Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 542: Meeting the Enemy in Person
The Sheraton Hotel Jingmen Island is located in the heart of downtown, an area where an inch of land is as valuable as gold. It covers a large area, and the entire hotel building is very stylish. This hotel is the first choice for many tourists who come from all over the country, therefore the price is quite high.
On the surface, the Ouyang Family was the most powerful family on Jingmen Island. After decades in business, the family position is difficult to pursue by other families regardless of whether it is a business network or a social relationship.
Almost all the respected figures in Jingmen Island were invited to a charity party organized by the Ouyang Family; even foreign dignitaries also received invitations.
At 5 p.m., a luxury car entered the Sheraton Hotel. The strong figures in fine clothes entered the hotel and were warmly greeted by Ouyang Lei when they entered the hall. At nearly 6 MP, Ouyang Lei looked at his watch, turned to look at the man closest to him and asked, "How many of those invited have not come?"
"About ten plus," whispered a gentle middle-aged man.
Ouyang Lei narrowed his eyes. When he saw a luxurious car speeding in and stopping in front of him, he glanced at him and quickly came to greet, as he discovered that the person inside was an acquaintance. After exchanging pleasantries, and the other party entered the hotel lobby, an ordinary SUV then stopped nearby.
"Huh?"
Ouyang Lei's expression moved, before being replaced by a pleasant surprise after seeing that it was Gu Xiaoxue. However, Tang Xiu's figure appeared because he had yet to arrive in front of Gu Xiaoxue.
"Geez, how are you here, brother-in-law? How's it going? ”Ouyang Lei directly ignored Gu Xiaoxue and walked towards Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu rolled his eyes and looked at Ouyang Lei, whose expression was shocking, and then said, "Can you change your attitude to greet me? Even if you don't think of me, at least do it for your little sister, please? He is not married yet, and calling me brother-in-law would ruin his reputation. ”
Staring blankly for a moment, Ouyang Lei immediately patted his own head and said, “Ah, you are right! My brother is not married to you yet, so you cannot be considered my in-laws. Then, you are my future brother-in-law. This address must be correct, right? Ha ha - ha…"
Tang Xiu glanced at Yang Le, who came out of the driver's seat, and said, “Remember this person. I gave you one night. Make him want to find me tomorrow. ”
Yang Le looked at Ouyang Lei with a strange and meticulous look, then nodded with a smile, “No problem. You can consider it's already done. ”
"What do you mean? Whatisthis? ”Ask the confused Ouyang Lei.
"I won't introduce you to him for now," Tang Xiu said with a faint smile. "You'll know who he is tomorrow. Also, I am also a guest, won't you welcome me warmly, as the host? ”
Laughing, Ouyang Lei said, “That's not necessary. I'm definitely not going to exchange false pleasantries with you. You can attend any charity party hosted by our family whenever you want. By the way, it's almost time for the show to start. Let's go in together. ”
After entering the lobby, they took the elevator to the 26th floor. As they were about to enter the banquet hall, Tang Xiu asked with a negligent expression, "I heard you also invited the Yao Family. Are they already here? "
Seeming empty for a while, Ouyang Lei quickly realized something and hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law of the future, don't act naturally today! I know that your Tang Family and Yaos clashed recently, but today, powerful figures throughout Jingmen Island are here. My family will not be able to handle the consequences if an accident occurs. ”
"I won't provoke them if they don't provoke me" Tang Xiu said with a slight smile.
Ouyang Le nodded inwardly, “Yao Xinhua has arrived along with a few people. They should be inside by now. ”
Tang Xiu no longer spoke. After entering the banquet hall with Ouyang Lei, he saw hundreds of people inside. It was fortunate that the hall was very large, as it could accommodate thousands of people, so it did not seem to be too crowded. Under the soft lighting of the crystal lamp, a table full of wine and delicious food can be seen everywhere, while the powerful figures were gathered in groups of three to five people and chatted about various topics.
"What is your family's purpose in hosting this extraordinary event today?"
"To put it simply, it was just a simple charitable donation," Ouyang Lei said with a smile. “The Ouyang family has hosted this kind of event almost every year. However, the charity party seems to have changed its meaning along with the passage of time. It has been a great gathering for personal exchanges between business elites, officials, and powerful figures on Jingmen Island. As of now, every successful figure on Jingmen Island took my family's invitation to this banquet as an honor they could be proud of, or something like that. ”
It resuscitated Tang Xiu as he thought about how the Ouyang Family could become the most prominent influence on Jingmen Island. He was convinced that they must have had many other ways to accumulate social connections and networks over the years, and this charity party was just one of them.
"All right! You don't have to accompany me because you are the host of that party. Present to your duties, we will have more time to talk later, "tang Xiu said.
