It’s Payback Time: Don’t Mess With Me - Chapter 382
Killing intent flashed in Suzy’s eyes when she heard her uncle.
“Who is it?” Suzy asked coldly
“The Xue gang, the Ming gang and the Du gang from the western province have combined force to deal with the Dark Knight organization”
“How strong are the enemy?” Suzy asked further
“With the combined force of the three organization, though they are not on equal footing with the dark Knight they are not bad. If the combined force and dark knight organization ends up fighting then the consequence will be dire. And moreover, Kim corporations finance is tight at the current movement due to several business projects. If the three alliance really ends up fighting with the dark knight then even the Kim corporation will suffer the consequence” Shadows assistant uncle explained
“Seems like the three alliance have long been waiting to wage a war but they were just waiting for the right moment”
“So, what do you plan to do now?”
“Since they dared to extend their claws on my hubby, they will have to pay for the consequences. Get Shanaya to deal with the problem. She had been calling me repeatedly asking for missions. I’m sure she will like this mission”
“Ok, got it”
“Good, but notify her to do everything in secret. Don’t let Kim tan find that it was the Cobras who helped them” Suzy reminded
“Sure, I will notify her”
“hmm, good. Ah! by the way, which family does these three organization belong to?” Suzy asked nonchalantly
“The Xue organization belongs to Xue’s main family, the Ming gang belongs to the Shi family but the situation of the Du gang is quite different. People think that Du gang belongs to Ye family but in truth, it is handled by the Song family”
“Song family? Interesting. Seems like I will have to attend the charity banquet arranged by the Song family” Suzy smirked
About instructing her uncle to take care of a few more things, Suzy hung up the call and got back to business.
Time passed and it was already Saturday. Dressed in a pale yellow long gown, Suzy walked inside the charity banquet elegantly. Behind her was Luo Shen dressed in a grey suit and white shirt who followed behind Suzy closely. Whenever a reporter wanted to confront Suzy, Luo Shen would block them saying that this was not the right place to interview or so and so. Hence with Luo Shen acting like a strict bodyguard, Suzy was able to avoid all the reporters and enter the banquet safely.
Inside the banquet, many higher officials were gathered in groups and were chattering about business. group of middle age woman dressed luxurious clothes were sitting on the lounge and were laughing at something. In the middle of the group was a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her early thirties but in truth, she was already fifty years old. Clinking her glasses with the ladies, she gulped it down and smiled at them.
Noticing Suzy from the corner of her eyes, a glint past from her eyes. Excusing herself from the group of ladies, Madam Song walk towards Suzy and held her hands before she called out “Oh my, you look so beautiful today Ms. Suzy”
Nodding her head at Madam Song, Suzy replied politely “Madam Song is too polite. It’s madam Song who looks so beautiful that someone might mistake you as a Young Woman in her early twenties”
Pleased, Madam Song laughed loudly “Haha….this child, you have such a sweet tongue. Come let me introduce you to people”
Taking Suzy’s hand, Madam Song pulled her around the hall, introducing her several big figures. Though Suzy did not know what was Madam Song’s purpose, she still let Madam Song drag her around the hall. Anyway, in the end, it was still beneficial for her by making some connections so she greeted everyone politely and clinked glasses.
For an hour or so Suzy was dragged around the hall by Madam Song to introduce her to the people. It was only when another important official arrived was Suzy set free. Rubbing her wrist which was aching, Suzy turned to Luo Shen and asked “Did you find anything suspicious?”
Shaking his head, Lou Shen replied “No, other than a few reporters around I did not find anything suspicious”
Hearing that Suzy frowned “That’s not right. According to my memory, this is my first time meeting madam song. Other than seeing her with Mr. Song on the headlines once, I have never seen her less meet her but why was she too close to me? Not only was she over-friendly she even took me around and introduced me to many business clients”
“hmmm….something must be wrong. Should I go check once again?” Luo Shen asked
Waving her hands, Suzy replied indifferently “Forget it! sooner or later we will find it out. Just be attentive and keep an eye on her action”
“Hmm…okay got it. Ahh, by the way, Your stepmother and father have arrived and your step sister has also arrived with her partner”
Raising her eyebrows, Suzy chuckled “What a surprise for the family of three to appear at the same banquet? Seems like Madam Song’s behavior must have something to do with the three of them”
“I guess the same…anyway let’s put these things aside for now. The bidding is about to begin. Let’s go inside”
Nodding his head, Luo Shen escorted Suzy to the large hall where the bidding was about to take place.
Once again Suzy was surprised when she saw that her seat was arranged in the VIP area. What more, the Li family was also arranged to sit right next to her seat which surprised her very much. For a moment Suzy had a bad premonition.
Just as Suzy was still in deep thought, Li Chao and Feng Mian walked to her and smiled to her politely but the latter chose to ignore and pretended not to see them.
Soon after the bidding officially started and many things were brought on the stage but Suzy was the least bit interested on them. Other than bidding for a jade ornament that was suitable for old ladies, Suzy was the least bit interested on other things. It was only when the last item that was a nine blue sea necklace was brought on the stage was Suzy finally excited. Without thinking much, Suzy asked Luo Shen to bid for it thinking to present it to her mother in law.
But just as Luo Shen raised the bid, Li Xiying had also raised for the bit hence along with other competitors, Suzy and Li Xiying also started to fight for this rare precious necklace but the end it was still Suzy who won the bet whereas Li Xiying could only glare at Suzy with a hateful and jealous gaze.
Just as people thought the bidding was over, Madam Son suddenly emerged on the stage holding a mic and looked at the people below with a wide smile.
“To all respective guests, I thank with my heart for attending the bidding and helping us to collect enough charity. But today, right here I would like to make a very important announcement. Soon the Song family and the Li family will be bind with a marriage. The youngest son of the Song family Song Mo Chen and the eldest daughter of the Li family, Suzy is going to get engaged the next week. I hope all the respective guest will attend their banquet and wish them a very happy life”
