My Arrogant Young Lady

After the creature raised its head high while carrying the assassin, it immediately spat out a huge red tongue. At the same time, it flung the assassin away, releasing a massive cloud of black mist.

"Hah!" A tremendous shout came from its mouth, a sound that sent chills down the spines of everyone present.

In that instant, the assassins who had been secretly following me all turned deathly pale. Gritting their teeth, dozens of pistols immediately erupted in massive flashes of light.

Just as their bullets were about to hit me, King Cobra swung its body, blocking all the bullets for me. Then, King Cobra swooped down, whipping its tail violently to sweep away the assassins who were attacking me.

When one of the assassins, suppressing immense fear, pointed his pistol at me again, he saw a flowery snake that had somehow appeared in his hand and screamed in agony.

At the same time, all the assassins who wanted to kill me screamed in agony. A dense swarm of snakes had crawled in from all directions, surrounding them.

"You, come out." I put down the jade flute, lit a cigarette, and coldly looked into the darkness.

Upon hearing my voice, a burly man rolled out of the darkness. Seeing the various snakes crawling all over his body, the burly man knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Highness, I am Zhang Biao, a subordinate of Liu Mazi, one of the nineteen powerful figures in the provincial capital. I was blind and offended Your Highness. Please spare my life, please don't kill me!" As he spoke, the burly man began kowtowing to me repeatedly, like a pestle being pounded.

At this moment, the king cobra slowly crawled back to my side. It wrapped its body around me, raising its head and staring at the big man with a ferocious look in its eyes.

Beside me was the coiled body of a king cobra. I glanced at the burly man and said coldly, "I wasn't calling you. I was calling the two rats hiding on the other side."

"What!?" Upon hearing my words, the black dragon and white wolf, who were hiding to the side, turned deathly pale.

Chapter 206 A Grand Feast

Hao Ren Group is a renowned conglomerate in northern China. Primarily engaged in pharmaceuticals, it holds an unshakeable position in the domestic pharmaceutical industry. The head of Hao Ren Group has dedicated himself to philanthropy for many years. He helps the poor, frequently donating generously to those who cannot afford medical care. Legend has it that for every penny he earns, he donates five cents to help the needy. He is a kind and truly good person. Even though the market has changed in recent years, and Hao Ren Group lost billions overnight, incurring significant debts, people still respect the head of Hao Ren Group and still show him deference.

The charity auction gala hosted by Hao Ren Group also garnered support from many prominent figures in the provincial capital. Even some wealthy individuals from other provinces, upon hearing that Hao Ren Group was preparing a charity auction gala, immediately traveled from their territories to Shenyang. This was because the auction gala was sure to attract numerous social elites. Besides powerful figures, celebrities, and underworld bosses, there were also many handsome men and beautiful women. In addition to the opportunity to network with influential people, attendees could also see the valuable treasures and rare herbs that Hao Ren had collected over the years.

It's important to know that Hao Ren Group's main business is pharmaceuticals. Over the years, Hao Yifang, the head of the Hao family, must have collected many rare and precious herbs. Legend has it that Hao Yifang possesses a ginseng root from Changbai Mountain that has grown for over a hundred years; if one could acquire that ginseng, even a dying person could live for ten more years after consuming it. Furthermore, Hao Yifang has frequently visited impoverished mountainous areas in recent years. Besides providing aid to the people in these areas, he must have also collected many valuable medicinal herbs there.

They have money and status. What do they need most? Is it health?

After all, money can be earned back, but health is something that no amount of money can buy.

Just thinking about being able to bid on some precious medicinal materials such as ginseng, lingzhi and Tian Shan snow lotus at Hao Yifang's charity gala made many people unable to help but reveal greedy eyes.

On the very night Hao Yifang was hosting his charity auction gala, two hours before the event, countless luxury cars were already parked in front of the Marriott Hotel in the provincial capital. Mercedes-Benzes, Bentleys, Rolls-Royces—from each of these expensive vehicles emerged women adorned with jewels and men whose faces radiated the confidence of successful individuals. Their children, even more so, exuded an air of wealth and status, drawing attention from many.

