Chapter 353: Chapter 353: Xie Wuming Comes to Break It Up? _1

Dong Tianchen and Shen Jialin emerged from their car, ignoring the surprised stares around them, heading straight for Zhang Xian.

Not to mention the connection their daughter has with Zhang Xian, the Dong family had to show respect for Zhang Xian purely based on his awe-inspiring capabilities. The current Zhang Xian was a prominent figure in Tiandu City.

"Uncle Dong, Aunt Shen, sorry to have made you take time out of your busy schedules to be here," Zhang Xian walked up to them, smiling.

Shen Jialin rolled her eyes at Zhang Xian, grumbling, "Why are you being so formal? We’re family. Could we not attend your resort’s opening?"

"Exactly..." Dong Tianchen gave Zhang Xian a friendly pat on the shoulder, grinning, "You’ve done well, kid. The style of this resort is just right. I predict this will be a gold mine in the future."

Zhang Xian laughed, saying, "I’m just mucking about."

Shen Jialin gave Zhang Xian another eye roll, saying, "Still trying to play it cool in front of us? We’re not ignorant of your capabilities."

Zhang Xian felt a little embarrassed. This was Dong Qian’s mother standing in front of him.

Literally speaking, Shen Jialin was his mother-in-law.

"Dad, Mom, you’re here!" Dong Qian ran out from the inside, beaming.

Shen Jialin looked at Dong Qian and laughed, "You naughty girl, you haven’t been home for a while. You stick to Zhang Xian all the time. Haven’t you been bothering Brother Zhang too much?"

Dong Qian pouted, "When have I ever bothered Brother Zhang? Ask him if you don’t believe me. I’m not a kid."

"Qianqian is the best, how could she bother me?" Zhang Xian laughed and said to Dong Qian, "You go ahead and show your parents around, they haven’t been to our Lingxiao Manor yet."

Dong Qian nodded and led Dong Tianchen and Shen Jialin into the manor.

"Damn, who knows that kid?" someone asked, "Since when has that old fox Dong Tianchen been so courteous to people?"

Everyone around shook their heads, indicating that they didn’t recognize Zhang Xian.

At the same time, they all shared the same confusion. Dong Tianchen seemed a bit too enthusiastic about that kid; there are very few who could get such treatment from Dong Tianchen. It’s not normal.

"Hey, isn’t that...?" Someone pointed at a figure heading towards the Lingxiao Manor.

There, a young man in a grey suit stepped out of a Lamborghini supercar, walking towards Lingxiao Manor with a smile.

"It’s Dan Wei of the Dan Family."

"Eh, the Lingxiao Manor has a connection with the Dan Family too?"

People were once again surprised when they saw Dan Wei. Does this Lingxiao Manor not only have a relationship with the Dong family, but also with the ever-low-key Dan Family?

Of the three giants of Tiandu City, the Lingxiao Manor was connected to two. How impressive was this?

"My god, look! There’s the Communist party secretary Qian Bo, city police chief Zheng Youhua, and a bunch of department heads. Pretty impressive."

Suddenly, a middle-aged man widened his eyes and pointed at several people not far away, "This Lingxiao Manor is more powerful than we imagined! They’ve got connections in gang and politics."

Others too noticed party Secretary Qian Bo, each with varying levels of shock.

Zheng Youhua was okay, but both Qian Bo and Shen Jialin were not prone to attending business events. Today, two major figures who normally avoid business activities showed up. What did that say? They’d never attend the business events launched by others, but they both turned up at the Lingxiao Manor. How powerful was the manor?

One should know that Qian Bo was the big cheese in the officialdom of Tiandu City.

There was political turbulence in Tiandu City not long ago, and now Qian Bo was the only voice in the city’s officialdom.

"Haha, Secretary Qian, Director Zheng, long time no see," Zhang Xian approached with a grin.

Both Qian Bo and Zheng Youhua set aside their pretensions, warmly shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries with Zhang Xian before proceeding into the Lingxiao Manor.

"Haha..."

Suddenly, a loud burst of laughter echoed through the air as Xie Wuming strolled over with Black Dragon and others, extremely cocky and arrogant.

Their voices reverberated across the plaza even before they reached the stairs.

Zhang Xian was surprised to see Xie Wuming, but he didn’t consider it a big problem. What concerned him was Jiao Long, whom he found somewhat daunting. This old man was still here.

However, there was an expert of the Innate Realm presiding over the Lingxiao Manor, and Qiu Yun hadn’t left either.

With a faint smile, he laughed, "Yo, what’s the occasion that’s brought you, the crime lord, over here?"

"Haha, look at you, Brother Zhang," Xie Wuming guffawed, "Couldn’t I, as your ’big brother’, come and show support at the opening of your manor? To tell you the truth, I am really amazed. This manor you’ve set up is very stylish, very imposing. It’s surely set to make piles of money every day in the future. I’m so envious!"

Zhang Xian chuckled, "Brother Xie, you’re too kind. My small operation can’t possibly compare with your empire!"

"Kid, we meet again."

Jiao Long stepped on the stairs, looking at Zhang Xian with undisguised murderous intent in his eyes.

