203: Things have gotten tense!
Thirty-two billion is an astronomical figure; even if his Zheng Family is wealthy and powerful, suddenly withdrawing that much cash would be severely crippling.
Therefore, when he heard Wang Zhennan demand 32 billion, his expression became extremely ugly; he knew well that the other party was doing this on purpose.
As for those so-called rules, they were pure nonsense.
"Manager Wang, 32 billion is not a small sum anywhere. Don't you think it's a bit excessive to demand 32 billion right off the bat?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhennan showed no intention of backing down. He spread his hands and said carelessly, "Although what you say makes sense, the rules of the Heavenly Palace Hotel were set by our boss, and I can't change them."
Zheng Yongnian grew even more enraged upon hearing Wang Zhennan use Wang Shaojun to pressure him, as he had already suffered significant losses from previous events, even having to forfeit the Jiahe Hotel.
Thinking of this, he stared intently at Wang Zhennan and said in a low voice, "So, there's no room for negotiation? Regarding the matter between the Zheng Family and your boss, I can personally apologize, and I can even pay the 32 billion. How about we wipe the slate clean from now on?
It's much better to have one more friend than one more enemy. What do you think, Manager Wang?"
When the crowd heard these words, they grew even more confused.
The dignified Patriarch Zheng would actually humble himself like this.
Although the Heavenly Palace Group is very powerful, as the saying goes, this is Macau. The Zheng Family, as a century-old family in Macau, is a genuine local tyrant and not easy to provoke.
However, hearing what the other party said, they could easily tell that there was an irreconcilable conflict between the Zheng Family and Wang Shaojun.
No wonder Wang Zhennan was so ruthless; he likely received instructions from Wang Shaojun behind the scenes.
Just as everyone thought Wang Zhennan would make a concession, who would have thought that he showed no intention of yielding? "Since Patriarch Zheng denies this evidence, I have nothing more to say. You can take the chips and the person right now."
After speaking, he said coldly, "Someone, help Patriarch Zheng cash out the chips. Patriarch Zheng, our Second Miss and Third Young Master are still here, so I won't accompany you further. Please leave."
Seeing Wang Zhennan’s firm stance, rage surged in Zheng Yongnian's heart. He finally understood that Wang Shaojun never intended to let the Zheng Family off the hook.
Now, he had conveniently provided the excuse himself.
However... he had lowered his stance so much, yet the other party remained unyielding. As the saying goes, even a clay figure has a temper.
"Hmph, let's go!"
Looking at Wang Zhennan's smiling face, Zheng Yongnian couldn't help but let out a cold snort, then turned and left with Zheng Tianhong.
Watching their angry retreating figures, the crowd fell into a brief silence.
Then their brows furrowed. This was a complete fallout!
"It seems Macau is going to be quite restless from now on."
"What makes you say that?"
"Seriously, are you blind or deaf? Didn't you hear the sharp, cutting nature of their conversation? Clearly, there was an irreconcilable conflict between the two sides beforehand.
Now, because of the Zheng Tianhong incident, it's like a powder keg. Without a spark, everyone is safe and sound.
But Zheng Tianhong insisted on lighting the fuse right now. Looking at the current situation, they are finished.
That guy accidentally lit the powder keg. An explosion is definitely coming; the only question is how long the fuse is."
With Zheng Yongnian gone, the crowd dispersed, and the casino floor returned to normal operation.
Wang Yuxin held her streaming phone, glanced at the comments, and said softly, "My dear Eggs, you've seen the casino floor. There isn't much to see in the other parts of the Heavenly Palace Hotel, so I won't take you to look at them one by one.
If you are interested, come to Macau when you have time; you can eat, drink, and play! Fans get a discount when they spend at the Heavenly Palace Hotel.
Well then, that concludes today's broadcast. We're going offline now."
Saying this, she pulled Xiao Anyi closer. The latter instantly understood, smiling gently at the camera, "Hello, my Egg Babies, we'll see you in the next stream."
[A discount? Is it a discount until the bones break?]
[Holy crap, this is what you call a benefit, this is the benefit.]
[White-faced Steamed Bun is truly too beautiful! The phrase 'a single glance captivates, making all other beauties fade' must be talking about White-faced Steamed Bun.]
[Hehe, she seemed to call me Baby. Baby~ Hehe~]
[I’m finished, I’m finished. White-faced Steamed Bun calling someone 'Baby' instantly stole the minds of countless young men. This is comparable to the Super Boss in Plants vs. Zombies.]
[A guy like the one above is comparable to terminal cancer; he’s beyond saving. Even if cured, he’d still be the drooling kind.]
[Although that's true, White-faced Steamed Bun's smile is so therapeutic. When she smiles, I feel like my whole being becomes light and airy.]
Xiao Anyi covered her mouth and chuckled softly as she looked at the exaggerated comments.
It was fine when she didn't smile, but that single smile instantly captured the hearts of countless young men.
[Ahhhh~ White-faced Steamed Bun, so beautiful, I can't handle it!]
[Hehehe~ White-faced Steamed Bun, my White-faced Steamed Bun gave me a shy smile. Hehe~ So beautiful.]
[Well, there goes another one gone dumb. Duck Egg Superman, hurry up and end the stream, or the hospitals will run out of beds.]
Wang Yuxin didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this. These guys were something else; she couldn't tell if they were serious or joking.
Nevertheless, she raised her hand to close the live stream, then turned to Xiao Anyi and teased, "Xiao An Yi, did you see how crazy those fans are for you? What kind of scene would it be if we held a fan meeting or a concert?"
Hearing this, Xiao Anyi immediately recalled the scene in the live stream and suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
"I... I don't know. I can't even imagine a scene like that."
However, her gentle voice, paired with her quiet smile, made even Wang Yuxin unable to stop staring.
"Yuxin? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
"Xiao An Yi, I think I understand why they are so crazy. It's simply because you are too beautiful; every frown and smile is captivating. Now I worry whether Zixuan will be chased and attacked with a knife whenever he goes out."
Hearing this, Xiao Anyi glanced at Wang Zixuan, who was not far away, and laughed, "He really is handsome enough to get chopped, hahahaha."
"Sis, Xiao An Yi, what are you two talking about that's so funny?"
"Nothing. Xiao An Yi said you are too handsome, so remember to wear a mask when you go out, lest someone chases you down with a knife."
After saying this, she couldn't help but throw her head back and laugh heartily, instantly losing all trace of her Big Miss demeanor.
Wang Zixuan felt confused upon hearing this. He raised a hand to touch his face and mumbled, "Am I really that handsome?"
Just then, Wang Zhennan suddenly walked toward them, and only then did Wang Yuxin stop laughing.
She even realized she had been somewhat undignified and secretly vowed to maintain her composure regardless of what happened in the future.
