Chapter 404: Chapter 404

Anna's usual cheerful, almost crazy demeanor, Xu Hao felt, must have been a façade to avoid thinking about those sad things.

Since Anthony had entrusted Anna to him, he should protect her well and not let her suffer the slightest grievance.

Therefore, Xu Hao suddenly felt the urge to kill this girl!

Jiang Xuezhun noticed Xu Hao's murderous intent and immediately grabbed his hand, as this was a public place, and if Xu Hao started a massacre, the impact would be very bad.

Xu Hao was not just reliant on brute force; he also had a large conglomerate to manage, with products that appealed to the general public.

But if Xu Hao left an impression of brutality in the minds of the public, it would definitely be a severe blow to the reputation of his group.

Jiang Xuezhun was not a thoughtless person, so she tried to stop him, to prevent Xu Hao from taking any extreme actions.

Xu Hao felt the silent dissuasion from Jiang Xuezhun and felt warmth in his heart, gently pressing her hand and saying, "Don't worry, I can control my emotions."

Jiang Xuezhun nodded her head.

Xu Hao hugged Anna close and gently patted her back, comforting her, "Anna, don't cry. I'll avenge you, I absolutely won't let them off!"

Xu Hao turned to the girl and said coldly, "Who are you with? How dare you speak such filth!"

The girl seemed not the least bit afraid of Xu Hao and snorted coldly, "I am from Cao Family! Do you know the Cao Family? We are allies with Huadu's number one great family, the Wu Family! Our big brother said, with the Wu family backing us up, we're not afraid of anyone in the future!"

Everyone sighed, as recently it had become well-known that the Cao family was a vassal to the Wu family.

The Cao family had always been a vassal to the Wu family, but this was something hardly anyone knew until recently, when it suddenly spread.

Although the image of the Cao family had instantly diminished in people's eyes, as a member of the Seven Small Families had become a vassal to another family, everyone felt this family was likely in decline.

But the Cao family had also become almost untouchable!

After all, they had the Wu family behind them!

The number one great family in Huadu!

With such a backer, people believed that even when facing the other three great families, the Cao family would not appear weak.

This was the advantage and disadvantage of becoming a vassal to another powerful family.

A tarnished reputation, but a stronger foundation!

People couldn't help but look at Xu Hao, the young man with two beauties by his side, but wearing rather ordinary clothes, wondering what his family status was.

But even if he were a scion of any of the other small families, how could he contend with the Cao family?

As for the scions of the Four Great Families, that was even more unlikely.

Would the scions of the Four Great Families queue up here?

Many people watched with glee, and for a moment, not a single person came forward to intercede.

Xu Hao suddenly laughed, realizing it was the Cao family again.

It seemed he didn't want to destroy the Cao family, but they just kept asking for it by provoking him!

He said indifferently, "Is the Head of the Cao Family, Cao Wang, present?"

The girl immediately became angry, "How dare you address my uncle by name! You're courting death!" This chapter's true source is My Virtual Library Empire (*).

Xu Hao was stunned for a moment; just the other day, Li Chenggong had directly called the top boss of Huadu, Chu Yunlong, by name, and Wang Chun Jiao had said the same thing at the time—Is one's name not meant to be called?

What's the point of having a name, then?

He said exasperatedly, "What's the problem with simply saying Cao Wang? Is the head of your Cao Family the Emperor? Is his name taboo and not to be spoken out loud for fear of committing some great offense?"

The onlookers all secretly sighed; this young man was really straightforward!

That was the head of the Cao Family; wouldn't everyone address him as Master Cao?

To directly call someone by their name was to show disrespect.

The girl snorted coldly, "It seems you really have a death wish. Just you wait, my big brother will be here soon. He won't even need my uncle to step in; once my big brother arrives, you'll be brought to your knees!"

Xu Hao smiled faintly, "Your big brother is the elder son of the Cao Family, Cao An, right?"

"Hmph! It seems you're not completely ignorant! Since you know, why don't you hurry up and have that girl who's neither mothered nor nurtured crawl over here to apologize to me? Otherwise, when my big brother arrives, none of you will escape!" The girl snorted haughtily.

The crowd frowned; the girl's words were too harsh.

Nevertheless, many were aware of the Cao family member's attitude; they had always been , respectful and polite only to the Wu family, but arrogant towards everyone else, as if they were the second great family in Huadu.

The boy didn't think there was anything wrong with what the girl had said and added, "Exactly, you girl, come over here and apologize quickly. I've taken a liking to you, and you haven't graduated from high school yet, right? If you keep me company tonight and satisfy me, I might let you enter Huadu University without any effort."
