After descending the mountain, the aloof female CEO became attached to me.

Hearing Chu Tian's confident answer, Gao Shengqiang stood there stunned, his eyes filled with admiration and respect.

It seems that the young master's strength has reached a level beyond my comprehension.

No wonder he's the old immortal's disciple.

Following the young master is truly a blessing I, Gao Shengqiang, have accumulated over eight lifetimes.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"If you receive any news about the mysterious person, remember to notify me immediately."

Having obtained everything he wanted to know, Chu Tian had no desire to stay any longer.

I gave them a heads-up and then prepared to leave.

"Young Master, please wait..."

At this moment, Gao Shengqiang suddenly called out to him.

"Anything else?"

"Young Master, this is your first time coming down the mountain, and I have nothing to say about it."

"This VIP card from Yihonglou is a gift for you. I hope you will accept it, young master."

Gao Shengqiang handed over a gold card with a fawning expression.

Didn't Song Hongyan tell you what I said?

Chu Tian did not accept the Supreme Card and questioned him coldly.

Gao Shengqiang broke out in a cold sweat instantly and hurriedly explained, "Young Master, you've misunderstood. I wasn't trying to flatter you."

"Instead, this card symbolizes your status as a VIP at Yihonglou. With this card, you can freely enter and leave Yihonglou in the future."

"Of course, I know that with your strength, young master, no one can stop you."

"But it's never good to always resort to violence, and it would be beneath your dignity."

Chu Tian thought it made sense, since Yihonglou was an intelligence organization and he would inevitably have to visit it often in the future.

Without further hesitation, he accepted the Supreme Card.

I appreciate your kindness. Just do your job well from now on, and I won't treat you unfairly.

He left a message and turned to leave.

He didn't touch the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of precious dishes on the table, nor did he even glance at them.

"Respectfully seeing off the young master."

……

Chu Tian left the VIP box, intending to go straight home.

Unexpectedly, just as I reached the corner on the second floor, my gaze was suddenly drawn to a beautiful figure in the opposite room.

"Yu Rou? What's she doing here?"

In the box.

The room was full of people, all of whom were Tang Yurou's high school classmates.

Seated in the main seat was a young man dressed in a suit and tie, with an arrogant expression.

It was none other than Wang Shaojie, the eldest son of the Wang family of Guicheng.

"Young Master Wang, I never expected that after all these years, you would still remember us."

"That's why Wang Shao is so loyal! No matter how rich he gets, he never forgets his old classmates."

"Come, Young Master Wang, let me toast you."

"If you don't have a place to stay tonight, you can come to my place! I have an electric chair."

Hearing the praise from his classmates, Wang Shaojie was very pleased and waved his hand dismissively.

"Spend whatever you want tonight, it's all on me."

"Young Master Wang is mighty!"

"Young Master Wang is so domineering."

The students immediately erupted in excitement, dancing with joy.

Several female classmates who considered themselves attractive deliberately clung to Wang Shaojie during the toasting ceremony.

Tang Yurou looked disgusted. This was Wang Shaojie, a womanizer.

Luckily, I didn't marry him, otherwise I don't know how much suffering I would have endured.

Wang Shaojie looked at Tang Yurou, who had remained silent throughout, and asked with a playful tone, "Yurou, why aren't you drinking?"

"Young Master Wang, I..."

Tang Yurou opened her mouth to speak, but before she could finish, a series of mocking voices came from all around.

"Tang Yurou, it's an honor for us that Young Master Wang is treating us to dinner and drinks. Everyone has had a drink, so why are you pretending to be so high and mighty?"

"Exactly, you'd think you were some kind of noble person! But you still came to the banquet today, didn't you?"

"You're here and you're already drinking. Don't spoil Young Master Wang's mood. You're really asking for it."

Tang Yurou laughed off the insults from her classmates, not taking them to heart at all.

It's an insult to yourself to waste even a second arguing with these snobbish classmates.

"Young Master Wang, I'm here today to discuss cooperation with you."

“Your cooperation with the Tang family cannot be broken. If it really comes to that, I am willing to give you 20% of the profits as a kickback.”

"I just hope that Young Master Wang can change his mind."

Upon hearing this, Wang Shaojie toyed with his wine glass with a mocking expression.

"Tang Yurou, if you want our two families to continue cooperating, it's actually very simple."

"As long as you divorce that country bumpkin Chu Tian, ​​I will immediately resume cooperation with the Tang family."

"Otherwise, there's no point in discussing it."

Tang Yurou stood up excitedly, "Young Master Wang, this matter has nothing to do with Chu Tian."

"Moreover, by cooperating with our Tang family, the interests of your Wang family are guaranteed to the greatest extent."

"Therefore, I hope you will think this through carefully, Mr. Wang, and not act impulsively."

"Acting on impulse?" Wang Shaojie chuckled and said disdainfully, "Tang Yurou, you don't really see the Tang family as a cash cow, do you?"

"It's just a few tens of millions in profit. Once it's gone, it's gone. I don't care about that stinking money."

"But you, compared to those mere tens of millions, are more likely to pique my interest."

"So, to reiterate, marry me, and our collaboration will continue."

"Otherwise, if Chu Tian dies, the Tang family will perish."

The last sentence was powerful and resounding, exuding domineering confidence, which filled the surrounding students with admiration and made them cheer.

This is Wang Shaojie.

The eldest son of the Wang family in Guicheng.

A single word can determine the life or death of another.

Tang Yurou's face turned ashen with anger. She said in a deep voice, "Wang Shaojie, are you really going to be so ruthless? Are you going to drive my Tang family to the brink of ruin just because of my mother's verbal marriage agreement?"

She has always been uncontrollable, and it is even more impossible for her to sacrifice herself for the benefit of the family.

Wang Shaojie smiled contemptuously, "Tang Yurou, destroying your Tang family is just a matter of a word for me. Why do I need to drive the Tang family to the brink of destruction first?"

"Lin Zitian, you..."

Tang Yurou was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Although Wang Shaojie was arrogant, what he said was true.

With the Wang family's power, destroying the Tang family would indeed be very easy.

So what do we do now?

If the Wang family's cooperation is lost and the Tang family's interests are harmed, Tang Yufei will inevitably seize the opportunity to incite the Tang family to attack her and her mother.

Even with her grandmother's support, she wouldn't be able to defy public opinion and would find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Tang family.

But if she agreed to Wang Shaojie's request for the sake of her family's interests, she would rather die.

When Wang Shaojie saw that Tang Yurou had reached a dead end, he knew that he had pushed her enough, so he immediately put on a smiling face.

"Yu Rou, don't be angry. I was just joking with you."

"Even if you don't marry me, I will continue to cooperate with the Tang family."

"But since it was your mother who broke the contract first, it's not too much to ask you to finish this bottle of liquor on the table as an apology to make up for my emotional distress, is it?"

Tang Yurou glanced at the bottle of strong liquor on the table, and how could she not guess Lin Zitian's little scheme?

However, for the sake of cooperation, she gritted her teeth and picked up the bottle of liquor.

"Okay, I'll drink."

I used to socialize a lot, which helped me develop a certain tolerance for alcohol.

A pound of liquor shouldn't be a big problem.

Wang Shaojie stood up excitedly, his eyes fixed on the liquor in Tang Yurou's hand.

He put something in the wine.

Even if Dionysus himself came, he would have to fall.
