C66 (2/2)
Everyone was eating and chatting at the same time, and the atmosphere was very lively. The only thing that made Hua Qianlou a little unhappy was that every man accompanied him for a drink, and the rest were all girls, chattering away about girls and not putting him in their eyes at all. Even Tong Mengyao had no choice but to chat with the girls and treat him coldly.
Just as the banquet was about to end, the sound of footsteps came from the entrance of the hall. Hua Qianlou turned to look, and his face turned cold as an icy cold light flashed in his eyes. Xiong Jun appeared at the door, holding a long wooden box in both hands.
Xiong Jun seemed to have some fear as he quickly looked away. A deep look of unwillingness and hatred flashed in the depths of his eyes, but very quickly, his gaze landed on Tong Mengyao as she smiled and said, ”Meng Yao, happy birthday, this is a gift I've given you. I hope you like it!”
Ever since Hua Qian Xun had analyzed everything for him, she had understood that the person who had fought against Hua Qian Xun was Xiong Jun. She no longer had any good feelings towards Xiong Jun, but it could not be said that she hated him; after all, Xiong Jun had known her since he was young, and everything he had done, was because of his love for her.
”Thank you …” Big Brother Xiong! ” Tong Mengyao looked at Xiong Jun with a complicated expression. She thanked him, but did not accept the gift. Instead, she turned her gaze to Hua Qianlou.
He patted Xiong Jun's shoulder and said, ”Young Master Xiong, long time no see. Come, I'll help Meng Yao receive this gift, by the way, you weren't here just now, so I forgot to tell you, Meng Yao is already 18 years old, and has already become an adult. With her permission, we have already made a public relationship, haha!”
Hearing that, Xiong Jun's face twitched, a look of anger and pain flashed across his eyes, he looked at Tong Mengyao and said in a deep voice, ”Mengyao, he …” Is what he said true? ”
How could Tong Mengyao not know what she meant by that? She could not bear to see him like that, but when she thought of how much she had suffered, she nodded and said that she had.
Xiong Jun actually knew the answer a long time ago, but by saying this in front of him, it was no different from slapping him in the face. This was simply the most direct humiliation, he had cursed Hua Qianlou countless times in his heart, but when he thought about the boy's influence in the city and how he had no other choice but to beat him up, he could only angrily think that one day, this bastard would die without a complete corpse.
”Then... ”Congratulations to you all.” Xiong Jun tried his best to keep his voice calm as he said something against his own will, then said, ”I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer. I'll be leaving first. Goodbye!”
Hua QianXun smiled at Tong Mengyao, ”Mengyao, I'll help you send off the young master.” After saying that, he placed the wooden box that Xiong Jun had given him aside and walked downstairs with his arms wrapped around Xiong Jun's shoulders.
When the two youngsters reached the entrance of the building, Xiong Jun stepped aside and said to Hua Qianxu, ”We'll stop here. You go up and play. I'll take a taxi back.”
”Stop pretending. You and I both know what you've done to me, but unfortunately, I was lucky enough to not die even after being harmed by you for a few times. You should have hated me enough to make your teeth itch, so why did you pretend to be indifferent?”
Xiong Jun heard this and his face twitched a few times. He knew that Hua QianXun was the one controlling the city behind the scenes, but he never thought that this fella would actually know about these things. Xiong Jun panicked a little, but in the end, he tried his best to remain calm as he looked at Hua Qianlou and asked, ”Qian Xun, what did you say?”
Seeing that he still wanted to continue pretending, Hua QianXun sneered and said: ”You can continue pretending, but I can tell you this very responsibly. Since you didn't kill me, then it's my turn to kill you.
He knew Hua Qianlou's current abilities and methods. If Hua Qianlou were to really attack him, then he would have to be even more careful while walking outside, who knows when he might crash into a car and lose control of it. Thinking of the way those gangsters would act when he had his men kill Hua Qianlou, Xiong Jun felt a burst of fear in his heart, but facing Hua Qianlou's cold gaze, how could the haughty him lower his head to plead for someone? He forced himself to act calm down and shout: ”Hua Qianlou, don't speak nonsense.
