Fatty was also dumbstruck, having no idea what had happened.
At that mont, the stepmother regained her senses, hastily exited the room while running and shouting, "You dare to hit soone, okay, okay, just you wait, just you wait!"
"Mom, Mom..." Dong Qiqi panicked, calling out a few tis, but her stepmother didn’t linger for a second.
"Liu Liu, you’d better take them and run," Dong Qiqi quickly turned to Liu Liu: "My mom went to find people. In a mont... In a mont, who knows how many people might co. You... You probably won’t be able to escape by then..."
"Is that so?" Liu Liu looked worriedly at Fatty and Su Yang: "You two, get going quickly!"
"That won’t do!" Fatty said anxiously: "If we leave, what will you do?"
"I am a woman, what can they do to !" Liu Liu said: "It’s okay, just go quickly!"
"Hmph, think you can just leave?" At that mont, Feng Lan sneered coldly: "As the saying goes, you can run from the monk, but you can’t run from the temple. You might escape this ti, but can you really leave Nanluo City? As long as you’re inside Nanluo City, Wang Shao will be able to find you!"
Liu Liu’s body shook, and her face turned even paler as she whispered, "It’s fine, you go first, I... I will figure out a way to deal with this..."
"Sister Liu Liu, we won’t have any problems!" Fatty declared with conviction: "You might not know, but now, no one in the whole Nanluo City, you could say the whole Pingnan Province, can do anything to us!"
"Oh wow, that’s a pretty big boast!" Feng Lan imdiately laughed derisively from across the room: "The whole Pingnan Province can’t do anything to you? Who do you think you are? The son of the number one authority in the province? Tsk Tsk Tsk, since when did bragging not require drafting?"
Fatty wanted to speak again, but at that mont, Su Yang held him back.
"Sister Liu Liu, don’t worry, no one will co here," Su Yang said softly: "This is Wanxiang Garden, not a place where any Tom, Dick, or Harry can just waltz in looking for trouble."
Liu Liu glanced at Su Yang and, for so reason, she had an extraordinary trust in him. Since Su Yang had said so, she was no longer in a hurry.
"I’ll see how you die later!" Feng Lan sneered coldly.
After a good while, no one ca in, but Dong Qiqi’s stepmother ca over, her face pale.
"So, where are the people you called?" Fatty taunted.
The stepmother clenched her teeth, speaking with a heavy voice: "Wanxiang Garden has VIP guests dining here tonight, the surrounding area is under martial law, they won’t co over for now. But, you still can’t escape!"
However, the people inside the room erupted into a buzz of excitent: "Wanxiang Garden is under martial law? Goodness, what kind of VIP could that be?"
"To command martial law here, he must be no ordinary person, surely soone at a Heavenly Level!"
"Hey, you know what, my big brother works at the Municipal Committee, and he said that the number one and number two officials in the city have co to Wanxiang Garden."
"My goodness, who’s the VIP they are entertaining with such high-level arrangents?"
"No idea, would be great if we could have a look!"
The people inside the room exclaid in awe, their interest piqued. The fact that such a major event was happening in Nanluo City was shocking enough.
Not much later, a man walked through the door.
The man was honestly very ugly and extrely sleazy, the type that screams absolute pervert. As soon as he entered the room, his gaze insolently swept over the girls inside, finally resting on Liu Liu and Dong Qiqi.
"Yo, Wang Shao!" Everyone stood up in unison.
"Hello, hello, everyone!" Wang Shao, looking the part of a successful entrepreneur, waved at the crowd and said with a smile, "Please, have a seat, sit down first."
As everyone took their seats, Wang Shao said, "I’m really sorry, but this private room isn’t the best that Wanxiang Garden has to offer. There really was no choice tonight. I had originally reserved the best room here. However, so VIPs arrived, and the best private rooms were all cleared out for them, so I’m afraid I’ve put my old classmates at a bit of an inconvenience!"
"Wang Shao, you’re too kind!"
"We’re all friends here, why worry about these little details!"
The crowd echoed in response, and Feng Lan, particularly excited, said, "Wang Shao, I heard that there’s a curfew outside? Who exactly is the big shot that’s arrived?"
"The one who’s co this ti is really a big shot!" Wang Shao took a deep breath and said, "Well, let put it this way—our city’s Number One and Number Two, several deputy directors of the provincial education departnt, and even Pingnan’s Number Three are all here to accommodate, just think about it!"
Everyone’s faces blanched. If even Number Three was here to accommodate, what level of big shot would that be?
"Who exactly has co?" Feng Lan asked excitedly, "To even have Number Three co to accommodate?"
"Haha..." Wang Shao chuckled and said, "The president of Beihua University!"
"Ah?" Everyone gasped in shock. Such a personage indeed had the clout to warrant Number Three’s accommodation.
"And furthermore..." Wang Shao paused for a mont and spoke softly, "The president of Huaxia dical University!"
"Ah?" The crowd exclaid in surprise once more—that was comparable to the president of Beihua University.
"And..." Wang Shao spoke up again, "The president of Huaxia Music Conservatory!"
This ti the crowd couldn’t even utter their shock. Each of these individuals represented the pinnacle of their fields in the country. No wonder a curfew had been imposed—to have such VIPs here would be a real ss if a bunch of hooligans caused trouble!
Wang Shao laughed heartily, "I was just with my father, eting the three presidents, so I was a little late coming down. Please forgive , everyone!"
"My god, you t those three presidents?"
"Oh my, you actually spoke with them?"
"This is truly amazing, Wang Shao, you’re very capable indeed. As far as I know, the Number Two of a certain province once tried to visit the president of Huaxia dical University and didn’t even get an audience. Yet you managed to et them; that’s no small feat!"
The crowd buzzed with admiration. They had only ever heard of such dignitaries, and Wang Shao had actually t them, which naturally shocked them to the core.
Wang Shao wore a look of pride, and his stepmother was even more pleased. She gave Liu Liu a sideways glance and then turned to Dong Qiqi, "What are you standing around for? Co over and have a chat with Wang Shao!"
Dong Qiqi’s face flushed red with discomfort. She really didn’t want to go over, but given the situation, what choice did she have?
Wang Shao’s father had managed to mingle with such important people—what kind of power did that signify?
Just monts before, Liu Liu had offended him; if he decided to make trouble for Liu Liu because of it, what then?
Dong Qiqi’s mind was in turmoil, but in the end, to avoid causing her best friend any trouble, she bit her lip and prepared to head over to Wang Shao’s side.
Just then, Su Yang put out his hand to stop her and said with a light chuckle, "Qi Qi, you just sit here. Wang Shao’s mouth is too foul—I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to stand it if you went over!"
