YM778.TV Chapter 142 - Name Game.
Yang Dao immediately fell silent as soon as he heard this comment. He was not a dog, just extremely in love with food. How was he to know that his friend would joke on him? Well, he shook his head and suddenly heard a silky voice.
"Son, why are you here? The guests are all asking for you." the owner of this sultry voice was a brown-haired woman, seemingly in her thirties. She had a well-maintained figure. A lot of young hearts would twitch with the sway of her waist. (Too bad Yang Dao is a proper gent and has a stable heart.)
Icarus sighed and said, "Mom, you know I don\'t like this high society facade. Also, this is the guy I have been wanting to introduce to you and dad, but that old man is busy flexing his wine collection to those old perverts."
That is Icarus for you, straightforward and frank. The lady shook her head. She was helpless with this child of hers. She gazed at Yang Dao and nodded at him. She said, "Hello, I am Adriana Stern. Icarus is my son."
Yang Dao stepped forward and bowed to her slightly as he said, "Feng Yang Dao, thank you for having me here."
Adriana was surprised and smiled. She said, "As expected of Young Master Feng, you carry yourself with the etiquettes of a noble."
Yang Dao shook his head and said, "None is noble and none is a pleb, we all feel hungry and we all bleed red. I am just a human."
His words shocked Adriana. She did not expect this guy to throw a quote of his own in return for her praise. She liked him more, as the boy was neither too humble nor too arrogant. She nodded and said, "Very well said."
Icarus smirked. The reason he introduced Yang Dao especially to his family was to mostly make his mother not worry about his peer. The reason Icarus was indifferent to wealth and glamour was because of his mother. Adriana has always taught him to be humble and frank. Even to date, Icarus was given a monthly allowance and anything that he needs is bought for him by his mother.
Adriana exchanged a few words of courtesy with Yang Dao and then left to look after some things. Icarus asked the boy, "What do you think of my mother Dao?"
The boy replied, "She is kind." with a smile on his face.
Genie Jasper was also a part of the conversation but since she already knew the stern family since childhood, her views were not very significant. Icarus and the two returned to the reception hall. Yang Dao was introduced to a lot of rich scions. They all became surprised and eager to talk to Young Master Feng.
Some of the older guys even asked him if his sister was single. Yang Dao did not even bother to reply to these dogs in heat. He just walked around the hall with Icarus and Genie. While the birthday boy played host with the visitors, the two people sampled all the snacks and juices being served.
They did so in a not so conspicuous manner. it would not be nice if the crowd started pointing fingers at them. Unknowingly Genie Jasper has begun her path of becoming a foodie. she asked, "Say, Dao, why are you not fat after such a diet?"
The boy replied, "I am a cyclist plus I work out to burn the calories I intake." he sampled a fresh grape as he said this.
Genie nodded and asked, "Can I ask you a favor?" her voice was quite low all of a sudden.
Yang Dao nodded and asked, "Yeah, what is it?"
The girl replied, "You see, there is a guy who is here with me. He is also a student in the Crypto nation and is a rich scion there. I have told him many times that I have no interest in him yet he still bothers me. Can you do something about it?"
She deliberately molded her words. How could she ask this guy to be her shield? Yang Dao raised his brows in surprise. He asked, "Will he not mess with your transfer procedure?"
Genie shook her head and said, "It is already complete just waiting to receive the documents by post. You can rest assured. If you have any problems then you can forget about this matter. I will think of something else."
Yang Dao shook his head, "I have no business in Crypto nation. Sister Yun also pulled out of there after killing the market. So it\'s okay." he assured her.
As they say, speak of the devil and the devil appears. Genie stood a little closer to Yang Dao and said, "See, here he comes."
Yang Dao raised his head for a bit. he saw a man dressed in a maroon suit walking toward them. Behind him, two bodyguards followed. The boy did not bother and kept eating the snacks in his hand.
The young man in maroon said, "Genie, I have been looking around for you. How are you doing? Do you like this party or if you do not find it nice here I can arrange something better for you."
Genie shook her head and said, "You call me Miss Jasper, Mister Browns. Also, I am having a good time with my friends, if you would please go away and not ruin the lovely ambiance, it would be nice of you for a change."
The guy was called Ashton Browns, heir to the Liquor king of Crypto nation. He had immense wealth and thus did not put anyone in his eyes. His smiling face was now looking cold. He asked, "Who might your friend be? I wonder if I can meet her?"
In his mind, Genie was his property. In Crypto nation, he never let any guys waltz around her. Those who did were broken. The one thing he could never control was Icarus talking to Genie. This time his main goal was to deal with Icarus.
Genie did not reply and held Yang Dao\'s hand. She said, "Let\'s go."
Her gesture caught Ashton Browns\' attention. He asked, "Oh, so you are the friend. Well, friend, now that you have spent enough time with her, should I have some time with her?" he spoke with a genial tone yet the emphasis on the latter half of the sentence increased by a lot.
Yang Dao raised his head and asked, "You are from the crypto nation, right?"
Ashton nodded with pride. Yang Dao asked again, "So do you wear the maroon suit to compensate for the red armband for the visitors?" his question made the others freeze.
A lot of people had seen Ashton Browns acting cocky and were displeased with him. At this moment, Yang Dao\'s pun was no less than a slap to the former. The guards behind Ashton acted, "You bastard, how dare you ant, talk like this. They charged at Yang Dao abruptly.
The boy ducked to save the food in his hands from falling and launched a swift kick to the man\'s knee. Everyone heard a click sound. The second guard suddenly took out a foldable baton from the inside of his coat but he was also kicked.
Yang Dao dodged to the side and delivered a roundhouse kick to the guard\'s head. Instantly knocked down. He did not give anyone time to recover and picked out his phone. He called the police, "Hello, I would like to register an assault complaint..."
He provided an address and everything so that the police could easily get to the location. He watched as the first bodyguard was still wailing. Yang Dao shook his head and hit the back of his neck, making him unconscious.
Ashton browns wanted to cuss him but he clenched his fists. He was about to yell at Yang Dao but he controlled his anger. He said, "You will pay for this. I will remember this humiliation. The brown family will definitely get you."
Yang Dao was not the old low-key guy. He hated arrogant young masters. This guy was the same. So he smiled and said, "Are we playing family? Okay, I, Feng Yang Dao, accept your challenge. Do try your best and come at me with all you have. I would like to see how you make me pay for this."
Ashton was shocked by the readiness of this guy. Then he recalled the whole thing Yang Dao just said, he asked, "What did you say your name was?" a little dazed.
Yang Dao smiled and said, "My name is Feng Yang Dao." he only emphasized the \'is\' Well, this was enough to scare Ashton Browns. He trembled slightly. In his eyes, Yang Dao became a devil all of a sudden.
He was aware of the reason why his whole country was facing the current situation. Was it not because of a guy who beat the citizen of their nation and when the thing spread like a virus the forces even wanted to kill this guy but they could only retreat in defeat.
Brown family had their own force that was contracted by some tycoons to dispose of this guy, the whole force was wiped out by a force. Ashton Browns only now recalled the pictures of the old target. His pupils dilated, he asked, "You are the young master of The Phoenix Group?"
He thought he was the tallest here. Rich of the Crypto Nation. Only now did he realize what was the pressure of a name.
