Chapter 758: A Shocked Xiao Huang
by xennovelEvening.
The Meilan clubhouse was as bustling as ever right on schedule for opening.
Moreover because Meilan had sent out invitations saying the last boxing match would be held tonight even more people came than usual.
But no one noticed that inside the Meilan clubhouse there were many unfamiliar faces among the guests and in the surrounding shops most of the staff had been replaced.
On the surface everything seemed no different from usual.
Xiao Huang’s Car stopped at the entrance.
The driver got out first to open the Car door. Xiao Huang stepped out adjusting his collar and unconsciously glanced around.
Suddenly he frowned slightly feeling something seemed off but couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
“Young Master Xiao good evening. I knew you’d definitely show up tonight.”
“Young Master Xiao why don’t we go together?”
“Hello Young Master Xiao.”
People coming and going greeted Xiao Huang smiling but inwardly disdainful.
With such a big incident in his family he still had the mood to watch a boxing match. Truly a good-for-nothing wastrel.
“After you everyone.”
Distracted by the greetings Xiao Huang cast aside that bit of alertness and followed the crowd into the Meilan clubhouse.
Meanwhile inside the Meilan clubhouse in Tang Silin’s suite.
Xu Shaochen and Tang Silin were watching Xiao Huang through the surveillance cameras.
“What about tonight’s boxing match? If it doesn’t go on as usual won’t it be hard to appease those who received invitations?”
Xu Shaochen said to Tang Silin while peeling an apple.
Tang Silin smiled faintly: “Is there any need to appease them? Any excuse will do. They all think Meilan’s owner has deep connections so they won’t dare make trouble.”
“It’s not just thinking the background of Meilan really is very deep.” Xu Shaochen corrected.
“So in Young Master Xu’s eyes a homeless woman also counts as having deep connections?” Tang Silin looked at Xu Shaochen with an ambiguous smile.
Xu Shaochen smiled cut the peeled apple in half and handed half to Tang Silin: “I’ve thought about it. The Tang Family was wiped out by Xiao Huang so you definitely don’t have any backing but that girlfriend of yours might be a different story?”
This was the only answer Xu Shaochen could think of.
Tang Silin didn’t have the background to support Meilan’s operations so someone must be helping her. That person was probably her lesbian partner.
Tang Silin raised an eyebrow neither confirming nor denying which meant Xu Shaochen was right.
“Miss Tang why don’t you introduce me to that girlfriend of yours?”
Xu Shaochen took a bite of the apple and put the fruit knife back in the fruit bowl.
“Since Young Master Xu has guessed she has deep connections do you think I’d let you meet her? It wouldn’t be good for her reputation if word got out.”
Tang Silin said expressionlessly. Li Qian Ya was the third young miss of the Li family’s main line. Being in a lesbian relationship would affect her reputation and the Li family’s name.
Xu Shaochen shrugged then asked curiously: “I’m quite curious how do you two… you know when you’re together?”
“I’m familiar with Young Master Xu’s romantic history. If you’re really curious have those women of yours perform for you. Why ask me?”
Tang Silin’s expression darkened feeling Xu Shaochen’s question had a hint of humiliation.
While they were verbally sparring Xiao Huang had already entered a private room in the underground boxing arena.
“Young Master Xiao please come with me. Our boss would like to see you.”
Xie Tianyu entered the room and said respectfully to Xiao Huang.
“Oh?”
Xiao Huang was stunned somewhat incredulous. Everyone knew the boss behind Meilan was very mysterious.
He hadn’t expected this boss would want to see him now.
“I’d be delighted.”
Of course he wouldn’t refuse. For whatever reason he was very curious about who was really behind Meilan.
And he never suspected there might be danger in going.
After all he thought if Meilan wanted to harm him he would have died countless times over these past few years.
“Young Master Xiao our boss wants to see you alone.”
Xie Tianyu glanced at the bodyguards behind Xiao Huang hinting at his meaning.
“You wait here.”
Leaving these words for his bodyguards Xiao Huang followed Xie Tianyu out of the private room.
A few minutes later they arrived outside Tang Silin’s suite.
“Young Master Xiao our boss is inside. Please cooperate with our security check. It’s the rules I hope you understand.”
Xie Tianyu said to Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang nodded and very cooperatively raised his hands.
The two guards at the door began to search him. Only after confirming he wasn’t hiding any weapons did they step back to their positions.
“Young Master Xiao I’ll take my leave now. You can go in by yourself. After all the boss said to see you not me.”
With that Xie Tianyu turned and left.
Xiao Huang stood at the door originally intending to push it open and go in but in the end he first reached out and knocked.
“Knock knock knock…”
Somehow maybe it was the impression Meilan had cultivated over the years that its boss was unfathomable.
So Xiao Huang felt somewhat constrained and nervous.
“Come in.”
After a moment a woman’s voice came from the room.
Xiao Huang was stunned. Meilan’s boss was actually a woman?
He felt even less worried now pushed open the door and walked in.
But when he saw the person on the sofa his expression changed drastically.
“Young Master Xiao surprised to see me here?”
Xu Shaochen looked up biting into an apple and said to Xiao Huang with a grin.
Xiao Huang felt uneasy and said with a gloomy face: “Xu Shaochen what are you doing here!”
His gaze turned to that woman.
Unfortunately from his angle he could only see her side profile. Her chestnut-colored slightly curled long hair covered her face making it impossible to see what she looked like.
But the moment he saw Xu Shaochen his heart sank to the bottom.
He finally realized what had felt off at the entrance. There were many unfamiliar faces in the surrounding shops.
But it was unrealistic to leave now so he could only remain calm and adapt to the situation.
The key to his escape probably lay with that woman.
That woman should be the boss of Meilan right?
“Why am I here?”
Xu Shaochen revealed a mocking smile and said casually:
“Xiao Huang that question of yours shows a lack of insight. Of course I’m here waiting for you.”
“What do you want?”
Xiao Huang asked coldly then looked at the woman: “Friend I assume you’re the boss of Meilan? What’s the meaning of this?”
“Xiao Huang do you still recognize me?”
Tang Silin turned her head looked at Xiao Huang and revealed a bright smile.
“It’s you!”
Xiao Huang was instantly shocked his face turning pale as he involuntarily took a step back.
