Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 866 – Courting Disaster
As the common saying goes, there is always someone in any place who can get the job done.
And, as the famous rich man in Shanghai, Gu Changmin naturally had a very strong network. With just a short phone call, she had already resolved Tang Xiu's matter.
To be honest, what Tang Xiu asked was very simple. He wanted the campus to give him the green light to graduate smoothly from the university and for him to earn a diploma from Shanghai University. He will only be allowed to choose whether to attend classes based on his schedule.
“By the way, I don't understand one thing, Brother Tang.”
Just as Tang Xiu was about to hang up, Gu Changmin's voice came again from his phone.
“What exactly?” Ask Tang Xiu.
“Well, given your status and fame, it goes without saying that Shanghai University will not make things difficult for you because of this trivial issue,” said Gu Changmin. “They will probably comply if you make a special request. It is because your fame has influenced the reputation of Shanghai University in and of itself, while your existence makes it increasingly the center of attention in the education sector. ”
“Real?”
But, when Tang Xiu thought about it, he suddenly reached an understanding. As people say that those who care about this issue can rarely see as clearly as those who are not involved. Therefore, he ignored his identity and considered himself an ordinary student at Shanghai University. However, on second thought, he understood the root of the problem because of Han Qingwu.
He had been studying at university for a year and the attendance in his class could be said to be terrible. However, no master teacher or elective teacher had ever troubled him; even the superiors at the university turned a blind eye. Whenever a huge commotion came to scare him, it all came from none other than Han Qingwu.
“This woman again ..” That made Tang Xiu feel irritated and amused at the same time. After hanging up the phone, the fragments of his miserable mood had mostly disappeared. He also thought that since he had not attended the class for a long time, he decided not to attend them before the final exam because it was meaningless for him to leave again. He prefers to review the course himself because his efficiency is much higher than when attending classes.
As dusk came, Tang Xiu had reviewed the contents of the entire main course. As she prepared to go downstairs for dinner in the dining room, a beautiful figure appeared outside the study.
“You're back.”
Mu Wanying stopped at the door of the study and said with a smile. She was wearing professional clothes that depicted her perfect figure, along with long hair that was scattered in the wind.
Tang Xiu smiled and got up when he came to her and said, “I've just been back for two days. Well, the trip this time was a bit tiring so I immediately stayed home and rested. But how do you know I'm back? ”
“Jiang Feiyan told me. He probably learned it from your best friend, ‘ Mu Wanying replied with a smile.
Tang Xiu suddenly realized this and then walked downstairs with Mu Wanying as he asked with a smile, “Ya, I did go to campus today and it seems like no one knows that I have returned except for Yue Kai and them. By the way, how's your company doing now? ”
“This is amazing. The company has grown several times in scale and is very busy, ” Mu Wanying replied gently. “Betul; Lulu also helped me attract some of the leading domestic advertising designers. She really is a capable woman. ”
“Eh?” Tang Xiu wondered, “How does he get along with you?”
“Well, we met at a business meeting and we chatted friendly,” Mu Wanying said. “Lulu and I are now business partners. I helped her promote her Paradise Club, while she helped me hunt down a number of business designers. ”
Tang Xiu quietly shook his head because he really did not know how women's minds worked. He did not know about this matter both in the Eternal World and now. Whether it was Mu Wanying or Ouyang Lulu, they knew each other's whereabouts and their relationship with him; however, the two had actually established contact and even friendship in private.
When they came to the dining room door, Mu Wanying suddenly stopped his steps. There was doubt on his face before he asked, “Tang Xiu, do you have any plans tonight?”
“There's nothing I can think of!” Tang Xiu shook his head and asked, “What is that? Do you have anything in mind? ”
“Well, I have an important charity party tonight but have no male escort,” Mu Wanying said. “You accompany me?”
“Anyway?”
Tang Xiu laughed and immediately laughed before saying, “So you came here to ask me to go to a charity party with you. Well ... You really are exerting your power, aren't you? ”
Shame covered Mu Wanying's expression. “I miss you so much, that's the main reason I came here. If anything, I'm not going to attend a charity party tonight, but then I think it's okay if you agree, so .. ”
“Alright, let's leave an explanation and have dinner first before we go, huh?” Sela Tang Xiu with a smile. “Or, do you want to go now?”
Mu Wanying thought about it and then said, “Let's have something to fill our stomachs first, then.”
Shanghai Century Hotels.
A luxury car stopped at the hotel entrance when a well-dressed man and woman got down from there and entered the hotel. They headed straight to the hall of the 18th floor where the charity party was held.
It was almost seven o'clock when Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying arrived there. Tang Xiu had learned the information about the charity ball tonight on his way here. The gala was organized by Zhang Qingfeng, a well-known wealthy businessman in Shanghai and chairman of the Zhang Group, who was well-known as a benefactor in the country.
Rumor has it that the amount of money Zhang Qingfeng contributes annually to charity exceeds nine digits.
