"Dad, you … come in. Long Qian, hurry up and greet him. This is your grandpa."
Zhao Yajie sensed that the atmosphere was not right. She immediately reacted and greeted him warmly, doing her duty as a daughter-in-law.
The Dragon King had been ready to strike, but when he heard this, he quietly retracted his attack. He looked at Long Qian, who was looking at him curiously, and a trace of kindness flashed in his eyes.
Since this was the first time he saw his daughter-in-law and grandson, he would leave Long Hao some dignity for the time being. When Dragon Teeth returned, he would settle the score with him.
"Grandpa."
Long Qian greeted him obediently, with a shy look on his face.
"Ah!"
Dragon King trembled all over, and his stiff face suddenly burst into a smile. Like melting ice and snow, the oppressive atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.
Long Hao's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief and glanced gratefully at his wife. Although he used to be a wastrel and did not put much effort into his cultivation, he was still a martial artist. He could clearly feel the killing intent that his father emitted in that instant.
"Get up. I'll settle the score with you later."
Dragon King snorted and stepped into the room. When he turned to look at Zhao Yajie, he already had a smile on his face. "You are my daughter-in-law, Yajie. You are very good."
"Dad, you flatter me."
Zhao Yajie was a little embarrassed and modest.
"Dad, please sit down."
Long Hao scrambled to his feet, his face full of flattery, which made Long Qian dumbfounded. Was this still the adoptive father he knew?
"Yes, dad, please sit down. I'm going to cook now. Let's have a good family reunion tonight."
Zhao Yajie said casually.
"Well, okay!"
Dragon King was not very kind to Long Hao, but he was very kind to Zhao Yajie and Long Qian.
Long Qian was also a clever boy. He could tell that his grandpa seemed to have a grudge against his father, so he called his classmate and told him about it. Then he stopped playing football and chatted with the Dragon King. His grandpa was so sweet that the Dragon King beamed with joy.
…
The lanterns were lit.
In Shu Du City, the open-air parking lot in front of the Golden Horse Hotel was filled with luxury cars. It was like a world famous car exhibition, which made the passers-by secretly speechless.
If it weren't for the burly hotel security guards who kept a vigilant eye on the surroundings and forbade unrelated people from approaching, some people might have been tempted to take a selfie in front of the car and post it on their WeChat Moments to show off.
One by one, the upper-class people of Shu Du city came out of their luxury cars and greeted their friends and acquaintances with gentlemanly smiles on their faces.
One couldn't blame them for being complacent. After all, being invited to a cocktail party wasn't just a symbol of wealth, it was also a symbol of status.
An Audi A8 slowly drove into the parking lot, causing the hotel security in charge of parking to secretly curl his lips, a look of disdain flashing in his eyes.
If it was in the past, an Audi A8 that was worth millions of yuan would definitely be regarded as a luxury car, but on today's occasion, it was not enough. A luxury car that was worth millions of yuan was like a beggar suddenly mixed in with the upper-class luxury cars, it was extremely eye-catching.
Fortunately, although the security guards of the Golden Horse Hotel were disdainful, they knew that those who were qualified to attend the cocktail party were not people they could afford to offend. Although they despised them in their heart, they still put on a professional smile on their faces and quickly stepped forward to open the door to provide parking service.
Pan Weiguo and his wife walked out of the car nervously. They still hadn't figured out why the Shengtang Pharmaceutical Company would send an invitation to the Pan's Group.
Because they knew very well that although the Pan's Group was also a little famous in Shu Du city, it was only a small company with tens of millions of yuan in assets.
It was just a second-rate company, and there was still a huge gap between it and the real top rich and powerful families.
Those top rich and powerful families had racked their brains to get an invitation letter, but they still couldn't get it. How could the Pan's Group make the Shengtang Pharmaceutical Company take the initiative to send an invitation letter?
"I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Mr. Pan. What's wrong? Did you also get an invitation? "
A strange voice suddenly came, which made Pan Weiguo, who was already nervous, stiffen. He turned his head and looked at a fat man who was more than two hundred pounds who came out of a Bugatti Veyron that was worth more than ten million yuan.
"Mr. Huang, you also got an invitation?"
Pan Weiguo squeezed out a stiff smile on his face and greeted politely. But in his heart, he felt disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.
This fat man was called Huang Zhiwei. He was a member of the Huang family, a local rich and powerful family in Shu Du city. He ran the Huang's Pharmaceutical Company. Whether it was connections or resources, it was far from what an outsider like him could compare with. The Huang family was a well-known pharmaceutical family, and their main business was pharmaceutical trading.
As the saying goes, people of the same trade are enemies. Because Pan Weiguo paid attention to integrity when doing business, and he always took the cheap route, he had gradually begun to compete with the Huang family for market share, which made Huang Zhiwei extremely dissatisfied, and he constantly suppressed the Pan's Group.
Pan Weiguo always had the attitude of making money, so he always tolerated him. In order to make peace, he even took the initiative to give up lucrative orders many times, just because he didn't want to provoke the Huang family.
But this Huang Zhiwei didn't let it go. As long as they met, no matter what the occasion was, he would ridicule and ridicule him, which made Pan Weiguo very annoyed.
"Hehe, even Mr. Pan can get an invitation, how could I, Huang Zhiwei, not get an invitation?"
Huang Zhiwei sneered arrogantly with his nose in the sky.
In fact, the Huang family really didn't get an invitation. It was he who went to Yang Xiaodong and begged for a long time to get an invitation letter. But in front of Pan Weiguo, he naturally wouldn't tell the truth.
