As the box's door was closed from the outside, Sun Wen looked at Tan Xiu with a dumbfounded expression. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes and heard it with her own ears, she would never have believed that the dignified manager of the Everlasting Feast Hall would be so respectful to Tang Xiu and call him "Boss".
"You … you are?"
Sun Wen's lips squirmed as she spoke with an incredulous expression.
"Can you shut up?" Li Laoshan angrily retorted. "Brother Tang is the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss!"
Sun Wen gulped down a mouthful of saliva. She had some knowledge about the Everlasting Feast Hall, the most upscale restaurant in Shanghai. Not only was the Everlasting Feast Hall only a branch in Shanghai, but it also had branches in the Imperial Capital. She heard that the Everlasting Feast Hall also had branches in Jingmen Island and Hong Kong.
'Tan Xiu is the Boss?
Then … '
'He's probably very rich!'
All of a sudden …
She realized how stupid she was just now, and how shameful she was to say those words. She had just looked down on Tan Xiu, yet Tan Xiu turned out to be the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss. It was like an invisible slap that fiercely slapped her face.
It must be known.
Tan Xiu looked to be in his early twenties, yet he had already become the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss. What was his family's background? It was very likely that his family's status was even more terrifying, right?
She finally understood why Li Laoshan could become friends with Tan Xiu, and why he was angry with her just now.
She …
She had really shamed him.
Sun Wen's expression was a bit pale. She cautiously glanced at Li Laoshan and said with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Mr. Tang. I was wrong."
Tan Xiu waved his hand and smilingly said, "It's nothing. Didn't I tell you that we're a family? You're Old Brother Li's woman, so we'll be friends in the future. "
The anger on Li Laoshan's face faded a lot. He looked at Tan Xiu with a wry smile and said, "Brother Tang, unusual people do unusual things. It's really rare to see a young man as old as you who still has such a broad mind. What's more incredible is that every time I'm with you, I don't even feel the age difference between us. It's as if I'm communicating with someone of the same age. "
Tan Xiu laughed involuntarily and said, "Old Brother Li, do you mean I look old?"
"Cough, cough …"
Li Laoshan was choked by Tan Xiu's words.
They finished their lunch quickly because they didn't drink. After the meal, Li Laoshan told Tan Xiu that they would leave Shanghai the next day and go to the Imperial Capital to make some preparations in advance. Tan Xiu went to Chi Nan's office and saw the five children sitting obediently on the sofa. Tan Xiu looked at Chi Nan and said with a smile, "You've worked hard."
"Boss, it's my honor to serve you," said Chi Nan with a smile.
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "Since it's your honor, I'll give you another task. Help me send a message back to the Everlasting Feast Hall's HQ. Ask them to help me investigate the mafia in YDL, focusing on the Cubo Clan and the M Country's Brauns Group. The more detailed the information, the better. "
Chi Nan's expression moved and she quickly said, "Boss, I have some knowledge about these two forces, but not much."
"Tell me about it!"
Tan Xiu looked surprised.
"The mafia in YDL is the country's largest gang with more than 100,000 members," said Chi Nan. "The Cubo Clan is one of the top three mafia clans in YDL and has a great heritage. I've killed some people before, and they were all members of the Cubo Clan. Additionally, the M Country's Brauns Group also has many business channels, most of which are in the pharmaceutical and liquor business. As far as I know, the Brauns Group owns dozens of large wineries. "
"These two forces have a large number of thugs and have their own security companies. They are even inextricably linked to some international mercenary organizations. Few people abroad are willing to go against them. "
A chilling light flashed in Tan Xiu's eyes as he lightly said, "These two forces are now going against the Magnificent Tang Corp. I don't mind dealing with them if they dare to touch my bottom line. "
Chi Nan's expression slightly changed as she said in a deep voice, "Boss, had it been a few months ago, perhaps our Everlasting Feast Hall would be a bit afraid of them. But now … hmph! "
Tan Xiu nodded. He understood the meaning behind Chi Nan's words. Recently, hundreds of core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall had been imparted with cultivation techniques, so their strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. In the past, if they could fight against a hundred people alone, they would be undefeatable. But now, every single one of them possessed terrifying strength. If they were to go all out, even these two factions would suffer great losses.
"Let's wait and see. Investigate them thoroughly first."
"I'll immediately send the news back to the HQ." Chi Nan nodded.
A few minutes later.
Tan Xiu left the Everlasting Feast Hall with Tang Xiaojin's group of five. After returning home by car, he told the five of them to stay at home and then left the Bluestar Villa Complex.
Shanghai First Public Hospital.
Tan Xiu rushed to the Inpatient Department, where Yuan Chuling and the others were staying. What puzzled him was that Yuan Chuling wasn't on the sickbed. Only two of Yuan Chuling's classmates were lying on the beds next to them.