A few black-clothed security guards calmly verified the authenticity of the invitation, while a beautiful young lady welcomed the guests to sign the register book as she spoke to some esteemed guests, “I'm really sorry, sir. We can't let you in because you all don't have an invitation. ”
“Take it easy and make an exception this time, Nak.” The leader of the group, an old man, sharply glanced around with a smile on his face.
The woman shook her head and said, “I'm so sorry, sir, I can't stretch the rules I've been told to follow. You really can't get in if you don't have an invitation. Besides, I'm afraid I'll lose my job if the boss blames me for it. Please don't make things difficult for me. ”
Just when Tang Xiu came to the entrance, he saw some familiar figures and knit his brows without him noticing. Then he went and said with a smile, “They can't go in because they don't have an invitation. There are too many people who want to make a profit by disturbing things at the moment. Don't give a chance to those who just want to eat and drink freely. ”
At that moment, everyone at the entrance turned their attention to Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying.
A middle-aged man standing behind the old man turned his head and glanced at Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying. Despite being surprised by Mu Wanying's matchless appearance, he couldn't help but comment and berate loudly, “Don't talk nonsense, son. Do you know who we really are .. ”
“Diam.”
The old man raised his hand and interrupted him while smilingly elaborating the corner of his mouth while smilingly cursing, “What a brat! Did you deliberately come to beat up this old man and beat up this old man? What's riding, huh? Do I look like a person who wants to eat and drink here for no reason? ”
“Aduh. Well, I'm a little too tired recently and often do heavy things that aren't good for Me that make Me tired. “Tang Xiu chuckled and said,” It turns out to be you, Senior Duanmu! You are elderly, you are constantly taking care of many problems for the good of the country and its people. Why did you come here? Could-”
Duanmu Lin couldn't help but laugh before he slightly nodded and said, “Don't waste time, right? Bring us in because you brought the invitation! ”
Tang Xiu agreed inwardly and nodded, “Understand. Come in with us! ”
From start to finish, Tang Xiu did not introduce Duanmu Lin to Mu Wanying. Although Duanmu Lin had a meaningful look when he looked at her, he did not take the initiative to talk about it either.
As they walked through the hall entrance, Tang Xiu came to Duanmu Lin's side and asked in a whisper, “What exactly happened so you deserve to personally head over here, old man?”
“Bloodkin,” whispered Duanmu Lin back.
“Isn't China a restricted zone for Bloodkin?” Tang Xiu was surprised and stared for a second. “Where did this Bloodkin come from? How could they be so foolish as to act blindly, regardless of life and death? ”
“There is a rebellion in Bloodkin's stronghold in Europe and a small clan of vampires who have stayed silent for centuries suddenly sweeps in to destroy and eradicate other clans with strong deterrence and slaughter. Some vampire clans were under the influence of the Stygian Club. But in all likelihood, the few other clans that had joined the organization ended up in the most tragic of countries and had been massacred. ”
“Klan little vampire who has been living low for centuries?” Tang Xiu was confused, “Are you sure they are just a small clan?”
“They are indeed small clans based on past intelligence data.” Duanmu Lin nodded. “I think the clan only had less than twenty members in the past. It was only now clear that this clan had at least two hundred members, most of them were extremely powerful. One thing to note is that this clan has a very powerful powerhouse — a Vampire God. ”
“Hiss ...” Tang Xiu couldn't hold his breath.
Had it been in his past life, a single flick of his finger could have killed such a Vampire Lord. However, with his current strength and even though his cultivation had just improved greatly and had broken through the realm, he had to spend a lot of effort to kill the Vampire God.
“Did any other Bloodkin clan escape here due to Bloodkin's civil war in Europe?”
“No, it is precisely the clan member who came here.” Duanmu Lin shook his head.
“Klan the vampire?” Tang Xiu stared blankly for a moment and asked in surprise, “What do they want to do in China? Do they want to cause trouble in our country? ”
“How do I know that?” Duanmu Lin shook his head and forced a smile. “We have just received information about this; therefore, we rushed to come. If we can't drive them out, we'll have to resort to killing them. ”
Tang Xiu nodded in agreement. He wouldn't have been a busy person by involving himself had he not met him since, and in any case, Duanmu Lin's group were all ability users. But if a member of the vampire clan went too far to disturb order and hurt ordinary people, he would definitely not just stand idly by.
“Go and do your job, then. But do not hesitate to contact Me at any time if You need My help. ”
Duanmu Lin happily nodded and said, “By the way, come to Beijing later if you have time! My Department has a system of achievements and rewards and we know what you are doing on Mount Qingcheng. You should collect your gifts personally. ”
“What kind of gift is it, exactly?”
Tang Xiu, who was about to leave with Mu Wanying, suddenly stopped his steps and asked immediately.
“Let me keep a secret what the prize is for now, okay?” Duanmu Lin smiled, “In short, it must be a good surprise for you,”
Tang Xiu curled his lips and muttered inwardly: “As long as it's not scary, then alright.”
