Chapter 106 Who can stop it?
"Kid, what did you say?"
"You've come to my Tong family to annul the engagement?"
The Tong family members all looked grim, as if they wanted to devour Xiao Chen.
They initially thought Xiao Chen was using the engagement to curry favor with the Tong family, but they never expected that he had come to annul the engagement.
"Isn't this exactly what you wanted? You wanted to break your promise anyway," Xiao Chen said expressionlessly.
"Nonsense! How could my Tong family do such a thing!" Tong Qingyun retorted with a stern face.
"Who gave you the courage to come to the Tong family to annul the engagement?" Tong Hui shouted as he got up.
"This brat dares to insult my Tong family! Elders, we cannot let him get away with this!" he incited.
Tong Qingyun raised his hand to stop the commotion.
"Your name is Xiao Chen, right?" he asked Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen simply ignored him.
The Tong family was furious and wanted to reprimand them, but Tong Qingyun stopped them.
"My father was saved by your teacher, and to repay the kindness, he casually made a marriage promise. Now it seems that the promise was quite inappropriate..."
"How about this, since we've reached an agreement to amicably dissolve the engagement, the Tong family will give you a sum of money as compensation."
Xiao Chen's expression turned sarcastic upon hearing this.
The Tong family's idea is quite wishful thinking.
Amicable annulment of the engagement... but where is the amicability?
"Write him a check for five million," Tong Qingyun instructed.
"What? Five million? Is he worth it? I think five hundred thousand is enough!" Tong Hui exclaimed immediately.
The Tong family members also had some complaints, but they were all suppressed by a single look from Tong Qingyun.
The check was written and handed to Xiao Chen by a security guard.
"This five million is both compensation for you and a way for my Tong family to repay the kindness we owed you back then. From now on, we are even," Tong Qingyun said with a smile.
"As for the matter of you injuring Tong Hui, I will not hold it against you for the sake of your teacher."
Tong Qingyun's magnanimous and kind demeanor amused Xiao Chen.
He picked up the check but didn't even look at it before it shattered into pieces in his hand.
The Tong family members' expressions hardened.
"If it weren't for my teacher, would your Tong family be where you are today?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"You think you can settle things for five million? How dare your Tong family say that!"
Then, Xiao Chen held up the marriage contract to show them.
"I'm definitely breaking off this engagement! And I'll do it openly and in a grand manner, so just you wait and see."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Originally, he only wanted to annul the engagement; he couldn't be bothered with the Tong family or anything like that.
However, he didn't expect the Tong family to be so ungrateful and shameless, so he didn't need to give them any face.
"presumptuous!"
"What do you think the Tong family is? Someone you can come and go as you please?"
The Tong family was furious.
Tong Qingyun also dropped his disguise and waved his hand with a cold expression.
All of Tong's bodyguards rushed towards Xiao Chen.
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences." Tong Qingyun was very unhappy.
"Break his legs! Let's see how he walks!" Tong Hui shouted.
As a group of bodyguards rushed over, Xiao Chen, with a cold expression, turned around and kicked out.
The kick hit one person, who flew through the air and crashed into others behind him, causing a chain reaction that knocked down more than ten people in one go.
The sound of bones cracking echoed, and none of them could get up; the seriously injured had already fainted.
This scene stunned everyone present.
The power of that kick...
Is he still human?
That one move alone stunned the group of people who rushed over.
"That's all the Tong family is capable of, not worth mentioning," Xiao Chen said sarcastically.
The Tong family members' faces turned as black as charcoal.
“Capture him, and the patriarch will reward you handsomely!” Tong Qingyun said.
Enticed by the generous reward, the rest of the group charged at Xiao Chen again, hoping to overwhelm him with sheer numbers.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and went against the grain, walking towards the Tong family's courtyard.
The bodyguards rushed over, but they couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes before they were sent flying.
He seemed to be getting closer and closer to the Tong family as if there were no obstacles in his way.
"What? How is that possible?"
The Tong family members stared wide-eyed.
With so many people, couldn't anyone stop him even for a second?
Just who is this kid?
How could an apprentice of a traveling doctor have such skills?
Before long, Xiao Chen was standing in front of Tong Qingyun, with a bunch of people lying on the ground behind him.
"I can come and go as I please in this Tong family's territory. Can you stop me?" Xiao Chen asked calmly.
The Tong family members were furious.
"You bastard! You..." A member of the Tong family next to him was so angry that he pointed at Xiao Chen and was about to curse him.
"Snapped!"
The Tong family only heard a crisp sound, and then the person flew backward, spitting blood from his mouth.
Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped and sent flying. He fell to the ground and passed out without being able to catch his breath.
"You..." The other members of the Tong family were shocked and furious, but when Xiao Chen glanced at them coldly, they fell silent, fearing that they would suffer the same fate as the man on the ground.
"Patriarch!" The Tong family members could only look at their leader with grief and indignation.
Tong Qingyun squinted, his expression grim.
“Young man, do you know what the consequences of your actions will be?” he asked coldly.
"I think you should first consider what the consequences will be for the Tong family," Xiao Chen said with a contemptuous smile.
The Tong family rose to prominence because of his teacher, but they were ungrateful.
There's not much to say; let's just let them return to their original state.
"When I have some free time in a few days, I'll hold a press conference to cancel the engagement with the Tong family," Xiao Chen said.
"No! You can't do that!" The Tong family panicked.
If they were to do that, not only would the Tong family lose face, but they would also be unable to form marriage alliances with other families.
They lost the opportunity to marry into a wealthy family.
Xiao Chen smiled noncommittally and turned to walk out.
This time, no one dared to stop him.
The Tong family members stood there, their expressions shifting.
Since their rise to power, when have they ever suffered such a humiliating disgrace?
"This Xiao Chen is incredibly audacious! Let him disappear from Jiang City!" a man said coldly.
"Leave this to me, I'll make sure it's handled perfectly!" Tong Hui volunteered for credit.
He harbored deep hatred for Xiao Chen.
Tong Qingyun remained silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"Give those two families a heads-up, say that some young upstart is pursuing my daughter and is on the verge of success," he said casually.
The Tong family members' eyes immediately lit up.
This is a case of using someone else to do the dirty work...
The head of the family truly lives up to his title.
