Chapter 691: His Name Is Tang Hao
“I’m really sorry!” The middle-aged man apologized again.
Then, a few more people stepped out to apologize. They were all the women’s fathers.
Ling Mingshan’s face turned somewhat ashen out of anger.
How dare those women publicly insult his daughter at her birthday party?
However, those women were those men’s daughters, and they had already apologized. He could only swallow his anger.
The other members of the Ling family looked unpleasant as well.
“Forget it!” Ling Mingshan grunted angrily.
Ling Wei frowned. She was a little angry as well.
Those women were daughters of rich families just like her, and they knew each other. However, they were arrogant and had never had a good relationship with Ling Wei. They did not see each other eye to eye.
Ling Wei glared disdainfully at them.
“Why did you invite them, Father?” She whispered.
“I had to!” Ling Mingshan said helplessly.
The Ling family had a lot of connections, and they sent out a lot of invitations. Sometimes, if he invited a person, he had to invite another, in case those he did not invite thought that Ling Mingshan looked down upon them.
Such relationships were the most complicated.
“Pah! It’s not like I want to come anyway!”
“Exactly! What’s the point of coming?”
Those women sneered and looked at Ling Wei with ridicule and arrogance.
They did not like Ling Wei and were envious of her.
Not only was she beautiful and attractive, but she was also capable at work. The elders had nothing but praise for her.
That had been the case, even after she had a failed marriage.
In fact, more people liked her after that. Those men were head over heels for her.
They thought, ‘What’s so special about her? She only has a beautiful face and a few more ounces of fat on her chest!
‘Hmph! So what if she’s a CEO of a corporation and a rising star in the business world? She’s just a seductress that brings bad luck to her man!’
“You…” Ling Wei’s face was red with anger.
Those people had ruined the happy occasion.
The women became more arrogant when they saw Ling Wei’s reaction.
Ling Mingshan’s expression became darker. Just as he was about to scold them, he heard a cold voice from outside. “Since you don’t want to be here, then get lost!”
In an instant, Ling Mingshan was surprised and turned his head to look.
Ling Wei was even more surprised. Dazedly, she turned around and looked at the approaching figure.
The other people were all stunned.
‘What? Where did this guy come from? How could he be so arrogant? He’s a guest here, but he’s telling other people to get lost!’
The people turned their heads and looked in that direction.
Many people were shocked once more when they saw that figure more clearly. However, some people remained confused.
The guests tonight were from Provincial City, other cities in Province Z, and even surrounding provinces. Some of the guests recognized the approaching figure, but some did not.
“Who the hell are you?”
One of the women immediately shrieked, “Who do you think you are to tell me to get lost?”
“Ha! Where did this kid come from? Do you want to stand up for her? Are you her boy toy?”
Tang Hao walked over with a cold expression.
“Try saying that again!” He said coldly as he glared at them.
The women were startled by his imposing manner, but they quickly found their courage again.
“I’ll say it again then. Why should I be afraid of you?” The woman in the middle shrieked and glared at Tang Hao arrogantly.
Tang Hao raised his hand and slapped her.
The woman screamed in agony and fell backward.
She covered her face and could not believe what had just happened.
The others were also stunned, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
“Get lost!”
Tang Hao reprimanded.
“You… you dare hit me?” The woman shrieked, “Dad, he hit me! Kill him!”
“Calm down, Yaoyao!” A middle-aged man hurried over and helped her up. “Are you OK?”
“How can I be OK? Look, my face is swelling up. My face is ruined!” The woman roared.
The man looked at her, and his expression darkened. He glared at Tang Hao and shouted, “Which family are you from? How dare you hit my daughter? Tell me your name! I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Tang Hao sneered, “Teach me a lesson? How boastful! You’re in no position to teach me a lesson!”
The man immediately laughed as if he had heard a big joke.
“How arrogant can this kid be? How dare he talk to me like that? He doesn’t know what’s coming to him!” He said to the people around him.
However, not many people in the crowd laughed along with him. Many people had strange expressions.
“Um… Boss Deng, you’re really in no position to teach that person a lesson! I would advise you to apologize. Otherwise… you’ll be in big trouble!”
At that moment, someone came up and whispered in his ear.
Boss Deng was instantly stunned.
“He… who is he?” He stuttered, realizing that something was wrong.
“His name is Tang Hao, the chairman of Haotian Group. No one in Province Z is more well-connected than him!”
Boss Deng gasped and nearly cursed out loud.
That was a big shot!
He wiped his cold sweat and felt terrified.
“Boss… Boss Tang! I’m sorry! I was blind!” As he said that, he bowed deeply to Tang Hao.
The woman called Yaoyao stood frozen on the spot, stunned.
‘That guy is actually Haotian’s boss, and he even stood up for that b*tch?’
She found it hard to believe, and a strong sense of jealousy welled up in her heart.
“What’s so good about that b*tch? She’s just a second-hand woman and a jinx. Why do all you idiots like her that much?” She covered her red and swollen face and said sharply.
Tang Hao’s gaze turned cold, and he gave her a backhand slap.
Then, he flicked his wrist and said coldly, “Jinx? Second-hand woman? I don’t think you know how the Song family fell from grace! Let me tell you now…
“I brought down the Song family because she didn’t want to marry. If any of you throw any more baseless accusations, I’m not going to be civil!”
When everyone heard that, they were immediately dumbfounded.
‘F*ck! He must be joking!
‘The Song family was brought down by that guy? That’s a very big boast!
‘That was the Song family! If he wanted to bring it down, he would need help from the Higher-Ups! Tang Hao might be very powerful in Province Z, but was he influential in the Capital too?’
They wanted to laugh, but they could not.
They thought about it carefully and realized that Tang Hao might be speaking the truth.
Otherwise, why would the Song family suddenly fall from grace, and on the day of the wedding too?
Also, why would Tang Hao be so influential in Province Z? It must be because he had connections in the Capital!
Thinking about that, they became terrified.
Indeed, they could not afford to lay a finger of Tang Hao.
Boss Deng and his daughter, as well as the other women, were so scared that their faces turned pale and their bodies were trembling.
