828: Chapter 828: Flee in Panic!
Congratulations on Becoming a Father!
The atmosphere turned ice-cold!
Wu Jie’s retort left Xu Feng momentarily stunned.
It completely baffled Yang Weiye and Wang Kun.
Mr.
Xu is so arrogant?
Wants to silence Wu Jie by killing him?
Damn it!
What exactly is going on here?
Wasn’t it about coming to Wu Jie to talk business and make money together?
And incidentally asking Wu Jie to help get someone out of Tianyuan Medical Center.
How come the content and tone of their conversation sound nothing like the simple scenario they had imagined?
It was completely beyond imagination!
Wu Jie now was certainly not some pushover loser!
His status had long transcended just being the son-in-law of the Tang Family from Tianyuan or Tang Xiao’s husband.
His development of the Graphene Composite Battery had spurred a revolution in the domestic new energy industry.
The Detox Pill had even curbed a virus epidemic, not only recovering lost cultural relics for the country but also bringing in numerous significant benefits.
Elder Tan had more than once claimed that Wu Jie was a national treasure!
Damn it!
Thinking of this treasured individual, no matter how awesome the Xu Family from Liuli City was, would they dare touch a single hair on Wu Jie?
The atmosphere grew threatening.
Wu Jie looked on with a cold, amused smile, while Xu Feng stood there, speechless with astonishment.
Yang Weiye and Wang Kun exchanged looks, feeling they had been played.
This damn Xu Feng probably didn’t come for business talks at all!
At this moment,
Both felt uneasy and considered slipping away.
“I…
I suddenly feel a bit of stomachache, I’m going to the restroom!”
After all, Yang Weiye was experienced in running clubs, and reading situations was a survival skill he couldn’t lack.
When immortals battled, mortals suffered.
Whether it was Wu Jie or Xu Feng, neither was someone Yang Weiye could provoke.
So…
Yang Weiye squeezed out a smile, stood up, and snuck out quietly.
Wang Kun was instantly awkward.
“I…
I’ll go see what other special dishes there are!”
With that, Wang Kun also braced himself and quickly made his exit.
In the private room, soon only Wu Jie and another remained.
Of course, it wasn’t silent.
Neither Wu Jie nor the other watched the television, instead locking eyes for quite a long while.
“Mr.
Wu, you misunderstood!”
Xu Feng said with a smile full of appeasement, breaking the silence.
Wu Jie snorted coldly with a laugh,
“Misunderstood what?
‘Kill Shen Liang or hand him over to you,’ and you give me no other choice.
Are you saying I must obey you, or else isn’t that the same as killing me to silence me?”
“Your father called me at dawn making all sorts of threats and temptations.
You really are a chip off the old block!”
Xu Feng touched his forehead with a bitter smile, “I’m saying, Mr.
Wu, can you not overthink it?
With your current status, would I dare to touch you?”
“What I mean is, if you are willing to work with me, then you can choose to get rid of Shen Liang or hand him over to me!”
“This choice only stands if you are willing to cooperate.
If not, then I obviously can’t force you!”
Smiling wryly, Xu Feng gestured towards Wu Jie’s abdomen.
“Besides, who else if not me, knows about how special your status is now?”
“You’re carrying a gun in your bag, right?
You have the right to shoot me at any time; where do I get the guts to boss you around?”
“It’s my fault for not making myself clear.
I’ll punish myself with three cups in place of alcohol!”
With that, Xu Feng stood up, took the teapot and cups.
In front of Wu Jie, he quickly and agilely drank three cups of tea.
After putting down the cup, Xu Feng said with a grin,
“Please don’t be angry.
I really did come here to talk business.
The rescue was just a side task.”
“I’m entrusted by someone, and I must be loyal to the job.
Old Mr.
Kong from Liuli City has given the word, how could my father and I not be at their service?”
“In my opinion, whether Shen Liang is handed over or not, it doesn’t really matter anymore!”
“The recent joint live-fire drill was missed by Old Mr.
Kong, and that already indicates a serious problem!”
“But my father thinks that as a big tree with deep roots and vast influence, there is still the possibility of a comeback, so I was left with no choice…”
Wu Jie simply smiled and stood up to leave.
Xu Feng immediately became anxious.
“Hey Mr.
Wu, let’s not talk about the Kong Family’s issue, just the business cooperation, I’m truly sincere.
