Watching Meng Zeyang walk towards Young Master Qu, Liu Zixuan casually took out a cigarette, lit it, and walked back to Meng Yu's side.
Meng Yu looked around as if searching for something.
"What's the matter?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"I don't see my parents!" Meng Yu said anxiously, frowning. "I really don't know what they're up to!"
"Don't worry, Meng Zeyang will respectfully bring your parents out soon! And he'll be begging for your forgiveness too!"
Meng Yu, looking incredulous, smiled and said, "Stop trying to comfort me. This is the Meng Family's manor. How could such a thing happen here?"
"If I say it can, then it definitely can!"
Liu Zixuan gave a mysterious smile and said nothing more.
At this time, Meng Zeyang had already offered incense with Young Master Qu and then said, "Young Master Qu, there's about twenty minutes before the funeral. Since you're here, let me introduce Meng Yu to you?"
"Is she the celebrity you mentioned before?" Young Master Qu asked, with a conceited expression and quite satisfaction.
After all, the Qu family had significant influence over the Meng family right now, and he had come to represent the Qu family fully, so naturally, he wanted to be more high-profile.
"That's right." Meng Zeyang smiled.
Young Master Qu smirked, "That's perfect. I've seen all kinds of beauties over the years, but I've never really seen a celebrity!"
"I'm sure you'll be satisfied. If you fancy her, we can have a wedding in a couple of days!"
Hearing this, Young Master Qu paused, "Is it really okay to have a celebration right after your son's death?"
Meng Zeyang's mouth twitched a few times, and he pretended not to care, "People in the Jianghu don't bother with such formalities. Besides, it's to strengthen our two families' cooperation, like bringing good fortune!"
"If you all don't mind, then why should I!" Young Master Qu thought that marrying a celebrity adored by thousands would be even more impressive!
But just as he finished speaking, a very familiar voice to Young Master Qu suddenly appeared.
"You all might not mind, but I care a lot!"
Liu Zixuan, holding Meng Yu's hand, slowly walked over.
Initially, Meng Yu was unwilling to come over, as she detested both Meng Zeyang and this Young Master Qu she'd never met, hoping never to see them!
However, before she could refuse, Liu Zixuan had already brought her over, not giving her a chance to react.
She thought that when Liu Zixuan said this, it would make Young Master Qu fly into a rage, but what happened next surprised Meng Yu.
Seeing Liu Zixuan walking over, Meng Zeyang quickly stepped forward. After all, this was an opportunity to show off in front of Young Master Qu; how could he miss it!
Immediately, he shouted in an overbearing manner, "Who do you think you are, Liu Zixuan? Get lost quickly! Make Young Master Qu angry, and you'll suffer!"
Liu Zixuan squinted his eyes, smirked, and said, "Then let me suffer! I'm itching for someone to give me a beating!"
"You're looking for death! Someone, tie Liu Zixuan up for me!" Meng Zeyang shouted.
Who knew, before he could flaunt, he was suddenly hit hard on the head.
Young Master Qu slapped Meng Zeyang on the head, "You asking to suffer too?"
"I... what did I do?" Meng Zeyang looked bewildered.
Young Master Qu slapped him again, completely disregarding Meng Zeyang's position as the patriarch.
In front of so many people, Meng Zeyang couldn't hold back his anger, "Young Master Qu, you're going too far!"
"Too far, my ass! You're the one who's going too far!"
Meng Zeyang really thought that being loud could intimidate Young Master Qu, but Qu didn't appreciate it and retorted.
Before he could speak, Young Master Qu immediately said, "I think your Meng family is deliberately trying to ruin our Qu family, and you want me to marry your family's big star. Look carefully, she already has a boyfriend!"
"He's not Meng Yu's boyfriend!"
Meng Zeyang instinctively explained.
Young Master Qu stomped his foot in anger, "Does that fucking matter? What matters is the person next to the big star, can you afford to offend him?"
"I... he... this..." Meng Zeyang was completely at a loss, wondering what was wrong with Liu Zixuan. Given his strength in Ghost Wood City, he was nothing in the Celestial Capital. So why was Young Master Qu acting so fearful?
Just when he was already confused, an unimaginable scene unfolded.
The arrogant look on Young Master Qu's face disappeared completely and was replaced by a fear-stricken flattery. He walked up to Liu Zixuan and respectfully said, "Mr. Liu, I really didn't know that the big star they mentioned is your woman. If I'd known beforehand, I wouldn't have come even if they beat me to death!"
"Young Master Qu, what are you afraid of him for? He's just a nobody from Ghost Wood City!" Lv Liqin also came over, glancing at Liu Zixuan as she spoke.
"A nobody?"
Young Master Qu was stunned, "If he's a nobody, then our Qu family is ants, and your Meng family wouldn't even count as dregs!"
"Do you know who Mr. Liu is? He is..."
"Keep it low-key." Liu Zixuan patted Young Master Qu's shoulder, "When you flatter, do it lightly, no need to be so high-profile."
"Yes, yes, yes." Young Master Qu, without a hint of embarrassment, flattered again, "In my lifetime, I admire people like you the most, who are so impressive yet unpretentious."
Liu Zixuan took a few puffs of his cigarette, realizing that yesterday's incident had indeed frightened Young Master Qu, but the trip to Yiquan yesterday was worthwhile.
Otherwise, he would have to resort to violence today, saving Liu Zixuan a lot of effort.
"Mr. Liu, I've got a general understanding of the situation. If you trust me, should I handle it for you?"
The Qu family had come from afar, aiming to establish a foothold in the Celestial Capital. While they had the strength, they lacked a foundation. They originally intended to annex the Meng family to establish a base.
But now, he felt that clinging to Liu Zixuan was the wisest choice.
After all, Liu Zixuan was a distinguished guest revered by the Yiquan Sisters!
At this moment, it was naturally time to show some sincerity.
Liu Zixuan folded his arms, "Let's see if you can handle this matter smoothly!"
"Watch me!"
Young Master Qu turned around, assumed a teaching posture, and pointed at the bewildered Meng Zeyang, saying, "Meng Zeyang, if you still want your Meng family to exist in the Celestial Capital, then show a hundred percent sincerity in apologizing to Mr. Liu and immediately release the big star's parents."
"Young Master Qu... what... what's really going on here?"
Meng Zeyang was utterly puzzled, but due to his attitude towards Liu Zixuan, he dared not be too arrogant.
"What's going on?" Young Master Qu sneered, "Mr. Liu doesn't like high-profile behavior, so I won't say much. But I tell you, if you don't do as I just said, our Qu family will officially break off cooperation with you and formally declare war on the Meng family!"
