The Master and His Wealthy Fiancée

The wrinkles on Zhuang Zhongjia's face trembled, a clear sign he was seething with rage.

He snatched up his phone and called Li Qinghe.

The moment the call connected, he started screaming, "Old Ghost Li, are you trying to disrespect me? What's the meaning of sending someone to my nephew's factory to cause trouble over a measly twenty million?"

Li Qinghe was stunned at first. 'Why would that ungrateful Zhuang Zhongjia be calling me?' But after hearing him, he was dumbfounded. Once he pieced together what was happening, he understood.

Not only was that bastard's nephew refusing to pay his debt, but the bastard himself had the audacity to call and curse him out.

Li Qinghe had personally overseen this deal before he fell ill. At the time, out of respect for Zhuang Zhongjia, he hadn't even collected a deposit. But as soon as the factory building was completed, Li Qinghe got sick, and the payment had been delayed ever since. If it weren't for Zhuang Zhongjia's call, Li Qinghe would have forgotten all about it.

Before Li Qinghe could even speak, Zhuang Zhongjia continued in an incredibly arrogant tone, "I'm telling you, Old Ghost Li, right now, immediately, this instant, you get rid of that little bastard named Chen Dong! Stop causing trouble for my nephew!"

Hearing this, Li Qinghe exploded with rage. "You ungrateful dog! Your nephew owes me for the construction costs and you think you're in the right? Let me tell you something! This isn't over until you settle the bill today! And your damn nephew is the little bastard!"

With that, Li Qinghe hung up the phone.

He then called Chen Dong. "Xiaodong," he said, "I want you to raise hell. The man behind this Director Zhuang is Zhuang Zhongjia. You need to help me vent this frustration."

Chen Dong naturally agreed to such a request.

Inside the director's office, Director Zhuang also received a call from Zhuang Zhongjia, who likewise told him to take care of Chen Dong.

After hanging up, Director Zhuang used his desk phone to make an internal call. "You pack of shit-eating security guards, get to the director's office, now!"

Chen Dong let out a cold laugh when he heard this.

A moment later, a group of uniformed security guards crowded into the room.

Director Zhuang said viciously, "Beat this kid up. I'll give a bonus to whoever cripples him."

Desperate to keep their jobs, the group of security guards started to rush forward.

Chen Dong shouted, "Hold on! You can all quit right now. On behalf of the Li Group, I'm hiring. Anyone who's interested, come stand on my right."

Without a moment's hesitation, the entire group of security guards moved to stand on Chen Dong's right. The Li Group's pay was a cut above anywhere else. More importantly, after the recent news about a massive compensation payout, the Li Group's reputation had skyrocketed, and all these struggling workers dreamed of joining them.

Besides, the security guards had long since grown tired of this moronic director. If it wasn't for needing to make a living, they would have quit long ago.

Director Zhuang was dumbfounded. He never expected his subordinates to betray him so quickly.

But even without any muscle, he wasn't the least bit afraid of Chen Dong, because his uncle, Zhuang Zhongjia, was on his way.

Chen Dong spoke again. "Director Zhuang, the twenty million for the factory construction!"

Seeing that Chen Dong now had numbers on his side, Director Zhuang could only try to stall. "I'll pay it, just wait a little longer!"

Chen Dong's gaze hardened. "I suggest you give me the money now," he said coldly. "Otherwise, you'll regret it."

Director Zhuang sneered internally. 'I'd be the one regretting it if I paid. That's twenty million!'

Just then, the sound of chaotic footsteps approached.

An old man in the lead shouted, "Pay for what? I'd like to see you make me regret anything!"

As this new group arrived, the security guards behind Chen Dong panicked. They had just switched sides, and now this old man had brought so many bodyguards—all of them powerfully built with vicious glares. They certainly wouldn't be let off easy. If a fight broke out, they'd be no match at all.

The old man hadn't yet paid any attention to the security guards. Instead, he stared at Chen Dong and continued arrogantly, "How dare Old Ghost Li disrespect me? I'll make sure you don't leave here today. Seize him! Make Old Ghost Li come and beg me himself!"

Chen Dong looked at the old man and asked softly, "You must be Zhuang Zhongjia."

The old man's expression was haughty. "I am! You dare come alone to collect a debt? I see you're just as stupid as that Old Ghost Li!"

Chen Dong said coldly, "You're the one I was waiting for."

Before Zhuang Zhongjia's burly bodyguards could make a move, Chen Dong stepped forward, grabbed Zhuang Zhongjia by the hair, and without the slightest pause, slapped him hard across the face.

Zhuang Zhongjia instantly spat out a mouthful of blood and a few teeth.

Chen Dong's speed was simply too fast. The burly bodyguards only realized what was happening after Zhuang Zhongjia had been hit, and they scrambled forward to rescue him.

These bodyguards were no match for Chen Dong. But what he didn't expect was that before he could even act, the security guards behind him let out battle cries and charged the bodyguards. The two groups became entangled in a brawl.

The security guards were physically weaker and were quickly beaten down, but not a single one of the bodyguards managed to get within three steps of Chen Dong.

The relatively spacious director's office was now packed with people.

Chen Dong grabbed the unresisting Zhuang Zhongjia and said, "Grandmaster Li told me to properly vent his anger for him!" With that, he punched Zhuang Zhongjia in the face. This time, Zhuang Zhongjia spat out all his remaining teeth, and a good chunk of his hair was torn from his scalp.

His once perfectly maintained hair and teeth were now completely gone.

In the end, he was just an old man, not a Martial Artist. Chen Dong didn't strike him again and simply tossed him aside.

He turned to Director Zhuang and asked coldly, "How long until I get the construction payment?"
