Damn! The Protagonist Is About to Show Off!

The Su Household wanted to call off the engagement?!

In an instant, the many guests present were completely stunned. One by one, they froze in place, eyes wide as they subconsciously looked toward Su Bai and Xiao Fan.

Call off the engagement?

What engagement were they calling off?

They had never heard that the Su and Xiao Households had an engagement arrangement.

"I think I once heard the old man at home mention that the Su and Xiao Households had some sort of betrothal arranged before birth, but Miss Su was too young, so no one ever took it seriously..."

Just then, someone in the crowd said those words, and surprise and suspicion appeared on everyone's faces.

It was a little hard to believe!

Xiao Fan, meanwhile, looked utterly bewildered. His mouth hung open as he stared helplessly at his father, as if asking whether this was real or not.

As for Xiao Zhenyang, who had long wished for Xiao Zhenzhong's branch of the family to decline completely, he instantly understood everything. He stood to one side with his son Xiao Hai, watching with a cold sneer.

The Su Household had come with ill intent this time!

At the scene, the smile Xiao Zhenzhong had plastered on his face as he stood before Su Bai instantly froze. The delight in his eyes gradually turned into a trace of anger.

Slowly pulling back his hand, his expression darkened. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Young Master Su, do you know what you're saying?"

A sharp glint flashed through his eyes as he stared fixedly at Xiao Fan, as if advising the young man to use his brain before speaking and not talk nonsense.

At that moment, seeing everyone present focus their attention on him, Su Bai shrugged helplessly and said leisurely, "Calling off the engagement. What else could it be?"

"Back then, your Xiao Household's old master and our Su Household's old master arranged a betrothal before birth. But my sister is about to come of age, and she doesn't like this engagement, so we came to call it off."

"Of course, to compensate your Xiao Household, the Su Household is willing to invest one billion and give it directly to your Xiao Household, lending you a hand!"

His casual words, his indifferent manner, and that one-billion compensation were like tossing money to a beggar on the street. He had clearly never regarded the Xiao Household as worthy of notice. It was naked contempt.

But those words caused a massive uproar!

Everyone pricked up their ears. The bewildered guests all gaped in shock as they looked at Su Bai, unable to stop whispering among themselves.

"Damn, the Su and Xiao Households really have an engagement! One billion just to cancel it? What a huge move!"

"This news is way too explosive. I've never heard about it before, so coming today was worth it! But why did Su Bai come to call off the engagement? Is he looking down on the Xiao Household?"

"Tell me, why did Su Bai specifically choose today to come here? He's probably here to kick them while they're down!"

For a moment, the guests exchanged looks, their expressions complicated and strange. Although Su Bai had mentioned compensation, today was the Xiao Household head's birthday banquet.

Coming to call off an engagement on such a special day made it seem as though he had never put the Xiao Household in his eyes. He was ignoring them, slapping them in the face. The Xiao Household had truly fallen into decline!

Countless people began worrying about their businesses, instinctively considering whether they should find other partners. But the urgent matter now was watching this fine show unfold.

At this moment!

Seeing the matter escalating and his birthday banquet about to be ruined, anger flashed through Xiao Zhenzhong's heart. But because of the Su Household behind Su Bai, he still took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his fury, and spoke in a low voice with a strained smile.

"Today is my birthday. Young Master Su, why not give me some face? How about we step back for now and discuss this in detail tomorrow?" He did not believe a frivolous playboy could make such a decision.

What did one billion matter? The Xiao Household's dignity was what mattered most!

Right now, Xiao Zhenzhong intended to stall Su Bai.

Tomorrow, he would personally visit the Su Household's old master and ask whether he truly intended to go back on the promise he had made with his own old master. Otherwise, his old master would never rest in peace!

At this point, Su Ruoxue, who had been waiting behind them for good news, heard those words. Already feeling somewhat guilty, she immediately felt that since the other side had yielded, they should take a step back as well.

"Brother, how about we forget it? Let's come back tomorrow!"

She immediately moved closer and spoke softly. Su Bai instantly rolled his eyes. Having lived two lives, how could he not see through what the Xiao Household was planning?

They merely wanted to drag things out and complain to the old master.

He had already come to cause trouble today. If he left just like that, he would probably lose his reward, and he would also thoroughly offend Xiao Fan's family.

In the future, he would surely die!

Stupid girl, you may be foolish, but this young master certainly isn't. Since things had already reached this point, he might as well be decisive. His sharp gaze swept over them as he said coldly, "I came today to call off the engagement. This young master does not care about anything else!"

Who did you Xiao Household think you were, asking me to yield? Did you even deserve it?

In an instant, Xiao Fan felt humiliated beyond measure. Today was his father's birthday banquet, yet this man had caused such a disturbance. Unable to hold back any longer, he pointed directly at Su Bai and roared in fury, "Su Bai!"

"Giving your Su Household some face has made you think too highly of yourself. Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"

His bright black eyes stared unceremoniously at Su Bai. He had already etched this man into his heart and would definitely make Su Bai pay the price in the future.

Even if my Xiao Household had declined, it was not something trash like Su Bai could trample at will!

"Today, this engagement will be called off whether you agree or not. I think it's your Xiao Household that shouldn't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!" Su Bai immediately fired back, the determination in his eyes refusing to yield in the slightest.

An arrow once loosed could not be recalled. His heart hardened, and he immediately swept out a hand as he shouted sternly, "Let all the guests here bear witness. Today, my Su Household came to call off the engagement, but this Xiao Household insists on clinging to it."

"But the Su Household has already called it off!"

With that said!

The guests present were all stunned beyond belief, their widened eyes shifting repeatedly between Su Bai and the Xiao Household members...

Damn!

Su Bai was too ruthless. He simply did not regard the Xiao Household as worthy of notice and was crushing them at will!

Seeing the strange looks from the guests continually falling upon him, Xiao Zhenzhong immediately realized that the situation had completely spiraled out of control. His expression grew darker and darker, and he could no longer suppress the rage in his heart. He shouted, "Is this your intention, or the Su Household's intention?!"

Su Bai sneered and shouted without hesitation, "It is the Su Household's intention, and it is also mine!"

But at that moment!

Xiao Zhenzhong's gaze turned toward Su Ruoxue, one of the people directly involved. His deep, cold eyes carried a hint of questioning. Did she truly want to call off the engagement?!

Su Ruoxue's heart jolted, and she involuntarily took half a step back.

But when she thought of how Su Bai had not hesitated to offend the Xiao Household to stand up for her, how could she possibly shrink back? She immediately nodded heavily. "Uncle, I asked my brother to speak for me. This is also my intention!"

In an instant, Xiao Zhenzhong felt that all his dignity had been utterly lost today. He flew into a rage, his face red and veins bulging as he shouted three times, "Good!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

Immediately afterward, his heart suddenly seemed to stop. His body involuntarily staggered backward, his face deathly pale. One hand pointed at Su Bai, trembling endlessly, but he was so furious that he could not say a single word...

Seeing this, Xiao Fan hurried over to support him. Looking at his father, who had been angered to the verge of fainting, fury instantly surged through his heart. His eyes nearly split with rage as his sharp gaze swept over Su Bai and Su Ruoxue. He waved his hand and shouted, "Good!"

"Your Su Household uses its power to bully others. You want to call off the engagement, right? Then today, I'll grant your wish. Someone! Prepare brush, ink, paper, and inkstone for me!"

At once, the steward inside Xiao Household Villa immediately sent someone to swiftly bring over a set of brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. Seeing this, alarm bells rang wildly in Su Bai's heart...

The protagonist!

Was about to show off!
