Ye Wenchen and the others felt wholly unsatisfied. If they were given the other villa first, they wouldn't have felt like this. But driving them away from the Bayview Pavilion after they had just moved in was really smacking at their faces.


They arrived at another area with their luggage and were planning to move in, but the service person's phone rang at this moment. The person answered the call then apologized to them with a smile, "We're really sorry. Dear guests, someone has already taken the 3rd villa zone. Please go to the 4th villa zone."


"What?"


If one time wasn't enough already, they were being forced out again.


Their expressions turned awful.


"Do you know who I am?"


Ye Wenchen couldn't bear it anymore and snapped at the attendant, "We're Brother Zhong's guests. He told us to come over here."


The attendant felt wronged, "Brother Zhong was the one who called just now, saying that someone is moving into the 3rd villa so I should send you to the 4th one."


Eh….


Ye Wenchen's face turned red, wishing he could find a hole to jump in then stay there forever. He had truly lost face today.


The others also felt awkward.


"Young Master Ye, let's go to the 4th villa zone, okay? As they say, the guests must follow the host's plans."


Lin Shu provided a way to let his brother escape this awkward moment.


"Yes. Let's go there, okay?"


Since they had already arrived, they couldn't just leave in a fit. Even if they did leave, they didn't have any place to go to.


"Alright, let's first go to the 4th villa area then."


"Wait a minute. Dandan went to the toilet so let's wait for her…"


Before Cheng Lingsu could finish speaking, Li Dan came running over, "I saw Jiang Xiu go towards the Bayview Pavilion just now. He couldn't have gone there to find us, right?"


Ye Wenchen creased his brows. It'd be embarrassing if Jiang Xiu went there to look for them. "You didn't tell him that we're changing our rooms?"


"I already told him." Cheng Lingsu answered with astonishment.


"Maybe he didn't understand it."


"That idiot," scolded Ye Wenchen.


"Leave him alone. It's inconvenient for us with the luggage so let's check in first. We'll go over there to take a look at the drama later on."


As they left the area, a group entered the 3rd villa zone.


"So it was him, no wonder."


"Who?" asked Lin Shu.


"Qingshui's Wen Zuolin."


Ye Wenchen grabbed the chance and yelled out, "Uncle Wen!"


Wen Zuoling stopped and looked at the refined youth in front of him. He felt that this youth looked familiar but couldn't remember who it was and surmised that it was an acquaintance. "You are?"


"Ye Wenchen, Deputy Mayor Ye's son."


"Ohh!"


Wen Zuoling suddenly recalled it and said politely, "So it's you, Young Master Ye. It's been a long time. Did you come here to look at the tides?"


The students around Ye Wenchen were excited again. Young Master Ye is really amazing that even Wen Zuolin is acting so politely.


"Yes. Did Uncle Wen also come here to watch the tides?"


As Mr. Jiang arrived to pay respects to the Wang family, many core people of Jiang City were coming over as well. It wasn't just to give face to Mr. Jiang but instead to also give face to the Wang family.


"I'm not that refined like Young Master Ye. A grand occasion is going to happen here today. This Wen rushed here to attend it."


"A grand occasion?"


Wen Zuolin revealed a solemn face, "Mr. Jiang will be paying respects to Mr. Wang when the river tides rise today."


The students became rattled. They knew about Mr. Jiang, and Mr. Wang's fame was even higher as it involved a family which had towered over Jiangnan for 200 years.


"It's indeed a grand occasion then…" Ye Wenchen's eyes filled with obsession since he also yearned to reach such a rank.


The other students' interest was also piqued.


"Can we come to see it?"


Wen Zuolin muttered to himself, "According to the norm, it'd be difficult to do that. However, it should be fine to watch from a distance."


"Alright…"


Everyone felt glad that they could see Mr. Jiang as well as Jiangnan's Mr. Wang. Even Cheng Lingsu's face was flushed from anticipation.


"We'll check in first then!"


They felt giddy about getting the chance to see the process of paying respects and forgot about the displeasure from being driven out.


