Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 1959 - 288: Teasing 1

However, Wang Yue was not in the least affected. He said calmly, ”Thatʼs right, it was me who did it. That person deserved to be beaten. If it werenʼt for you all being here, I would have killed him on the spot!”

Xin Xiaoxiao couldnʼt help but frown.

As the official organization responsible for maintaining order in Jinling, the police department paid close attention to the powerful families of Jinling and had gathered a lot of information about them.

Determined to become a good police officer, Xin Xiaoxiao had memorized all that information. So although this was her first time meeting Wang Yue in person, she knew quite a lot about him.

As far as she knew, Wang Yue was very low-key in his behavior.

This was partly due to the restrictions imposed by the three major families, but even during the three days each month when he was allowed to move around freely, there was no record of him causing any trouble.

His only ”misdeed” was that he had beaten Zhang Qingtian in public more than ten days ago, but there was a reason for that.

In contrast to Wang Yue, the people who confronted him, including the short man who had his leg broken and was lying there, had a terrible reputation. Relying on the power of their families, they had committed many acts of bullying and aggression.

Therefore, Xin Xiaoxiao naturally favored Wang Yue in her heart.

But to her surprise, Wang Yue was so arrogant that this diminished her impression of him. She asked sternly, ”What is your reason for doing this?”

”That person insulted my cousin, and in very vulgar terms,” Su Jiaojiao replied quickly. ”It would be fine if he had just insulted my cousin; we wouldnʼt bother to take it seriously. But he also insulted my second aunt… How could my cousin not be angry!”

Xin Xiaoxiao frowned again, but this time not because of Wang Yue, but because of the short man lying on the ground.

As someone who was well-versed in the information about the three major families of Jinling, she knew that Su Jiaojiaoʼs second aunt was Wang Yueʼs biological mother.

Although Xin Xiaoxiao had no parents since childhood, her master had adopted her and taught her with all his heart. In her heart, her master was like a mother to her, and the word ”mother” held great significance for her.

So after hearing what Su Jiaojiao said, and seeing Su Jinʼer, Su Xiuʼer, and Chu Mo nod in agreement, and since the other party didnʼt deny it either, even she felt that the short man deserved to be punished.

However, as a police officer, her duty was not to incite trouble but to maintain order. Therefore, she said seriously, ”I can ignore what happened. You can resolve this issue on your own, but do not fight again, or I will have to take action according to the law.”

Wang Yue didnʼt care about how Xin Xiaoxiao handled the situation; after all, the only person he really wanted to beat was that short man.

The other people didnʼt dare to actually fight against Wang Yue either. So they took the opportunity to help the short man up and took him away for treatment.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

The incident was thus resolved, when suddenly, applause rang out.

Zhang Shao from Tianhai clapped his hands and said with a smile, ”Wonderful, truly wonderful! Itʼs been a long time since Iʼve seen such an exciting scene.”

Zhang Qingtian quickly smiled and said, ”Jinling certainly canʼt compare to Tianhai. We are just simple country folks here, lacking in manners. We must have disappointed Mr. Zhang.”

”No, no, at all. It was very interesting,” Zhang Lingfeng said with a laugh. ”But the show was too short; I wasnʼt satisfied. Is there anyone else here who is good at fighting? How about you have a match with Young Master Wang?”

The young men surrounding them looked at each other. Some of them were confident that they could defeat Wang Yue, but who in their right mind would provoke him without a reason?

After all, Wang Yue was the only treasure of the three major families of Jinling.

If someone hurt him, even if the situation of the three families was in peril at that time, it would still be enough to destroy them, as well as the families behind them, before the people from the Zhang family of Tianhai arrived in large numbers.

Seeing that no one responded, Zhang Lingfengʼs expression darkened. He looked at Wang Yue and said, ”It seems that Young Master Wang really has a lot of influence in Jinling. Since they dare to challenge you, why donʼt you choose your opponent?”

His words sounded like a suggestion, but his tone was unambiguous. In his eyes, the sons of these families in Jinling were nothing but fools, suitable only for him to play with like monkeys.

However, Wang Yue didnʼt even look at him. Instead, he turned to the four women and said, ”Letʼs go. Thereʼs nothing interesting here.”

The four women nodded and followed Wang Yue out.

”Stop!” Zhang Lingfeng shouted in anger and frustration. He wanted to watch the ”show,” but the ”monkeys” responsible for performing it not only refused to cooperate but also ignored him completely.

How could he tolerate this after coming to Jinling and feeling so proud thanks to the flattery of people like Zhang Qingtian?

But Wang Yue and the others seemed not to hear him at all and continued walking out unhurriedly.

If Wang Yue and the others were allowed to leave this hall, Zhang Lingfeng would lose all his face today.

But on the other hand, he didnʼt dare to take action against Wang Yue – although the Tianhai Zhang family considered themselves superior to the three major families of Jinling, Zhang Lingfeng had arrived early, and aside from two lackeys, he only had two bodyguards at the Tianyuan realm.

If a conflict broke out with the three major families right away and they resorted to extreme measures, they would be utterly unable to withstand them.

However, while Wang Yue and the three Su sisters couldnʼt be manipulated, there was still someone who could be influenced.

Zhang Lingfeng took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and turned to Zhang Qingtian, saying, ”Zhang Qingtian, I hear you have a fiancée. Where is she?”

Zhang Qingtian found it an utter disgrace that his fiancée was associated with Wang Yue, so he had always avoided talking about her. Yet now, the subject was brought up in public.

If anyone else had said such a thing, Zhang Qingtian would have made them pay dearly. But since it was Zhang Lingfeng speaking, he dared not confront him. Instead, he forced a smile and replied, ”Itʼs Chu Mo.”

Then he called out to Chu Mo, ”Mo Mo, come over and say hello to Young Master Zhang.”

Chu Mo ignored him completely.

Zhang Lingfeng continued, ”Just saying hello isnʼt enough. Zhang Qingtian, youʼre really lucky to have such a beautiful woman. Sheʼs not common even in Tianhai, yet sheʼs my fiancée. Wouldnʼt you mind letting her accompany me for the night?”

Zhang Qingtian was furious. He didnʼt really have deep feelings for Chu Mo; he was simply attracted to her beauty. But she was still his fiancée, and this matter was related to his dignity.

Even Wang Yue had only been with Chu Mo and had never insulted Zhang Qingtian like this. But Zhang Lingfeng openly threatened to sleep with his fiancée in public. Any man with a shred of pride would be enraged by such a thing.

However, despite his anger, Zhang Qingtian didnʼt dare offend Zhang Lingfeng. With a forced smile, he said, ”It would be an honor for her.”

Zhang Qingtian wasnʼt the only one who was angry. Chu Kuo was already furious after hearing Zhang Lingfengʼs words, and seeing Zhang Qingtianʼs reaction made him shiver with disgust: marrying his daughter to such a scoundrel would ruin her life.

There was also Xin Xiaoxiao. Duty-bound and with a strong sense of justice, she couldnʼt tolerate this behavior. She immediately tried to rush forward to rebuke Zhang Lingfeng, but before she could move, one of his subordinates struck her in the back of the neck, knocking her out.

Zhang Lingfeng paid no attention to their reactions. He just watched as Wang Yue turned around and slowly walked towards him.

By saying such things, he was not only truly covetous of the four beautiful women surrounding Wang Yue, but he was also trying to provoke him. He couldnʼt bring himself to act directly against Wang Yue, but provoking him into a fit of rage was a viable option.