"That's right, that's right. The Huang's Pharmaceutical Company is one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in Shu Du city. It's inevitable to get an invitation."
Although Pan Weiguo was annoyed, he still smiled and complimented.
"Darling, who is this?"
At this time, a coquettish woman wrapped in a mink coat, wearing only a pair of stockings on her legs, red high heels, and heavy makeup came out of the Bugatti Veyron. She hugged Huang Zhiwei's arm with both hands and rubbed against him, asking in a sweet voice.
"Oh, the boss of a small pharmaceutical company. I don't know where he got an invitation letter from, but he wants to sneak into the banquet in an attempt to establish a relationship with Shengtang Pharmaceutical Company."
Huang Zhiwei lecherously pinched the woman's buttocks and taunted Pan Weiguo without giving him any face.
"No wonder he drives such a low-class car. He's just the boss of a small pharmaceutical company. What's the point of talking to him?"
The woman with heavy makeup glanced at Pan Weiguo with contempt and said arrogantly.
Pan Weiguo's face changed. He quietly clenched his fists, but in the end, he sighed secretly and calmed down.
Although he could bear it, Song Shue couldn't bear it anymore. She said with a cold face, "Although we are a small pharmaceutical company, we also rely on our own labor to make a living. It's better than some gold diggers who sell their bodies."
"Who the f * ck are you talking about? Old bitch, say it again if you have the guts. "
The woman's sensitive point was poked, and her face suddenly became extremely ugly. She pointed at Song Shue and screamed hoarsely and angrily.
"You have no upbringing and no cultivation. Don't call thief to catch thief. Everyone knows who is the bitch."
Song Shue was not afraid at all and sneered contemptuously. Although she was usually gentle and virtuous, she was an extremely unyielding and shrewd woman in her bones. Otherwise, she would not have run away with Pan Weiguo resolutely despite the opposition of her family.
"Old bitch, how dare you scold me? I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you."
The woman with heavy makeup was so angry that her face was distorted, and the powder on her face fell down. She rushed to Song Shue with her teeth and claws, trying to scratch her face.
"Get lost. I don't hit women, but if you dare to touch my wife, I promise I won't let you go."
Although Pan Weiguo didn't want to make a big deal out of this, as a hot-blooded man, he wouldn't watch his wife being bullied and do nothing. He stepped forward to protect Song Shue behind him and shouted at the woman sternly.
Although Pan Weiguo's business was not big, he was a boss who started from scratch after all. He imperceptibly exuded the momentum of a person who had been in a superior position for a long time, which made the woman's arrogance suddenly stagnate, and her eyes became erratic.
After all, she was just a mistress of Huang Zhiwei. Although she looked down on Pan Weiguo before, once Huang Zhiwei was tired of playing with her and got rid of her, it was very easy for the boss of a small pharmaceutical company like Pan Weiguo to play with her to death without a backer.
At this moment, their movement had alarmed many people. Everyone curiously gathered around to watch the fun.
Seeing that the conflict was between Huang Zhiwei and Pan Weiguo, a smile appeared on their faces.
Inwardly, he thought, 'Go ahead and make a scene. The bigger the better. It's best if we can alarm the Magnificent Tang Corporation and have them cancel their qualification to participate in the banquet. This way, we can have two less competitors.'
"Are you threatening my woman?"
Huang Zhiwei crossed his arms and waited to watch the good show. He didn't expect that his woman would be so cowardly and be subdued by Pan Weiguo's words. This made him feel very uncomfortable, especially when there were so many famous people watching from the side. If he didn't stand up, where would he put his face? Where would the Huang Family's face go?
Pan Weiguo looked at him coldly and lightly said, "I'm just stating a fact. If you think that I'm threatening you, you can do whatever you want. I, Pan Weiguo, will take it."
Huang Zhiwei's expression stagnated. A touch of disbelief flashed in his eyes. According to Pan Weiguo's attitude, he thought that once he opened his mouth, Pan Weiguo would definitely admit defeat. Not only would he lose his face in public, it would also make him feel proud.
But he didn't expect that Pan Weiguo would unexpectedly not play his cards according to common sense. His performance was extremely tough, which was completely different from his usual style.
There must be a reason for this abnormality. This made him feel bewildered. What kind of confidence did Pan Weiguo have that he dared to not give him face?
Could it be … that the rumor was true?
He suddenly remembered the news that spread today. It was said that the Pan Family's boy suddenly became a martial arts master. Not only did he beat Wu Ling, but he also crippled Wu Song. Not only did he come out unscathed, but even the Martial Gate was sealed by the government because of this.
When he got the news, he didn't believe it and thought that it was just a rumor.
What kind of existence was the Wu Family?
It could be said that in Shu City, they were no different from a local tyrant. Crushing the Huang Family was no different from crushing an ant. How could a mere Pan Family compete with the Wu Family?
But now, looking at Pan Weiguo's fearless look, he suddenly felt that the rumor might be true. This made him instantly break out in a cold sweat. His face changed between green and red. It was extremely interesting.
If the Pan Family really had such great power, he had always ridiculed and ridiculed Pan Weiguo and even suppressed him. Wasn't this courting death?
People said that a big heart and fat body, but Huang Zhiwei was different. He was naturally suspicious and cautious. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the person in charge of the Huang's Pharmaceutical Company. Even if the news was not confirmed, he immediately made a decision.
It was not too late to make a decision after finding out whether the rumor was true or not. If the Pan Family was really pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, then the Huang Family would run into an iron plate. If the Pan Family was bluffing, then it would not be too late to take revenge.
