As if he didn't hear the threat in the other's words, Ye Xuan said calmly, "In that case, we're destined not to even be friends."
"Friends? Haha, Brother Ye, honestly, I also wanted to be friends with you, but I think there's no room for negotiations between us! To be frank, I've set my eyes on your woman, and I'm prepared to obtain her at any cost! So, we're destined not to be friends. But if you're willing, you can be my lackey brother; for Liu CEO's sake, I'll look out for you here in Shangjing."
Jiang Tao spoke leisurely, not intending to hide his purpose any longer but tearing off the mask of pretense. This shows that he's completely torn the facade with Ye Xuan, blatantly threatening him!
"Be your lackey? Haha, in this world, no one has ever made Ye Xuan be a lackey!"
Ye Xuan's eyes narrowed, speaking with full bravado, "There never has been before, and there won't be in the future! Because only I can stand above others. And you, Jiang Tao, are no different in my eyes."
"Who can't brag? Are you really that confident in yourself?" Jiang Tao's gaze forced upon Ye Xuan.
"That's right, you'll deeply regret this decision! Not only did you lose a strong ally, but you also unnecessarily provoked an enemy you can't resist! Anyone who dares to covet my woman never meets a good end."
Ye Xuan spoke casually, with a calm and unruffled face.
"Confidence is good, but once it's overdone, it's nothing but a joke! So I think your situation is quite the opposite; from start to finish, I'll be very safe, not only with nothing happening but also successfully possessing your woman!"
Jiang Tao's lips curled upward into a proud and arrogant smile: "As for you... haha, that's hard to say! Maybe there could be great danger, it all depends on what you do."
"Really? But I don't think so. I think if you insist on this, then tonight you're finished!"
Ye Xuan's eyes flashed, and he said calmly.
"Brother Ye, it seems you haven't figured out the situation! Aren't you curious why I chose to invite Liu CEO to dinner here?"
Jiang Tao laughed freely, looking unhurriedly at Ye Xuan, but before the latter could reply, he bragged complacently, "Because this is my territory, the entire Yunding Clubhouse is within my sphere of influence! To put it bluntly, I am the local emperor of this place!"
"Enter here, and whether you're a dragon, I can make you lay down with just a word, and if a tiger, make you submit! No one dares defy me; if I want you alive, you'll live; if I want you dead... you'll die! Now, do you think you still have a chance to win?"
After speaking, Jiang Tao stared intently at Ye Xuan, expecting to see panic appear on the other's face.
But to his disappointment, Ye Xuan's expression remained calm, even after hearing all that, without any sign of panic!
Is he pretending?
Jiang Tao thought to himself, assuming Ye Xuan was putting on a courageous front! Otherwise, how could a sheep walk into a wolf pack without feeling fear? It defies common sense.
"You think this is your territory, so you can control everyone? I must say, you're too naive!"
Ye Xuan shook his head and said calmly.
"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Tao frowned.
"It's simple, while this may be your place, at most you are the boss here, which doesn't mean you can control everything! Because in front of me, you don't have the qualification to control, nor can you be the ruler!"
Ye Xuan said expressionlessly and then stood up from the sofa.
"Alright! Let's end this game here, we should deal with the real matter now!"
With cold eyes fixed on the latter, Ye Xuan said indifferently, "Since you want to target my girlfriend and won't let her do business, then you must bear the consequences! Now, let's settle this score."
What?
Jiang Tao doubted if he heard wrong; I didn't come to settle the score with you, yet you're coming to settle with me? This guy must be out of his mind!
Meanwhile, as Ye Xuan and Jiang Tao were on the verge of conflict, Liu Ying sat leisurely on the couch, with a look of eager interest, like a bystander enjoying the upcoming drama between the two.
"Brother Ye, it seems you won't cry until you see the coffin! I've advised you before, but since you won't listen, let me show you what kind of situation you're facing now!"
Jiang Tao smiled indifferently, then threw a gaze at Yong.
Yong understood, having lost to Ye Xuan in a previous drinking competition, making him hold a grudge, and now was the perfect time to vent it! He immediately went to the door and whistled outside.
As soon as the whistle stopped, the sound of the private room door 'boom' was opened, and a group of strong men rushed in. The two leading men were the two guards who had been watching the door earlier.
Once inside the room, the crowd immediately spread out, occupying every corner of the room! The two suit-clad bodyguards stood behind Jiang Tao, their eyes like daggers focused on Ye Xuan.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Tao smiled triumphantly at Ye Xuan, "Well, do you still have that confidence now?"
Ye Xuan glanced around and then focused his gaze on Jiang Tao, saying, "Are these people what you rely on? You want to force us into submission with violence?"
"Correct!"
Jiang Tao nodded frankly, without the slightest embarrassment, "I wasn't originally planning to be so direct, but intended to get you drunk and then drug Liu CEO to make her unconscious, so I could enjoy her ultimate service!"
"But I didn't expect you to handle your liquor so well and not get drunk! Out of helplessness, I had to use force, or how could I let such deliciousness escape? To not savor someone like Liu CEO would be such a pity!"
At this moment, he completely tore off his disguise, his face showing a lustful and evil smile, "Brother Ye, don't blame me for this, blame your girlfriend for being too beautiful. Any man who sees her would be irresistibly tempted to do that kind of thing!"
"And I, as one of the Four Swordsmen of Shangjing, known as the White-clad Sword Prince, can't easily let go of such a stunning beauty? I've been thirsting for so long! Hehehe..."
Ye Xuan shook his head and sighed, "Seeing you like this now, using 'trashy guest' to describe you would be an insult to the term! You're just a piece of trash, trash down to the core! Back then, your dad should have shot you on the wall instead of in the hole, to spare people the harm."
