Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 443 Others Are Beyond My Control
Chapter 443: Chapter 443 Others Are Beyond My Control
At dusk.
In the center of Qingyang Town, within a spacious quadrangle, numerous figures were bustling about.
The grand courtyard gate, styled after the majestic ancient gates, had a plaque hanging on it. However, it didn’t bear the words "Zhang Residence" or "Zhang Family Estate," but instead, "Town Mayor’s House" in bold characters.
Because Chen Fan and Su Qingyan were grand figures who held special importance for Sun Xiong, Zhang Baifa naturally couldn’t afford to neglect the proper manners, so he prepared extensively for tonight’s banquet.
At this moment, he was directing the servants to decorate the estate, aiming to ensure that Chen Fan and Su Qingyan would enjoy a delightful view upon their arrival.
After busying himself for half the day, he stopped a servant and asked, "Have you seen Jiashuai? How come I haven’t seen him around at all today?"
The servant replied, "I think I saw him heading towards the inner courtyard just now."
Zhang Baifa nodded and made his way to the inner courtyard.
As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he saw Zhang Jiashuai standing in front of a large crowd, giving a rousing speech with his face bruised and swollen.
"Brothers, no one in Qingyang Town has ever dared to treat me, Zhang Jiashuai, like this. It’s one thing if he didn’t know I’m the Town Mayor’s son, but even after learning about my identity, he still didn’t regard me at all. This isn’t just slapping my face, it’s slapping my father’s!"
"To teach that bastard who really calls the shots in this town, we must teach him a lesson. Grab your weapons, and let’s settle the score with him right now!"
A group of men immediately raised the knives, spears, clubs, and sticks in their hands, ready to avenge Zhang Jiashuai with imposing fervor.
Ding Shuo shouted by the side, "Beat the crap out of that son of a b*tch, let’s go!"
Seeing this, Zhang Baifa instantly frowned, walked over to Zhang Jiashuai, and scolded, "You little rascal, what are you planning on doing now!"
Zhang Jiashuai said indignantly, "Dad, some bastard hit me today. Look at my face, see how it’s been smacked. I’m going to find him and take revenge!"
Zhang Baifa frowned and said, "Have you forgotten that we have important guests coming over tonight? Can’t you deal with your troubles tomorrow?"
Zhang Jiashuai replied, "Dad, don’t worry, with so many brothers here, it will only take a moment to handle that guy. We absolutely won’t delay the banquet later."
By the side, Ding Shuo chimed in, "Yeah, uncle, you didn’t see how miserably the cousin was beaten today. If we don’t settle this grudge, the cousin might suffer a cerebral hemorrhage at his young age."
Zhang Baifa glared at Ding Shuo and snapped, "Even you’re adding to the chaos!"
He coldly looked towards Zhang Jiashuai and declared, "No matter how aggrieved you are, you will postpone this matter for me. The guests tonight are the utmost priority. If they are well entertained, I will have a firmer standing when speaking with President Sun in the future. If you disrupt tonight’s banquet, I won’t let you off!"
At that moment, a servant approached and asked Zhang Baifa how to arrange the flower baskets outside.
Zhang Baifa glared at Zhang Jiashuai and Ding Shuo, then turned and left to attend to the decoration matters.
Ding Shuo looked at Zhang Jiashuai and asked, "Cousin, uncle has spoken. Are we still going to find that guy for revenge?"
Zhang Jiashuai was seething, his fists clenched tight, and through gritted teeth, he said, "Go, why not! We have many people here, it won’t take much time to deal with that guy. We’ll make it quick and return before the banquet."
Having said this, he ran to the front courtyard gate, saw that Zhang Baifa wasn’t paying attention to this area, and quickly led the group out.
They left in a mighty procession, full of aggressive grandeur, seemingly determined to conquer the world.
"Later, I must return those slaps I received, not missing a single one!"
Not long after the group left the estate, they saw four individuals approaching them slowly.
It was Chen Fan and his companions!
Ding Shuo pointed at Chen Fan and shouted, "Cousin, look quickly, it’s that guy!"
Zhang Jiashuai narrowed his eyes, "Damn the luck, they’ve actually come here. But it saves us the trouble of finding them. Brothers, when the time comes, show them our ferocity, and let’s scare the piss out of this kid!"
Chen Fan and his group had also noticed Zhang Jiashuai and his men.
Jiang Qing said with some worry, "It’s Zhang Jiashuai and his group, and he’s brought a lot of men!"
Chen Fan laughed and said, "Don’t worry, no matter how many people he brings, it’s all in vain."
Soon, Zhang Jiashuai and his men reached Chen Fan and his companions.
"Damn it, you dared to hit me today and even have the guts to head in the direction of my home. You must really have a death wish!" Zhang Jiashuai cursed.
Chen Fan glanced at him and asked, "What, was I too gentle when I beat you today that you’re asking for more?"
