Chapter 737: A Man’s Program

The Chen Family’s birthday banquet had concluded.

Two major events spread throughout the upper echelons of Jingcheng.

The first was the grudge between Xu Shaochen and the Xiao Family.

The second was naturally the “grand gift” Old Master Chen gave to Xu Shaochen.

At this moment Xu Shaochen was sitting across from Old Master Chen.

“Old Master I’ve been imagining what kind of grand gift you’d give to a junior like me but you’ve just added another burden on me.”

Xu Shaochen looked at Old Master Chen and shook his head with a wry smile.

“You can’t say that. The Chen Family may not compare to the Xu Corporation in wealth but isn’t the domestic network of connections a gain for you?”

Old Master Chen said with a smile.

Chen Ju was the next heir of the Chen Family and Xu Shaochen was considered half of one.

After this news spread.

Those who remembered the Chen Family’s kindness would surely give face to Xu Shaochen.

“Then Old Master would you say I’ve lost or gained in this deal?”

Xu Shaochen said with a smile.

Old Master Chen said calmly “Shaochen life isn’t just about business. It can’t be measured only by loss or gain otherwise it would be too boring.”

Xu Shaochen was stunned then looked at Old Master Chen and said seriously “Thank you for the guidance Old Master. I was being short-sighted.”

The conversation with Old Master Chen continued until the afternoon.

When Xu Shaochen left the Chen Family residence with Xie Wei it was already five in the afternoon.

After coming out he realized that Zhao Li and Liang Huan hadn’t left yet.

“Young Master Xu.”

Seeing Xu Shaochen come out the two quickly went up to greet him.

“Why haven’t you left yet? Do you have something for me?” Xu Shaochen nodded and asked.

Zhao Li said “Last time we didn’t drink to our heart’s content so Liang Huan and I thought we’d continue the second half tonight.”

“Let’s not. I’m a bit tired today.” Xu Shaochen refused the proposal.

“Young Master Xu there’s a special program tonight.” Zhao Li said meaningfully.

Liang Huan also chimed in with a wink “Young Master Xu it’s a program exclusively for us men. The kind that makes men excited and howl and it’s very intense with blood flowing at the drop of a hat.”

Xie Wei couldn’t bear to listen anymore feeling her ears were dirty. She gave Xu Shaochen a warning look.

After all she came with a mission to represent the sisters at home and monitor Xu Shaochen preventing him from fooling around outside.

To quote Mei Liangying.

If he messes around outside and gets sick wouldn’t all of us women suffer?

“Ahem ahem.” Feeling Xie Wei’s killing intent Xu Shaochen coughed twice interrupting the two and said righteously “What kind of person do you take me for? I wouldn’t watch such an indecent program.”

The two were stunned upon hearing this “Young Master Xu we’re talking about a boxing match. What were you thinking?”

Xu Shaochen “…………”

Xie Wei “…………”

A program exclusively for men that makes everyone excited and howl when watching intense with blood flowing.

This really does sound like a boxing match but why does it feel so easy to misunderstand?

“We’ll talk about this tonight. If I decide to go I’ll call you.”

Giving the two an ambiguous answer he then left with Xie Wei.

Xu Shaochen didn’t return to the hotel but took Xie Wei to the hospital to see Deng Tianwen first.

Upon arriving at the hospital they found that the corridor leading to Deng Tianwen’s ward was full of bodyguards and even the doctors and nurses changing Deng Tianwen’s dressings had to be searched.

This gave Xu Shaochen the illusion of meeting a big shot.

These were the first batch of people from the Deng Family over twenty of them looking quite formidable.

When Xu Shaochen entered the ward Hou Xiaoyan was feeding Deng Tianwen porridge as his injured hand made it inconvenient.

“Deng Tianwen how afraid of dying are you? Damn I thought I walked into the wrong place just now.”

Xu Shaochen couldn’t help but mock.

“I’m not afraid of dying. I’m mainly afraid that if I die I won’t be able to see Yan anymore and I’m more afraid that Yan would be heartbroken because of my death.”

Deng Tianwen said affectionately barely raising one hand to hold one of Hou Xiaoyan’s delicate hands.

Hou Xiaoyan’s face slightly reddened and she glared at him “Stop talking nonsense. Doesn’t eating keep your mouth shut?”

“Ah~” Deng Tianwen opened his mouth.

Xu Shaochen also opened his mouth getting a mouthful of doggie treats.

Misfortune might be a blessing in disguise.

Deng Tianwen suffered physical pain but finally achieved his goal of establishing a romantic relationship with Hou Xiaoyan.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances the first thing he’d probably do after recovering would be to engage in baby-making activities with Hou Xiaoyan.

“Today I crippled one of Xiao Huang’s hands.”

Xu Shaochen said.

“Satisfying!” Deng Tianwen shouted then said with a cold gaze “When my people are all here I want to see if he’s really invulnerable to weapons.”

“Now you don’t need to target just Xiao Huang. Anyone from the Xiao Family you can deal with them harshly.”

Xu Shaochen said. After today’s incident the Xiao Family definitely wouldn’t let it go.

“What happened?”

Deng Tianwen was stunned. The Xiao Family included Xiao Huang but Xiao Huang didn’t represent the entire Xiao Family.

How could the Xiao Family possibly confront them before Xiao Huang’s death?

“Sigh.”

Xu Shaochen sighed and said earnestly “It’s just that I was worried it would be too difficult for you to target only Xiao Huang so I helped you expand the scope of the attack a bit.”

“Get lost!”

Deng Tianwen cursed irritably. This was clearly an attempt to drag him into confronting the entire Xiao Family.

……………

Xiao Family residence.

In the living room all the direct bloodline members of the Xiao Family were gathered.

The uncles’ generation was seated while the younger generation only had the right to stand.

At this moment the living room was in a state of tension. No one dared to breathe heavily and the younger generation was particularly nervous.

“What do you say?”

Xiao Li broke the silence with a gloomy face.

“What else is there to say? They’ve already bullied our Xiao Family. Even if it’s the King of Heaven we should at least break half his life!”

“Well said. Although the Xu Corporation is powerful they have too many restrictions domestically. In Jingcheng they’re no match for our Xiao Family. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“If our Xiao Family lets this go wouldn’t any Tom Dick or Harry be able to ride on our heads and piss on us in the future?”

“I think we can talk to him first. If he’s willing to apologize and make amends we could let it go. If he doesn’t agree then we fight!”

Everyone’s attitude was very unified and they had strong confidence.

“Good since that’s the case let’s settle it like this. Courtesy before force. We’ll talk to him first. If he doesn’t know what’s good for him then we’ll let him know the consequences of offending our Xiao Family!”

Xiao Li made the final decision on this matter.

If they could reach an agreement and Xu Shaochen was willing to apologize and compensate their Xiao Family would naturally save face.

This way they could avoid a lose-lose situation. Well that’s what they thought would be a lose-lose situation.

If they couldn’t reach an agreement it wouldn’t be too late to fight then.