The "Good Guy" was currently leading a large group of young, spoiled brats like himself, waiting for something. Beside him were many scions of wealthy and powerful families, as well as numerous beautiful and alluring women. Standing at the hotel entrance, looking around, the "Good Guy" said to them, "The Wang family from overseas, I'm sure you've all heard of them, right?"

“Wang is a common surname, and there are many wealthy families with the surname Wang in our country. There are also many families with the surname Wang overseas. I wonder which Wang family you are referring to?” asked a young master from a prominent family.

"Hehe, the Wang family I'm talking about overseas is, of course, the Wang family that holds a certain position in the world. The Wang family, the biggest Wang family!" Little Good Guy said proudly.

"Brother Hao, is the Wang family you're talking about the richest and most powerful one? The Wang family that can control everything overseas?!" A noble young man's face turned pale, and he looked at Xiao Hao with great respect.

“Of course, and the person I am about to welcome is the heir of the Wang family, the eldest son of the Wang family patriarch. The biological son of the Wang family's first mother, Wang Xi!” the little good man said coldly.

"It's him!?" a nobleman exclaimed in disbelief.

"Of course it's him. You've all heard how powerful the Wang family is. And the heir of the Wang family is my best friend. We now have a company together, and he owns half of the shares. I, Little Good Guy, am working for him right now!" With a cold laugh, Little Good Guy lit a cigar, his attitude extremely arrogant.

Hearing Xiao Haoren's words shocked them all even more. They all knew that Xiao Haoren was currently setting up a film company. After capital injection, verification, and several rounds of financing, Xiao Haoren's film company already had 200 million yuan in cash before it even opened.

If Xiao Haoren's company were to open, it would undoubtedly make a fortune in the current booming film market. Many say that Haoren Group was once glorious, but has now declined. And he, Xiao Haoren, will be the pillar that revitalizes the Hao family.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a member of the family immediately grabbed Xiao Hao's leg and exclaimed, "No wonder! No wonder your career has been going so smoothly lately. It turns out you have the Wang family backing you up. We heard a while ago that the third young lady of the Wang family didn't like you and was about to break off the engagement. There were a lot of scoundrels kicking you when you're down, talking badly about you behind your back. Brother Hao, if I hear anyone saying anything bad about you now, I, Zhou Yuzhe, will be the first to take him down! Brother Hao, if we see the young master of the Wang family later, please introduce us to him!"

"Hehe, let me see how things go. But let me make this clear beforehand, the heir of our Wang family holds a noble position, and not just anyone can be his friend. I can only try to help you at most; whether he's willing to be your friend or not, I don't know," the kind-hearted man said coldly.

"Just being able to become a familiar face to him would be good enough!" As he spoke, cold sweat streamed down the young man's forehead.

You see, he was incredibly pleased when he heard that Xiao Haoren had been jilted by the third young lady of the Wang family. His favorite thing to do was to kick someone when they're down, and when he learned of Xiao Haoren's abrupt rejection, he immediately went to their circle of spoiled brats and spread rumors about Xiao Haoren. Then he opened a bottle of Lafite and quietly listened to everyone gossiping about her. This feeling was even more exhilarating than visiting a dreamlike paradise and playing with stunning beauties.

Now, although Xiao Haoren was jilted by the third young lady of the Wang family, he has unexpectedly benefited from this misfortune, gaining access to the Wang family and becoming sworn brothers with their heir. The Wang family is no ordinary wealthy family; besides training many young masters to become the family's new generation of main force, they also possess their own army overseas. Furthermore, they maintain good relations with several major international powers. Internationally, they can practically control everything.

For the Wang family to deal with a young master from a small family like him would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Thinking back to how he had led the way in saying many bad things about Xiao Haoren a few days ago, Zhou Yuzhe turned pale with fear.

As for the seemingly kind-hearted man, he was as cunning as a devil. He naturally knew that Zhou Yuzhe had previously spoken ill of him with his men. Thinking about the charity auction his grandfather was hosting, and how Wang Xi would soon come over and hug him in front of everyone, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He'd just say a few bad things about the kid to Wang Xi later; Wang Xi wouldn't need to deal with him, plenty of others would take the initiative to do it for him.

