Chapter 443: Chapter 443: This guy is too arrogant, right?_1

It was already midday, and the guests had gradually gathered around the tables.

Due to the large number of guests, even though the Liu family’s mansion was significant, it could not accommodate everybody, hence the seating was divided into two sections.

Upon first glance, there may not seem to be anything wrong, but a second more careful look would reveal the social hierarchy - the further inside you were seated, the higher the status.

The representatives of the Five Great Families were seated at the same table as the protagonist, Liu Changfeng, followed by the secondary families of Yanjing.

Zhang Xian was very obedient, seated at the very edge of the seating arrangement. In his view, the outside was more comfortable, although he was uninvited, freeloading off the banquet.

Mo Shaoyun, Xiao Nan, and Nangong Wu were also seated at the tables on the outskirts, together with Zhang Xian.

Although technically, Mo Shaoyun and Nangong Wu, given their statuses in Yanjing, could be seated inside. But, if Zhang Xian was sitting outside, how could these two be seated inside?

Li Peichi sat next to Zhang Xian, with her head lowered, looking very uncomfortable.

Like Zhang Xian, she too was at the banquet as a freeloader. However, in contrast, she did not have the same thick skin as Zhang Xian to be completely at ease.

"Damn..."

A young man suddenly yanked a middle-aged man to his feet, angrily saying, "I called dibs on this seat, who said you could sit here?"

"What do you mean, ’you called dibs’?"

The middle-aged man turned his head and retorted, "Plus, I am sitting here, what are you going to do about it? If you f*cking yank me again, be careful I might slap you all the way to outer space."

"You think you’re so tough, does your mother know about this?"

The young man retorted angrily, "I’m standing right here now, go ahead and hit me!"

"You think I’m stupid, to start a fight with you here?"

The middle-aged man smirked, "But don’t be in such a hurry, let me finish my meal first then we can go outside and talk, I promise not to beat you to death."

"You..."

Seeing that the middle-aged man was adamant about not getting up, and given his size, the young man turned his attention to Zhang Xian.

Although all who came here were wealthy, there were many followers. This guy in front of him was most likely a follower or possibly a bodyguard.

Such an existence was too much for him, who was as physically weak as a chicken, to provoke.

"Why are you looking at me?"

Zhang Xian pointed to a table in front and said, "Didn’t you see? There’s an empty table over there. This one’s already filled up, why must you insist on squeezing in here?"

The young man replied smugly, "Because I want to sit here."

"Alright then! I’m a reasonable person. Since you want to sit here, I’ll give up my seat for you, it’s just a chair after all."

Zhang Xian laughed, "Let’s go. This spot seems too popular. It’s probably inappropriate for us to sit here, it’s better to choose those that are less sought after."

The four ladies, Mo Shaoyun, Nangong Wu, Li Peichi, and Xiao Nan, all stood up.

Seeing Zhang Xian agreeing to relinquish his seat, the young man grinned smugly. Right when he was about to head over, he saw the four beauties all stand up, nearly causing him to choke on his own spit.

His unreasonable demand to sit here was all because he saw these four beauties, right? If the beauties were gone, why would he still sit here?

His lips twitched unnaturally several times, then he abruptly turned around, heading towards Zhang Xian’s table.

Several other young men did the same.

Sharing a table with beauties, eating, chatting, they might even hook up with one. They wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity, would they?

"Didn’t you want to sit over there?"

Zhang Xian noticed the young man approaching again, and coldly smiled, "What are you doing here now?"

The young man smirked, "I suddenly wanted to sit here, are you going to stop me?"

"Why don’t you give it a try?"

Zhang Xian retorted, "That guy earlier didn’t dare to hit you here. But I’m not the same. If you dare to sit here, I’ll slap you."

The others stopped in their tracks upon hearing this.

They knew that the four beauties were here with Zhang Xian, which had made them envious for a while. After all, the ladies by Zhang Xian’s side were all top-notch.

But what puzzled them was how a young man who could have four beauties by his side could be sitting outside. It didn’t make sense!

If you told them Zhang Xian had no connections, they wouldn’t believe it. After all, having four top-quality beauties by his side, they wouldn’t believe he was a nobody.

Seeing Zhang Xian’s arrogance, the young man got scared.

They were at the Liu family’s home, the largest family in Yanjing. This guy dared to show off here, could he have a powerful background?

Or was he just bluffing, and was actually a nobody?

However, he was more inclined to believe the former. Granted, he couldn’t recognize most of the people, but he did recognize Mo Shaoyun, known as the number one beau of Yanjing.

If he could be seated next to Mo Shaoyun, looking so intimate, could his identity be straightforward?

"Damn it..."

All of a sudden, the young man muttered under his breath.

Earlier, he had not anticipated that Zhang Xian would be so audacious, and had people eating out of his hands.

