Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife - Chapter 249: Killing to the Front Door to Collect Debts!
The joy on their faces curdled into fear, and a wave of panic washed over them. After all, they had personally experienced Chen Xiao’s terrifying strength.
Luo Qingli’s face was a mask of frost as she strode inside, her cold eyes sweeping over them. "It seems you all had a wonderful time picking out cars."
Lin Kaitai added from the side, "President Luo, these guys are incredibly greedy. I offered them a fifty-percent discount just now, and they didn’t even bat an eye."
"Only when I said ninety-percent off did they finally show some interest."
"You fat bastard, were you playing us?" one of the young men snarled, glaring at Lin Kaitai.
"Hehe, if I hadn’t strung you along, how else could I have kept you here?" Lin Kaitai touched his cheek and sneered. "Damn it. I’ve been making a name for myself in Yuncheng City for years, and no one has ever dared to touch this handsome face of mine. You little bastards walked right into the line of fire today!"
The men were silent. His face, maybe... but handsome? Let’s not get carried away.
Chen Xiao’s smile was laced with menace. "A fifty-percent discount is out of the question. A few broken bones, on the other hand, is a deal I can make."
Zhang Yaqing’s eyes blazed with fury. "Remember what I told you this morning when you were trashing my casino? Well, this lady is back with her man to settle the score!"
The men’s faces turned ashen. "We’re from the Feather Forest Army..."
Xu Yanran sneered. "It’s pathetic that the Feather Forest Army has scum like you among its ranks."
"Who do you think you are, insulting the Feather Forest Army?"
"I am Xu Yanran, a Second Level Commander of Dragon Soul and the personal assistant to its Head Instructor, Leng Baiyu," she stated calmly. "Am I qualified?"
The men’s eyelids twitched violently. They never expected this woman to have such a powerful background. A Second Level Commander of Dragon Soul was only a step below Young Master Jin. If you added her role as the personal assistant to the Head Instructor, then perhaps not even Jin Zilong would dare to cross her.
Chen Xiao couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on them. "I hear you’re all quite good at running around. In two days, you hit over a dozen establishments belonging to the Zongheng Chamber of Commerce and the Luo Group, always manufacturing some excuse to cause trouble. Which leg are you willing to leave behind today?"
"Chen Xiao, don’t be so arrogant! We’re not afraid of you anymore!"
"Miss Lu has someone with her now, a..."
The young man’s words were cut short by a horrifying shriek.
Chen Xiao brutally stomped on the man’s leg, snapping it. Blood gushed out, creating a ghastly sight.
"So noisy." Chen Xiao knocked him unconscious with a single punch.
Seeing his savagery, the others were terrified and immediately started begging for mercy, confessing that Jin Zilong had sent them.
Chen Xiao had no patience for their nonsense. He methodically broke one leg on each of them.
Agonized screams echoed through the Auto City.
Then, with a single heavy punch for each man, Chen Xiao crudely knocked them all out.
Only one young man remained. He trembled uncontrollably, trying to scoot backward by pushing off with his one good leg.
Chen Xiao didn’t waste words on him either. He squatted down, patted the man’s cheek, and asked coldly, "Where is that damn bootlicker, Jin Zilong?"
Fighting through the excruciating pain, the young man stammered, "He’s... he’s at Ming Lake Restaurant! Private Room 288! He’s hosting a welcome banquet for Old Mr. Li with Miss Lu!"
Chen Xiao kicked him in the head.
The man went limp and fell unconscious.
Chen Xiao glanced back at Xu Yanran. "Give me a hand. Stuff them into sacks."
"Why me?" Xu Yanran asked, displeased.
"Because you’re so kind-hearted," Chen Xiao said.
Xu Yanran gave him the middle finger and pouted, but she still went over and helped stuff the men into sacks.
"Don’t kill them. They’re worth money," Chen Xiao reminded her.
"You’re going to use them to threaten Jin Zilong?" Xu Yanran’s eyes lit up.
"Obviously," Chen Xiao scoffed. "We can’t just take a loss, can we?"
