Chapter 613: This Misunderstanding is Beautiful
Li Chenggui and the other two walked out of the villa area, standing by the road, unable to hide their anger any longer.
"Ye Fan is so arrogant, just what is he? Merely a young man, even younger in our eyes, yet he’s so reckless and unaware of his limits. Driving us away is one thing, but daring to belittle Second Master Li is unforgivable, truly unforgivable." Li Chenggui stomped and cursed, trembling with rage.
In Ye Fan’s presence, none of them dared to criticize, but now there was no need to worry so much.
"Exactly, in front of Second Master Li, Ye Fan is just an impudent child, wet behind the ears, and so lawless, it’s infuriating." Huang Jingwei fumed.
"This kid, at the brink of disaster yet still clueless, so foolish." After suppressing his anger, Chen Tiande said, "What’s the point of getting angry with such ignorant people? Let’s patiently wait for three days and then it will be his death day."
"Right, in three days, Second Master Li will surely make him unable to rest in peace." Li Chenggui said venomously.
"Let’s see how arrogant he can be then, Chu Group will perish along with him." Huang Jingwei gritted his teeth.
Li Chenggui and the other two were full of grievances in front of Ye Fan, unable to utter a word of protest. They could only curse quietly now because Ye Fan had already left a shadow in their hearts; even with Second Master Li’s support, they couldn’t completely erase it.
In their hearts, Second Master Li was invincible, Ye Fan’s calmness baffled them. How could they not be angry?
In their minds, Ye Fan should be scared to death, living in constant fear, which would be the greatest respect towards Second Master Li.
Ye Fan’s demeanor was the ultimate disrespect towards Second Master Li, something they could not overlook.
As for Second Master Li possibly failing, they hadn’t considered it at all because Second Master Li could not lose.
"Li Brother, there’s no need for us to consider extra matters, you should focus on how to incorporate Chu Group into the Li Family’s domain." Chen Tiande said, "Chu Group involves significant interests, it must be annexed carefully to obtain maximum benefits at minimum cost."
"Exactly, Li Brother, start early to avoid panic later." Huang Jingwei suggested seriously, "If you need my help, just let me know, I’ll provide any assistance for free."
"The Chen Family will as well." Chen Tiande assured.
With the challenge issued and the battle yet to commence, in Huang Jingwei and Chen Tiande’s eyes, victory was already determined.
The two dared not touch Chu Group’s interests. Previously, the five families had agreed on a distribution plan for Chu Group, but now, after a series of setbacks, allowing the Li Family to swallow Chu Group, achieving the status of richest in the Northwest, was the top priority, daring not to entertain other thoughts.
"Thank you both, after meeting the intermediary, we’ll discuss how to annex Chu Group’s entire industry chain into the Li Family’s assets at minimal cost." Li Chenggui said, impressively.
Upon this thought, the gloom in Li Chenggui and the other two’s hearts dissipated, replaced by pride and arrogance.
Just as they were about to get into the car and leave, Chen Tiande’s eyes lit up, pointing at the car that had just stopped and the person getting off, smiling, "Look, intermediary Zhang Lu herself has come to us, no need for us to find her, she’s eagerly come running to meet us."
"That’s for sure, a mere intermediary, just obeying orders from above to witness and maintain order. We are business tycoons, hardly comparable to an intermediary. Zhang Lu must’ve received instructions on what to do now, anxious to meet us and discuss the specifics of how to help the Li Family annex Chu Group." Li Chenggui said with a smile.
"Our status as business tycoons is clear, we’ve just bid farewell to Second Master Li and issued the challenge, Zhang Lu quickly finds us, evidently keen to meet us. A favor from the three of us means great benefits for her." Huang Jingwei was delighted.
"I’ve heard Zhang Lu’s background is not simple, let’s not look down on others due to our status, but slightly lower our stance, making her astonished and more devoted to helping us." Li Chenggui confidently suggested.
"Given our current predicament, with political circles distancing themselves, it’s wise not to bully such a minor figure as Zhang Lu." Huang Jingwei commented.
With this thought, Li Chenggui and the other two laughed, walking towards Zhang Lu with meaningful expressions, as if approaching a servant girl of their own.
"You must be Miss Zhang Lu, we already know you’re the intermediary, meant to uphold justice for the Li Family and Chu Group, resolving business conflicts through a duel." Li Chenggui said grandly, scrutinizing Zhang Lu, "You’ve done well, eager to seek an audience with me surely to plan how the Li Family can swiftly and effectively annex Chu Group. Rest assured, the Li Family will reward you with great benefits for your loyalty."
"Miss Zhang Lu, having diligently come to please us, we naturally must accept your efforts, rest assured, after this matter, a mere word from us ensures your rise in rank, with success in your official career." Chen Tiande chuckled.
"Don’t be shy, Miss Zhang Lu, we all understand each other well. Being straightforward is a good thing. As long as you cling to us, your benefits in the future will be countless." Huang Jingwei promised.
The three mistakenly thought Zhang Lu rushed over to flatter them.
In fact, Zhang Lu was worried about Ye Fan’s situation.
Zhang Lu naturally recognized Li Chenggui and the others, listening to their words, feeling frustrated enough to want to hit someone.
"Are your brains malfunctioning?" Zhang Lu retorted sharply, "As far as light speed can reach, get out of my sight. Who are you to babble nonsense in front of me? Say anything more and see how I’ll deal with you."
With that, Zhang Lu turned and walked away swiftly, her commanding demeanor looking quite striking.
"What the hell!"
"What’s going on?"
"Zhang Lu, a mere captain of the criminal police, dares to be so arrogant, it’s infuriating."
Li Chenggui and the other two were dumbfounded, nearly furious to death. Given their status and mood, they couldn’t help but swear, showing just how angry they were.
