Chapter 549: Chapter 0551: What Do You Want?

Chu Feng looked at the furious Shangguan Wan and said, "I was only saying ’what if.’ Don’t you understand what a hypothetical is? Did you even graduate elementary school?"

"Smack!"

Before Shangguan Wan could open her mouth, her father slapped her across the face once again.

This time he didn’t hold back, and after the slap, Shangguan Wan was completely unable to speak.

"Uncle, look at your temper, hitting people at the drop of a hat. I really didn’t ask you to hit her. I just want to know why I’m here. And why I should leave. Is that too much to ask?" Chu Feng inquired.

"Smack!"

This time his slap landed on Bai Jiahang’s face, leaving it just as swollen.

Chu Feng said, "Uncle, what are you doing? This makes it hard for me. If I leave, I worry you’ll keep hitting them. If I stay, I still worry you’ll hit them. How do you expect me to choose? I have a fear of making choices, you know. Aren’t you making it worse for me?"

This time Shangguan Wan’s father didn’t waste words and just kept slapping Shangguan Wan and Bai Jiahang across their faces.

Going back and forth, Shangguan Wan’s father slapped each person dozens of times until their faces were completely swollen, before Chu Feng, feeling distressed, stood up and said, "Uncle, is it fine if I go now? You’re so hot-tempered, are you planning to beat them to death if I don’t leave?"

Shangguan Wan’s father said, "See Mr. Chu out."

"Uncle, you’re kicking me out? That’s not very nice. I’m a guest, aren’t I? And we’re practically friends now. Look at the time; why don’t you treat me to breakfast or something? At most, I’ll turn away while you continue to slap them for two more hours," Chu Feng casually suggested.

"Mr. Chu, I can arrange the best breakfast for you at the finest hotel owned by my Shangguan family. Of course, it might also be your last breakfast," Shangguan Wan’s father said coldly.

The threatening undertone in his words was very clear.

Upon hearing Shangguan Wan’s father’s words, Chu Feng promptly sat back down on the sofa and said, "Uncle, aren’t we skipping the pleasantries? Do you really have to threaten me like this? Talking about my last breakfast, don’t you know that skipping breakfast is bad for your health? Are you going to have someone block me from breakfast if I don’t leave?"

Shangguan Wan’s father truly felt he was on the brink of exploding. He hadn’t anticipated that Chu Feng would be so difficult to deal with, so tenacious. If he had known this would be the outcome, he certainly would not have provoked Chu Feng.

"What else do you want?" Shangguan Wan’s father asked.

Chu Feng replied, "I just want a reason. You say I’ve been locked up here all night. Do you know how many things you’ve held me up from? Do you know I make or lose millions every single minute?"

Shangguan Wan’s father took out a chequebook, quickly wrote down a string of numbers, and handed it to Chu Feng, saying, "Will this cover your losses?"

Chu Feng took the cheque, looked at the numbers, and with some difficulty said, "Seeing that you’re so sincere, I guess I’ll reluctantly accept. You guys continue your little slapping game. I really need to go have breakfast now."

Chu Feng stretched lazily, took a few steps, then turned back and said, "Be careful when you take down that mural on the wall later. My kick might have been a bit too forceful, and I might have accidentally caused internal organs and bones to break and dislocate. If you use too much force, I’m afraid it really will break. And these four wooden posts, don’t bother with them; by evening, they’ll naturally be fine."

After settling all this, Chu Feng finally turned and left the villa.

Stepping out of the villa, Chu Feng was also taken aback by the preparations outside.

"What’s going on?" Chu Feng looked at the armored vehicles and fully armed soldiers outside the villa and felt somewhat dumbfounded.

This was Yanjing, at the feet of the Emperor; such military action was no small matter. If it weren’t sanctioned by the President, it wouldn’t be possible at all.

"Uncle!" Just as Chu Feng was dumbstruck, a military officer with the rank of general approached from afar.

"And you are?" Chu Feng didn’t recognize the general, so he had to ask.

Xiao Tian, no, to Chu Feng he was Old Tian now.

"Uncle, I’m another adopted son of dad’s. He told me about your situation. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been mistreated, Uncle. It’s my fault for arriving late," Xiao Tian said.

Chu Feng quickly supported Xiao Tian, saying, "This, this... you’re being too polite. I haven’t suffered much. They treated me quite well, even prepared a fast meal for me. Although it didn’t taste great, at least it was edible. Wait for me a moment, I still have some things to take care of when I go back."

Xiao Tian asked in confusion, "Uncle, what else do you need to do? I can help you with it."

Chu Feng replied, "Seeing all this fuss outside, I just asked for some money and felt it was a bit short. I’ll go back and ask for proper compensation. I can’t use public funds for my own purposes, can I?"

After saying that, Chu Feng headed back into the house, and when he came out, he looked very satisfied.

Of course, if Chu Feng was satisfied, the Shangguan family certainly wouldn’t be.

Chu Feng handed the second cheque he got from Shangguan Wan’s father to Xiao Tian, saying, "Deposit this with the military. It’s for your military exercises budget. Consider it part of the national defense fees."

Xiao Tian took the cheque and was also startled by the string of zeros he saw.

"Uncle, this..."

Chu Feng said, "They’re protected by you guys every day, it’s only right they spend a bit more. Think of it as their protection money. And you just need to deposit it with the military, no need to feel burdened."

Xiao Tian didn’t argue further, replying, "Thank you, Uncle."

Chu Feng said, "You coming to pick me up, I should be thanking you. Since you have a car, can you take me to Dragon Soul? I have some business there."

Xiao Tian replied, "Sure! Uncle, I’ll arrange for a car to take you there right away."

Now that Chu Feng was safe, they could stand down.

After arranging a car to take Chu Feng to Dragon Soul, the rest of the unit began to withdraw.

As soon as Shangguan Wan’s father was certain that everyone outside had left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, having one’s villa surrounded by an entire military unit was enough to make anyone nervous, enough to scare anyone.

"I apologize for the hardships you two have endured this time," he said to the pair whose faces were swollen from his slapping.

"Uncle, it’s okay. This is our responsibility. You were looking out for my best interest. Whether it succeeds or fails, it’s up to me to bear it," Bai Jiahang said, his voice slightly distorted and off-pitch due to the swelling, but still not too strenuous to understand.
