Li Zhe's frantic action caused everyone's expression to change drastically.
He looked so fierce, so ferocious, as if he wished he could tear Wu Tian to shreds!
Facing his ferocity, Wu Tian did not waver in the slightest. With a sudden kick, Li Zhe was sent flying and crashed into the wall.
"Ah..." Li Zhe clutched his stomach, letting out a cry of pain.
Zhong Shan reacted, pointing at Li Zhe and scolding with a trembling voice, "You, you really have a lot of nerve!"
"I must punish you severely, there are absolutely no conditions for negotiation!"
Bai Ruoqi's face was also gloomy. She immediately shouted, "Someone, someone!"
Several bodyguards rushed in. Bai Ruoqi pointed at Li Zhe and said angrily, "Arrest him!"
The bodyguards held Li Zhe tightly. Although Li Zhe struggled with all his might, with his strength, how could he compare to those bodyguards?
Seeing that escape was impossible, Li Zhe finally came to his senses, realizing how absurd his actions had been.
As the anger subsided, fear filled his heart once more.
He hurriedly shouted, "President Bai, President Bai! I know I was wrong, please let me go!"
Bai Ruoqi's pretty face was icy cold. She said, "You dared to attack my friend in front of me. Do you think I would let you off so easily?"
"You can start preparing to spend a few years in jail!"
Li Zhe's face had almost lost all color. He kept begging for mercy, but Bai Ruoqi paid him no mind.
At this moment, Wu Tian raised his hand and said, "Wait a moment, don't take him away so quickly. That wouldn't be good."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhe immediately felt a glimmer of hope.
He shouted at Wu Tian, "Doctor Wu, please help me. I really don't dare anymore. Help me!"
He had originally thought that Wu Tian's interjection was to save him.
But to his surprise, Wu Tian opened his mouth and said with a light laugh, "The bet between him and me hasn't been fulfilled yet. We have to let him fulfill the bet before anything else."
A sense of immense despair instantly filled Li Zhe's heart.
He looked at Wu Tian's smile, feeling a shadow descend from the sky and envelop him.
This person... is truly a devil!
Afterward, under the escort of the bodyguards, Li Zhe was forced to fulfill the bet and was then taken away.
His later life was basically ruined. After all, offending both Tian Bao Group and Zhong Group simultaneously meant that even an immortal would shed some skin…
After returning to the office, Zhong Shan said to Wu Tian with a face full of gratitude, "Wu Tian, thank you so much this time."
"If it weren't for you, I would be dead by now!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "President Zhong, why do you still say this? Haven't I told you, this is a doctor's duty. You don't need to thank me."
Zhong Shan said, "How can I not thank you? You saved my life!"
"But I don't know how to thank you. How about I invite you to my house for dinner tomorrow!"
Wu Tian was not interested in such things, so he shook his head and said, "Let's forget it. For me, your recovery is the best thing. Everything else doesn't matter."
Wu Tian's words impressed both Zhong Shan and Zhong Shi.
This was the demeanor of a great physician, someone whose heart was only for saving lives and not for profit. To achieve this at such a young age was truly astonishing.
Bai Ruoqi looked at Wu Tian's retreating back, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve into a slight smile.
Wu Tian's attitude made her feel very pleased.
But she still said, "Wu Tian, just agree to him. It's just a meal, what's the big deal?"
"Besides, if you don't go, they'll feel bad about it."
"Moreover, the CEO of the Zhong Group is not someone who casually invites people to dinner. I think it's not very appropriate for you to refuse like this."
Zhong Shan nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Wu Tian, please give me this face. I sincerely want to thank you. Consider it my request, okay?"
Wu Tian was somewhat surprised by Bai Ruoqi's attitude.
But he was a smart person and knew that Bai Ruoqi must have some intention. So, he nodded and said, "Alright, then give me the address, and I'll come find you tomorrow."
Zhong Shan was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly said, "No, no, how can I let you come to me? I'll send a special car to pick you up tomorrow!"
Wu Tian agreed. Then, Bai Ruoqi added, "Also, there's one more thing I need to tell you. I've decided to take you off Tian Bao Group's blacklist."
"What?" This sudden surprise made the Zhong brothers extremely astonished.
Zhong Shan said with a trembling voice, "President Bai, why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Bai Ruoqi said, "I never intended to target your Zhong family. My suppression was merely a form of punishment."
"But you nearly died for this matter just now. I think the punishment is enough. So, I'll let you off this time."
"But if there's a next time, I will not be so lenient."
This was a great piece of news for the Zhong Group!
The Zhong brothers wished they could kneel down to Bai Ruoqi. They quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, President Bai, thank you so much!"
"President Bai, don't worry, from now on, we are people of Tian Bao Group."
"If you need anything, our Zhong Group will definitely provide full assistance without any hesitation!"
Bai Ruoqi said coolly, "You may leave now."
Zhong Shan and Zhong Shi did not linger. The two exchanged glances and then quickly left.
Seeing them leave the office, Wu Tian sat back on the sofa, picked up his tea, took a sip, and smiled, "I must say, your methods are quite something!"
Bai Ruoqi looked at Wu Tian and asked, "Methods? What do you mean?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Isn't it? Beat them up first, then give them a sweet, and they'll be loyal to you."
"Even the Zhong Group is loyal to you. Doesn't that mean you've unified the entire county?"
"From now on, you will be the absolute authority in the county. Who would dare to defy your will?"
"Moreover, this can become your base in the future. When participating in family struggles, you will have considerable capital."
Wu Tian's words stunned Bai Ruoqi.
But she quickly shook her head and said, "You've misunderstood me. I never thought of it that way."
"Oh?" Wu Tian raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling very interested.
"Then what do you mean? Can you explain it to me?"
