Hidden Master: starting by canceling ten marriage proposals

The entire restaurant instantly fell silent.

Everyone was stunned.

Among the four major families in Su Hang—the Xia, Shang, Wang, and Lin.

Even though the Xia Family ranked first, it didn't mean that the head of the Shang Family should apologize to a junior member of the Xia Family.

Especially since one of Shang Qian's arms was twisted in an unnatural way, obviously broken.

Let alone other people.

Even Xia Nianbing furrowed her brows and instinctively took a step back.

She had just received a call from Lord Long, asking for her address, but she had not expected that the Shang Family would come to apologize in a matter of minutes.

Shang Yuanning's face had already turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

He knew that as an elder, apologizing to a junior like Xia Nianbing was indeed a loss of face, but who would have thought his idiot son would get caught drugging someone?

And!

The drugging had actually taken place in Lord Long's club.

The Shang Family's largest contracts and agreements all came from Lord Long's side; one could even say that Lord Long held the Shang Family's lifeline.

So when Lord Long called in a fury, Shang Yuanning had no choice but to break his own son's arm to apologize to Xia Nianbing!

Xia Nianbing, clever as she was, glanced at the sullen-faced Lord Long and immediately took a step back.

Her attitude was obvious—she did not accept the Shang Family's apology.

Shang Qian, pale from pain, saw Xia Nianbing's reaction and felt indignation, "Our Shang Family has already apologized, what more do you want?"

Yin Tian grinned on the side, "Your Shang Family has apologized, and you're asking what else is needed? Does your Shang Family have no shame at all?"

"Your Shang Family was the one who committed such a filthy act, and now you feel wronged? How can you shamelessly say such a thing?"

Shang Yuanning's eyelids twitched nearby.

His eldest son had been spoiled since childhood, and even his education had turned him foolish.

The Shang Family had already provoked public outrage, so how could he say such things openly?

Therefore, with one kick, he sent Shang Qian kneeling on the ground.

"Niece Xia, today my Shang Family was in the wrong. What will it take for us to turn the page on this matter?"

Shang Yuanning knew that if this matter was not handled properly, all of Su Hang would soon know, and the Shang Family would become a laughingstock today!

Shang Lin stood nearby, completely stupefied.

With his father and brother apologizing, he did not know whether to stand or sit.

Yin Tian chuckled, "There's another member of the Shang Family over there."

Shang Yuanning turned his head and saw Shang Lin frown, "Get over here!"

Shang Lin obediently hurried over, his expression devoid of the arrogance he had shown towards Yin Tian before.

Lord Long walked over from the side, his face also looking particularly ugly.

Fortunately, nothing had happened to Xia Nianbing in his club; otherwise, how could he, Lord Long, stand his ground in the underworld?

So, approaching Shang Yuanning, he said with a dark face, "The Shang Family will compensate the Xia Family with twenty million, and they will also give the Xia Family the newly auctioned land for development."

Turning his head, he looked directly at Xia Nianbing, "Nianbing, is that acceptable?"

Before Xia Nianbing could speak, Shang Lin immediately shook his head on the side, "How can this be okay? That land was hard-won by our Shang Family in an auction!"

Shang Qian also shook his head, "Twenty million, what makes her worth that much money!"

"Ha... With such a pair of young talents, why wouldn't the Shang Family fall?" Yin Tian mocked from the side.

Shang Yuanning had not expected his two sons to be so foolish.

Furious, he raised his hand and slapped each son across the face, "Shut up, both of you!"

After speaking, Shang Yuanning bowed again to Xia Nianbing.

"Twenty-five million and a plot of land—how about we act as if this never happened?"

Although somewhat unwilling, Xia Nianbing nodded in acquiescence for the face of Lord Long.

Lord Long had intended to speak further with Xia Nianbing.

But seeing Yin Tian at Xia Nianbing's side, he felt it inappropriate to interrupt, gave a greeting, and left first.

Shang Yuanning of the Shang Family glanced at Xia Nianbing, promising to deliver the contract to the Xia Family by evening, then left with Shang Qian and Shang Lin.

Before leaving, Shang Yuanning's face was darkened with rage, and he even kicked Shang Qian and Shang Lin.

It was evident he was furious to the point of explosion.

After everyone had left, Su Qinxue was still in shock.

She had never seen so many important figures and was completely at a loss.

All she remembered was Yin Tian berating Shang Lin and Shang Qian, and then fleeing in a panic.

Yin Tian paid her no attention, turned around, and sat down with Xia Nianbing.

"Turning danger into safety, and even getting twenty-five million in compensation—today counts as a happy occasion, doesn't it?"

Xia Nianbing opened a bottle of red wine, lifted her phoenix eyes, her gaze sincere, "Little Immortal, meeting you is my happy occasion."

"If it weren't for you, today might have..."

Xia Nianbing glanced at Yin Tian, her eyes filled with gratitude.

An hour later, the two finished their meal and walked out of the hotel together.

Xia Nianbing blinked and turned to look at Yin Tian, not knowing why, but feeling somewhat reluctant to part ways.

Then, struck by a sudden idea, she said, "There's an antique market over there, shall we go see if we can find some treasures?"

Yin Tian saw it was still early and nodded, accompanying Xia Nianbing to the antique market.

The market was huge, filled with noisy sounds everywhere.

Just arriving at the entrance of a stall, they heard someone excitedly shout, "Nianbing! What are you doing here?"

Hearing this voice, Yin Tian saw Xia Nianbing beside him immediately furrow her small brows.
