Zhang Shiwen then spoke, "It seems Boss Xu still doesn't grasp the situation."
"Between a piece of scrap paper and a million dollars, which do you think is better?"
"Zhang Shiwen, you're pushing your luck too far!" Xu Xiaohui exclaimed angrily, witnessing the scene.
"Slap!"
Suddenly, Zhang Shiwen raised his hand and slapped Xu Xiaohui across the face.
"Ah!"
Xu Xiaohui cried out and fell to the ground.
"Xiaohui!" Seeing his daughter being hit, Xu Chengping tried to step forward.
But Zhang Shiwen pinned him to his chair.
Zhang Shiwen glanced at the disheveled Xu Xiaohui, "Damn it, if you weren't somewhat good-looking, I would have dealt with you long ago. Do you think you have the right to act so brazenly in front of me?!"
Xu Xiaohui clutched her face, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
Then, Zhang Shiwen turned to Xu Chengping, "You dog, I'll say it again. If you don't hand over the item, I'll have my subordinates take turns experiencing Miss Xu right in front of you."
"I'll give it, I'll give it!"
Xu Chengping sobbed uncontrollably, completely terrified.
He, a mere owner of a traditional Chinese medicine shop, could not afford to offend the powers of these influential families.
Seeing Xu Chengping compromise, Zhang Shiwen finally released him.
However, he still said dismissively, "You people are all just cheapskates. Without a beating, you don't know your own limits."
Xu Chengping stood up and walked towards the safe behind him.
That was where the medicinal formula and Chen Mo's intellectual property patent were stored.
Chen Mo had not taken the patent away earlier, so it had been left with Xu Chengping.
"Old Xu, it's still daytime and not yet closing time, why have you locked the door? There's no one in the shop, what's going on?"
However, at this moment, a voice sounded from outside the door.
The sudden voice immediately drew the attention of everyone in the office, all looking towards the doorway.
After the voice, a figure appeared at the door.
Judging by the voice, the person had a good relationship with Xu Chengping, directly addressing him as "Old Xu."
However, when Xu Chengping saw who had arrived at the door, his face suddenly changed, showing alarm.
The person who arrived was none other than Chen Mo, who had rushed over from home.
Chen Mo had originally intended to call Xu Chengping to inquire about the situation with the medicated plaster.
But after some thought, he decided to come and see for himself.
What Chen Mo hadn't expected was that upon his arrival, the shop was locked, and there was no one inside.
Chen Mo entered through the side door. Seeing that the office door on the second floor was open, he decided to go up and take a look.
When Chen Mo saw the situation in the room, his brows furrowed slightly.
The smile on his face also vanished.
"Mr. Chen," Xu Chengping stammered.
Chen Mo glanced at the scene in the office, noticing about a dozen bodyguards in black, all staring at him menacingly.
The man in the white suit was also sizing him up.
"Kid, get out of here immediately," Zhang Shiwen said coldly.
Seeing Xu Chengping's demeanor and the woman lying on the ground, Chen Mo did not leave. Instead, he walked into the office with a grim expression.
"Mr. Chen, you, you should leave quickly. I'll explain to you tomorrow," Xu Chengping urged, fearing Chen Mo might be in danger.
But Chen Mo was unfazed.
"Old Xu, what's going on?" Chen Mo asked, gesturing to the people around him.
Xu Chengping, trembling, dared not say much, constantly signaling Chen Mo to leave.
But Chen Mo remained unmoved.
"Damn it, don't you understand what I'm saying? I told you to get out! Not everything is your business, understand!" Zhang Shiwen glared fiercely at Chen Mo.
At the same time, two bodyguards had already stepped forward, closing in on Chen Mo.
Chen Mo looked at Zhang Shiwen, "What if I don't leave? What if I decide to mind this business?"
"Hehehehehe!"
Zhang Shiwen chuckled, then waved his hand dismissively, "Then let this kid know the consequences of meddling!"
The two bodyguards reached out towards Chen Mo.
"Slap slap!"
However, before the two bodyguards could touch Chen Mo,
Chen Mo had already raised his hands and slapped both bodyguards in front of him.
The two bodyguards spun around on the spot.
If their bones weren't strong enough, that one slap could have broken their necks!
Even the mouths of the two bodyguards were crooked from Chen Mo's slap.
Seeing that Chen Mo dared to fight back, Zhang Shiwen's expression darkened, "What are you standing around for? Take him down!"
Zhang Shiwen roared.
This time, all the bodyguards in the office charged at Chen Mo.
They hadn't even seen Chen Mo's previous move clearly, and they certainly wouldn't dare to underestimate him again.
"Bang!"
Chen Mo kicked out.
A bodyguard was sent flying, crashing hard against the wall.
After falling to the ground, he foamed at the mouth and rolled his eyes, clearly having lost consciousness.
The other bodyguards were no different; in Chen Mo's hands, they couldn't even last a single move!
Xu Chengping was stunned.
Xu Xiaohui was also stunned.
As for Zhang Shiwen, his eyes widened, his eyeballs almost popping out, his face filled with disbelief.
In just over ten seconds, the bodyguards he had brought were all sprawled on the ground.
Zhang Shiwen stared blankly at the scene before him, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
He even wondered if he was hallucinating.
It wasn't until Chen Mo walked up to Zhang Shiwen and waved his hand in front of Zhang Shiwen's eyes that Zhang Shiwen finally came back to his senses from the shock.
"Ah!"
Zhang Shiwen shrieked and stumbled back a few steps, looking at Chen Mo with terror.
His scream also jolted Xu Chengping and Xu Xiaohui awake.
Chen Mo ignored Zhang Shiwen and turned to Xu Chengping, asking, "Old Xu, what exactly happened?"
Xu Chengping mumbled, unwilling to speak.
After all, he truly didn't want Chen Mo to offend the Zhang family!
One had to know that they were an influential family, not someone like them, a small fry, could offend.
However, Xu Xiaohui paid no mind to this and asked Chen Mo in shock, "You, you are Mr. Chen?"
Chen Mo nodded, confused, "That's right, and you are?"
"My name is Xu Xiaohui, and this is my father!"
Chen Mo looked at Xu Xiaohui with some surprise. He hadn't expected Xu Chengping to have such a beautiful daughter.
"Mr. Chen, the situation is like this. They took a liking to your medicinal formula. We refused to sell it, so they cut off our medicinal ingredient supply, constantly caused trouble at our shop, and blocked all sales channels for our medicated plasters."
"They came here today to forcibly buy our formula."
Hearing this, Chen Mo's face instantly darkened.
He looked at Xu Chengping with icy eyes, "Old Xu, why didn't you call me?"