"Who are you looking for?"
A young man curiously looked at Tan Xiu and asked.
"I'm Yuan Chuling's friend. Where did he go?" asked Tan Xiu.
"He said that staying in the ward was too boring, so he went outside to chat with the nurses," said the young man. "You … are you the Tan Xiu that Yuan Chuling mentioned? Eldest Bro Tang?"
"That's right. It's me!" Tan Xiu laughed.
The young man quickly propped up his arms and sat up. Then, he gratefully said, "Eldest Bro Tang, thank you for everything you've done for us. I've heard about what happened afterward. If it weren't for you, we would've been in a lot of trouble with the school. We wouldn't have been able to vent the resentment inside our hearts. "
"You're Yuan Chuling's classmates, so we're not outsiders," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "Alright, have a good rest. I'm going to look for him."
"Got it!"
The two nodded.
After leaving the ward, Tan Xiu spread his spiritual sense around. Immediately after, he saw Yuan Chuling in a doctor's office. He was holding a nurse's hand and reading her palm.
"This fella …"
Tan Xiu shook his head. After rushing to the ward, he directly pushed the door open and strode inside.
"Ah …"
The nurse, whose hand was being held by Yuan Chuling, was startled by Tan Xiu. She screamed in fright and suddenly retracted her hand as though she got an electric shock.
An angry look appeared on Yuan Chuling's face as he turned to look at the door. When he saw Tan Xiu, he immediately looked angry and called out, "Eldest Bro Tang, why did you come here? Also, didn't you come at the wrong time? "
"Hey, Fatty Yuan, don't mess with that nurse," said Tan Xiu with a smile. Let's go! The earlier you get better, the earlier you can leave the hospital. "
Yuan Chuling rolled his eyes. He then turned to the delicate and pretty nurse, who was obviously a bit flustered, and said, "Let's end our talk here today, Beautiful Sis. Palm reading can indeed see everyone's life. I'll show it to you some other day. "
After saying that!
He controlled the wheelchair with both hands and moved toward the door.
Tan Xiu could only force a wry smile inwardly. He found that as he grew older, every boy was like a pervert, with their minds full of women and women.
He quickly walked a few steps forward.
He reached out to push Yuan Chuling's wheelchair and said, "You can't stay still even though you're controlling the wheelchair with one hand."
Yuan Chuling chuckled and said, "We're boys in puberty. Puberty is equivalent to puberty. Don't tell me you …"
"Tan Xiu?"
A voice interrupted Yuan Chuling's words from the door of the ward next to them.
Tan Xiu turned his head. When he saw the other party, a surprised look immediately appeared on his face as he said, "Jia Ruidao? How come it's you? "
Jia Ruidao strode out of the door as he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Tan Xiu, I didn't expect it to be you. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me just now!"
Tan Xiu said with a smile, "My friend is a bit injured, so I came to see him."
Jia Ruidao glanced at Yuan Chuling as he nodded and said, "Tan Xiu, it's been a few months since we last met in Jingmen Island, hasn't it? I really didn't expect that we would meet in Shanghai. "
Tan Xiu said with a smile, "I'm studying at the University of Shanghai. Can you? What are you doing in Shanghai? "
Jia Ruidao said with a smile, "I've been doing some business recently and am preparing to move my company to Shanghai. Since I'm not feeling well, I came here to have a check-up. "
"What business?" Tan Xiu asked.
"I've retired from the gambling industry, and I don't have other things to do, so I opened a video game mall. That's right, I also have a big shop in the commercial street near your University. I've been preparing to renovate it recently. "
"That's right!" Tan Xiu said with a smile.
Jia Ruidao said, "Tan Xiu, since I can meet you in Shanghai, it means that our fate is not shallow. Do you have time tonight? I'll treat you to dinner. "
Tan Xiu said with a smile, "I have an appointment with someone tonight. Let's do it another day!"
Jia Ruidao said with a smile, "Alright, I'll be staying in Shanghai for the next few months. Let's contact each other by phone later if we have time. "
Tan Xiu nodded with a smile as he pushed Yuan Chuling toward the ward.
"Who's that, Eldest Brother?"
Yuan Chuling curiously asked.
"A friend," Tan Xiu said.
Yuan Chuling said, "Boss, I just heard him say that he's quitting the gambling industry. What's going on? Is he a professional gambler? "
"You guessed it right. He's indeed a professional gambler, and his level is very high." Tan Xiu said with a smile. "However, gambling is not a legitimate profession. I once helped him with a small favor, and he also suffered some losses in that incident, so he retired from the gambling industry."
Yuan Chuling raised his thumbs up and praised, "Eldest Brother, I found that you're really amazing. You just casually met someone, and they all accepted your help. I saw that Jia Ruidao seems to respect you very much. "
"Don't praise me, I'll get complacent." Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing.
