The live stream of the fan meet was also going crazy with comments.
[Hahaha, Young Master Long's face has gone completely dark. Eldest Young Master Qi is deliberately rubbing salt in the wound!]
[As expected of the number one prodigy in the capital circle. If it were anyone else, who would dare to openly provoke Young Master Long to his face like this!]
[Why do I find them kind of shippable? What's going on?]
[Let's not, both big shots have fiancées!]
[Exactly, shipping everything will get you killed sooner or later!]
Noticing the meaningful glances of the people around them, Long Yuan's eyes filled with displeasure. He finally spoke up, "In broad daylight, Young Master Qi, please refrain from saying things that might cause misunderstandings."
Young Master Qi smiled leisurely, "My apologies, I thought Young Master Long liked Qi Yue. It seems I misunderstood. However, if Young Master Long needs to see anyone from my Qi family in the future, just let me know. There's no need to sneakily send people to kidnap them."
Long Yuan: "..."
He really hated the way Qi Huan spoke—so soft and gentle, yet capable of making someone choke on their own anger!
This Qi Huan was a natural counter to his bad temper!
[Young Master Qi's words have a lot of hidden meaning. Kidnap? Not only is Young Master Long bent, but he's also into forced love?]
[It's obvious that Young Master Long can't out-argue Eldest Young Master Qi!]
[Hahaha, Eldest Young Master Qi is famous in the circle for hiding a knife behind his smile, killing without leaving a trace!]
Unwilling to endure further humiliation, Long Yuan shifted his gaze to Qi Huan's legs and sneered, "I was just worried that it would be inconvenient for you since your legs are crippled, Young Master Qi, so I thought I shouldn't bother you."
Qi Huan did not show any anger at his legs being used as a point of attack. He continued to smile, "I'm afraid Young Master Long's worries are superfluous. My legs won't stay crippled forever, so I'm afraid Young Master Long won't be able to shake off the title of eternal second place for the rest of his life."
"If Young Master Long really has a complex about it, you could consider moving your entire family to Myanmar. After all, your Long family is much freer and more unrestrained over there than in the country."
"If you move too slowly, I'm afraid you might accidentally end up like your second uncle, all going to prison to keep him company and eat prison food."
Long Yuan's eyes turned chillingly cold.
Chairman Yu said with an awkward expression, "Young Master Qi, you've gone too far with your words. This is a public occasion; please mind your manners when speaking."
Qi Huan smiled without a hint of guilt, "Didn't Young Master Long attack my legs first? Ever since my legs were crippled, my father has said that my mental state has had some issues. My mind might be a bit twisted, and I can't bear to hear stimulating words. Because of this, he even went to the trouble of finding a famous foreign psychiatrist to treat me."
"See, Young Master Long's words provoked me. What I just said might have been a bit extreme, but I hope Young Master Long, as an able-bodied person, won't mind too much."
"Otherwise, it would make me mistakenly believe that the more Young Master Long cares about something, the more he has to bring it up."
"For example, Young Master Long insisting on mentioning my crippled legs makes me feel like he thinks that since my legs are crippled, he, who has been suppressed by me for years, finally has a chance to stand up."
Chairman Yu dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
Long Yuan, on the other hand, was full of fury but didn't know how to retort.
[Oh my god! Eldest Young Master Qi looks like such a gentle and elegant noble young master, but his words are truly so lethal!]
[And he speaks so gently! You can't see any temper in him at all!]
[If you didn't listen to his voice and only looked at his face, you would think he was chatting about some happy gossip with his good brother!]
Long Yuan took a deep breath. "Qi Huan, whether your legs can recover depends on Jiang Youli's treatment."
Speaking of this, he paused, lowered his voice, and said deeply, "I'm just afraid she won't have the chance to complete the treatment."
In an instant, Qi Huan's smile completely vanished. His pitch-black eyes were filled with overwhelming killing intent. "With your abilities, you are not worthy of threatening her."
After saying that, Qi Huan ignored Long Yuan and signaled Cheng Jing to push him up to the second floor.
