Tycoon War God

"What are you doing here? Get out!"

At that moment, the only thing on Lun Tan's mind was the image of the distinguished guest Liu Pangzi had described. Therefore, the plainly dressed Lin Mu, who seemed to be of ordinary status, couldn't possibly be the honored guest Liu Pangzi had spoken of.

That's just impossible!

Lin Mu was just Wei Shiman's classmate, and he had even been rejected when he pursued her. Furthermore, the things Lin Mu had said in the Earth-Class Private Room made Lun Tan despise him. So, upon seeing Lin Mu in the Sky-Class Private Room, it never even occurred to him that Lin Mu was *that* person. He merely thought Lin Mu was someone who had taken a wrong turn and wandered in by mistake.

Lun Tan was both shocked and terrified, cursing Wei Shiman endlessly in his heart. What kind of classmate does this stupid woman have? Is he trying to get me killed? If these important people get angry with me because of Lin Mu, not only will I miss the chance to connect with that major figure, I'll be dragged down with him!

Sure enough, Lun Tan saw the people at the table abruptly rise and rush toward him. A surge of joy welled up in his heart, and his gaze immediately fell upon the approaching middle-aged man. The man was dressed in a suit, his face carrying the imposing air of someone long accustomed to a position of authority, and his eyes blazed with undisguised fury.

With his worldly eye, Lun Tan immediately guessed the man's identity. This must be the distinguished guest Liu Pangzi mentioned.

"Lun Tan of the Tan Family greets you all!" Lun Tan hurriedly said, "I don't know this man; I've only seen him before. He wandered into your private room by mistake and disturbed you. I apologize to you all on his behalf."

In a panic, Lun Tan grabbed a bottle of liquor from the table and poured himself a glass. Then, under everyone's stunned gazes, he raised his glass and surveyed the room. "A toast to everyone! I'll drink first as a sign of my respect!"

However, just as he was about to down the drink, he noticed everyone staring at him, dumbfounded. And he seemed to recognize three of them. Besides the pair of twins, he had met the only other girl at the table at the hotel entrance. He had even invited her to dinner.

At the time... wasn't she with Lin Mu?

BANG!

As if realizing something, Lun Tan's limbs instantly went weak. He couldn't even hold his glass steady, and it fell, smashing on the ground. The expensive liquor spilled all over the floor, some of it even splashing onto Lun Tan's leather shoes, which were worth tens of thousands. But not only did he feel no regret for the loss, he was instead struck by a profound chill and a wave of terror.

Subconsciously turning around, Lun Tan saw Lin Mu looking at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. To him, that smile was extremely irritating, filled with mockery.

"Liu... Brother Liu..." Lun Tan was on the verge of tears, his gaze pleading as he looked at Liu Pangzi.

But he discovered Liu Pangzi was in an even worse state. He was slumped on the ground, as limp as if his skeleton had been removed, his face terrifyingly pale as sweat dripped from his chin.

"Lun Tan!"

Hearing his name, Liu Pangzi seemed to snap back to his senses. Mustering strength from nowhere, he scrambled up, rushed at Lun Tan, and slapped him across the face.

SLAP!

The slap seemed to carry all of Liu Pangzi's strength, sending Lun Tan spinning around twice before he doubled over and vomited.

"Are you trying to get me killed?!" Liu Pangzi's eyes were bloodshot, as if he wanted to kill Lun Tan.

"Brother Liu... I..." Lun Tan was completely stunned by the slap. "Why did you hit me? I..."

"You idiot!" Liu Pangzi was about to continue his tirade when the young man standing in the center of the room said coolly, "That's enough."

Liu Pangzi glanced at Xiao Qian, as if asking for confirmation.

"Liu Pangzi, you may leave," Xiao Qian said calmly, but Liu Pangzi sensed a hint of murderous intent in his tone.

His fat body trembling, Liu Pangzi didn't dare say another word. He immediately retreated from the room, even closing the door behind him.

Lun Tan sat on the floor, half of his face swollen like a pig's head, still reeling and dizzy.

Lin Mu smiled, walked over to a sofa in front of the shocked Lun Tan, and sat down, observing him with calm eyes.

"Miao..." Xiao Zhan and the others started to kneel, but Lin Mu waved his hand. "Enough. Everyone sit down."

