“What? Another one wanting to become my disciple?” Huang Xiaolong yawned and stretched lazily. “I’m not interested. You’re a grown man, I’m not interested in teaching you. You wish! You think I’d casually teach you something and you’d be able to transform and reach great heights… Why should I let you benefit? I’m not that stupid.”
With that, Huang Xiaolong started for the banquet hall entrance. “I’m tired, I’m going to go home and sleep. Sister Bai Hu, I’ll meet you at school tomorrow, I have something for you.”
“Alright! Alright!” Sun Wei was overjoyed.
“Feiyan, let’s go.” Huang Xiaolong signaled to Cui Feiyan.
Cui Feiyan cheerfully followed him.
“Sister!” Lin Zicong rushed to Lin Jing’s side in urgency. “Sister, help me ask for mercy! I really want to learn from him, I’m serious!”
“Little Long…” Lin Jing suddenly spoke up.
“Sister Jing.” Huang Xiaolong looked back at her and smiled.
“Little Long, although my brother is mischievous, he will definitely mend his ways from now on. Can you teach him some things?” Lin Jing wore a charming smile as she spoke to Huang Xiaolong.
“Oh… Since Sister Jing asked, I’ll casually give him some pointers when I have time. But whether he’ll learn depends on him…” Huang Xiaolong responded with a lazy smile.
“Yes! Thank you… Thank you, master! From this day forward, I, Lin Zicong, will respect you above all!” Lin Zicong bowed seriously.
After giving his instructions, Huang Xiaolong didn’t stick around. He left the banquet hall with Cui Feiyan.
Suddenly, on his way out, he saw Shu Jie, looking as defeated as a beaten rooster.
Huang Xiaolong stopped in his tracks.
“Hey, it seems you owe me an apology.” Huang Xiaolong glanced at Shu Jie impatiently. “Hurry up and apologize!”
“I ” As soon as Shu Jie made eye contact with Huang Xiaolong, he seemed to be caught in an illusion, seeing a hell, endless skeletal figures, a sea of red…
“Sorry! I was wrong I’m sorry… I… I’ll never raise my voice in front of you again… forgive me… I’m sorry, please forgive me…” Shu Jie’s knees went weak, and he almost knelt down in front of Huang Xiaolong, tearfully apologizing again and again.
In the end, Huang Xiaolong left the banquet hall with Cui Feiyan while everyone watched them go.
“Ah Who would have thought that the highlight of tonight’s banquet would be this young man dressed as a country bumkin ” Butler Shu shook his head thoughtfully.
“A dragon does not cross the river if the water doesn’t flow. This young man has a bright future.” Lin Jianfeng laughed, then looked at Lin Zicong with a doting expression. “Zicong, you can take a long vacation for now, don’t return to the army, stay in Binhai, and get to know your teacher.”
Dad, I understand,” Lin Zicong nodded.
“Hmph!” Gao Tianxiang’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, as if he was brewing some sinister plot.
Outside the hotel.
A cool breeze was blowing.
The night view of Binhai was like a sultry woman, full of enchantment and allure.
Huang Xiaolong looked at his phone. There was a WeChat message from Chairman Qiu, showing understanding and respect for Huang Xiaolong’s “serious business”, and decided not to disturb him. The matter of curing infertility could wait for another day when Huang Xiaolong was free.
“Phew ” Cui Feiyan let out a long sigh. “Little Long, everything that happened tonight really feels like a dream. No, the whole day feels like I’m living in a dream…”
Cui Feiyan looked at the youthful Huang Xiaolong by her side with a sense of bewilderment. “Little Long, you really are a mystery…”
Cui Feiyan had a surreal feeling, her experiences of the day felt like a fairy tale. However, the cash check that Huang Xiaolong had given her told her that all of this was real! Real hard cash!
“Feiyan, don’t think too much.” Huang Xiaolong grinned, then purposefully yawned. “Feiyan, I’m so tired… I want to sleep… Remember that hotel last time? The bed was so comfortable…”
“Pfft ” Cui Feiyan laughed, her cheeks turning a charming shade of red. “Little Long, take me home. I still have to discuss the contract matter with President Zeng Huatian tomorrow… Um, if you like that hotel, then… I… I… I’ll book a room next time.”
Cui Feiyan lowered her head in embarrassment, her eyes filled with a hint of affection.
“Oh, alright then, Feiyan, I’ll drive you home first.” Huang Xiaolong didn’t push Cui Feiyan further. He was confident she wouldn’t change her mind after the connection they’ve made.
Huang Xiaolong drove his BYD F3, taking Cui Feiyan back to her apartment complex.
“Little Long, what’s really going on between you and Miss Sun Wei of the Sun Family?” In the car, Cui Feiyan gazed at the bright city lights outside the window, casually asking.
“Oh… there’s not much to it.” Huang Xiaolong laughed mischievously.
Cui Feiyan was a very intelligent woman, she did not ask any further questions.
“Little Long, today was the happiest, most relaxing, and most magical day of my life… Thank you!” Before she got out of the car, Cui Feiyan thanked Huang Xiaolong. She opened the door, and, suddenly turning back, she pecked Huang Xiaolong on the cheek, “I… I like you!”
After saying that, Cui Feiyan got out of the car as if running away from the scene.
“Uh ” Huang Xiaolong touched the spot where Cui Feiyan had kissed him, “Isn’t she supposed to kiss me on the lips?”
Huang Xiaolong watched as Cui Feiyan took off her high heels, did a happy dance, lightly humming a tune, and entered the apartment complex like a carefree little girl.
“Ah time to go home! I can’t wait to cuddle up with Sister Xiaoman.” Huang Xiaolong sped off.
Night fell.
A cool and quiet night.
The Gao Family villa.
The bright lights shone in a spacious conference room.
The head of the Gao Family sat in a Taishi Chair. The light accentuated his tired face, making him look even older.
He rubbed his temples with his hands.
There were others in the conference room.
Three wheelchairs with three occupants.
Gao Zhongkang and his wife.
And, the young head of the Eagle Claw Clan… ‘Mr. Gongsun’.
Each of them had assistants attending to them.
They all had one thing in common – a blank stare, drool flowing from the corners of their mouths, and they occasionally blurted absurd phrases.
Throughout this, Gao Zhongkang and his wife, aside from appearing silly and vacant, seemed physically fine.
Mr. Gongsun, however, had broken limbs wrapped in bandages.
“Brother Gongsun… ah… we are all parents here… the current state of your son… I… I deeply regret it.” The head of the Gao Family spoke with sorrow. “Zhongkang and my daughter-in-law… they too… ah… I’ve had the best doctors in Binhai examine them. They’ve lost their memories and their IQ… their IQ is that of… a four-year-old…”
“Hahaha Are you saying that my son, my darling son, has become an idiot?” Sitting next to the head of the Gao Family was a peculiar man.
This man was strange because even in this sweltering weather, he was covered head to toe in a hooded cloak, hiding his face completely.
However, his eyes were incredibly bright, flickering with a malevolent gleam. It sent a shiver down one’s spine, making one feel as if they were being watched by a venomous snake.
