Standing in front of Tian Yongchang was a young, wealthy young master dressed in luxurious white mink.
His entire being exuded an aura of arrogance and overwhelming wealth.
Tian Guanyu!
He was the true backer Cui Hao had spoken of, and furthermore, the backer of that deputy director, Cui Pengyuan.
In Bocheng, and even the broader Bozhou region, or indeed the entire Northern Province, Tian Guanyu was a renowned young master.
This was not only because his uncle was the top official, but also because he was a member of the Tian family.
The Tian family also needed to eat and drink, and someone naturally had to manage the business side of things. He was the son of the person who openly managed the Tian family’s business.
With the Tian family’s strength, they could be considered the foremost wealthy family and aristocratic household in the Northern Province.
With so many backers, Tian Guanyu’s level of arrogance was entirely predictable.
He had even publicly slapped the second in command of Bozhou City in the face!
As for a small place like Bocheng County, whenever Tian Guanyu visited, the county’s top official would personally go to welcome him, prepare a banquet, and host a dinner in his honour.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Tian Guanyu was the number one young master in the Northern Province.
“Guanyu, there is a matter that is not very convenient for me to handle. Since you happen to be going to Bocheng, why do you not help me take care of it first?” Tian Yongchang suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Because it was said that Luo Wuji was not very old, and he was almost fifty, he certainly would have nothing to say to a young person, nor could they communicate on the same level.
But since Zhao Lixin had already given the order, he had no choice but to comply. After all, no matter how powerful Tian Yongchang was, he could not afford to offend the top official of the Northern Province.
“What is the matter?” Tian Guanyu handed a cigar to Tian Yongchang.
“A big shot has come to Bocheng!” Tian Yongchang sighed.
“A big shot? How big?” Tian Guanyu asked in confusion.
“Not to mention you and me, this is someone even the top official of the Northern Province has to curry favour with. No one in the Northern Province can afford to offend him, not even the Tian family!” Tian Yongchang made this point perfectly clear.
“Even the Tian family cannot afford to offend him?” Tian Guanyu frowned. Just how big of a figure was this?
“When you go there, keep a low profile. If you see any suspicious young man, interact with him properly. Do not expose his identity. Just act like you met by chance and want to make friends. If we can win over this big shot, then perhaps the Tian family can reach a higher level in the future!” Tian Yongchang naturally had his own plans.
If he could win over this big shot, it would not be a problem even if he replaced Zhao Lixin. After all, Zhao Lixin refused to tell him the other party’s phone number precisely to guard against this.
But Tian Yongchang was not stupid. If he went himself, Zhao Lixin would probably arrive shortly after. Therefore, he sent Tian Guanyu there first. Such a big shot would have an extraordinary bearing, and he would definitely be recognisable at a glance.
Tian Yongchang’s abacus was ringing loudly with his clever calculations.
“Alright, Uncle, just leave this matter to me. If all else fails, I will host a banquet in Bocheng and invite all the young people in the city to attend. I will definitely find the person for you and get the job done!” Tian Guanyu patted his chest and guaranteed.
Anyway, some of his lackeys had reportedly suffered a setback in Bocheng at the hands of a wealthy young master. He wanted to go and get revenge for these lackeys, which would conveniently kill two birds with one stone.
“By the way, Uncle, that big shot you mentioned, he is not a wealthy young master, is he?” Tian Guanyu suddenly asked.
After all, there should not be a misunderstanding. What if the person was indeed that wealthy young master? That would ruin everything.
“Hehe, how could such a big shot be some broken wealthy young master?”
“You are underestimating him too much. How can a wealthy young master compare to him? He is not even fit to carry his shoes!” Tian Yongchang did not know why Tian Guanyu would ask this, but he explained it anyway.
“Good, it is good that he is not a wealthy young master.” Hearing Tian Yongchang say this, Tian Guanyu immediately felt relieved.
As for that wealthy young master, since he dared to make his people suffer a loss, he would definitely not let him off!
Tian Guanyu gathered a few people, then drove a stretched Lincoln, heading straight for Bocheng.
This time, he wanted everyone in Bocheng to know what the consequences would be for offending him, Tian Guanyu.
He would also let that wealthy young master know that offending him, Tian Guanyu, was the biggest mistake the other party would ever make in his life.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Luo Chen went to the Jinxiu Shanhe Restaurant in Bocheng again in the evening.
Yesterday’s incident did not seem to have a major impact.
There were still many people coming to eat here, and Tian Qiqi had launched a twenty per cent discount promotion.
Seeing Luo Chen arrive, Tang Xin no longer had the enthusiasm she showed yesterday. When she looked at Luo Chen, her eyes even carried a cold and arrogant expression.
After all, she had now latched onto the big tree of the Tian family, so what did a mere wealthy young master count for?
Moreover, she was about to become a cultivator, so how could she still pay attention to an ordinary person like Luo Chen?
After seeing the magical abilities of the Tian family’s old matriarch last night, she felt that this was a turning point in her life. If she also possessed such abilities, then these so-called wealthy young masters would probably have to watch her mood.
“Where is Qiqi?” Luo Chen asked Tang Xin.
But Tang Xin simply turned her head away, not even wanting to speak to Luo Chen. With her current status, was Luo Chen even worthy of speaking to her?
Luo Chen did not mind. Since Tang Xin ignored him, he prepared to ask a waiter instead.
As a result, Tian Qiqi had already run out from the kitchen.
“Brother Luo,” Tian Qiqi called out sweetly.
There was a hint of happiness in her eyes. It seemed her grandmother had not lied to her, and she had not gone to cause trouble for Brother Luo last night.
Seeing that Luo Chen was safe and sound, Tian Qiqi’s suspended heart finally settled down.
“You do not always need to go and help out. At your age, you should go shopping more and buy some cosmetics. Do not let a pretty face turn into that of a haggard housewife,” Luo Chen teased.
After all, Tian Qiqi was in the prime of her youth. A girl of this age should not always be in the kitchen getting smoked by oil fumes.
Moreover, Luo Chen viewed Tian Qiqi like a little sister next door, so he naturally felt a sense of affection.
“It does not matter, Brother Luo.” Hearing this, a trace of gloom inevitably flashed across Tian Qiqi’s face.
Because in not too long, she would have to leave.
“By the way, Brother Luo, please sit down.” Tian Qiqi pulled Luo Chen to sit down, then ran into the kitchen. Not long after, she pushed out a food trolley.
Then, plate after plate of exquisite food was brought to the table by Tian Qiqi.
“Brother Luo, I made all of these myself. Please taste them and see if they are good,” Tian Qiqi said with a slightly blushing face, showing a hint of shyness.
However, just as Luo Chen was about to pick up his chopsticks.
A group of people barged in carelessly.
“Young Master Tian, it is him!”
