Chapter 303: Chapter 0303: You Dare to Stop My Boyfriend

"Young Master Zhou, what do you mean? Is there something wrong with my invitation?"

Liu Gaoze frowned with confusion as he asked.

"There’s nothing wrong with this invitation. However, I am going to give you a different one now,"

Zhou Haomin squinted his eyes and said indifferently, "Your invitation has been downgraded. It’s only for your personal use now; you can’t bring any attendants."

"What?"

Liu Gaoze’s frown deepened. This was outright humiliation.

"Are you deliberately picking a fight?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Ming became furious.

"Keep calm, we can’t make trouble here today."

Liu Gaoze quickly grabbed Tang Ming. He knew all too well about Tang Ming’s temper; if a fight were to break out, it would be troublesome.

"Haha, my Zhou Family is a Martial Arts Family in Songlan City. It is an honor for the Liu Family, a commercial family, to receive an invitation from us. Now, if I don’t want this person to enter, I have the right to change the Liu Family’s invitation!"

Zhou Haomin chuckled maliciously, reached out and took out an invitation similar to Zhou Dafu’s, wrote Liu Gaoze’s name on it, and handed it over, "You may go in now."

If Liu Gaoze had been a representative of a Martial Arts Family, Zhou Haomin would never have dared to do this. But seeing that Liu Gaoze was just a leader of a commercial family, he had no regard for him. After all, the power of a Martial Arts Family far exceeded that of a commercial family. Moreover, since Liu Gaoze was meddling in what didn’t concern him, Zhou Haomin felt no need to be polite.

Seeing himself being publicly demoted in terms of the invitation’s status, Liu Gaoze’s face turned red, yet he didn’t know how to react. After all, the Liu Family was a commercial family and simply couldn’t compare with a Martial Arts Family like the Zhou Family. He hesitated over whether or not to reveal his identity from the Dark Group.

"Since the Zhou Family is going too far, then I won’t attend at all!"

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Gaoze made his decision, snorted coldly, and turned to Tang Ming, "Let’s go home."

"No need to see you out!"

Zhou Haomin responded nonchalantly. Then, he watched Tang Ming and Zhou Dafu with undisguised triumph.

Tang Ming, with his brows tightly knit, felt a wave of annoyance. If it were simply the Zhou Family’s anniversary celebration, he might not have bothered to come even with an invitation. However, his main purpose this time was to show support for Zhou Dafu, who would certainly be bullied if they just walked away now.

"My dear, you’re here too?"

Just when Liu Gaoze seemed out of options, a surprised and delighted cheer suddenly rang out.

Before anyone could react, they saw a stunningly beautiful woman in a black dress rushing towards Tang Ming.

"Su Xiaoxi?"

Tang Ming was slightly surprised and tried to push away Su Xiaoxi, who had thrown herself into his arms.

"Don’t move. If you want to get in, you have to listen to me!"

Su Xiaoxi whispered in Tang Ming’s ear.

"Hey, this isn’t the place for your sweet nothings. You’re blocking the other guests from entering."

Zhou Haomin, seeing the enchanting beauty flirting with Tang Ming, shouted with irritation.

"Are you talking to me?"

Su Xiaoxi, with her arm slung through Tang Ming’s, looked emotionlessly at Zhou Haomin, "Who are you to speak to me like that? I am a representative of the Su Family of Martial Arts."

"The Su Family?"

Zhou Haomin’s face stiffened, and he asked uncertainly, "Which Su Family?"

"Hmph!"

Su Xiaoxi snorted coldly and tossed the invitation at Zhou Haomin.

Zhou Haomin hurriedly opened the invitation, and indeed, it was that very Su Family he had in mind, his heart breaking into a cold sweat, "Just who exactly is Tang Ming? Having the Liu Family backing him is one thing, but to be so familiar with the Su Family—this is trouble, isn’t it?"

"Tang Ming is my boyfriend, if the Zhou Family won’t let him through the door, then the old master Zhou will have to give my grandfather a good explanation!"

With a cold tone, Su Xiaoxi said, her arm linked with Tang Ming’s.

"Haha, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Zhou Haomin quickly handed back the invitation to Su Xiaoxi, explaining, "If I had known earlier he was Miss Su’s boyfriend, I would definitely not have made things difficult for him. I was only considering the safety of the banquet, so I hope Miss Su won’t take offense."

Tang Ming looked at Su Xiaoxi in surprise, he already knew that Su Xiaoxi came from a Martial Arts Family, but he hadn’t expected the Su Family to carry such weight. However, there seemed to be no Martial Arts Family named Su in Songlan City?

"So can my boyfriend accompany me inside now?"

After taking back the invitation, Su Xiaoxi looked at Zhou Haomin and asked.

"Certainly, you are most welcome."

A wave of nausea swept through Zhou Haomin, but he still managed to put on a very honored smile.

"Let’s go, dear, we are off to wish Master Zhou a happy birthday."

Right away, Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming tenderly and coyly suggested.

With a smile, Tang Ming entered the grand entrance accompanied by Su Xiaoxi.

Zhou Dafu, his face brimming with joy, walked in as well, accompanied by Zhou’s mother.

Liu Gaoze watched Tang Ming and Su Xiaoxi walk in together with a complicated expression. Seeing his son-in-law paired up with another woman, he found the feeling to be quite bizarre.

"This Tang Ming fellow actually managed to capture the heart of the Su Family’s young miss. He’s no ordinary man. I must not allow him to call off the engagement; I have to keep him close to Meng Ting."

The more Liu Gaoze saw of Tang Ming’s capability, the more resolute he became about his plan to bleed Tang Ming dry.

Once inside the hotel, Su Xiaoxi whispered, "I just did you a pretty big favor this time. If Sun Zhuangjia comes to bother me later, you have to put on a good performance."

"Alright, considering you helped me out, I’ll give you a fifty percent discount for this time. Can’t make it any cheaper than that."

Tang Ming whispered back just as softly.

"You, why is it always money, money, money with you!"

Su Xiaoxi was speechless for a moment.

"Money makes the world go round; without it, one can’t move an inch. What about the debt you owe me from the auction? When are you planning to pay it back?"

Tang Ming asked with concern. That was not a small sum, and getting it back would be enough for him to terminate the contract with the Liu Family and settle the damages.

"A poor, weak woman like me can only pay off her debts with her body. How about I dedicate myself to you?"

Su Xiaoxi made the pitiful suggestion.

"I’m not interested in you."

Tang Ming was speechless, reflecting inwardly, "The girls in the city sure are bold!"

The group entered the banquet hall chatting and laughing, then found a table and sat down together.

Zhou Haotian, busy in the banquet hall, immediately noticed Zhou Dafu and Tang Ming and looked toward a disheartened Zhou Haomin with dissatisfaction. "Didn’t I tell you to keep Tang Ming out? How did he still get in?"

"Big brother, this Tang Ming is really tricky. In my effort to stop him, I even offended the Liu Family. But who could have guessed that he is Su Xiaoxi’s boyfriend?"

Zhou Haomin sighed helplessly and said morosely, "We have to give face to the Su Family!"

"So that’s it. No wonder he is so arrogant. He’s riding on Su Xiaoxi’s coattails after all!"

Zhou Haotian suddenly realized and said coldly, "Let it be. Everything will proceed as planned. I doubt he can stir up any trouble."
