Chapter 6 - 6 006, Bar Disturbance
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although Huo Jingshen, the eldest grandson of the Huo family, is his cousin, Xing Yuyun has barely had any contact with him.
He only knew that he emigrated to Y Country with his second uncle and aunt at a young age. After his parents passed away, Huo Jingshen returned home when the old man from the Huo family was suddenly diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer three months ago.
The Huo family, being the first of Nancheng’s ‘Four Great Aristocratic Families’, had established an unshakeable foundation through the military and political achievements of their forefathers.
The old man from the Huo family delved into business at an early age, initially focusing on real estate. With the rapid expansion of their business, Huo Yuan Group has now become the leading enterprise in Nancheng’s commercial sector, covering not only real estate and construction, but also technology, finance, investment, and so on.
It’s safe to say, Huo family has a stake in every profitable industry and in recent years. The old man has even maintained a stable position on the Forbes Rich List.
Now, although the Huo family has three grandsons, the old man has maintained sole control of the Huo Yuan Group for many years. Therefore, the purpose of Huo Jingshen’s sudden return to the country is as clear as Sima Zhao’s ambition, well known to everyone.
With this in mind, Xing Yuyun naturally had his reservations towards his cousin.
His eyebrows furrowed, “Big brother, how is Wanwan’s cellphone with you?”
“Wanwan?” The mature man’s deep and mellow voice made it sound intimate when he uttered these two syllables.
Xing Yuyun was disgruntled listening to this, “Yes, Wanwan she…she…”
He struggled to put it in words.
Because he didn’t know how to introduce his complex relationship with Su Wanwan to a cousin he wasn’t familiar with.
“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. I’m busy.”
By the time Xing Yuyun snapped back to reality, the call was already disconnected.

Late at night around 10 o’clock, at the bar.
Deafening heavy metal music began to play and under the lights, young men and women were swinging their bodies wildly and getting lost in the dance floor.
In a booth in the corner, Su Wanwan picked up a bottle of beer and chugged it down.
Soon, the table was filled with empty beer bottles.
As she picked up another new bottle of beer…
“Su Wanwan!”
Su Wanwan looked up, her beautiful eyes squinting as if she was trying to identify the person.
“Su Wanwan, don’t you recognize me?” Huo Zhexi sat across her, smiling, “I’m Huo Zhexi. A few years ago, Yuyun and I both paid a New Year visit to grandfather Su. We met then, don’t you remember?”
Despite his enthusiasm, Su Wanwan still reacted coldly. Even after hearing his words, she didn’t have any response and just continued to drink heavily.
Huo Zhexi picked up a bottle of beer and tried to clink glasses with her, “I heard you went to study abroad in Los Angeles. It’s been two years, hasn’t it? Why didn’t you say a word when you suddenly returned to the country…”
“Get lost!”
Huo Zhexi’s smile froze on his face at Su Wanwan’s words.
Damn it.
There were so many women in Nancheng trying to get close to him, but he rejected them all. He took the initiative to speak to her, and she actually had the audacity to ask him to leave?
He was the grandson of Huo Yuanshan, Nancheng’s richest man!
The third young master of the esteemed Huo family!
He was accompanied by two friends today, both of whom were notable young masters of Nancheng. If word got out about this, how would he ever be able to show his face in the circle again?
Furious, Huo Zhexi slammed the bottle down, “Say that again if you dare!”
“Get lost!”
Huo Zhexi: “…”
Damn it, she really dared to say it again?
“Did I hear it wrong, Zhexi? She told you to get lost, haha.”
“Zhexi, can you handle it?”
“Is there really a sister that even the young master Huo can’t handle?”
“Today, I have truly seen something new, hahaha.”
“…”
His two friends mocked him back and forth, making it impossible for Huo Zhexi to save face.
He violently gripped Su Wanwan’s wrist, “B*tch, apologize to me!”
Su Wanwan put down her beer and looked at him out of the corner of her eyes.
She had always been pretty, and under the bizarre lighting of the bar, her face seemed even more delicate, her eyes shimmering. The peach blossom birthmark at the corner added a captivating charm.
The delicate feel of her hand was like fat that had solidified, causing Huo Zhexi’s heart to flutter and his tone to soften a bit, “Su Wanwan, actually, I know why you’re drinking here. Is it because Xing Yuyun dumped you? How about this, since that’s the case, why don’t you be with me? I guarantee that the Su family will not dare to look down on you anymore, and Su Yanyan will not…”
He should not have mentioned “Su Yanyan”, as soon as he did, Su Wanwan managed to find a switch. Suddenly, she swung the bottle in her hand and aimed it straight at his forehead.
With a “clang”, the bar was thrown into chaos.

Late at night, a shrill phone ring echoed through the Huo family villa.
Before long, the sound of “clanging” echoed from downstairs and it only got louder, showing no signs of stopping.
Huo Jingshen went downstairs from the second floor and along the way, he could hear the roar filled with vigor.
Honestly, it didn’t sound like an old man suffering from cancer at all.
“Alright, Yuanshan, look, you’ve woken up Ashen!” Seeing Huo Jingshen coming downstairs, old Mrs. Huo quickly pulled her husband.
“Bang!”
The old man of the Huo family put the jade teapot back on the tea table heavily and took a deep breath.
The servants and drivers were all standing on the side of the living room, their faces tense. As for the floor, it was covered in shattered tea cups, water stains, and tea leaves…
