My Arrogant Young Lady
Page 229
The rich young man has no right to mention money in front of Li Bihui. He has even less right to mention money in front of me.
"I heard that Young Master Hou's family has at least a billion yuan. In Jiangnan, he can be considered a big shot." The security manager immediately told me about the rich young master's background. He was a kind-hearted person. He had already seen my feelings for their boss Zhang and was afraid that I might offend the rich young master.
"Does having a few billion yuan mean you can do whatever you want in Jiangnan? I wonder what the Wang family of Jiangnan is all about." Li Bihui smiled, referring to the Wang family, one of the four major families in China.
“Miss, Young Master Hou is definitely not comparable to the Wang family of Jiangnan. However, looking around, Young Master Hou is really well-connected in Jiangnan. I heard that Young Master Hou has a good relationship with the second young master of the Wang family of Jiangnan. This person is really not someone you can afford to offend.” The security manager saw Li Bihui’s disdain and gave a wry smile.
I thought to myself, "You're quite knowledgeable. You even know about the Wang family of Jiangnan. But so what if you're Interpol agents? Your salaries probably don't even compare to what they spend on drinks in one night."
"Young Master Wang the Second?" Upon hearing the security manager's words, Li Bihui couldn't help but mentally list the important figures in the Wang family. But aside from vaguely recognizing the head of the Wang family, the heir apparent, and Wang Xiaojiu, he had no recollection of Young Master Wang the Second.
"Sister Zhang Xuan, please don't refuse my offer. This 100 million yuan deal is no small sum. Aren't you going to give me even a little bit of a share? I came here because of you. If you're so heartless, I won't do business with you next time." On the other side, when Young Master Hou saw Zhang Xuan withdraw her hand, the smile on his face immediately froze. He stared directly into Zhang Xuan's eyes and uttered a series of words that were half-threatening.
"Hehe, Young Master Hou, what do you take me for? Both our LL Group and OT Group can make a profit in this business. If you're really after me, then you're probably going to be disappointed. If your OT Group wants to withdraw its investment, there's nothing I, Zhang Xuan, can do." Looking at Young Master Hou's half-threatening gaze, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust.
Since arriving in Jiangnan, knowing she had no hope of getting into university, she found a job at a company and worked tirelessly from the bottom up. Over the past two years, through her hard work, she finally rose to the position of Vice President of the LL Group. She didn't get this position because of her looks, but because of her indomitable spirit.
Over the past two years, countless young men from prominent families have pursued her ardently. Even the boss of LL Group personally hinted to her that he has a son about her age, studying abroad. He suggested that if she considered his son, she might become the president of LL Group.
But she refused them all. No matter how handsome or well-connected the suitors were, she always kept the person in her heart in her mind. She had told that person that she would become exceptionally good, that she would become worthy of him. Compared to the person in her heart, no other man could compare to even a tenth of him.
Soon, she'll be able to buy her own Porsche sports car. She'll drive that car back north herself and shower him with bundles of cash.
Tell him loudly, "Your sister is back to take care of you!"
She had someone in her heart, and the more this young master Hou pestered her, the more disgusted she became. And this young master Hou was also the person who had been pursuing her most fervently in recent months.
"Alright, Zhang Xuan. I understand what you mean, but I won't give up." After giving Zhang Xuan a deep look, Young Master Hou turned and walked towards us.
Zhang Xuan watched as Young Master Hou left without even glancing in our direction. She still had to finish a proposal for a new cosmetic product, which she was scheduled to introduce to the company's boss and shareholders that afternoon.
"Ungrateful wretch." He said this viciously as Young Master Hou and his entourage walked past us.
"Brother Xi, do you want me to help you get rid of your love rival?" Li Bihui glanced at the passing Young Master Hou and a wicked smile appeared on her face.
Perhaps because girls tend to enjoy gossip, Li Bihui immediately became quite interested when she saw that I actually liked this kind of girl. And because of this little bit of gossip, the sadness in Li Bihui's heart lessened considerably.
I brought her to see Zhang Xuan in the hope that Li Bihui wouldn't be too grieving over her father's death. Firstly, to find Li Bihui something interesting to do. Secondly, to let her see Zhang Xuan, whom I've been thinking about for a long time. But I don't want to see Zhang Xuan right now. I'm already happy to see she's doing well, and I don't want to disturb her peaceful life.
