Chapter 450: A Group of People Competing in Acting Skills

Brother Chen will destroy the Tang family?

Third Brother, and Dad and Mom too—they’ll all end up being killed by Brother Chen?

Tang Hao opened his mouth wide, (wДw) his face full of disbelief.

Compared with Tang Guoan and the others, who believed it completely, his dumb and foolish attitude had been the same damn way from beginning to end……….

Impossible, absolutely impossible!!!!!

I have 95% absolute certainty that it’s just impossible!!!!!!

“Hi?(。???。)? Young Master Huo! Long time no see, I missed you very much.”

Lin Xuan ignored the stubborn Old Sixth cousin and smiled at Huo Qichen, waving in a familiar, buddy-buddy way. ┏(＾0＾)┛

That level of enthusiasm, to those who did not know the truth…. might have made them think these two were close friends or something……….

Huo Qichen’s face darkened.

He really didn’t want to bother with Lin Xuan, and he hadn’t expected the other party to greet him first.

But on second thought, Lin Xuan must know that their Huo family had latched onto a martial arts grandmaster, which was why he had no choice but to slink over and prepare to lower his head and admit his mistake.

As the saying went: those who understand the times are wise men.

This sort of tactful behavior was not something the domineering CEO could not understand.

Besides, under his meticulous planning over many years, most of the Tang family members had quite a good impression of him.

With so many advantages on his side, what could this useless live-in son-in-law for warding off bad luck use to fight him?

Choosing to bow his head and apologize was the most normal thing in the world, nothing strange about it.

Just as Huo Qichen was feeling smug and wanted to properly trample on Lin Xuan’s dignity in front of Su Qingge, the other party teasingly spoke first:

“Young Master Huo, are you cosplaying your family ancestor Hawking? You even got the wheelchair ready, and that crooked mouth and slanted face expression is pretty similar too.”

“Those who don’t know…. might really think your ancestor borrowed a corpse to return to life. There’s an inexplicable kind of upside-down heavenly order comedy to it!!”

“…………”

Hearing Lin Xuan’s sarcastic mockery, a flash of killing intent passed across Huo Qichen’s chiseled face, anger surging in his chest.

He could not figure out what Lin Xuan was trying to do?!

Even now, he still did not know when to advance or retreat, and dared to mock him to his face?

Did he not know the Huo family was about to take off on the spot and dominate Magic City?!

“Kid, watch your mouth. Be careful your words bring disaster.”

Before Huo Qichen could even retort, the old Butler Fu hurriedly stepped out to protect his master, threatening him with a cold laugh.

“Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Young benefactor, I see that your glabella is dark. I fear you may suffer a bloody disaster today!”

To the side, He Ping, dressed in Daoist robes, stood with hands behind his back in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, expression calm.

He did not even give the other people in the room a proper glance, feeling himself high above them and unwilling to associate with mortals.

“Fine, fine, fine! I’m really scared of you people! Wasn’t it just a joke? Why so serious? |_?)”

“You love showing off so much, aren’t your lives boring?”

“Forget it, let’s watch the match! There are still three minutes before the ‘Jianghu Life-or-Death Arena’ officially starts! I’m not going to talk nonsense with you anymore!”

“…………”

Faced with the Huo group’s faint threats, Lin Xuan picked at his ear, acting as if he hadn’t heard a thing.

He pushed the wheelchair to a floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at a ring platform on the river not far away, quietly waiting for the last three minutes of instant noodles to pass.

This kid really is arrogant to the extreme!

Seeing this, whether it was Butler Fu or Daoist He Ping, both felt extremely displeased inside.

Ever since their cultivation had borne fruit, when had they ever been ignored like this?!

In front of them, who was not respectful and trembling with fear?

Even Old Master Huo sometimes had to give them some face, but this kid in front of them actually dared to treat them with such an indifferent attitude?!

Hehe…….

A mere stray cat or dog. Did he get carried away, or does he think we can’t lift a blade anymore?

“Butler Fu! Daoist He! Watch the match first! We can discuss other matters later……..”

At this time, Huo Qichen spoke up and stopped Butler Fu and the others, who were itching to move and planning to strike.

On one hand, even if Lin Xuan’s relationship with the Tang family wasn’t great, he still had a tiny bit of blood relation there after all.

It would not be good for him to pressure Lin Xuan too much in front of Tang Guoan and the others.

On the other hand, he also did not want to use martial force to suppress Lin Xuan. Instead, he hoped that after the other party witnessed the Huo family’s strength, he would willingly submit beneath his jeans……….

And to accomplish this, they only had to quietly wait for the arena match to begin, then let Lin Xuan and the many forces present properly witness the invincible bearing of the Huo family’s current backer, Jiang Yangping.

At that time, they would inevitably develop fear toward the Huo family and make the wisest choice.

Thinking up to this point, Huo Qichen’s already crooked mouth almost directly split all the way to the back of his ears……..

Noticing that the Huo family’s side had no intention of making a move, Lin Xuan silently placed his raised right hand on his nose and rubbed it to cover up his embarrassment.

He had almost shouted “Close Contact Slap Palm” just now.

He had not expected the domineering CEO, that busybody, to interrupt his spellcasting midway……….

And what Lin Xuan did not notice was that Su Qingge, who was sitting in the wheelchair, also relaxed her body again.

If the Huo family members really had planned to make a move just now, then she would not have cared about the risk of exposing herself and would have directly crippled the person who attacked.

One was at small-success inner strength, one at peak of internal force. To the current Su Qingge, they were not a big problem.

Or rather, because of the special nature of the cultivation method she practiced, Su Qingge, who was already at the peak of internal force, was confident she could crush anyone below the grandmaster realm.

