Chapter 190 Utter Panic
Chapter 190 Utter Panic
On what grounds? On what grounds is this?
Young Master Dongfang had never felt so wronged, and he was extremely distressed.
"Father, why are you beating me without even asking what happened? Please give me a reason, I don't know what I did wrong!" Young Master Dongfang shouted.
The head of the Dongfang family looked even more gloomy.
"How could I have given birth to such a stupid idiot like you!" he shouted angrily.
Young Master Dongfang felt even more aggrieved, and looked like he was about to cry.
What kind of father is this?
When their own son is bullied, they blame their own son instead.
“Uncle Dongfang, Young Master Dongfang did nothing wrong. We are the ones who have been humiliated…” Young Master Lu couldn’t bear to watch any longer and couldn’t help but say.
"Shut up!" The head of the Lu family suddenly flew into a rage and slapped the young master of the Lu family hard across the face.
"Snapped!"
Another unusually loud slap rang out.
Young Master Lu was stunned by the slap he received.
The onlookers were even more bewildered.
What kind of show is this?
"Are you kidding me? We're the victims!" the hot-tempered young master shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Exactly, what kind of logic is it to blame the victim?" the young men said indignantly.
"Shut up!"
"You bastard!"
In an instant, the heads of the major families seemed to be ignited, and they all shouted out loud.
What followed was a series of slaps across the face.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
……
In an instant, loud and chaotic slapping echoed throughout the bar, creating a symphony.
Every young master received a powerful slap from his father, leaving them completely stunned.
The onlookers stared in disbelief, their expressions becoming blank.
Xu Lingling covered her mouth in shock.
This is simply a spectacle...
This was completely different from what everyone had imagined; no one had anticipated such an outcome.
Shouldn't we be demanding an explanation and reprimanding them?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The rich kids couldn't accept it at all.
After all that, all they got was a slap in the face?
"I refuse to accept this!" Young Master Dongfang roared angrily.
He was so frustrated, he was about to explode.
"You have no choice but to submit!" the head of the Dongfang family roared. "It's all because the family has spoiled you. Do you think no one in the province can control you?"
"Did I send you to Jiang City to meet someone so you could cause trouble?"
Young Master Dongfang stubbornly refused to listen to anything.
"Of all people to mess with, why did you have to provoke this one? Is your brain full of water?"
When the head of the Dongfang family uttered his last words, the room immediately fell silent.
A deathly silence...
Even a normal person can understand the implied meaning in this sentence.
In an instant, all eyes were drawn to the bar, staring incredulously at the person.
Who exactly is he?
To be able to make even the head of the Dongfang family wary... what kind of person must this be?
Especially the young masters, their eyes widened in astonishment.
That person...
Could it have some amazing origin?
They were somewhat incredulous and unwilling to believe it.
"Father...he...he is..." Young Master Dongfang asked weakly, somewhat frightened.
"This is the person I asked you to come to Jiang City to pay your respects to!" the head of the Dongfang family roared.
"boom!"
Young Master Dongfang and his friends were struck dumb, their minds went blank, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
At that moment, everyone in the bar was shocked, and many were speechless with astonishment.
Some people were so shocked that their jaws seemed to drop.
"What...he is..." Young Master Dongfang looked like he had lost his mind, and he even started to stutter.
The other young masters also stared wide-eyed, their expressions filled with disbelief.
This news is absolutely terrifying.
They got into a huge fight with Xiao Chen at the bar, almost to the point of a life-or-death struggle...
However, the head of the Dongfang family now says that this is a super important person they need to pay their respects to.
Such a young person?
What exactly is his identity?
In an instant, the young masters turned pale, their expressions filled with panic, and their imposing manner all weakened.
"A powerful family from the province is coming to pay their respects to Xiao Chen?" Xu Lingling was dumbfounded and speechless.
What is this concept?
No one in the entire Jiang City has such influence; even the No. 1 family is far inferior.
At this moment, Xu Lingling, who was extremely shocked, finally understood why he was so prestigious in the black market.
"Isn't he just a young master from the Xiao family?" The young master of the Bai family felt like his brain couldn't keep up.
In fact, he had known Xiao Chen's identity for a long time, and he knew that Xiao Chen was the one who opposed their young master Xiao Yichen, which is why he instigated the scions of the major families in the province to have a conflict with him.
But now, he was stunned.
How could a young master of the Xiao family have such ability?
Xiao Yichen is the young master of the Heavenly King Palace, but it's probably not so easy for him to get the major families in the province to treat him with respect.
Young Master Bai was heavy-hearted, his eyes darting around as he desperately tried to think of a solution.
"Go quietly and tell my father and young master what happened here," he whispered to one of his men.
"Clear the area," Xiao Chen said calmly as he stood up.
The head of the Dongfang family nodded and waved his hand, and then some people came out to drive away the crowd.
The crowd was still eager to see what happened next, but faced with the tough bodyguards, they dared not resist and could only leave the bar grumbling.
Undoubtedly, news of what happened here today will soon spread throughout Jiang City, sparking much speculation.
"Alright, this farce should come to an end," Xiao Chen said indifferently.
The young masters of the powerful families in the province felt a chill run down their spines.
Is this a move to punish them?
"Mr. Xiao, please forgive my son's offense with your magnanimity..." The head of the Dongfang family bowed to Xiao Chen and humbly pleaded.
"Please have mercy, Mr. Xiao! We are willing to bear the blame for our son!" The other family heads also bowed.
This is a spectacle.
Every family head here is someone of great importance, usually high and mighty, untouchable by ordinary people, and even the most powerful and wealthy in Jiang City treat them with utmost respect.
But now they are extremely humble.
Those young masters and noblemen were all filled with anxiety and fear.
Even their father acted this way in front of Xiao Chen, which was enough to show how terrifying his background was.
Xiao Chen did not respond to them, but looked at Xu Lingling instead.
"If you hear what happens next, you'll lose your life," he said calmly.
Xu Lingling's expression changed drastically.
"Then... I'll go first..." she said softly.
To be honest, she was terrified tonight.
She had endured immense pressure standing beside Xiao Chen until this moment, her journey filled with twists and turns, from fear and anxiety to shock and numbness...
She also knew that Xiao Chen's realm was too far beyond her reach, and she was not qualified to touch it; she could only explore it from the bottom of her heart.
"See Miss Xu off," Xiao Chen said.
"Yes, take Miss Xu home in my car," the head of the Dongfang family ordered.
Xu Lingling's body trembled.
She understood that just from the words "Miss Xu," and the fact that she was being escorted in the car of the head of a top family in the province, her fate would change.
She gave Xiao Chen a grateful look.
"Be a good person from now on," Xiao Chen said only one sentence.
Xu Lingling nodded emphatically and followed the driver out of the bar, feeling more cheerful than ever before.
This time, she finally made the right bet...
