There was actually someone who was adamant about standing up for this fruit seller. Ye Wenchen was about to mock back but then remembered that this was one of the first-class clubhouses. Anyone here was from a wealthy background, so he swallowed his anger back.
A man walked over elegantly, flaming with anger. That expression was akin to an erupting volcano yet his complexion was as cold as an ice-sculpture. The one who arrived was Tang Wenchong. He was merely interacting with his friends as a gesture of social etiquette and allowed Jiang Xiu to enter the clubhouse by himself. He didn't expect someone would want to drive out the guest he had invited with so much difficulty.
"Who's this man? Acting so arrogant?" Ouyang Qian sneered.
The entire situation today was in their favor and was overseen by Ye Wenchen's Second Uncle, the boss of this Belden clubhouse. Who's so insensible that they want to stand up for Jiang Xiu?
"Are you crazy?!"
To the side, Lin Shu's complexion changed colors. "You don't even recognize Young Master Tang?"
Ouyang Qian said in a daze, "Tang family's eldest Young Master!"
"Which Tang family?"
Lin Shu replied in annoyance, "You're asking such a thing? Are there two Tang families in Jiang City?"
If someone mixed among the silk-pants of Jiang City and didn't recognize Tang Wenchong's identity, it meant that their qualifications were still inadequate. The reason Lin Shu was able to recognize Tang Wenchong wasn't since he had the qualifications, it was just that he had opportunely seen him before and this top young master had left a deep impression on him. Yet, Tang Wenchong simply didn't know who he was.
"You mean… He's Old Father Tang's…"
Ouyang Qian was frightened to death when she realized who had arrived, her complexion turning paler.
"Young Master Chong!"
"Young Master Chong!"
Everyone greeted him.
Ye Wenchen's Second Uncle, Yang Yong also greeted him respectfully. He was more deferential than the others, even making a bow. "You've come, Young Master Chong."
Tang Wenchong ignored him and directly walked in front of Ye Wenchen; that ice-cold chilling gaze was enough to make Ye Wenchen feel goosebumps. "Is it you? You want my guest to get lost?"
Swoosh!
"He's really a guest? Young Master Chong had invited him?"
Ye Wenchen and Yang Yong's complexion changed colors immediately.
How is this possible?
Just what kind of an identity did the eldest Young Master of the Tang family have? How could he even be acquainted with someone whose home ran a fruit stall? Such were Ye Wenchen's thoughts when he asked, "Young Master Chong, you aren't mistaken, right? He's just a fruit seller."
Tang Wenchen grit his teeth with hate and rage. Did you bleach your goddamn dog-shit eyes or what? You actually dare to humiliate Mr. Jiang in front of him? You really seem to not know how the word 'death' is written. What's even more repulsive is that you bastard implicated me too, making it seem like I was neglecting the guest. Who am I supposed to go to cry if Mr. Jiang storms off in anger?
"Get lost!"
His anger exploded out, making him use foul language.
Those words were like a resolute slap to his face, Ye Wenchen's complexion turned colors like a withering eggplant in the cold. The embarrassment was just too much.
Yang Yong started speaking with the intention to plea for leniency for this nephew, "Young Master Chong, this is all my…" He believed that his nephew was just trying to do good. After all, the other party was just a fruit seller and it wouldn't be a big deal even if he was invited as a guest. He thought his nephew wouldn't have to leave once he gave an explanation.
But who would've guessed that Tang Wenchong would glare at him, "You also get lost! From this moment, you are no longer the boss of Belden anymore."
Yang Yong was stupefied at the scene, with a look of disbelief.
He reacted after quite a while, rushing to say, "No, Young Master Chong, please listen to my explanation!"
"Get lost now!"
Tang Wenchong simply didn't give him an opportunity to explain. Yang Yong's heart had fallen to the depths of despair. All he possessed right now came from the position of being Belden's boss, if he lost this job then all will be gone. He said fervently, "Young Master Chong, I… I was only doing my part, checking this person's invitation card but he didn't have one. I… I'm not in the wrong here, I didn't make a mistake, Young Master Chong!"
Tang Wenchong said, "Yes, you didn't make a mistake but you were mistaken about the mistake. You don't know just who you've offended."
"Get lost by yourself, don't make me call the guards."
Swoosh. Everyone on the scene made a commotion again.
Don't those words make it sound like this fruit seller is actually someone important?
Just what is happening?
This matter was really developing into a strange turn. Originally, they believed that Jiang Xiu would have a miserable end, but no one could expect that such a hazardous counterattack would come hitting back. Not only was Ye Wenchen being driven away from the clubhouse, even his Second Uncle who covered for him was also being thrown out. This hit to their face was quite ruthless.
