The slap from Qin Han Chu left the young man flushed with anger.
Michael was a distinguished guest of Teng Chong Group. As the group's representative, he had to watch helplessly as Michael was beaten.
If the chairman held him accountable, he would definitely lose his job.
In the current situation, the only way he could keep his job was to teach Qin Han Chu a harsh lesson.
"Summon all the mall security guards to the third floor!" the young man furiously yelled at the security outside.
This mall was an asset of Teng Chong Group. As a supervisor from the head office, the young man naturally had the authority to command the security guards here.
"How dare you hit me? I'll kill you!" Michael roared, his eyes blazing with rage.
"Jin Hailu, your Jin Shi Group is finished. How dare you hit my boyfriend? No one can protect you," Yuan Yazhen said, helping Michael up and reprimanding him with fiery anger.
"What the hell is a foreign power doing being so arrogant in Da Yan Country!" Qin Han Chu said dismissively.
Just then, fifteen security guards responsible for the mall's safety rushed in.
"All of you, attack!" the young man pointed at Qin Han Chu and shouted.
"Stop!" Just as the guards were about to move, a woman suddenly burst in.
She had a stylish bob cut and wore a black suit.
"Miss!" Seeing the woman, the young man from Teng Chong Group hurriedly greeted her.
The woman with short hair, her face stern, approached Qin Han Chu. She said, "Mr. Qin, Teng Chong Group has offended you greatly. Please forgive us."
What was going on!
This scene stunned the young man from Teng Chong Group.
Yuan Yazhen and Michael also looked at the short-haired woman in surprise.
"Who are you?" Qin Han Chu asked curiously.
"I am Teng Meijia of Teng Chong Group, and my father is the current chairman!"
Teng Meijia had witnessed everything at the Han family's manor, so she was well aware of Qin Han Chu's power.
Since even the Han family had been destroyed by Qin Han Chu, what right did her Teng Chong Group have to oppose him?
"Teng Meijia, what do you mean by this?"
"This person hit Michael, and you're trying to make peace with him?" Yuan Yazhen exclaimed angrily.
Teng Meijia had only seen her company's guards about to attack Qin Han Chu. She had no idea what had happened until now.
Yuan Yazhen's words made Teng Meijia's heart panic.
Neither Qin Han Chu nor Michael were people her Teng Chong Group could afford to provoke.
Caught between these two factions, what should Teng Chong Group do?
This was truly a case of gods fighting, and mortals suffering.
"Teng Meijia! Are you going to help him?" Michael also demanded angrily.
Hearing Michael's questioning, Teng Meijia replied with difficulty, "Young Master Michael, you are both important figures, and we at Teng Chong Group are just a small company. We dare not get involved in your conflict."
"Teng Meijia, you are truly shortsighted!"
"Michael is the heir to a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, and who is this person? How can he be compared to Michael's family?"
"With Michael as your backing, Teng Chong Group, what is there to fear?"
Yuan Yazhen assumed Qin Han Chu's background was similar to Jin Shi Group's, so she completely disregarded Qin Han Chu.
Although Michael's family had considerable influence, he was ultimately from an overseas conglomerate.
Falling out with Michael would at most result in a loss of business interests.
But Qin Han Chu was different.
If they angered Qin Han Chu, they might suffer the same fate as the Han family.
"Young Master Michael, Teng Chong Group truly faces difficulties. We hope for your understanding." Teng Meijia first apologized to Michael, then said to Qin Han Chu, "Mr. Qin, Teng Chong Group will not participate in your dispute. May we take our leave for now?"
"You may go," Qin Han Chu said.
Teng Meijia felt as if she had been granted a great pardon. She was afraid that Qin Han Chu would not let their Teng Chong Group off easily.
"Let's go." Led by Teng Meijia, the Teng Chong Group guards quickly dispersed.
The young man from earlier kept his head lowered throughout the entire ordeal, terrified that Qin Han Chu would detain him.
Teng Meijia would rather offend Michael than dare to oppose Qin Han Chu, which showed that Qin Han Chu's background was certainly not weaker than Michael's.
If Qin Han Chu decided to retaliate against him, what right would he have to resist?
Teng Meijia's departure surprised Yuan Yazhen and Michael.
Was Teng Chong Group not afraid that Michael's family would sever their business relationship?
At this moment, Michael sensed that Qin Han Chu was no ordinary person.
However, even so, he still did not fear Qin Han Chu.
With the backing of a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, Michael was confident he could contend with Qin Han Chu.
"I've noted you down. I will return this slap," Michael said, pulling Yuan Yazhen away.
"I've caused you trouble," Jin Hailu said to Qin Han Chu.
"What trouble is this? It's merely a small interlude to spice up life," Qin Han Chu said with a smile.
"Don't let it affect your mood for shopping. Let's continue," Lin Ying said with a smile.
...
Michael and his group left the mall and directly got into a Rolls-Royce.
Sitting in the car, Michael covered his burning cheek, his heart filled with rage.
He picked up his phone and dialed a number.
When the call was answered, an elder's voice came through: "Young Master Michael, what can I do for you?"
"Come to Da Yan Country," Michael said.
"What happened?" the elder asked, sensing the anger in Michael's voice.
Michael's eyes were filled with fury as he spoke with immense humiliation, "I was slapped in Da Yan Country."
"What? Where are the guards?" the elder shouted in anger.
"This person's martial arts are very strong. The guards couldn't even last ten seconds against him," Michael said.
Upon hearing this, the elder said coldly, "I'll book my flight immediately. I'll be there by tomorrow evening."
After hanging up, Michael sneered, "Just wait. I'll make you understand the price of slapping me."
"Darling, just kill him!" Yuan Yazhen said angrily.
"It's not impossible," Michael said, his eyes gleaming with malice.
Teng Chong Group.
Teng Meijia rushed into the chairman's office anxiously.
Chairman Teng looked at his daughter in surprise and asked, "What is it that has you so flustered?"
"Dad, something major has happened..." Teng Meijia recounted the events at the mall.
"What? What should we do?" Chairman Teng was extremely worried. The situation was truly difficult to handle.
If they lost the business from the Michael family, Teng Chong Group would suffer immense losses.
It might even cause Teng Chong Group to fall from a first-tier group to a second-tier one.
"Qin Han Chu is a peak ninth-rank expert. We can't afford to offend him," Teng Meijia said.
"Let's invite Michael over. We need to explain our predicament to him," Chairman Teng said grimly, "Hopefully, Michael will understand our difficulties."
"Dad, should I send some gifts to Yuan Yazhen? If she can speak on our behalf, maybe Young Master Michael won't blame us," Teng Meijia suggested.
Chairman Teng nodded repeatedly, pondering, "Didn't your mother buy a diamond necklace for fifty million? Let's give it to her!"
