C148 Could It be That You're Looking down on Me



C148 Could It be That You're Looking down on Me

The smell of wind and rain slowly settled over the banquet hall.    

    

For a moment, the surroundings were extremely quiet. It was terrifyingly quiet. Everyone was looking at Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu, quietly waiting for the next development.    

    

Since Lui Hongjiu was the big boss of Fengxiang City, he was destined to not be a simple and merciful person.    

    

Today was his sixty-sixth birthday banquet. He was giving a speech on stage, but was suddenly interrupted by Xue Chen, not to mention Lui Hongjiu. Even if it had been anyone else, there would have been a trace of anger in their hearts.    

    

This was an act of disrespect towards the host of the banquet. It was an act of disrespect.    

    

Although they also felt that Lui Hongjiu's nonsense was a little boring, out of respect and a trace of fear towards Lui Hongjiu, no one dared to interrupt Lui Hongjiu's speech.    

    

While everyone was quietly waiting for what would happen next, they could not help but guess who Xue Chen was. He dared to interrupt Lui Hongjiu's speech.    

    

Although Lui Hongjiu had basically cleaned himself up, he was still a man of Underground World. No matter what, he couldn't get rid of his identity. If you wanted to challenge such a big boss, you had to think about whether or not he would use such a despicable method to deal with you later. Those methods are not something you can handle.    

    

Therefore, no one interrupted Lui Hongjiu's words. They pretended to listen and listened to Lui Hongjiu's nagging.    

    

But now, Xue Chen had interrupted them. How could they not be curious about Xue Chen's identity?    

    

To them, Xue Chen was an unfamiliar face. They did not have any impression of him. They only knew that Xue Chen came with Shen Xuening, so they did not have any useful information.    

    

Just as the strange atmosphere started to ferment, Xue Chen suddenly spoke again, "The famous Ninth Master, could he have forgotten me in the blink of an eye?"    

    

Lui Hongjiu looked at Xue Chen with a fake smile and said, "No, how could I have forgotten about Young Master Xue?"    

    

"I have a very deep impression of Young Master Xue." Lui Hongjiu emphasized the four words, "I just didn't expect to see Young Master Xue at my sixty-six birthday banquet today. I was a little absent-minded."    

    

"So I was absent-minded. I thought a busy person like Ninth Master would forget about me or not welcome me here." Xue Chen kept pressing on.    

    

Lui Hongjiu's expression did not change at all when he heard Xue Chen's words. He still put on a fake smile and said, "Young Master Xue really knows how to joke. How could I not welcome Young Master Xue?"    

    

"No matter who I am today, I will welcome and thank you from the bottom of my heart, not to mention you, Young Master Xue."    

    

One had to admit that people who stayed in society for a long time would become more and more round and slippery.    

    

Even when facing their enemies, they would act as if nothing had happened on the surface.    

    

For example, Lui Hongjiu now!    

    

Xue Chen was sure that this old man did not know how he wanted to settle the score with him. However, due to his pride and magnanimity, he had to act as if nothing had happened.    

    

"Since Ninth Master welcomes me so much, I wish Ninth Master a long life and a long life!" Xue Chen said with a faint smile.    

    

Old thing, I will let you deal with me today. Today, I will definitely let you have a birthday feast that you will never forget.    

    

After hearing Xue Chen's words, Lui Hongjiu's expression changed. Even the others.    

    

None of the people present were fools. They could tell that Xue Chen's words clearly implied that Lui Hongjiu was going to die sooner.    

    

For a moment, everyone couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Xue Chen. Who was this guy? How dare he curse Lui Hongjiu to die early? Was he really not afraid of Lui Hongjiu's revenge?    

    

Was Xue Chen afraid?    

    

Obviously, he wasn't afraid. If he was, Xue Chen wouldn't say that.    

    

Qiao Zhijun, on the other hand, was looking at Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu thoughtfully.    

    

To be honest, At this moment, Qiao Zhijun was also confused. What was going on?    

    

Are you going to say that Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu don't know each other? However, they had just said that they knew each other on the phone. Xue Chen cursed Lui Hongjiu to die early in front of so many people.    

    

What... What did this mean?    

    

Was he acting like a douche bag?    

    

Lui Hongjiu's expression became somewhat ugly. At the same time, the door beside him was also like this. A cold glint seemed to shoot out from his eyes and pierce through Xue Chen's heart.    

    

Xue Chen did not care about the sharp and aggressive gaze of the door. He completely ignored the door.    

    

Although Lui Hongjiu's heart was full of anger, he didn't flare up on the spot. Instead, he suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at Xue Chen.    

    

Xue Chen wasn't afraid at all. He looked at Lui Hongjiu with a playful expression.    

    

As for the intelligent Shen Xuening, she kept glancing at Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu. Her beautiful eyes were flashing with wisdom. No one knew what she was thinking in her heart.    

    

Just when everyone was trembling, Lui Hongjiu said with a smile, Thank you for your blessings, Mr. Xue!"    

    

Lui Hongjiu did not give Xue Chen a chance to speak. He said again, "Thank you for coming. Please do as you please. I will talk to Young Master Xue first."    

    

No one objected to Lui Hongjiu's words.    

