Chapter 635 A Poisonous Scheme
Lei Yuying was very satisfied with everyone's words. She turned to look at Su Yunxi, feeling that she had finally gained the upper hand. "Su Yunxi, did you hear that? Everyone is telling you to get lost. Why aren't you getting lost?!"
In terms of appearance and wealth, Lei Yuying was inferior to Su Yunxi. Now that she could finally compete with Su Yunxi, she felt incredibly exhilarated. Moreover, it was such a grand occasion. If this matter spread, it would undoubtedly be the biggest blow to Su Yunxi.
As for her, Lei Yuying's reputation would also soar.
Su Yunxi's expression was unreadable, but her heart sank. After a moment of thought, she said, "Your Lei family invited my Su family to this banquet."
"I said it's canceled!"
Lei Yuying waved her hand. "Get lost! And let me tell you, from now on, there will be no 'First Goddess' in Jiangnan, only me, Lei Yuying!"
"Chen Xuan, let's go."
Su Yunxi did not want to humiliate herself further. She turned to leave.
"You told us to get lost?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan blocked Su Yunxi's path. He turned and stared at Lei Yuying.
"Oh, is the gigolo trying to stick his neck out? Do you even qualify to speak to me..."
When Lei Yuying saw Chen Xuan step forward, she sneered.
She looked down on Chen Xuan completely.
"Slap!"
Before she could finish speaking, a resounding slap landed forcefully on Lei Yuying's face.
The force of this slap was so great that it almost knocked out the prosthetics on Lei Yuying's face. Her cheek instantly swelled up, blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and it turned purple and blue.
The surrounding area erupted in a stunned uproar.
"Rumor has it that the Su family's live-in son-in-law is very arrogant. It seems to be true!"
"The people he offended before were all minor characters. This time, he's offended the Lei family. This live-in son-in-law is finished!"
"Who says not!"
"The Su family's live-in son-in-law has gotten into big trouble!"
Many people had heard of Chen Xuan's bad reputation. However, in their eyes, Chen Xuan's previous opponents were either weaker than the Su family or of similar strength. The Lei family before them, however, was one of the four great families, an insurmountable power.
Lei Yuying, confirming that the prosthetics on her face were intact, breathed a sigh of relief and yelled hysterically at Chen Xuan, "You live-in son-in-law, how dare you hit me?"
Without hesitation, Chen Xuan slapped her again.
After slapping her, Chen Xuan added, "Why are people nowadays so fond of confirmation? Yes, I dare to hit you!"
"You..."
Lei Yuying almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Just as she was about to speak, Chen Xuan grabbed her collar and began to deliver a barrage of slaps with his large palms.
The onlookers were dumbfounded. No one expected Chen Xuan to be so ruthless. Even the Su family's bodyguards were chasing after Lei Yuying.
However, someone quickly reacted, "Kid, let go of Miss Lei immediately! Otherwise..."
Before that person could finish, Chen Xuan kicked him flying.
Today, he represented the Su family and would not tolerate the slightest insult!
As for the Lei family, Chen Xuan simply didn't take them seriously.
But at this moment, Su Yunxi quickly stopped Chen Xuan and said, "Chen Xuan, that's enough, stop hitting her..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan obediently stopped.
"Yunxi, let's go inside then! As for that vulgar woman, she's already disfigured."
Chen Xuan took Su Yunxi's hand and, under everyone's stunned gaze, swaggered inside.
Su Yunxi glanced at the messy scene around her, her heart sinking. Was it too early to let Chen Xuan represent the Su family?
"Miss, are you alright!"
Lei Yuying's entourage finally reacted and rushed over. They breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Lei Yuying was not in any life-threatening danger.
"That brat, how dare he hit me? Find people for me! I want to kill him!"
Lei Yuying said through gritted teeth, her lips throbbing with pain as she spoke.
"Miss, you should hurry and..."
A security guard glanced at Lei Yuying, then averted his gaze from her face, stammering, unsure how to proceed.
"Go do what?"
Lei Yuying didn't quite understand the situation.
"Go see a doctor," the bodyguard said.
Lei Yuying finally noticed everyone's evasive glances. She quickly pulled out her phone, opened the front camera, and held it up to her face. The next moment, her breath hitched, and she almost fainted.
She saw that Lei Yuying's face was swollen like a pig's head, her eyes skewed, and her nose crooked. She no longer had any of the charm of the "Four Little Famous Dans." Even an ordinary fifty or sixty-year-old woman buying groceries would look better.
In fact, if it were an ordinary person, being slapped by Chen Xuan with that kind of force might not have been a problem. But it was Lei Yuying's excessive plastic surgery and the numerous implants that couldn't withstand it, leading to the deformation.
"I'm going to kill Su Yunxi and that live-in son-in-law! Take me to my brother!"
Lei Yuying said through gritted teeth.
Although Chen Xuan was the one who struck her, in Lei Yuying's mind, it was Su Yunxi who had instigated it.
"Miss Bai, you should go see a doctor first. Leave this matter to me for now!"
Suddenly, a young man emerged from the crowd, his eyes flashing with a cold glint.
This young man was none other than Tang Chen!
"Tang Chen? Alright, then I'll leave it to you! All of you cooperate with him!"
With that, Lei Yuying couldn't wait to go find a doctor, fearing that if she lingered, her face would be ruined.
Tang Chen sneered, "I didn't expect you to be the Su family's live-in son-in-law. It's a pity, today you will become my stepping stone!"
Tang Chen had been pursuing Lei Yuying but had never had an opportunity to express himself. Now, he could not only use the Lei family's influence to step on Chen Xuan but also show off in front of Lei Yuying, killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, Chen Xuan, a mere nobody, becoming the live-in son-in-law of the Su family's goddess also made Tang Chen jealous, especially since the Lei Yuying he pursued was just a plastic surgery freak!
Tang Chen glanced at the young men and women around him and said, "Listen to my arrangements later..."
A poisonous scheme was conceived!
At the same time, Lei Yuying also made a phone call: "Brother, I was beaten by Su Yunxi's live-in son-in-law. My face, which cost over ten million yuan, has been disfigured by the beating."
"How dare he touch my sister? He's looking for death!"
On the other end of the phone, Lei Yuying's brother, Lei Shaotian, slammed the table in anger.
Lei Yuying said resentfully, "Brother, you must avenge me."
"Don't worry, sister, I will avenge you!"
Lei Shaotian stood by the window, holding his phone, his eyes flickering with a greedy cold light, appearing particularly sinister in the vast night.
...
"Yunxi, why do you seem unhappy?"
Chen Xuan observed Su Yunxi, and seeing her looking troubled, he couldn't help but ask.
Su Yunxi said, "I was planning to talk business with the Lei family at today's banquet..."
Chen Xuan touched his nose. "Did I cause you trouble?"
Su Yunxi forced a smile. "It's okay. Lei Shaotian of the Lei family is well-known in the upper circles for being fair and just. This little matter should be fine if explained properly."
"That's good."
Chen Xuan nodded faintly. "Yunxi, what kind of business were you discussing with the Lei family?"
Su Yunxi rubbed her temples. "The new medicine is about to be released, and we're rushing to prepare the stock. We used to get our medicinal materials from the southwestern region."
"But this year, the southwestern region has experienced continuous heavy rain and earthquakes, resulting in a significant reduction in medicinal materials. We can only get medicinal materials from the southeastern region. However, the channels for obtaining medicinal materials from the southeastern region are all controlled by the Lei family. I can only negotiate with the Lei family."
