Wu Zhongcai had only personally issued the order that morning, instructing all hotels, restaurants, and venues of the Wu Corporation to treat Xu Hao with the utmost standards of service.

In other words, they were to regard him with even more cautiousness than they would Wu Zhongcai's own father!

And now, the person Qi Jun had offended was actually Xu Hao?

Sun Wei couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead and said coldly to Qi Jun, "Qi Jun, don't cling to me like this, we're not that close!"

Huh?

Damn!

Qi Jun was stunned, thinking he had heard wrongly! Sun Wei said they weren't that close?

Just a few days ago when they were drinking together, Sun Wei was all over him, showing utmost deference, and now he was pretending not to know him?

Before Qi Jun could open his mouth, he suddenly saw Wu Yu, with his hands in his pockets, sauntering over from behind the security crowd. Qi Jun's mouth twitched, and he immediately turned and walked towards Wu Yu, "Young Master Wu, so you were here... I've finally found someone in charge. Please, give me some justice…"

Wu Yu did indeed associate with Qi Jun quite a lot, and he had a fairly good impression of him, "Heh, Young Master Qi, I didn't expect you to be bullied like this in Jing'an City!"

With his face a mess, and swollen from bruises, Qi Jun indeed looked pitiable.

"Come, tell me, who dared to beat up my Young Master Qi? Creating trouble in the Imperial City Hotel, have they eaten the hearts of bears and leopards?" While Wu Yu spoke, Manager Sun kept giving him meaningful glances.

Wu Yu's brows furrowed, puzzled. What was this Sun Wei trying to pull?

Because two security guards were blocking the way, Wu Yu couldn't see Xu Hao. As Wu Yu was reprimanding, he took a couple of steps forward, but when he saw Xu Hao smiling at him, Wu Yu's legs trembled, and he nearly went weak at the knees.

"Young Master Wu, I was the one who beat Qi Jun. Do you have a problem with that?" Xu Hao said, smiling indifferently, but Wu Yu was sweating profusely, repeatedly wiping the sweat from his forehead, "No, no, absolutely no problem! Young Master Xu, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you!"

As he spoke, Wu Yu glared at Sun Wei, that damned fool—why didn't he make it clear that it was Xu Hao here?

This very morning, at the Di Hao Hotel, Wu Zhongcai knelt before Xu Hao. Afterwards, he was repeatedly warned that the family business had lost 8 billion within an hour under Xu Hao's influence, and Liu Tianxiong even personally threatened Wu Zhongcai, stating that if Xu Hao was offended, he would directly destroy the Wu Corporation.

With such immense power behind Xu Hao, no matter how insolent Wu Yu was, he wouldn't dare to provoke Xu Hao carelessly.

Xu Hao snorted coldly, "Hmph, it's good that you have no objections!"

Qi Jun, standing next to Wu Yu, was dumbfounded at this point, "Young Master Wu... you know Xu Hao? Why are you being so polite to him, even calling him Young Master Xu? That idiot is just a son-in-law who married into the Liu Family, a mere security guard, and you're really giving him face..."

As Qi Jun continued to grumble, Wu Yu swung back a slap across Qi Jun's face, "You bastard, how dare you call Young Master Xu an idiot? Guards, beat him up and throw him out!"

Wu Yu's bodyguards, upon receiving the order, rushed forward and pummeled Qi Jun, leaving him howling in agony.

"Young Master Wu... don't make a mistake, it's me, Qi Jun! What's going on? Ouch, stop, not the face!"

Watching Qi Jun howling, Wu Yu snorted coldly. A security guard? What a joke, have you ever seen a security guard who can call upon the power of Liu Tianxiong, or command a fleet of Ferraris?

Originally, Wu Yu had suspected that Xu Hao's car fleet was rented! But then around noon, word came from Jing'an City's car dealerships that a mysterious tycoon had sold eleven Ferraris and then repurchased the limited edition Aston Martin One-77.

