Chapter 537: Cheng Yuan, Do You Know Who Is Inside?

Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Cheng Yuan, Do You Know Who Is Inside?

The White Palace, second-floor banquet hall.

Cheng Yuan was in the middle of crafting a Protective Jade Token when his phone suddenly rang.

Cheng Yuan pulled out his phone and saw He Zhixuan’s message for help!

A fire of rage instantly ignited in Cheng Yuan’s heart. He casually tossed the Jade Marrow into his Jade Pendant Space, then charged out of the hall and flew down the stairs.

At the entrance of the White Palace, Cheng Yuan ran into Zhou Shilong, who was seeing off some guests.

Upon seeing Cheng Yuan, Zhou Shilong bowed respectfully. "Third Martial Uncle, where are you headed? This disciple can arrange a car for you."

Cheng Yuan didn’t know the address for Celestial Paradise, so he didn’t refuse Zhou Shilong’s kind offer. He said flatly, "Celestial Paradise."

Zhou Shilong immediately arranged for his personal driver, Ah Biao, and instructed him, "Third Martial Uncle is my most honored guest. Whatever he asks for, you must fulfill it without question."

Ah Biao nodded quickly. "Understood!"

After getting in the car, Cheng Yuan gave a curt order, "Get to Celestial Paradise as fast as you possibly can!"

"Yes, sir!"

Ah Biao had been a professional racer before joining the driving team. Since becoming Zhou Shilong’s driver, he hadn’t had a chance to really race, and his hands were itching for it.

Today, he finally had a chance to show what he could do!

A drive that should have taken half an hour, Ah Biao completed in less than ten minutes!

Driving on the wrong side of the road, running red lights—nothing could stop the car’s frantic pace!

SCREEECH...

Ah Biao executed a clean, stylish drift, parking the car right at the main entrance of Celestial Paradise.

The valet at Celestial Paradise recognized Zhou Shilong’s car and immediately sent word to the manager, Wei Tian.

Hearing that Brother Long had arrived, Wei Tian rushed out to greet him. But to Wei Tian’s surprise, the person who stepped out of the car was an unfamiliar young man.

Unsure of what to do, Wei Tian sidled up to Ah Biao and asked in a low voice, "Brother Ah Biao, who is this?"

Ah Biao didn’t know Cheng Yuan’s identity either, but judging from Zhou Shilong’s attitude toward him, Ah Biao figured Cheng Yuan’s background was earth-shatteringly huge!

Ah Biao didn’t answer, just gave a mysterious thumbs-up.

Wei Tian sucked in a sharp breath!

’From Ah Biao’s gesture, this man must be a very close friend of Brother Long’s.’

’Could this young man be a scion from one of the top families in Gui City or Lin City?’

Wei Tian quickly bowed. "Sir, I am Wei Tian, the manager of Celestial Paradise. We warmly welcome you to our establishment to provide your guidance."

Cheng Yuan strode into Celestial Paradise, pulling out his phone as he walked. He found a photo of He Zhixuan and asked expressionlessly, "Tell me what private room she’s in."

Wei Tian had never seen He Zhixuan before and could only shake his head with a wry smile. "Sir, I haven’t seen this young lady, but the front desk probably has!"

With that, Wei Tian beckoned to Xiaoyu at the front desk.

Xiaoyu hurried over, looking at Wei Tian with an eager-to-please expression. "Manager, you needed me for something?"

Wei Tian pointed to Cheng Yuan’s phone. "Have you seen this young lady? What room is she in?"

After getting a clear look at He Zhixuan’s photo, Xiaoyu’s pupils contracted slightly, and her gaze became shifty. "I... I have seen her, but..."

Wei Tian snapped, "But what? Stop wasting time! Spit it out!"

Since President Wei had put it that way, Xiaoyu didn’t dare hide it any longer. "The young lady is in the Celestial Hall!"

The Celestial Hall?

Hearing this, the color drained from Wei Tian’s face!

’Isn’t that the room President Zheng is in?’

’President Zheng is Prince Duan’s illegitimate son! If anything happens, I’m a dead man!’

Cheng Yuan couldn’t care less about any of that. He said coldly, "Where is the Celestial Hall? Lead the way!"

