Looking at Ma Wenlong's ferocious face, Tang Xinjie felt her mind go blank. She had never thought that Ma Wenlong would look at her like this.
Although Tang Xinjie had a good impression of Yang Qi, it was limited to this extent. Given the status of the Tang family, if Tang Xinjie didn't like Ma Wenlong, the two of them would never be together. But in her eyes, Ma Wenlong was completely different at this moment, completely different from his usual gentle and elegant image!
Although Tang Xinjie felt that Ma Wenlong was a little different from when they first met, she didn't think much about it. After all, they didn't know each other very well when they first met. At least Ma Wenlong didn't do evil like the rich second-generations he knew, and Ma Wenlong's occasional romantic actions eventually moved her.
Seeing Tang Xinjie fall silent, Ma Wenlong's jealousy grew stronger, and he sneered, "Why, you have nothing to say?"
"I was blind. I didn't expect you to look at me like that." Tang Xinjie smiled bitterly.
She had finally healed the pain of being kidnapped, but her boyfriend actually looked at her like this. At this moment, Tang Xinjie's heart seemed to be broken.
Ma Wenlong had made quite a commotion before, and many people in the banquet were looking over at him.
"You stinky..." Ma Wenlong was about to speak.
Pah~
A crisp sound was heard. It turned out that Yang Qi, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch it anymore and slapped Ma Wenlong in the face.
"You... you dare to hit me?"
Ma Wenlong looked at Yang Qi in front of him with a look of surprise. This was Master Xu's club, and a small bodyguard actually took action here. He was simply courting his own death!
"Boy, you are dead. Young Master Xu will not let you go." Ma Wenlong smiled grimly. No matter what, he was also Xu Ling's guest. Being beaten on his territory would be like slapping Xu Ling in the face. Xu Ling would definitely not ignore it.
"If you don't watch your mouth, I will still beat you even if Xu Ling comes." Yang Qi snorted coldly. He had been tolerant again and again for Tang Xinjie's sake. Now Ma Wenlong was actually being rude to Tang Xinjie. How could he bear it any longer
“Okay… okay…” Ma Wenlong laughed angrily.
"Ma Wenlong, from now on, you and I will go our separate ways." Tang Xinjie held back the tears in her eyes and snorted, "Before you leave, let me remind you that you can't afford to offend him."
Before she finished her words, Tang Xinjie immediately turned around and ran out of the banquet hall.
Looking at Tang Xinjie leaving, Yang Qi did not chase after her, but ordered the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada to secretly follow Tang Xinjie and protect her safety.
"I can't afford to offend him?" Ma Wenlong sneered and didn't take Tang Xinjie's words to heart at all.
He might not be able to afford to offend Yang Qi, but now that Yang Qi had taken action in the club, he was no longer provoking him, Ma Wenlong, but was provoking Xu Ling. The Xu family was one of the best families in the imperial capital!
Even if Yang Qi has some background and power in Qingzhou City, it is not enough in the imperial capital, the capital of the emperor.
"Ma Wenlong!" Yang Qi's face darkened.
If Tang Xinjie and Ma Wenlong were still in a relationship, he might still have some concerns. But now that the two have completely broken up, Ma Wenlong will naturally not let it go. This time, Ma Wenlong not only provoked him, but also spoke rudely to Tang Xinjie!
"Tang Xinjie is right. You shouldn't provoke me." Yang Qi said indifferently.
"Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, this is Mr. Xu's territory!" Ma Wenlong sneered.
Although the Ma family is far inferior to the Xu family, it still has some fame in China. Among the powerful forces that Ma Wenlong knows, there is no one with the surname Yang.
"Mr. Yang, what's going on?" At this moment, a familiar voice was heard from the crowd. It was Wang Baiyi who came here after hearing the commotion.
"It's okay. Someone is using Xu Ling's name to pressure me." Yang Qi said calmly.
Wang Baiyi's face changed, he glanced at Ma Wenlong, and then he said, "Mr. Yang, don't get me wrong, this person has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. Xu."
He knew something about Yang Qi's identity, a person that even the Xu family didn't dare to offend. If Yang Qi had any misunderstandings about Young Master Xu because of this unknown young man in front of him, it would be troublesome.
Yang Qi naturally believed what Wang Baiyi said. In fact, if the other party was really close to Xu Ling, he could not be unaware of his identity. After all, the conflict between him and the Zheng family had caused quite a stir in the imperial capital. Some families with real background knew about this matter.
"What's going on?"
At this moment, a slightly unpleasant voice came from behind the crowd. Yang Qi was familiar with the owner of this voice. It was Xu Ling. He obviously knew that something happened in the banquet hall, so he rushed over as soon as possible.
Hearing Xu Ling's voice, the onlookers immediately made way for him. Then, three figures came over. Leading the way was Xu Ling. Beside him were Xie Guangyao and a white man. This man should be the Mr. Smith mentioned by Xu Ling.
"Mr. Xu, you came at the right time. I don't know whose bodyguard is so bold as to hit the guests here." Ma Wenlong glanced at Yang Qi, and immediately said to Xu Ling.
"Who said Mr. Yang is a bodyguard?" Xu Ling glanced at Ma Wenlong and said coldly, "Mr. Yang is the most distinguished guest of the club."
What!
As soon as these words came out, Ma Wenlong's face suddenly changed. He had never thought that Yang Qi would be a guest of the club. As far as he knew, although Yang Qi had some wealth, he should not be qualified to attend this banquet. After all, their Ma family had a net worth of tens of billions, and they were barely qualified to get an invitation!
"How could this happen?" Ma Wenlong's face turned pale, but when his eyes fell on the white man next to Xu Ling, his eyes lit up.
"Mr. Smith, I didn't expect that we meet again." Ma Wenlong said quickly.
“You are…” Smith looked at Ma Wenlong, and the next moment he seemed to remember something, and exclaimed, “I remember, you are Wenlong Ma!”
Hearing Smith's somewhat strange accent, a smile appeared on the faces of the people around him. If they were not trying hard to hold back, many of them would have laughed at this moment.
However, Ma Wenlong let out a long breath. Smith finally recognized him. He could see that Xu Ling thought highly of Smith. He happened to know Smith, so he might be able to use Smith's relationship to resolve the matter. Otherwise, based on Xu Ling's attitude towards him just now, he had no doubt that Xu Ling would not deal with Yang Qi next, but him, Ma Wenlong!
"Mr. Smith, isn't your president here?" Yang Qi looked at Smith and said calmly.
President
Smith was stunned, his eyes fell on Yang Qi, then his pupils shrank suddenly, and a figure flashed through his mind.
"Are you Mr. Yang?" Smith looked at Yang Qi in disbelief. He never expected to see Yang Qi here! (To be continued)
