TDDDMFM Chapter 7

 "Shut up!"

Shen Yue glared at Zhou Xiaobei angrily. "Fabricating lies? Do we need to resort to that? It's you who's spouting nonsense at my family's event. You're either crazy or mentally unstable! Security, where are you? Get this lunatic out of here!"

Security rushed over.

Zhou Xiaobei stared at Shen Yue incredulously.

"So, you're Shen Yue?"

It had to be admitted, Shen Yue was indeed beautiful, with a melon-seed face, big eyes, a high nose bridge, and a slender figure. Standing close to 1.7 meters tall, wearing high heels and a light apricot evening gown, adorned with exquisite jewelry, she appeared elegant and graceful, with a captivating aura.

"Yes, I'm Shen Yue!"

Zhou Xiaobei looked at her. "You're unwilling to marry me?"

Shen Yue burst into laughter on the spot. "I advise you to look in the mirror in the restroom and see if you're worthy of marrying me. I really don't know where you get your confidence from. A toad wishing to eat swan meat!"

Zhou Xiaobei immediately looked at Shen Xinmin.

"Shen Old Man, how do you teach your daughter? Who's the toad? Fifteen years ago, you personally promised to marry your daughter to me. Now, are you and your family planning to go back on your word?"

Shen Xinmin said, "I don't quite remember what happened fifteen years ago. Young man, your master did indeed help me, and I won't deny that. How about this, I'll have the finance department give you a million as repayment for the life-saving grace of Chu Shenxian."

"What do you mean, are you really planning to break off the engagement?"

He had come all the way to Xiangcheng for this engagement, and now, they were trying to dismiss him with a million. Did they think he was so easily fooled?

"This is how it is, fifteen years ago..."

"I understand!" Zhou Xiaobei's expression turned cold. "Shen Old Man, you're trying to go back on your word, right? Fine, if that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless. If there are any consequences in the future, you'll have to bear them yourself."

Leaving these words behind, Zhou Xiaobei turned and started to leave.

But he hadn't taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped, looking at the mountain of various precious gifts piled up at the door. His gaze finally settled on a large piece of longevity stone.

This longevity stone was as large as an Eight Immortals table, with good quality, entirely green, and had a fierce appearance.

However...

A faithless villain wanting a long life, dreaming of being your mother's spring and autumn dreams!

Zhou Xiaobei put down his luggage, took two steps back, and suddenly, with a sudden rush, he slapped the longevity stone with a palm.

Thunk!

A dull sound echoed, and a palm print about five centimeters deep appeared on the longevity stone.

The palm print was clearly visible!

The guests were shocked.

This country bumpkin had such great strength!

Shen Xinmin's pupils contracted sharply, a trace of sharpness flashing in his eyes.

Shen Ye was both shocked and angry. "Kid, are you seeking death?"

"You'll bear the consequences."

Zhou Xiaobei threw out a sentence, picked up his luggage, turned around, and left, ignoring the murderous glares behind him.

"Acting recklessly and wanting to leave? What do you think this place is!"

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the opposite side, followed by a young man in a white tailcoat, walking into the banquet hall with two bodyguards accompanying him.

The young man was in his twenties, handsome and elegant, wearing a custom-made tailcoat, exuding an air of nobility all over. He was followed by two tall and sturdy bodyguards.

"Dong Young Master is here!"

"So, this is Dong Tianming, Dong Young Master? Truly outstanding! Now, things are getting interesting. Everyone in Xiangcheng knows that Dong Young Master is in a relationship with Miss Shen Yue. Now, this rustic guy from the village dares to impersonate Miss Shen's fiancé. Dong Young Master will definitely not let him off. This guy is in for a rough time."

The guests' eyes lit up when they saw Dong Tianming.

Dong Tianming first asked the bodyguards to watch Zhou Xiaobei, then went straight to Shen Xinmin and respectfully said, "Tianming pays his respects to Uncle Shen. On behalf of the Dong family, I congratulate Yue Lai Group on its successful listing... Someone, bring me the gift I prepared."

One of Dong Tianming's bodyguards immediately presented a small box.

Inside the box lay a wild mountain ginseng with top leaves, with dense and intertwining roots. What was even more astonishing was that this wild mountain ginseng seemed to have matured, faintly showing a humanoid form!

"Longevity mountain ginseng from Changbai Mountain, a hundred years old. I spent twenty million at an auction a few days ago to buy it specially for Uncle Shen's health."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an immediate gasp from the crowd.

Twenty million for a century-old wild mountain ginseng from Changbai Mountain. Dong Young Master was indeed generous.

All the guests present were either rich or noble, but to give away such an expensive gift, to be honest, not many could afford it.

Shen Xinmin was very satisfied, with a smile on his face.

"Tianming, you're so thoughtful!"

Dong Tianming smiled. "A priceless gift for a cherished one... "

After speaking, Dong Tianming turned to Zhou Xiaobei and frowned. "Uncle Shen, who is this beggar? On the joyous day of Yue Lai Group, how could such a person be allowed in?"

"After debts," Shen Xinmin said plainly.

When Zhou Xiaobei heard Shen Xinmin's words, his eyes immediately became sharp.

Debts?

Screw your mother's nonsense!

Zhou Xiaobei turned to Shen Xinmin, sneered coldly, and began to curse, his words full of vulgarity and profanity.

The whole room was in an uproar!

This kid dared to curse at Shen Xinmin?

Was he crazy?!

In this little patch of land in Xiangzhou, who dares to insult Shen Xinmin to his face? With Shen Xinmin's status, even the city mayor would give him some face. This kid is really asking for trouble!

"What did you say?" Shen Ye couldn't contain his anger.

This beggar dared to insult his father, he was simply asking for death!

"Get out of the way, what business do you have here!"

Zhou Xiaobei glanced at Shen Ye with disdain and said coldly, "What are you? When I'm talking to your father, you get out of the way!"

Ignoring the furious Shen Ye, Zhou Xiaobei looked at Shen Xinmin and said, "Shen, I'll ask you one last time. Do you acknowledge the engagement that was set years ago?"

Shen Xinmin's face turned dark.

"Fictional nonsense, what acknowledgment or denial?"

If before Shen Xinmin had considered giving Zhou Xiaobei some face because of Chu Yuhuan, now, after Zhou Xiaobei's insults, that consideration was gone. Shen Xinmin had no more reservations and said in a deep voice, "As my daughter said, I think you should look in the mirror and see if you're worthy!"

"Kid, I'll let it go for Chu Yuhuan's sake, but now, get out immediately."
