181: Chapter 181: Who Will the Daughter Marry After All 181: Chapter 181: Who Will the Daughter Marry After All Although he had been beaten and humiliated by Su Xuan so many tis, he no longer wanted to be with Bai Xue, but as the father of Gou Dan, the town’s mayor, he absolutely couldn’t swallow his pride or afford to lose face.
So, on the day of the engagent party, Mayor Wang himself ca.
He truly didn’t believe that a small-ti security guard from out of town could be such a big deal, nor did he believe he could do anything to him.
That’s why on the morning of that day, Mayor Wang ordered ten Audi sports cars to lead the way, bringing along a dowry of one million to the Bai Family.
He purposely made a big show of it, magnifying the situation to this extent, just to give Su Xuan a show of force, to pressure him into backing down.
At the sa ti, it was also to give Bai Zhantang so respect.
Wang Shan thought that if he, a mayor, had given Bai Zhantang face, and if Bai Zhantang didn’t reciprocate, it would clearly be an invitation for trouble.
However, when Gou Dan opened the door, he was t with the laughter of the Bai family’s youngest son.
He flew into a rage and yelled at Bai Yu, “What the **** are you laughing at?
Get your sister out here for .”
But Bai Yu wasn’t one to take insults lying down.
Seeing Gou Dan curse at him, he retorted, “Who the **** do you think you are?
Looking like a pig, and you think you’re worthy of my sister?”
Upon hearing this kid insult him by calling him a pig, Gou Dan got even angrier and yelled back at Bai Yu, “I’m your future brother-in-law, how the **** am I not good enough for your sister?
I’m gonna have her in the future too!”
“Ha, bull****, my brother-in-law is lying inside sleeping right now.
You think you’re **** and want to be my brother-in-law?
A toad lusting after swan at!”
Gou Dan found this kid too articulate and realized he couldn’t win the argunt.
Just as he was about to raise his hand to hit him, he suddenly couldn’t move the hand he lifted; it was stuck mid-air.
Looking up, he realized Su Xuan had grabbed his hand, sending a shiver down Gou Dan’s spine.
He tried to escape, but he couldn’t break free.
Su Xuan tightened his grip on Gou Dan’s arm a bit more, and the sound of cracking bones could be heard.
Gou Dan’s face instantly turned exceedingly ugly, contorted with pain.
Then Su Xuan let go of Gou Dan’s hand, and in his haste to retreat, Gou Dan accidentally tripped over a stone and ended up face-planting into the ground.
“Well done!” Bai Yu clapped and cheered from the side.
Just then, a car door opened, and a portly man in a suit and leather shoes, wearing sunglasses, stepped out.
Instead of helping Gou Dan who lay on the ground, the man addressed Su Xuan, “You’re Su Xuan, aren’t you?”
However, Su Xuan didn’t even bother to look at him, let alone answer.
But Bai Yu, feeling emboldened with Su Xuan’s protection, yelled at the man who had just exited the car, “Who the **** are you trying to act tough for?
This is your daddy Su Xuan, what can you do about him?”
Hearing Bai Yu’s words, Su Xuan felt overwheld.
The kid was so young and yet so eager to stir up trouble.
He pushed Bai Yu to the side to get him out of the way and said to the man who had just gotten out of the car, “Yes, I’m Su Xuan, what about it?”
The man who just got out of the car had turned green with anger after hearing Bai Yu’s words.
He was about to scold Bai Yu when he saw Su Xuan responding to his question.
Pressing down his rage, he then put on a world-wise and sophisticated air.
“Hmph, what about it?
Do you realize who you just hit?
Do you know who I am?
Do you know Bai Xue is already engaged to Chu Sheng?
If you know what’s good for you, I suggest you scram.
You’d better not ss with today’s engagent party,” Wang Shan rattled off, displaying the practiced rhetoric of a seasoned official!
“So what if I know?
I’ll tell you, I did hit him, and I’m going after Bai Xue.
What’re you gonna do about it?” Su Xuan intentionally provoked Wang Shan with his words.
Just then, Bai Zhantang hurried out of the house, apologizing to Wang Shan as soon as he stepped out, “I didn’t realize the Mayor would arrive so early, my apologies for not welcoming you properly!”
However, despite Bai Zhantang’s apologetic deanor, Wang Shan didn’t give him a smile in return.
He said to Bai Zhantang, “Brother Bai, what do you an you didn’t welco properly?
You clearly don’t welco at all!
Look at your younger son and the dog at the door, they cursed at and beat up my son.
Do you even realize what day it is?”
“I know, I know, it’s the day Chu Sheng and Bai Xue are getting engaged.
But there’s sothing I need to tell you, although I’m not sure how to say it!” Bai Zhantang continued apologetically.