And right then, there was one parked downstairs at the hotel.

When everything was pieced together, that Aston Martin could only belong to Xu Hao.

Xu Hao wasn't just showing off, he was genuinely awesome!

Just as Qi Jun was about to be dragged out, the manager of the lobby whispered to Wu Yu, "Young Master Wu, we can't throw out Qi Jun just yet, he hasn't settled his bill! He said he would split today's expenses half and half with Young Master Xu."

"Oh, is that so? Then drag him over to settle the bill! As for Young Master Xu's share, it's on the house!"

As Qi Jun was being dragged away by a few security guards, he wailed and shouted angrily, "This isn't fair, it's not fair... Xu Hao, you wait for me!"

This was supposed to be a perfect night. After getting Qin Yao into the room, endless wonderful things would have happened. But it was all ruined by Xu Hao, not only was he beaten up by Xu Hao, but he was also beaten up by Wu Yu's men.

Once Qi Jun had left, Wu Yu respectfully said to Xu Hao, "Young Master Xu, do you find the way this was handled satisfactory?"

"Hmph! You know your place. Take your men and get lost, don't disturb our meal!" Xu Hao rebuked Wu Yu.

"Yes!" Wu Yu, as if pardoned, commanded his subordinates and in the blink of an eye, they had vanished without a trace, "Leave, leave, all of you leave! Send the word down, the earlier bills are for that bastard Qi Jun to settle. Bring out several more good dishes, and it's all free!"

"Yes!"

...

What was supposed to be a farce left all the classmates thinking Xu Hao would take a beating and suffer a big loss tonight. But to their surprise, Wu Yu, the son of Wu Zhongcai, the man behind Imperial City Hotel, saw Xu Hao and acted like a mouse seeing a cat.

The issue was settled just like that, with no fuss.

Qi Jun was thrown out, and Gao Fei, Cui Ergou, along with Qi Jun's cronies were all sent packing. Zhang Meng and Jia Sisi were still there, and upon seeing the powerful backing Xu Hao had, the way the two women looked at him changed.

Both women, one to his left and one to his right, sat close to Xu Hao, leaning in tightly, "Brother Hao, you were truly mighty just now, so suave in action!"

"Yeah! Brother Hao, you actually know Young Master Wu. Introduce us to some young masters sometime, will you?"

Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng, both social butterflies, indeed had their charms. They leaned on Xu Hao, continuously rubbing up against him.

Xu Hao was unapologetic, making the most of the situation, unabashedly taking advantage of Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng. Even when his actions became somewhat over the top, Zhang Meng and Jia Sisi didn't seem to object.

Zhao Feng looked at Xu Hao deeply before hesitating for a long time, then said, "Brother Hao, you're quite something, fooling us so badly!"

Xu Hao took his hands from in front of Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng and smiled at Zhao Feng, "Zhao Feng, I didn't fool you! Actually, my story is quite complicated. To put it simply, my second uncle left a substantial inheritance overseas, and it was left to me... so... "

Xu Hao didn't go into details, but the message was clear enough.

How big was this inheritance? A few hundred million, or perhaps a few billion, or even tens of billions? It must be at least more substantial than Wu Corporation, right? Otherwise, why would Wu Yu ever concede?

Hearing this made Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng's eyes sparkle. Jia Sisi let her shoulder strap slip down her arm, and with a tone so tender it was almost melting, she cooed at Xu Hao, "Oh, Brother Hao... aren't you going home tonight? Mengmeng and I can take you to a fun place, let's all party together?"

Shameless!

The other men in the private room inwardly despised Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng for their actions. These two social butterflies, who had just been fawning over Qi Jun, now planned to join forces to ingratiate themselves with Xu Hao?

A smile formed at the corner of Xu Hao's mouth, but before he could respond to Jia Sisi and Zhang Meng, he suddenly received a text message. It was from Wang Zhong, "Young Master, something has happened with Miss Qin Yao..."
