Ye Zixiao kept his word.
Leng Shao’s execution was extremely efficient.
Amidst the heart-wrenching screams, the foul-mouthed, arrogant Wang Han and Sun Mengmeng had their mouths literally torn apart, their legs broken, and were beaten into ghastly apparitions!
Leng Shao’s men finished their work and cleared a space.
“Anyone else?” Leng Shao bellowed, covered in blood.
“Don’t you come near me!”
“I didn’t provoke your big brother.”
“Qingzhu, is that enough?”
The surrounding onlookers gasped in tension. Wang Han and Sun Mengmeng were truly in a terrible state. By this point, everyone had thoroughly understood that provoking Ye Zixiao came with a heavy price.
“They really had it coming!”
Ye Zixiao glanced down, spat, and then addressed Li Lisha and Chu Nantian, “You two, you’re a couple, right? You wanted to harm my wife?”
“Ye Zixiao, you wait.”
Li Lisha was anxiously making a phone call.
“Ye Zixiao, I don’t know what you’re talking about. But you’ve offended me. From now on, I’ll do nothing else but find opportunities to deal with you. You’re finished!”
Chu Nantian, however, wasn’t nervous at all.
“Want to spar?”
Ye Zixiao genuinely wanted to spar.
“You’re not worthy!”
“Fine, since you’re so confident, I’ll wait for you to come after me. Next, I’m going to fulfill my earlier promise. Today, this ‘Pi Gu Wan Mei’ clubhouse is mine to smash.”
“Ye Zixiao, how dare you?!”
Li Lisha, having hung up the phone, roared.
“Watch me dare.”
Ye Zixiao was about to give an order to Leng Shao when suddenly, car horns blared.
Everyone present instinctively turned towards the intersection. They saw two police cars leading a convoy approaching, their destination clearly the Wan Mei clubhouse.
“Ye Zixiao, you’re done for!”
Li Lisha suddenly laughed maniacally.
“What, are you calling reinforcements?”
Ye Zixiao remained unfazed.
“Reinforcements? Heh heh heh. I don’t mind you knowing, my father is here. He’s about to be elected the new mayor. You think you can survive causing trouble here at this time?”
“Mayor! So scary!”
Ye Zixiao feigned covering his eyes.
Upon hearing that the top brass was arriving, the people who had been trembling moments before suddenly found their courage. They all stepped forward, lifted the five ghosts on the ground, and gathered together.
Leng Shao and his fifty-odd men grew a bit nervous upon hearing the mayor’s name. They were hot-headed youths, but they knew that offending someone of the mayor’s caliber was something they truly couldn’t afford.
“This is troublesome!”
Xiao Ai muttered nervously.
“Zixiao, stop making trouble.”
Lin Qingzhu said seriously to Ye Zixiao, “It’s fine that you beat them, but that’s enough. If you truly anger the mayor, Jiang Xiaoyao can’t protect you.”
“Is it that serious?”
“In the past, perhaps not so much. But now it’s different. The mayor is campaigning for votes and attracting investment. Today is a crucial day for investment talks, do you understand?”
“No!”
“In short, don’t cause any more trouble.”
“Alright!”
Ye Zixiao compromised for the time being.
He was certainly not convinced and felt no fear in his heart, but since a way out was presented, there was no need to continue. To cause further trouble would be to directly target the mayor.
After all, this was an important day for attracting investment.
The police cars had already driven forward. Over twenty identical black SUVs drove in two lines and stopped at the main entrance of the clubhouse.
Then, with a roar of engines, a sky-grey Lamborghini Veneno sped forward, exuding an imposing and dominant aura, instantly capturing everyone’s attention.
Screech—
The sound of fierce braking echoed.
The supercar stopped at the main entrance.
A group of men in black who had just emerged from the SUVs immediately surrounded the Lamborghini. Each of them had their hands near their waists, ready to open fire if anything seemed amiss.
Many people rushed out of the clubhouse, dignitaries and influential figures who had been waiting. They all stood at the foot of the steps, smiling obsequiously, craning their necks in anticipation, yet not daring to speak out of turn.
From the luxurious and grand convoy, several officials in formal wear emerged.
A portly man, whose top button couldn’t be fastened, wiped sweat from his brow with a handkerchief. Accompanied by a retinue of officials, he hurried forward from the rear of the convoy, his target being the Lamborghini Veneno.
“That fat man is Li Yan!”
Lin Qingzhu introduced him to Ye Zixiao from within the crowd.
“Li Yan? Who’s that?”
“Li Lisha’s father!”
“Oh, the one about to become mayor?”
“Yes, don’t mess around, okay!”
“Damn, wife, am I a child? Do you have to keep reminding me? And besides, can you, the number one beauty, stop being such a worrywart?”
“You’re so annoying!”
Lin Qingzhu ignored him.
What she hoped for was that with the new mayor’s election imminent, investment attraction was a major affair. Li Yan would ideally be too preoccupied to deal with such trivial matters as beatings, especially since Li Lisha wasn’t the one being beaten!
Countless gazes converged.
Many reporters were taking photographs.
The stout Li Yan, panting, finally arrived beside the incredibly dazzling sports car. At that moment, the car’s two scissor doors began to slowly rise.
There were only two people in the car.
Both were stunning beauties.
Emerging from the passenger seat was Tang Ke Ke, the chairwoman of Beihai City’s number one conglomerate, Long Ding Group. This mysterious and immensely powerful woman immediately drew countless camera flashes as soon as she stepped out.
On the driver’s side, a woman under thirty, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit and sporting a ponytail, exuded a heroic and spirited demeanor that could overshadow all the women present.
Tang Ke Ke possessed professional beauty.
The other woman possessed noble beauty!
She emanated an innate nobility, the kind truly possessed by aristocrats. A wave of her hand and a slight smile was enough to make men infatuated.
“My heavens, it’s Han Shuang!”
Lin Qingzhu, who was watching the spectacle, exclaimed.
“Huh? What does she do?”
A hint of smugness appeared on Ye Zixiao’s face.
“Vice President of the Dragon Country Chamber of Commerce.”
“Vice President? Just vice?”
“You’re ignorant, aren’t you? The Dragon Country General Chamber of Commerce has no official president. This vice president’s personal wealth alone is enough to buy a city. Do you know how much money she manages?”
“A lot?”
“More than a lot, it’s terrifying! Let me put it this way: in a time of war, this woman’s financial power could absolutely help a nation win a war.”
“That’s quite impressive!”
Ye Zixiao finally nodded upon hearing this.
“She’s the richest woman in Dragon Country!”
Lin Qingzhu exclaimed with genuine admiration.
In fact, among the vast crowd at the scene, every corner echoed with such sighs of awe and admiration, filled with envy and worship, with no negative words uttered at all.
The mayor and his officials went up.
Chu Nantian and Li Lisha also went up.
Of course, in the presence of such paramount figures, Chu Nantian and Li Lisha couldn’t get close. They rushed forward to be seen, after all, they were the princess and prince of Beihai.
“Sister Han, your driving skills have improved!”
Tang Ke Ke said with a smile as she walked towards Minister Han Shuang.
“Hi, I haven’t driven in a while.”
Han Shuang naturally took Tang Ke Ke’s hand and said as if chatting about daily life, “How have you been lately? Have you found a boyfriend? Nights alone can be hard to endure.”
“You say that like you have one!”
“I’m so rich, why would I need a man?”
“You need… hahaha…”
The two beauties giggled softly.
