THE MIGHTIEST LITTLE PEASANT

306-310

Chapter 306

Xue Cheng and Xue Kai’s jaw dropped when they saw the scene.

‘Is… Is there a need to?

‘Why is everyone leaving after the kid left? Who the hell is that kid?’

Xue Cheng was worried. “Hey, don’t go just yet! Boss Qian, Boss Li… What are you all doing?”

Those people turned around, shook their heads, and left as fast as they could. They did not want to be mistaken for supporting the Xue family just because they stayed there a while too long.

‘They’re a lost cause. I should pretend that I don’t know them.’

Xue Cheng was thoroughly confused.

In a daze, he looked around the now-empty event hall. Just earlier, the guests had showered him with attention. He felt extremely pleased to be flattered and praised for returning to his roots after making it big elsewhere.

However, the sudden rejection by everyone brought him down from the clouds to the earth.

He could not accept the sudden change in everyone’s attitudes.

He stood on the spot. His fists were clenched tight and his face was ashen.

“Old Master Tao, Old Master Kong, what is going on? Who is that kid?” He turned around and asked the people standing next to him.

The three people were the pioneers of the business world in Westridge. They were friends with the patriarch of the Xue family.

The three people looked at each other and sighed.

It was quite inconvenient for them to side with him!

“That’s beyond our control, Xue Cheng. I can only say that the kid is much more powerful than he appears. Now that you’ve crossed him, you can’t start a successful business here.”

“That kid’s name is Tang Hao. Don’t see that he’s just a young kid, he has a powerful background! No one in Westridge dares to cross him.”

After that, the three men excused themselves.

Only Xue Cheng and his son were left in the event hall.

Xue Cheng’s expression changed several times. He regretted what he did. The family patriarch decided to branch out to Westridge, and he was there to make inroads.

Everything was going well until Xue Kai ruined it. What should he tell the patriarch?

“What actually happened?” He turned around and asked Xue Kai.

Xue Kai trembled with fear when he saw his father’s stern expression. He had no choice but to truthfully recount the events.

“What? You did that just because of a woman? And he didn’t even lay a finger on you?” Xue Cheng roared. His face was red because of anger.

He lifted his right hand a few times, wanting to slap his son, but eventually resisted the urge.

“So that’s why you were so eager to follow me back here. It’s all because of that woman! Why can’t you be a little more rational? You can get whatever woman you want with your qualifications.”

“Didn’t you see her, Dad? She’s as pretty as a fairy from the heavens,” Xue Kai said pitifully.

“Yes, she’s pretty as a fairy, but what’s the point? Why haven’t you understood? Women are nothing when compared to riches and status!

“Now that you’ve ruined everything, your Second Uncle would be furious!” Xue Cheng roared.

Xue Kai lowered his head and said nothing.
