Chapter 431: Chapter 431: A Direct Slap in the Face!
She hung up right after finishing her statement.

Huang Xiaolong found this both funny and annoying. “Seriously? The old man’s family seems very unsatisfied that he took me as his disciple… Well, if all of the Jin Family’s descendants are wild horses running amok, then… I will be their tamer, and I will tame them all!”

He didn’t take Jin Mengqi’s threat seriously at all… Do normal people care about the threats of ants? They could easily be squash with a slight stomp of the foot.

Huang Xiaolong quickly washed up, changed his clothes, went out, and stood at the hotel entrance, waiting with a big grin on his face.

“That Jin Mengqi has such a nice voice, I wonder what she looks like. Hopefully, she’s not a monster,” a hint of expectation crept onto Huang Xiaolong’s face.

Soon, a Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up in front of him. The car window rolled down, “You’re Huang Xiaolong, right? I saw you at grandpa’s centenary celebration yesterday.”

The driver was a girl about the same age as Sun Wei. Her beautiful and melodic voice was unmistakable; it was Jin Mengqi who had just called him.

She was wearing a white dress and looked absolutely stunning. Her frosty aloofness was tantalizingly mixed with a smoldering allure, making her irresistible. She sat in the driver’s seat like a Snow Lotus, capturing many people’s hearts.

As far as beauty was concerned, she was on par with Huang Xiaolong’s sister, Sun Wei.

However, her martial arts skills were much superior to Sun Wei. Like Wei Feiyang, who was killed by Huang Xiaolong the night before, Jin Mengqi was at the half-step Grandmaster realm. She could kill anyone within 10 meters with a single thought!

“Get in.” Jin Mengqi said indifferently.

Drawing up a grin, in comically easy-going fashion, Huang Xiaolong opened the car door and got in.

The vehicle was filled with a pleasant fragrance, giving off a slightly intoxicating air.

“Let’s find a place to talk openly and honestly on behalf of the Jin Family.” Jin Mengqi said succinctly and then drove off.

“Erm… Is Old Master Jin your grandpa?” Huang Xiaolong mused with a smirk. “Since he calls me his master, technically, you should be calling me grandmaster… oh wait, it’s actually great-grandmaster…”

“Shut up!” Jin Mengqi’s face suddenly turned ashen, her anger was palpable. She glared fiercely at Huang Xiaolong, as if she wanted to kill him right there and then, “This subject is off the table forever! How dare you… you… you! This incident is a great humiliation for our Jin Family!”

Truth be told, even when she was angry, Jin Mengqi’s voice was still very pleasing to the ear.

Huang Xiaolong was intrigued… if this girl making sounds like those in films, she could send men straight to heaven!

“No, on the contrary, this should be a glorious occasion for your Jin Family. You should feel honored to attain such great fortune.” Huang Xiaolong said earnestly.

“You… you… you…” Jin Mengqi was shaking with anger, she took deep breaths to calm herself down, then pleaded earnestly. “Huang Xiaolong, you are undoubtedly talented. In the field of calligraphy, not only my grandpa, but the rest of us greatly admire you. But… your skills alone… are not enough… The Jin Family is not easily impressed, so… don’t flatter yourself… rest assured, we will compensate you handsomely. That’s why I am here today.”

” Hehe~~~” Huang Xiaolong only chuckled.

After a short while, Jin Mengqi pulled up at a high-class café.

They parked and got off.

“Follow me.” Jin Mengqi led Huang Xiaolong to the second floor of the café.

They settled in a private room.

They ordered two cups of coffee and asked the waiter to not disturb them.

The private room on the second floor had a large outdoor patio which overlooked a sparkling lake. Here, customers could relax comfortably in a corner for a chat, or settle down by the patio to enjoy the beautiful lake view. With a gentle breeze blowing across the lake, even while having coffee, one could feel slightly tipsy.

Jin Mengqi looked out over the mirror-like lake surface, “Many people believe that the Chen Family is the No.1 family in Jiangnan City. However, that’s not the case. It’s actually our Jin Family. We are a leading commercial powerhouse in Jiangnan City or even nationwide. To put it bluntly, in the bustling coastal city of Jiangnan, out of every 100 jobs, at least 30 are provided by our Jin Family. This café is just one of the businesses owned by an un-favored side branch of the third generation Jin Family. Huang Xiaolong, you simply can’t compare to our Jin Family, even the slightest connection to us is impossible… You understand, right? There is a major difference between our worlds, our social classes… Do you get it?”

“I asked you out today to negotiate a peaceful resolution of this matter,” Jin Mengqi said, looking at Huang Xiaolong with a patronizing look.

“Are you finished?” Even if he hadn’t been paying much attention, Huang Xiaolong was a little annoyed by her defeatist remarks.

“You’re talented… but our Jin Family is more than just a business dynasty. You cannot possibly imagine the depth of our resources…” As she was talking, Jin Mengqi took out a cheque from her bag. “This is a cheque for 50 million. Take it and leave Jiangnan City immediately… and never, ever show up in front of my grandpa again.”

