Chapter 7655
Thank you, sir, for your kindness.
"You dare hit my sister! I'll kill you!"
Chen Shaocong roared, clenching his fists and exuding a chilling aura. Just as he was about to rush forward again to fight Xiao Chen to the death, a strong hand suddenly grabbed his arm from behind, so strong that he couldn't move.
Enough!
stop! "
A calm and authoritative voice rang out, carrying an undeniable authority that instantly drowned out all the noise.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties walking quickly over. He was wearing a dark gray Zhongshan suit, with a tall and straight posture, a dignified face, and an air of authority that came with long-standing power. He was clearly not an ordinary person.
Two men dressed in smart suits, who looked like secretaries, followed him respectfully.
When Chen Xue turned around and saw who it was, the fierceness on her face instantly subsided, and her expression became somewhat complicated. Her tone carried a hint of barely perceptible fear: "Dad, why are you here?"
Chen Shaocong was also stunned at this moment.
He was even a little scared. The reason he went to Chen Xue instead of his father was because his father wouldn't protect him like his sister did.
His father was always fair and would never do anything to protect his own without regard for the truth.
"Dad...Dad...Why are you here?"
His father, Chen Jianguo, was the head of the Chen family.
"Why are you following your brother's nonsense? Can't you see that he's letting you have your way?" Chen Jianguo ignored Chen Shaocong and looked at Chen Xue, sighing helplessly, "If you keep acting like this, one day you'll run into someone really tough, and your dad will be left only to collect your corpses!"
Shaking his head, Chen Jianguo walked towards Xiao Chen and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect: "Sir, I am truly sorry. The two children were ignorant. I have already inquired about what happened today, and it was our fault. Our Chen family is willing to compensate you. Please, sir, show leniency."
Xiao Chen didn't actually intend to pursue the matter. If Chen Xue hadn't asked them to pay compensation, he probably would have left by now.
Since Chen Jianguo's words seemed reasonable, there was no need for him to keep harping on it.
Anyway, there's no loss.
Of course, there are some things that still have to be done.
"Make them apologize!"
Xiao Chen pointed at Chen Xue and Chen Shaocong and said calmly.
Chen Jianguo nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He could tell that Xiao Chen was no ordinary person. If they insisted on pursuing the matter further, not only would he be in trouble, but the Chen family would also suffer.
They're being very magnanimous; they only had their own children apologize, which is already incredibly kind of them.
"Why aren't you coming over here to apologize? What are you standing there for? You two good-for-nothings, you'll ruin the Chen family sooner or later!"
He shouted at Chen Xue and Chen Shaocong.
Chen Xue looked visibly aggrieved.
Chen Shaocong directly expressed his dissatisfaction: "Why should we apologize? They broke my robot, so they should be the ones apologizing."
"Apologize!"
Chen Jianguo suddenly roared, and his icy gaze made Chen Shaocong feel as if the blood in his body had frozen.
He had never seen his father so angry, especially since it was directed at them.
Chen Xue was somewhat unwilling, but considering that Xiao Chen had let her off the hook earlier, she simply lowered her head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I acted without understanding the situation."
Chen Shaocong wanted to follow suit, but Chen Jianguo coldly said, "Kneel down and apologize!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Shaocong exploded: "Why should I? Apologize is fine, but why do I have to kneel down?"
"Slap!" Chen Jianguo went straight up and slapped Chen Shaocong across the face. Moreover, he hit the blow hard, and the slap made Chen Shaocong's face visibly swell up.
Chen Jianguo felt sorry for him, but he knew he had to fight.
He knew a little about Xiao Chen and had heard some things about him, especially that he knew Wan Baye.
Today, we must satisfy Xiao Chen.
Otherwise, if Xiao Chen makes a move, his son will only suffer more.
The surrounding chatter suddenly stopped. Everyone was stunned. No one expected Chen Jianhui to hit Chen Shaocong, and to hit him so hard.
Even Chen Xue was stunned. Her previously defiant gaze suddenly became clear.
Chen Shaocong's mind went completely blank. His father had never hit him before.
This is the first time!
And he was hit in front of so many people?
"What are you looking at? You did something wrong and you refuse to admit it, but you even dragged your sister into it. It's only because Mr. Xiao didn't hold it against you, otherwise, you'd be overgrown with weeds by next year."
Chen Jianguo roared in exasperation.
There are some things he can't say outright.
After all, Xiao Chen didn't intend to reveal his identity, and he didn't dare to say anything recklessly, otherwise he would offend even more people.
Chen Shaocong was truly frightened this time, standing there trembling as if he were standing in the snow and wind of the dead of winter.
"Kneel down now!"
Chen Jianguo's voice rang out again.
This time, Chen Shaocong didn't dare to hesitate at all and knelt down on the ground with a thud. Although he really didn't understand why his father was doing this, and what kind of background this guy had that made his father so afraid.
He felt wronged, but he couldn't care less about that at the moment. He knelt down and apologized to Xiao Chen and Yun Yuyan: "What happened today was my fault. I shouldn't have taken your things and attacked you. I'm such a bastard!"
Hearing this, Chen Jianguo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that things have come to this point, he believes Xiao Chen will no longer pursue the matter.
So he hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiao, I've spoiled both children since they were little. I apologize for this, and I promise it won't happen again. You can punish them as you please; I won't stop you!"
Xiao Chen looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then calmly swept his gaze over Chen Shaocong, who was kneeling on the ground, and Chen Xue, who was standing silently with her head down. He slowly spoke, his tone still calm, but with an undeniable confidence: "Mr. Chen, I have nothing to punish or beat you."
Your son tried to steal my painting, but I simply refused to sell it. There's no conflict involved.
If your people try to hit me, and they can't beat my people, then it's because they're not as skilled as me, and they can't blame anyone else.
That's the end of it; I won't pursue this further.
Hearing this, Chen Jianguo breathed a long sigh of relief, his face showing the relief of surviving a disaster. He quickly bowed to Xiao Chen repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, sir!"
Thank you so much for your kindness, sir!
Thank you so much, sir, for your generosity!
Xiao Chen nodded slightly, said no more, and turned to leave with Yun Yuyan.
But just as he took two steps, he suddenly stopped, slowly turned around, and his gaze fell on Chen Jianguo. His eyes held a hint of hesitation, and he lingered on Chen Jianguo's face for a moment.
"Mr. Chen."
Chen Jianguo's heart leaped into his throat. He quickly stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Sir, is there anything else you need?"
I will do my best to do it, as long as it's within my power! (End of Chapter)
