Chapter 407: Bitter Words
Lan Xiao covered his swollen face and wondered what was wrong with his uncle. Was he also bewitched by that girl?
Or was it because of Young Master Yi’s control?
His uncle’s usually serious face was now completely dark, looking like the King of Hell. He was full of murderous intent.
His appearance would make others think that he was the one getting insulted.
“Do you still not understand?” When Lan Guang saw Lan Xiao’s appearance, he knew that in the boy’s mind, he was still unconvinced. Lan Guang became even more anxious and angry. He could only make an exception. Even if he had to pay a heavy price today, he would still use a hammer to get some sense into his nephew’s pig brain!
“Do you still remember the person with Level 7 of the S-grade laboratory that I mentioned to you the other day? It’s Sheng Yang!”
Lan Xiao was in a daze. The muscles on his face seemed to have temporarily malfunctioned as they twitched. “Who?”
“Sheng Yang… Miss Sheng, the competitor you looked down on in the business war.”
Lan Xiao suddenly leaned against the wall at the side. As he was caught off guard, his bones smashed against the wall and made a loud sound.
His body seemed to have been completely drained. His face was paler than flour, and his entire body was like a pile of mud as he slowly slid down.

Before Sheng Yang returned to Yan City, the news had already spread.
The entire Sheng Corporation was filled with joy. Everyone was discussing the young miss in the group chat.
Sheng You and Kang Weizhen were especially happy and generous.
This time, all the women in the company were given a set of luxurious skincare products, while the men were given a watch each.
Everyone became even more enthusiastic and cheered her on.
Sheng You and Kang Weizhen’s celebration was simple.
The news naturally reached the Sheng family’s old residence.
Grandma Sheng pursed her lips. She was used to leaving sarcastic comments all the time, but this time, she held herself back.
She only managed to meet Dennis through Sheng Yang.
This girl had some redeeming qualities.
Sheng Yue was considerate, but she only knew how to flatter. She would also buy some gifts, but they were all flashy and not practical. Plus, it wasn’t like Grandma Sheng couldn’t buy those things herself.
However, Dennis was not someone that anyone could meet.
Old Master Sheng was also very happy. The Wen family and the Sheng family were arch-enemies in Yan City. Last year, he lost his temper because he didn’t have the ability to suppress the Wen family. Now that he could finally hold his head high, how could he not be happy?
Coincidentally, the old master from the Wen family would be present at a large banquet today. Grandpa Sheng delayed an important matter and insisted on showing off. After all, this was a rare opportunity.
At the banquet, everyone was toasting each other and many people were wearing fake smiles.
Old Master Sheng was the same. Because of Sheng Yang, many people came to offer him a toast, saying that he had brought back a good granddaughter.
At this moment, there were also people who didn’t support him and said bluntly, “Old Master, didn’t I hear that you weren’t willing to acknowledge this granddaughter?”
Grandpa Sheng acted as if he didn’t hear that. He drank his wine and didn’t answer directly.
He felt that the other party was just jealous. That person’s own children and grandchildren were useless, so they came to him to seek pleasure.
Not long after, the highlight of the show finally arrived. Seeing the old master from the Wen family walk in from the entrance, Old Master Sheng hurriedly walked over with a wine glass in hand.
The power of the Wen family was still under Old Master Wen’s control, so everyone addressed him respectfully as President Wen.
Wen Maoqun’s eagle-like eyes were fixed on Old Master Sheng as he walked toward him. He was already prepared.
“Good evening, President Wen.” Grandpa Sheng smiled, but he looked like a petty man who had gotten what he wanted.