Thinking of this, the little good-natured man's smile turned smug. Zhou Yuzhe and many other spoiled brats who had spoken ill of him before were all terrified at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, a Rolls-Royce, accompanied by countless other luxury cars, pulled up in front of the hotel. As soon as the Rolls-Royce stopped, a young man strode over and opened the door for it.

Then, a young and beautiful woman stepped out. Her jewelry glittered, and she exuded an imposing air of nobility. On the other side of the carriage door, a pretty young woman gracefully alighted. Her nobility was no less than the woman's, and her face held the dignity and poise only royalty possessed.

"Yehenara..." A nobleman's son immediately covered his mouth, watching as the languid and graceful beautiful woman was helped into the hotel by a girl as beautiful as a poem or painting. Behind them were many pretty young girls with fresh and elegant demeanors. And many steady, aloof young men followed as attendants into the hotel.

The aura they exuded instantly overshadowed the entire opulent Marriott Hotel lobby.

"See them? They are the Empress Dowager and the eldest daughter of the Yehenara family. And the eldest daughter of the Yehenara family, Yehenara Xi'er, is engaged to Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family. One of them is the most powerful newly rich family, and the other is an ancient royal family. If they become one family, the Wang family's power will probably become much stronger." Seeing the Empress Dowager and Yehenara Xi'er surrounded by many young experts, Xiao Haoren's expression was full of smugness.

"Brother Hao!" Upon hearing Xiao Haoren's words, the many spoiled young men and beautiful women surrounding him immediately found it difficult to breathe.

Soon, another black Maybach, accompanied by a large number of other black cars, pulled up in front of the hotel. As the door opened, a cold-faced young man stepped out, exuding an aura of icy indignation. Simultaneously, a multitude of burly men sprang from the following black cars. They tightly surrounded the young man, following him into the hotel.

"Whose young master is this? He has such a unique air about him." A beautiful woman gazed at him with affection, her eyes practically fluttering with admiration for the handsome young man.

"Wang You, Wang Xi's sixth brother. Within a month, he took over the four major families and nineteen other large and small forces in the provincial capital. Now, Wang You is the most powerful man in the provincial capital, and also the Wang You of Liuli!" The little good-natured boy felt the chill emanating from the young man and trembled slightly.

"What?! He's the legendary Wang You from 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'?! This Wang You is only Wang Xi's sixth brother, yet he has such an aura just by appearing. If Wang Xi were to appear, wouldn't he be so radiant that even the sun and moon would pale in comparison?!" The young men and women beside Xiao Haoren exclaimed in surprise.

"Of course. After all, he is the heir of the Wang family." The good-natured boy was smug, thinking that he would be able to make Wang Xi proud tonight.

Soon, a Mercedes-Benz G63 screeched to a halt in front of the hotel. The rugged style of the car seemed completely out of place with the young woman who stepped out. She was delicate and beautiful, her petite figure evoking a sense of tenderness at first glance. However, her long, silvery-white hair and cold eyes conveyed a sense of mystery and aloofness, making one dare only admire her from afar, never harboring any disrespect.

At the same time, five young men stepped out of a Mercedes-Benz van behind them. They exuded an aura of power, like Mount Everest, a hurricane, lightning, thunder, and fire; each of them held a chilling gaze. These five men alone were enough to spark endless speculation about the girl's identity and background.

Taking a deep breath, everyone watched them enter the hotel without daring to speak. Finally, as the girl led her five subordinates into the hotel, a young man said, "This little girl has an extraordinary air about her; she must be from some super family, right? Her aura is on par with Yehenara Xier and Wang You."

"You're quite knowledgeable, because she is Wang Xi's second younger sister, the third young lady of the Wang family. Do you know who the old man of Wang Xi's second younger sister, An Yao, is?" The kind-hearted man smiled.

“An Yao, I’ve heard of An Yao. Her family is part of our Northern Army…” A young man’s eyes widened immediately.

"That's enough." The kind-hearted boy raised his hand to stop him with a touch of arrogance.

