26: Chen Xian's special method!

Hearing this, Chen Xian sneered and said, "So, you're unwilling to serve me?"

"Fine, I'll file a complaint against you immediately!"

After saying that, he made a move to stand up.

However, in the next second, Zhou Duoer was so scared that she hurriedly said, "I'll serve you food, I'll serve you..."

At this moment, someone finally couldn't stand it anymore.

They couldn't help but say, "Chen Xian, do you have any shame? What kind of skill is it to bully a young girl?"

"Hehe, I'd like to bully you instead, but are you even worthy?"

His single sentence immediately made the speaker flush with anger.

The man stood up at once and said angrily, "Chen Xian, your father is already dead! Don't think you can still do whatever you want in this city!"

Chen Xian sneered.

"Is that so?"

He stood up and said, "My father is indeed dead, but his connections are not."

"The favors he left me, though they diminish with each use, don't forget—at least I have them."

"You, or any of you sitting here who wants to try me, feel free to step forward!"

His words...

...made the scene fall into a dead silence.

That's right!

Although the Marquis of Jubei was dead...

...his connections still remained.

Don't just look at him as a mere Marquis!

In the Da Gan Dynasty, that might not be much, but don't forget, this wasn't a simple Marquis, not a civilian one, but a Marquis who had achieved illustrious military merits!

This Marquis, who had guarded the borders and held great power, had protégés and old subordinates all over the North Continent.

Though he was a Marquis, his words were more effective than those of a King.

Chen Xian saying this proved he definitely had confidence in his heart.

This group of people all remained silent.

Even the man who wanted to stand up for justice just now sat back down at this moment.

The bird that sticks its head out gets shot!

It wasn't worth offending this madman over a young girl he didn't even know!

Indeed, in the eyes of these people now, Chen Xian was a madman.

Chen Xian then looked at Zhou Duoer.

"Now, can you feed me?"

Zhou Duoer felt like she wanted to die right now.

Feeding him!

How could she do such a thing?

But this man's power was right here.

Even in this full hall, not a single person dared to speak up for her.

Zhou Duoer sniffled.

She had no choice but to tremblingly pick up some food and bring it to Chen Xian's lips.

However, Chen Xian suddenly stood up.

The meat on the chopsticks quickly rubbed against his magnificent robes.

Slap!

Chen Xian slammed the table fiercely.

"Go, call your manager here!"

A moment later, Nie Hongshuang hurried over.

Seeing the food stains on this lord's clothes, she inwardly cursed her bad luck.

"Tell me, how does your Juxian Tower intend to resolve this?"

Nie Hongshuang said with an awkward smile, "Young Master, you tell us!"

Chen Xian said with a smile, "If you ask me, I actually have a good impression of your Juxian Tower. Not only is it an independent existence within Jubei City, but it also ensures safety here and never causes trouble!"

"However..."

His gaze fell upon Zhou Duoer.

"Certain individuals are simply not worthy of working here. It will also affect the reputation of your Juxian Tower..."

He had already said this much.

How could Nie Hongshuang not know what Chen Xian meant?

She immediately cleared her throat.

"Zhou Duoer, you don't need to come to work here anymore."

"Sister Nie, I..."

"I don't wish to say it a second time."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Chen Xian with a smile.

"I wonder if Young Master is satisfied with this handling?"

Chen Xian nodded with a smile.

"Mhm!"

Zhou Duoer wiped her tears, packed her small bundle, and walked out miserably.

At this time, Chen Xian also hurriedly followed her out.

He had finally managed to get her out of Juxian Tower; if he lost her now, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain!

That's right.

From the very beginning, Chen Xian wasn't really trying to make things difficult for Zhou Duoer.

In the morning, he had inquired about Zhou Duoer from many people; many saw her delicate appearance and wanted to take her as a maid, but Zhou Duoer would rather die than comply.

Chen Xian knew then that this girl definitely couldn't be dealt with using money or power.

The only way was to make her fall into an even greater crisis.

Thus, there was the scene of making things difficult in the morning, all for the purpose of severing her connection with Juxian Tower.

As for once she was outside, without the protection of Juxian Tower...

...whether she was rounded or flattened would be entirely up to him to manipulate.

Although there was a risk of offending Juxian Tower—after all, those who caused trouble here were few and far between—for a descendant of the Divine Phoenix Clan...

...Chen Xian felt these risks were worth it.

Especially with his status, if he didn't cause trouble and acted like a perfect gentleman in Juxian Tower, it would only make people suspicious.

If the number one playboy of Jubei City wasn't overbearing and arrogant, would he still be himself?

Fortunately, everything up to this point was progressing quite smoothly!

After Chen Xian left, the lobby of Juxian Tower returned to its usual bustle.

However, everyone's topics shifted from daily news to collectively complaining about Chen Xian.

Nie Hongshuang was also full of helplessness seeing this.

This Heir was now repeatedly dancing on the edge of Juxian Tower's rules.

Making things difficult for a Juxian Tower servant!

Though the matter was small, it had given Juxian Tower an embarrassment!

She could almost guarantee that this man would die a miserable death in the future... South Street of Jubei City.

Zhou Duoer walked into a winding, dilapidated alley and pushed open her thatched cottage.

Upon returning home, she began wiping her tears!

She had clearly just found a place to settle down here.

Was she going to have to leave again!

But in the vast North Continent, was there really no place for her to make a living?

Just then.

A person walked in from outside.

When Zhou Duoer saw this man, she felt as if she were facing a great enemy!

"You followed me?"

"I've already lost my job, what else do you want?"

Chen Xian said rogueishly, "Lost your job? The clothes on This Young Master are worth three thousand Spirit Stones! You stained them for me, what should be done about it?"

Zhou Duoer shrank into the corner in fear.

"Then what do you want to do? I only have one Spirit Stone!"

Chen Xian said "ferociously," "No Spirit Stones? That's easy! Be my servant. Three meals of steamed buns a day, and two Spirit Stones a month! You can only leave when you've saved enough Spirit Stones!"

"I..."

"If you don't agree, I'll send you to the government office right now. After all, I am a reasonable person!"

Zhou Duoer looked at Chen Xian's wicked smile.

No matter how she looked at it, she didn't think he was a person who would be reasonable.

"I'll give you five seconds to consider."

"Five!"

"Four!"

"Three!"

"I agree!"

Zhou Duoer shouted with her eyes closed.

"However, are you sure you only want three thousand Spirit Stones and nothing else?"

Chen Xian gave her a look of disdain.

"What else do you have that's worth my wanting?"

"Don't delude yourself into thinking This Young Master would take an interest in you. In This Young Master's eyes, you're not even as good as those other servants. If This Young Master hadn't been short of a servant lately, you wouldn't even be able to get in line even if you paid!"
