xian stepped protectively in front of Dong Qian and glared coldly at the chubby man. "Keep staring and I will blind you."
"And who are you?" Yao Shuai narrowed his eyes at Zhang Xian. "I’ve never seen you before! The other kid was from Yanjing, and now you? How has Tiandu City beco so populated with strange faces during my brief absence?"
"I’m from the mountains," Zhang Xian said, looking up at him.
"The mountains?" Yao Shuai hesitated before chuckling, "A mountain man, huh?"
"And you’re a city slicker!" Zhang Xian examined Yao Shuai from head to toe, smirking, "Are you about to bend over to pick up the soap?"
"Um..." Yao Shuai hastily backed away, eyeing Zhang Xian warily, "Although you’re quite handso, I have no interest in n."
"Listen closely, I was asking if you need to lose weight. Get it?" Based on Dong Qian’s comnts yesterday, Zhang Xian was inspired to tease Yao Shuai a bit.
Dong Qian laughed quietly, rembering how Zhang Xian had questioned her about it for ages last night.
Zhu Qing and Li Peichi were also amused by Zhang Xian’s banter. Despite his pretense of being a hillbilly, he still managed to act arrogantly in front of the city’s elites.
Could all this bravado be attributed to his actual abilities?
Xiao Nan’s thoughts were similar to Li Peichi and Zhu Qing’s. Despite Zhang Xian claiming to be a mountain man, he had a knack for overshadowing the city’s bigwigs.
This, in fact, was part of Zhang Xian’s charm. Such a man was destined to shine like a star.
"I agree, this guy is as fat as a pig and yet shalessly boasts about being handso. Should I say you’re pitiful, or should I say you’re pitiful?" Cao Ge sneered with a look of disdain on his face.
"What did you say? Want a beating?" Yao Shuai ’rolled’ in front of Cao Ge, glaring at him fiercely, "How dare a pathetic nobody from Yanjing show off in our Tiandu City?"
"Give it a shot." Cao Ge retorted, lifting his head. "Don’t think I’d be scared just because you’re bigger. I’ve had my own training."
"Aiya, still living in the old tis, huh? Who the hell goes one on one nowadays? It’s all about the crowd." Yao Shuai gave Cao Ge a contemptuous look, before yelling, "Security!"
Suddenly, several security guards rushed over, laughing deferentially, "Young master."
Cao Ge was alard. What was going on?
Yao Shuai pointed at Cao Ge. "You see him right there? That guy. Drag him out and beat him up."
A few of the guards marched forward, grabbed Cao Ge, and began to drag him out.
Struggling, Cao Ge hysterically shouted, "Damn, what are you guys up to? I’m from the Cao Family of Yanjing. You dare to hit ?"
Mo Shaoyun slapped her forehead, unable to bear to look directly. Turning her head to look at Zhang Xian, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, inwardly sighing at the unfortunate situation.
Once upon a ti, when Zhang Xian turned up shabbily dressed at the doorstep of a grand hotel in Yanjing, Cao Ge looked down on him with disdain. Now, Cao Ge, through the eyes of Zhang Xian, appeared no different than an insect.
This was indeed a huge gap. Even though Cao Ge was under the halo of being Yanjing’s Young Master Cao Family, it wasn’t enough to compete with Zhang Xian even one-thousandth.
At this point, she was finally aware of why Zhang Xian was angry before, perhaps she shouldn’t care about the views of others. Would today’s embarrassnt have happened if she had welcod him with a smile then?
"Are you convinced?" Yao Shuai turned his head to look at Zhang Xian, chuckling.
Zhang Xian hesitated, then asked, "What’s up, you want to hit ? I advise you not to do that, we hillbillies have heavy hands, we don’t know how to hold back."
"I just love bullying hillbillies." Yao Shuai grinned and added: "But of course, if you enter humbly, don’t ss with my good deeds, I certainly won’t do anything to you."
"Fine, I’m leaving." Zhang Xian smiled, looking at Mo Shaoyun, "Will you co with ?"
Mo Shaoyun nodded and was about to walk out.
Yao Shuai quickly stepped forward, blocking Mo Shaoyun’s path, laughing: "They can go, but you can’t. I’d like to chat with you."