After all, the matter of Oda Seiji has not yet been resolved.
I glanced at Young Master Hou, then led Li Bihui and the security manager toward the elevator they were about to enter. Seeing my bulging waist, the security manager immediately said to me, "Mr. Wang Xi, that Young Master Hou is someone you can't afford to offend. Don't do anything rash."
“I’m not going to cause him any trouble. I just have a feeling he might say bad things about Zhang Xuan, and I want to hear what he has to say,” I said.
Just as I expected, as soon as we stepped into the elevator where Young Master Hou was, I heard him start cursing. His gentlemanly demeanor earlier was all an act; one glance at his eyes told me he was just like many of the wealthy young men I knew. These people, because they're rich, are inherently arrogant. Zhang Xuan was just an ordinary girl; she rejected someone like Young Master Hou, so he was bound to be unhappy.
"Damn it, that bitch Zhang Xuan is shameless. I, Young Master Hou, have taken a liking to her, and she actually dared to reject me. Is her family worthless? Does she have no background? The car she drives is just a beat-up Beetle, isn't it? Damn it, if it weren't for the fact that I was interested in her body and wanted to have some fun with her, would she really think someone with her background could marry into a wealthy family?"
Upon hearing Young Master Hou's words, his subordinates immediately laughed, "Young Master Hou, that President Zhang is just an ordinary person. She's definitely not qualified to marry into your Hou family. She's only qualified to be played with by you."
"Exactly! Does she really think she can marry into our Hou family? If her family's assets weren't hundreds of millions, would my old man even be interested? Damn it, what's she pretending for, a worthless loser? The money I gamble away every month is enough for Zhang Xuan to work hard for a year." Young Master Hou said viciously.
“Young Master Hou, don’t be angry. Don’t lower yourself to her level. She may seem reserved, but she’s probably already been used by other women. She’s not good enough for you, so don’t waste your time on her,” said one of Young Master Hou’s men.
"No, the more unattainable a woman is, the more I want her. Once I get her, I want her to be given to Second Young Master Wang so he can torment her to his heart's content," Young Master Hou said after thinking for a moment.
"Hehe, that Second Young Master Wang is quite the player. If Zhang Xuan falls into his hands, she'll be in big trouble," said one of Young Master Hou's men.
"But how can we get Zhang Xuan?" As I spoke, the elevator stopped several times along the way, and our elevator had already reached the lobby on the first floor.
"Let's get tough. If you keep pretending, we're not talking business anymore. Or we can drug you, have our fun, and then send you a few bags to get rid of you," Hou Gongzi's subordinate said to Hou Gongzi as they prepared to leave the elevator.
"Hehe..." Li Bihui, who was next to me, couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Young Master Hou and the others said.
"Hmm?" When Li Bihui laughed, her laughter was full of sarcasm. And such a sarcastic laugh was extremely unpleasant to them.
When they discovered that we were eavesdropping, and that some of them were making disdainful remarks, Young Master Hou and his men immediately glared at them with anger.
"It's over..." The security manager's face turned pale as he realized Li Bihui had deliberately provoked him. He knew this Young Master Hou; he was a wealthy young master with billions in assets and connections to the Wang family, one of the four major families. Even Interpol might not be as capable as them...
Chapter 385 Superstar Shan Shan
"Brother Xi, let me teach these bastards a lesson for you." Li Bihui sneered, his face showing disdain. Then he became smug again, ready to teach Young Master Hou and his men a lesson.
I frowned slightly when I saw Li Bihui standing up for me. This young master Hou actually dared to bully my Zhang Xuan; I definitely had to teach them a lesson.
I heard that Young Master Hou is affiliated with the Second Young Master Wang of the Wang family, and the Wang family in China has always been a subordinate family of our overseas Wang family. If I want to teach Young Master Hou a lesson, I only need to give Second Young Master Wang a heads-up; I don't need to lift a finger myself.
Seeing that Li Bihui was about to teach them a lesson for me, I felt a little touched. However, not wanting Li Bihui to get into trouble because of me, I frowned and said to her, "Hui'er, have you forgotten your current status?"
Li Bihui naturally understood what I meant. The moment we left the ancient town in Jiangnan, Li Xiaoyao issued a warrant for Li Bihui's arrest throughout China. If Li Bihui were to make a move, her identity as a Fusion Stage expert would certainly be exposed. The police in China are not to be trifled with; then it would be difficult for us to leave Jiangnan to find the treasure Father had pointed out to us.
