Chapter 97: Everything According to Mr. Xue (3 Updates)
When Xie Tianci heard the news delivered by the hotel manager, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Is this a fucking joke?
Or… is it purposefully mocking me?
The manager watched with trepidation as Xie Tianci’s face turned from white to black, and then from black to white again.
Eventually, Xie Tianci suppressed the rage in his heart and let out a cold laugh.
“Alright, I got it. Go and arrange it!”
“Yes, Young Master Xie!” The manager quickly retreated.
Hua Ruyue then leaned in, her face filled with spiteful poison as she said, “Young Master Xie, it must be that bitch Fan Mengxue playing tricks, she wants to ridicule you…”
Slap.
Xie Tianci viciously slapped her across the face.
Hua Ruyue was stunned.
Xie Tianci said coldly, “I don’t need you to remind me!”
“Yes… Young Master Xie!” Hua Ruyue trembled, covering her face.
Xie Tianci pondered for a moment before making a phone call.
“Young Master Xie, what can I do for you?” A lazy voice came from the other end.
“Come to the hotel tomorrow!”
“What’s happened?”
“Murder!” Xie Tianci said with a murderous intent.
There was a pause on the other end, then the reply came. “Alright! I’ll be there tomorrow!”
After hanging up, Xie Tianci’s face was filled with killing intent.
He had never suffered such humiliation from childhood to adulthood.
Someone actually dared to insult him like this.
Good!
Tomorrow, I will give you a lesson you’ll never forget for the rest of your life.
And Fan Mengxue, don’t think you’re anything special just because you made a successful movie. An actor is still just an actor, no matter how talented, you must kneel before the wealthy.
A cold smirk appeared on the corner of Xie Tianci’s mouth, as if he could see Fan Mengxue kneeling before him.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa in the provincial city, a woman asked, “Brother, who is it?”
With a light smile, the man said, “Young Master Xie is angry, he’s asked me to help him with a killing!”
The woman sneered with disdain, “What, he thinks our Shi Family are his thugs?”
As she spoke, the woman approached—it was none other than Shi Zhuli, the same person from the martial arts conference.
And the man Xie Tianci had called was Shi Hao.
These siblings from the legitimate branch of the Shi Family were well acquainted with Xie Tianci.
Hearing his sister’s comment, Shi Hao smiled, “After all, the Xie Family is considered a big boss. Why not do him this favor? Moreover, since the martial arts conference, I feel I’ve made a breakthrough in my abilities. I really want to kill someone to test my power!”
Shi Zhuli’s face remained expressionless. To families such as theirs, killing someone wasn’t really a big deal.
“Then I’ll also go tomorrow to watch the excitement, and see who was bold enough to actually provoke Young Master Xie! ”
Of course, Cao Zheng no longer lived in his previous place. He spent money on a suite in the best community of the provincial city and brought his wife over.
However, because he was busy with filming, he had no time to stay at home.
Today he finally returned home. The woman was squatting on the floor wiping it clean. Seeing him come back, she stood up with a smile.
“You’re back, have you eaten?”
Cao Zheng, looking at his beloved woman, couldn’t help but show a happy smile.
“Didn’t I tell you to hire a cleaner? You shouldn’t be doing these chores. What if you overwork yourself?”
“I’m not tired. This is our new home, and I don’t want anyone else touching it,” she said proudly with a smile.
The woman went to the kitchen and made several dishes for Cao Zheng, then opened a bottle of wine.
Sipping the wine and watching his busy wife, Cao Zheng felt content.
All of this was unimaginable for the Cao Zheng of the past.
He knew that all of this was thanks to Mr. Xue.
Without Mr. Xue’s timely assistance, my woman likely would have died by now, and I would have been finished as well.
“Tomorrow, our film crew is going to have a celebration banquet!”
“Really? That’s wonderful!” The woman was startled at first, then said with joy.
“It’s at the Lijhu Hotel.”
That name seemed to have a kind of magic, causing the woman to freeze instantly.
Cao Zheng looked at the woman and said earnestly, “Ah Xiu, come with me tomorrow! I want everyone to know that you are my woman, Cao Zheng’s woman!”
Ah Xiu bowed her head and after a long while finally said with a trembling voice, “Is this Mr. Xue’s wish?”
Cao Zheng nodded.
Ah Xiu sighed, “Our lives were given by Mr. Xue. Since he decides to go there, we naturally should follow! Don’t worry about me, I’ll be alright!”
Cao Zheng nodded, “Mhm!”
Ah Xiu turned and entered the kitchen, suddenly her face was covered in tears.
She used to be a manager at the Lijhu Hotel.
But because she was attractive, she caught the eye of Xie Tianci, who attempted to take liberties with her after becoming inebriated one time.
She struggled fiercely, but in a fit of rage, Xie Tianci threw her down from the fourth floor.
Ah Xiu nearly died on the spot, and it was only because Cao Zheng rushed to send her to the hospital that she was saved.
This was also the reason why Cao Zheng was later blacklisted.
These old scars were being opened up once again, causing Ah Xiu’s entire body to shake uncontrollably.
She could not forget the cold stares of those so-called colleagues as she lay bloodied at the bottom of the hotel.
Suddenly, Cao Zheng hugged Ah Xiu from behind and whispered in her ear, “Don’t cry. Mr. Xue is a very capable man. If he chose that place, he must have his reasons!”
“Mhm!”
Inside the hotel, Qin Yu hung up the phone with a somewhat grim expression on her face.
Tomorrow’s celebration banquet would definitely not be so simple.
So she made a call to her grandfather, recounting the whole situation.
After listening, Qin Yuan was silent for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “Follow Mr. Xue’s lead in everything!”
“Hei King!”
“Miss!”
“What do you think will happen tomorrow?” Qin Yu stood in front of the window, looking out over this unfamiliar city.
Hei King was silent for a moment, then said, “I believe Mr. Xue will handle everything well! ”
“I believe so too, but the other party is… the Xie Family,” Qin Yu murmured.
Lijhu Hotel was completely booked by Qin Yu today.
A “Fully Booked” sign hung at the entrance, and the parking lot was filled with all kinds of luxury cars.
Men and women clad in glamorous clothing were coming and going, each carrying a reserved smile on their faces.
These were mostly the luminaries of the provincial capital.
They had arrived surprisingly punctually.
Not because Fan Mengxue was particularly influential, but because they all wanted to see the excitement.
Everyone knew about the feud between Fan Mengxue and the Xie Family.
The huge success of the movie had already made it very embarrassing for the Xie Family.
And yet, the celebration banquet was being held right under the Xie Family’s nose.
This was an unprecedented event in recent years.
So many came uninvited, just to witness the spectacle.
And generally, none of them held much hope for Fan Mengxue.
After all, no matter how well her movie sold, she was just a star.
The Xie Family was an established powerhouse that had dominated the provincial capital for many years.
The gap between them was clear.
Besides, many stars also appeared at the event, thinking they might rub some of the success off the “God Slayer” movie that was a hit..
