My Ares Son-in-Law

The moment he entered the private room, Sun Huowang's eyes were as sharp as an eagle and instantly fell on Jiang Yixiu.

He raised his chin slightly, a slightly sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Who was I thinking? It turned out to be Miss Jiang. No wonder the manager didn't dare to say who ordered the Huoyun wine." His voice was full of arrogance and disdain, as if in his eyes, everything was under his control.

"Sun Huowang!" Jiang Yixue looked at the person who came, frowned tightly, and her eyes were full of displeasure. As far as she knew, the Sun family was very close to the Amei Group, even closer than the Jiao family and the Amei Group. She was secretly alert in her heart, wondering what Sun Huowang was planning to do by coming here this time.

Sun Huowang didn't even look at Xiao Chen, as if Xiao Chen was just an insignificant person in his eyes.

He stared straight at Jiang Yixiu, with a look that refused to be refused, and said in a firm tone: "Let's discuss it. Give me the Huoyun Wine. I can give you the project that your Jiang family wanted last time." He seemed to think that the conditions he offered were very tempting, and the Jiang family had no reason not to agree.

Jiang Yixiu smiled gently, and that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, gentle yet with a hint of unquestionable determination.

She shook her head slowly, her voice was clear and pleasant but also revealed a firm strength: "No, that won't do. I bought this wine today to treat my friends. If you take it, what will I use to entertain my friends?" Her eyes met Sun Huowang's gaze frankly, without the slightest retreat in her eyes, as if to tell Sun Huowang that this bottle of wine was about her feelings for her friend, and she would never give it up easily.

It was only then that Sun Huowang seemed to have just noticed Xiao Chen's presence and slowly turned his gaze towards him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked Xiao Chen up and down with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

To him, Xiao Chen was a completely unfamiliar face. In the social circles and spheres of influence in East City that he was familiar with, he had never had any impression of Xiao Chen's appearance or name. This made Sun Huowang feel a little puzzled. What was the origin of this seemingly ordinary person in front of him?
"I am Sun Huowang from the Sun family, one of the eight great tyrants in Haidong, and one of the ten great geniuses in Haidong. Can you give me some face?" Sun Huowang raised his chin slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes, and looked at Xiao Chen indifferently, speaking slowly. He deliberately emphasized his identity, trying to use the power of his family and his own name to put pressure on Xiao Chen, so that the other party would retreat.

In fact, with Sun Huowang's usually domineering temper, if he encountered this situation normally, he would not say a word and would have directly resorted to threats. But at this moment, because he was not sure about Xiao Chen's identity and background, he had to suppress his temper a little and try to solve the problem in this relatively gentle way to see if he could successfully get the bottle of Huoyun wine.

Xiao Chen sat there quietly, with an upright posture and a calm expression. He glanced at Sun Huowang indifferently, his eyes were calm and deep, as if he could see through Sun Huowang's inner thoughts.

Then, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and he said calmly: "Oh, I see, but unfortunately, we don't know each other, and you don't have much face here. Please leave our private room. I don't like rude people!"

Xiao Chen's tone was calm yet powerful, every word was clear and forceful. He rejected Sun Huowang's request bluntly and did not hide his dissatisfaction with his impolite behavior.

Hearing this, a hint of coldness flashed across Sun Huowang's eyes, like an ice knife in the cold winter, with a piercing chill. A strong anger surged in his heart. He had always been able to call the shots in East City, and few people dared to defy him so openly.

The man in front of him clearly knew his identity, but he was still so arrogant and not only did he not show any trepidation or uneasiness, but he also did not have any intention of lowering his posture to please him. This undoubtedly made Sun Huowang feel extremely surprised and annoyed. This showed that the other party was not afraid of his identity, and even did not take him seriously, which greatly challenged Sun Huowang's self-esteem.

"What's your name, brother?" A seemingly enthusiastic smile suddenly broke out on Sun Huowang's face, with the corners of his mouth raised high, revealing a row of white teeth. However, the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense, and that cold gaze seemed to be able to freeze the air.

The strong contrast between his smile and his eyes makes people shudder, as if they can feel the surging waves hidden deep in his heart.

He was an extremely arrogant person, usually acting arrogantly and domineeringly, rarely taking others seriously. But at the same time, he was also an extremely cautious person. In this complex East City, if he was not careful, he might fall into an irretrievable situation.

Xiao Chen's tough attitude just now made him keenly aware that something was wrong. Without knowing the other party's background, he knew that he couldn't act rashly, otherwise if he offended someone he shouldn't, the Sun family might also be implicated.

Therefore, he had to find out Xiao Chen's identity, which led to his seemingly friendly inquiry.

"Xiao Chen!" Xiao Chen's tone was flat, his voice was concise and powerful, as if he didn't care about Sun Huowang's question. He simply spit out his name, without any ripples in his eyes, and he still sat there calmly.

Sun Huowang's eyes were slightly surprised, and his eyes, which were originally slightly narrowed, widened a little in an instant, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face: "So that's how it is, you are the person who made Jiao Yulang lose face at the fishing ground just now." There was a hint of profoundness in his tone, as if he was quite concerned about this matter, and it also revealed that he was more curious about Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen was also very surprised. He frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that Sun Huowang knew what happened at the fishing ground so quickly.

He tilted his head slightly, staring directly at Sun Huowang, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Young Master Sun is too well-informed. You actually already know what happened just now. It seems that you have quite a few spies in Miss Jiang's fishing grounds?"

Xiao Chen's words were like a sharp blade, stabbing directly at Sun Huowang, implying that he was placing people in the Jiang family's business, which was a disgraceful behavior.

"I can't say I have any spies, I just have a lot of friends." Sun Huowang's expression remained unchanged, still maintaining that faint smile, and he responded to Xiao Chen's questioning calmly. He knew in his heart that Xiao Chen's words were meant to hit him, but he couldn't get angry easily, so he could only deal with it vaguely. (End of this chapter)
