le as he seemed on the surface."With you staring at me like that, aren't you trying to steal your sister's wall" Yang Chen said with a mischievous smile."Ah"Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, then the n...Chapter 141
In the night, a black Bentley sped towards the direction of the official residence.
The Guan family and the Su family, along with two other top-tier aristocratic families, are collectively known as the Four Great Families of Jiangzhou. This demonstrates the high status of the Guan family in Jiangzhou.
At this moment, the official's residence is bustling with activity. Countless luxury cars worth millions of dollars are neatly parked in the driveway.
Today is Guan Jiashan, the head of the Guan family's 70th birthday. Although it's past eight o'clock in the evening, the birthday banquet hasn't started yet.
The grand estate was aglow with illumination, and within a lavish hall, dozens of large dining tables were filled to capacity.
Every year, Guan Zhengshan's birthday banquet is held with great fanfare, but it is basically attended by members of the Guan family. A very small number of people are those forces loyal to the Guan family.
At that moment, a black Bentley pulled into the parking lot. Compared to the million-dollar luxury cars surrounding it, it seemed out of place.
"Brother Chen, it seems the lord is celebrating something joyous" Ma Chao watched as men and women in fine clothes entered one after another. He looked at Yang Chen and said.
Yang Chen's lips curled into a slight smile: "Just in time, the officials are all here. It saves me from going to find them one by one."
"Yang Chen"
Yang Chen was just about to enter the manor when a surprised voice suddenly rang out behind him.
A young man in a crimson suit walked over. Upon confirming it was Yang Chen, his eyes were filled with astonishment.
This is the birthday banquet of the lord of the manor. Besides his own family, only families like my Wang family who are well-connected with the lord are eligible to be invited to attend the birthday banquet.
The young man suddenly looked at Yang Chen with disdain and said, “The Qin family is just a lowly, small clan. You're merely the son-in-law of the Qin family, what qualifications do you have to be here”
Only then, when the young man brought up the Wang family, did Yang Chen remember that the young man's name was Wang Jian.
On Yang Chen's first day back at the Qin family courtyard, he encountered him. Zhou Yucun still wanted to match him with Qin Xi, and even now, she had not given up on this idea.
Yang Chen didn't take Wang Jian seriously, but unexpectedly, Wang Jian was determined to provoke him.
"Without an invitation, you want to attend the master's birthday banquet"
Wang Jian took a few steps forward and stood in front of Yang Chen, saying with a mocking tone: "You wouldn't be trying to come here to eat and drink for free because you couldn't make it at the Qin family, would you"
"I hate it when people block my way, especially... dogs."
A cold light suddenly flashed in Yang Chen's eyes. Facing Yang Chen's gaze, Wang Jian felt a chill run down his spine, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat.
“You...”
Wang Jian was furious. As the eldest son of the Wang family, he was incredibly honorable. He was humiliated in public by Yang Chen!
Especially, Yang Chen even snatched the woman he had his eye on.
In his eyes, Yang Chen was just a small fry from the lowest rung of society, someone he could crush with a whim.
But he was just frightened by Yang Chen's gaze, it was his shame.
"Yang Chen, what makes you so arrogant in front of me I can control your life and death with a single word. Do you believe it or not"
At this moment, at the entrance of the estate, there were still some people who came to attend the birthday banquet. Wang Jian felt that everyone was mocking him, and instantly looked at Yang Chen arrogantly and rebuked him.
Repeated provocations had roused Yang Chen's anger. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a glint of killing intent flashed in his deep pupils.
Seeing Yang Chen remain silent, Wang Jian thought he was scared. He directly extended his right index finger and snarled, "You, kneel down and apologize now, perhaps I can spare you. Otherwise, I'll let you know the consequences of offending me!"
Yang Chen's eyes twinkled with amusement as he asked, "How severe are the consequences"
Wang Jian acted arrogantly and continued, "The Wang family is now on good terms with the government. In the whole of Jiangzhou, who dares to offend the Wang family I advise you to obediently follow what I say and don't be quick-witted."
"Oh The Wang family is so impressive"
Yang Chen said jokingly, "But I don't believe what you say. What should I do Why don't you have your Wang family head come and tell me"
Once he uttered those words, a deathly silence fell over the surroundings. he hadn't insisted on driving his grandson, Song Huayi, out of the Song family's power center, he could have befriended Yang Chen!Those families who still followed Yang Chen, such as the Huang and Ha...