"I forgot, my current identity is..." Hearing my reminder, Li Bihui finally remembered her place. She was used to being bossy and domineering. She still considered herself the number two person in Aurora.
"Come on, I have my own ways of teaching them a lesson." With that, I took Li Bihui's hand and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Just as we were about to leave, Young Master Zhou and his men immediately called out to us. Then, five of Young Master Zhou's men surrounded us. Young Master Zhou glanced at Li Bihui's beautiful face and her refined demeanor, and paused slightly. Then, a wicked smile appeared on his face as he said, "Beautiful lady, I heard you're going to teach us a lesson?"
"I won't lecture you, I was wrong..." Knowing her current special status, Li Bihui quickly apologized to him. Then she avoided his gaze and prepared to leave.
"No, no, no, you did nothing wrong. What did you do wrong? A beauty like you can certainly teach my young master a lesson if you want. But what's the meaning of this friend of yours? He seems very arrogant." Young Master Zhou glanced greedily at Li Bihui, then looked coldly at me.
Knowing that this young master Hou was not someone to be trifled with, and that we had just said we would teach him a lesson in front of him, the security manager's expression changed. He immediately said to young master Hou, "Young master Hou, these two are Interpol officers here to handle a case. They are not saying they want to teach you a lesson; you have misunderstood."
"Hmm?" The security manager was recognized by Young Master Hou. Upon hearing the security manager's words, Young Master Hou sneered, "Interpol, so what if you're so great?"
"Interpol, they're pretty impressive, aren't they?" the security manager said after a moment's thought.
"Heh, just a loser. His annual salary is less than what I lose in a month of gambling. I doubt they could afford my Lamborghini even if they earned it for several years," said the young master Hou.
When Young Master Hou said that, I couldn't help but smile. If Young Master Hou said that Interpol was poor, he would be sorely mistaken.
To put it simply, the account I gave Wesley now has 20,000 yuan in it. Interpol handles cases all over the world, constantly traveling. They are both guardians of the world and explorers. Their salaries aren't high, but if they find treasure, according to Interpol headquarters regulations, they can keep it as their private property.
As for Wesley, I heard he has a hobby of collecting sports cars. So far, he already owns four pretty good sports cars.
As for me, An Yao, Wang Che, Wang Huan, Wang You, and Wang Yu, we all share a common personality.
I don't argue with idiots; I only discuss winning and losing with like-minded people.
Seeing that Li Bihui had bumped into Young Master Hou, a number of people from LL Group had already gathered to watch. I immediately pulled Li Bihui up and said, "Hui'er, let's go."
"Wait, did we say you could leave?" Just as we were about to leave, Young Master Hou immediately blocked my way again with his men.
"Brother Xi, I want to break their bones." I didn't want to cause any more trouble. But Li Bihui had a bad temper. She only frowned slightly and said to me in Korean.
“Hui’er, your apology was good. There’s no need for us to stoop to their level. They’re arrogant. I’ll just tell the Wang family later. Now, let’s hurry up and find a way to leave. Once we find the treasure Father mentioned, we’ll rejoin the main force and wipe out Oda Seiji. We can deal with this little matter later.” I replied in Korean.
Seeing Li Bihui and me talking in Korean, which Hou Gongzi and his men couldn't understand at all, Hou Gongzi was certain that what I was saying wasn't nice, and he immediately became furious.
As soon as he lit a cigarette, Young Master Hou jabbed my sternum twice and said, "Interpol officer, are you really that amazing? I'm going to mess with you now, so come and arrest me!"
"Sir, my friend misspoke. I'm sorry." My sternum had only just begun to heal, and the way that young master Hou poked me was still painful. But I'm good at enduring pain, so I forced a smile and said to him.
"You worthless loser, you think you're so great just because you're an Interpol agent? This is China, not your Interpol, understand?" Young Master Hou looked extremely smug as he saw the growing crowd.
"I know." I nodded gently.
"My God, isn't that Young Master Hou from OT Group? He's really something. How dare he bully an Interpol officer like that."
"Yes, I've heard that Young Master Hou of OT Group is a force to be reckoned with in Jiangnan. He really is remarkable."
"Young Master Hou, he's incredibly handsome."
The LL Group deals in cosmetics. Naturally, there are many beautiful women in the group. Young Master Hou never expected him to be so arrogant, bullying us like this without anyone daring to utter a sound.
