My Ares Son-in-Law

Jin Lang spoke in an unprecedentedly respectful and even trembling tone, his voice like a leaf shivering in the autumn wind, as he asked in a low and humble voice, "Mr. Xiao...?"

"Forgive my poor eyesight, I didn't recognize you at first glance..."

"You...you suddenly have time to come here for leisure?"

"Why didn't you give me advance notice? I could have cleared the area and personally come out to greet you..."

By the end, his voice was almost inaudible, and it carried a hint of ingratiation, making him look like a little dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

"Oh!"

The moment Jin Lang finished speaking, it was as if an invisible explosion had exploded in everyone's hearts.

At that moment, the noise and chatter that had been filling the luxurious hall vanished completely.

Everyone's breath seemed to be gripped tightly by an invisible yet incredibly powerful hand, completely halting their breathing!
The air seemed to freeze, making it hard to breathe.

Their eyes widened, so wide they looked like copper bells, their eyeballs almost bulging out of their sockets, as if they were about to jump out.

I stared in disbelief at the absurd and shocking scene before me, a scene as powerful as a nuclear explosion!
Their mouths were agape, their jaws nearly dislocated, and their expressions froze into statues of shock and astonishment.

When had they ever seen someone as arrogant and domineering as Jin Lang ever show such a humble, obsequious, cautious, and even servile side?

Normally, Jin Lang was a big shot in this city, always surrounded by people who fawned over him.

With just a glance or a gesture, he could instill fear in countless people and make them flock to him.

What's more, the other party had just beaten Mingcheng, whom he treated like a younger brother and doted on, half to death and made him lose face on his own turf!

Mingcheng often acted arrogantly and domineeringly when he followed Jinlang around, and Jinlang doted on him, granting his every wish.

But now, the man who beat Mingcheng is standing right there, and Jin Lang not only doesn't avenge him, but instead smiles and fawns at him like a servant. This huge contrast makes everyone feel like they are living in an absurd dream.

All the blank stares seemed to be drawn by invisible threads, the shocked eyes were like iron filings attracted by a magnet, the bewildered expressions were like fallen leaves swept in the same direction by a gale, and the fearful gazes were like eerie lights pulled by a dark abyss. Involuntarily, they all focused once again on the young man who had been sitting calmly at the bar, sipping his wine.

At this moment, the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was breathing cautiously, as if afraid of disturbing the mysterious young man.

At this moment, they realized with absolute clarity and depth that the identity and background of this young man were absolutely terrifying to the point of overturning all their understanding!
It was a shock that penetrated to the bone, like a huge rock suddenly being thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves.

Otherwise, there would be absolutely no way that Jin Lang, who has a powerful background, has always been unruly, and can turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist, would have such a stunning 180-degree reversal in attitude!

You have to understand, Jin Lang is usually arrogant and domineering towards everyone, never taking anyone seriously. But now he is bowing and scraping in front of that young man. This huge contrast has shocked everyone.

In the distance, Qin Lingling's once slender and delicate body trembled uncontrollably, like a flower branch shivering in the autumn wind. Her beautiful eyes were now filled with immense doubt, a doubt like a thick fog obscuring her once bright vision; overwhelming shock like a surging tide completely engulfed her; and an indescribable, bone-deep fear, a fear like a cold, venomous snake, slowly crawling down her spine.

Her mind kept replaying every moment she had known Xiao Chen. This Mr. Xiao, who had come with her, dressed plainly like any other passerby on the street, with an unremarkable demeanor and nothing outstanding about him... just who was this extraordinary person with such a powerful background?!

She felt like her head was about to explode, with countless question marks ramming into her mind.

How could someone so arrogant, with an unfathomable background and a vast network of connections and immense wealth in this city, instantly change his expression and become so terrified that he even went so far as to slap his own cousin in public to appease him and apologize?!

Mingcheng was Jinlang's cousin, and Jinlang usually doted on him, treating him like a precious gem. But now, for the sake of this Mr. Xiao, Jinlang slapped Mingcheng without hesitation. The implications of this made Qin Lingling increasingly frightened.

Before she could even recover from the enormous shock that had shattered her worldview, the aftershocks of that shock were still churning wildly in her mind, and then something even more astonishing and jaw-dropping happened...

Jin Lang, who had been standing to the side with a hint of fear and resentment on his face, suddenly felt as if an invisible and terrifying force had gripped his heart.

His body trembled violently, and his eyes widened instantly like copper bells, filled with bloodshot veins, his gaze filled with fear and determination.

He suddenly turned around, his movements as swift as a maddened cheetah, and roughly dragged Mingcheng, who was still stunned on the ground with a face full of grievance and resentment, over.

Mingcheng was slumped on the ground, his head still spinning. The burning pain on his face and the extreme humiliation in his heart made him unable to react for a moment.

Pulled by Jin Lang, he was dragged along like a rag doll, his feet kicking wildly on the ground, making indistinct "woo-woo" sounds.

Jin Lang's movements were utterly merciless, as if he were dragging a tattered sack, leaving a clear mark on the ground with each step.

Finally dragging him to Xiao Chen's bar, Jin Lang used all his strength to slam Ming Cheng to the ground.

The muffled thud sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.

Mingcheng fell heavily to the ground, his forehead instantly bleeding as blood slid down his cheek. He screamed in pain, instinctively covering his forehead with his hands and curling his body into a ball.

Jin Lang stood to the side, leaning slightly forward, his hands clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force.

He roared in a commanding tone, almost a roar, filled with fear and anger: "You blind fool!"

"waste!"

"Hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to Mr. Xiao to admit your mistake!"

"I beg Mr. Xiao's magnanimity to forgive you!"

"Otherwise, not only will your worthless life be destroyed, but the entire Ming family behind you will be wiped out of the ancient city because of your foolish actions today!" (End of Chapter)
