Chapter 1102: Touching Brotherhood
by xennovel“Director Han, the license plate number is Jiang A-00000.”
Zhang Lei repeated the waiter’s words.
However, there was no response at first thinking the other didn’t hear, he said again, “Director Han? Did you hear it? Jiang A-00000.”
“I heard it. So, Director Zhang, if I may ask, why are you inquiring about this?”
Zhang Lei didn’t hide it, directly saying, “The person just came to my restaurant and caused a small conflict.”
“Ah, I see. Director Zhang, let me tell you, you’d better apologize in person soon. If you’re too late, you won’t even have the chance to admit the mistake.”
Hearing this, Zhang Lei paused, barely comprehending, said with uncertainty, “Director Han… you’re not trying to scare me, right?”
“That’s Xu Shaochen, Mr. Xu’s car. Whether I’m scaring you or not, you decide.”
After saying this, the other party directly hung up the call.
“Beep—beep—beep—”
The phone transmitted busy signals, but Zhang Lei was too shocked to care, standing there blank-minded and motionless.
“Boss, boss, are you okay?”
The plump manager cautiously asked.
“Smack!”
Zhang Lei slapped the manager hard, hysterically yelling, “I wasn’t bad to you, was I? Did you really need that 60,000 bucks that bad? You’ve killed me!”
He couldn’t believe his employee tried to blackmail Xu Shaochen.
Before coming to Jiangzhou, he assumed Xu Shaochen was too far from him due to their different standings.
But now he realized Xu Shaochen could be very close indeed.
The plump manager, after the slap, didn’t dare to utter a sound.
“Go prepare 60,000 bucks… no, prepare 600,000 in cash, you come with me!”
Zhang Lei told the plump manager. It wasn’t a secret where Xu Shaochen lived at Floral Peak Villa Estate.
“Boss, do I… do I have to go too?”
The plump manager shivered, evidently frightened.
Though he didn’t hear the phone call.
He could see the opponent was someone even his boss dared not offend.
“Nonsense! You caused this mess, should I handle it alone?”
Zhang Lei scolded angrily, “Hadn’t I slept with your sister, I’d have killed you already.”
……
Floral Peak Villa Estate.
In the living room.
All the women were sent upstairs by Xu Shaochen.
In the large living room, apart from the bodyguards, there were only him and the five men including Wang Kun.
“Xu Shaochen, where is my second brother? Hand him over to me, and I’ll transfer the money to your account.”
Wang Kun said to Xu Shaochen.
“Bring Second Young Master Wang over.”
Xu Shaochen instructed Long Yi.
“Yes, boss.”
Long Yi left and returned two minutes later with Wang Sheng.
“Second brother, are you okay? Did Xu mistreat you?”
Upon seeing Wang Sheng, Wang Kun got up from the sofa and quickly walked over.
“Second Young Master.”
Liao Wenzu and the other four greeted.
“No… he didn’t.”
Wang Sheng shook his head. Even if he was mistreated, could they help him revenge? Xu Shaochen sat against the sofa, smiling at the brothers’ reunion. What a touching scene.
Bleh—
He felt disgusted even as he said it.
“It’s about time, right? Kun, you’ve seen your brother, isn’t it time to give me the money?”
After their polite conversation, Xu Shaochen reminded them of his presence.
They immediately went silent.
“No, you need to let my second brother leave first. I’ll stay here. I’ve already bought the plane ticket. Once he’s on the plane, I’ll transfer the money to you.”
Wang Kun eyed Xu Shaochen with distrust.
“Young Master Kun!”
“Wang Kun!”
Both Wang Sheng and Liao Wenzu’s expressions changed, not expecting him to propose such a condition, placing himself in danger.
“Second brother, no need to speak. My task is to ensure you return safely. Otherwise, how would I face Dad?”
Wang Kun declared with firm tone, allowing no argument.
Although Wang Sheng was touched, he didn’t plan to stop Wang Kun; getting away was enough. Who cared about Wang Kun’s survival?
“No, Young Master Kun, you and Second Young Master should leave. I’ll stay as a hostage!”
Liao Wenzu offered.
“Who do you think you are? They’re Wang Lan’s sons. Are you? Holding you hostage serves no purpose. Don’t you understand your worth?”
Xu Shaochen mocked Liao Wenzu bluntly.
“You…”
Infuriated, Liao Wenzu barely suppressed his anger given the circumstance.
“Brother Liao, how about this: if you’re uneasy, why don’t you stay with me? Let them escort Second Brother to the plane.”
After thinking a while, Wang Kun proposed.
“Okay.” Liao Wenzu readily agreed, telling the three, “Escort Second Young Master safely onto the flight.”
“Yes.”
The three agreed, escorted Wang Sheng out.
“Clap! Clap! Clap!”
Xu Shaochen clapped lightly, “Such touching brotherhood. Even as an only child, I’m moved to tears.”
“Mr. Xu, you flatter me. My poor acting couldn’t possibly make you cry. You’re mocking me!”
Wang Kun discarded his earlier manner, laughed, and leisurely sat on the sofa.
“Too modest. Excessive modesty is pride, you know? Here, have an apple, acknowledge your superb acting.”
Xu Shaochen tossed an apple, which Wang Kun caught and took a big bite.
“You… you…”
Witnessing the shift, Liao Wenzu’s face changed drastically, realizing his peril.
“Indeed, Mr. Xu and I reached an agreement long ago. Surprised? Unexpected?”
Wang Kun shrugged and grinned at Liao Wenzu.
“Wang Kun, I’m here too. If I die, you can’t explain to the boss!”
Liao Wenzu shouted anguished, cold sweat beading his back.
“No need for him to explain. I’ll explain to Wang Lan myself. So just rest easy and die. A dying man shouldn’t worry so much.”
Xu Shaochen leisurely stated, crossing his legs and watching with amusement.
“Ah, Liao Wenzu, you shouldn’t have died, but you stay blindly loyal to my father.”
Wang Kun shook his head with regret, “It’d be great if I could’ve used you.”
“The boss is your father!”
Liao Wenzu shouted, eyes red. He couldn’t believe Wang Kun would betray his own father.
