I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 556 - 449 Coincidence

Patriarch Wu bellowed at Wu Qi. He didn’t want Xia Liang to misunderstand the great families of Jinling because of his own Wu Family.

Wu Qi wanted to come over immediately, but for some reason, his legs had long since gone soft. After a few steps, he collapsed to the ground.

Xia Liang waved his hand, indicating it was no big deal. He hadn’t really been angry to begin with. But Wu Qi had talked back to him. He had to show the Wu Family some attitude, which was why he had ignored the two Wu Family leaders at first.

"Alright, I have to go. Make way."

Seeing that Xia Liang was about to leave, Patriarch Wu hurriedly waved to the people behind him.

The surrounding Wu Family members instantly parted, clearing a path for Xia Liang. Those outside the 4S dealership did the same, opening up a sizable path.

Xia Liang started the Lykan and slowly drove towards the exit.

Watching the Lykan recede into the distance, the Wu Family Patriarch tugged on Patriarch Wu’s sleeve, unsure of what to do.

Patriarch Wu clenched his teeth, but ultimately, he didn’t go after him.

It was already a blessing that Xia Liang wasn’t angry with them. How could they shamelessly go up and ask for another divination?

Having driven a short distance away, Xia Liang suddenly stopped, as if he knew what they were thinking.

He extended his hand out of the driver’s window and beckoned.

The two Wu Family leaders hurried forward.

From the driver’s seat, Xia Liang slowly began to speak.

"Don’t worry too much. Your Wu Family hasn’t done anything to feel guilty about, so you needn’t fear ghosts knocking on your door. Continue to run your family business well, don’t make any foolish moves, and you’ll naturally be fine."

"Thank you, Master, for your guidance!"

The two said in unison, feeling as if a huge weight had been lifted from their shoulders.

These past two days, the Wu Family had run into trouble. They were in a legal dispute with a large conglomerate that had falsely accused them of many things. Furthermore, the conglomerate had already set a trap for them. If they lost, the Wu Family’s reputation would suffer greatly. They had been having sleepless nights over the matter.

But hearing Xia Liang’s words, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Liang’s next statement, however, made them tense up again.

"However..."

"However what?" they both asked in unison.

"Your family business will indeed thrive in your hands," Xia Liang said, looking at the Wu Family Patriarch. "But be careful not to let the efforts of several generations be ruined by a reckless descendant."

Glancing at Wu Qi in the distance, Xia Liang stepped on the gas and sped away in a cloud of dust.

Before he’d transmigrated, he had seen plenty of TV shows and novels. Countless families had been destroyed by an irresponsible, rich second-generation heir. Given Wu Qi’s temperament, it was only a matter of time before he provoked someone he couldn’t handle. And that person definitely wouldn’t let him off as easily as he did. So, if the Wu Family wanted to maintain their standing in Jinling, that boy Wu Qi’s temper had to change.

After Xia Liang left, the two Wu Family leaders slowly turned their heads to look coldly at Wu Qi.

"Dad, Grandpa... d-don’t look at me like that... I’m scared!"

While Xia Liang was driving his Lykan around Jinling looking for a place to stay, the events from the 4S dealership that afternoon spread like wildfire.

Patriarch Wu and the Wu Family Patriarch simultaneously bowing their heads and apologizing to a young man was absolutely major news in Jinling. As a result, many other powerful families began investigating who the young man at the 4S dealership was and why the Wu Family was so afraid of him.

Once they investigated the events that had occurred in Shenhai City, they finally understood: a formidable Diviner had arrived in Jinling.

That same night, in certain villa communities in Jinling, blood-curdling screams could be heard, as if someone were slaughtering a pig. The rich second-generation kids who had been with Wu Qi were all brutally beaten without exception after returning home. Their families might not have known who Xia Liang was, but they understood that if even the Wu Family was that afraid of the young man, then they had even more reason to be.

...

「In a mountain villa in the Jinling Suburb.」

Several men who looked like monks and Taoist priests were sitting around a round table. They were all at least in their forties, and it was rare for them to gather together. If Patriarch Wu were here, he would have recognized them instantly. These were Jinling’s most famous physiognomists. They were often seen at events like the groundbreaking for a new construction project or the birthday celebration of a family head.

But now, their expressions were grim.

"This kid has only been in Jinling for a day, and his reputation is already about to surpass ours. He’s far too arrogant."

"If he wants to set up shop in Jinling and steal business from other Diviners, he should at least pay us a visit first. That’s proper etiquette. But this kid doesn’t give us any respect at all."

"And that Patriarch Wu! He heard a few rumors from Shenhai and immediately assumed this kid’s abilities are superior to ours. I say the kid just got lucky."

Several voices, all expressing their dissatisfaction with Xia Liang, echoed throughout the villa.

"That’s right. When Old Qin went to Shenhai, he ran into this kid too. They both prayed for rain, and Old Qin was utterly defeated. The very next day, he cut off all contact with us. Did he really have to be that scared? He’s a disgrace to all of us!"

"I say we need to teach this kid a lesson."
