C1207 Not Qualified
Wu Mingxuan's hand froze in the air. Although he was angry, he still maintained his usual demeanor.
"Friend, do you think I, Wu Mingxuan, am not worthy enough to know you?"
He became more and more disdainful. He saw that Ye Chen was dressed like an ordinary person. In the face of Ye Chen taking the initiative to get to know him, not only was he not flattered, but he also acted like he did not care. He was like a frog in the well who had never seen the world.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat heavy. Everyone was looking at Ye Chen, wanting to know how he would answer.
Although Wu Mingxuan was a gentleman, he was a big shot with a big reputation. A clay person had 30% anger, not to mention Wu Mingxuan who was full of vigor and vigor.
If Ye Chen still did not know how to appreciate favors at this time, they did not doubt that Wu Mingxuan would fall out on the spot.
"You can think of it that way."
Ye Chen didn't even raise his head. His voice was calm and indifferent, as if he was talking about something ordinary.
"Damn, this is going to defy the heavens!"
Tang Tian was frightened. Wu Mingxuan's question had actually given Ye Chen a way out. Who would have thought that he would be so direct and say that Wu Mingxuan really wasn't qualified.
Gong Yuwei was panic-stricken. When she saw Wu Mingxuan's darkening face, she hurriedly blocked in front of Ye Chen.
"Brother Mingxuan, I'm really sorry. Don't be angry. He has always had this kind of temper. You just need to ignore him!"
Hearing Gong Yuwei's words, the anger in Wu Mingxuan's heart became even stronger.
These words sounded like he was responsible for Ye Chen, but in reality, it was completely defending him. Gong Yuwei actually apologized to him for this kid. This was even worse than humiliating him in front of everyone.
Seeing the almost pleading expression on Gong Yuwei's face, Wu Mingxuan still did not flare up. He only snorted coldly and sat back on the sofa.
Gong Yuwei looked at Ye Chen with a reproachful look, but Ye Chen ignored her gaze. He leaned back on the chair and looked up at the ceiling.
"Sister Wan'er, do you see it? It's him. He's so arrogant!"
Hu Qiaoxue had some negative comments about Ye Chen's actions. In her opinion, Ye Chen was a powerless kid, but he still acted disrespectfully in front of these big shots who controlled money and wealth. It was an idiot's way of doing things.
She originally thought that Kong Wan'er would agree with her, but Kong Wan'er, who was beside her, did not have any reaction.
Hu Qiaoxue was very strange. She turned her head and saw Kong Wan'er with a dull face. She had thirty percent fear, thirty percent adoration, and forty percent reverence.
She could clearly see that Kong Wan'er's eyes were aimed at Ye Chen.
"Sister Wan'er, what is wrong with you?"
Hu Qiaoxue looked confused. She thought Kong Wan'er had not reacted in time when she saw Ye Chen being so arrogant and despotic.
"Ah!"
Kong Wan'er only reacted now. Her eyes were still on Ye Chen, but her heart was already in turmoil.
"The person Yuwei likes is actually Young Master Chen? Heavens!"
She previously thought that the brat Hu Qiaoxue spoke of was just a high school student with some ability. Compared to Wu Mingxuan, he was more than a thousand miles away.
But when she saw Ye Chen, she realized how foolish her thoughts were. She secretly rejoiced that she did not say anything bad about Ye Chen before.
How was this a brat? This was an existence that even Heavenly Monarch Tang had to bow and bow to, an existence that only obeyed orders, an existence that could kill Half-Step True Immortal with a flick of his finger in the Jade Wave Palace.
Although Wu Mingxuan was a newly advanced young master, he was only at the same level as Tang Junyi's son, Tang Zongze. Even Heavenly Monarch Tang had to bow his head in front of Ye Chen. How could Wu Mingxuan be compared to him?
Not to mention not giving Wu Mingxuan face, even if Wu Mingxuan was thrown out of the villa, Kong Wan'er would not find it strange at all.
"Xiaoxue, you said the person Yuwei likes is really him?"
Kong Wan'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Seeing that Hu Qiaoxue and the others did not know Ye Chen's identity, she did not dare to speak out and only wanted to confirm it again.
"It's him. He relied on his own ability to not put others in his eyes. He did not know that there is always someone better outside the mountain. I hate him so much!"
Hu Qiaoxue was still in the dark and did not hesitate to criticize Ye Chen.
At this time, Gong Yuwei's father, Gong Liang, also came out. Seeing this, Wu Mingxuan had to suppress his anger. He did not want to lose his status in front of his future father-in-law.
"Mingxuan, I heard that your Heavenly Pavilion is going to build a branch in Liangzhou this year. Even True Monarch sent a few people over, right?"
Gong Liang had a different feeling when he faced Wu Mingxuan. Everyone else noticed it. This was the expression of his father-in-law looking at his son-in-law.
"That's right. I am in charge of this branch, but I am afraid that I am not experienced enough. If there is anything I don't understand, I hope Uncle Gong will not hesitate to teach me."
Wu Mingxuan said modestly and was not too proud of himself.
The rest of the people inhaled a breath of cold air. There were several branch halls that True Monarch was in charge of. They were powerful enough to rival any major sect in the Liangzhou, but Wu Mingxuan was the only one in charge of such a huge amount of resources. His position in the "Heavenly Pavilion" was definitely one of the top.
Compared to him, Hua Feng, Tang Tian, and the others had all walked to the edge. They were still thinking about where to eat every day. Gong Yuwei and the others were still discussing where to go to shop when they were free.
In comparison, Wu Mingxuan was the true elite. The young elites only felt ashamed of themselves.
"Big Brother Mingxuan is really amazing!"
Gong Yuwei was also shocked. She secretly sized up Ye Chen and found that Ye Chen was eating with his head down. He did not say anything, and there was no shocked expression on his face. She could not help but feel discouraged.
"Is this not enough to make him feel threatened?"
She also thought that Ye Chen would have some motivation when he heard that other people were so outstanding. He would put his mind on the future so that he could close the gap between them and her family. But looking at Ye Chen, he did not seem to care at all.
"Sigh, maybe dad is right. Deng Chen is really not a good choice!"
She sighed in her heart and was very distressed. Thinking of Ye Chen's disdainful attitude towards her, she began to doubt her own choice.
Deng Ya looked at Wu Mingxuan with shining eyes. Whether it was knowledge, character, wealth, or status in terms of status, he was a good son-in-law. Although he was not as good as Immortal Master Ye, he was still one in a million.
Although Gong Liang did not show any expression, he also had the same thought in his heart.
"Looks like I need to find an opportunity to greet Mingxuan's parents and confirm the relationship between the two of them. Then everything will be much easier!"
Thinking up to this point, his words had a hidden meaning. "Mingxuan, my Yuwei's ambition is the Gold Core. If you don't mind, find some time to teach her. She will definitely be able to help you a lot in the future. It will be more useful than an old man like me."
How could Wu Mingxuan not hear the implied meaning of Gong Liang's words? He revealed a happy expression and nodded repeatedly. "Uncle Gong is right!"
Only then did Gong Liang look away with satisfaction and finally landed on Ye Chen. Seeing Ye Chen lower his head to eat, he frowned and his voice became heavier.
