Dragon King Hall: The Mad Dragon in the World

Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Three Birthday Gifts



Steal?

This word indeed made Zhou Yue's eyes light up before he looked to the side, confirming that what the aunt had said was true.

Today in Jiangzhou City, there indeed was a Hermes boutique that was robbed, and a lot of items were stolen. The aunt's phone had pictures of the chaotic scene on her friends' circle.

"Impossible! I know best who Yunyun is! She would never do such a thing!"

Zheng Hongxiu's eyes reddened. To say that her daughter was stealing was even more unbearable than forcing her daughter to be someone else's mistress!

"Impossible, you say? Then how do you explain all these things they brought back? Won the lottery? Ha!"

The aunt sneered, swinging her phone around for the surrounding neighbors to see.

"..."

The neighbors who had just been indignant fell silent.

The photos were real.

And the things that Zhou Yun and Wang Qian had brought back...

If it was just one or two items, they might have understood, but to bring back so many...

The total value of these items was already equivalent to a property in the center of Jiangzhou City!

This wasn't something just anyone could casually afford, even among the prominent families they had heard of in Jiangzhou City, not many could show such boldness.

"It seems that you won't give up until you're faced with the Yellow River, huh."

Wang Qian said coldly, feeling disgusted by these relatives' hypocrisy, especially the aunt who slandered her and Zhou Yun for stealing.

As soon as she finished speaking, car headlights lit up from behind the crowd of onlookers, and the dazzling light made way for many people to step aside.

A fiery red Porsche Cayenne drove through the crowd and stopped at Zhou Yun's doorstep, with Xie Jun'an stepping out with three wooden boxes in his arms.

At first glance, Xie Jun'an saw Zhou Yun and her mother huddled together, his face slightly darkened.

Thinking that Ye Xiao had previously dispatched shadows to follow and protect Zhou Yun, Xie Jun'an's expression softened slightly, and he did not make a scene as he stepped forward.

"Miss Zhou, these are birthday gifts someone asked me to pass on to you."

The three palm-sized wooden boxes looked quite ancient. If it weren't for some ribbon decorations on the outside, one's first impression would surely not be anything of value.

"Birthday gifts?"

Zheng Hongxiu was stunned, her eyes shifting from sorrow and anger to confusion.

What was happening with her daughter today?

Not only did she bring back so many designer brands, but someone also drove a luxury car to deliver her birthday gifts?

"You put on such an act, and you can't even put in a bit more effort? You come here in a Porsche Cayenne and bring these three shabby things as birthday gifts? Who are you trying to scare?"

The aunt who accused Zhou Yun and Wang Qian of stealing spoke up, her face filled with mockery.

Putting on an act?

The neighbors were taken aback and began to examine the wooden boxes in Xie Jun'an's hands, their brows slightly furrowed.

This kind of gift truly did not look like something someone driving a Porsche Cayenne would give, at least not judging by its external packaging.

As for the aunt's sarcasm, Xie Jun'an merely glanced at her and ignored her.

Others might not know what was contained inside these three wooden boxes, but he was well aware and couldn't be bothered to stoop to the level of such ignorant people.

"No one is likely to send me gifts, right?"

Zhou Yun also came back to her senses and did not reach for the gift.

Hearing this, Xie Jun'an slightly smiled, "These are from your brother's friend for me to deliver."

Brother?

The image of Ye Xiao immediately sprang to Zhou Yun's mind.

"Yunyun... this..."

Zheng Hongxiu was puzzled as she certainly didn't remember Zhou Yun having any brother, and if she did, it would be the offspring of these relatives, who definitely wouldn't send Zhou Yun any birthday gifts.

Containing her anger, Wang Qian immediately stepped forward and explained everything that had happened today.

"A young man? The chairmen of Dragon King Hall and Emperor Bar follow behind him? Ha!"

The description by Wang Qian amused all the relatives.

"Girl, you probably don't know what Dragon King Hall and Emperor Bar are, do you? Next time you want to brag, couldn't you at least draft it out first?"

The old lady who accused the two women of stealing chuckled coldly.

"For those two places, not to mention the chairman, even a small manager could make you completely disappear from Jiangzhou City with just one sentence!"

"I advise you, know your place and scram now. Otherwise, who knows if the words you said today might reach their ears someday. By then, it'd be a matter of life and death for your whole family!"

With the old lady's words, the neighbors around her all changed color slightly.

Dragon King Hall!

Emperor Bar!

These two places represented the pinnacle of power for both the underworld and the mainstream in Jiangzhou City!

Although both were the rising forces of Jiangzhou City, they were now in their prime, and no one dared to provoke them.

"I..."

Wang Qian didn't know what to say for a moment. She had seen it with her own eyes and obviously wouldn't lie. The explanation just now, unless seen with one's own eyes, would hardly be believed by anyone due to its far-fetched nature.

Compared to that, Xie Jun'an was much more composed and calm, and without saying much, he smiled and said, "Miss Zhou, why don't you open it and see? These three gifts are quite heavy."

Very heavy!

This phrase struck a harsh note in the ears of the relatives present.

A person who drives a Porsche Cayenne described these gifts as "very heavy."

If this person really was an actor Zhou Yun had paid for, then it would be nothing.

If he wasn't...

Zhou Yun paused for a moment, looked at the ribbons on the wooden box, nodded, received one, and opened it.

The moment the wooden box was opened, a fragrant scent spread to the surroundings.

Inside the first wooden box, there was a dark purple name card with a neat line of writing on it.

The dark night, faint starlight, and the writing emitted a silver glow in the darkness that made one feel very comfortable.

Zhou Yun's brows knitted slightly, and then she looked at the information on the name card.

"Dragon King Hall — Su Chen."

Below it was a series of phone numbers, obviously the contact information for this person.

"This..."

Zhou Yun grew more bewildered.

Her birthday gift, a name card?

The relatives were stunned for a moment before erupting into laughter.

"Girl, you're still saying these aren't actors you've paid for? I thought it was some profound gift, but it turns out to be just a name card!"

Zhou Yue laughed out loud.

He really had been somewhat intimidated, but that uneasy feeling disappeared the instant he saw the name card.

Zhou Yun ignored Zhou Yue, and picked up the second wooden box, slowly opening it.

It was still a name card.

"Dragon King Hall — Xiao Zhan."

The laughter of the relatives became even more unrestrained.

Taking the third wooden box, Zhou Yun paused, then slowly opened it.

"Dragon King Hall — Qin Hao."

...

Three wooden boxes, three name cards, three different people's birthday gifts to Zhou Yun.

"Hahahahahaha!"

"'Heavy' gifts?"

"These gifts truly are eye-opening! So very heavy indeed!"

All three wooden boxes opened, the relatives laughed uproariously.

They didn't understand what was written on the name cards.

But, it was just three name cards, how valuable could they possibly be?
