"You! You hit ?"
Zheng Na was stunned.
"What’s wrong with hitting you? If it weren’t for my brother-in-law pleading, I would have broken your mouth!"
Pan Miao was very displeased that this level of service attitude is even working at Baibao Pavilion, it’s simply ridiculous.
"What happened?"
The shouting outside drew the attention of those inside.
A tall woman walked out.
Dressed in ancient-style clothing, she seed as noble as a queen.
Xiao Chen was montarily taken aback upon seeing this woman.
How co he runs into acquaintances everywhere?
Back when he was still in Linhai, the first person he knew wasn’t Jiang ng but the woman in front of him, Zhang Xuanxuan.
Honestly speaking, Zhang Xuanxuan was quite a nice woman.
She was pretty and gentle.
And she helped him quite a lot.
But that didn’t an he had to like her.
So, Xiao Chen rejected Zhang Xuanxuan’s proposal when she approached him initially.
After that, the two went their separate ways and never saw each other again.
Now, after all these years, he unexpectedly ran into her in Longcheng.
Zhang Xuanxuan’s aura seed to have changed.
She had obviously practiced martial arts.
And judging by her appearance, it seed she was also the manager of Baibao Pavilion.
"Manager, I just said a couple of things about him, saying he couldn’t afford anything in our store, and called him a powerless waste.
This woman beside him hit .
I wasn’t wrong!"
Zheng Na said, crying.
"Miss, what she said was wrong, but you can’t just hit people either. I’m the manager here, and I hope you can apologize to Zheng Na."
Zhang Xuanxuan said, looking at Pan Miao.
"Apologize? No way. Such a foul mouth deserves a beating. My brother-in-law is a hero of Dragon Country, he sacrificed his martial arts for the country.
Not only will I not apologize, but I also want to call the police.
I want to see if the police will handle this matter."
Pan Miao said, picking up her phone.
"Cousin, forget it, I’m used to it."
Xiao Chen waved his hand and said.
What’s so great about being a hero?
In real life, not everyone cares about you, and if you get angry about things like this every ti, it’d really be endless.
You’d probably die from anger.
Then Xiao Chen turned to Zhang Xuanxuan and smiled: "Long ti no see, you’re still as charming as ever."
"I didn’t expect you to still recognize ."
Zhang Xuanxuan sighed.
"How could I not recognize you? You were really good to , and I always regarded you as a friend!"
Xiao Chen smiled.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanxuan paused.
Suddenly, she felt maybe she had been a bit too petty.
Even if they couldn’t be lovers, why couldn’t they remain friends?
Actually, she had thought about looking for Xiao Chen before, but after Xiao Chen was revealed to be the King Yama War God, she didn’t dare to find him.
She was afraid Xiao Chen would judge her for being opportunistic.
She had a strong sense of pride.
Didn’t like that.
It wasn’t until she heard Xiao Chen was relieved of his War God position that she finally mustered the courage to co to Longcheng, but she had always been too busy to reach out.
Honestly, she wanted Xiao Chen to regret.
Although Jiang ng was the Chairman of Xinng Group.
But that was just a mundane industry.
Couldn’t compare to her at all.
Now she was a pivotal figure in the Long Residence and the manager of Baibao Pavilion, and she had t many Jianghu figures.
In terms of status, she definitely outranked Jiang ng.
At least, she thought so.
Back then, Xiao Chen rejected her, and she was quite upset, but thinking back now, it was actually sothing to be grateful for.
If Xiao Chen hadn’t rejected her, she wouldn’t have left in a fit and wouldn’t have ended up entering Long Residence by chance.
Wouldn’t have her status today.
"How have you been?"
Zhang Xuanxuan hesitated for a mont and asked.
"Good, of course, good!"
Xiao Chen laughed.
"Still pretending to be tough?"
Zhang Xuanxuan shook her head and said, "You were once the King Yama War God of Dragon Country, covered in honors.
I didn’t dare to get close, you were so dazzling.
What a pity, later on, your powers were abolished, and you were relieved of the King Yama War God position.
Otherwise, today you would probably not be much different compared to War God King.
Honestly, I have to thank you for rejecting back then.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have what I have today.
I’m really grateful to you.
However, if I confessed to you now, would you still reject ?"
These were the words Zhang Xuanxuan had always wanted to say, bottled up inside for a long ti, she was very competitive, wanting to see Xiao Chen’s regretful look.
"No way, manager, he actually rejected you? He’s really out of his mind, with your current status, with just a wave of your hand, there’d be a long line of n far better than him pursuing you.
He may have been a War God before, but now he’s not worthy of you!
I bet, he’s regretting it to death right now.
Look at that tone he used earlier, it was obvious he was trying to curry favor with you.
Don’t give people like him face, just stomp them down hard!"
Zheng Na exclaid excitedly on the side, as if she had discovered a new continent.
But unfortunately, there wasn’t a hint of regret on Xiao Chen’s face.
Only happiness.
"I’m really happy for you to have the status you do now."
Xiao Chen truly regarded Zhang Xuanxuan as a friend.
Back then when he went to Linhai, unfamiliar with the place and people, besides Uncle Zhong, Zhang Xuanxuan was the one who was good to him.
In his heart, he actually felt a bit guilty.
But seeing Zhang Xuanxuan being so successful now, he felt comforted.
"I hope you’re being sincere."
Zhang Xuanxuan was a bit disappointed, Xiao Chen didn’t show any signs of regret, she felt sowhat let down.
He must be pretending.
That’s what she thought.
"By the way, Xiao Chen, the friends we struggled with in Linhai back then wanted to have a gathering in Longcheng, and you are part of us.
Back then, you were even the most successful one.
I wonder if you dare to go?
Maybe, over there, soone might be able to help you."
Zhang Xuanxuan suddenly said.
"Go, why not, back in the day we rented a place together, although there were conflicts, overall the relationships were good, I also want to see everyone."
Xiao Chen nodded.
People always like to reminisce about the past, and Xiao Chen was no exception.
"That’s good!"
Zhang Xuanxuan sighed inwardly, feeling very disappointed in Xiao Chen.
She thought Xiao Chen would refuse.
Because anyone with a bit of dignity wouldn’t attend such a gathering, after all, Xiao Chen was now just a freeloader.
Facing those friends who had long achieved success.
How to interact?
In her view, Xiao Chen was just going to curry favor.
"Alright, enough about the important stuff."
Zhang Xuanxuan looked at Xiao Chen and said, "If you want to buy sothing from Baibao Pavilion, you’re welco, I can even offer you a discount, but the items in Baibao Pavilion.
Except for a few that can be traded with Dragon Coin, the rest requires Gemstone Currency.
You’re not a Martial World person, probably don’t even know what Gemstone Currency is.
If you’re buying a gift for your wife or this lady beside you, I suggest a jewelry store might be more suitable."
"I just want to buy sothing here, and the best there is."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"See that, manager, this guy is really overestimating himself, even now he’s still pretending."
Zheng Na mocked from the side.
