Chapter 585 Arrogant Dragon - Daydreaming
"hehe..."

Gao Dongxu smiled and looked around the store, raising an eyebrow and teasing, "These days, even the young master doesn't rely on this store to make a living; he's doing big business now."

Meng Chao naturally knew that Gao Dongxu was teasing Wu Xie, and said with a smile, "A week ago, he called me and told me to take good care of the store, to take my own salary from the account, and to let me oversee the sale of the goods in the store. He really trusts me."

"The naive Wu Xie is just a basic skill for him," Gao Dongxu laughed.

Meng Chao laughed along with him, but he felt genuinely touched and guilty towards Wu Xie.

As if he could hear Meng Chao’s thoughts, Gao Dongxu picked up his teacup, took a small sip of hot tea, and said calmly, “You don’t need to feel guilty towards him. I know that when you’re an undercover agent, it’s easy to be moved by a kind-hearted person like Wu Xie. I sent you here not to harm him, but to save him several times. So don’t feel guilty.”

Upon hearing Gao Dongxu's words, Meng Chao blushed, lowered his head, and whispered, "Sorry, boss, I..."

"Alright, I'm not blaming you. You've endured so many years of wandering and suffering, but you still have a kind heart, which is a good thing. Have you contacted Wen Xiaoyu?" Gao Dongxu looked at Meng Chao and smiled faintly.

A hint of sadness flashed in Meng Chao's eyes, but he forced a smile and said, "No, let bygones be bygones. She and I have both started new lives. Whether we contact each other again or meet again, it will only bring back painful memories..."

"Hmm." Gao Dongxu nodded. To be honest, he didn't want Meng Chao to contact Wen Xiaoyu again either. That girl was too conflicted, too melancholy, and too repressed.

"Besides checking on you, I also wanted to talk to you about our next steps," Gao Dongxu said, putting down his teacup and looking at Meng Chao.

"Boss, you can arrange it." Meng Chao said hurriedly.

“Wu Xie doesn’t need you to keep an eye on things anymore, so you can resign from your job and come back to work with me. Your brother Feng is about to go to Africa to take revenge, so I’m short of trustworthy people around me,” Gao Dongxu said calmly.

"Brother Feng is leaving?" Meng Chao was a little moved and excited.

"Yes, we've already obtained information on those mercenaries. If I didn't need him by my side, he would have already gone after them."

“I will follow your arrangements.” Meng Chao immediately agreed, then hesitated and said, “Boss, could I wait until Wu Xie comes back before I resign? If I leave now, this shop will have to close down.”

"Okay, you've seen things through to the end. Wu Xie has been good to you after all. Let's have lunch together."

"Ok."

When Gao Dongxu brought Meng Chao and Leng Feng to dine together, the huge round table in the luxurious restaurant of the Manor was filled with exquisite delicacies from land and sea, each with its own unique color, aroma, and taste.

Wearing a bright red leather suit, sporting a large, shiny forehead, and with a pitifully receding hairline, he slicked back his hair and, while picking up food with chopsticks and putting it in his mouth, gave a mocking and sarcastic look to Brother Qi, who was sitting with him.

"...Everyone says your teacher isn't greedy, but I've always disagreed. Sure enough, the Nankuang Group's affair has finally exposed its true colors."

Brother Qi didn't tolerate the eccentric and malicious dragon. They were just using each other. Although he was wary of the dragon's patriarch and hoped to advance his own career, it didn't mean he had to be subservient to the dragon.

"Stop trying to smear my teacher. The incident at Nankuang was orchestrated by Dongxu."

It would have been better if Gao Dongxu hadn't been mentioned. The moment Gao Dongxu was brought up, the evil dragon would be furious. He really didn't expect that after so many years of dominating the martial arts world, he would be outmaneuvered by a little brat. Not only was he outmaneuvered, but he also lost face and was completely humiliated.

"Speaking of which, that kid from the Gao family is really damn lucky. He managed to survive such a serious car accident."

Brother Qi's face turned extremely ugly. Yu Jiaqin, sitting beside him, wore a red dress that accentuated her graceful curves, making her look like a meticulously sculpted statue. Seeing the change in Brother Qi's expression, she couldn't help but smile, her gentle and elegant demeanor like a spring breeze. She said, "Young Master Gao is truly extraordinary. At such a young age, without relying on his family, just by dealing in antiques, he has managed to earn billions in just three years. It's nothing short of a miracle."

A glint of jealousy and malice flashed in the dragon's eyes, and he sneered with a crooked mouth, "That kid does have some luck, but that's all he'll amount to. In the end, he's just a street vendor selling antiques..."

Then, looking at the increasingly beautiful and alluring Yu Jiaqin, he teased her with ill intent, "Moreover, according to my investigation, that kid is a lecherous devil. You'd better be careful, lest he set his sights on you—"

These words were clearly an insult, specifically to both Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin, since the evil dragon was very clear about the relationship between the two.