“Pfft~~~~” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“What, you think it’s too little?” Jin Mengqi gave a snort of contempt. “True… considering your astounding talent in calligraphy, 50 million might not seem like a significant amount to you. In that case——”

Jin Mengqi took out yet another prepared cheque, “This cheque is for 200 million. Everyone has their price. So, here you have a total of 250 million. This should be enough to buy you. Even with your amazing talent, you would never make this much money in your lifetime. Now, all you have to do is nod, and this fortune is yours. 250 million is our bottom line.”

Indeed, even in the bustling city of Jiangnan, 250 million is a huge fortune. Anyone who possesses this amount of money could enter the ranks of the wealthy.

The reason the Jin Family was willing to offer so much money was because of Old Master Jin’s admiration for Huang Xiaolong. He is not only an admirer but also an adorer!

Killing Huang Xiaolong to silence him would be highly risky. If the truth were to be discovered by Old Master Jin, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, they could only bribe Huang Xiaolong to take a hike.

The descendants of the Jin family, after discussions and evaluations, believed that 250 million would be an offer Huang Xiaolong couldn’t refuse.

“250 million?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.

“Yes, if you do as I say, this money will be yours.” Jin Mengqi pulled a pack of women’s cigarettes from her bag, lit one up, and started smoking gracefully.

The way she smoked, was incredibly elegant, showing a kind of intellectual beauty.

There’s no denying it, this woman, was a beauty. An extreme beauty.

In Jin Mengqi’s heart, she was one hundred percent sure that 250 million would definitely buy Huang Xiaolong’s loyalty. It could genuinely purchase him!

“Pfft~~~~” Huang Xiaolong burst into laughter, then he reached into his pocket to rummage around. He pulled out several crumpled cashier’s checks and tossed them onto the table. “Here you go; this is 1 billion… Get a room tonight, lie on the bed like those girls in the movies, and moan for me all night. The money is yours.”

Ka~~~~~

Jin Mengqi’s face suddenly became rigid.

The 1 billion was what Huang Xiaolong won from a bet last night.

The next second, Jin Mengqi was absolutely furious!

Her face burned, as if she’d been slapped.

She tried to slap Huang Xiaolong with an offer of 250 million, but he responded by slapping her with 1 billion!

At this moment——

Knock, knock, knock~~Knock, knock, knock~~

There was a knock at the door.

Jin Mengqi, already furious, coldly scolded without turning her head, “I said no one’s allowed in here to disturb us!”

The door opened, and a woman’s voice filled with a kind of celestial charm drifted in, “Sister Mengqi, are you angry about something?”

Huang Xiaolong looked up and saw Ying Aoshan standing chicly at the entrance of the room, but her eyes were fixed on Huang Xiaolong.

“Yi…Yi…Ying Aoshan…” Jin Mengqi quickly reined in her anger and forced a smile onto her face. She dared not to be disrespectful and quickly got up to greet her, “Miss Aoshan…Did…Did…Did you need me for something?”

True, the Jin family is indeed a wealthy family in Jiangnan City, but compared to the Ying family, one of the top ten ancient martial arts families, they are nothing more than a small shrimp.

Old Master Jin was only a son-in-law of a collateral branch of the Ying family!

You could even say that the Jin family is a vassal of the Ying Family!

Therefore, Ying Aoshan’s status was naturally far above that of the descendants of the Jin family like Jin Mengqi! Even if Old Master Jin himself came, he’d have to lower his head and curry favor when he saw Ying Aoshan!

To put it in perspective, if Ying Aoshan was a rich young lady, then Jin Mengqi, in front of her, could only be a maid!

Moreover, Aoshan Ying is a grandmaster of ancient martial arts!

This time, with Ying Aoshan’s personal visit to their room, Jin Mengqi felt flabbergasted and her body slightly shook in excitement.

`Miss Aoshan… she… she came to find me! That… That’s unbelievable! Usually, Miss Aoshan wouldn’t even bother to look at me. Today, she actually came to me! She came to find me in person!`

Jin Mengqi raised her eyes filled with gratitude and looked at Ying Aoshan.

Unexpectedly.

Ying Aoshan didn’t really pay any attention to Jin Mengqi. She walked towards Huang Xiaolong with a smile on her face, “Young Master Huang, I saw you outside the cafe earlier, and I followed you all the way here. I asked the waiter and found out you were in this room. I hope you don’t mind my intrusion?”

“Oh, since you’re here, have a seat,” Huang Xiaolong said cheerfully.

“Young Master Huang, you’ve been avoiding me time and again. Do you find me that repulsive?” Ying Aoshan sat down as she spoke, her eyes full of reproach as she looked at Huang Xiaolong.

Whack~~~~~~~

Jin Mengqi stood stiffly to one side, her face looked like it had been slapped hard!

She had been delusional! Ying Aoshan was not here for her at all!
