Chapter 740: Retaliate

Ling Xuejiu also saw the message and smiled, "Don’t worry about it. With his current status, dealing with a family like the Bei Family is a piece of cake."

Li Mengjie thought about the fact that Leng Xuan was Liu Yuntian’s godson, and everything clicked in her mind. She giggled, "Uh-huh! That’s true."

This time, Leng Xuan was indeed preparing to leverage the power of Liu Corporation. Against a family force like Bei Yin, fighting and killing could indeed instill fear, but it was too time-consuming, and he didn’t have the patience to play games with them. Therefore, he was planning to strike at them in a different way. The Bei Family had family businesses, didn’t they? Those were the foundations of their existence. If their foundation was shaken, their status would be threatened as well. By then, they would have no choice but to come begging to him.

At lunchtime, Leng Xuan went to the cafeteria alone. He got a plate of food and found a place to sit. Then, he took out a phone number from his cell phone that Liu Yuntian had given him last time and dialed it. It wasn’t long before the call was connected, and a rather hearty voice came from the other end, "Hello! Who’s this?"

From the man’s voice, Leng Xuan guessed that he was a middle-aged man in his forties. He said, "Hello, I am Leng Xuan. May I ask if this is Mr. Hu Zhong?"

At first, there was a moment of surprise on the other end. Then, the tone of voice immediately underwent a one hundred and eighty-degree change, and the man spoke respectfully, "Hello, Young Master Leng, this is Hu Zhong. Elder Liu has already informed me about your matters. What instructions do you have for me? I’ll see to them immediately."

After exchanging pleasantries, Leng Xuan asked, "Do you know about the Bei Family?"

"The Bei Family?" Hu Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "There is one Bei Family with some renown domestically. The current head of the family is named Bei Song, and he has a son and a daughter, called Bei Yin and Bei Lanfeng, respectively. Young Master Leng, is this the Bei Family you are inquiring about?"

"Exactly." Leng Xuan continued, "How powerful are they?"

Hu Zhong replied, "They are a family business, mainly engaged in electronics and chain restaurants. Their assets are just about enough to make it into the top twenty within the country."

Leng Xuan nodded silently to himself. The Bei family indeed had some capabilities, given they were ranked within the country, which meant they had at least a hundred billion in assets. He then asked, "Are they difficult to deal with?"

"Deal with?" Hu Zhong was also astute and immediately grasped the gist of the question. He said, "Be assured, Young Master Leng. Though the Bei Family has some status domestically, they’re not significant enough to stand against Liu Corporation. If they are foolish enough to provoke you, I will teach them a profound lesson."

"I’ll leave it to you then." Leng Xuan had intended to suggest that Hu Zhong consult Elder Liu before proceeding, but seeing Hu Zhong’s confident response, he decided to spare the additional words.

"Not at all, serving Young Master Leng is my honor," Hu Zhong said with a laugh. "If there’s anything you need in the future, just reach out to me."

No sooner had Leng Xuan hung up the phone than he noticed someone had joined him. He turned his head and saw Zhou Li sitting down with her food at the seat next to him. He was momentarily stunned, then greeted her with a smile, "Long time no see." Since the last time when he had strengthened Ling Xuejiu’s security, he had been accompanying them for lunch and seldom came to the cafeteria. Today, Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie had been invited out for a meal by a classmate, and it wasn’t convenient for him to join, so he ended up in the cafeteria alone.