    

They were tired of listening to Lui Hongjiu's nagging. It was good that they didn't say anything now.    

    

Under everyone's gaze, Lui Hongjiu slowly walked down from the platform and walked towards Xue Chen.    

    

The moment Lui Hongjiu moved, the door immediately closed and followed Lui Hongjiu towards Xue Chen.    

    

Lui Hongjiu and the door closed. When the two of them moved, they immediately attracted ninety percent of the attention in the banquet hall. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu. They were whispering to each other, but no one knew what they were talking about.    

    

In an instant, Lui Hongjiu came to Xue Chen's side. There was a seemingly simple and gentle smile on his face. "I really didn't expect that we would meet so soon."    

    

"This world is really small. I didn't expect to see you so soon." Xue Chen was neither servile nor overbearing. He said calmly, "If I had known you were celebrating your birthday today, I would have prepared a bigger gift for you to celebrate your sixty-sixth birthday."    

    

"Young Master Xue, didn't you give me a big gift?"    

    

"That's right. Those people's lives are indeed a big gift."    

    

Xue Chen seemed to have thought of something as he said, "I don't know if Ninth Master knows or not. There is a saying among the people."    

    

"Anyone who has passed the sixty-sixth birthday and eightieth birthday, as long as their life is not tough, they will be hospitalized at the very least and die at the most." "I think Ninth Master is old. I don't know if he will be able to handle it."    

    

Lui Hongjiu's expression changed when he heard Xue Chen's words. He was about to speak when the sound of the door closing was heard.    

    

"Brat, are you here to find trouble?"    

    

Xue Chen immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, how can I always find trouble!"    

    

Suddenly, Xue Chen's voice suddenly changed. "I came to make you guys worry."    

    

Just as Xue Chen said that, Lui Hongjiu and the person who closed the door changed their expressions again.    

    

"You..."    

    

"You can touch me first. If it's hard to understand, then you won't allow me to make you worry?" Xue Chen sneered. "Whoever doesn't let me live a good life, I won't let anyone live a good life. Lui Hongjiu is not one of them."    

    

At this moment, Xue Chen was the first to shed all pretenses of cordiality.    

    

When Lui Hongjiu was on the platform just now, it was not good for him to shed all pretenses of cordiality. But now, Lui Hongjiu walked down from the platform and spoke softly to each other.    

    

What was the point of continuing to wear a mask of hypocrisy and kindness?    

    

Therefore, Xue Chen tore off the mask on his face.    

    

"Kid, aren't you afraid that Feng Dashan will stop his tongue?" The eyes of the man who closed the door became more and more fierce. At the same time, a powerful Qi emerged from his body and swept toward Xue Chen.    

    

At this moment, the door was closed. It was as if a sharp blade had suddenly been drawn out of its sheath. His entire body carried a sharp aura.    

    

Xue Chen didn't feel at ease facing the sharp aura of the door closing. He wasn't scared at all. If the aura of the door closing alone was enough to scare him, then his name as Eternal Night Great Emperor would have changed a long time ago.    

    

Furthermore, he had seen the terrifying aura of the door before, so he wasn't afraid at all. What more now?    

    

Xue Chen's calm and indifferent expression made the door open with caution.    

    

Although the door wasn't fully closed, it didn't fully release its Qi. He knew that even if he revealed a trace of Qi, ordinary people would still feel afraid.    

    

But Xue Chen didn't.    

    

This guy was definitely not an ordinary person.    

    

"Why do you want to fight?" Xue Chen deliberately lowered his voice. "But before you do it, you better think about it carefully. Can you take me down?"    

    

"And today is this thing's birthday feast. Are you going to disturb his birthday feast?"    

    

"Do you think I don't dare to do anything to you?" The eyes of the person who closed the door immediately revealed an ominous glint. His killing intent was awe-inspiring.    

    

As soon as the words left his mouth, before Xue Chen could say anything, the right hand of the door was raised at lightning speed and grabbed at Xue Chen's shoulder.    

    

A black hand shadow flashed past, and his right hand grabbed Xue Chen's shoulder.    

    

Xue Chen did not seem to care about it, but his voice was cold to the extreme. "Old thing, let me give you a piece of advice. You'd better take your claw away from me. Otherwise, I will let you know what regret is!"    

    

"Kid, you're too arrogant. If I let you go today, "Then Ninth Master's face will be completely lost!"    

    

Shen Xuening had been paying attention to Xue Chen. When she saw the door was closed and her hand was on Xue Chen's shoulder, Shen Xuening pretended to walk towards Xue Chen who was a few steps away.    

    

She was the one who brought Xue Chen here. Regardless of whether Xue Chen and Lui Hongjiu had a grudge or not, Lui Hongjiu could not touch her people. Otherwise, it would be slapping Shen Xuening's face.    

    

Her face wasn't something that anyone could afford to slap in Fengxiang City.    

    

At this moment, a series of dull footsteps suddenly came in from the entrance of the banquet hall.    

    

At the same time the footsteps sounded, an alluring and ethereal voice entered everyone's ears. "Ninth Master, you are not being nice. It is the sixty-sixth birthday, yet you don't even invite me. Could it be that you are looking down on me?"