Everyone's gazes towards Jiang Xiu changed.
"How is he a friend of Tang Wenchong, does he have some background?"
Surprise filled the faces of the Cheng mother-daughter pair, they were most clear about Jiang Xiu's background. His parents ran a fruit stall so they wondered how Jiang Xiu was acquainted with Tang Wenchong.
"So, you became acquainted with Tang Wenchong, no wonder you are so arrogant these days." Cheng Lingsu felt like she had finally found the reason for Jiang Xiu's change, "Is this where your confidence comes from?"
Immediately after that, she shook her head. You're too naïve. Tang Wenchong is just your friend. To what degree can he support you? Possessing personal strength is true strength.
Jiang Xiu, you're still the same Jiang Xiu.
Tang Wenchong faced Jiang Xiu, "Mister Jiang, can you please forgive this Wenchong for his negligence?"
Jiang Xiu was as tranquil as before, just giving a smile while declining to comment.
A disharmonious voice came through at this moment, "East can't become West, there's always elsewhere if not this place."
The voice was pretty languid and seemed mocking.
"Who is it?"
Tang Wenchong furrowed his brows. Everyone was quite astonished as well that there was actually someone who dared to challenge Young Master Tang. A man wearing a white suit languidly leaning on the wall appeared into their view, it was that Young Master Bai, Bai Feng.
He came over while swaying the wine cup in his hand gently, "Tang Wenchong, they are guests I've invited. This Belden doesn't belong to just your family, my Bai family also holds shares in it."
"What authority do you have to drive my guests away?"
Swoosh! Everyone caused a commotion once again.
"Y-Young Master Bai!"
Ye Wenchen's call out seemed filled with agitation. He didn't expect that Young Master Bai would cause trouble for him. It could only be said that life is like a rollercoaster ride, too fast and thrilling.
Bai Feng hinted Ye Wenchen to keep calm as he gazed towards Jiang Xiu with contempt, "Even a fruit seller can enter our Belden? It seems like I'll have to speak with my father to close down Belden as soon as possible."
Tang Wenchong puckered his brows, "Bai Feng, what are your intentions? Are you set on making things difficult for me?"
Bai Feng laughed coldly, saying to Yang Yong, "You did pretty well. This sort of beggar-like person who wants to force himself into the upper-class circle should just be thrown out. Feel relieved, as long as this Young Master is here, no one can remove you from the being Belden's boss."
"You…"
Tang Wenchong's expression morphed, this was a clear-cut slap towards his face. He controlled his voice while saying, "Bai Feng, don't create trouble. Don't forget the reason for holding this party today."
Bai Feng said sternly, "It's because I know the reason! This Young Master wants to defend the proper qualifications to enter Belden and fulfill everyone's desire."
Bai Feng's gaze fell on Jiang Xiu while Jiang Xiu's face was still indifferent as before, "Brat, act a little sensitive and get lost from here. Don't force me to call the guards."
"Belden isn't a place you can come into."
"Bai Feng!" Tang Wenchong shouted in anger. He had invited Jiang Xiu with great difficulty and if he left now, he'd be done for.
"I'm warning you, Mr. Jiang is an esteemed guest, you can't afford to offend him."
"Hahaha…"
Bai Feng wasn't frightened by Tang Wenchong's words and instead laughed out loud as if he had heard the best joke in the world. He even shook his head slightly, assuming a helpless appearance. "Tang Wenchong, can't you think before speaking? Just look at him, you say this Young Master can't dare to offend him? Crushing him to death is as easy as crushing an ant to its death."
Ouyang Qian felt goosebumps all over, her face blushing with excitement, "Young Master Bai is very impressive."
Lin Shu said, "Young Master Bai has an illustrious family background, the Bai family is among the top families in the entire Jiangnan province. Myriad Base's Qin Weiping is his cousin, that's a relation to the Imperial Capital."
"No wonder even Young Master Tang was suppressed."
A smile rose up on Jiang Xiu's mouth, his interest was piqued a bit now. He came in front of Bai Feng, "You say crushing this Deity to death is as easy as crushing an ant to its death?"
"Mhm. This Deity is actually curious, just how will you do the crushing?"
Suddenly, Jiang Xiu reached out with his palm, which was followed by a thunder-like sound. It had slapped Bai Feng's handsome face, causing him to fly back.
Swoosh! The entire place was in a panic.
All of them were stupefied.
Cheng Lingsu's and Sun Xiaohong's eyes almost popped out.
