Chapter 992 - 986: Did the Liu Family Back Down?
Lu Tianxing was startled by Mandala’s words and quickly said, "Mandala, don’t do anything reckless. I still want to live a few more days! Do you think the Liu Family is like the Wang Family? The Wang Family has been able to hold a place among the families in Beijing entirely because they have the support of the Heavenly God behind them. Without the Heavenly God, the Wang Family would be vulnerable."
"But the Liu Family is an old established family in Beijing, they climbed to the top relying on their own heritage. Moreover, the Wang Family was eliminated because they went too far, and I’m not from Beijing, I’m here alone without any foundation. Although the families in Beijing fear me, they won’t consider me an equal. If we eliminate the Liu Family as well, we will become the target of all in Beijing. We might not even be able to leave Beijing alive."
"I know, it’s really troublesome, not as straightforward as the Middle East. If you don’t like someone, you just eliminate them."
Mandala grumbled discontentedly but did not refute Lu Tianxing’s words. Her previous comment was just talk; she wasn’t stupid. Eliminating the Wang Family might still be doable, but removing the Liu Family would definitely make them enemies of the Yanhuang Group.
After Lu Tianxing and Mandala went downstairs, they immediately saw a middle-aged man in a suit sitting on a sofa in the living room. Rose and Lin Yafei were sitting beside him, watching the middle-aged man thoughtfully, their eyes glimmering with a penetrating light, thinking about some unknown matters.
When the middle-aged man saw Lu Tianxing coming down from upstairs, he was startled and stood up from the sofa as if there were a spring in his seat. He looked at Lu Tianxing with some reverence and said, "Mr. Lu, y-you’re welcome."
The middle-aged man’s voice trembled slightly, with a trace of panic on his face, and a desire to weep surged in his heart.
He was from the Liu Family, specifically sent by Liu Yaoyang to apologize to Lu Tianxing. If possible, he would have never come; now, the whole of Beijing was abuzz about how Lu Tianxing had obliterated the entire Wang Family. In the eyes of the families in Beijing, Lu Tianxing was now a complete Killing God. If Lu Tianxing killed him, it would just be bad luck for him; the Liu Family would certainly not stand up for him.
But there was nothing he could do, because he drew the lot for this. No choice.
"You are from the Liu Family?" Lu Tianxing looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and asked.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, my name is Liu Peng. I was sent by our Old Master."
The middle-aged man, after a brief moment of panic, quickly calmed down. He picked up a briefcase from beside him and took out a few sheets of paper: "Mr. Lu, our Old Master has been in closed-door meditation for a while, and only came out last night. After learning that someone from our Liu Family had offended Mr. Lu Tianxing, he specifically sent me today to apologize to you, Mr. Lu. Also, Mr. Lu, these are our Liu Family’s compensations: this is the transfer contract for Villa No. 2 at Purple Bamboo Villa, you just need to sign it. Additionally, there’s an anonymous bank card with a deposit of fifty million, which our Old Master entrusted me to hand over to you, Mr. Lu, please accept it."
Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Lu Tianxing sneered silently to himself, not truly believing them. Constant meditation, just released last night? If he truly believed that, he would be a fool. The Liu Family was only willing to bow down because he had wiped out the Wang Family the previous night unscathed; otherwise, expecting a family to bow was simply dreaming.
