Chapter 6715
: See once and fight once
Finally, Liu Yuning knelt heavily on the ground with a "thud," his knees hitting the ground with a dull thud.
He lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Xiao, I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. I beg you to forgive me this time!"
He knew very well that this kneeling was a matter of life and death for himself and his family.
If Xiao Chen doesn't forgive him, he will not only lose everything he has now, but his entire family may also be plunged into an abyss of no return. He cannot afford to hesitate for even a moment.
In the distance, Li Gang leaned against a pillar of the shop, chatting idly with the person next to him.
Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to the scene in front of him, and in an instant, he felt as if his brain had been hit hard by a hammer, and went completely blank.
His legs trembled uncontrollably, as if countless ants were gnawing at his nerves, making every step extremely difficult.
He and Liu Yuning had known each other for many years and knew each other's temperament and personality very well.
Liu Yuning has always been as proud as a peacock with its head held high. In their circle, others always flatter him, and they have never seen him bow his head to anyone.
Even in the smallest disputes, Liu Yuning would always try to prove himself right and would never suffer any loss.
But now, this once arrogant man is so servile in front of Xiao Chen, like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.
A chill ran through Li Gang, a chill that shot up his spine and made him shiver.
A premonition of impending doom hung heavy in his mind like a dark cloud, refusing to dissipate.
His brows furrowed, his eyes filled with fear and unease, and he couldn't help but wonder: what kind of terrifying power is behind Xiao Chen?
If Liu Yuning is so afraid of him, Xiao Chen's identity is probably far beyond what he can imagine.
Could he be the son of some reclusive family?
Or is he the leader of some mysterious organization?
Li Gang became increasingly frightened as he thought about it, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
On the other hand, Xiao Chen ignored Liu Yuning, who was kneeling on the ground, as if Liu Yuning was just a wisp of transparent air.
He simply patted Yun Yuyan, who was still in shock, with a gentle and natural gesture, as if he were soothing a frightened fawn.
His tone was as relaxed as if he were talking about the weather, and he said with a smile, "Let's go, I heard the women's clothing and weapons on the third floor are pretty good, let me get you a few pieces. We're not short of money today, so pick whatever you like."
His words carried an undeniable air of dominance, as if money were nothing more than a bunch of numbers in his eyes.
After saying that, he took Yun Yuyan and walked away with a composed gait, leaving behind only a dashing silhouette.
Liu Jianming and his son, along with a group of dumbfounded people, stood there in a daze, as if they had been frozen in place.
The shop assistant stood to the side, his mouth agape, unable to close it for a long time, his eyes wide like saucers.
She had seen many people of status in this store, including wealthy businessmen and powerful officials, but she had never seen anyone with such a strong aura and disregard for authority as Xiao Chen.
Her mind was filled with doubts, like a tangled mess: Just who was this man?
Is he the heir of some mysterious family?
Or is he an extraordinary person with extraordinary abilities?
She racked her brains but couldn't figure it out.
After Xiao Chen left, Liu Jianming was immediately enraged. His face turned bright red, like a ripe tomato, and the veins on his forehead bulged like wriggling earthworms. He kicked Liu Yuning hard, so hard that Liu Yuning was thrown forward and almost fell to the ground.
Liu Jianming's eyes widened in anger as he roared, "Look at the mess you've made! Mr. Xiao won't forgive you, so don't even think about getting back on your feet! Do you know that your outburst almost dragged the whole family down with you!"
Then, he turned his attention to Li Gang, his eyes filled with anger and disgust, and shouted:
"Li Gang, I heard you offended Mr. Xiao? Don't think I don't know about your shady dealings with your family!"
You and your family have been lining your own pockets in the company, thinking you could get away with it? From today onwards, your entire family is out of the company! Don't even think about getting a single share! If I ever see you again, I'll beat you up every time I see you!
After venting his anger, he hurriedly chased after Xiao Chen in the direction he had left, his steps frantic and urgent, as if he would miss a tremendous opportunity if he was even a step slower.
Only after Liu Jianming's hurried footsteps completely disappeared at the end of the shop did Wang Sha slowly come back to her senses from her shock, as if waking from a dream.
Her body was still trembling slightly uncontrollably, her eyes were empty and confused, as if she had just experienced a terrible nightmare.
She instinctively reached out and grabbed Li Gang's hand beside her. His hands were icy cold and trembling, and his voice was trembling with tears as he asked, "What should we do now? How did things turn out like this..."
Li Gang's anger had already reached its peak, like a volcano about to erupt.
He suddenly flung Wang Sha's hand away with such force that Wang Sha stumbled and almost fell.
His eyes were bloodshot and red. He glared at Wang Sha fiercely, then raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face.
The sharp "snap" sounded particularly jarring in the quiet shop.
Wang Sha's face swelled up instantly, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
"It's all your fault, you stupid woman! If you hadn't provoked Yun Yuyan in the first place, I wouldn't be in this mess! And now you have the nerve to ask me what to do? Why don't you just die!"
Li Gang roared, his voice hoarse with rage.
As he spoke, he kicked Wang Sha hard again, causing her to fall to the ground and crash heavily into the shelf next to her, causing the goods on the shelf to fall and hit her.
"You'd better watch your step from now on. If you dare cause me any more trouble, you'll be sorry! Get lost!"
Li Gang glared at Wang Sha, roaring like an enraged beast.
Wang Sha slumped to the ground, tears welling up in her eyes, but they never fell.
Her eyes were filled with despair, as if the whole world had collapsed.
She gazed in the direction Xiao Chen and Yun Yuyan had left, her heart filled with resentment.
She used to think of herself as superior and the focus of everyone's attention, regarding Yun Yuyan as an ant and trampling on her dignity at will.
But now, reality has struck her like a heavy slap, leaving her utterly ashamed.
Suddenly, she remembered Xiao Chen, the good-for-nothing who had been rumored to have been abandoned by the Ye family.
Considering all the signs that had appeared today, a bold guess flashed through her mind like lightning: Could this mysterious and unpredictable man, whom even Liu Jianming feared so much, be the once-powerful and influential Dragon Kingdom War God Xiao Chen, who had fallen from grace and become a useless figure in everyone's eyes?