"Come to the Bayview Platform after checking in, okay?"


"Okay. Thank you, Uncle Wen."


This was a rare occasion. Many people from Jiang City were rushing over to give face to Mr. Jiang, so they were planning to go there early and find a nice spot to watch the process.


Cheng Lingsu said, "Can you help me check-in? I have something to do."


"What?" Ouyang Qian asked, "You aren't going to find that idiot Jiang Xiu, right? It's unrelated to us if he loses face."


Cheng Linsu said, "I was the one who invited him."


"Okay then. We'll accompany you."


"The boys can handle the check-in."


Cheng Lingsu thought of refusing her, but it wouldn't have looked good to reject her best friends. In the end, she went over to the Bayview Pavilion with Ouyang Qian and Li Dan. Ouyang Qian still felt indignant that they were driven away from such a superb region.


"Isn't that Jiang Xiu?"


What came into their view was an attendant accompanying him towards this villa.


"Jiang…"


She was about to call out but stopped when the attendant opened the villa door and handed the key to Jiang Xiu, acting very politely. "Mister, this is the Bayview Pavilion. Please call us if you need anything, we'll be available 24/7."


"Alright, I'll be bothering you then."


The attendant bowed slightly before leaving.


"What's happening?"


"How come Jiang Xiu entered inside?"


Looking at the attendant come over, Cheng Lingsu asked, "Little brother, why did you let that person enter the Bayview Pavilion…"


The waiter smiled courteously, "He's the guest who booked it."


"What?"


Cheng Lingsu and the other girls cried out in alarm, not daring to believe it. "Little brother, you didn't make a mistake, right?"


"No."


He left after saying this. The Big Boss had specially warned him that he had to act very courteously with this guest, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything.


"Not a mistake…"


"He drove us out and then let Jiang Xiu live there. Did Brother Zhong go mad or what? Does he think Jiang Xiu is more important than Young Master Ye?" Ouyang Qian's bosom heaved up and down in rage.


"Ridiculous!"


Cheng Lingsu also felt puzzled, her brows locking up together. She felt this entire matter was strange. During lunch, Zhong Likan's attitude towards Jiang Xiu was also something to think about, and now, Jiang Xiu was given the Bayview Pavilion to live in.


"Let's go and ask him."


Cheng Lingsu wanted to know what tricks Jiang Xiu had used.


She strode towards the villa at a fast pace which Ouyang Qian and Li Dan couldn't keep up with even while running. She repeatedly pressed the doorbell. Jiang Xiu opened the door and felt astonished after seeing her.


He wondered why she had come here.


"Is this the villa you mentioned to me?" Cheng Lingsu questioned.


"Yes!"


"Explain it to me!" Cheng Lingsu's pupils locked onto his face as if he had committed a huge crime. "Your family is just an ordinary family. Uncle and Aunt are fruit-sellers. Why did they give you such a high-class villa?"


"Right!" Ouyang Qian and Li Dan rushed over.


"You didn't trick Brother Zhong, right? Otherwise, this Bayview Pavilion would've been ours, not yours."


"Tell me!"


Jiang Xiu's gaze fell on her pretty face. It felt really familiar to him. Each time he saw this face, he would remember Lingran's every frown and smile. But he understood, the little sister was the little sister, and the elder sister was the elder sister. He joked, "Why should this Deity explain it to you? Who are you to me?"


Cheng Lingsu's complexion went cold as she clenched her teeth. Stop acting like you're confused when you know the relation between us. I'm not free from you until the engagement is removed.



"Are you going to tell me or not?"


"Alright. This Deity will satisfy you so listen well."


"At Belden, this Deity slapped the four young masters."


"At the Heavenly Dao Arena, this Deity defeated Lin Jinnan, Uncle Fu and killed Lin Zhenbei."


"This Deity even barged into the Wang family and slaughtered 30 people!"


"Suppressing all the other heroes and making them bow down…"


Each sentence filled with power, his aura increasing with each revelation, seeming like the descent of a battle god.
