Chapter 503 — Wu Chengtian's Plan

And now she had even told Feng Tianlong, which made Wei Zhao suspect all the more what on earth Feng Xiaoxiao was thinking.

"Great!" Feng Xiaoxiao had not expected Wei Zhao to offer her food, and she nodded happily in agreement.

While the two of them were talking, a Nissan Elgrand pulled into the parking lot of the Songjiang International Hotel.

Wu Chengtian, Kang Jinglong, the Xiao brothers, and Wang Xinyan got out one after another. Xiao Wangba praised him: "Brother Chengtian really is something else! This Songjiang International Hotel—I've only been here once or twice myself, and that was for family gatherings..."

"Heh, coming here is nothing much," Wu Chengtian said with a showy wave of his hand. In truth, although the Wu family was an old established clan, they esteemed martial arts; every one of them was skilled at fighting, but when it came to business they were thoroughly mediocre. They did have a few enterprises, but none of them were very large—a year brought in only tens of millions. This was also why, at the auction, the Wu family had merely looked on and rarely made a move.

The Songjiang International Hotel was not actually expensive in every respect. The guest rooms, for instance, were divided into several grades: economy rooms, business rooms, deluxe rooms, presidential suites, and so on. An ordinary economy room cost only a few hundred yuan a day, but a presidential suite ran to tens of thousands a day!

The same held for the dining section. The first and second floors were ordinary restaurant space, and the prices were not very high—a table came to just a thousand or so. If one skipped the private room and ate a set meal in the main hall, a few dozen yuan would do.

But on the third and fourth floors, without ten thousand or eight thousand yuan, one could forget about eating. And the top floor was even more outrageous—a single banquet there cost over a million, all made with the finest ingredients and cooked by internationally renowned chefs!

Naturally, each grade of floor had its own dedicated elevator, so there was no need to worry about any unpleasantness arising from diners of different standing. This too showed how formidable the hotel's resources were.

"That's for sure! Brother Chengtian is definitely a cut above the rest of us!" Xiao Wangdao also raised his thumb in flattery.

Wang Xinyan frowned. This sort of fawning disgusted her. She could not understand how her father had taken a liking to this kind of rich young idler! A man like that—she could know him for ten years and still never come to like him.

Xiao Wangba wanted to add a few more congratulations, but when he looked up, he noticed that Wu Chengtian's expression was not quite right, and he was instantly taken aback. "Brother Chengtian, what's wrong?"

"Damn it, I see that little punk!" Wu Chengtian clenched his fist, his gaze fixed on Wei Zhao not far away. He now felt a powerful urge to run over and beat Wei Zhao senseless!

"Oh? Why is he here?" Kang Jinglong was also startled to see Wei Zhao. He had not attended the auction, so naturally he had no idea that Wei Zhao had also come to Yanjing.

"Brother Chengtian, want the two of us to go teach him a lesson? Who's that little woman? She looks pretty good, actually." Seeing that Wei Zhao was alone apart from a woman beside him, Xiao Wangba grew cocky at once. Although the Xiao family had fallen on hard times, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse; here in Yanjing, there was no one Xiao Wangba would put in his eyes.

"Ah..." Wang Xinyan also let out a low cry. She too stared at Wei Zhao in some disbelief, wondering how Wei Zhao could have turned up here... She had even called him once before...

"No need!" Wu Chengtian waved his hand. Xiao Wangba's earlier words had given him an idea! The woman beside Wei Zhao was clearly not Sun Jingyan—and since Wei Zhao was Sun Jingyan's boyfriend, here he was getting mixed up with another woman! Heh heh, Wei Zhao's luck had run out. Wu Chengtian thought: if he told Sun Jingyan about this, would Sun Jingyan still possibly stay with Wei Zhao?

Of course, in the eyes of these rich young men such things were nothing at all. Playing around with women—so long as the girlfriend never found proof, it would just blow over. But if it were brought out into the open, then the matter became serious.

"No need?" Xiao Wangba did not quite understand what Wu Chengtian meant. What a fine opportunity this was—just the right time to take Wei Zhao down a peg. Why say no need?

"In a bit I'm going to invite them to dinner. All you have to do is play along! Don't talk nonsense—listen to what I say and just follow my lead!" Wu Chengtian was no fool. If he went straight to Sun Jingyan and said Wei Zhao had a woman on the side, Sun Jingyan would certainly not believe him, and would even think he was making things up!

Everything required evidence! He could snap a photo and send it to Sun Jingyan, but a photo of people talking at a hotel entrance proved nothing at all—one could stand chatting with an acquaintance for ages. Wu Chengtian was not so foolish as to use something like that as evidence!

What he had in mind instead was to invite Wei Zhao to dinner. Then perhaps he would catch some intimate gesture between Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao. Of course, if Wei Zhao were more cautious, then he would simply ply him with more liquor—after drinking, a man was bound to give himself away. Then he would snap a photo, and Sun Jingyan would have no choice but to believe it!

Having thought up this scheme, Wu Chengtian felt he was truly a genius—killing without a trace, quietly setting a trap for his opponent to walk right into!

"Huh? Brother Chengtian is going to treat him to dinner?" Xiao Wangba could hardly believe his ears.

"That's right! In a bit, lend me a hand—the moment he and that woman make any intimate move, snap it with your phones!" Wu Chengtian instructed.

"Understood!" Xiao Wangba and the others nodded repeatedly, but Wang Xinyan alone knitted her brows, unable to fathom what Wu Chengtian was scheming.

"Wei Zhao!" Having finished his instructions, Wu Chengtian strode quickly toward Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao had not expected to run into an acquaintance here. He turned around and saw Wu Chengtian, and thought to himself: has this brat come looking for trouble because he can't take losing?

"What do you want?" Wei Zhao glanced at him, but his gaze came to rest on Wang Xinyan, not far behind Wu Chengtian! This left Wei Zhao all the more astonished. How had Wang Xinyan come to be mixed up with the likes of Wu Chengtian? And besides Wang Xinyan, Wei Zhao spotted another acquaintance — Kang Jinglong!

"Brother Wei Zhao, I was greatly out of line just now. Please forgive me!" Wu Chengtian gritted his teeth and, putting on a show of deep regret, said to Wei Zhao, "My grandfather has already given me a dressing-down. I hope you won't hold it against me..."

"Oh, I don't have time to hold anything against small fry. I still can't even remember your name." Wei Zhao gave him a look and waved a hand. "You're called Wu Tieshou, right?"

A flicker of anger crossed Wu Chengtian's face, but he quickly concealed it. "Ha, my name is Wu Chengtian. You can also call me Wu Tieshou — after all, our family trains in the Iron Hand technique!"
