Chapter 1336 Cao Gang Arrives!
Manager Tian chuckled and quickly explained, "Miss Cao, it's all a misunderstanding. The dragon king's temple was flooded by a sudden downpour, and we didn't recognize our own kin."
"What do you mean?" Cao Lu frowned.
"To be honest, Miss Cao, the Cao family patriarch has gifted this Villa Number Three to this Mr. Chen Xuan, and he has the key to Villa Number Three," Manager Tian said urgently.
"My uncle gave Villa Number Three to this fellow? Are you kidding me?" Cao Lu was stunned, greatly surprised.
It was known that Villa Number Three in Sheng Gong Villa was extremely precious. Cao Gang had no son and doted on Cao Lu immensely. However, even so, Cao Gang had not agreed to gift Villa Number Three to her despite her repeatedly asking for it, only agreeing to let her reside there. Now, this fellow claimed Cao Gang had gifted the villa to an outsider. How could she accept that?
"Everything I've said is true. Mr. Chen has the key to Villa Number Three," Manager Tian stated.
Chen Xuan tossed the key onto the coffee table. Cao Lu froze, then quickly rushed over, picked up the key, and examined it. She even tried opening the villa door a few times, finally confirming it was indeed the key to Villa Number Three.
"Tell me, how do you have the key to Villa Number Three? Did you steal it? If you don't confess honestly, I'll report you to the authorities!" Cao Lu glared down at Chen Xuan, demanding loudly.
"Someone said that earlier, but the facts have proven that I did not steal this key," Chen Xuan said with a faint smile, unfazed.
Manager Tian quickly added, "We suspected Mr. Chen of stealing the key earlier, but we didn't expect to alarm the Cao family patriarch. The patriarch sent the butler to personally explain this matter. If Miss Cao doesn't believe me, she can make a phone call to ask."
"What?" Cao Lu's eyes widened, and Zhou Xiaotian was also taken aback, not expecting that this matter would even alarm the Cao family patriarch, let alone have the butler personally come over.
"I don't believe you!"
"If you don't believe me, you can make a phone call to ask."
"You just wait!" Cao Lu took out her phone and called Cao Gang, but the call didn't connect for a long time. She then tried calling the butler, but that also didn't go through.
"The phone won't connect."
"Then there's nothing I can do. This is my residence now, please leave." Chen Xuan scanned Cao Lu and spoke calmly, adding, "Remember to pack up your things. I find them dirty!"
"You... you dare call me dirty? You scoundrel! I'm telling you, it's you who should get out. I think you're here to deceive people. Get out quickly!" Cao Lu was so angry she was hopping. Although the phone call didn't connect, Cao Lu had already believed most of it, as Manager Tian wouldn't and couldn't lie to her. However, she was very unhappy with Chen Xuan and, relying on her status as a Cao family lady, she didn't fear Chen Xuan and wasn't worried about punishment.
"You're still not leaving?" Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.
"It's you who should leave."
"I'm not leaving!" Cao Lu gritted her teeth in anger and turned to Manager Tian, saying, "Have them thrown out."
Manager Tian looked at Cao Lu, then at Chen Xuan, and his head started to ache. He couldn't afford to offend either of them! This was a difficult situation for him! He stammered, "Miss Cao, I'm just a security manager. I can't afford to offend anyone... Besides, we're all on the same side. It's best not to resort to violence."
"Useless, all of you are useless!" Cao Lu then turned to Zhou Xiaotian and said, "Xiaotian, take this guy down!"
"Lulu, just wait. See if I don't deal with this guy." Zhou Xiaotian threw the towel on his shoulders to the ground. He was looking for an opportunity to show off in front of Cao Lu, and this was it. The towel on his shoulders fell to the ground, revealing Zhou Xiaotian's massive chest muscles, like granite, which looked quite intimidating. However, Chen Xuan could see that all of Zhou Xiaotian's muscles were developed in the gym and fueled by protein powder. In reality, he was merely a paper tiger, utterly useless.
"Just you? Get out of my way quickly. Are you even worthy of fighting me?" Chen Xuan sat on the sofa, with his legs crossed, not moving at all, seemingly not taking Zhou Xiaotian seriously.
Zhou Xiaotian was extremely angered by Chen Xuan's disdain. He glared with wide eyes at Chen Xuan and said, "Kid, you say I'm not worthy? Watch me beat you until you're spitting teeth today!" With that, Zhou Xiaotian threw a punch towards Chen Xuan. The punch seemed powerful, but in Chen Xuan's eyes, it had no killing power at all. It was like a child's play.
"Kill him, kill him for me!" Cao Lu's eyes flashed with excitement. However, unexpectedly, Chen Xuan kicked Zhou Xiaotian in the throat. Before Zhou Xiaotian's fist could even touch Chen Xuan, it stopped abruptly, frozen in place. Zhou Xiaotian's eyes widened in shock, looking at Chen Xuan who was so close. If Chen Xuan moved his foot slightly, he would likely be severely injured! Cao Lu had expected Zhou Xiaotian to beat Chen Xuan soundly, but she hadn't anticipated him being dealt with so quickly by Chen Xuan.
"Are you my match?" Chen Xuan stared at Zhou Xiaotian, narrowing his eyes, and said with a faint smile.
"Kid, if you dare touch me, I'll have someone take your life!" Zhou Xiaotian threatened.
"Bang!" As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xuan kicked him in the throat. Zhou Xiaotian flew backward, crashing heavily to the ground, almost losing his life. A surge of blood rushed up, and Zhou Xiaotian spat out a mouthful of blood.
"The boyfriend you found isn't much either, just a pretty boy with no substance," Chen Xuan remarked playfully, looking at Cao Lu.
"You're shameless!" Cao Lu then yelled at Zhou Xiaotian, "Xiaotian, get up and kill this guy for me."
Zhou Xiaotian looked bitter. After their brief exchange, he knew Chen Xuan was no ordinary person. His strength was extraordinary, far beyond what his flashy moves could match.
"Useless, all of you are useless!" Seeing Zhou Xiaotian immobile, Cao Lu knew he was no match for Chen Xuan. She turned to Chen Xuan and said fiercely, "Kid, you dare lay a hand on my man, you're finished today! I'll have someone kill you!"
"Who are you going to have kill?" Suddenly, a thunderous voice boomed through the living room. Before the voice had faded, the villa's main door was pushed open again, and a powerful figure burst in. Seeing this person, Cao Lu's previously arrogant expression completely vanished, replaced by one of pitiable helplessness. She quickly rushed forward, grabbed the person's arm, and said tearfully, "Uncle, you've finally arrived! Look at your friend, he's hitting people!" The person who arrived was none other than the Cao family patriarch, Cao Gang! Seeing Cao Gang, Manager Tian and the other security personnel gasped. They hadn't expected this matter to actually alarm Cao Gang. Their breathing became rapid, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire, and they quickly greeted him, "Greetings, Patriarch Cao!" Following that, they remained silent, heads lowered, feigning ignorance. Su Yunxi and the others also looked uneasy. After all, Cao Lu was a member of the Cao family, while Chen Xuan was merely an outsider. Their relationship was likely not that stable.
