My Ares Son-in-Law

How can it be!

Zhang Que was completely dumbfounded.

The invitation was actually personally signed and sent out by Qin Xianglan.

That ordinary-looking man driving a beat-up car was actually a distinguished guest whom even Qin Xianglan feared?

This...this is impossible!

Zhang Que's face instantly changed, turning deathly pale.

He knew he was doomed. He had offended Qin Xianglan's distinguished guest, and he knew what the consequences would be. But today, he was making the same stupid mistake again. He deserved to die.

Zhou Hao's smile froze instantly, his eyes filled with disbelief.

She never expected that Xiao Chen had such influence that even Qin Xianglan had to come and inquire about the matter personally.

“Zhang Que, do you know what a stupid thing you did? Not only did you not treat my guests according to VIP standards, but you also made things difficult for them in public and humiliated them, forcing them to leave Wanbaoge.”

Qin Xianglan walked coldly toward Zhang Que, each step carrying immense pressure. "Do you know how much damage you've caused to Wanbaoge and the Qin family? If Mr. Xiao is enraged, Wanbaoge will be finished, and the Qin family will be finished too. You wouldn't be planning to harm my Qin family, would you?"

Zhang Que knelt down with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly: "Miss, I was wrong, I was really wrong! Please give me another chance, I will never dare to do it again, please!"

Qin Xianglan didn't look at him, but turned to Qin Mian, her tone flat and devoid of any emotion: "Qin Mian, Zhang Que is your man, you handle it."

Qin Mian strode forward, his face ashen, and looked at Zhang Que with no sympathy whatsoever... He knew very well that offending Xiao Chen would implicate not only Zhang Que, but even him.

"Zhang Que, from this moment on, you are dismissed from Wanbaoge and will never be rehired." Qin Mian's voice was as cold as iron.

"Director Qin! No! I have elderly parents and young children to support, please save me!" Zhang Que cried bitterly and kowtowed desperately.

"Don't rush, it's not over yet."

Qin Mian said coldly.

"Because of your negligence, Wanbaoge has offended an extremely important guest, and you will personally bear all the losses caused by this incident."

This includes, but is not limited to, all potential business losses this distinguished guest may cause to the Qin family and Wanbaoge in the future. The legal department will calculate the specific amount as soon as possible. Even if you have to go bankrupt, you will have to compensate them clearly.

Zhang Que's vision went black, and he almost collapsed to the ground, all his strength drained away... He couldn't afford to pay for those potential business losses, let alone go bankrupt, even if he had to sell his children!

"Furthermore," Qin Mian glanced at Qin Xianglan, receiving a barely perceptible nod, and continued, "you have damaged Wanbaoge's reputation. According to company regulations, you need to accept corresponding punishment as a warning to others."

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and four tall, burly men walked in from outside the door, each with a fierce expression and cold eyes.

"Take him out," Qin Mian said in a deep voice.

"No...no! Director Qin! Miss! I was wrong! Please give me another chance! I'll never do it again!"

Zhang Que struggled desperately, but was held down firmly by four burly men and dragged out. His screams echoed in the hall, shrill and piercing, before gradually fading away outside the door.

A few minutes later, several muffled thuds came from outside the door, followed by an extremely shrill scream. Then, everything returned to silence. Qin Mian walked back to the hall and reported to Qin Xianglan expressionlessly, "Miss, it's all done. Zhang Que's limbs have been broken and dumped on the street outside Wanbaoge. An ambulance has been called. Whether they can be reattached depends on his own fate."

The hall was completely silent. All the guests held their breath, no one dared to speak, and no one even dared to breathe loudly.

They had never seen Qin Xianglan so angry before...

Zhou Hao was terrified.

He quietly took a step back, trying to slip away unnoticed. He knew that Qin Xianglan would definitely punish him next.

"Zhou Hao".

Qin Xianglan's voice suddenly rang out, cold and menacing.

"Miss Qin... Miss Qin..."

Zhou Hao wanted to run, but he knew he couldn't, as Qin Xianglan's people were everywhere.

"This...this is all a misunderstanding. I really didn't know they were your guests. If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to provoke them even if I had a hundred lives..."

"Misunderstanding?" Qin Xianglan looked at him, her gaze icy and piercing. "At my auction, you publicly provoked and humiliated my distinguished guests, forcing them to leave in anger. You call this a misunderstanding? How much guts do you have? You're just an insignificant piece of trash from the Zhou family in the capital. How dare you!"

"I...I really don't know..." Zhou Hao's voice trembled with tears. "Miss Qin, Zhang Que and I are friends. I just...I just wanted to confirm if those two invitations were genuine. I didn't mean anything by it, I really didn't..."

"Are you sure?" Qin Xianglan's voice was even colder.

“It’s…it’s confirmed, the invitation is real…” Zhou Hao lowered his head, not daring to look Qin Xianglan in the eye.

"If it's true, why did you force them to leave?"

Qin Xianglan's voice was filled with terrifying murderous intent, "Just because they dress plainly and drive a beat-up car, you think they don't deserve to be here? You think they can be humiliated by you at will?"

Zhou Hao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found that his throat was blocked, and he couldn't say a word. He could only tremble all over, his face full of despair.

Qin Xianglan stopped looking at him and turned to Qin Mian, saying, "Qin Mian, listen to me! Zhou Hao, and all members of the Zhou family, are permanently banned from stepping into Wanbaoge, including all of Wanbaoge's subsidiaries, and will have no business dealings with the Zhou family."

"Understood, Miss," Qin Mian replied immediately.

"No...no! Miss Qin, you can't do this!" Zhou Hao shouted anxiously, "My Zhou family has spent 30 million at Wanbaoge! I'm a VIP at Wanbaoge! You can't just ban me like that!"

Qin Xianglan gave him a cold look: "Thirty million? Do you know what that guest you forced out meant to my Qin family and Wanbaoge? Don't mention thirty million, even three hundred million or thirty billion wouldn't be worth a single finger of his."

These words exploded like a bombshell in the hall!

All the guests wore expressions of utter shock.

Three hundred million, three billion, and they're not even worth a single finger of that man? Just who is Mr. Xiao, dressed plainly and driving a beat-up car?
Zhou Hao's face instantly drained of color, his body went limp, and he almost collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with despair and fear.

He really couldn't understand how Xiao Chen, who was clearly just a good-for-nothing who lived off a woman, could earn Qin Xianglan's respect so much.
"I'm doomed, my aunt will definitely beat me to death!" Zhou Hao knew that this time, the Zhou family was in even worse shape. (End of Chapter)