I am staying at your family’s hotel and dine at your restaurants in Tianyuan, I…”
“If you want to cooperate, go to the corporate investment department.
I never deal with these messy things!”
With that, Wu Jie opened the door and left.
The door closed with a bang,
And Xu Feng’s mood plummeted to rock bottom.
Sitting down dejectedly, he ground his teeth in frustration.
“Damn it!
What a piece of shit!!”
“A poor loser who climbed up by clinging to a woman, what’s there to be so arrogant about?
To act so high and mighty?”
“If not for the extreme importance of the matter, would I lower myself to say these things to you?
Not a single bit of face shown, dammit!”
While cursing under his breath, Xu Feng took out his phone to call his father.
The call didn’t connect; it was busy.
He opened the messaging app, ready to report the situation of the meeting.
Before he could type out a few words, Xu Kuishan called back.
“Dad, over here…”
“Shut your mouth!” Xu Kuishan interrupted Xu Feng harshly and went straight to the point, “I’ve just received confirmed news; Old Mr.
Kong has been taken in for a ‘talk’!”
Snap.
Xu Feng was taken aback, and his phone fell to the floor.
“Holy shit!
You little rascal, what are you doing?” Xu Kuishan barked.
Xu Feng hurriedly picked up the phone, asking in shock, “No way?
How come so fast?
Could it be that Shen Liang has already reached Liuli City?”
Xu Kuishan scoffed,
“How would I know?
But you were right before; the old man was not even qualified to participate in the drill.
That’s enough to prove that sooner or later, he’s done for!”
“Damn it!
Thinking back, I shouldn’t have called Zheng Shengfeng and Wu Jie last night, trying to show off only to end up losing face.
Now with Old Mr.
Kong taken in, we’re definitely going to be dragged into this…”
Xu Feng muttered to himself, his face pale as death.
Ruined!
“When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall collapses, everyone pushes it over!”
With Old Mr.
Kong gone, the Kong Family in Liuli City was surely doomed, and the Xu Family…
Xu Feng frantically asked, “What should we do, Dad?
My negotiation with Wu Jie broke down too, and it seems like regular business is off the table—he simply doesn’t want to cooperate with us!”
Xu Kuishan pondered for a moment before saying, “Now is not the time to talk about business.
You hurry back to Liuli City; we must disassociate ourselves from the Kong Family as quickly as possible to minimize our losses!”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Feng was in no mood to eat and immediately stormed out, slamming the door behind him.
He descended the stairs, had his bodyguard throw ten thousand yuan in cash to the cashier, and hurriedly left, fleeing in a panic.
And all this…
Wang Kun and Yang Weiye, hiding in the shadows, saw it all very clearly.
“Damn it, I knew we were being set up!
Shit!”
Yang Weiye cursed and pounded the wall in vexation, feeling sick enough to vomit.
Wang Kun asked curiously, “Who on earth is Shen Liang?
He managed to get Mr.
Xu to personally get him out of trouble and even made Mr.
Wu blow his top.”
“And whom am I supposed to ask?” Yang Weiye muttered through gritted teeth.
“Also, stop calling him Mr.
Xu, didn’t you see how he fled in such a sorry state?
He’s definitely got himself into some serious trouble!”
With a sigh of frustration, Wang Kun clenched his fists, equally enraged.
At that moment…
Yang Weiye saw Wu Jie serving dishes in the hall again and quickly nudged Wang Kun with his elbow.
“Let’s go, stop standing around; we need to explain this fast!”
As he spoke, Yang Weiye hurriedly stepped forward.
Smiling broadly, nodding, and bowing.
Instead of explaining immediately, he familiarly helped as a food runner, diligently pouring tea and water and handing out tissues to the customers.
It wasn’t until Wu Jie was about to return to the kitchen that Yang Weiye quickly followed him.
“Mr.
Wu, this is all a misunderstanding.
Wang and I were duped by Xu Feng; we had no idea he wanted your help to rescue such a special person.
We genuinely wanted to do some business…”
Yang Weiye seized the opportunity, talking rapidly.
He explained everything at a breakneck speed.
Wang Kun also hurriedly made his way over, his face a bitter smile as he explained:
“He tricked us, saying that if we could cooperate with you, then their New Yu Autos, a subsidiary of Xu Corporation in Liuli City, could establish a branch in Tianyuan.