The second floor consisted of open-style private rooms decorated in a rustic, pastoral style.
Cheng Jing pushed Qi Huan's wheelchair to the door of the pre-booked Auspicious private room.
Just then—
"Brother Huan!"
Qi An'an's enthusiastic voice rang out from the doorway of the neighboring Wealth and Prosperity private room.
She waved enthusiastically at Qi Huan, then turned to her close friends and said, "I'm going over to chat with Brother Huan for a bit." After that, she walked over from her private room, rested both hands on the open windowsill of the Auspicious private room, and asked eagerly, "Brother Huan, it's one thing if Cousin-in-law didn't come as Starlight Entertainment's representative, but why didn't she come with you either?"
Qi Huan entered the private room, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and smiled faintly, "Your Cousin-in-law is here. She just went upstairs to prepare first before coming down."
"Oh~" Qi An'an understood. She knew it, how could Cousin-in-law run away at the last minute!
As long as she came, it was fine!
Otherwise, Li Zixuan, the guy who had made a bet with Cousin-in-law, kept saying in the group chat that Cousin-in-law was afraid of Long Yuan and backed out, not daring to come!
"Brother Huan, let me tell you, the people in the other private rooms are all familiar faces."
"Zhou Yi from the Zhou family."
"The two brothers, Qi Feifan and Qi Xiuyuan, are also here."
"And the siblings from the Duan family, Duan Shuheng and Duan Jinghan, are both here too."
Qi An'an said, "I suppose, apart from Zhou Yi, everyone else came with the mindset of watching a good show. Who among the wealthy families in the capital circle doesn't know that Cousin-in-law offended the Long family, and the Long family plans to comprehensively sanction the Jiang family? So today's battle for the copyright of Ambition of the Blue Clouds is the first show of strength Long Yuan wants to give Cousin-in-law."
"If Cousin-in-law didn't show up today, she would be laughed at by all the wealthy families in the capital circle."
Hearing this, Qi Huan smiled faintly and said, "Such a lively occasion, and yet Qi Shaoxiong and Qi Feixue didn't come."
Speaking of this, Qi An'an had more to say: "I heard that after Qi Feixue went missing for two days, something went wrong with her body. Once night falls, she is in unbearable pain. Even doctors can't find the problem, and she's still lying in the hospital right now. So they probably aren't in the mood to join the fun today."
Qi Huan understood. This meant the poison Little Li'er planted in Qi Feixue's body was taking effect.
In the Abundant Harvest private room, Duan Shuheng looked at her foolish brother sitting opposite her, looking depressed. "Alright, you were the one who begged me to bring you here, so stop pulling a long face at me. Qi Huan is already here. Do you really think Jiang Youli won't show up?"
Hearing these words, Duan Jinghan finally perked up. His eyes stared intently at the scene on the first floor, deeply afraid of missing Jiang Youli's arrival.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before Jiang Youli appeared on the first floor.
Duan Jinghan's eyes lit up, and he stood straight up.
Seeing her foolish brother's reaction, Duan Shuheng silently muttered in her heart, "What a massive idiot."
"Jiang Youli actually dared to come." Chairman Yu, feeling slapped in the face, sneaked a glance at Long Yuan. "She must have learned that Qi Huan came to back her up and felt that with a supporter, she could snatch it from us. She doesn't even look at the fact that Eldest Young Master Qi can barely protect himself in the Qi family right now. How much money would he be willing to throw at her?"
Long Yuan's hand, which was rubbing the ring on his thumb, paused, and his eyes grew even colder.
He sneered coldly, "Overestimating her own capabilities."
Suddenly, Jiang Youli looked at Long Yuan. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she raised her hand and, with an icy gaze, made a slicing motion across her own neck.
"Is she...?!"
"Openly provoking Young Master Long?!"
"She's so gutsy! No one in the entire capital circle dares to challenge Young Master Long's authority like this! Even Young Master Qi was only making veiled jabs just now!"
