Chapter 6: Trouble at the Bar
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Jingshen was the eldest grandson of the Huo family. Although they were cousins, Xing Yuyun rarely contacted him.
He only knew that Huo Jingshen had migrated to Y Country with his second uncle and aunt long ago. After that, his parents passed away, one after the other. Three months ago, when the old master of the Huo family was suddenly diagnosed with advanced intestinal cancer, Huo Jingshen decided to return to China.
The Huo family topped the ‘four great families’ in Nanchang. The ancestors of the Huo family had been talented and capable people who had pioneered the development of the country. The heritage and history that they had left behind could not be shaken by anyone.
Old Master Huo took many risks in his early years, initially engaging in only real estate businesses. With their rapid business development, the Huo Yuan Group had already become the leader of the Nanchang Commercial Circle. Now, the subsidiaries of the Huo Yuan Group were involved not only in real estate and construction, but also in technology, finance, investment, and others.
It could be said that as long as it was a profitable industry, the Huo family was probably involved. Old Master Huo had also been listed on the Forbes list of richest men recently.
The Huo family had three grandsons at the time, but Old Master Huo had been having total control of the Huo Yuan Group for decades. Hence, everyone knew Huo Jingshen’s reason for returning to China so suddenly.
Xing Yuyun was naturally fearful of his cousin brother. He frowned as he asked, “Brother, why is Wanwan’s cell phone with you?”
“Wanwan?” The man’s voice was deep, but he felt oddly affectionate uttering those two words.
Xing Yuyun felt very uncomfortable when he heard it. “Yes, Wanwan… She…”
Xing Yuyun was at a loss for words.
He did not know how to explain the complicated relationship he had with Su Wanwan to this cousin brother of his whom he was not that close to.
“I’m going to hang up if there is nothing else. I am busy.”
Xing Yuyun was still in shock when Huo Jingshen ended the call.
***
At a bar, around ten o’ clock at night.
Deafening music was playing as young men and women danced wildly on the dance floor in a drunken stupor.
Su Wanwan was seated at a table in the corner as she picked up a bottle of beer and downed it in one gulp. Very soon, the table was filled with empty beer bottles. She was about to pick up another bottle of beer when-
“Su Wanwan!”
Su Wanwan looked up, squinting her beautiful almond-shaped eyes at the person in front of her.
“Su Wanwan, you don’t remember me anymore?” Huo Zexi smiled as he sat down opposite her. “I’m Huo Zexi. We met two years ago when Yuyun and I went to visit Grandpa Su during the New Year. Have you forgotten about it already?”
Although he was being very warm and cordial, Su Wanwan was indifferent towards him. She did not even respond to him, and instead just picked up another bottle of beer and continued drinking.
Huo Zexi also picked up a bottle of beer, thinking of clinking their bottles. “I heard that you went to Los Angeles to further your studies after that. We haven’t seen each other in two years now. Why didn’t you say anything about coming back?”
“Get lost!”
Huo Zexi’s smile disappeared as soon as he heard those words.
What did she just say?
Did she know just how many women in Nanchang were trying all sorts of things to get to know him? He was the one taking the initiative to talk to her, but she actually dared ask him to get lost?
He was the youngest grandson of Huo Yuanshan, the richest man in Nanchang, as well as the third young master of the Huo family!
He also had two of his friends with him today and they were also rich young masters in Nanchang. How could he possibly continue mingling in this circle if news about what happened here today got out?
Huo Zexi slammed the beer bottle down angrily and snarled, “Say that to me again if you have the guts!”
“Get lost!”
Huo Zexi was speechless.
She actually dared to repeat herself?!
“Did I hear wrongly? Zexi, she actually asked you to get lost! Hahaha!”
“Zexi, losing your influence already?”
“There’s actually a woman that Young Master Huo can’t handle?”
“This is really an eye-opener. Hahaha!”
Huo Zexi’s friends didn’t give Huo Zexi any chance to defend himself.
He grabbed Su Wanwan’s wrist and growled, “You’d better apologize to me!”
Su Wanwan put down her beer bottle and glanced at him from the corner of her eye.
She was naturally a very beautiful girl and under the dim lighting in the bar, her face looked even more exquisite. Her eyes were gleaming and the peach blossom mole at the corner of her eye made her look even more seductive and charming.
Her hand felt delicate in his, and this made Huo Zexi’s heart sway. His tone softened immediately as he said, “Su Wanwan, I know the reason you’re drinking here alone. It’s because you were dumped by Xing Yuyun, right? Why don’t you become my woman then? I promise that the Su family will not try anything against you in the future anymore. That includes Su Yanyan-”
It would have been fine if he had stopped earlier, but the words ‘Su Yanyan’ seemed to trigger Su Wanwan. She immediately picked up her beer bottle and swung it at his forehead.
There was a loud crashing sound, and the bar dissolved into chaos.
***
The loud sound of the telephone ringing echoed throughout the Huo family villa in the middle of the night.
Not long after that, the doorbell rang and there were loud sounds coming from outside.
Huo Jingshen came down from the second floor, hearing an energetic roar along the way.
To be honest, Old Master Huo did not sound like an old man who was suffering from cancer at all.
“That’s enough, Yuanshan. Look, you woke Jingshen up too!” When Old Mistress Huo saw Huo Jingshen walking downstairs, she hurriedly grabbed hold of the old man.
Bang!
Old Master Huo slammed the white jade teapot back on the table heavily as he took a deep breath.
The servants and drivers were all standing off to the side of the living room, looking distressed. A broken teacup lay on the floor, amidst tea leaves and water.