Zhang Jiashuai snorted coldly, "Don’t f*cking act tough here. You might be quite skilled, but with so many of us, taking you down is just a matter of minutes. If you know what’s good for you, get on your knees and apologize now, and let me slap you a few dozen times. Like this..."
He was about to say that he would forgive Chen Fan, but when he saw Su Qingyan and An Lan next to Chen Fan, he changed his tune, "And to make them serve me well for one night, then this matter will be considered over!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan snorted coldly, took a quick step toward Zhang Jiashuai, and grabbed his collar, "What did you just say?"
Zhang Jiashuai was scared out of his wits but still mustered the courage to say, "I said, let them serve me well for one night, you... if you dare touch me, my brothers behind me will definitely not let you go!"
Chen Fan pointed at Su Qingyan, "I don’t care who else you want to sleep with, but if you dare think about her, you’d better be prepared for a beating!"
Finished speaking, he began to beat Zhang Jiashuai mercilessly.
Su Qingyan, hearing what Chen Fan had said, couldn’t help but snicker to herself, glancing at An Lan next to her.
An Lan bit her teeth tightly, wishing she could bite Chen Fan.
"You bastard, you were the first to sleep with me, do you not care if someone else sleeps with me!" An Lan screamed inside her heart.
Ding Shuo saw his cousin getting beaten again and hurriedly called out to his brothers: "What are you waiting for, get in there, my cousin is being beaten up, hurry up!"
The people immediately took up their weapons and charged towards Chen Fan.
Chen Fan glanced at them, his figure flickered, turning into afterimages, leaping amongst the crowd.
In the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with people groaning in agony.
Ding Shuo stared dumbfounded at the scene, frozen in place.
Chen Fan turned his head and looked at him.
He immediately fell to the ground holding his head, crying out, "Ouch, it hurts to death..."
Chen Fan curled his lip, paying no attention to the drama queen, and returned to Zhang Jiashuai’s side, "I’ll give you a chance to rephrase your words."
Zhang Jiashuai hadn’t expected Chen Fan to be so fearsome; his many brothers were taken down in the blink of an eye.
He looked at Chen Fan fearfully, still unyieldingly saying, "My... my father is the town mayor..."
Without hesitation, Chen Fan punched him right in the face.
Ding Shuo, seizing the opportunity while Chen Fan was busy beating Zhang Jiashuai, quickly got up from the ground and ran towards the Town Mayor’s House.
"Cousin, hang in there, I’m going to get our uncle right now!"
Chen Fan didn’t stop him; after all, it was his intention to let Zhang Baifa personally handle the matter.
Ding Shuo, looking disheveled, made it to the estate and found Zhang Baifa, exclaiming, "Uncle, you must save my cousin, he is nearly being beaten to death out there!"
Zhang Baifa’s eyes bulged, "What did you say!"
Ding Shuo said, "It’s the person who fought my cousin today, he specifically came here to beat up my cousin!"
Zhang Baifa’s expression immediately turned incredibly dark, "Damn it, who dares to disregard me like this, coming to my doorstep to beat my son. Where are they now, lead me there quickly!"
Ding Shuo hurriedly led Zhang Baifa outside.
People inside the estate who were busy heard that Zhang Jiashuai was being beaten to death and immediately stopped their work, following Zhang Baifa and Ding Shuo out to see the commotion.
Soon, Ding Shuo was leading Zhang Baifa to where Chen Fan and the others were.
By that time, Zhang Jiashuai was already sitting on the ground, breaking down into tears, crying pitifully with tears, snot, and blood all mixing together.
Seeing his cousin beaten to such a state, Ding Shuo shouted indignantly, "You bastard, my cousin wasn’t too bright to begin with, you’ve almost beaten him dumb now. My uncle is here, and he certainly won’t spare you today!"
Zhang Jiashuai turned his head and looked at his cousin, thinking to himself that you’re the one who’s not too bright, then seeing Zhang Baifa arriving, he suddenly felt emboldened and yelled at Chen Fan, "You’re finished, my dad is here, you’ve beaten me so badly, he will surely kill you!"
Afterward, he crawled towards Zhang Baifa, crying and wailing, "Dad, you must defend me, look what this guy did to me..."
If only I cry more miserably, once my dad sees this, he’ll definitely feel heartbroken, and in his rage, call over the town’s security squad, then this guy is done for today. Zhang Jiashuai calculated secretly in his heart.
Zhang Baifa indeed looked furious; he had always cherished Zhang Jiashuai like a treasure since he was young, never allowing his son to suffer any grievances, and it was precisely because of this that Zhang Jiashuai had developed his current character.
He was eager to see who dared to bully his son so much. If he didn’t get a satisfactory explanation today, he was ready to call over the security team and let this arrogant guy know who really runs Qingyang Town!
Following the direction pointed out by Ding Shuo and Zhang Jiashuai, as soon as he clearly saw Chen Fan’s face in the distance, his expression faltered, and then his eyes slowly widened, and the whole person became incredulous.
He hurried forward, exclaiming, "Chen... Mr. Chen!"