Ouyang Lei smiled nodding. He did have the task of entertaining the guests, as he was the future successor of the Ouyang Family. It would be very unfair for the other guests if he continued to accompany Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu directed a glance forward and looked at the handsome and tall Yao Xinhua, who was now holding a glass of red wine and chatting merrily with some big figures. As if sensing that someone was watching him, Yao Xinhua glanced at him a few times before her eyes and Tang Xiu's eyes finally met.
Tang Xiu gave her a cold smile and then turned towards the rest area in the corner. This was the first time he had seen Yao Xinhua today, and he admitted that the young man indeed had a silver bearing and a good brain. He could tell that Yao Xinhua also had some abilities. This type of person might be frightening to many, but he was nothing to her. Perhaps if that old man, the head of the Yao Family came here, only then did Tang Tang notice.
At the direction of two o'clock, after Yao Xinhua saw Tang Xiu, his expression turned serious and solemn. A cold glint flashed across his eyes, as he could feel killing intent gushing from him. In the first fight with the Tang Family in the Southern region, he was completely defeated by Tang Xiu's attack. He, who was originally in high spirits and constantly dealt a hard blow and was ready to defeat the Tang Family, finally ended up in a total defeat and lost two provinces completely. It happened so fast that it ended up in vain for him. The strategy used by the Tang Family made him unable to react and come to support his troops in time, and everything he did to overcome the situation was always too late.
The end result is very sad.
His Yao family and the families that were on good terms with them suffered quite a heavy blow, and he was forced to retreat in defeat many times. All of his achievements have not changed, causing him to be forced to retreat back to Beijing.
At that moment he was very angry and sad, because he did not know who his true enemy was. Only until then, after conducting investigations through various channels, did he finally discover that the real culprit was the missing child of the Tang Family. That person was Tang Xiu, he was the one who took over the battlefield in the Southern region and was actually playing him pitifully.
Therefore he regarded Tang Xiu as his sworn enemy in this life. Even until now, she had prepared herself, hoping to play again with Tang Xiu in the future, to clear away all the shame and humiliation she had gotten from him. However, seeing Tang Xiu suddenly made his heart stiffen despite already preparing for the opportunity.
Why did he show up here?
Yao Xinhua remained calm and unaffected by the killing intent. Countless thoughts swirled within his head, as he secretly learned of Tang Xiu's purpose appearing here. Logically speaking, Tang Xiu now had to be in Shanghai studying.
Don't tell ..is it because of my family's plan to rent an island in the South China Sea?
As Yao Xinhua thought to it, his heart immediately felt tense, and a look of caution appeared in his eyes. It should be noted that this Yao Family plan was extremely important. If they could finish it off, the Yao Family would continue to grow and their armed forces would advance and expand by leaps and bounds. As long as the plan goes smoothly, the Yao Family will be able to stand proudly in the capital as the most powerful family.
"Excuse me!"
Keeping a friendly smile on his face, Yao Xinhua spoke to the people around him. Then, he brought his glass of red wine and walked to the corner. There, he pulled out his phone and dialed the cell number.
"Dad, it's me!" Yao Xinhua spoke in a whisper.
"What's wrong?" A majestic voice answered from the phone.
"I met Tang Xiu at a charity party hosted by the Ouyang Family on Jingmen Island, Father," Yao Xinhua said. “I suspect his sudden appearance on Jingmen Island must be related to our soon-to-be family plans. ”
"Tang Xiu?" Yao Chengqing's voice carried a doubtful tone. "Which Tang Xiu are you talking about?"
"This is Tang Xiu from the Tang Family," Yao Xinhua said.
Yao Chengqing was silent for a moment. As if suddenly remembering something, he suddenly spoke in a heavy tone, “Tang Xiu are you fighting in the Southern region? The boy who's been missing from the Tang Family for 20 years? "
"Yes, that's it!" Yao Xinhua said.
Yao Chengqing was silent for a moment, and then said in a grim and cold tone, "Don't let there be a mistake in implementing the plan this time. Even though you are there just to smooth things out, you better avoid trouble. With the Tang Family members suddenly appearing on Jingmen Island, it meant that they had noticed something. In that case, find an opportunity to make this Tang Xiu stay on Jingmen Island forever. ”
"I understand, Dad. "Yao Xinhua's face moved. "He will definitely meet the maker, and it will be done secretly. ”
“Do not take it lightly. He is in the shadows and you are in the light, so take your own safety as first priority, ” Yao Chengqing said. "If it's not going well, then back off at once. I believe your uncle will be able to do so in complete secrecy. ”
"Don't worry. I know what I am capable of, ” Yao Xinhua said. “I will not take the initiative to attack without 100% certainty%. I'll step back immediately if there's a little problem. ”
