Chapter 248: Chapter 0248: Are You Satisfied? (Tenth Update)

Even though he knew the matter wouldn’t be resolved so easily, when Chu Ge personally said it out loud, Xiahou Longhu’s face still felt a chill in his heart.

Staring intently at Chu Ge, after a while, he suddenly turned his head to the old man behind him and said, "Break both of his legs! Additionally, chop off one of his little fingers."

The old man nodded, then walked towards Xiahou Renjie.

At this moment, Xiahou Renjie’s face finally changed, looking at Xiahou Longhu in disbelief.

The relationship between the two had never been good from childhood, but, after all, he was still his son, he could not imagine Xiahou Longhu would actually issue such an order, and seemingly without the slightest hesitation!

Xiahou Renjie seemed to still want to struggle, but how could a profligate spoiled by wine and women escape the grasp of a postnatal martial artist?

Soon, a scream echoed through the corridor.

And the old man then returned to the private room, nodding at Xiahou Longhu.

Taking a deep breath, Xiahou Longhu looked at Chu Ge and said in a heavy tone, "With this disposition, I wonder if Mr. Chu finds it satisfactory?"

It must be said, Xiahou Longhu’s handling style could be considered swift and decisive. At that moment, Chu Ge also withdrew the pressure from his body, nodding indifferently, "Since you have given a response, I will treat this incident as if it never happened!"

"But—" As he spoke, Chu Ge turned the conversation, looking towards the others, "The Xiahou Family Head has given his account, what about yours?"

"Each person, must cede fifty percent of their shares to the Jinxiu Group!" Xiahou Longhu had clearly spent some time in the corridor before, having heard every word of the conversation there, he continued in Chu Ge’s stead at this moment.

"I—" The man in the grey suit was on the verge of tears, he could never have expected that this seemingly inconspicuous young man would have such a significant backing!

"Oh yes." Chu Ge suddenly looked towards him, saying coldly with a sneer, "For the others it’s fifty percent, but for you, it’s eighty percent!"

"You said what?" The man in the grey suit widened his eyes, looking at Chu Ge in disbelief.

"Mr. Chu, leave these people to me," Xiahou Longhu suddenly spoke in a low voice.

Chu Ge gave him a look and nodded, "Alright, then I’ll trouble the Xiahou Family Head with this matter."

Hearing Chu Ge’s words, Xiahou Longhu couldn’t help but reveal a look of joy. Delegating this matter to him implied that Chu Ge wouldn’t pursue the issue with Xiahou Renjie anymore, and through this incident, the Xiahou Family had once again established a connection with Chu Ge!

The following proceedings were naturally much simpler. Chu Ge had intended to return with Mu Bingtong, but Xiahou Longhu said that the heads of their three families were all gathered in a manor, waiting for his arrival.

After arranging for Mu Bingtong to be sent back, Chu Ge followed Xiahou Longhu to the said manor.

The geographical location of the manor was excellent. To secure this land, not only did it require a huge sum of money but also significant connections and influence, of course, these were not a big deal for the Four Great Families.

At the entrance of the manor, Mr. Ouyang and Mr. Sima were already waiting. Seeing Chu Ge step out of the car, both old masters walked over briskly.

"Hehehe, I heard that a whelp from the Xiahou Family has offended Mr. Chu; indeed, it’s a failing of the Xiahou Family Head’s discipline!" Old Man Sima seemed impatient, but having reached the status of an old master, which of them was a fool?

At first glance, his words seemed to touch a sensitive topic, but in reality, he was covertly pleading on behalf of Xiahou Longhu, who cast a grateful look at Old Man Sima.

Chu Ge shook his head, speaking softly, "Since the Xiahou Family Head has given me a satisfactory account, let’s put this matter behind us."

Once these words were spoken, both old masters, including Xiahou Longhu, breathed a sigh of relief. Although Chu Ge had already said it once in the private room, this, said in front of the two old masters, obviously carried more credibility.

"Old Man Sima, always bringing up what should not be mentioned; since it’s all in the past, why dredge it up? Come, Mr. Chu, what do you think of this newly built manor?"

Mr. Ouyang feigned a scowl at Old Man Sima, laughing and cursing to close the topic, then looked at Chu Ge with a smile.

"Oh?" Chu Ge glanced at the elegant manor in front of him and nodded, "It seems nice, so please, lead the way, you two old masters."

The two old men exchanged glances, smiled, and began to show Chu Ge around the manor.

It was evident that a massive amount of money had been spent on building this manor. The layout was exquisite, yet everywhere there was an air of natural grace, as if all of it was not man-made but inherently intrinsic.

What’s more, it may have been a coincidence, but the location of this manor just so happened to be at the center where Shanghai’s Spiritual Energy converged, meaning the Spiritual Energy here was about twice that of the outside.

"Mr. Chu, how do you like this manor?"

Mr. Ouyang suddenly asked Chu Ge with a smile.

"Very nice." Chu Ge nodded and praised.

"Hahahaha, I was sure that Mr. Chu would be pleased." Mr. Ouyang laughed heartily, then looked at Chu Ge and said, "Mr. Chu, starting from today, this manor belongs to you."

"Hm?" Chu Ge was taken aback, though his face didn’t show too much of an apparent change of expression.

After all, having witnessed the power of Jian Chunqiu, these worldly possessions had become hard to affect his mindset. If one reaches the Divinity Realm, what is the value of power and wealth anyway?

Seeing this reaction from Chu Ge, a hint of astonishment passed through the old men’s eyes.

After all, this was no small matter. A manor, especially in a place like Shanghai where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, its value was immeasurable. Any person who heard such news would likely be ecstatic, perhaps even doubting if they were in a dream.

And yet, Chu Ge, barely into his twenties, was only momentarily puzzled by the news. This mindset was rare in the world!

"Hehe, actually, it is to express our thanks," Mr. Ouyang eventually spoke.

He looked at Chu Ge and continued with a sigh, "Previously on the cruise, if it weren’t for Mr. Chu, I’m afraid we old men would have all been in peril. And moreover, after Duan Congxing’s death, our three families benefited greatly from the Duan Family."

"That’s right." Mr. Sima nodded, adding, "We originally planned to give Mr. Chu shares, but after discussing, we decided to gift this manor to Mr. Chu as a token of our gratitude. Please do not refuse!"