He knew all too well what kind of person Wang Shan was; he couldn’t afford to offend him, but he indeed did not wish to marry his daughter to Wang Chusheng!
“Oh?
What is it?
Go ahead and speak.
Although what you’re doing is wrong, once Bai Xue marries into our family, we will be one family.
There’s nothing we can’t talk about,” Wang Shan feigned magnanimity to show his magnanimous character.
“The thing is, it’s about my daughter and Chu Sheng’s marriage!” Bai Zhantang’s voice got lower and lower as he spoke, for he didn’t know how to begin.
Seeing Bai Zhantang’s deanor, the worldly Wang Shan imdiately caught on to his aning and asked Bai Zhantang, “Hmm?
Are you really going to break off the engagent and marry your daughter to this penniless security guard?”
“Yes, because Su Xuan is a great benefactor to .
He helped redeem our family’s old shop for .
I truly owe him a lot.
Besides, my daughter likes him.
As her parent, I really don’t want to force her!” Bai Zhantang spoke more and more humbly, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground if there were one.
But when Wang Shan heard Bai Zhantang’s words, anger surged uncontrollably inside him, yet he didn’t show it on the surface.
Instead, he said to Bai Zhantang, “Brother Bai, I also wanted to buy back your family’s old shop as a gift for you, but Su Xuan just beat to it.
Besides, if our two families beco in-laws, not just one old shop—I could buy ten for you.
Look at the presence we have here today.
Could that little security guard have managed such a grand engagent banquet for Bai Xue, and let you gain so much face?”
“This…” Bai Zhantang truly didn’t know what to say at the mont.
Seeing Bai Zhantang waver, Wang Shan continued, “Moreover, if you want Bai Xue to be happy in the future, could she be happy marrying such a penniless security guard?
Only if she marries Chu Sheng will she be without worry for food and clothing all her life.
Plus, today I brought a dowry of one million yuan for you.
Are you really willing to turn away at your door?”
“This…” Bai Zhantang still didn’t know what to say!
However, just then, a clamor of gongs and drums suddenly erupted, and several rcedes-Benz cars pulled up behind Wang Shan’s Audi, honking their horns incessantly.
Wang Shan, puzzled, instructed his n to go see what was happening.
They ca back and told him there were many more rcedes-Benz cars lined up, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Although Wang Shan had seen his fair share of the world, the sight of so many rcedes-Benz cars appearing together was still a first for him.
He thought such pomp must signify the arrival of soone very influential, so he went over personally to understand what was going on.
As he walked over, a man also stepped down from the car, equally portly and dressed in a suit and leather shoes.
Wang Shan took a closer look at the newcor and was imdiately dumbstruck because he thought this person looked too much like their own County Magistrate.
After a mont of shock, Wang Shan confird that the man really was County Chief Cui Jian and hurriedly went to greet him, his expression becoming servile, akin to a tail-wagging dog.
“County Chief Cui, what brings you here?” Wang Shan asked obsequiously.
However, Cui Jian didn’t directly answer his question but instead asked him, “Whose car is that parked in front?
Why is it here?”
“Oh, County Magistrate, that’s my car.
Today is my son’s engagent banquet,” Wang Shan imdiately responded.
“Is that so?
You’ve put on quite a display for your son’s engagent banquet.
Don’t you know that there’s a crackdown on corruption underway?
You should be careful with such displays!” Cui Jian said in a tone suggesting Wang Shan was in big trouble.
Wang Shan imdiately trembled in fear, “Yes, yes, I definitely won’t dare to do this again next ti.
Please look after , County Chief!”
“However, my purpose for coming here is actually similar to yours.
I was entrusted by soone to help with an engagent banquet.
I wonder if Mayor Wang knows where Bai Zhantang’s house is?”
At Cui Jian’s words, Wang Shan was imdiately taken aback, puzzled about what was going on.
“Bai, Bai Zhantang’s house is right here, and my son is also holding an engagent banquet with his family,” Wang Shan stamred.
“Is that so?
What a coincidence.
Does his family have two daughters?” Cui Jian inquired.
“No, just one,” Wang Shan answered.
At this point, Cui Jian was suddenly confused and quickly turned to walk to another rcedes-Benz car, opening the door.
A striking figure erged from the rcedes: a svelte figure, a lovely face, long legs in black silk, and even though she wore a professional suit, her ample bosom seed ready to burst forth.
The mont she appeared, she captured the gazes of many onlookers.
This person was none other than Li Xiaoya, the secretary of the chairman of Fenghua Group.
Wang Shan saw that even Cui Jian was bowing and scraping in front of this person, utterly clueless about the origins of this young and beautiful woman.
Cui Jian relayed the situation he had just learned to Li Xiaoya.
After hearing it, Li Xiaoya, without a word, made straight for Bai Zhantang’s ho, with Cui Jian hastily following behind her.