Since the matter had developed this way, there was no turning back, if he turned tail now, wouldn’t his face be thrown all the way to outer space?

"Get lost."

Zhang Xian saw the young man standing still, his face suddenly turned cold and he shouted, "This goes for everyone here too. If anyone dares to mess around, I’m not afraid to smack them in the mouth."

"I’ll stay here, see if you dare to touch me."

The young man finally decided, walked straight to the seat and sat down. He valued his dignity over everything else.

In his opinion, even if this guy in front of him was brash, would he dare to cause trouble at the Liu family’s place? He’s from out of town and only sporadically active in Yanjing, with none of the Mo family’s influence.

Upon seeing the young man sitting down, others started to laugh mockingly.

This guy was bold enough to provoke Zhang Xian. If Zhang does something, they’ll step back, but if he doesn’t, they won’t be polite anymore.

"Smack..."

Without hesitating, Zhang Xian slapped the young man across the face. "Since you’re so cheap, and you’re unwilling to get slapped, if I don’t do it soon, I would be doing you an injustice."

"You..."

The young man was furious, raising his fist to smash Zhang Xian’s face, "You dared to hit me?"

"Smack..."

Another slap was dealt by Zhang Xian.

As the young man’s punch was about to land on Zhang Xian, he couldn’t help but sneer.

Given that this guy had already started, no matter how big a mess he would make, the Liu family will have to pursue him for responsibility.

However, as soon as the smile spread across his face, he felt a sharp pain in his face, and then his vision blurred, and he found himself flying several meters away, landing on the ground.

What just happened? How was he sent flying?

"This guy’s the bomb."

Several young men, who were eyeing the beauties, were stunned, their eyes wide open.

Not to mention that they didn’t see clearly how this guy had acted just now, but the sight of him slapping someone and sending them flying seven or eight meters was shocking enough.

"Er..."

The other guests were quite frightened by the sight of someone stirring up trouble at the Liu family’s banquet.

Does this guy have a death wish or what? Doesn’t he know this is the turf of Yanjing’s number one family, the Liu family? Does he dare to be so provocative here?

"Damn..." Before younger could rise, he just stared in shock at the bloody teeth on the ground.

That slap just now really hurt! His entire face felt numb, and he could taste several of his teeth falling out. That damned bastard, he was really serious about it!

"What happened?"

A few middle-aged men in suits came over from the side, asking with cold faces.

"You... You’ve come at the right time."

Seeing the security staff of the Liu family coming, the young man quickly got up and said, "Did you see that? That guy hit me, just because I took a seat. He even dared to hit me."

"Are you the one who started the fight?" One man in a suit turned his head to look at Zhang Xian.

With a slight smile, Zhang Xian replied, "That’s right, some people just can’t help being taught a lesson, and I had no choice but to slap him."

"Do you know where this is? Do you have the guts to act such a big shot?"

The man in the suit responded coldly, "And, today is our patriarch’s birthday. You’re staining it with violence. Are you trying to mess things up?"

"That’s not what I meant."

Zhang Xian replied calmly, with a chuckle, "I said earlier, some people need to be taught a lesson, I had to do something. Are you suggesting that I should refrain from disciplining such a person because of the venue? Although your point might make some sense, I have to say, this isn’t a place that would make me back down. If anyone dares to act cheeky, I’ll give him a smack."

The man in the suit snorted, saying, "Hmph, that’s quite a mouth you have there. Are you trying to disrespect the Liu family?"

"I don’t recall saying that."

Zhang Xian chuckled, "But if that’s what you want to believe, I won’t argue."

"What a response."

The man in the suit said sarcastically, "Today is our patriarch’s birthday, I don’t want to resort to violence. Are you leaving on your own, or do you need me to show you the door?"

"I’m staying right here, just try it."

Zhang Xian replied, "Of course, I’m not refusing to leave, but your attitude annoys me. I was just disciplining a jackass, and you decided to act all high and mighty? I’m usually a low-key guy, not interested in attracting controversy. But that doesn’t mean I’m never unruly. I wouldn’t suggest causing a scene here if I were you."

The surrounding crowd was taken aback by his words. Does this guy have a death wish? Or is he just crazy? Daring to pick a fight with the Liu family inside the Liu’s mansion?

And today was supposed to be Liu Changfeng’s birthday. Provoking the Liu family on such a special occasion is like asking for death!

"It seems like you want me to take action!"

The man in the suit smirked, lunging toward Zhang Xian with his hand outstretched like a striking snake.

"That’s all the strength you’ve got?"

Zhang Xian abruptly stood up, lifting his hand to slap the man in the suit, sending him flying.

In most people’s eyes, this guy might seem a bit tough. However, in his eyes, he’s just another insect. A wannabe who hasn’t even reached the ’Post Acquired Peak’, daring to act tough in front of him?
