"I used to think I was quite narcissistic, but I never imagined this little girl could be even more so."
Ye Luo was sowhat speechless as he exclaid.
"Big pervert, what did you say?"
Han ngxi glared at Ye Luo angrily.
"Little girl, do you still want to be taught a lesson?" Ye Luo’s mouth revealed a wicked smile.
Han ngxi shivered involuntarily, rembering the scene in the car earlier, and her face changed color as she fell silent.
Half an hour later, the al was over, and Han ngxi called a waiter over to pay the bill.
"Miss, sir, the total cos to 880 yuan."
"He’ll pay."
Han ngxi said, pointing at Ye Luo.
"Nani, you little girl, didn’t you say you were capricious with money? So why am I footing the bill?" Ye Luo was stunned.
"Of course, I’m capricious with money because I’m not the one paying; plus, do you think it’s decent to let a girl pay when you’re out for a al with her, especially when she’s such a big beauty like ?"
"I don’t see anything indecent about it."
Ye Luo said with an extrely thick-skinned expression, but ultimately, he was the one who paid the bill.
"We’ve eaten, so what else do you want to do?"
"Obviously, to have fun. Qing Ya sister said you have to accompany for the whole day, and you don’t have to worry about anything else."
Han ngxi said with a giggly smile.
Afterward, Ye Luo started his day as a little follower, spending the entire day with Han ngxi and practically touring all the fun places in Zhonghai.
While Ye Luo was excitedly playing with the little beauty Han ngxi, thousands of kiloters away in Jinling, another city seed to be shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere.
Jinling, a first-tier city in Huaxia second only to Capital City and Zhonghai, had an even more developed economy than Zhonghai, with fifty percent of its economy controlled by the Wu Family, the foremost family in Jinling.
Even the underworld organizations in Jinling were affiliated with the Wu Family for survival. It could be said that in Jinling, the Wu Family dominated both the legal and the illegal aspects without anyone daring to provoke them.
However, today the Wu Family was struck by a major incident: the eldest son of the old Family Head and the future head of the family, Wu Yingxiong, had been killed.
This was a sensational event for the Wu Family, shaking the entire family and causing a huge uproar in Jinling.
In the suburbs of Jinling, there was a large restricted area and in its center stood a luxurious and grand estate, the dwelling of the leading family in Jinling, the Wu Family.
The main gate of the estate was gilded, flanked by two stone lions that showed dominance and power.
The entire Wu estate was vast, ho to many people, and in the central hall of the Wu Family residence, there was a large gathering of people.
On the leading rosewood chair sat an old man in a Tang suit with white hair and a youthful face, looking vigorous and not at all decrepit. He was Wu Jianxiong, the Family Head and founder of the Wu Family.
However, Wu Jianxiong now exuded an overwhelming murderous aura, his aged eyes gleaming blood-red, imnse anger suppressed within him, emitting a very heavy atmosphere that enveloped the hall.
In the hall were also a group of people, the main figures in charge of the Wu Family’s affairs, but at that mont, each of them was bowing their heads in silence.
In front of them on the ground lay a body; it was that of Wu Yingxiong, the eldest of the Wu Family.
"What on earth happened? Can soone explain?"
Wu Jianxiong’s eyes, as sharp as an eagle’s, swept over the people present; his voice, though low, gave off an eerie vibe.
"Family Head..."
Just then, an extrely weak voice sounded. Outside the hall, the elder Wu, who had been severely injured by Ye Luo, was helped into the room.
"Old Wu, how are you doing?"
Gazing at the elderly man, Wu Jianxiong’s brow slightly creased as he asked in a deep voice.
"Family Head, I’m alright. It is my incompetence which did not protect the young master well, leading to his demise in Zhonghai."
With a sigh of resignation, Elder Wu spoke somberly, his complexion still pale, a clear sign that his injuries had not yet healed.
"Old Wu, who exactly killed my son?"
Wu Jianxiong’s eyes glittered with crimson rage, his fists clenched tightly, his whole body radiating a turbulent anger.
"Family Head, the one who killed the young master is a young man with formidable strength, already at the Innate Realm. Even I was injured by him."
"Innate Realm? A young man?"
Muttering to himself, Wu Jianxiong remarked, "Considering your strength, Old Wu, not even experts in the Innate Middle Stage can easily defeat you. And now, you’ve been beaten by a young kid. When did such experts appear in the secular world? Could he be from the Hidden Sects?"
As he ntioned the Hidden Sects, Wu Jianxiong’s expression shifted, his face becoming quite grave.
"It doesn’t seem so; people from Hidden Sects wouldn’t simply appear in the secular world like this, and by his attire and deanor, he doesn’t resemble soone from the Hidden Sects."
Elder Wu said weakly, his face pale.
"That’s enough, as long as he’s not from the Hidden Sects, killing my son, he must die!"
"And that woman nad Yan Ling, it’s because of her Ying Xiong went to Zhonghai and lost his life. I will make sure she stays in the Wu Family to mourn Ying Xiong forever!"
Wu Jianxiong’s expression was dark as his aged pupils flashed with a shadowy eagle-like glint.
"Family Head, what’s your plan? Should we deploy the family’s top experts?"
At this mont, an elder of the Wu Family looked at Wu Jianxiong and spoke.
"Notify Du Xie, have him take action, bring the head of that kid and the woman. If he cannot bring them back, he need not return either. I want that kid’s head to be present at Ying Xiong’s morial ceremony."
Wu Jianxiong’s face was stern as he coldly commanded, exuding an undeniable authority.
At the sa ti, in another luxurious mansion in Jinling, Lu Tianguang and his wife Yang ili stood in a hall, their complexions pale, heads bowed, not daring to speak.
In front of them stood an old man dressed in a gray robe, around sixty years old, his aged face and his pair of elderly eyes shining with an intimidating sharpness. Right now, his brows were deeply furrowed, his expression tense, as if in deep thought.
"Father, what should we do now? With Wu Yingxiong dead, will the Wu Family bla us?"
After a brief silence, Lu Tianguang finally raised his head and addressed the old man, who was the Family Head of the Lu Family, the second most powerful family in Jinling, Lu Zhengqing, Lu Tianguang’s father.
"Sigh, no matter what, Old Wu will bla the Lu Family for this incident. Look at what you’ve done; you’ve even managed to get Wu Yingxiong killed. What a great job you and your wife have done," Lu Zhengqing said angrily, his brows knitted into a frown.
"Father, we never expected things to turn out this way. Who could have imagined that the woman would have such a terrifying youngster by her side? His power feels like it’s no less than our family’s protectors," Lu Tianguang replied, a hint of fear flickering in his eyes as he expressed his shock.