Wei Tian didn’t move. He asked with an awkward smile, "Sir, the Celestial Hall has already been booked by a distinguished guest. How about this? I can open up another room for you!"

Cheng Yuan couldn’t be bothered to waste words with Wei Tian. He activated his Double Pupil and scanned his surroundings.

His gaze instantly pierced through dozens of private rooms, seeing all the sordid activities happening inside with perfect clarity!

Under normal circumstances, Cheng Yuan would have been disturbed by the sight, making him wish he could fly back to Lin Ruoxi’s side immediately.

But right now, he had no time for such thoughts!

Finally, Cheng Yuan saw two familiar figures!

Pei Yuanbin and Liu Ruyan!

Cheng Yuan’s gaze swept past the two of them and landed on He Zhixuan inside the room! He happened to see the exact moment He Zhixuan bit down hard on Zheng Longxiang’s ear!

A surge of satisfaction shot through Cheng Yuan!

But in the next second, his face turned as dark as ink!

Zheng Longxiang was actually hitting He Zhixuan?

’Courting death!’

’Even though he already had Lin Ruoxi and couldn’t make any promises to He Zhixuan...’

’...he couldn’t just stand by and do nothing for a girl he admired, a girl who liked him!’

’Senior, I, Cheng Yuan, have failed to live up to your affections!’

’Since I can’t spend my life with you, then I’ll give you a lifetime of prosperity!’

’As long as I, Cheng Yuan, am here, no one can bully you!’

With a flicker of movement, Cheng Yuan shot straight toward the Celestial Hall!

Wei Tian instinctively reached out to grab Cheng Yuan, but with his meager strength, how could he possibly stop him?

Wei Tian’s face fell. ’This is bad, this is a disaster!’

Wei Tian quickly grabbed his walkie-talkie and roared, "All security team members, converge on the Celestial Hall! Protect President Zheng!"

"Yes, sir!"

The security guards of Celestial Paradise sprang into action, rushing toward the Celestial Hall!

Cheng Yuan, of course, paid no mind to such trivial matters. He kicked open the door to the Celestial Hall, startling Pei Yuanbin and Liu Ruyan, who were tangled together!

The two sprang apart as if they’d been electrocuted.

Liu Ruyan instinctively clutched her clothes to cover herself and snapped in fury and embarrassment, "Cheng Yuan! Do you have any decency, you ex-convict? Don’t you know how to knock?"

Up until now, because Liu Ruyan was He Zhixuan’s best friend, Cheng Yuan had always been relatively polite to her.

But now, Cheng Yuan was utterly disgusted by her!

"Decency? You have the nerve to talk to me about decency? A bitch who sells out her own best friend has no right to talk about decency!"

’Bitch?’

Liu Ruyan was furious. How dare this ex-convict, Cheng Yuan, call her a bitch?

’I’ve been too easy on him!’

Liu Ruyan straightened her clothes, strode toward Cheng Yuan, and pointed a finger in his face. "Cheng Yuan, I dare you to say that again!"

SMACK!

Cheng Yuan backhanded her, slapping Liu Ruyan straight to the ground!

"I’d rather use my fists than waste my breath!"

Liu Ruyan was stunned by the blow. She couldn’t believe it. Not only had this ex-convict Cheng Yuan cursed at her, he had actually dared to hit her!

Liu Ruyan struggled to her feet, glaring at Cheng Yuan with a venomous gaze.

"Cheng Yuan, you’re insane! You must be! You hit me? Fine! I’ll sue you for everything you’re worth! I’ll make sure you rot in prison for the rest of your life!"

"Get out of my way! If a single hair on my Senior’s head is harmed, all of you are dead today!!"

Cheng Yuan shoved Liu Ruyan aside and charged toward the door to the inner room!

The color drained from Liu Ruyan’s and Pei Yuanbin’s faces. They both shouted at the same time.

"Cheng Yuan! Do you have any idea who’s in there? I’m telling you, don’t be reckless! If you are, there won’t even be dust left of you when he’s done!"

"You, with the surname Cheng! You’d better know your place! The person in there isn’t someone an ex-convict like you can afford to provoke! With a single word, he could have your entire family line wiped out!"

Unfortunately for them, Cheng Yuan ignored their threats.

BANG!

Cheng Yuan kicked the door to the inner room wide open!
