Su Tong glanced at Xiao Yang across the table and realized that the middle-aged man actually looked somewhat like Xiao Yang.
She couldn't help but take a closer look at the middle-aged man. Once she looked at him, she couldn't even notice his appearance anymore, because there was a kind of light flashing in his eyes that made Su Tong feel scared, like a sudden spark. Deep down, however, there was still that sinister look, which made Su Tong feel a chilling coldness rise up from her spine. Then she heard Xiao Yang put the cup down heavily on the table and call out, his smile completely gone, "Third Uncle."
Xiao Feihuang, the third son of Xiao Weigong, is only 7 years younger than his older brother Xiao Feijun, who is currently the mayor of C municipality and will be transferred back to the capital in the second half of this year to compete for the highest position. However, he is only the deputy director of the propaganda department of C municipality. It sounds like he is a high-ranking official in a municipality, but everyone knows that with his background, it is difficult for him to rise much further at his age.
While the real reason was largely his own lack of real talent and arrogant, inept social skills, he knew he probably wouldn't have reached this position even after a lifetime of hard work if it weren't for the Xiao family's background. He understood that his upward mobility was limited, but accepting it was another matter. He knew that many people outwardly respected him as the Third Young Master Xiao, and even the current head of the municipal propaganda department dared not defy him, but behind his back they all cursed him for being useless. His elder brothers held high positions, while he could only drift along in this mediocre state. He was never a good-tempered person to begin with, and years of this had only made him more sinister and unpredictable, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.
However, his position also had its advantages, namely, a greater abundance of romantic encounters than any other position. The minister above Xiao Feihuang had only been in office for less than a year. The previous minister had been removed from his post earlier this year for his excessive womanizing, keeping dozens of mistresses and fathering several illegitimate children, acting like an African monarch. Surprisingly, his successor wasn't Xiao Feihuang, who had been a vice-minister for two years. This infuriated him so much that he sexually assaulted two 14- or 5-year-old girls in one night. But despite his anger, Xiao Feihuang didn't hold back when it came to pleasure. With his connections and current position, he could have as many second- or third-tier actresses as he wanted, and even sleeping with popular actresses was a piece of cake.
Xiao Feiyang recently acquired a new female celebrity, Zhang Anya. She's quite pretty and usually projects a sweet, innocent image, but in bed she's very uninhibited, with excellent skills and attention to detail, keeping Xiao Feiyang in a good mood these past few days. Zhang Anya has to film during the day, so Xiao Feiyang booked a table at MG Hotel for 9 PM tonight, planning to have dinner with her and then go to a hotel for some fun.
To his surprise, he immediately saw his nephew Xiao Yang sitting at the table by the window, looking like a confident and charismatic social elite.
Xiao Feihuang's mood immediately darkened. He was currently just a deputy minister in the city's propaganda department, while his nephew, who was only 30 years old, was already the first secretary of the most developed county. Once his father went to the capital, he would definitely be promoted to the C City government within a year or two. Ha, so what if his mother was the eldest son and grandson? He was also the legitimate son of the Xiao family born to the first wife. How dare Xiao Yang not take him seriously? Why?
Then Xiao Feihuang saw the woman sitting opposite him. The woman only looked up at him once. Her skin was like the finest white jade, her long, straight black hair was like the most precious silk, her face was exquisite and flawless, her chin was pointed, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her nose was straight and beautiful, and her small mouth was as red and tender as a peach blossom in spring. Her expression was aloof and cold. She was like a jade sculpture that exuded an undeniable warm radiance. Under her thick, long black eyelashes, her eyes seemed to ripple with intoxicating light. Against the backdrop of her pert breasts wrapped in a purple dress, she was so aloof and beautiful that she seemed unreal. Yet, she seemed to attract people to tear off her dress, ravage her tender red lips, play with her body, and make her cry and scream, unable to maintain this otherworldly appearance.