"Lord Chen, you’re a genius!" Robin chimed in, eager to flatter.
"You help too!" Chen Xiao kicked him in the rear.
"I get a cut of the money," Robin said, cheerfully starting to stuff the men into sacks.
「Ming Lake Restaurant, Private Room 288」
Lu Rugao, Li Xianqun, and Jin Zilong were dining together.
Jin Zilong was constantly trying to make conversation with Lu Rugao, but she treated him with disdain, offering only perfunctory replies. This left Li Xianqun feeling helpless. The Lu Family had always hoped for a marriage alliance with the Jin Family, but it was clear that Lu Rugao had no interest in this man. After spending the day with him, Li Xianqun had to agree; Jin Zilong was all brawn and no brains. No wonder Lu Rugao looked down on him.
Suddenly!
CRASH!
The door to the private room was kicked open.
Then, four or five large sacks were tossed inside, rolling to a stop on the floor.
The expressions of the three diners darkened instantly. When Jin Zilong saw the heads sticking out of the sacks, his eyes went wide with shock.
Then, Chen Xiao’s tall figure appeared in the doorway.
"Chen Xiao!" Lu Rugao gritted her teeth, her eyes burning with fury.
Chen Xiao offered a slight smile. "Miss Lu, why so angry?"
"I am hosting a welcoming banquet for Senior Li! What are you doing here?" Lu Rugao shot to her feet, slamming her hands on the table. "Do you really think I can’t do anything to you?"
"I’m not here for you." Chen Xiao shrugged, his gaze shifting to Jin Zilong. "Damn bootlicker, get out here."
Jin Zilong’s face flushed with anger. He stood up and yelled, "Who are you calling a bootlicker?"
I’m just a man deeply in love, you know? Ever since I fell for Lu Rugao, I haven’t even touched myself. I’ve been saving myself for her.
Chen Xiao said coldly, "For the past two days, you’ve had your men harass stores under the Luo Group and the Zongheng Chamber of Commerce. Now, you’ve been caught red-handed. How do you plan to settle this?"
"You’re supposed to be a man of some standing. How could you stoop to such despicable methods?"
Jin Zilong retorted coolly, "So what if I sent them to cause trouble? What can you do about it? Go on, kill me! With Senior Li here, do you think I’m afraid of you?"
Li Xianqun raised his head, his eyes sweeping over Chen Xiao with cold disdain. "So you’re the boy Ruge mentioned? You seem rather ordinary."
His hand closed around the hilt of his sword, a sharp, murderous aura beginning to emanate from him.
"This has nothing to do with you," Chen Xiao said flatly. "Stay out of it."
Li Xianqun laughed in anger. "Ruge is hosting a banquet here in my honor. You barge in and cause a scene, and you dare say it has nothing to do with me? Young man, you are far too arrogant!"
SLAP!
The next second, Chen Xiao’s hand cracked across Jin Zilong’s face like a whip. "Arrogant? You haven’t seen real arrogance yet! Keep talking, and I’ll beat you too, you old fool."
"You—" A fierce glint flashed in Li Xianqun’s eyes. His other hand gripped the sword hilt, ready to draw his blade at any moment.
Just then, Luo Qingli and Zhang Yaqing appeared behind Chen Xiao.
"Miss Lu," Luo Qingli said, her voice sharp. "I advise you to tell your man to stand down. We have edited recordings of these men causing trouble at our businesses. If we release them online with a little push... what will happen to the Lu Family’s reputation?
"The great Lu Family, using such pathetic tricks to deal with its rivals? People would laugh their heads off. Or perhaps this wasn’t just Jin Zilong’s idea. Were you involved too?"
Lu Rugao’s face burned with humiliation. She gritted her teeth. "This has nothing to do with me."
"I am Lu Rugao. I can swallow hundreds of millions of your assets on the stock market in a minute. I already have the upper hand, so why would I resort to such pathetic, underhanded schemes?!"
With that, she shot a look at Li Xianqun, signaling him not to act. "Jin Zilong, this is your mess. You clean it up. I can’t afford this embarrassment."
