The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Xu Hao laughed, "Don't worry, I know my limits. This guy has been a lingering pain for a long time, starting from the last auction where we began our feud. But I am a man who reacts better to soft approaches than hard ones. If he dares to make the first move, I dare to go to extremes."

Sun Decong also said, "Younger Brother Chen worries too much. Mao Jinxi heedlessly provokes Young Master Xu, seeking his own suffering."

Everyone seeing Sun Decong so vigorously supporting Xu Hao, was somewhat astonished. What kind of background did Xu Hao have?

Indeed, Xu Hao himself was quite strong, but even as part of the Seven Small Families, they were not entirely powerless, so they were wary, but not afraid.

However, Sun Decong's attitude clearly amounted to extreme admiration, and his words even seemed excessively complimentary.

Xu Hao took Xiao Lan's hand and smiled, "I'll go outside to check, please continue."

Saying this, Xu Hao walked toward the door.

The people at this table in the banquet hall could almost not stay seated and got up one after the other to follow the excitement.

Li Chenggong frowned slightly but followed as well.

Just as he reached the doorway, Xu Hao spoke out, "Mao Jinxi, you're quite daring to impede my people."

Xin Peixian was overjoyed. Xu Hao really came out to support him.

Mao Jinxi glanced at Xu Hao and snorted, "Xu Hao, are all these people behind you here to back you up?"

As soon as Mao Jinxi said this, the color drained from the faces of many in the crowd. He was forcing people to choose sides!

The Patriarch of the Wu Family, Wu Yong, immediately stepped forward, approaching Young Master Wu, and said with a smile, "Nephew Jinxi, long time no see, you seem more imposing than ever!"

In this move, Wu Yong clearly indicated to everyone that his Wu Family was standing with the Mao Family.

At that moment, Zhou Jiandong, the Acting Patriarch of the Zhou Family, Zhou's second son, also stood out and said with a smile, "Young Master Xu, your medicine is indeed effective. My elder brother's burn is continuously improving. However, for the benefit of my family, I have to stand on the side opposed to you, I hope Young Master Xu will not take offense."

After Zhou Jiandong spoke, he stood by Mao Jinxi.

Zhou Jiandong's words held great respect for Xu Hao, and he was grateful that Xu Hao's treatment was healing Zhou Changcun's burns, but who in the room wasn't a cunning fox?

Many could guess that Zhou Jiandong absolutely despised Xu Hao, but nobody spoke it out loud.

In the blink of an eye, two of Huadu City's Four Great Families had openly supported the Mao Family!

Sun Decong laughed, "My Sun Family fully supports Young Master Xu!"

Sun Decong, with a beaming face, looked at Mao Jinxi without a hint of fear, scoffing in his heart at the others' shortsightedness. How could they know the strength of the power behind Young Master Xu?

An elderly, slightly breathless old man slowly walked forward from behind and said in a slightly wheezing voice, "My Qian Family has collaborated with General Anthony for many years. Young Master Xu too has dealings with General Anthony, and General Anthony's daughter has a secret affection for Young Master Xu, so my Qian Family chooses to support Young Master Xu."

Everyone was greatly shocked.

The stance of the Four Great Families also represented the overall attitude of Huadu. As for the other Seven Small Families, they were not even considered by the Four Great Families, being mere dependents without a right to speak.

Now, the first and third of the Four Great Families supported Mao Jinxi, the second and fourth supported Xu Hao. Although there was a ranking, each of the Great Families was formidable!

Nobody expected Xu Hao to manage in getting two majors families to willingly side with him without a word.

Xu Hao laughed, "Thanks for the strong support from both of you, but I, Xu Hao, am a straightforward man, and I prefer to solve problems in a direct and forceful way. Wu Mengchong, move your people away, or don't blame me for taking action."

Wu Mengchong's face instantly changed. Xu Hao completely disregarded the usual protocols.

Mao Jinxi's statement was about comparing the foundation and strength. Anyone not foolish could understand that there must be a strong force behind Xu Hao.

Nobody wanted to contend with someone whose true strength was unknown, so before truly turning against Xu Hao, they needed to figure out his backing.

But to their surprise, Xu Hao directly issued a threat, giving them no chance to probe into his details!

In his heart, Xu Hao chuckled coldly. Just this bunch of people thought they could uncover his secrets?

He did not even fully grasp how much wealth and power his own father held. How could they possibly figure it out?

Keep dreaming your Dream of the Red Mansion!

Seeing the two men silently backing off, Xu Hao said, "Family Head Wu, your son is inconsiderate; don't tell me you are going to join his foolish actions as well? Xin Peixian is under my protection; are you really going to oppose me over a mere youth?"

Xu Hao looked around with a cold laugh, "Is this the attitude of the head of Huadu's first great family? Not daring to let even a gatekeeper pass?"

Wu Yong found himself in a difficult position instantly, and Wu Mengchong was visibly distressed.

Xu Hao's statement skipped over Wu Mengchong entirely and directly targeted Wu Yong, the contemporary Family Head of the Wu Family, and father of Wu Mengchong.

If it was just Wu Mengchong, then he could refuse to release Xin Peixian. After all, he was young, and it is normal for young people to be competitive and meticulous.
