He Ate a Divine Dragon-Chapter 484 - 482 Uninvited Guests
Su Daonong was in a particularly good mood today, and for good reason: Su Qingning's bar had caught fire. That huge, luxuriously decorated bar was now nothing but a pile of ashes, completely incinerated by a fierce blaze.
Of course, Su Daonong wasn't just happy because the bar had burned down. More importantly, this meant that from now on, she would never have the chance to take back the Su Corporation. Even if Su Qingning had won the competition against his son, Su Daonong never would have returned the Su Corporation to her anyway. Still, he had been worried about gossip. After all, many people in Jinling City knew about their wager.
That was why he'd had his nephew burn down Su Qingning's bar. Although it had cost him several hundred thousand to convince his nephew to do the deed, Su Daonong felt it was money well spent. Absolutely worth it.
Su Daonong wasn't the only one who was happy. Su Qingkun and Su Qingfeng were both ecstatic. For them, seeing Su Qingning suffer was a source of great joy.
"Dad, shouldn't we go out for a big celebratory dinner tonight?" Su Qingkun suggested excitedly.
"Of course!" Su Daonong said with a broad smile.
Seeing her father in such a good mood, Su Qingfeng decided to strike while the iron was hot. "Dad, buy me a house! I want to move out with my husband!"
"What? Husband? Su Qingfeng, have you lost your mind? The man is a filthy beggar, and an idiot to boot! You're actually calling that kind of person your husband?" Su Daonong roared.
"Dad, you don't understand. Even though he's an idiot and a beggar, he's actually been very good to me. And most importantly..."
Su Qingfeng trailed off, but her cheeks had already turned beet red, and she wore a bashful expression.
Seeing his daughter's reaction, Su Daonong instantly understood. It seemed that beggar had already conquered his daughter in certain respects. The thought made Su Daonong's hatred for Lin Xiao deepen. If it weren't for that wretched beggar, why would my daughter ever marry an idiotic one?
While cursing Lin Xiao, Su Daonong's resentment for Shao Mei'er flared up as well. Whenever he recalled how that harlot had framed him and his son for trying to assault her, Su Daonong would grind his teeth in hatred. If they hadn't managed to prove their innocence, he and his son would probably be eating prison food by now.
Just as he was plotting how to deal with the stinking beggar and Shao Mei'er, someone rushed in to report that Xiao Shixiong had arrived.
Su Daonong was startled. Xiao Shixiong was the King of the Southern Town. What is he doing here?
Su Daonong rushed out of the villa without even stopping to put on his shoes.
The moment he reached the entrance, Su Daonong was stunned by the sight before him. He saw Xiao Shixiong, and behind him, an intimidating sea of men. Su Daonong had never witnessed such an imposing spectacle before. He was frozen with fear.
"Lord... Lord Xiao, I was unaware of your esteemed visit. Please forgive my poor hospitality!"
Xiao Shixiong patted Su Daonong's shoulder with a smile. "It's nothing. Just came to pay a visit. What, am I not welcome?"
"You're welcome, of course, you're welcome!" Su Daonong said, flustered with excitement. I was just wracking my brain for a way to curry favor with him, and now he's visiting on his own initiative? No wonder that fortune teller at the start of the year said I'd meet a benefactor. That blind man's prediction was spot on!
Xiao Shixiong just smiled and strode into the Su Family's villa. His arrival instantly brought honor to the humble Su Family. Su Daonong immediately had a servant bring out his finest tea and personally ushered Xiao Shixiong to the seat of honor.
This wasn't Xiao Shixiong's first time at Su Daonong's home, but today, he surveyed the villa with a faint, unreadable smile.
Su Daonong noticed and said, "Lord Xiao, my home is a bit simple. I hope you don't mind!"
"Not at all," Xiao Shixiong replied, his smiling gaze shifting to Su Qingfeng. "Su Qingfeng, where is your husband?"
"Answering Lord Xiao, he's asleep!" Su Qingfeng replied quickly.
"Mm, and are you satisfied with him?"
Su Qingfeng smiled. "Satisfied! One hundred percent satisfied!"
Xiao Shixiong was taken aback. Su Qingfeng's words don't sound forced at all. Could she really be satisfied with that beggar? But how is that possible? She's always been an arrogant woman with her nose in the air. How could she be satisfied with a beggar? Then, he noticed the trace of coy charm in her eyes as she spoke, and he instantly understood.
He suddenly felt the urge to laugh. Who would believe it? The prestigious young lady of the Su Family, conquered by an idiot. This family is truly one of a kind. If Lin Xiao hadn't instructed me to wait for him, I'd deal with this family of degenerates right now. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"Old Su, how is the Su Corporation doing these days?"
"It's... it's doing fine!" Su Daonong replied quickly.
"And what exactly does 'doing fine' mean?"
"It... it means everything is operating normally!"
"Oh? In that case, you're quite capable. It's been three years, and the company still hasn't gone bankrupt!" Xiao Shixiong said with a chuckle.
Su Daonong couldn't tell if Xiao Shixiong was mocking him or genuinely praising him. "It's... it's all thanks to your good fortune, Lord Xiao!"
Xiao Shixiong waved his hand with a smile. "This is all your own achievement. What does it have to do with me!"
Just then, the servant brought the tea. Xiao Shixiong began to sip it with a smile.
Su Daonong, however, was growing more and more anxious. He couldn't explain why, but a strange sense of panic was creeping into his heart. Perhaps it was because Xiao Shixiong had been beating around the bush ever since he arrived, putting him on edge.
With that thought, Su Daonong steeled himself and asked cautiously, "Lord Xiao, forgive my boldness, but may I ask if you are here on some particular business today?"
"Mm, yes, there is something," Xiao Shixiong said with a smile. "But there's no hurry. Let me drink my tea first. I must say, I'm quite thirsty!"
"Of course, of course! Please, drink your tea!"
Xiao Shixiong nodded and did just that, focusing entirely on his tea. In fact, he finished two entire pots.
This only made Su Daonong's heart pound faster. He had the distinct feeling that something terrible was about to happen, but he had no idea what it could be.
He started to run through the possibilities. It can't be about Su Qingning. I've already arranged everything on that front. My nephew will take full responsibility for today's incident. Even if the Six Fan Gate investigates, they'll never trace it back to me.
Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Shixiong remarked coolly, "I heard Su Qingning's bar caught fire. A single blaze burned it to the ground!"
Su Daonong was about to respond when Su Qingfeng sneered, "She deserved it! A promiscuous woman like her should have been dealt with long ago!"
Su Daonong shot his daughter a harsh glare. Why did she have to open her big mouth?
Xiao Shixiong chuckled. "Su Qingfeng, you hate Su Qingning that much?"
Just as Su Qingfeng was about to speak, Su Daonong cut in, "Not at all, not at all! We're all family, there's no hatred between us!"
Xiao Shixiong stared at him for a few long moments, his gaze making Su Daonong's panic spike.
Just then, Xiao Shixiong suddenly broke into a smile. "Alright, enough chit-chat. The star of the show has arrived. Let the games begin!"
Su Daonong froze. He followed Xiao Shixiong's gaze and saw Lin Xiao walking in, his face as dark as a thundercloud.
