I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 555 - 448 Do You Know Who I Am_2

Patriarch Wu still held out the bank card, but Xia Liang neither spoke nor took it. He paid the two men no attention at all, remaining silent. These two leaders of the Wu Family didn’t dare lift their heads.

Not far behind them, Wu Qi and the others stared in shock toward the Lykan. Wu Qi’s expression, in particular, had turned deathly pale.

He knew that his grandfather cherished him and seldom even scolded him. But just now, the old man had come over and slapped him directly, without holding back in the slightest.

Even if he was slow on the uptake, he could still understand.

Perhaps this time, I’ve really provoked someone formidable.

He opened his mouth, trembling, but in the end, said nothing. The faces of those around him also began to turn pale. Although their families were also prominent in Jinling, they were nothing compared to the Wu Family. If even Patriarch Wu was apologizing to this person, it meant this individual was someone the Wu Family absolutely could not afford to provoke.

They could already imagine the severe punishment they would receive if news of this incident got back home.

At the same time, other Wu Family members began to pour into the 4S dealership from their luxury cars. Dozens of them swiftly occupied most of the showroom. When they saw Patriarch Wu and the Wu Family Patriarch bowing and apologizing to Xia Liang, they were shocked but quickly grasped the situation. All of them began to bow in the direction of the Lykan, not daring to make a single unnecessary movement.

Then, even more Wu Family vehicles pulled up outside. As these people got out of their cars, they saw the situation through the dealership’s glass walls. From outside, they immediately bowed deeply in the direction of the Lykan.

Nearly a hundred black-clad members of the Wu Family, both inside and outside the dealership, were all bowing in one direction, not daring to make a sound. The scene was quite spectacular. Even those who weren’t from the Wu Family held their breath in such an atmosphere. The dealership manager and several employees felt their legs go weak as they watched, finding it difficult to even speak clearly.

"Ma-manager, my legs are giving out! You have to hold me up!"

"Quiet! My legs are weak too! You’re the one who said that young man’s plain clothes made him look like he couldn’t afford a car. If I hadn’t reminded you not to judge a book by its cover, you’d probably be the one kneeling before him right now!"

Meanwhile, inside the Lykan, Xia Liang finally moved.

Just as a flicker of relief started to kindle in the hearts of Patriarch Wu and the Wu Family Patriarch, they saw Xia Liang take out his phone and start scrolling through a short-video app, as if he hadn’t seen them at all. Patriarch Wu’s heart leaped into his throat and began to pound furiously.

If Xia Liang truly gets angry, the entire Wu Family won’t be enough to bear the consequences.

In Jinling, Xia Liang’s reputation wasn’t particularly widespread. But Patriarch Wu and Old Li of the Shenhai Li Family were old family friends. At Old Li’s reminder, the Wu Family had been paying attention to recent events in Jinhai. The results of their investigation were so astounding they left the entire family reeling. From Old Li, Patriarch Wu had learned just how terrifying a figure Xia Liang was, and he also knew of the connection between the Fang Family and Xia Liang.

The Fang Family’s association with Xia Liang is barely a month old. In that month, they rooted out a corporate spy, Old Master Fang’s cancer vanished as if it had never existed, the Fang Family’s Third Brother recovered from his mental disorder, and a fire at the family’s port warehouse was extinguished in the blink of an eye. Without Xia Liang, the Fang Family would have been in dire straits. Old Master Fang would have passed away, Fang Tian would still be in a psychiatric hospital, and the Fangzun Group would have been driven to the brink of bankruptcy. But because of Xia Liang, all of this was completely reversed.

The one event that solidified the Wu Family’s determination to connect with Xia Liang was the miraculous recovery of Old Li’s leg. The Wu and Li families were close, and they knew Old Li’s leg injury was considered impossible to heal. Yet, it had recovered overnight.

