Chapter 130
Xu Hai sat on the sofa while gritting his teeth. He then frustratedly downed a big shot of alcohol. “I met a girl at the washroom just now and accidentally bumped into her. This b*tch called her bodyguards on me, four or five of them, and beat me up. Ugh, I sure was unlucky.” The room sighed in pity. He was being beaten up because of a woman? Such humiliation!
Just then, Chu Feng spoke softly, “Was it that simple? I think you made a move and harassed her because she was pretty, and that’s why they beat you up.” He’d already seen how Xu Hai would do anything for a woman, so he probably brought it onto himself.
Xu Hai’s face went red and he started coughing. What Chu Feng said was actually the truth, but he’d lied out of embarrassment.
The atmosphere turned a little awkward. Then, a girl who knew Xu Hai quite well glared at Chu Feng and asked, “What’s it to you? Are you trying to show off?”
“Yeah! Who are you to comment on this?” the others scoffed in agreement with the girl, showing their disapproval toward Chu Feng.
Chu Feng smiled nonchalantly and continued sitting in the corner, having lost his interest in pursuing the matter; he could enjoy the show better from the sidelines without getting himself involved in the drama.
Yun Muqing pouted and grumbled, “What kind of people are these?” After that, she obediently stayed by Chu Feng’s side and did not interfere either.
Sun Mingxuan harrumphed and generously clapped Xu Hai on the shoulder. He then declared, “Young Master Xu, she’s lucky she managed to catch your eye in the first place. How dare she not only reject you, but also beat you up? We can’t just let this slide. Now tell me who she is, and I’ll teach her a lesson for you.”
Sure, everyone who entered and exited the Golden Sands were either rich, or powerful, or both. But Sun Mingxuan’s uncle was so powerful that Ma Sanyuan from the Chamber bowed down to him. So what did he have to fear?
Xu Hai, though, avoided his gaze and kept waving. “It’s alright, Young Master Sun. You can’t afford to offend her.”
Sun Mingxuan got pissed off at that. What a joke! Who could he not afford to offend in all of Jiangling?”
Immediately, he put on a displeased expression. “What do you mean, Young Master Xu? Are you looking down on me or my uncle?”
“Yeah, Young Master Xu. Young Master Sun is a man powerful enough that the owner of the Golden Sands himself toasted us and sent us girls. What the heck are you being afraid of?”
“Young Master Sun’s uncle is a bigshot in the city administration. Heehee, even if the sky collapsed, he’d probably carry it for you.”
“Besides, there’s us. The power of our families combined will scared that b*tch to death the moment we reveal who we are!” the rich kids yelled in support, still drunk.
Chu Feng smiled dismissively and poured himself more alcohol in the corner, amused.
These rich kids were ultimately like flowers in a greenhouse—they were oblivious to the outside world. Did they really think the fact that their families were worth a billion or two gave them the right to walk all over every citizen of Jiangling? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
They had no idea that there were others that were more powerful than they were, even among Chu Feng’s men in Xi Ye. Indeed, any one of them could easily handle these rich kids’ fathers and destroy these families they were so proud of.
Of course, Chu Feng felt too lazy to do all that because it had nothing to do with him. After a few societal encounters, these kids would naturally learn humility, anyway.
“Young Master Xu, just one word from me, Sun Mingxuan, and you’ll be covered even if the sky itself collapses.” Sun Mingxuan arrogantly ordered Xu Hai, “Now tell me who beat you up, and I’ll avenge you.”
Xu Hai was still hesitating when a loud bang was heard.