They would use your batteries and power management systems to produce buses, trucks, and the like…”
Wu Jie stopped in his tracks, glancing at the anxious and flustered pair of Wang Kun.
“You don’t need to be so nervous, why explain anything?
It’s not necessary at all!”
“The person he wants to save and the mess the Xu Family is stirring up isn’t something you two can meddle with!”
“Besides, I never involve myself in business matters—it’s the investment department you want if you’re seeking cooperation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Kun chimed in with a sheepish smile:
“If we don’t cooperate with New Yu Autos, we certainly aren’t qualified to deal with new energy vehicles, but we’re still interested in working on battery exchange stations!”
“Exactly, exactly.
With more and more electric cars, battery exchange stations are surely a profitable venture!”
Yang Weiye eagerly agreed with a cheerful smile.
Wu Jie gave a faint smile.
“Do as you please, I’m off to work!”
“Right, right, Mr.
Wu, you’re busy!
Take care!”
Yang Weiye made a respectful gesture with a full-faced grin.
Wang Kun also quickly stepped back, nodding along with a smile.
After Wu Jie went into the kitchen, the two exchanged glances and both heaved a sigh of relief.
“Eat one’s bitter, grow one’s wisdom!
Never again will the old man partner with families like the Xu Family.
It’s too damn deceitful!”
Yang Weiye cursed as he made his way to the counter.
“Check out for Private Room One!”
“Someone has already settled the bill just now.
This is extra!”
The cashier handed over a thick stack of remaining bills.
“What do you mean, extra?
Mr.
Wu personally cooked the dishes, no matter how much it is, it’s only right!”
Saying this, Yang Weiye pulled out two stacks of bills from his bag, threw them on the counter without another word, and left with Wang Kun.
Wang Kun’s brows were deeply furrowed, deep in thought.
Once they were outside the store, he suddenly said,
“We should strike while the iron is hot!
Since we’re not partnering with the Xu Family anymore, let’s just use the land we prepared to build a battery exchange station!”
Yang Weiye readily agreed, “Great!
Then there’s no time like the present, let’s head to their group headquarters now!”
With that, the two of them rushed off towards the underground garage to get their car.
However…
Yang Weiye suddenly stopped in his tracks; he’d spotted someone familiar.
“What’s up?”
Yang Weiye sneered, “At ten o’clock, that woman there is that beautiful internet celebrity, Joy, I told you about.
Seems like she’s Mr.
Zhang Hao’s woman.
Damn it, I slapped her and compensated her with three hundred thousand yuan!”
Wang Kun narrowed his eyes and took a look.
The internet celebrity beauty was just so-so.
Tall and slender with delicate curves, she moved with grace, and her facial features were particularly refined.
Especially her eyes, nose, and chin, Wang Kun, who had seen countless women, could tell at a glance they were the results of plastic surgery.
“Weird!
Mr.
Wu’s brother, is he really that unimpressive?
To settle for this sort of thing?”
“If it’s a free ride, why not take it?”
Yang Weiye chuckled and walked away with Wang Kun.
Joy hadn’t noticed Yang Weiye; ever since she got out of the taxi, she seemed a bit out of sorts.
She wanted to go into the store to find Zhang Hao but hesitated with slow steps.
Clutching her handbag tightly, she bit her lip.
After a long hesitation, she finally went in.
After all, she used to come here often and was quite familiar with the owner.
So as soon as Joy reached the entrance, the receptionist quickly alerted the kitchen via walkie-talkie.
“Manager Zhang, Beauty Joy has arrived!”
Zhang Hao, busy in the kitchen, was more than frustrated upon hearing this.
It was messing around carelessly with Joy that almost plunged him into an abyss from which he could never recover, due to contracting AIDS.
“I’m not in the mood to listen to her cry and apologize for mercy, I just want to make money!”
Zhang Hao’s face was tense as he vigorously tossed his wok, the firelight reflecting off his face, making him look more resolute than ever.
Wu Jie picked up the walkie-talkie, about to have someone turn Joy away, when the receptionist’s voice came through again.
“Manager Zhang, congratulations, you’re going to be a dad!
Beauty Joy is pregnant, and there’s even a medical report!”
Bang!
The pot that Zhang Hao was holding slammed down onto the stove, his face turned ashen.
“Fuck!”
Wu Jie, astonished, turned to look at Zhang Hao:
“This kid, is it yours?”