……………

“Brother Chen, my cousin is a man of true temperament. He doesn’t have any bad intentions.”

“For my sake, don’t take things too seriously with him!”

“If my cousin offended you in any way, how about I apologize to you on his behalf?”

“…………”

To prevent the conflict from escalating, Tang Family Third Young Master forced out a smile, doing his best to make himself look like his usual self as he played nice with Huo Qichen.

In reality, he felt so stifled inside that he wished he could slap this beast in human skin to death.

But he had not lost his reason, and he knew now wasn’t the best time to tear off the mask……….

Endure!!!

Bide time and endure humiliation!!!!!

Lying low beside Huo Qichen, since the other party needed to use him to achieve his unspeakable goal, then he could also use this point in reverse in the future and deliver a fatal blow to the other party.

And the ones thinking the exact same way were Tang Guoan and his wife.

They changed their usual lukewarm attitude, greeting Huo Qichen enthusiastically and even expressing concern about his illness.

As the saying goes: know the enemy and know yourself, and you’ll win a hundred battles.

Now, the enemy was in the open while they were in the dark. This was an excellent opportunity to break through the other party’s mental defenses.

When the day came that Huo Qichen relaxed his guard, they would be better able to seize certain loopholes and, in turn, completely drive the Huo family into the abyss of eternal damnation!!!!!

At this moment, each of the Tang family members brought out their ancestral acting skills, acting so warmly toward Huo Qichen that they seemed incredibly close.

Even Tang Ling was unwilling to fall behind. She guessed her family members’ thoughts and, suppressing the urge to vomit, followed Third Young Master Tang in calling the repulsive man “Brother Chen.”

Ugh~~~ (Family, Little Ling will vomit first as a show of respect)~~~~

Facing the Tang family’s sudden enthusiasm, Huo Qichen looked slightly flattered. Verbally, he was modest again and again, but inside, he was already laughing wildly without end.

He greatly enjoyed this superior feeling of making strategies from behind the scenes and controlling everything.

Whether it was Third Young Master Tang or the Tang couple, had they not all been fooled into spinning circles by his schemes?

Even Tang Ling, whom he was meeting for the first time, instantly fell beneath his handsome appearance. The gaze she used to look at him was full of affection and shyness.

Look, this lovestruck woman was too embarrassed to look at me just now………

She was still pretending to be reserved over there, covering her mouth and deliberately turning her face to the side, pretending to look unwell.

Trying to use this clumsy behavior to attract my attention?!

Hehe, what a crafty little woman!

But he had to congratulate her. This low-grade hard-to-get tactic had indeed successfully aroused a little interest in me………..

Inside the private room, at this moment, it was filled with the laughter and chatter of acting experts. Host and guests were all delighted.

You acted, I acted, everyone was acting, as fierce as though they were competing for Best Actor of the Year.

But if we’re talking about who acted best, it was Tang Hao, because he was the only one doing a genuinely dumb “true-to-self” performance!

Seeing that his family members had finally turned back from the wrong path, recognized the beastly cousin’s true face, and realized that Brother Chen was the one they should truly get acquainted with……..

Tang Hao was so gratified that tears filled his eyes, sighing emotionally that the few big slaps he had taken earlier truly had not been in vain! (?^?)

……………

At this moment, in another private room not far away, the Han family members were anxiously waiting.

“The arena match is about to start. Why is Master Su still nowhere to be seen?”

“He couldn’t have…. become afraid of Jiang Yangping’s strength and fled without fighting, right?”

“………….”

On the sofa sat a man in a crisp suit, with a sturdy build, looking to be around his early forties and exuding the confidence of a successful person.

He was constantly checking the time on his phone, unable to sit still.

Han Zhengyang.

The current head of the Han family.

Actually, one could not blame him for being this anxious and worried.

Jiang Yangping was a mighty martial arts expert who had become famous throughout the world decades ago. And how many years had Su Fan cultivated? Even if he was an extraordinary genius, when facing an old powerhouse like Jiang Yangping, who had cultivated for most of his life, he still seemed somewhat outmatched…….

To be honest, Han Zhengyang felt somewhat pessimistic inside.

Like most people, when it came to the odds of victory, he also leaned more toward Jiang Yangping.

But now he had no choice. The Han family could be said to have been bound together with Su Fan, having placed all their chips on him.

As long as Su Fan could win this “deathmatch,” the various invisible benefits the Han family could obtain would be unimaginable.

Of course, if Su Fan lost, then to the Han family, it would also be an unbearable blow………

Under this kind of situation, how could Han Zhengyang possibly remain calm?

“Dad! Don’t worry! Master Su said that after he finishes handling the matters at hand, he will immediately hurry over.”

Beside Han Zhengyang sat his precious daughter, Han Xinqiao.

One of Magic City ’s Four Great Beauties, ranked third.

She had a tall figure and outstanding looks.

On her upper body was a pure white short-sleeved crop top, and on her lower body were blue denim shorts. Her perfect S-shaped figure was revealed without a doubt.

Although Han Xinqiao was also somewhat worried,

after spending time with him during this period, she knew very well that Su Fan was the kind of person who kept his word. Since he said he would come, then he absolutely could not flee before battle, he would definitely show up.

She believed that the man she had chosen was a dragon and phoenix among men.

No matter how formidable that old man was, Su Fan would definitely defeat him and step on the other party’s head to ascend to the supreme throne.

And she, in the future, would become Su Fan’s breathtaking queen consort, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, sharing all the splendor of this world.

Second only to one, above ten thousand!!!

She would become the woman most envied in all of Magic City, all of Huaxia, and even the entire world and the entire universe!!!!

(ˉ﹃ˉ) Han Xinqiao fantasized until drool flowed out, and infinite longing for the future rose within her………
