Chapter 216: Chapter 0216: Dance Partner [Part 2]
Hearing Pei Jiaping’s voice, many people inside the villa turned their attention in this direction.
Clearly, such incidents had become commonplace to them. Not only did no one step forward to intervene, but quite a few people’s eyes shimmered with excitement. They were all anticipating whether anything would happen next.
They were familiar with Pei Jiaping, the son of the Public Security Bureau chief. He was considered one of the top young masters in East River and was currently studying at East River University.
As for Chu Feng and Cui Jingyan, some were aware of them. In their perspective, the two were merely owners of a small company, Fengjing Entertainment Company.
With a market value of just over a hundred million, what seemed like a large company to outsiders did not count as a true major corporation in these people’s view.
Anyone capable of being here had a net worth of over a billion.
Zhuang Xinyan at the moment was also curiously looking at Chu Feng, wanting to see how he would handle such a situation.
Even if Pei Jiaping was Pei Wending’s son, crossing Zhuang Xinyan’s bottom line was still unacceptable.
Chu Feng’s expression was icy, making Pei Jiaping tremble with some inner unease.
Cui Jingyan, despite her confidence in Chu Feng, could not help but feel worried at this moment.
However, just when the atmosphere was at its most tense, the villa’s main door was pulled open, and Pei Wending walked in with another person.
Seeing Pei Wending approach, many were somewhat disappointed. In their view, although Chu Feng might match Pei Jiaping in a competition of strength, he was clearly not in the same league as Pei Wending. But those who were eager to continue watching the excitement were not in the least diminished.
Zhuang Xinyan’s brows furrowed attractively, uncertain about Chu Feng’s skills and capabilities. She was pondering whether she should step in to help him out later.
Aside from their substantial commercial success, the Zhuang Family also had their own influence in the political arena. Zhuang Xinyan believed that if she spoke up, Pei Wending would grant her this courtesy.
"Dad!" Pei Jiaping, upon seeing his father, flashed a glimmer of excitement and triumph in his eye.
Pei Wending, seeing his son standing with Chu Feng, felt a sudden jolt in his heart.
Pei Wending was savvy enough to realize, given the charged atmosphere, that if he couldn’t discern that his son had clashed with Chu Feng, then he didn’t deserve to be the chief of the Public Security Bureau.
With a grave face, Pei Wending strode over to his son and, without a word, raised his hand and slapped Pei Jiaping across the face.
Pei Wending knew well what kind of person Chu Feng was. Chu Feng was known for not provoking others unless provoked. If it weren’t for his son heedlessly troubling Chu Feng, there was no way Chu Feng would have initiated trouble with his son.
"Slap!"
The crisp sound of the slap caught everyone in the room off guard.
This was not the scene they had come for; they wanted to see Pei Wending unleash his Divine Power and deal severely with Chu Feng. They were eager to see how Chu Feng would desperately beg for mercy.
This was entirely different from what they had anticipated.
Zhuang Xinyan too was stunned by Pei Wending’s sudden slap. But as a goddess from a great family, she merely looked surprised for a moment before regaining her composure. However, the way she looked at Chu Feng now carried a hint of amusement.
"Dad..."
"Apologize!" Before his son could finish, Pei Wending commanded sternly.
"What! A slap wasn’t enough, and now an apology is required!"
This was even more perplexing, as no one knew what Pei Wending was really up to.
"Dad... they..."
"I told you to apologize!" Pei Wending’s face darkened even more, causing Pei Jiaping’s heart to tremble with fear.
Fearing his father naturally, Pei Jiaping hesitated before he also said, "I’m sorry."
Upon hearing his son willing to apologize, Pei Wending also breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he turned to face Chu Feng, saying, "Young Master Chu, I am truly sorry. It is my failure in upbringing."
If Pei Jiaping had refused to apologize, saying such things would have clearly lacked impact. But now, Pei Wending’s words carried much weight.
Chu Feng, looking at Pei Wending, gave a small smile. To everyone’s surprise, he gently patted Pei Wending on the shoulder and said, "Director Pei, I believe we should consider ourselves friends. Such an apology is unnecessary, and even if you hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have done anything to him. He was merely being used by someone else. Do you think I am a narrow-minded person?"
Pei Wending felt a surge of joy in his heart upon hearing Chu Feng’s words. Beating his son in exchange for a friend seemed like a worthwhile deal.
"Young Master Chu, how can you say that? I still failed to raise my son properly, and I must apologize to you on his behalf," Pei Wending said as he began to bow to Chu Feng.
If Pei Jiaping still couldn’t see the extraordinary background of Chu Feng by then, he would be a fool.
Even his own father was apologizing to someone, while he had presumptuously tried to compete over a dance partner. That was practically suicidal.
Chu Feng immediately supported Pei Wending, saying, "Director Pei, if you do this, then you’re not considering me a friend."
Pei Wending felt warmed by the gesture and replied, "Thank you, Young Master Chu."
After a pause, Pei Wending said, "I’ll take this unfilial son back now."
Chu Feng smiled and responded, "There’s no need for that, Director Pei. If you do so, how could Jiaping continue to associate in our circles? The punishment you’ve given him is enough."
Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Pei Wending’s expression turned stern as he said, "Don’t you dare to thank Young Master Chu now."
"Thank you, Young Master Chu!" Pei Jiaping had learned his lesson.
"Director Pei, I have some matters to discuss with friends, so I’ll take my leave first," Chu Feng said, knowing that Pei Wending had things to discuss with his son and that being the center of attention was something Chu Feng was not accustomed to.
Pei Wending replied, "Take care, Young Master Chu."
Once Chu Feng and Cui Jingyan had left, Pei Wending turned to the person beside him and said, "Secretary Liu, I’ve embarrassed myself before you. I have some things to speak with this disobedient son about, my apologies."
The bespectacled Secretary Liu responded, "Please do as you wish, Director Pei."
"Come with me," Pei Wending turned to Pei Jiaping and scolded him sharply.
Pei Jiaping followed behind Pei Wending to the villa’s balcony outside.
Even though many were curious to overhear what Pei Wending would say, few had the courage to do so.
After all, Pei Wending was the director of the Public Security Bureau, and there wasn’t a person present who didn’t rely on his authority.
"Explain everything that happened to me, from beginning to end, without missing a single word," Pei Wending said with a stern face.
