Chapter 311 - 0311: Are You Serious?

Chapter 311: Chapter 0311: Are You Serious?

Chu Ge’s voice was serene as the wind.

After he finished speaking, the four people seated were all stunned.

What did they just hear? Was it Earth Ganoderma?

Tang Xin, even more bewildered, looked at Chu Ge, her lips parted as if she wanted to say something, only to hear Shen Congwen also asking in confusion, "Mr. Chu, did you mention Earth Ganoderma?"

"Exactly." Chu Ge nodded.

’Boom-’ Tang Xin’s head buzzed in disbelief, looking at Chu Ge, "You mean Earth Ganoderma?"

She had an inexplicable feeling that this matter was related to the Tang Sect, recalling the incident not long ago when Huo Tianqian was almost killed in a robbery in Su City. Could it have been then?

Chu Ge chuckled softly, nodding again, but his smile contained a trace of coldness.

Tang Xin’s lips twitched, and she sat to one side in silence.

What should be done now? Initially, she hoped that since Chu Ge was already a guest of honor in the Tang Family, they might be able to connect with the Nangong Family through him, but now it seemed that it would be good enough if Chu Ge didn’t hold it against them.

Tang Xin was feeling uneasy, while Shen Congwen reveled in her misfortune.

He glanced at Tang Xin, then said with a smile, "Mr. Chu, the Tang Family snatched an Earth Ganoderma not long ago. I’ve heard about this incident too, but that Earth Ganoderma wasn’t top quality. If Mr. Chu would like to visit my humble home, I can personally show you a First-level Earth Ganoderma."

"Hmph, since you want to please Mr. Chu, then show some sincerity. What do you mean ’take a look’?" Tang Xin was somewhat upset inside, finally having an opportunity to serve her family, and yet it was disrupted by such a blunder. How could she be willing to accept this!

"Lady Tang, if you don’t understand, please don’t spout nonsense. I’ve already said, this First-level Earth Ganoderma is extremely precious, even though it has been plucked, it must be nourished with spring water, otherwise, it will lose its value."

Shen Congwen habitually reached for his wrist only to grasp at empty air, suddedly remembering that his Jade Watch had been taken by Chu Ge, then naturally placed his hand on his knee and continued, "The reason why Earth Ganoderma is precious is not only because it is rare, but also because of its value; Earth Ganoderma nourished with spring water retains all its medicinal properties."

At this point, Shen Congwen’s eyes shone with a hint of pride, as if proudly showing off his many years of painstaking cultivation to the world.

Tang Xin sneered, she naturally didn’t understand these things, and no one in her family had told her about them.

After hearing this, Chu Ge’s eyes momentarily lit up, but he was very clear in his heart that he could not just take something from the Shen Family for no reason; it would be best if it could be bought with money, but he feared Shen Congwen might not agree.

His eyes revealed too much, especially the greed of those in power.

Chu Ge fell silent for a moment, not saying much.

Tang Xin stood up, addressing Chu Ge, "Since this matter was caused by the Tang Family, then let me handle it for Mr. Chu."

Now, all she could do was try her best to mitigate the negative impact caused by the Tang Family’s theft from Mr. Chu.

Chu Ge nodded and chuckled softly, "If Lady Tang personally deals with this matter, it saves me the trouble of taking action myself."

"Hmph! Quite the bold statement!" Suddenly, a coarse voice came from the doorway.

Half-concealed, the door was violently kicked open, and Chu Ge raised his eyes to see a man in a white Tang costume standing at the door, his face marred by a ferocious scar, which made him look terrifying.

The Scarred Man scanned the room with his eyes, finally resting on Tang Xin. His eyes lit up, and a sinister smile spread across his fierce face instantly, the scars making the smile even more terrifying.

"Miss Tang? What are you doing here?" The Scarred Man spoke with a hint of pleasure. Surprising indeed, encountering Miss Tang Xin on a mission, he thought he should really perform well in front of her to win her favor.

As the Scarred Man thought to himself, his gaze then moved to the man next to Tang Xin, his eyes narrowing slightly, "Miss Tang, the world is unsafe now, don’t be deceived by the appearances of some people."

Clearly, he had already considered Chu Ge as a rival in his pursuit of Tang Xin.

"Brother, Huo Tianqian is over there!" A junior standing behind him pointed at Huo Tianqian hiding behind Chu Ge.

The Scarred Man stroked his chin, speaking disdainfully, "I heard that Huo Tianqian came to Su City again looking for help to seek revenge. The small team I sent earlier was wiped out, and now I want to see who is so capable."

Tang Xin’s face looked terrible, "Tang You, who sent you here?"

The Scarred Man seemed not to hear her question, and said, "Miss Tang, you’d better leave here quickly, otherwise if you get hurt later, I won’t be able to explain to the Tang Family Patriarch."

"Was it my dad who sent you?" Tang Xin frowned.

The Scarred Man didn’t notice the change in Tang Xin’s emotion, and turned to instruct the junior behind him, "What are you standing around for? Go capture Huo Tianqian and his accomplices!"

"No one dare to touch them!" Tang Xin stepped forward angrily, pointing at Tang You and shouting, "Tang You! Just because you are now with the Tang Sect, you think I can’t command you?"

Ignoring her words, and even her existence.

The Scarred Man was taken aback. He had not expected Tang Xin to obstruct them, momentarily unsure of what he had done wrong, "Miss, look at what you’re saying. How could I, Tang You, not listen to Miss?"

Tang Xin snorted coldly, "Hurt me? If you’re afraid of hurting me, why not just ask me to leave first?"

"Uh." The Scarred Man was speechless; if she left, how could he show off his power?

Tang Xin, with her hands on her waist, glared at the Scarred Man furiously, "Tang You, I warn you, everyone in this room is my friend. If you dare to touch a single hair on them, be careful I’ll make you regret it!"

She spoke loudly and confidently, her petite figure standing across the doorway, hands blocking in front of the Scarred Man.

"Miss, are you serious?" the Scarred Man asked uncertainly.

He had indeed observed the room earlier, noting not only Huo Tianqian but also the two Shen Family Brothers.

The Tang and Shen Families have long been at odds, and when did the Miss become friends with them? Should the Old Master know, Miss would definitely suffer.

"Miss, the Shen Family’s people are also here," the Scarred Man whispered, now presuming Nangong Yunhai among Tang Xin’s friends, thinking none of the other four people in the room would escape from his grasp today!

"Tang You, did you not hear what I just said?" Tang Xin glared at him furiously, emphasizing word by word, "I said all the people in this room are my friends! As long as I am here, you’re not allowed to touch them!"
