The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Chapter 1796 1799: A Phoenix Without Feathers Is No Better Than a Chicken

"Though there are occasional instances, while we're undoubtedly at a complete disadvantage in public opinion right now, that may not be the case in the future. However, for the moment, I need to visit Quangan Port on Dongying Nanzhou Island. You all can stay in Huadu. Mei Xuezi will accompany me as she is a Dongying native, so she'll be more familiar with certain aspects than I am."

With Xu Hao's instruction, he set off with Mei Xuezi to Dongying.

Dongying, stretching from south to north, is composed of Nanzhou Island, Zhongzhou Island, Four Seas Island, and Northern Island, named as such due to its many islands.

Quangan Port, the largest port on Dongying Nanzhou Island, is the gateway through which foreign goods must pass to reach Dongtian County in Zhonghai Prefecture, located 100 kilometers away.

On usual days, Quangan Port teems with people, with cargo ships from every country docking there.

However, today, an incident caused quite a stir and shocked many.

A 1,000-ton shipment from the Huaya Xu Liu Group was detained by the local Akashi family at Quangan Port.

The ten employees responsible for transporting the goods, all from the Xu Liu Group, were trapped in a hotel by the Akashi family, unable to leave.

The clan leader of the Akashi family, Akashi Chong, even publicly challenged Xu Hao on the Dongying Forum, saying, "Xu Hao, you are a Huaya person, not one of us Dongying people. This is our Dongying territory. You're just a Huaya person; go back to where you came from! This is Dongying, not a place where you Huaya people can run wild!"

Below this statement, countless Dongying people praised him, claiming he made valid points and that their actions greatly boosted Dongying's morale.

"Yes! Kick out the Xu Liu Group and the others from Dongying! They don't deserve to be on our Dongying soil!"

"How can Huaya people possibly take over our Dongying cosmetics market? They're just dreaming!"

Numerous Dongying people initiated a boycott against Xu Hao and the Xu Liu Group, with some even coming to Quangan Port to join the Akashi family in monitoring the Xu Liu Group's ten employees.

As Xu Hao arrived with Mei Xuezi at Quangan Port, they were immediately surrounded by a crowd of Dongying people.

They recognized Mei Xuezi.

"Aren't you the CEO of the company that was acquired, Mei Xuezi? How can a traitor like you have the face to return? Get out of Dongying!"

"So you're the spineless one who let the Xu Liu Group acquire our Dongying company? You let the wolf in? If you don't leave now, we'll..."

The crowd surrounded Mei Xuezi, hurling insults at her, with many sizing her up and down, emitting sinister laughter, their minds filled with thoughts that would surely be censored.

Although their words were harsh and disdainful, deep down, they were amazed that such a beautiful woman existed.

Many had seen the photos of Mei Xuezi released by the Kameda family, but how could a photo compare to the real Mei Xuezi?

In person, she was far more beautiful than any photo!

As for Xu Hao, he had already been completely ignored by them.

In the presence of a super beauty like Mei Xuezi, Xu Hao was naturally regarded as plain by the men.

They assumed Xu Hao was merely Mei Xuezi's follower, with no one associating him with being Xu Hao himself.

Despite her young age, as the CEO and President of a company, Mei Xuezi had encountered all sorts of people over the years.

Among the men who approached her, how many were not enamored by her beauty?

Aside from Xu Hao, she had met no man who wasn't tempted by her allure.

As for these Dongying people, claiming justice but akin to hooligans, they were nothing new to her.

In the past, due to her status, no one dared openly speak to her this way, but now, branded as a "traitor," they dared to be so blatant.

Some even considered laying hands on her!

Mei Xuezi felt a pang of sadness in her heart. This is what comes from losing power; even the trash dared to touch her now.

A plucked Phoenix is truly inferior to a chicken!

At that moment, Xu Hao chuckled lightly, "Are these the people from the so-called most civilized nation in the world? Why now do you want to lay hands on a weak woman? Where's your civility?"

A man snorted coldly, "Just a little follower. From your accent, I'd say you're not one of our Dongying people. It seems you're the little bodyguard Mei Xuezi hired in Huaya, aren't you?

Let me advise you, this is Dongying, not Huaya. If you want to stay alive, you'd better stay put. Otherwise, if we accidentally kill you, you can't blame us."

"Yes! Boy, if you behave, grandpa won't hurt you. But if you don't listen, I'll beat you up right now!" said another man, who appeared to work out regularly, flexing his muscular, bulging arm in a show of intimidation.
