While he was in prison, Liu Yong had already told him about Shang Qiu's background and also learned about the young man's importance to Jida University.
All of this made Xiao Shuai extremely fearful, as he had almost killed this man's spirit yesterday.
For a spoiled brat of this caliber, ruining himself would be an easy task.
He had even mentally prepared himself for whatever humiliation Shang Qiu might inflict on him while he was outside the door; he would silently endure it.
He had seen plenty of spoiled brats; they generally liked challenges and wouldn't target those who dared not fight back.
But now it seems... he was thinking too simply.
Look at Shang Qiu's expression and his actions.
This is far from a simple playboy.
This guy is clearly a cunning and ruthless wolf in sheep's clothing!
"What are you thinking about, Patriarch Xiao? Come in quickly, sit down and have some tea."
"Ergou, could you please make some tea and bring it over?"
After saying that, Shang Qiu pulled Liu Yong's arm and went directly into the room.
In northern China, there's a custom when drinking: the most distinguished guest sits opposite the person sitting at the table.
The most distinguished people present were Jia Hongtao, Xiao Huohuo, and Wang Yuan.
The moment Xiao Shuai stepped inside, he saw Wang Yuan's icy gaze.
Xiao Shuai was startled; he finally knew how Shang Qiu was going to deal with him.
That's so evil! They actually invited the Wang family!
Yesterday, he not only exposed his Dragonite, but also almost killed his wife and children. Now, what he fears most is that the Wang family's brothers-in-law will come knocking on his door.
Given their personalities, even if I survive, I'll be skinned alive!
Xiao Shuai had originally planned to go into hiding after compensating Shang Qiu, but unexpectedly, Shang Qiu directly called the Wang family over.
What a vicious smiling tiger!
"Wang...Wang Yuan, it was indeed my greed a few years ago that led me to steal the family's Dragonite."
"But I'm doing this so that your sister and nephew can have a better life. Give me some time, I'll settle my wife and children, and I will definitely go and accept the punishment."
Wang Yuan snorted coldly and slammed the cup down on the table.
"For my sister?"
"If it were for my sister's sake, you shouldn't have revealed that Dragonite!"
"My sister took such a big risk for you, but you didn't hide Dragonite properly. You almost killed my sister in order to please Poison King."
"If it weren't for my aunt intervening to protect my sister, she would have already been taken back to the family!"
After speaking, Wang Yuan looked at Xiao Huohuo with a hint of apology.
"Teacher Xiao, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mention my aunt in front of you."
Xiao Huohuo: "......"
You don't need to remind me again!
It's one thing that you accidentally reopened my wounds, but now you're rubbing salt into them?
However, after glancing at his older brother, Xiao Huohuo softened again.
Sigh, since I've already helped, I might as well go all the way.
Thinking of this, Xiao Huohuo waved his hand, pretending not to care.
"It's alright, but let's not talk about the Xiao family's affairs any further."
Make him pay the fine and leave immediately; I feel uncomfortable just seeing him now.
Whenever Xiao Huohuo sees Xiao Shuai and his wife, he is reminded of the days when he was dating Wang Yuan's aunt.
That's why Xiao Huohuo didn't want to go home and why she hated the rules and regulations of her family.
Free love, why should seniority matter!
Wang Yuan was still willing to give Xiao Huohuo face.
It wasn't just because Xiao Huohuo was one of the core figures of the Magic Group, but also because her aunt had held a high position and great power in the family in recent years.
"Since Teacher Xiao has spoken up for you, I'll let you off this time."
"If I find out you're thinking of betraying my sister again, I'll follow the example of our Marxist-Leninist teacher and hunt you down to the death!"
Xiao Shuai nodded repeatedly, showing no dissatisfaction whatsoever with his brother-in-law's reprimand.
He loved his wife from the beginning; he had treated her badly before simply because he felt betrayed.
Since he learned that the son was his own, he has had no other thoughts and only wants to live a good life.
"Young Master Shang, this is a card containing 10 billion. Please keep it safe."
