Chapter 225 Can’t We Discuss It?
Xiao Yifei cocked his head, indifferently looking at Chong Pi as he spoke.
Upon hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, a glint flashed in Chong Pi’s eyes. He looked at Xiao Yifei and said with a smile, "How dare I threaten you? After all, I’m at a disadvantage here. I was merely weighing the pros and cons for you, brother. After all, I still have some say in the University Town. Even if you teach me a lesson, I still have some brothers here! Moreover, if things turn ugly today, I won’t say much, but some of the brothers I know, although not as imposing as your group, do have their minions. It’s easy to dodge a spear in the light, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. They might take some actions."
Chong Pi paused for a moment, aware that the current situation was very unfavorable for him. However, his cunning and deceitful nature always led him to consider a lot. He knew he shouldn’t overstate things. Thus, Chong Pi continued, "Of course, if I am brought down today, I’ll accept it. You’ve come with so many people, which couldn’t have been easy. I’ll offer 500,000 yuan to cover your travel expenses. Let’s call it even today, how about that?"
"Five hundred thousand?"
Xiao Yifei’s lips curved emotionlessly as he coldly stared at Chong Pi. "Let’s not talk about money first. Just your earlier words—that’s a threat. And I, personally, hate being threatened the most. Although I’m also a small fry, when I do things, what I fear most is leaving lingering troubles."
He was indeed speaking the truth. After sparing Fu Kaiyuan out of mercy in the past, Fu Kaiyuan actually investigated his family members. Xiao Yifei’s family was his Achilles’ heel! Fortunately, he discovered it in time; otherwise, the consequences could have led to lifelong regret for Xiao Yifei. Hence, he had decided that if he did not engage in enmities on regular days, should he face an enemy, he must eradicate them thoroughly!
"Brother, what do you mean? Are we really breaking off negotiations today? I’ll raise the compensation for your brothers’ travel hardships to one million! And from now on, whenever I see you in University Town, I, Chong Pi, will walk away. Isn’t this condition acceptable?"
As Chong Pi looked into Xiao Yifei’s eyes, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he started speaking somewhat frantically.