"Yes, we have no right to comment on An Yao's family background..." the young man said, his face pale.

As one outstanding young man or woman after another, all closely connected to the Wang family's heir, entered, everyone's anticipation for his arrival grew even stronger. The sons of noble families secretly resolved to cling to the Wang family heir's coattails at all costs. The young ladies, on the other hand, thought to themselves, "If the Wang family heir's two younger siblings are so beautiful and handsome, then the heir himself must be even more striking." Whether for his looks or his family's background, they would employ their charms today. They'd heard that the Wang family patriarch had seven beautiful wives; even if they didn't aspire to be the heir's wife, being a concubine or a confidante would be quite nice.

The more envious the young men and women were, the more smug Xiao Haoren became. Watching Wang Xi's net worth steadily rise, Xiao Haoren was inwardly ecstatic.

But at that very moment, Xiao Haoren's expression suddenly changed. A small van suddenly came to a slow stop in front of the hotel. When the van stopped at the hotel entrance, even the hotel's designated driver seemed a little bewildered. In an instant, the young men and women around Xiao Haoren all revealed disdainful looks, "Whose children are these? Why are they showing up in such a shabby old car?"

"..." After hearing what the young men and women said, Xiao Haoren's face immediately turned as red as fire...

Chapter 207 The Little Good Guy's Disdain

And I, in the car, had already spotted the little good boy who had been waiting for me. Through the car window, I saw him staring at me with his big, round eyes.

"What's wrong?" I muttered in surprise. Then I looked around, trying to find a good parking spot to park the car and get out.

Three days had passed since then. After defeating the Black Dragon, I had been eagerly awaiting the Hao family's charity auction. The kind-hearted man had already arranged for me to walk around the back exhibition hall on the day of the auction. As long as I had enough money, he would let me be the first to choose what I wanted. Although he was quite stingy with the money, he had already given me privileges far exceeding those of others.

You should know that many other important people are attending the charity auction tonight. The fact that this "good Samaritan" granted me this privilege shows my status in his eyes far surpasses that of all the other guests at the charity auction tonight.

"Brother Xi, there's a pretty good parking spot over there!" Black Dragon, sitting in the back, suddenly pointed to an empty space and said.

"Great!" I glanced at the open space and quickly drove the car towards it and backed it up.

At that moment, the young men and women around the good Samaritan gasped again. They watched my car fall into the open space, their eyes filled with utter contempt.

Meanwhile, the hotel valet parking attendant was annoyed. He frowned, glanced at my car, and then said angrily, "That parking space is reserved for Zhao Huangdi, the number one boss in the provincial capital. What right does that beat-up car have to park in Zhao Huangdi's space? No way, I'm going to kick it out!"

"No, you can't send him away." A helpless voice came from behind.

"Why?" the valet driver asked in surprise.

"Because he is the nephew of Zhao Huangdi, the number one big brother in the provincial capital, and Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family!" said the kind-hearted boy.

"What!?" Upon hearing Xiao Hao's words, the valet parking attendant and the surrounding young men and women all paled. They stared at Xiao Hao in astonishment for a long time, then glanced at my parked car. Then, one of the young men suddenly smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Hao, you're not joking, are you? The owner of that shabby car is Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family, whom you've been bragging about for so long?"

"What do you mean by that?" Upon hearing the word "boasting," the kind-hearted boy's face fell.

"It's nothing..." A hint of disdain flashed in the young man's eyes, then he smirked.

Seeing the young man looking at him like that, the kind-hearted man felt a sense of helplessness. After all, the young man had been bragging about me for so long, expecting me to make a grand entrance in the Ferrari that Emperor Zhao had given me, complete with the five eights on the license plate symbolizing my status. He had painstakingly paved the way for my arrival, only to find me wobbling along in a 50,000 yuan minivan.

I thought to myself, it's not a big deal if I don't have a nice car, after all, I'm of high status. Even without a nice car, my aura is enough to intimidate them.

Then the kind-hearted man threw away his cigar and rushed over to greet me warmly. But when he opened the car door for me, he was stunned when he saw the people in my car.

In terms of looks, I'm not bad-looking. And Liuli and Wang Che, whom I'm with, are both stunningly beautiful.

