Murano Momo is a cunning doctor

Chapter 1049 Hongmen Banquet

The roar of the engine came from far away, and the dazzling light poked towards them unreasonably.

The beam of light just covered Jiang Xiaochuan in the middle, shining brightly.

The strong light was blinding, and Jiang Xiaochuan subconsciously squinted his eyes, his pupils shrinking into two sharp golden points under the strong light.

"Squeak!"

There was a sharp sound of brakes, and two luxury cars as black as coffins stopped next to Jiang Xiaochuan.

The passenger door of the car in front slid open silently.

A middle-aged man wearing a well-tailored dark gray suit and meticulously combed hair got out of the car with a swift movement.

The man quickly walked around the front of the car and stopped a few steps in front of Jiang Xiaochuan. He bent down slightly and said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, you really made it hard for me to find you."

Jiang Xiaochuan just looked at him coldly, knowing clearly in his mind: this place is remote, and it is no coincidence that the other party could find it.

The more you pretend to be a humble and good person, the more it shows that there are shameful problems hidden behind you.

"and who are you?"

Jiang Xiaochuan said in a deep voice.

"again?"

The middle-aged man was puzzled, but the smile on his face did not change at all: "My surname is Weng, and my given name is Jin. I make a living in the Huangfu family as an errand boy. If you don't mind, Mr. Jiang, you can just call me Old Man."

"Huangfu family!"

Jiang Xiaochuan felt a chill in his heart, and when he heard these three words, his breath almost couldn't help but waver slightly.

An invisible sense of oppression subconsciously spread towards Weng Jin, scaring him.

Weng Jin waved his hands hastily, a look of panic on his face. "Young Master Jiang, please don't misunderstand! I didn't mean to disturb your peace and quiet at this time. Our master has personally sent a message, and we sincerely want to invite you over to sit down. Could you please… do me the honor?"

He spoke very politely, even with a hint of pleading.

Listening to Weng Jin's flawless and extremely humble speech, Jiang Xiaochuan sneered.

Sending someone to kill him like just now was expected, but sending someone to invite him for a talk at this time was simply absurd.

Jiang Xiaochuan was certain that the man in black was from the Huangfu family.

In the capital, the only ones with such great power are the Huangfu family and Situ Hong.

But Situ Hong? That guy was as timid as a mouse. He was scared to death before, and the shadow of fear in his heart did not dissipate so quickly.

Logically speaking, I would never dare to offend him again at this time.

After eliminating all of these, the only possible candidate is the Huangfu family!

It turns out that this hypocritical trick of laughing in front of others and stabbing them in the back is not only played by Huangfu Yuan, but the entire Huangfu family seems to have mastered it and it is a inherited skill!

Knowing that he couldn't escape tonight, Jiang Xiaochuan calmed down instead.

His gaze penetrated the car in front and fixed on the dark rear window of the car behind. "Let them get out."

The muscles on Weng Jin's face twitched imperceptibly, and he said stubbornly, "Young Master Jiang, what...what do you mean? The latter are just ordinary bodyguards ensuring safety on the road... They are of low status, and it is really...really inconvenient for them to come down and offend you..."

"inconvenient?"

Jiang Xiaochuan sneered. This guy's ability to play dumb was beyond his expectation.

Since the other party was not in a hurry to fight immediately, he was happy to take the opportunity to recover a little bit of the strength he had just consumed.

"That old fellow who was at the Half-Step Nirvana Realm and nearly killed me just now, wasn't he the vanguard sent by your Huangfu family to 'invite' me?"

Upon hearing this, the confusion and fear on Weng Jin's face instantly turned into genuine bewilderment. "Young Master Jiang! Where do you get that from?! I... when I was ordered here, I had no idea this was happening! The patriarch only told me to come and invite people, there was absolutely no other arrangement! Did you misunderstand something?"

Jiang Xiaochuan's eyes moved slightly. Weng Jin's reaction... was indeed a bit unexpected. The momentary surprise did not seem fake.

He glanced at the car behind him again. "Are these two here to prevent me from running away? Or, if I don't know what's best for you, to help you get me in the car?"

"This……"

Situ Jin was choked, and the expression on his face changed again and again. The layer of "friendly uncle" skin finally couldn't hold on, revealing the cold calculation underneath.

He was silent for two seconds. When he spoke again, although he was still smiling, his tone was extremely cold: "Young Master Jiang, you are a truly smart man. Why do you have to be so clear about some things? The Patriarch's intentions cannot be compromised!"

Knowing that Jiang Xiaochuan would not give in so easily, just when Weng Jin was wondering whether he should let the two "bodyguards" behind him take action -

"Snapped!"

A crisp snap of fingers.

Jiang Xiaochuan withdrew his gaze, and all the expressions on his face disappeared in an instant, leaving only an indeterminate calmness.

He looked at Weng Jin, and even a puzzling smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Okay," he said lightly, "Since Patriarch Huangfu is so kind, let's go."

"Just like that... you agreed?!

After being immersed in the Huangfu family for many years, Weng Jin believed that he was already accustomed to the treacherous nature and intrigues of human nature.

But this time, the mission was filled with weirdness from beginning to end.

Huangfu Jingzhai actually went to so much trouble to "invite" this person who had repeatedly caused the family to suffer.

It is extremely unusual in itself to even go and have a talk with a "stumbling block" that may involve major interests.

Although he was not clear about the master's deeper intentions, this was clearly a Hongmen Banquet where he would face death.

If he were Jiang Xiaochuan, and were in such a situation, he would definitely try every possible means, even if it meant a fight to the death, he would definitely try to escape!

It was for this reason that he specially invited two grandmaster-level priests to join him.

This means being fully prepared for the possibility that the other party will never cooperate and that forceful action must be taken to subdue and take them away.

But Jiang Xiaochuan...actually agreed so easily?

And he agreed so calmly, even...what's the meaning of that smile on his lips?

This is so abnormal!

Weng Jin's alarm bells were ringing wildly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Or, this person has absolute self-confidence and an unknown deep foundation, and is not afraid of dangers at all.

Or...he is a complete lunatic who doesn't know whether to live or die!

But through his understanding and analysis of Jiang Xiaochuan's past behavior style, Weng was extremely sure that this person was definitely not the latter!

So what exactly is his confidence?!

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Weng Jin put on a professional and respectful smile again.

He turned sideways and made a standard and impeccable "please" gesture, his voice even more respectful than before, "Mr. Jiang, you are very understanding! Please get in the car."

The driver standing by immediately trotted over and respectfully opened the back door.

The vehicle drove smoothly away from its original location and merged into the night traffic of the capital.

The atmosphere in the car was so oppressive that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it.