A sneer curved the corners of Mo Shaoyun’s mouth, "Do you think you’re worthy? In Yanjing, there is only one young hotshot who dares to block my way."
Yao Shuai licked his lips, taking a step back. Sohow, the look in this beauty’s eyes was particularly intimidating.
However, he quickly laughed again: "So you’re also from Yanjing, and quite tought. But I need to remind you, this is Tiandu, not Yanjing, you can’t do anything to ."
"Do you really think I can’t reach here from Yanjing?" Mo Shaoyun sneered: "In Yanjing, there’s no shortage of people richer than you, and even more who are more powerful. I actually don’t need to do anything, just say if anyone can ruin the Yao family of Tiandu, I will give them a chance to pursue , and your Yao family will be in danger of being wiped out. Would you like to try?"
Xiao Nan suddenly interjected, "I’ll remind you, Shaoyun happens to be Yanjing’s number one beauty!"
The sudden revelation left Yao Shuai looking at Mo Shaoyun in shock, his sweat running cold.
What the heck? Why does it sound so terrifying? Could this woman really be so powerful, capable of making people reach into Tiandu from Yanjing no matter how cumberso? Even though Yanjing is far from Tiandu, it is still not easy to reach into Tiandu. The complexity of relationships involved is outside the purview of clarity. A lot is at stakes here.
After all, it’s not about squishing a small figure, but his Yao Family. Their Yao family also carries so weight in the Tiandu region.
"Yo, why is it so lively here today?"
At this mont, two figures walked from the stair entrance. The figure in front was an elderly man in a Tang suit, followed by an elegant woman in professional attire.
"Master Xie? Long ti no see!" Yao Shuai said with a smile when he saw the arrivals.
"Haha, isn’t this young Shuai? When did you return?" Xie Wuming laughed and walked up to Zhang Xian, saying, "Young lad Zhang is here too! Speaking of which, we haven’t seen each other in a while. When you have ti, co over to my place for a visit? Since our farewell, I’ve missed you quite a bit, young fellow. At my age, it’s rare to et a youngster like you!"
"I’m just hanging out here." Zhang Xian responded with a laugh.
Seeing Xie Wuming greet him briefly and then hurriedly move towards Zhang Xian left Yao Shuai in surprise.
He was well aware of who Xie Wuming was. Even though there were only three major families in Tiandu on the surface, in terms of power, Xie Wuming was likely not inferior to any of these families.
"Young lad Zhang, do you know young Shuai?" Xie Wuming asked with a smile.
"I guess so! Today is the first day we t, but this young Shuai wants to hit ." Zhang Xian laughed: "I’m presently fretting over how to leave!"
"Uh, what’s going on?" Xie Wuming asked.
Fu iting stood on the side, full of contempt. With your strength, would these small security guards be able to stop you? You are surely playing hard to get.
"No big deal." Zhang Xian laughed: "This young Shuai was just flirting with my fiancée. I didn’t like it, so he wanted to hit . There was a friend, who was dragged out earlier."
Yao Shuai, hearing Zhang Xian refer to him as young Shuai in every sentence, was quite annoyed. But with Mo Shaoyun’s toughness, and Zhang Xian apparently having so background, he could only endure.
"Well, young Shuai, we’re all friends, could you give
face?" Xie Wuming suggested with a smile.
"Of course, since this fellow is a friend of Master Xie, I won’t make it hard for him." Yao Shuai was feeling uneasy, and Xie Wuming’s words just gave him an out.
"No! Why don’t you hit ? Hit , co on, hit !" Zhang Xian was upset, "We’d already agreed."
Yao Shuai was dumbfounded. What did he an by this? Why was he behaving like this?
Xie Wuming was also puzzled. In this era, who would actively offer their face to be hit?
Only Fu iting rolled her eyes. She knew that Zhang Xian was not afraid of Yao Shuai at all. If a real fight started, Yao Shuai would probably have gained a few pounds.
"So what? You really won’t hit ?"
"Not going to hit, as I said, I’m giving face to Master Xie, hitting again would be hitting my own face, no?"
"Why are you giving him a face? I didn’t ask you to give him face. Co on, hit
as you should."
"Damn! I’ve said I won’t hit, what the heck do you an?"
