Chapter 167: Chapter 167: Help Me Beg for Xun Huan
Zhao Changsheng did not attend to Mu Tiange but walked directly toward Ye Xunhuan with an extremely respectful demeanor and said, "Brother Huan!"
Zhao Changsheng’s behavior immediately caused Mu Tiange’s complexion to change dramatically as if he understood something in that moment.
Others were also stunned at this moment, watching Ye Xunhuan with a powerful yet indistinct aura.
It turned out that before attending the banquet, Ye Xunhuan had specifically made a call to Xiao Jiu.
The gathering hosted by Mu Tiange was far from a peaceful banquet, which Ye Xunhuan knew, so he made a call to Xiao Jiu, asking him to send someone to surveil the event. If Mu Tiange was merely hosting a gathering without causing trouble, then Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t have said much, and the day would have passed just like that. However, if Mu Tiange failed to recognize the favor given to him, then Ye Xunhuan was not to be trifled with.
Moreover, when Ye Xunhuan arrived, he saw quite a few suspicious-looking tough guys outside, but he paid no mind to them, trusting that Xiao Jiu would handle it well and know what to do.
Sure enough, Zhao Changsheng, outside, upon hearing that some fierce-looking men intended to head to the hall where Ye Xunhuan was, knew trouble was brewing. Without a moment’s hesitation, he led his men in like a thunderbolt to subdue Mu Tiange’s men, then entered himself.
Ye Xunhuan nodded, "Why did you come?"
"Brother Huan, it seems that Jiu Ge is caught up with something and can’t get away," Zhao Changsheng said with utmost respect.
Hearing Zhao Changsheng’s words, a trace of realization crossed Ye Xunhuan’s face. Besides Qin Rumeng, who else in Jiangzhong City could be keeping Xiao Jiu so occupied?
At this moment, everyone finally understood; Zhao Changsheng was Ye Xunhuan’s man, not Mu Tiange’s.
All at once, everyone’s gaze toward Ye Xunhuan filled with astonishment. Could their overlord really be just a minor employee of the Huangtu Group?
Could a minor employee summon so many people in an instant?
And seeing Zhao Changsheng’s attire and the aura he exuded, it was clear he was not just anybody, yet he was so deferential to Ye Xunhuan.
Just then, Mu Tiange suddenly spoke up, "Zhao Changsheng, what the hell do you think you’re doing?"
Hearing Mu Tiange’s words, Zhao Changsheng gave a disdainful snort. "Mu Tiange, do you really think this is the Capital?"
"Let me tell you, this is Jiangzhong City; whether you’re a rich young master from the south or the north, in this territory, a tiger must lie down for me, and a dragon must coil for me!"
"You think by getting me to deal with Brother Huan, I’d actually help you?" Zhao Changsheng’s sneer grew thicker: "Look at what you are!"
"If it hadn’t been for Brother Huan’s old times, telling us not to touch you, do you think you’d still be standing here?"
Upon hearing Zhao Changsheng’s words, everyone’s face changed in unison—Mu Tiange wanted to deal with Ye Xunhuan and had been prepared before?
When Su Guyan heard Zhao Changsheng’s words, her autumn-like eyes were filled with unspeakable fury.
Mu Tiange had already started to scheme behind the scenes, plotting against Ye Xunhuan. If not for Ye Xunhuan having some connections, then he...
Su Guyan dared not continue that thought, but inside, she harbored an intent to kill Mu Tiange.
The same went for Chu Ji, her almond-shaped eyes glared furiously at Mu Tiange, wishing she could grind him to dust! 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Seeing Zhao Changsheng expose his dirty deeds publicly, Mu Tiange’s face twisted violently, the venomous light in his eyes growing more intense.
At this moment, Mu Tiange felt himself to be nothing more than a clownish buffoon.
Indeed, a clownish buffoon, who had tried every trick in the book to deal with Ye Xunhuan, only to find out that Ye had always been aware, and had even damn well known who he had sought for help.
Always proud, Mu Tiange now felt like he was being played like a monkey, his heart grew exceedingly gloomy, and he clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could tear Zhao Changsheng apart right there and then.
"Good, good, very good!" Mu Tiange glared at Zhao Changsheng and Ye Xunhuan with a dark look, "Although I don’t know what exactly your relationship is!"
"But think carefully about the consequences of messing with me, Zhao Changsheng," Mu Tiange said icily, "Consider how your old man, Zhao Wusheng, will react!"
Zhao Changsheng immediately furrowed his brow. Mu Tiange was outright threatening him.
"Now, I’m giving you a choice: cripple Ye Xunhuan for me, and I can act as if nothing has happened," Mu Tiange declared from his high horse, "Otherwise..."
Mu Tiange didn’t continue, but the threat in his words could not have been more palpable.
Ye Xunhuan caught the subtle changes on Zhao Changsheng’s face but showed no change in his own expression, maintaining a calm demeanor as if indifferent to whatever choice Zhao Changsheng would make.
"Mu Tiange, don’t you think you are being too presumptuous?" Zhao Changsheng sneered coldly, "Attack, I’ll bear the consequences!"
As soon as Zhao Changsheng’s voice fell, the men he had brought with him immediately swarmed Mu Tiange, pummeling him without a word.
"Zhao Changsheng, you damn dare..."
Before Mu Tiange could finish, a pained howl burst from his mouth.
"Ye Xunhuan, I won’t let you off, I must kill you..."
The agonized howls, mixed with Mu Tiange’s voice filled with hatred, made everyone in the hall shiver with coldness. No one dared to speak, each staring wide-eyed at the scene unfolding before them.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to them, their foreheads were beaded with cold sweat.
No one had expected the situation to develop in such an adverse direction for Mu Tiange to be thrashed by Ye Xunhuan.
"Aren’t you afraid of his revenge?" Ye Xunhuan asked, looking at Mu Tiange, who was wailing like a beaten dog, and then turned to Zhao Changsheng.
"Afraid!" Zhao Changsheng admitted candidly, "But I know that Brother Huan won’t stand by and watch his young brother get in trouble!"
If it had been before, Zhao Changsheng might have been wary of Mu Tiange, but ever since learning from his father, Zhao Wusheng, how Ye Xunhuan’s aunt had bullied Ji Zhuoyuan’s family into total submission, Zhao Changsheng realized that as long as he closely followed Ye Xunhuan’s lead, his future would be boundless!
"Ye Xunhuan, you little bastard, if you have the guts, kill me, kill me..."
"Zhao Changsheng, I will definitely destroy you..."
At this moment, Mu Tiange cursed Ye Xunhuan and Zhao Changsheng viciously, but the next moment, he suddenly began pleading for mercy, "Xunhuan, I was wrong, please let me go, let me go. I won’t dare again, I won’t ever dare again..."
"Ah..."
"Gu Yan, please beg Xunhuan for me, beg him..."
