Jiu Gongzi

Chapter 46 Two Choices

Xue Zhiyuan watched Ye Qingmei and Zhang Xiaoduo stop, his face full of amusement, a deep sarcasm flashing in his eyes, and he continued to speak.

"What? Not moving anymore? Ye Qingmei, as long as you are obedient tonight, only your family of three will suffer, and Zhang Xiaoduo will be fine. I, Xue Zhiyuan, will keep my promise to lend money to her family."

"If you don't listen, hehe, you can try. Not only will your family of three be ruined tonight, but Zhang Xiaoduo's family will also be implicated by you!"

Ye Qingmei felt extremely troubled and glanced apologetically at Zhang Xiaoduo, not expecting her to be implicated by her tonight.

"Xue Zhiyuan, what do you want?" Ye Qingmei turned around, looking at Xue Zhiyuan, a hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes.

Zhang Xiaoduo's eyes were red. She just wanted to find something to smash into Xue Zhiyuan's face. If Ye Qingmei wasn't holding her hand tightly, she would have lost control long ago.

"What? Hehe." Xue Zhiyuan laughed heartily, looking around. All the classmates lowered their heads when they saw his gaze.

"It's the same as I said just now, sit obediently next to me, and wait for the surprise I have for you. As for Zhang Xiaoduo, she can do whatever she wants!"

Xue Zhiyuan said with undisguised passion in his eyes as he looked at Ye Qingmei.

"Enough! Xue Zhiyuan, this is a class reunion, don't bring your despicable methods here!"

Suddenly, the class monitor, Li Qiang, couldn't help but speak, his face full of anger. He stood up, looked at the classmates around him, then at Xue Zhiyuan, and continued.

"Xue Zhiyuan, Jiangnan is not a place where you can cover the sky with one hand! We are all university classmates, with four years of friendship. You are doing this in front of your classmates, isn't it too ugly?"

When Li Qiang spoke, everyone in the private room held their breath subconsciously, their eyes glancing at Xue Zhiyuan.

Xue Zhiyuan glanced at Li Qiang indifferently. Li Qiang stared back at him. A flash of disdain crossed Xue Zhiyuan's eyes. Suddenly, Xue Zhiyuan's eyes turned fierce, and he threw the wine glass in his hand directly at Li Qiang.

"Bang!" Li Qiang couldn't dodge in time and was hit in the face by the wine glass, red wine flowing all over him.

The surrounding classmates were all shocked by this scene. They stared blankly at the scene. Even Li Qiang's former roommates pretended not to see it, lowering their heads.

"What the hell are you? In college, you were the class monitor, and I still gave you some face. Now that we've graduated, you're still putting on airs as the class monitor. Are you looking to die!"

Xue Zhiyuan's tone was icy as he looked at Li Qiang, his expression full of mockery.

"Don't forget, I'm the major shareholder of your small company. Do you believe I can make your small company go bankrupt tomorrow?"

Li Qiang clenched his fists, silent, his face full of anger. After graduation, he started a business with friends. The initial progress was good, but he trusted Xue Zhiyuan and accepted investment from Xue Zhiyuan's company.

As a result, due to his youth and ignorance of business rules, he was tricked into signing an unfair contract. Now, Xue Zhiyuan held 80% of the shares in his company.

Moreover, if he left the company, he would have to face exorbitant compensation stipulated in the contract, which he could not afford.

Everyone present had shifting eyes, some with mockery, some with schadenfreude, and some with sympathy. Li Qiang's company's situation was not a secret among the classmates, but no one had mentioned it openly.

"Look at yourself, you dare to contradict Director Xue. Li Qiang, hurry up and apologize to Director Xue!"

Sun Qian said mockingly with a cold smile. When she was in college, she had confessed to Li Qiang, but he had rejected her. She had never forgotten this matter.

"Li Qiang, hurry up and apologize to Director Xue. Look at you, you're already drunk before drinking much." Someone chimed in to smooth things over.

Xue Zhiyuan looked at Li Qiang with amusement and said in a calm tone.

"If you want to apologize, show your sincerity and kneel down to apologize!"

A ferocious expression flashed across Li Qiang's face as he stared intently at Xue Zhiyuan.

"What are you still waiting for? Li Qiang, hurry up and kneel down to apologize. Director Xue is magnanimous and won't be bothered with you. You really think you're someone important?" Sun Qian said from the side.

"Li Qiang, hurry up and kneel down to apologize. Don't be ungrateful." Someone said sarcastically.

"Yes, hurry up and kneel down. We're all classmates, no one will spread it out." The surrounding classmates also chimed in.

"Enough!" Ye Qingmei suddenly shouted, looking at the surrounding classmates with disappointment. Had Xue Zhiyuan changed everyone?

Ye Qingmei looked at Xue Zhiyuan and said, "Xue Zhiyuan, we are all classmates, why do you have to make things so ugly?"

"Heh heh!" Xue Zhiyuan looked at Ye Qingmei dismissively and said.

"Ye Qingmei, do you have to show off your presence? This matter was not related to you, but you insist on getting involved. Whether your family of three can get through tonight safely is still uncertain, and now you're worrying about others?"