"Dear teachers, please enjoy your meal and drinks. I will take my leave of you."
"Brother, come back and visit often when you have time. Your nephew misses you."
After saying this, Xiao Shuai bowed to his younger brother and turned to leave.
He knew in his heart that without Xiao Huohuo, this incident would have been enough to kill him a thousand times over.
Moreover, he currently has no ability to repay Xiao Huohuo, and he doesn't even dare to possess any more spirits.
Don't worry, Huo Huo, your brother will definitely be there when you're in danger!
Seeing the God of Wealth about to leave, Shang Qiu waved goodbye to the teachers.
"Teachers, I'll go see Patriarch Xiao off first."
"Ergou, prepare a car for Patriarch Xiao!"
As soon as Shang Qiu stepped out, Xiao Huohuo stood up.
He poured a full glass of wine, cupped his hands in greeting to Jia Hongtao and the other teachers, and said:
"Professor Jia, Ji'an University is outstanding. It's amazing that they can produce such polite students! You are truly virtuous!"
In Xiao Huohuo's view, Shang Qiu's treatment of Xiao Shuai was clearly a sign of respect, so he naturally had to reciprocate.
Wang Yuan also stood up and raised his glass to the teachers from Jida University.
"The teachers at Jida University are truly insightful. I thought that apart from my family of dragon riders, no one in the world could have such a high level of expertise in the dragon system."
"I didn't expect that your students could tell at a glance that Dragonite's recovery would require 10 billion!"
Chapter 430 I, Shang, have no ambitions; I just don't live off women.
Outside.
Shang Qiu, who was beaming with joy and thought she was about to pay off her debts, was completely stunned when she heard Wang Yuan's words.
Does treatment cost money?
You should have said so sooner!
If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have tried to subdue this guy...
Now that all the families in Xihai City have been harvested and the Poison King is dead, where am I supposed to get 10 billion?
I can't exactly ask the rich women for help!
However, after a brief period of frustration, Shang Qiu did the math and realized that spending 10 billion to repair Dragonite was not a bad deal.
The League has very strict control over powerful Pokémon. After leaving the student stage, it takes 1000 million to buy the starter Pokémon, let alone powerful pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
Moreover, most of these spirits can't even reach a 1v1 level, and they don't have any decent combat power at all.
These elves without a "V" in their name have a hard time getting into a decent university; they can only play in the mud in the village.
A 4V elf is one in a million.
It would cost 10 billion to restore Dragonite to its 4V rating, which isn't unreasonable.
That's reasonable as it may seem, the problem is he doesn't have the money...
Every time he gets rich, one of his spirits will always appear to punish him.
This resulted in Shang Qiu having billions in loans before he was even twenty years old.
The main theme is bad luck...
No, I need to find a good way to make money!
Shang Qiu suddenly remembered something: Wang Yuan had mentioned during dinner that Xiao Shuai was very good at making money.
Someone who can earn Wang Yuan's praise must have some skills.
Moreover, Froggy said that all the money that Kongcheng Tianwang spent was earned by Teacher Xiao Huohuo.
What does this mean?
This shows that the Xiao family has a gene for making money, and that they are born to make money for others to spend!
Thinking of this, Shang Qiu put her arm around Xiao Shuai's neck, pushed him into the elevator, and pinned him against the wall.
Seeing Shang Qiu's fierce eyes, Xiao Shuai thought of something bad and looked at Shang Qiu with suspicion.
He had seen some scions of powerful families who, after getting tired of playing with women, changed their sexual preferences.
Now that I think about it... Shang Qiu's attitude towards him just now was obviously wrong. He originally thought that Shang Qiu was doing it because of Xiao Huohuo.
But now it seems... there's definitely something fishy going on!
Is he planning to rob me of both money and my virtue?
No, no, he absolutely cannot betray his wife again!
"Young Master Shang, please calm down. I am a married man."
Are you married?
I never expected that Xiao Shuai, who was so ruthless yesterday, would suddenly have a sense of family. Wouldn't he work even harder to make money?