Therefore, both Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin's expressions turned extremely ugly. Brother Qi stared coldly at the evil dragon, while Yu Jiaqin was filled with shame and indignation. Although her smile had not faded, her eyes had subtly changed meaning, becoming sharp as knives.

Finally, the evil dragon felt he had said his piece. Seeing Brother Qi's ugly expression, he sneered inwardly, but put on a completely insincere apologetic smile and said, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously. Alright, I'll punish myself with a drink—" He then picked up his wine glass and took a sip, laughing to himself.

Seeing the dragon's arrogance and conceit, Brother Qi suppressed his anger and said calmly, "It's best not to make jokes like this in the future. Xiaoqin is my woman now."

Yu Jiaqin looked at Brother Qi with gratitude in her beautiful eyes, and a charming smile returned to her rosy face.

"Hehe, yes, yes, she's your woman. I promise it won't happen again. Is that alright?"

The evil dragon saw that Brother Qi was truly angry. For the sake of his interests, he couldn't turn against him. No matter how much he despised and looked down on Brother Qi, the clown who cried at his family's grave, he still needed Brother Qi, the leader of the Six Doors, to protect him if he wanted to continue to be arrogant in this small area.

"Ding--"

Seeing the evil dragon raise his glass in apology, Brother Qi snorted coldly, picked up his glass and clinked it with the other's, considering it a closed chapter.

"Hehe..." The evil dragon chuckled as he took a sip of his drink and put down his glass. "To be honest, after I suffered such a huge loss, I originally wanted to get back at him. I even had someone investigate him. I was shocked by what I found out. That guy is a real lecherous devil. He has over a dozen lovers, from recent college graduates to sultry bar owners in their thirties, flight attendants, doctors, celebrities, and female employees... He really doesn't discriminate; he keeps them all."

Upon hearing this, Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin exchanged astonished glances, completely bewildered. They truly hadn't expected Gao Dongxu to be so promiscuous, even keeping a woman nearing forty as a mistress. It was rather unbelievable.

"But I must say, the women that kid keeps are all stunning beauties, especially those two in his antique shop... They're fucking infuriating. How come I always run into such gems?" the dragon cursed enviously and jealously.

Yu Jiaqin's beautiful eyes sparkled as she smiled and said softly, "I've met the eldest daughter of the Fu family. She is indeed a rare beauty. Whether it's her appearance, figure, height, or temperament, she is a first-rate beauty."

It's said that the reason Young Master Gao got involved in the South Mine was because this Miss Fu offered herself as his mistress, successfully dragging Young Master Gao into it.

Brother Qi glanced with a smile at Yu Jiaqin, who was clearly rubbing salt into the wound of the evil dragon and seeking revenge for the previous humiliation.

Sure enough, the evil dragon said angrily with a grim expression, "Damn it, I've been planning this for so long and spent so much manpower and resources, and in the end he reaped the rewards. If my sister hadn't forbidden me from taking revenge on him, I really wouldn't have been able to swallow this insult."

Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin exchanged another glance. Brother Qi, while picking up some food, asked casually, "Is there any special meaning behind this?"

"What else can be said? That kid's two paintings fetched a sky-high price of 5 billion, and he actually paid 1 billion in taxes. I don't know what kind of luck he had, but he actually got a good review from the Emperor." The evil dragon complained with a constipated and depressed look.

Both Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin were shocked. They really didn't expect Gao Dongxu to be so willing to spend so much. That was a billion yuan. An ordinary person's monthly income is eight thousand yuan, and they can only earn five million yuan in their whole life.

Well, this young master of the Gao family is indeed extraordinary. This completely impressed Brother Qi, who came from a poor family, and Xiao Qin from the fisherman's family. He really doesn't care about money.

"I have to say, that kid is really generous, a billion! And he still has to pay taxes. I don't know if he's stupid or crazy..." Even Evil Dragon couldn't help but mock.

"The money we earn from working ourselves to the bone all day long can't even match the money he makes from those bottles and jars he casually buys from street stalls. Sometimes it's really infuriating to think about it."

Hearing the words of those who had previously mocked Gao Dongxu as a street antique dealer, but now expressed envy and jealousy, Brother Qi and Yu Jiaqin felt even more contempt for the evil dragon.

Arrogant and conceited, greedy and insatiable, fierce in appearance but cowardly in reality, he is afraid to risk his life for great things but will risk his life for small gains.

"I heard you and that kid have a pretty good relationship?" the evil dragon asked Brother Qi with a smile.

Brother Qi frowned slightly, looked at the evil dragon and said, "Not bad. What, do you have any ideas?"

"That's why my second sister told me to get to know him better and try to make peace." The evil dragon pouted, looking reluctant, but his eyes gleamed with greed.

Brother Qi sneered inwardly. He knew that Gao Dongxu had no good feelings towards this evil dragon, and could even be described as full of contempt and disdain.

Regardless of what these two siblings are planning, Gao Dongxu is not someone to be trifled with.
