Chapter 791: Chapter 791: Impending Catastrophe
Li Jingwei didn’t wait to file a complaint before his own dad berated him fiercely.
"Dad, I haven’t offended anyone, so where is this apology coming from?" Li Jingwei was completely baffled, unsure of what was going on.
"Hmm, you don’t know who you’ve offended? Let me tell you, all the family business has come to a halt. We’re in big trouble now. Through some connections, I found out that someone higher up has signaled to make trouble for our family."
"Also, all the shit you’ve pulled over the years has now been exposed. If the other party doesn’t say a word, you might as well wait to go to jail for a few years."
"Dad, don’t scare me."
"We are the Li Family from Longyou, who would dare to offend us?"
Li Jingwei was utterly confused. Their Li Family didn’t just swagger around, they were nearly untouchable, and although he acted wildly outside, he never dared to offend those he couldn’t afford to upset—he was sure of that.
Therefore, over the years, although he had done many things that enraged both heaven and earth, he had managed to smooth them over, and no one dared to say a word. But now, his father was telling him that their family had been targeted, and it was serious.
He might even end up going to prison, which made Li Jingwei completely stunned.
"You don’t know? Then think hard about who you have offended. Let me tell you, if you don’t resolve this mess, you’ll have to face the consequences yourself."
Dial tone buzzing,
Li Jingwei listened to the dial tone from his phone, his head buzzing, while Zheng Ren sitting on the sofa not far away could also hear what was happening on Li Jingwei’s call, from a distance of two or three meters.
Li Jingwei slumped back onto the sofa, still unable to snap back to reality, wondering who he could have possibly offended.
Could it be those men he fought at the Saishang Estate?
That couldn’t be it.
Although one of those men bore the surname Wang, he was clearly just a small fry from the Wang Family, who had cowered on the spot.
Wait.
Could it be...
Li Jingwei remembered the man who had thrown him out the window leaving him in agonizing pain, then had people chase him the entire night, caught him, hung him in the ship’s hold for two or three hours, and finally dumped him into the river—that bastard Li Feng.
It couldn’t be him, could it?
Li Jingwei suddenly recalled that Li Feng had made a phone call right in front of him; could it be...
Li Jingwei shook his head vigorously, then recalled the words Li Feng had said on the deck.
You dare to mess with me without even knowing what background I have.
Are you impossibly brave or just incredibly foolish?
With this thought, Li Jingwei suddenly looked up at Zheng Ren sitting beside him; "Zheng Ren, you know, don’t you?"
"Uh, what do I know?"
"Li Feng, who is he really, what’s his background? Cui Boyu that son of a bitch brought me over from the Northwest to use me as his pawn, didn’t he?"
Zheng Ren looked at Li Jingwei, whose eyes were bulging. Despite his crudeness, the man had some brains, but it was only now that he was catching on.
"Li Feng is Li Feng. As for his background, aside from being the chairman of Century, he’s also the financier behind several money shops in Huacheng, and his old man is Li Mingrui."
"Li Mingrui of the Li Family from Jin City?"
Zheng Ren had also just found out. He knew before that Li Feng’s father was Li Mingrui, but Li Feng was a bastard, staying with his mother’s side, not close with the Li Family, which is why they dared to press Li Feng.
Otherwise, given Li Feng’s status as the Crown Prince, they wouldn’t have dared to act recklessly, not even if they had ten times the courage.
As for the fact that Li Feng was a financier daddy, he had only just learned of this, with the information being passed back by the Lu Family.
The Lu Family had participated in last night’s Taotie meeting and learned quite a bit about Li Feng; knowing all this, Zheng Ren felt extremely fortunate that he hadn’t been the one to stick his neck out.
Cui Boyu had pulled him into this, but Li Jingwei hadn’t managed to do anything yet.
An unfortunate stroke of luck.
Otherwise, he might not have fared any better than Li Jingwei.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jingwei just sat there numbly in the sofa: "He is actually Li Mingrui’s son..."
This ’Li’ from Li Mingrui clearly had a status no lower than any of the other seven families and five surnames, including the two Li Families. They didn’t need to kowtow to them to honor their ancestors; on the contrary, it was them who needed to curry favor with the others. After all, the seven families and five surnames nowadays were not what they were a thousand years ago; they didn’t even dare to defy Imperial Gold City.
"Li Jingwei, take care of yourself."
Zheng Ren didn’t stay to console Li Jingwei. It was better to stay away from that guy in the future. Before this, Li Jingwei had been arrogantly invincible, and it was only a matter of time before his arrogance caused trouble. Zheng Ren just hadn’t expected him to fall so hard.
It wasn’t long after Zheng Ren left that Li Jingwei suddenly came to his senses. He couldn’t just sit there doing nothing; he had to solve this problem, or he was finished.
He did not want to go to jail.
He had done quite a few things over the years, even caused accidental manslaughter. He had got away with it in the past because the Li Family was influential, but now facing someone even more powerful, the result might end up being like a volcano erupting. All the messes from the past could very well be dug up now.
Myth Communication.
Ding Dong.
The elevator doors hadn’t fully opened when Li Jingwei rushed out, heading straight to the reception desk of Myth.
"Is Li Feng here?"
When Chu Shiyu saw Li Jingwei again, she shivered inside. Why had this guy come back? When he came yesterday, he did more than flirt with her—he had even mentioned Linda irrespectibly.
Had it not been for their CEO, Li Feng, arriving in time, the two of them might have been grossly taken advantage of by him.
"Why is it you again, our company does not welcome you, please leave."
Chu Shiyu picked up the phone next to her and called the building’s security.
"Is this the security department...!"
Seeing Chu Shiyu’s attitude, Li Jingwei had no intention of wasting time with her and immediately turned around and rushed into the company.
When Chu Shiyu saw Li Jingwei charging into the company, she quickly hung up the phone and followed after him.
Bang.
The CEO’s office door was forcibly slammed open by Li Jingwei. Jiang Linda was reporting to Li Feng and when they heard the noise, they turned and saw Li Jingwei barging in.
"You, why is it you again."
Jiang Linda couldn’t forget this guy who had dared to corner her against a wall and shamelessly expressed his desire to sleep with her. She hadn’t expected him to have the audacity to come back again.
"Linda, CEO, he forced his way in, I couldn’t stop him," Chu Shiyu followed into the office and said nervously.
"Li Feng, it was you, wasn’t it."
Li Jingwei stood in front of the desk, glaring at Li Feng.
Li Feng looked up at the gritting Li Jingwei: "Oh, what do you mean it was me?"
"My family’s mine has been shut down, and the company is being investigated. You did all this, didn’t you."
Li Feng sarcastically chuckled; he had sought help from Zhu Jun, who had made a couple of phone calls on his behalf.
But the Li family had it coming. Their mine had failed safety inspections and even engaged in illegal mining, while Li Jingwei himself had numerous issues. Two years ago, he had even caused a fatal car accident, which was hushed up with money, but it left many loose ends.
There wouldn’t have been any issues if it had not been investigated, but once investigated, it was game over.
"You’re talking about that, huh? Yes, I did it. So what, you want to bite me?"