However, Wang Che was dressed in men's clothing at this moment. Although she looked very beautiful, she paled in comparison to before. She even had a small mustache stuck on her face. That mustache made her look indescribably sleazy. Xiao Haoren clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could rip Wang Che's mustache off.

And behind me were Runtu and Heilong. Runtu himself looked rather rustic, so everyone called him Runtu. Heilong was even more mismatched in his attire: a green short-sleeved shirt and pink skinny jeans from some unknown brand. On his feet, he wore extremely bright red sneakers. When Heilong got out of the car, he seemed quite pleased with himself.

With so many oddballs around me, even the most beautiful Liuli can't keep up. Their influence has diminished Liuli's original refined and elegant aura.

Having already witnessed the grandeur of the Yehenara family, Wang You's family, and An Yao's family, all of Xiao Haoren's friends laughed when they saw us step out of the van.

One of the young men even shouted to the good guy, "Brother Hao, is this the Wang Xi you were talking about? He looks really awesome!"

"..." Upon hearing the young man's words, Xiao Haoren immediately turned around and glared at them fiercely. Then, he vented his anger on Heilong and Runtu, "Young Master, why did you drive such a beat-up car and bring two such idiots with you? If you're short on cash lately, you could have just told me. I can lend you my Maserati GC, and my subordinate Gangzi has a group of good brothers around him. Damn it, you've made me lose face..."

Seeing the little good-natured boy complaining to me, and then seeing his friend rudely mocking me, I smiled and didn't take it to heart. "The car my uncle gave me was scratched by me, and because it was so badly scratched, I took it to get it repainted. And these two brothers of mine are the brothers who will fight alongside me to build an empire in the future, so please don't look down on them."

So far, my Wang Xi group has gained two new members: Wang Che and Hei Long. Wang Che came to see me from home this time, her purpose being to protect me until I return to the Wang family. Wang Che and I are close; she's my younger sister and doesn't have many followers, so she joined my Wang Xi group.

As for the Black Dragon, after I summoned the King Serpent that night, he was so frightened that he never dared to oppose me again. It was quite a coincidence. The Black Dragon's hometown was in Black Mountain. In his mind, someone who could subdue even a giant serpent like the Dragon King would have no difficulty subduing a small-time hoodlum like him. Besides, my King Serpent could rival a god-level expert; compared to my King Serpent, the Black Dragon was practically insignificant.

Black Dragon admitted defeat; his arrogant heart was instantly trampled into the deepest abyss by me. In the days leading up to our charity auction, after drinking with me for several days, he had willingly become my follower.

Since nothing particularly noteworthy happened during those days, I didn't give any details.

But while Heilong bowed to me, he remained arrogant in front of others. The moment he saw this well-dressed, seemingly nice guy dare to look down on him, Heilong immediately flew into a rage. "Fuck you! Who do you think you are? So what if your family has a little money? What makes you so great about yourself? You're just the young master of the Hao Ren Group, right? Who do you think you are? If you're so tough, come try your luck at Beicheng No. 13 Middle School! See if I don't mess with you!"

Although the kind-hearted boy had a bad temper, there were too many noble children present. He couldn't be bothered to argue with a hoodlum like Black Dragon. He just glared at Black Dragon and then sighed helplessly, saying to me, "Young Master, you're too willful..."

"Brother, didn't I tell you? People these days are incredibly materialistic. Even if you're the heir of the Wang family, they'll still look down on you if you don't have a decent car." Wang Che chuckled gleefully at Xiao Hao's helpless expression.

"Whatever. I'll leave as soon as I buy what I need." With a smile, I led Wang Che, Liuli, Heilong, and Runtu into the hotel.

But when we reached the hotel entrance, a handsome young man immediately stopped me. He was very tall, a head taller than me.

He adopted a haughty demeanor, looking down at me with his eyes lowered, "Brother, you're the heir of the Wang family?"

“No. I’m just an ordinary person,” I said.

"Haha, what did you say?!" The young man laughed immediately upon hearing my words.

“I said, I’m just an ordinary person,” I said.
