Chapter 705 - 705 703 Favoritism

705: Chapter 703: Favoritism 705: Chapter 703: Favoritism “This matter, indeed, was instigated by your Gu Family.

Logically speaking, what Chen Yang did was in fact warranted.”

“However, now that your family has suffered losses, it’s only right to give you an explanation.”

After Elder Wang spoke these words leisurely, his gaze then turned to Chen Yang: “Young Chen Yang, why don’t you just apologize to them.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang almost couldn’t help it and laughed out loud.

Elder Wang seemed to be rebuking him on the surface, but in reality, this was a blatant favoritism.

Gu Honghu brought over a hundred people, aggressively seeking Chen Yang’s life, and just an apology from him would settle this?

Chen Yang really wanted to laugh, but he held it in.

Gu Honghu, on the other hand, was grinding his teeth in anger; had he known Elder Wang would be so partial, he wouldn’t want to hear any so-called compromise.

“Family Head Wang, isn’t this too biased?

My own son was crippled by him, and a simple apology is supposed to make things right?” Gu Honghu’s eyes narrowed with lethal intent!

A smile remained on Elder Wang’s face.

“What, still not satisfied?”

“What do you think?” retorted Gu Honghu, with grinding teeth.

“Well, if you’re not satisfied, then let me add one more condition.

Besides Chen Yang’s apology, my Wang Family will provide compensation of hundreds of thousands to cover your son’s medical expenses.

Let’s just put this matter behind us, shall we?

Give the Wang Family some face,” Elder Wang proposed with an appearance of significant concession.

Actually, a few hundred thousand was nothing but a trifle for a huge family like theirs.

Originally, Gu Honghu did not really wish to escalate conflicts, knowing that the Wang Family’s background was no less esteemed than the Gu Family’s.

That’s why he had been patiently enduring the rage in his heart, hoping Elder Wang would offer a reasonable solution.

But now, he couldn’t hold back any longer.

The Wang Family had never intended to hand Chen Yang over to him.

All this talk was nothing but an insult!

Gu Honghu was burning with anger, his fists clenched tight!

“Family Head Wang, are you mocking my limits?” Gu Honghu’s bloodshot eyes were fixed fiercely on Elder Wang.

Elder Wang still wore a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile.

“Why do you say that?

We are indeed sincere.

If we say we will compensate, we will definitely do so.

Besides, we will also have young friend Chen Yang apologize to you, and with that, the matter will be considered settled.”

Having said that, Elder Wang then turned his head to address Wang Qingyue, instructing her to retrieve one million in cash from his office.

Wang Qingyue, seeing her grandfather so domineering and favoring Chen Yang to such an extent, felt a warm and cozy feeling in her heart.

Without another word, she went upstairs.

In a few minutes, she came back down, holding a huge stack of cash.

“Grandfather, this is one million.”

“Good.”

Elder Wang nodded in satisfaction, then looked toward Gu Honghu: “How about it, can we let bygones be bygones?”

“Heh.”

Gu Honghu let out a cold laugh in acute fury.

“Family Head Wang, you’ve gone too far.

Today, no matter what, I want Chen Yang dead.

I have no use for his apology or your money.”

Gu Honghu’s tone was resolute, his eyes ablaze with raging flames of anger.

Elder Wang’s face momentarily lost its mirth upon seeing this.

“Then let me tell you, today you cannot touch a single hair on young friend Chen Yang.

He is under the Wang Family’s protection.

Today, even if Old Ghost Gu himself were to come, my words remain the same,” Elder Wang replied with equal firmness to Gu Honghu.

“Does your Wang Family really want to break ties with my Gu Family?” Gu Honghu suddenly roared.

“Hmph, what if we break ties?

The Gu Family has been increasingly overbearing in recent years.

Do you really think the Wang Family is without temper?” Wang Guodong suddenly stood up and responded just as loudly.

Gu Honghu glared at Wang Guodong with round, angry eyes, then took another look at Elder Wang.

Old Master Wang, leaning on his cane, remained silent, yet his aura was evidently on the rise.

This was something Gu Honghu clearly felt, and it shocked him greatly.

“Very well, very well, a fine show by the Wang Family indeed.

I will remember this debt, just wait, I will pay it back to you.” Gu Honghu’s rage peaked, and his whole body seemed to bristle with fury.

But sensing the aura climbing around Old Master Wang, he knew that today wasn’t the day for a forceful confrontation.

Although he was desperate for revenge, he could not afford to suffer a loss right now.

After issuing a stern warning to Wang Guodong, Gu Honghu turned his fierce gaze towards Chen Yang.

“You little brat, the Wang Family might protect you for now, but they can’t protect you forever, can they?

If you’ve got the guts, just try staying here your whole life!”

After finishing his words, Gu Honghu decisively led his people away.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Watching Gu Honghu and his men leave, an expressionless countenance returned to Old Master Wang’s face.

Wang Guodong and the others let out a light sigh of relief, thinking how fortunate it was that Old Master had fully recovered, otherwise a major conflict would have definitely erupted today.

It was the same for Wang Hong and Wang Qingyue.

They too were relieved that the Old Master’s health had returned.

Otherwise, with Gu Honghu arriving with such an imposing manner, how could he have left just like that?

“Brother Chen Yang, don’t worry, the Gu Family is just all talk.

They don’t have the resources to keep an eye on you.

Still, it’s best you don’t leave for the time being,” Wang Hong said to Chen Yang with a sigh of relief.

Wang Qingyue also nodded, “Yes, Chen Yang, as long as you stay here you’ll be safe.

With Grandfather here, the Gu Family wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.”

Both of them were concerned for Chen Yang, which is why they spoke to him in this manner.

Chen Yang gratefully acknowledged their kindness and also turned to thank Old Master Wang.

“Thank you, Old Master.”

Upon hearing this, Old Master Wang’s face once again lit up with a smile, and he waved his hand to convey that such formalities were unnecessary.

“Come upstairs with me; I want to have a word with you in private,” the Old Master suddenly said.

Chen Yang was taken aback for a moment but then nodded and agreed.

Following that, Chen Yang went upstairs with Old Master Wang.

Wang Hong and Wang Qingyue, the siblings, wanted to follow, but they were stopped by Wang Guodong.

“The Family Head has something private to discuss with Chen Yang.

What are you two following for?

Just wait here honestly,” Wang Guodong said.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hong immediately halted.

Wang Qingyue, however, pouted with reluctance, very much wanting to overhear the private conversation.

But glancing at Wang Guodong, she eventually settled down beside Wang Hong obediently.

Chen Yang followed Old Master Wang to the second floor, then silently made their way to an office.

The office was decorated entirely in rosewood.

It exuded an atmosphere of grandeur and impressiveness.

Surprisingly, on the wall behind the office desk hung a huge map of mountains.

Seeing the map ignited a sense of familiarity in Chen Yang, yet he couldn’t recall where he had seen it before.

“Have a seat first, I’ll brew some tea for you,” said Old Master Wang after entering the office, inviting Chen Yang to take a seat at the coffee table.

Chen Yang took another glance at the map, then proceeded to the coffee table to sit down.

Seated now, Old Master Wang began to brew the tea with no haste, while Chen Yang’s eyes still fixated on the map.

The map drew his attention not only because it felt familiar, but also because he was somewhat puzzled why Old Master Wang would have such a map hanging on the wall.