Had it not been for that doggone Zhang Xian snagging his Spirit Fruit, his strength would be on a different level by now, and he definitely wouldn’t still be trudging around in circles at the same stage.

This guy really needs to die!

"Indeed, we haven’t met in a while."

Zhang Xian smiled and said, "However, you old fellow are so unkind. Every time I want to talk to you about life goals, you run faster than a rabbit. It’s as if you wish you had a couple more legs. I’m really baffled. I won’t kill you, so why do you run so fast? Considering our relationship, the most I would do is slap you a few times or kick you. You don’t have to run away."

"You..." Jiao Long was almost choked with anger.

He had indeed fought with Zhang Xian twice and ran away both times. However, this guy took advantage of his superior numbers—it wasn’t fair.

"How did I...?"

Zhang Xian grinned, "Ni Qiu, taking advantage of the opening of my mansion, I once again want to talk to you about life goals. You won’t run away this time, will you?"

Jiaolong’s face was dark, and he did not respond.

That old man Qiu Yun was also in Lingxiao Mansion. If he didn’t run, wouldn’t he be an idiot?

But he wasn’t worried. Xie Wuming could also bring an innate expert over, just that he hadn’t come over temporarily. At that time, he insisted on giving this little bastard a lesson.

"What’s up? It’s not time for the ribbon cutting yet, aren’t you inviting us in to sit?" Xie Wuming came up to Zhang Xian and asked with a smile.

Zhang Xian smirked, "The visitor is a guest, how can I shut you out? I don’t want to bear the name of an inhospitable host. Please go in!"

Xie WuName chuckled and led the people into the Lingxiao Mansion.

When Jiao Long walked past Zhang Xian, he coldly said, "Young man, your end is near. You wait."

"Fine! I’ll wait."

Zhang Xian winked at Jiao Long, "Just wondering if you old bones can survive this. Don’t lose ground later. It would be a shame if I expelled you, right?"

"You..."

Jiaolong was so angry that his beard was arching, and he quickly walked inside. Talking to this guy could really piss a person off to death.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."

Zhang Xian, seeing that there was no one coming, stood on the stairs and laughed, "Today is the opening day of our Lingxiao Mansion. Thank you all for your support. To express our gratitude to everyone from Lingxiao Mansion, we have many offers today. You all can come in and try. If you find it good and are satisfied with our service in Lingxiao Mansion, please promote us."

"Haha, okay, congratulating, brother, for a successful opening."

"Prosperous business and wide sources of wealth."

"Brother, your mansion is really good, it’s different from others."

The crowd on the big stage heard this and saluted Zhang Xian, walking into Lingxiao Mansion one after another. They came here today to see what this newly opened mansion was like.

Although Lingxiao Mansion had never advertised, when it started construction, the news had already spread, and many people already knew about it.

"Quite a lot of people."

Zhang Xian saw that there were quite a few people coming and he smiled, ready to go in.

Before the opening of the Lingxiao Mansion, he hadn’t advertised, nor planning to. He was busy concocting medicine.

He figured his mansion didn’t need to make a fuss about publicity. There’s simply no way around it. At present, they’re the only ones, without any branch stores, and no business competition.

"Who was that guy just now?"

Mo Shaoyun suddenly walked over and asked, "That guy seems to be hostile to you. It’s just the opening day today. He won’t cause a scene, will he?"

"Probably not!" As Zhang Xian glanced at Mo Shaoyun, he said, "I can handle it."

Mo Shaoyun said, "You wouldn’t be causing so much trouble if you didn’t stir up all these things. Ever since you came down from the mountain, you’ve never been idle, either fighting this one or that one."

"Eh, can you blame me? They’re the ones coming after me, aren’t they? I’ve always been passive, never taking the initiative." Zhang Xian said, feeling wronged.

"I can’t be bothered to talk to you."

Mo Shaoyun gave Zhang Xian a white look and turned around to go inside.

"Hey, don’t be like that! We are engaged, aren’t we? Why do you tend to ignore your future husband?" Zhang Xian immediately stepped forward and caught Mo Shaoyun’s little hand.

He had been trying to explain to Mo Shaoyun these days, but all in vain, achieving very little effect.

He had been busy configuring medicinal herbs all the time and didn’t have much time. As a result, there had been no progress in his relationship with Mo Shaoyun and Zhu Qing. Today, if Zhu Qing hadn’t come at all, and if Mo Shaoyun and Xiao Nan hadn’t invested in Lingxiao Mansion and needed to manage things here, they definitely wouldn’t have come. He found this very frustrating.

"Let go." Mo Shaoyun said coldly.

This shameless fellow actually dared to bring up their relationship when he needed her and ignored her when he didn’t; did he think of himself as a treat?

"Um..."

Zhang Xian didn’t let go. "Dear wife, I really didn’t mean that. We’ve known each other for more than a day or two. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? Do you think I am so heartless?"

"What kind of person you are and what does that have to do with me? Is it important?"

Mo Shaoyun looked at Zhang Xian and said coldly, "Let go of me, now, immediately, right away."
