The vengeful eyes that were looking at Bai Chen belonged to none other than Ao Song.
He had obviously also received an invitation to this party.
“That damn kid!” Beside Ao Song was Ao Suan, the bald middle-aged man who was his father.
Ao Suan was also looking at Bai Chen with murder in his eyes.
Of course, the cause for this rage was from a few days ago when the duo had been dragged off to beat up badly. There were still some bruises on their faces right now.
The reason for that was Bai Chen. How could they not despise him intensely then?
“I’ll make him pay!” Ao Song clenched his fists. There was only him and his dad at the entire dinner table. Thus, he could be as angry as he wanted to.
“Calm down, son.”
Even though he was equally angry, Ao Suan was still calm. He knew very well that if they caused trouble at a party hosted by Li Cong Tian, who was the leader of both the economic world and the top family of Xing Zhou, it would translate to big trouble for him.
It was not something he could bear.
He then tried to calm his son down. They had paid a lot of money to get this invitation. If they caused any trouble, they might risk getting beaten up again.
“But he...” Ao Song did not want to listen to his father, but Ao Suan cut him off.
“No buts,” Ao Suan said, his face solemn. “No need to rush. We can wait to take care of him after the party.”
“Yes, dad. I understand now.”
Ao Song finally listened to his dad. He started to realize the consequences of causing a scene here. However, his emotions would not settle down that easily. He still looked at Bai Chen with hatred.
But suddenly, it was as though his body was hit by lightning. His eyes opened wide before he went still with his mouth wide open. It was as if someone had hit him in the head with a metal pipe!
“H... he’s with Li Lin!” Ao Song’s lips parted before his trembling voice sounded.
“What is it?” Ao Suan saw his son’s reaction, so he asked before turning to look where Ao Song was looking.
“That is...”
Ao Suan had to squint as soon as he saw it. His reaction was quite different from that of Ao Song.
“How is he with Li Lin? Was she the one who brought him here?!?”
It was as if Ao Song had just woken up from what gripped him. His expression changed drastically. It became uglier than before.
Earlier because of his rage towards Bai Chen, he had forgotten to wonder how a person from a poor family such as Bai Chen’s could come to be at the Li Cong Tian’s anniversary party.
When he saw Li Lin, Ao Song realized it right away. There was a high likelihood that Li Lin had brought Bai Chen.
Even then, he did not want to believe that Li Lin, the only daughter of Li Cong Tian, would lower her standards to get involved with someone like Bai Chen.
But whether he wanted to believe it or not, the scene in front of Ao Song reaffirmed the truth.
“Damn it! Bai Chen, you scum!” Ao Song got angrier and angrier. Li Lin was the girl he wanted to ensnare so that he could have a better life and his family could raise their status.
He could not calm his anger when he saw Bai Chen with her like that.
“I’ll kill him today!” Ao Suan said. A grim smile flashed upon his face.
Ao Song turned to look at his father, his enraged face becoming much more relaxed. “Thank you, dad.”
Ao Suan nodded a little. “I’ll call Mr. Tu. He will take care of this man. If Mr. Tu strikes, even if Bai Chen had ten lives, they would not be enough!”
“Mr. Tu!” Ao Song was surprised when he heard that name.
This Mr. Tu was Tu Hou. He was quite a famous figure in Xing Zhou’s underworld.
He had established the Black Monkey Gang many years ago. His talent had helped the gang grow to become a big one. Even if it was not as big as the White Tiger Gang, it was still quite influential. It was not strange that Ao Song was shocked by hearing about Tu Hou.
Rumours had it that Tu Hou loved killing targets by himself. If the gang received a job, no matter who the target was, they would perish by his hands. He had killed plenty of people by himself!
“Even if we had to pay quite a sum, it will be worth it!” Ao Suan told his son. No matter how angry he was due to the incident a few days back, he had not had any intention of killing Bai Chen.
But now everything had changed. The fact that Bai Chen was with Li Lin was a threat. And Ao Song wanting to trap Li Lin was an idea that was received support from Ao Suan.
Now Bai Chen was a threat. Even though it was not a big one now, but if he remained alive, he might become one later.
Just like how the saying went: ‘Dead people cause the least problems!’
Therefore, Ao Suan was willing to pay a hefty sum just to have Tu Hou kill Bai Chen.
All of this, Ao Suan did not only do it for his son but also for himself.
If Ao Song could trap Li Lin, he would also have a better life. The Li family was the wealthiest family in all of Xing Zhou. Their wealth would guarantee the Ao duo happy lives.
“Bai Chen, your time has come!”
Ao Song smiled coldly. He looked towards Bai Chen’s profile as though he was looking at a corpse.
The fact that his father was going to hire Tu Hou to kill Bai Chen made him certain that the latter’s life would end tonight.
It would be a miracle if he survived!
That was Ao Song’s thought.
While he was looking coldly at Bai Chen, Ao Song seemed to realize something. He turned towards his father then said, “Dad, I want to see him die with my own eyes.”
Ao Suan paused for a second before smiling cruelly once more.
“That is no problem. I’ll call Mr. Tu right now. After this party, we shall go see him get killed together!”