Xiao Feihuang had been with countless women over the years. Zhang Anya, whom he was with, was considered a beauty in the entertainment industry. With her exquisite makeup and professional photoshoots, she often gave people a stunning feeling when she appeared on camera. However, when he saw the stunning beauty that Xiao Yang had brought along, he felt that Zhang Anya was like a cheap, fake jadeite bought for a few hundred yuan in a small jade shop. Compared to high-quality glass-type jadeite, Xiao Feihuang simply didn't want to look at her anymore.
Seeing the beautiful woman, Xiao Feihuang's mood improved a bit. Hearing Xiao Yang's warning tone, which lacked any sense of respect for elders, he could only force a smile and say, "Ah, it's Xiao Yang. What a coincidence. Won't you introduce this lady to your third uncle?"
As he asked this question, his gaze became even more brazen, lingering on Su Tong's shoulders, neck, and chest. Only then did Su Tong realize that although his expression remained upright, his eyes were filled with a surging, disgusting lust.
However, Su Tong couldn't help but think deeper. Regardless of whether it was because of Xie Mingyuan or something else, Xie Chengjing was probably trying to help her. So, calling her to Mingjue must have been for meeting someone or something. And the person she was supposed to meet was none other than Xiao Feihuang, whom Xiao Yang called "Third Uncle." It was said that Old Master Xiao Weigong had four sons and one daughter; Xiao Feihuang was the third son. And Xiao Feihuang was so obviously showing such strong interest in her...
Thinking this, she suppressed her nausea and glanced at Xiao Feihuang a few more times out of the corner of her eye. Her eyes met Xiao Feihuang's by chance, and she felt nauseous from his sinister and lustful gaze.
Xiao Yang didn't want to have a big argument with Xiao Feihuang. He glanced at Zhang Anya, who was displeased because of Su Tong's stunning beauty and Xiao Feihuang's question about Su Tong, and then tolerated Xiao Feihuang's blatant gaze towards Su Tong. He said in a relatively amicable manner, "Oh, she's my girlfriend. She's not worth Uncle's attention. Uncle has a date with a beauty. Let's go have something to eat with Miss Zhang first."
Zhang Anya suppressed her temper, not wanting to appear as if the man she was with had been seduced by Su Tong at first glance. She smiled and tugged at Xiao Feihuang, saying sweetly, "Yes, Mr. Xiao Yang is right. I'm so hungry after filming all day."
As a result, Xiao Feihuang felt even more slighted by Xiao Yang's nonchalant attitude, as if he was being mocked for only being able to be with a mediocre woman, while Xiao Yang was surrounded by stunning beauties.
His anger flared even more, and he forcefully shoved Zhang Anya's hand away, nearly knocking her, who was wearing high heels, to the ground. He sneered, "What girlfriend? Did she meet your father or the old man? She's just a little fling. You're a hypocritical young master, aren't you? You can even talk about this so grandly. I'm only asking you because I'm giving you face, and you still..."
"Bang!" Xiao Yang's usually smiling face turned ashen as he slammed the cup to the ground, interrupting Xiao Feihuang's words.
There were partitions between the tables in the hall. Xiao Feihuang and his group had booked a table just inside Xiao Yang's table, barely inside the one they were passing. Even if others heard the sound of the glass breaking, they wouldn't run over to see what was going on. The waiter who was leading the way was smart enough to know that they were not to be trifled with, so he quickly stepped aside to call the manager, otherwise he might accidentally get caught in the crossfire.
Xiao Yang was truly enraged. He had never taken this third uncle seriously in the first place. He had been holding back by not saying anything when the uncle looked at Su Tong like that. He never expected that the uncle could say such things. It was not only an insult to Su Tong, whom Xiao Yang was currently doting on, but also ruined the impression that Su Tong had finally managed to change. He said coldly, "Third Uncle, you have always been reckless. I used to respect you as an elder and never offended you. Now you even covet your nephew's girlfriend. We are all family. I advise you to think carefully about what you say and do in the future, or you will suffer the consequences sooner or later."
Before Xiao Feihuang could say anything, Xiao Yang had already led Su Tong away.
