Lan Mengcheng was brought to a private room on the top floor of the club.
"Miss Lan, please come in!"
The waiter opened the door and kept his head down, not daring to look inside. It was as if there was a terrifying devil inside.
Lan Mengcheng paused for a moment and then walked in.
The scene in the private room immediately gave her a huge shock.
The Zhuang family's Zhuang Lao Taijun was sitting in the middle of the private room. She had been staying in the Zhuang family's mansion all year round. Unless there was something very important, she would never come out!
Other than that, there was also a group of unusual men standing around the Zhuang Family's Old Witch.
Zhuang Hao was standing on the left with four bodyguards behind him.
Lan Mengcheng was no stranger to them. First of all, Zhuang Hao was not weak. The four men in black were the mysterious bodyguards assigned to him by the government.
On the right side stood an old man and a young man dressed in black traditional attire.
The old man's hair was white and his face was old. He stood there with his eyes closed, looking old and decrepit.
But so long as one sensed it attentively, it wasn't difficult to notice that his aura was restrained and deeply settled. He was like an old pine tree that stood towering on a mountain with a myriad of blades, and no matter how the wind and rain battered him, he would remain unmoving!
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that this old man was an incredible expert!
Lan Mengcheng also knew that this eunuch was over a hundred years old. He came from the Imperial Palace of the late Qing Dynasty. He was a real old eunuch. His Kung Fu was mysterious and he was famous in Jianghu.
Due to the kindness of the Zhuang Family's ancestors, he decided to live in seclusion in the Zhuang Family's courtyard and became the Zhuang Family's chief steward!
Over the past few decades, he had been loyal and devoted, and he had never made any mistakes. Even Zhuang Lao Taijun addressed him respectfully as Elder Su!
As for the young man standing behind Elder Su, he was the most outstanding descendant of the Zhuang Family. His name was Zhuang Jiuxiao!
Twenty-seven years old, Halfstep True Nirvana Stage!
He was hailed as the most outstanding prodigy in the history of the Zhuang Family!
One should know that Zhuang Bifan had spent countless resources to push his cultivation to the pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage.
In comparison, Zhuang Jiuxiao did not get as many resources as Zhuang Bifan did. However, his combat power was much stronger than Zhuang Bifan.
From this, it could be seen that he was extremely talented. It was not an exaggeration to call him a genius.
What made him even more proud was that he had been ranked eighth on the Heroes of War Leaderboard for the past two years. Everyone in the Jianghu knew about him and he had earned a lot of face for the Zhuang Family.
This year, he wanted to get a better ranking. If he succeeded, his status in the Zhuang Family would rise even further!
Seeing this, Lan Mengcheng's eyes widened. Her heart was in a tight knot.
Just as Chen had expected, it was all part of Zhuang Lao Taijun's plan.
From the looks of it, Lao Taijun was determined to take Chen down the moment she made her move!
This was exactly how the old witch did things!
Swift and decisive, never sloppy or sloppy!
The last time Chen sent two people to deal with Chen, they were called S and B. That was a huge slap to Lao Taijun's face. She would never allow herself to fall into the same trap twice!
"Great-grandmother, Uncle Zhuang, Chief Steward Su, Brother Jiuxiao … Why are you all here?"
Lan Mengcheng was worried but she did not dare to show it. If Lao Taijun became suspicious, not only would Chen's efforts go to waste, the Lan Family would also be implicated.
Lao Taijun looked at Lan Mengcheng. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, she pointed at the TV on the wall and said, "It's because of this kid."
Lan Mengcheng looked at the TV and saw that Chen Xiaobei was sitting in the private room below them.
"He is Madam Diana's and my business partner. Today, he came with me to meet Deputy Wang from the Trade and Industry Bureau. Why are you here for him?" Lan Mengcheng knew but she had to play dumb.
"This kid injured Bufan! We must avenge him! I didn't hide this from you. I hope you know what's more important!" Lao Taijun said bluntly.
"Yes …" Lan Mengcheng nodded and said softly, "Everything is for the benefit of the family!"
"Mm, I'm very happy that you think that way!" Lao Taijun said calmly, "Go sit at the side. You have completed your mission by luring that kid here. Now, let's see how the Zhuang Family does things!"
Lan Mengcheng pursed her lips and retreated to the corner.
It was not easy for anyone to see her facial expression from that position. She could still stare at the TV without blinking.
Soon, a waitress walked into the room with a tray in her hand and walked towards Chen Xiaobei with a smile on her face.
"Great grandma, is this the assassin that you hired? His acting skills are pretty good! He did not show any flaws at all!
However, I still think that it's too troublesome to do this. Let me go down there and kill that kid! "Zhuang Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows and said calmly.
"Troublesome? You are a good martial artist material. Unfortunately, you are too narrow-minded and short-sighted! "Lao Taijun shook her head and said.
"This …" Zhuang Jiuxiao was taken aback.
Initially, he was proud and had high morale. Now, Lao Taijun poured a bucket of cold water on him. He did not know what to say.
Zhuang Hao said in a deep voice, "Your great grandmother's arrangement is to find out more about the enemy! If the enemy is too weak, you will not be able to kill him! If the enemy is too strong, you will be at a disadvantage! Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles! "
Upon hearing that, Zhuang Jiuxiao came to a realization. "I see now! You are really my great grandma! You are really far-sighted and far-sighted! Jiuxiao has learned a lot from you! "
The Old Witch nodded her head and said with satisfaction, "Hmm, child. Although you have many shortcomings, you are humble. Read more books to enrich your mind. You can still achieve great things in the future!"
"Yes! I, Jiuxiao, will not let you down! "
Zhuang Jiuxiao nodded his head and said respectfully, "Great grandma, you are indeed wise. That kid is only in his early twenties. It will damage our reputation if we attack him! If I'm not mistaken, this assassin is more than enough to kill him! "
Zhuang Lao Taijun smiled without saying a word.
The rest of them did not say anything as well. All of them were looking at the TV quietly.
At that moment, Lan Mengcheng was probably the most nervous person in the room.
Frowning, her palms were covered in cold sweat. She really wanted to tell Chen Xiaobei that the waitress that served the dishes was an assassin!
However, she could not do that.
…..
In the private room downstairs.
The beautiful and voluptuous female assassin came to Chen with a metal plate in her hand.
"Sir, this is today's appetizer! South African Lobster Salad …" said the female assassin with a smile.
"No! You told me the wrong name of the dish!" Chen Xiaobei shook his head and said.
"Eh? Wrong name? "Taken aback, the female assassin was taken aback. Chen Xiaobei did not play by the rules.
"This dish should be called …"
Chen Xiaobei quickly removed the metal lid of the plate. A devilish smile appeared on his face.