With a single word, he commands life and death. With a single talisman, he controls the weather. He can divine the fate of the heavens and the earth through Fortune Telling.

The Wu Family naturally wanted to get acquainted with such an immortal-like figure. They knew Xia Liang was bound to become famous throughout Jinling sooner or later, and with Old Li as their source, they had a head start on everyone else. But unexpectedly, that advantage had turned into a crisis.

Besides stationing men at the airport, the Wu Family had also distributed Xia Liang’s photo to the city’s taxi companies, telling them to be on the lookout. So when a taxi company called to report that Xia Liang was headed to a certain 4S dealership, Patriarch Wu had a bad feeling. His own grandson had gone to that very same dealership today. Patriarch Wu was well aware of Wu Qi’s temperament. If he provoked Xia Liang, the entire Wu Family could be in danger. He had rushed over as fast as he could, but he was still too late.

As he thought about this, Patriarch Wu suddenly wondered.

Did I bring too little money? Is that why he hasn’t made a move?

At that thought, he immediately turned, strode over to Wu Qi, slapped him across the face again, cursed him for being unfilial, and snatched his bank card. The two cards together were worth more than two hundred Yuan.

"There are two hundred Yuan on these two cards. If Master Xia thinks it’s not enough, I will go and gather more cash immediately. But please, Master Xia, accept these two cards first!"

Xia Liang still didn’t speak.

"Please accept them, Master Xia!" Patriarch Wu’s voice rose in intensity.

At the same time, all the Wu Family members around him echoed in perfect unison.

"Please accept them, Master Xia!"

Their voices seemed powerful enough to shatter the dealership’s glass. Hearing so many people shouting at once, Xia Liang’s brow furrowed slightly.

Finally, he spoke. But upon hearing his words, Patriarch Wu’s face changed drastically.

Xia Liang said coolly, "Are you teaching me what to do?"

His calm words held no hint of emotion, but they caused the two Wu Family leaders’ faces to drain of color. They heard the clear dissatisfaction in his tone and were terrified.

"We wouldn’t dare! How could we possibly presume to tell Master Xia what to do! Whether Master Xia wishes to accept the money or not, we will not say another word!" Patriarch Wu’s forehead was beaded with sweat.

Both he and the Wu Family Patriarch remained bent at the waist. Seeing this, Xia Liang sighed softly.

"Stand up. It isn’t good for an old man to bend over for so long."

"Thank you, Master Xia!"

The two of them slowly straightened up, but the other Wu Family members remained bowed.

"What about this money?" Patriarch Wu asked, looking at the two bank cards in his hand.

"I don’t accept unearned wealth. Take them back."

"Very well. If Master Xia ever needs anything, feel free to come to the Wu Family."

Patriarch Wu opened his mouth, wanting to insist that Xia Liang take the money, but he was too afraid of angering him. In the end, he dared not speak and put the two cards away.

Seeing Xia Liang refuse the Wu Family’s two bank cards, the dealership staff were dumbfounded.

These weren’t some cheap gifts or groceries! Those were bank cards holding two hundred Yuan! The Lykan that Xia Liang is driving only costs one hundred Yuan! All of us put together probably couldn’t earn one hundred Yuan in our entire lifetimes. And this young man, who’s in his early twenties, just rejected it outright. He rejected the Wu Family of Jinling! Countless people would kill for a chance to give the Wu Family a gift, but this man acts like they’re beneath his notice!

It was only then that Xia Liang addressed the matter of Wu Qi. "Tell me, are all you rich second-generation kids in Jinling this arrogant and imperious?"

Seeing Xia Liang’s attention turn to him, Wu Qi’s face became ashen.

To this day, I still don’t know who Xia Liang is. All I know is that I’ll definitely be punished severely when I get back.

"No, no! It’s just our family’s lack of discipline! I will ensure he is strictly taught a lesson when we return home. You damned brat, aren’t you going to crawl over here and apologize to Master Xia right now!"
