Ten seconds passed quickly as Gu Yu looked at Hua Xu.
"You don't need to pay attention to their words. Once my family's Ancestor arrives, let's see if they dare to be so arrogant," Hua Xu said with a sinister expression.
One billion was not a small amount for the Gu Family, but it was something they could come up with if necessary. However, Gu Yu was naturally unwilling to pay that amount outright. Moreover, the Hua Family Ancestor was about to arrive, and Gu Yu still believed in the Ancestor's strength. After all, he was a true master of martial arts, and no matter how powerful Jiang Chen was, he was still young and certainly not a match for the Hua Family Ancestor.
Considering all this, after ten seconds, Gu Yu chose to remain silent.
Silence meant he was unwilling to pay the one billion.
"Manager Gu, this is your choice; don't regret it," Qin Xiaoya sneered.
Jiang Chen's words were definitely not a joke. If Gu Yu were to produce the one billion now, Gu Xiangzhou could immediately regain her appearance. If Gu Yu hesitated now, he would still have to come up with the one billion later, and Gu Xiangzhou's appearance might not be restored at all.
"One billion is simply too much; I can't come up with that," Gu Yu said.
"Manager Gu, while one billion is a lot, your family can definitely manage it. But the opportunity is only once; you've already missed it, and I can only express my regret," Qin Xiaoya replied with a smile.
Seeing Qin Xiaoya's ambiguous smile, Gu Yu felt something was off but still held onto a glimmer of hope, thinking that once the Hua Family Ancestor arrived, he could intimidate Jiang Chen and Qin Xiaoya.
"President Qin, you don't need to scare me," Gu Yu said, feigning calmness.
Qin Xiaoya smiled without responding.
Twenty minutes later, there was commotion coming from downstairs in the teahouse.
"My Ancestor has arrived!" Hua Xu quickly stood up to greet him, and Gu Yu and the others followed suit.
"Ancestor, you finally came! You must stand up for me; that kid severed one of my arms today—I want to break all his limbs!" Hua Xu cried out as soon as he saw the Ancestor.
At that moment, Hua Yuejin had no time to listen to Hua Xu; he pushed past him and scanned the teahouse with his gaze.
"Where is that person?" Hua Yuejin asked.
"On the second floor having tea," Hua Xu replied.
As soon as Hua Xu finished speaking, both Hua Yuejin and Ye Xiaoying hurried upstairs and immediately spotted the young man sitting at the tea table drinking tea.
"Mr. Jiang!"
"Mr. Jiang!"
Hua Yuejin and Ye Xiaoying, both martial arts giants, were filled with excitement and respect upon seeing Jiang Chen, rushing forward to pay their respects as if their descendants were greeting their Ancestors.
Hua Xu and Gu Yu followed closely behind and upon witnessing this scene felt a sudden buzz in their heads—this was bad news indeed.
"Hua Lao, Ye Jian Sheng, please take a seat," Jiang Chen said, exuding an air of authority.
Hua Yuejin and Ye Xiaoying were filled with trepidation but complied and sat down.
"Mr. Jiang, my younger generation from the Hua Family has offended you. I will certainly discipline him according to family rules. If Mr. Jiang does not wish to see him again, I guarantee he will disappear from this world," Hua Yuejin quickly stated after sitting down.
"Ancestor..." Hua Xu was terrified to the core. How could their ancestor want to kill him?
"Enough! You have no right to speak here. To dare offend Mr. Jiang, you are beyond redemption," Hua Yuejin scolded angrily.
Hua Xu's legs went weak, and he fell to his knees.
"Ancestor, please spare me! I truly had no idea. If I had known Mr. Jiang was acquainted with you, even if I had a thousand times more courage, I wouldn't have dared to offend him in the slightest," Hua Xu pleaded, trembling and completely disregarding his dignity.
