CHAPTER 815: CHAPTER 819: THE SLACKER’S RED ENVELOPE GROUP (26)

At the banquet, Xue Shichang saw the Su Family’s daughter.

In the past life, because of his Wanwan, he had some impressions of her, but they were all negative.

Xue Shichang believed that Xu and Qin families had the same attitude as he did.

Xue Shichang gave a cold snort. This daughter was lucky but also unlucky.

To receive attention from these children of the Emperor is a once-in-a-lifetime fortune, but unfortunately, they all had a bad impression of her.

In fact, to be precise, the Su Family’s daughter had not offended them. She was respectful enough to them. But somehow, that woman just happened to offend their mutual darling.

Whenever he thought of Yu Wan, Xue Shichang couldn’t resist the itch and wanted to finish things quickly here and go to her.

This time, he must meet Wanwan before everyone else and completely occupy her heart.

After recalling everything, owing to some inherent impressions, even though the situation in this life was completely different from the past, Xue Shichang did not pay too much attention to the Su Family and its daughter. He even held some disdain.

Even though he knew they needed help now, knowing is one thing; truly putting in effort to please the other party was something Xue Shichang could not do.

How to take it seriously?

Something that was trampled underfoot and never regarded by you, how could you suddenly give it respect?

Instead, when Xu Minghua and Qin Shenghe appeared within his sight, his mind instantly heightened in vigilance and seriousness.

Rivals face a narrow path....

They had openly and covertly competed for many years. Just one look, and Xue Shichang knew those two in front of him were the same old acquaintances.

Not ones from this life, but the two who fought with him for a lifetime in the past.

Like him, they had also returned to the past.

In the past life, the outcome for these two was not much better than his.

Under that man’s suppression, both the Xu Family and Qin Family couldn’t get an advantage.

The three exchanged glances, sparks flew in the air, and in silent agreement, they walked to a secluded little balcony.

Xue Shichang, with a cold face, spoke first, "This life, Wanwan is mine. None of you should think about competing."

Xu Minghua flicked his hair and replied nonchalantly, "There’s no need to speak so early. Do you think I’m just a backdrop?"

"Wanwan has always concerned herself the most with me. With me here, do you think you still have a chance?"

Qin Shenghe was the most composed, "Let’s not forget Liu Rong, that man."

With Qin Shenghe’s words, Xue Shichang and Xu Minghua immediately fell silent.

Xue Shichang’s eyes glimmered with a hint of gloom as he sinisterly said in a low voice, "Then we should just get rid of him first."

He lifted his head, ambition shining in his eyes, urging the other two, "If we three join forces, I refuse to believe we can’t take him down."

Xu Minghua’s face showed eagerness, and Qin Shenghe was also quite tempted, but he was more objective, saying, "Never mind Liu Rong’s mystery, in the past life I investigated him, but his origins are blank, as if he emerged from thin air. I don’t believe you haven’t investigated him."

As Qin Shenghe brought this up, Xue Shichang and Xu Minghua’s faces turned dark, such experiences were indeed black marks in their history.

Qin Shenghe glanced at the other two, swirling the drink in his glass, and continued, "Besides, don’t forget that many things are different in this life compared to the last. Didn’t your family elders repeatedly instruct you to be sure to please the Su Family and its lady when you went out?"

Xu Minghua irritably scratched his head, "Does even the Su Family deserve my flattery?"

They spoke carefree, but when really facing Su Li, not to mention wanting to please her, there wasn’t even a chance to get close.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted, and many people looked eagerly in one direction. The three, hiding on the small balcony, lost interest in conversation and moved forward.

The crowd parted like the Red Sea, and a woman, adorned with stars and moon, walked in upon the path of light.

Xue Shichang stared in a daze. The woman had the exact facial features as the one in his memories, but her aura was completely different.

Her cold, proud gaze casually swept over them and moved away without pause.

Never having been ignored like this, Xue Shichang felt complex emotions. Upon regaining his senses, he felt balanced as he glanced sideways.

Xu Minghua and Qin Shenghe displayed reactions similar to his.

Qin Shenghe asserted, "I am sure all the changes center around this woman."

Xue Shichang and Xu Minghua were smart. Before seeing her, they had deduced most of the truth from the surrounding situation. Seeing the True Man dispelled the remaining uncertainties.

Xue Shichang fixed his gaze on the woman’s departing figure, emitting a cold, snakelike gleam, and hissed, "Maybe she’s like us and returned to the past."

Xu Minghua licked his crimson lips with excitement, "Then we will deal with her again."

Their hardened gazes lingered brazenly on her back, not anticipating she would suddenly turn back and offer them an arrogant smile.

This infuriated them.

Xue Shichang’s plans were good, but they seemed to overlook their current awkward situation.

Before they could approach her, they were jostled stumbling by the crowd.

Just as Xue Shichang wanted to flare up, the other party was even more aggressive, "Hey, I wondered who it was, turns out it’s you guys... Are the young masters here to cozy up to the Su Family too?"

Xu Minghua tightly clenched his fists, teeth gritting in anger, "What are you saying? Are you looking for death?"

The person showed no fear, laughing instead, "Now you should worry about if you’re heading to your own deaths, otherwise why would you rush to compete with us for opportunities."

"Remember, you used to disdain associating with us."

This person wanted to say more, but his companion tugged him anxiously, "Stop wasting time with them, Lady Su just showed up and is about to leave."

Upon hearing this, he let go of mocking Xue Shichang and others, quickly running toward Lady Su.

As he ran, he took the opportunity to viciously shoulder bump Qin Shenghe.

When had these high-and-mighty young masters ever suffered such losses? Each one was as cold as the underworld, clouded in gloom.

"Why are you standing around here?" a shout came, followed by a heavy hit on Xue Shichang’s head.

Mr. Xue, furious, lamented his son’s lack of drive, "Did you forget everything I told you?"

He finished, lowering his shoulders, seemingly deeply disappointed, "Tomorrow, you don’t need to go back to the company anymore. Hand over all your tasks to your second brother."

Xue Shichang laughed angrily, "Are you suggesting you want to support that bastard to compete with me?"

Mr. Xue remained indifferent, "Who told you to lack ambition. Your second brother has connected with a manager from the Su Family, more useful than you."

Not only with Xue Shichang, but Xu Minghua and Qin Shenghe also each got a scolding from their elders.

Let alone the bold declarations they made earlier, even keeping their current status would be difficult.

Fickle fate, those who commanded the winds and rains in the past life, this life... Tsk, tsk, better not say more.
