Chapter 214: Chapter 214: He Takes the Chicken Feather as a Token

He didn’t even pretend!

Xu Guangyao’s face struggled to maintain its fake smile, but he had one advantage.

He could bend and stretch.

He cheerfully said, “Are you still angry with me? That day was indeed my fault, let’s talk it over, okay?”

“Sure.”

Huo Xingzhou readily responded, “Let’s talk upstairs.”

He just wanted to have a good talk with Xu Guangyao.

His eyes half-closed, a deep mockery hidden beneath.

Xu Guangyao joyfully said, “Our two families have always been close friends, any misunderstandings should be cleared up, why resort to in-fighting?”

“Close friends?”

Huo Xingzhou walked to the elevator and pressed the button, his tone mocking yet smiling, “The Huo Family and the Liu Family are close friends, what standing does the Xu Family have? Everyone in Haicheng knows, you climbed up through your wife’s family connections.”

His words struck Xu Guangyao right in the heart.

Xu Guangyao’s face turned a bit unsightly, but he still followed him into the elevator.

“You’re quite adept at leveraging connections,” Huo Xingzhou said indifferently, leaving Xu Guangyao unable to retort, only trying hard to keep his composure.

Old Chen chuckled behind them.

Xu Guangyao glared awkwardly at him.

Old Chen explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Xu, I just remembered a funny cold joke.”

Xu Guangyao felt like his blood vessels were about to burst in anger.

Ding.

The elevator doors opened.

Huo Xingzhou strode out with long steps and said in a deep voice, “Please wait for me, Uncle Xu, I have a morning briefing.”

Calling him Uncle Xu sounded more like mockery.

Xu Guangyao forcibly swallowed his anger, managing a smile, “Go ahead.”

“Old Chen, take Mr. Xu to the guest room.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Old Chen looked at Xu Guangyao and said, “This way, please.”

His demeanor was not that of treating a guest, but rather like escorting a prisoner.

Xu Guangyao, holding back his rage, followed him into the guest room.

Impudent brat!

He sat in the guest room, his temples throbbing fiercely. He had been sitting for a long while, yet no one offered him a cup of tea or water.

Endure!

Xu Guangyao took a deep breath, he could only endure!

The Xu Corporation was his own creation, meant to prove his capabilities!

He knew many people behind his back called him a kept man, those prestigious families looked down on him, thinking he rode on Liu Huimin’s coattails!

Twenty-two years ago, even many of Liu Huimin’s suitors publicly humiliated him!

Until he built up the Xu Corporation, making it bigger and stronger!

He wanted those people to see how he thrived!

How to tame their goddess thoroughly!

Dark thoughts sprang in his mind, including secretly humiliating Liu Huimin!

Watching her dote on her daughter from a mistress every day, he felt extremely delighted!

His relationship with Shen Shiyun was more like a revenge against the Liu Family. He couldn’t do it openly, only secretly!

Xu Guangyao waited in the guest room for two hours.

Seething with rage!

Finally, the door to the guest room was pushed open.

Huo Xingzhou looked at him with no apology in his tone, “Sorry, the meeting ran a bit late.”

“It’s okay,” Xu Guangyao gritted his teeth and forced a smile, “Tianyuan Group has extensive business, I understand.”

Huo Xingzhou watched him unconsciously licking his dry lips, his eyes smiling as he said, “The staff is inconsiderate, not even pouring you a glass of tea. Old Chen, go to the tea room and brew a cup of tea for Mr. Xu.”

“Yes, young master.”

Old Chen had been following Huo Xingzhou for a while and was very sensible.

Huo Xingzhou casually sat on the sofa and asked, “Mr. Xu, what brings you to Tianyuan Group today?”

Xu Guangyao watched his pretense and wished he could tear him apart, yet he had to say with a laugh, “Xingzhou, I’m sincerely apologizing to you.”

“You are too polite.”

Huo Xingzhou said faintly.

“Xingzhou, I only have one precious daughter, Xingluo. She is so enamored with you that I had no choice but to take such extreme measures,” he explained humbly.

“Xingzhou, it’s not a loss for you. Can you… perhaps spare us the trouble? Tianyuan Group has suspended the collaboration with the Xu Family, and you have also sabotaged my shipments. Isn’t the young man’s temper a bit too much?”

Huo Xingzhou smiled at him, nodding as he said, “Indeed. That was my fault, and I will instruct my staff accordingly. Tianyuan Group and the Xu Family will never collaborate.”

Temporarily?

Too merciful.

Xu Guangyao’s face turned a livid shade as he struggled to stabilize his emotions and said, “What good does this do for you?”

“It pleases me.” His brow creased, his eyes hiding a cold, chilling intention.

The doors to the meeting room opened, and Old Chen came in with a cup of tea, placing it in front of Xu Guangyao, “Mr. Xu, have some tea. I’ve added a few chrysanthemum petals, which cool heat and calm fire.”

The arrival of Old Chen broke the tense atmosphere in the room.

Xu Guangyao almost blurted out threats using the agreement to coerce Huo Xingzhou.

That was his trump card; he couldn’t reveal it carelessly.

Xu Guangyao picked up the cup of tea, using it to mask his emotions. His sharp eyes swept over Huo Xingzhou, and in an instant, he realized Huo Xingzhou’s intentions.

He probably already knew about the agreement signed ten years ago.

Huo Xingzhou’s rudeness was intended to force him to reveal the agreement to secure the Xu Family’s safety.

Such deep schemes!

Xu Guangyao was thankful that Old Chen had brought the tea, disrupting the rhythm of their confrontation.

His throat parched, he took a large gulp.

His taste buds were instantly overwhelmed by the bitterness, and Xu Guangyao choked, coughing furiously and clutching his chest as if his lungs were about to burst.

Old Chen frantically supported him and repeatedly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Xu, sorry! I added a handful of coptis that the Young Madam bought; I thought you liked bitter flavors.”

“You…”

Xu Guangyao’s well-maintained handsome face turned red, and he choked, tears almost falling.

The elegance of the scholar was completely lost.

His suit and tie were soaked with tea leaves and chrysanthemums hanging from them.

“Mr. Xu, let me get you a towel.” Old Chen casually picked up a rag and began wiping Xu Guangyao down.

Xu Guangyao pushed him away forcefully, “Don’t bother.”

He disgustedly patted away the leftovers on his clothes, his forehead throbbing intensely.

Huo Xingzhou watched with a detached expression, “Perhaps you should go home and change your clothes first, Mr. Xu. If you’re free later, we can talk more.”

“You… Xingzhou, don’t go too far! Even a cornered rabbit will bite,” Xu Guangyao finally couldn’t maintain his composure, his anger clearly evident.

“Are you a rabbit? Perhaps you are indeed a rabbit.”

The smile remained on Huo Xingzhou’s face, but the coldness in his eyes was visible.

Xu Guangyao, feeling insulted by his suggestive humiliation, left in a fury.

Old Chen couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Young master, your way of insulting is quite sophisticated.”

In ancient times, a rabbit also implied a male concubine.

Furthermore, rabbits are notorious for their quick… activities.

All in all, it was no compliment.

Huo Xingzhou’s eyelashes fluttered as he looked down, speaking disdainfully, “Xu Guangyao really thinks that agreement is his Gold Medal Command Arrow, believing he can control me.”

…

Seething with anger, Xu Guangyao stormed downstairs and got into his Lincoln, telling the driver, “Take a taxi back, I need to drive myself for a bit.”