"Hmph, you slut, you still think this is university? Relying on your scheming to get the title of campus belle, you think everyone will accommodate you?" Sun Qian said mockingly.

Ye Qingmei's face turned red. Li Qiang saw this and a struggle flashed across his face. He said to Xue Zhiyuan.

"Xue Zhiyuan, I'll kneel down and apologize, but Ye Qingmei is just a woman, please let her go."

"Shut up! What right do you have to make demands of me? If I tell you to kneel, you kneel!" Xue Zhiyuan glared at Li Qiang, then looked at Ye Qingmei and said playfully.

"Ye Qingmei, I'll give you a choice now. First, you come and kneel beside me, and I can pretend that nothing happened, and we can continue the party."

"Second, you, Zhang Xiaoduo, and Li Qiang, all three of you will be finished tonight!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, your husband waiting downstairs should have his legs broken by now."

"Tonight, your family of three will suffer no matter what. So, do you choose to suffer by yourself, or do you choose to drag Zhang Xiaoduo and Li Qiang, who are speaking up for you, down with you?"

After Xue Zhiyuan finished speaking, he sat back in his seat, crossed his legs, and looked at Ye Qingmei with a playful expression. Then he looked at the surrounding classmates and said in a calm tone.

"And you all, if you think what I, Xue Zhiyuan, am doing today is excessive, you can all try to refute me."

"Let me tell you the truth, I've taken a liking to Ye Qingmei, and I want to have her tonight. I'm doing all this to force her to comply."

"If any of you think you can help Ye Qingmei, you can all try to help, and see if I, Xue Zhiyuan, can handle it tonight!"

"Director Xue is joking. We've all graduated and have been in society for three years. What haven't we seen? If you treat Ye Qingmei like this, if she's smart, this might be her opportunity. Who among us has any objections?" Sun Qian said with a smile, glancing at Ye Qingmei with a look of delight.

"Yes, Director Xue is really joking. We are all hoping to follow you in the future, how dare we refute you?" a classmate said.

"Ye Qingmei, just come and kneel, don't drag others down."

"Ye Qingmei, hurry up, don't look so troubled. You must have been secretly happy in your heart. If I could be so highly regarded by Director Xue, I would have soared to the heavens and enjoyed glory and wealth for a lifetime." A plain-looking female student with heavy makeup said enviously.

Only five or six classmates in the private room spoke, fawning over Xue Zhiyuan and persuading Ye Qingmei, but more remained silent.

"What's so great about that? Isn't it just because your family has power and influence? Qingmei, Li Qiang, let's go. I don't believe he, Xue Zhiyuan, dares to cause trouble at Yunshan Tiangong!" Zhang Xiaoduo finally couldn't help it. She ran over, grabbed Li Qiang, and prepared to leave together.

But Li Qiang didn't move, only with a pained expression, his eyes slightly teary.

Xue Zhiyuan heard this and immediately laughed, saying dismissively.

"Haha, Zhang Xiaoduo, you've stumbled upon a lucky break. You've actually hit the nail on the head."

"Yunshan Tiangong is an industry of the Su family in Jiangnan. You probably don't understand the significance of these four words, the Su family of Jiangnan. In short, ordinary people really dare not cause trouble here."

"However, I happen to know the young master of the Su family, Su Ping, and Yunshang Tiangong also has some business dealings with my Xue family. So, no matter how big the trouble I cause tonight, no one will come to manage me."

As soon as Xue Zhiyuan said this, Zhang Xiaoduo and Li Qiang's faces turned pale. They didn't expect Xue Zhiyuan's influence to be so powerful. They were completely at his mercy tonight.

"The Su family of Jiangnan! That's a top noble family. Director Xue, you have great influence to even know the young master of the Su family." Sun Qian said fawningly, her eyes flashing with ulterior motives.

She had achieved her current success through Chen Xing of the Chen family. If she could get to know the young master of the Su family and gain his favor, wouldn't her future career be smooth sailing?

"Haha, of course. Young Master Su is not here tonight, otherwise, I would definitely invite him to have a few drinks with us so that you all can get acquainted." Xue Zhiyuan said proudly, then looked at Ye Qingmei indifferently and said impatiently.

"Ye Qingmei, have you thought about it? My patience is limited!"

Everyone in the private room looked at Ye Qingmei, silent, waiting for Ye Qingmei's choice.

Just then, the door of the private room suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man walked in. He looked at the people in the private room, smiled and nodded, then asked.

"Excuse me, who is Madam Li, Ms. Ye Qingmei?"

The person who came was the general manager of Yunshang Tiangong, a member of the Su family, Su Haitao.

...

Half an hour ago, outside Yunshang Tiangong, Li Xiaotian and Long Yi were strolling leisurely. Estimating that Ye Qingmei's class reunion was almost over, Li Xiaotian asked Long Yi to call Song Wei and the head of the Su family respectively.

His great surprise for Ye Qingmei was about to be staged!

Suddenly, five or six figures appeared in front of them, all strong and burly men, walking towards Li Xiaotian and the other.

The leader was a middle-aged burly man wearing a leather coat.
