Chapter 85
Having a pleasant chat? I don't believe it. The Wang family has snatched your Myriad Base City Plaza project and sh*t on your face. Even if you go to pay respects, this has already caused your reputation to plummet. How can you still stay cheerful and sum everything up by saying you're having a pleasant chat?
Tang Zhenshan pondered. He speculated that Jiang Xiu must've gotten defeated after going to the Wang family and finally felt terrified. He thought that he was trying to save face by saying it like this. "That's fine then. Mr. Jiang, I'll be reaching Boss Zhong's holiday resort soon. Shall I come to receive you?"
"No need. Someone from the Wang family is accompanying me."
After ending the call, Jiang Xiu stated, "Watching the waves rush towards the land from a height is a fascinating scene. Mr. Wang, will you accompany this Deity to see the tides?"
"I'm willing," replied Wang Xuehai.
"Please follow me!"
Those in the inner courtyard of the Wang family were all members of the Wang family, but the people assembled at the doorway were all outsiders here to ask for the Wang family's help. The Wang family would lose their face if Jiang Xiu exited from there unharmed after abruptly barging into their home.
The Old Madame suggested, "It isn't much of a sight to see the tides from here. Our family has a helicopter. Is Mr. Jiang willing to ride in it?"
"The guest shall follow the host's plans."
He wasn't anxious about the Wang family playing tricks with him as he had Wang Xuehai in his grasp.
The Wang family was indeed worthy of being called a family with a heritage of 200 years. There was even a helicopter site in the Gardens. The Old Madame personally delivered them there, "The assets shall be ready by dinner time. Mr. Jiang can appreciate the river tides with ease till then."
"Take care!"
Wang Xintong hid outside, gazing at Jiang Xiu who boarded the helicopter along with the family head, feeling shocked. She had brought Jiang Xiu here and believed that she had doomed the Wang family, causing the deaths of her brothers and sisters. She was baffled that the Old Madame was personally delivering him out, and even sending the family head to accompany him despite killing so many people of the Wang family, something which even his death couldn't appease.
"This…"
"What's going on?"
The Wang family's elders panicked after watching the helicopter fly far, "Old Madame, is there a need for our Wang family to act so polite to him? Does our Wang family need to fear him just because he is a Demigod?"
A fierce glint flashed through the Old Madame's eyes as she spoke in a deep voice, "You dimwit!"
"Tell me, how many Demigods are there in China?"
That Elder calmed his agitation after hearing this question.
"Our China has thirteen people in the Demigod Ranking, only thirteen. Do you understand what this means?"
"That youngster's power is equal to those people. Regarding strength, he stands at the summit of the pyramid in China."
Everyone finally realized what kind of person Jiang Luoxia was.
"Yes. Our Wang family doesn't need to be afraid of him, but do you want him to fight with the Old Ancestor guarding us?"
If the Demigod protecting the family is defeated, it will end with the family withering later on.
That Jiang Luoxia doesn't have anything to worry about, but that doesn't mean our Wang family must bet everything against him.
Some of them still felt frustrated, "Are we really going to give him 80% of the family's assets?"
Their members killed, money seized, they wondered whether they really had to accept this humiliation lying down.
"Xuesong, you're becoming dumber with age. Even our Wang family isn't clear about how many assets we have, let alone him. We'll just give him some of it."
Everyone wore a look of understanding.
Supposedly the Wang family possessed assets worth 100 billion. They would have to give 80 billion to Jiang Xiu with only 20 billion left for them. That would influence the Wang family too much and also make them lose face.
The Old Madame's gaze was quite keen. She had upheld the family for a long time. Though the developments of events were spiraling downwards, there would always be chances. Their goal was for the family to exist forever.
"Go and prepare the properties properly."
It took 1-2 hours to drive from the Wang family's home to the resort area, but it only took 5-6 minutes in the helicopter. Though the resort didn't have a fancy landing site, it was easy to find a place where they could descend.
