Chapter 192: Chapter 192: The Most Ruthless Is the Emperor’s Abode, First Update
After hanging up the phone, Xu Lingzhi’s demeanor instantly transformed into extreme geniality as he said to Chen Wei, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Chen, he will be right here."
He feared that Chen Wei might lose patience and leave first.
Without a direct reply, Chen Wei sat back down on the sofa, lifted his tea cup, and continued drinking the half cup that remained.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Let alone three minutes.
Chen Wei waited a full five minutes, yet the person Xu Lingzhi wanted him to see still hadn’t arrived.
Noticing Chen Wei’s subtle glance at the wall clock, Xu Lingzhi quickly took out his phone, found the most recent call in his call history, and dialed it.
Soon after, a ringtone sounded from outside the door.
Then, the room door was opened from the outside, and the newcomer was none other than Xu Lingzhi’s son, Xu Guancong—the same guy who had hassled Han Lingxue at the gate of South University.
It was because of him that Han Lingxue had summoned Chen Wei to pretend to be her boyfriend.
"Dad, I’m here. What’s the rush that you had to call a second time?"
Just as Xu Lingzhi was about to speak, Xu Guancong noticed Chen Wei’s presence and immediately looked furious, "It’s you, this piece of trash!"
"Heh!" Xu Guancong laughed, "Although I haven’t dug up your background, who do I thank for having a good father huh? Got caught, didn’t you? Now kneel down and beg me for mercy, and maybe, just maybe, I’ll be magnanimous enough to leave your body intact!"
Seeing that Chen Wei was ignoring him and instead looking towards Xu Lingzhi, he said, "President Xu had me wait so long just for this?"
"..." Xu Lingzhi’s face turned ugly.
Xu Guancong, seeing that Chen Wei not only questioned his own father but also had the nerve to continue drinking tea, flew into a rage and intended to walk over and teach him a lesson, "You little punk, who gave you the right to be so arrogant! You don’t take us..."
Slap!
A slap stupefied Xu Guancong in place.
"You wretched thing! Who allowed you to talk to Mr. Chen like that? What right do you have to speak to Mr. Chen in such a manner?" Xu Lingzhi yelled.
At times, Xu Lingzhi doubted whether Xu Guancong was truly his son; if he really was, why would he push his own father and the entire Xu family towards a cliff?
"Dad, I didn’t do anything wrong. Why are you taking his side? It was he who offended me before! Didn’t you summon him here to take revenge for me?" Xu Guancong, holding his face, still couldn’t grasp the situation.
Slap!
"Revenge, my ass! Revenge, my ass!" Unable to bear it any longer, Xu Lingzhi slapped Xu Guancong to the ground before unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks, accompanied by a stream of expletives.
Where was the manner of a great family’s master?
Xu Lingzhi no longer cared about those things; all he wanted was to vent the resentment in his heart on Chen Wei’s behalf.
"Dad, stop, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong." With things having reached this point, Xu Guancong would truly be a fool if he still didn’t understand.
It turned out that on that day, Chen Wei wasn’t bluffing—the three Black Cards were all real!
If they were fake, his father would never have revealed such a side of himself, let alone beat him up.
Xu Guancong had rarely been hit by Xu Lingzhi since he was a child; whenever he did get hit, it was over something very serious.
For example, because of Xu Guancong, the Xu family company lost a billion!
For such a serious matter, Xu Guancong had only received a slap from Xu Lingzhi.
But now...
When Xu Lingzhi had no more energy to hit, he stopped, leaving Xu Guancong’s entire body bruised with shades of blue and purple.
He turned around, looked at Chen Wei, and took a deep breath before asking, "Mr. Chen, if you still feel unsatisfied, I will cripple this boy’s limbs and confine him at home forever, never to bother Mr. Chen again. What do you think?"
It’s often said that in ancient times, the imperial family was the most heartless.
Now, the saying could apply to countless families.
To save the entire Xu family, Xu Lingzhi had no choice.
"You decide for yourself," Chen Wei stood up.
"So, what about the enhanced K90 potion?" Xu Lingzhi hurried his steps and asked.
"You can go negotiate with the Han Family yourself."
"Understood." Xu Lingzhi was very grateful for this; at least Chen Wei was willing to give him such an opportunity. Now, he just needed to consider how to win over the Han Family.
Xu Lingzhi was ready for a significant financial hit.
As for Chen Wei, after exiting the elevator, he didn’t linger for even half a moment and directly left the Xu Family’s company premises.
No sooner had he stepped through the gate, than a voice called out to him from behind.
If Chen Wei remembered correctly, this person seemed to be Xu Lingzhi’s secretary.
"What is it now? Is there something else?" Chen Wei asked.
"Mr. Chen, this is a small token of apology from my boss. Please accept it," the secretary said, presenting a bank card with both hands.
Since it was an apology, it was only right to accept it. There was no reason for Chen Wei to refuse, so he chose to accept.
"There’s one hundred million in there, the PIN is three sixes, three sevens."
"Hmm, got it."
Not only that, but afterward, the secretary also thoughtfully arranged a car for Chen Wei and sent him to the doorstep of Su Yumei’s Qingshi Group.
Now, there were hardly a few people at Qingshi Group who did not recognize Chen Wei. Everyone was utterly respectful, with no one daring to block his path.
Stepping into the elevator, on the fourth floor, a familiar person got in.
"It’s you!" the other person also immediately recognized Chen Wei, "We always seem to run into each other in the elevator."
With that head of golden short hair, who could it be other than Yan Suli?
"So, do I have reason to suspect that you’re intentionally waiting for me here?" Chen Wei countered.
"Eh! I swear by the sun and the moon, by heaven and earth, I would never harbor such intentions," Yan Suli stepped into the elevator, raised her hands, and earnestly swore.
"Which floor are you going to?" Chen Wei, standing close, asked Yan Suli.
"Twelfth floor," Yan Suli replied.
He pressed the button for the twelfth floor, then the button to close the elevator doors, leaving only Chen Wei and Yan Suli in their private space.
"By the way, has the Heaven and Earth Society given you any trouble since we last parted?" Yan Suli asked with concern.
"They wouldn’t dare," Chen Wei answered.
"Those people often say one thing and do another; I advise you to be careful."
"Sss..." Chen Wei hesitated for a while but eventually decided to speak up. He turned around and suddenly made his move, pinning Yan Suli against the wall, "You were waiting for me here on purpose, weren’t you?"
Yan Suli found herself trapped between the wall on her right and Chen Wei’s sturdy, forceful arm on her left, with nowhere to hide.
"I—I wasn’t," Yan Suli’s tone was flustered, losing all her previous confidence and calm.
"No, you were," Chen Wei was certain.
"Do you have evidence?" Yan Suli suddenly lifted her head, locking eyes with Chen Wei.
Chen Wei could see she was trying hard to maintain her composure.
"What’s wrong with your nose?" Seeing Chen Wei raise his hand to point at his own nose, Yan Suli asked, not understanding.
Then, Chen Wei suddenly leaned in, causing Yan Suli’s heart to skip a beat, pounding rapidly with surprise and anticipation.
She thought he might do something to her, but instead, she heard him say, "I smell perfume on you."
"Isn’t it normal to wear perfume in the workplace?"
"Of course, wearing perfume is normal, but this perfume contains musk."
"What about musk?" Yan Suli still feigned ignorance.
"Musk has aphrodisiac and attractant properties. Don’t tell me you didn’t know that."