Xiao Zhan didn't dare to insist and sat down, feeling extremely uneasy. In his heart, he wished he could tear Liu Pangzi and Lun Tan to pieces. He had come specifically to apologize to Lin Mu. But not only had he failed, the whole affair had been ruined by that idiot, Lun Tan. Now, Xiao Zhan was dripping with cold sweat, trying to find a way to make amends.

Li Lai stood behind Lin Mu, her cold gaze fixed on Lun Tan. "Master, how should we deal with him?"

"M-Master?" Lun Tan stared blankly at Li Lai. This girl, as ethereal as a mountain spring, was Lin Mu's disciple?

So... Lin Mu is the distinguished guest Liu Pangzi mentioned, the one even Xiao Qian has to treat with the utmost respect? Isn't he just Wei Shiman's classmate?

Lun Tan's mind reeled.

"Lun Tan? Young Master Tan? We meet again." A faint smile played on Lin Mu's lips, but in Lun Tan's eyes, that smile was more torturous than death itself.

"No, it can't be!" Lun Tan shook his head violently, his voice shrill. "Lin Mu, tell me! Did you hire these people just to make a fool of me?"

"How presumptuous!" Li Lai suddenly waved her hand, and the shadow of a whip whistled through the air, lashing directly across Lun Tan's face.

CRACK!

Lun Tan screamed miserably as his body flew backward. A wound so deep you could see the bone appeared on his face.

"How dare you speak the Master's name so directly!" Li Lai had been annoyed with Lun Tan for some time. If her Master hadn't stopped her multiple times, she would have killed him at the hotel entrance.

Lun Tan lay on the floor, groaning in pain, unable to form words.

Lin Mu was also taken aback for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. This Lun Tan truly thinks too highly of himself.

Lin Mu scoffed. "Make a fool of you? You think too highly of yourself. Didn't you say you wouldn't even deign to spare me a glance? Didn't you demand that my woman personally pour you a drink? What do you think you are? You're not worthy!"

Lun Tan's eyes bulged. The president of the Qin Corporation is Lin Mu's woman?

Li Lai snorted coldly. "Master, this man dared to disrespect you and the Mistress. Should I just gouge out his eyes and cut out his tongue?"

Lun Tan was terrified, his legs trembling so violently he nearly wet himself.

Lin Mu smiled helplessly and stood up. "A young lady shouldn't be so violent. Anyway, let's skip dinner. Time to go."

"Master!" Xiao Zhan's expression changed. Just as he was about to explain, Lin Mu said flatly, "That's enough. You can handle the rest."

Xiao Zhan was startled, then he understood.

Meanwhile, a pale-faced Lun Tan shrieked, "Lin Mu, let me go, please spare me this once..."

But Lin Mu simply walked out of the private room, not giving Lun Tan a second glance. Such a minor character wasn't worthy of his attention. If Xiao Zhan couldn't even handle this small matter, then he didn't deserve to live.

It's one thing to look down on me, but insulting my woman is unforgivable!

After Lin Mu left, a pale-faced Xiao Qian rushed over. "Family Head, I never expected..."

Xiao Zhan closed his eyes in anguish. "Forget it. Perhaps this is simply the fate of our Xiao Family." Sighing, Xiao Zhan gave Xiao Qian a deep look, his tone chilling. "Clean this up. If the Miao King shows even a shred of dissatisfaction, you will take your own life."

"Yes!" Cold sweat instantly beaded on Xiao Qian's brow. After Xiao Zhan left, he roared, "Liu Pangzi, get your ass in here!"

Liu Pangzi entered, trembling like a leaf. "Mr. Xiao, I..."

Xiao Qian looked at him, his face contorted with murderous intent. "Go. Bring me this bastard's last three generations. If a single one is missing, I'll have all that fat on your body rendered into oil to light my lamps!"

"Yes!" How could Liu Pangzi dare to refuse? He immediately scurried out, wailing internally.

It's over... it's all over. A great upheaval is coming to Zun City!

Meanwhile, Lun Tan's eyes widened in horror. With a strangled gasp, he lost control of his bladder and bowels, then fainted from sheer terror.

It's over... the Tan Family is finished!