The helicopter flew over the crowd and reached the tallest building, landing on the roof. Tang Zhenshan, Boss Zhong and the rest were waiting there together for a long time.
This was no matter to kid about. They couldn't make the slightest mistake when facing two bigshots like Mr. Wang and Mr. Jiang.
"Mr. Wang…"
Tang Zhenshan and Boss Zhong called out deferentially. Tang Zhenshan had seen Wang Xuehai before, but someone like Boss Zhong from the lower ranks was seeing him for the first time and felt quite terrified.
Wang Xuehai wore a cold face and didn't bother to reply.
He wasn't in the mood to deal with insignificant people like them.
"Mr. Jiang…"
"The best bayside villa has already been prepared…"
"Which one?"
"Naturally the Bayview Pavilion…" This villa was created to watch the tides. The tides could be observed the best from there, and it was also the best villa in the resort.
Jiang Xiu nodded, "Accompany Mr. Wang while I go get my things."
His things were still in the single room. Though it only consisted of a small bag of clothes, he still had to take it back.
After gathering his things, he was just about to leave when he heard someone knock on the door. Cheng Lingsu stood outside and was about to say something when she felt astonished after seeing him gather his things, "Where are you going?"
"This Deity is moving to another room."
"Your room was also changed?"
Cheng Lingsu and the others' accommodations were arranged at the villas. Ye Wenchen received special treatment and was given the famous Bayview villa, but Brother Zhong had now told them to move out because some bigshot had arrived. They were also helpless and could only move to another villa but still felt depressed due to the disparity of treatment.
As they were moved from a high-class villa to a lower one, how much lower would Jiang Xiu's accommodations become?
At most, it'd be a toilet.
"To where?"
"To a villa!"
"A villa?" Cheng Lingsu's eyes open wide, but a cold frost covered her face in the next moment, "Did Uncle Jiang send you money?"
"How can you act with so much vanity? You want to live in a villa just because we are living in one?"
"Do you think you're allowed to live in a villa and, and this Deity isn't able to?"
Cheng Lingsu frowned, "Can't you see your family's circumstances? Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang naturally rewarded you for getting a good score on the exam, but that doesn't mean you can waste it just to compete with us."
"I had difficulty with changing my opinion of you, but now you've really made me feel disappointed. How did Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang raise such a son like you? They're working hard so that you can study in a university later on and yet you're wasting their money like this?
Jiang Xiu furrowed his brows, "Did you come here just to say this?"
"Forget it. There's no point in telling this to you. I came to inform you that our rooms were changed so that you don't go into the previous room like an idiot."
It wouldn't be proper if Jiang Xiu knocked on that room's door after the bigshot moves in.
She came running over to notify him.
"That's all."
She turned around to leave but then stopped, "This room is free and isn't much different from your home or the dorm. Don't waste money in vain and act befitting to your status."
She left after saying this.
Cheng Lingsu didn't know since when her prejudice towards Jiang Xiu had grown deeper. Although Jiang Xiu didn't do anything excessive, except for duping her into washing his clothes once, and even honored his promise by signing the contract to get rid of the engagement, she felt quite agitated and found it difficult to calm down when looking at him.
He was unmistakably a poor sob but always acted aloof as if he loathed everything. Cheng Lingsu disliked his gaze, which seemed to say he didn't put anything in this world in his eyes.
She wanted him to lower his head towards her, perhaps she would feel like treating him better then.
"Susu, what's up?" asked Ouyang Qian when she saw her return in anger.
"It's nothing!"
All their faces were ugly right now. Especially Ye Wenchen as the Zhong family had treated him exceptionally well during lunch time but didn't give him any face now and wanted him to move into another villa.
This was plain disrespect.
He could accept it any other time but never in front of Cheng Lingsu.
"Motherf*cker. Which bigshot is so amazing that he has forced us out?" Lin Shu cursed out loudly.
