“You can just quit if you want to, and un-quit if you don’t? Why are you so bossy!”
Song Anran said indignantly, “Even if I ask them to come back now, they might not be willing!”
“If they don’t want to come back, then so be it. It’s hard to find a three-legged toad, but there are plenty of two-legged scientists!”
With that, Chen Xiao hung up the phone before Song Anran could unleash her fury.
Wang Likun finally realized how terrifying Chen Xiao was and pleaded tearfully, “I was wrong, Mr. Chen, please spare me, don’t do this to me, you’re ruining my life…”
“What does it have to do with me if your life is ruined? You said things you shouldn’t have. Not killing you is already my last act of mercy.”
Chen Xiao said indifferently.
“Little sister, you don’t need to beg him. What kind of person is he? The people I called are already on their way and will be here soon. Just wait, and watch your big brother break both his legs to avenge you!”
Brother Wang said indignantly.
“Shut up!”
Wang Likun screamed hoarsely, “What good will it do if your big brother breaks both his legs? My life is ruined by him. What’s the point even if you kill him?”
As she spoke, hurried footsteps were heard from outside.
Immediately after, someone kicked open the private room door, and a group of burly thugs barged in.
Upon seeing these people, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but shake his head in resignation.
He had initially planned to stretch his muscles, but upon seeing this group, he knew it was unnecessary.
Because the leader was Da Jun.
Da Jun was also taken aback when he saw Chen Xiao. What was going on?
Just as he was about to greet Chen Xiao, Brother Wang, as if seeing a savior, rushed over, “Brother Jun, you’re finally here. Damn it, this brat ruined my sister’s life. Break both his legs for me now…”
“You want me to break his legs?”
Da Jun pointed at Chen Xiao and asked incredulously.
“Yes, it’s him. What’s wrong? Is there a problem? Don’t worry, I’ll transfer the money to your account later!”
Brother Wang said confidently.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiao said calmly, “Da Jun, make your move.”
“Yes, Brother Jun, hurry up, this kid is already impatient… Wait, how does he know your name is Da Jun?”
Brother Wang hadn’t processed what was happening before he was grabbed by two big men.
“Brother Jun, what are you doing? Did you make a mistake?”
Brother Wang was flustered, his face filled with fear.
Da Jun drew out a gleaming broadsword and said coldly, “You idiot, you don’t even know Boss Chen, and you dare to mess around in this business? Damn it, you dare to offend Boss Chen, I’ll break your legs first!”
As Da Jun raised the broadsword to strike, Chen Xiao suddenly said, “Do it outside, don’t scare my mother!”
Da Jun’s expression froze, and he then noticed Liu Zhen.
“Auntie, you’re here too. Don’t be scared, we’ll drag him out now!”
Da Jun, who had been ferocious a moment ago, immediately put on a harmless smile when he looked at Liu Zhen.
Liu Zhen was so shocked she couldn’t speak.
Da Jun’s subordinates dragged Brother Wang out.
“Boss Chen, spare me, I really didn’t know it was you. I was wrong, please give me another chance!”
“Spare me, Boss Chen…”
His pleas were met with no mercy from Chen Xiao. Soon, pig-like screams were heard from outside.
But the screams lasted only a few seconds before abruptly stopping, likely because he had fainted from the pain.
Seeing this, Old Man Wang was completely stunned.
He had met Liu Zhen while square dancing. He knew Liu Zhen used to sell flatbreads in the market, and her son was just a small doctor. He had planned to take Liu Zhen as his partner and have a free nanny.
Who would have thought that her son was not only capable but incredibly so?
If he had known she had such a formidable son, he would never have dared to provoke Liu Zhen.
When he noticed Chen Xiao’s gaze fall upon him, Old Man Wang knelt down with a thud and crawled towards Liu Zhen.
“Zhen, I know I was wrong. Can you give me another chance? It’s all these two unfilial brats’ fault, they were the ones who gave me the idea!”
“I’ve thought it through. If you agree, we’ll get the marriage certificate tomorrow, no, right now. From now on, everything in the house will be decided by you. What do you think?”
Even at this moment, he was still dreaming of being with Liu Zhen.
Of course, he wasn’t doing it for Liu Zhen, but for Chen Xiao.
If he had such a capable son, wouldn’t he be able to walk sideways from now on?
Liu Zhen sneered. It seemed Chen Xiao was right; this man was a selfish, cowardly, and effeminate scoundrel.
His son and daughter were both in such a state, yet he still had the nerve to propose to her. His heart only contained himself!
Realizing this, Liu Zhen shivered.
Fortunately, she saw through this man’s true colors today. Otherwise, she couldn’t imagine what would happen if she lived with such a person in the future.
She said coldly, “It’s no use asking me. Don’t you like to listen to your children’s opinions? Coincidentally, I do too. Instead of asking if I agree, you should ask Chen Xiao.”
“Yes, yes, it’s indeed time to ask this child, Chen Xiao!”
Old Man Wang still held a sliver of hope. “Little Chen, what do you think of Uncle Wang? If you entrust your mother to me, you can rest assured, I will treat her well.”
Chen Xiao smiled, “What’s your name?”
“Uncle Wang is Wang Guiming. Does that mean you agree?”
Seeing Chen Xiao smile, Old Man Wang became excited.
However, after Chen Xiao asked his name, he immediately called Mayor Mo, “Mayor Mo, I need a favor. I know an old man named Wang Guiming. He used to be a school principal and is now retired. Please help me check if this old fellow’s hands are clean. If you find anything, I hope you will handle it impartially.”
Mayor Mo, being a shrewd person, understood what Chen Xiao meant as soon as he heard his words and immediately said, “Okay, don’t worry, Chen Xiao. I’ll take care of this. If any issues are found, I will handle them impartially!”
Old Man Wang’s eldest son was clearly useless, yet he could become a big boss earning millions. It was strange if there wasn’t any shady business involved.
Old Man Wang was definitely not clean.
And as Chen Xiao suspected, after Old Man Wang overheard Chen Xiao’s conversation with Mayor Mo, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.
Chen Xiao smiled apologetically at his mother and shrugged helplessly, “I’m sorry, Mom. You finally started dating, and I messed it up, making a mess of everything…”
He thought his mother would be disappointed, but to his surprise, Liu Zhen showed no signs of disappointment. Instead, she looked relieved.
“Silly child, why would Mom blame you? Fortunately, you messed it up for me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known he was this kind of person. You can’t judge a book by its cover. It’s good that we cut our losses in time. This is worth celebrating with dumplings!”