At this moment, Young Master Hou appeared even more smug.
Taking a deep drag of his cigarette, Young Master Hou sneered and poked my sternum again, saying, "What did you just say? You said you were going to teach me a lesson? I'm standing right in front of you now, come and teach me a lesson!"
“You bastard, Brother Xi, let me teach him a lesson. At worst, we'll just run away after we've taught him a lesson. Those Chinese police can't do anything to us,” Li Bihui said to me in Korean.
"I'll think about it." I was also a little annoyed after hearing Li Bihui's words.
I almost hit that young master Hou when he touched my hand, Zhang Xuan. But I was afraid Li Bihui's identity would be exposed, so I only followed him into the elevator and eavesdropped on their conversation. I was planning to have the Wang family teach them a lesson later. But now they've got me entangled with them, and if I don't deal with them, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave.
At that very moment, a Ferrari sports car suddenly stopped in front of the LL Group. Then, a stylishly dressed woman wearing sunglasses walked in.
As soon as the girl walked in, two cars quickly stopped behind her, followed by two burly men, a handsome man, and a slightly chubby girl.
The moment the girl stepped into the lobby of the LL Group, she exuded a powerful aura. Her appearance immediately drew the attention of everyone in the entire LL Group.
"It's the big star Shan Shan!"
"Superstar Shan Shan is here! She's currently the most popular of the four rising actresses in the entertainment industry!"
"Shanshan has been the spokesperson for our LL Group's brand for a long time, and today I finally got to see her in person!"
Even though the girl was wearing sunglasses, I recognized her at a glance. We have so many stories together, how could I possibly forget her?
When I saw her at the LL Group headquarters, I was utterly shocked.
"Shanshan, it's actually Shanshan! Holy crap, Shanshan is the hottest star in the entertainment industry right now. I've been inviting her to dinner for ages, but I haven't had a chance until now. And now, Shanshan has actually appeared at LL Group." Upon seeing Shanshan, Young Master Hou completely forgot about me and immediately looked at Shanshan with shining eyes.
When Shanshan walked towards us, she was somewhat surprised to see a large group of us gathered in the LL Group lobby. When she got closer and saw me, she was also incredibly shocked.
"Wang Xi?" Taking off her sunglasses, Shan Shan called my name in front of everyone. Then, her eyes quickly reddened slightly.
She has loved me for so long, and she will only ever love me in her life. Now, to see me at the LL Group headquarters in Mingzhu City, how could she not be thrilled…
Chapter 386 Shanshan's Godfather
"They know each other!?" Seeing the affectionate look in Shan Shan's eyes as she gazed at me, many people instantly understood this. Even Young Master Hou, noticing the unusual look in Shan Shan's eyes, had a slightly strange expression on his face.
As for the security manager next to me, he couldn't help but wipe his eyes.
Who is Shan Shan? She's one of the hottest celebrities in the entertainment industry right now.
From an unknown online streamer to the most popular female internet personality, she then transitioned to the entertainment industry, starring in a blockbuster film alongside many A-list stars in her first movie. Afterwards, Na Shanshan's career soared, starring in numerous high-quality idol dramas and endorsing several well-known brands. Now, Shanshan's earnings per film are approaching 100 million yuan. He doesn't follow celebrities, but his wife does. She's a huge fan of Shanshan and, hearing that the cosmetics company where the security manager works has connections to her, frequently begs him for her autograph. However, Shanshan is a top-tier actress; she can rake in huge sums of money wherever she goes. She rarely attends events unless it's arranged by her company.
But today, he saw Shanshan in person at the company. Moreover, the handsome young man next to him seemed to have some ordinary concern for Shanshan.
If he could ask Mr. Wang Xi to help him get an autographed photo, it should be a very easy thing.
Thinking of this, the security manager's expression changed. He quickly ran towards the elevator. He had photos of Shanshan in his office, and he had to seize the opportunity to get her autograph to show off to his wife.
If he could get Shanshan's autograph, he would become his wife's idol. As for his status at home, it would surely shine brighter as a result.
"Shanshan, I really want her autograph!"
"I want a photo with her!"
Seeing Shanshan standing right in front of me, her eyes red, many people were trembling with excitement. They were secretly preparing their phones or searching nearby for pens, hoping to get Shanshan's autograph.
