Chapter 930: The Foolish Son of the Landlord’s Family

“Smack!”

Xu Shaochen raised his hand and slapped Lin Wei across the face.

“Ah!”

Lin Wei screamed miserably. Five bright red fingerprints appeared on his face, and a tooth flew out on the spot. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

“You bastard! How dare you hit me!”

Lin Wei glared angrily at Xu Shaochen, his eyes filled with rage and hatred. But because Long Yi and Long Er were holding him down, he couldn’t move at all.

Xu Shaochen grabbed his hair, lifted his head, and made him look straight at him.

“Ah!”

Lin Wei screamed again, baring his teeth in pain.

“I tried reasoning with you, but you wouldn’t listen. Since that’s the case, I’ll have to communicate with you in a different way. Satisfied?”

Xu Shaochen looked at him expressionlessly and asked in a calm tone, though his eyes were icy cold.

“I’ll tell you, you’re… you’re dead meat!”

Lin Wei gritted his teeth and said.

Xu Shaochen showed a mocking smile: “If you spent more time online and followed the news, you wouldn’t be saying something so stupid.”

After speaking, Xu Shaochen turned to his petite secretary behind him and asked: “What’s this guy’s background?”

To act this arrogant, his background must carry some weight.

After all, if he came from an ordinary family with no connections, with his personality and behavior, he wouldn’t have managed to live until now.

The secretary, her face pale, replied, “I… I’m not too sure, but my mom says his family is quite rich. They just moved to Jiangzhou.”

She had already made up her mind to become Xu Shaochen’s mistress, so she had no interest in learning about Lin Wei’s family background.

“Rich?” Xu Shaochen sneered, then turned back to look at Lin Wei with a taunting expression, patting his face with his hand. “So you’re just a stupid rich kid.”

“You bastard, if you have the guts, let me go! I swear I’ll kill you someday!”

Feeling Xu Shaochen’s hand not too lightly patting his face, Lin Wei felt humiliated, his eyes turning red with anger.

“Take out his phone.”

Xu Shaochen said indifferently.

Long Yi rummaged through Lin Wei’s body, quickly found his phone, unlocked it by pressing his finger on it, and then handed it to Xu Shaochen.

“What are you doing? Give me back my phone! Just you wait, all of you, just wait!”

Lin Wei continued his impotent rage.

Ignoring him, Xu Shaochen opened the contacts and found a number marked “Dad,” then dialed it.

“Ring… ring…”

After a few rings, the call was answered. A male voice, full of vigor but with a hint of impatience, came through.

“What is it now? Out of money again? Go ask your brother—don’t bother me!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Shaochen smiled. It seemed this guy wasn’t even liked by his own father.

“Your son is with me. If you’re free, come to the shopping center across from Love Shopping Plaza in the city center.”

Hearing that Xu Shaochen was talking to his father, Lin Wei immediately became overjoyed and shouted, “Dad! Come save me! Bring a lot of people!”

“Who are you? What have you done to my son? I’m warning you—if you so much as touch a hair on his head, don’t blame me for what happens next!”

The previously impatient middle-aged man suddenly sounded tense. His breathing indicated that he was also becoming quite emotional.

“Your son’s already lost more than just a hair. That’s enough talk—just hurry over. Oh, and by the way, my name is Xu Shaochen.”

With that, Xu Shaochen hung up the phone.

Lin Wei felt that the name Xu Shaochen sounded familiar, but he couldn’t quite recall where from. Soon after, his mind was once again filled with fury and hatred.

It doesn’t matter if you’re Xu Shaochen or someone else—whoever hits me, I’ll make sure you pay for it! Meanwhile, in an office…

“Ring… ring… ring…”

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Lin Hao was already drenched in a cold sweat. The name “Xu Shaochen” echoed in his mind, refusing to go away.

“That bastard must have seriously messed up to provoke this man.”

Cursing under his breath, Lin Hao hurriedly grabbed his coat and left the office, calling his driver along the way.

“Xiao Wang, get the car ready. You’re coming with me right away.”

Lin Hao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. After all, being a businessman, how could he not know who Xu Shaochen was?

Nowadays, in the business world, no one could claim not to know Xu Shaochen.

Now that his son had offended Xu Shaochen, how could Lin Hao not be worried?

After all, he’d been in Jiangzhou for a while now and had heard quite a bit about Xu Shaochen over drinks.

He knew very well that if things weren’t handled properly, regret would be an understatement.

……..

At the office building entrance…

Lin Wei was still clueless that his father now wished he could stuff him back into his mother’s womb. He was busy threatening Xu Shaochen.

“You punk! I’m warning you—you’re in deep trouble. Deep trouble! You’re dead!”

“If you know what’s good for you, let me go right now. Bow down and apologize, and maybe I’ll consider going easy on you.”

Xu Shaochen furrowed his brow in annoyance and said, “Shut him up.”

“You b—”

Before Lin Wei could finish, Long Yi slapped him across the face several times in quick succession.

“Smack! Smack! Smack!”

Lin Wei was furious and gritted his teeth, but wisely, he didn’t dare speak out again.

However, he swore silently in his heart that he would make these people pay.

Not to mention that b*tch Ye Ling—me liking you was your blessing, and yet you had the audacity to sneak around with another man! Unbelievable!

“Buzz… buzz…”

Anxious to save his son, Lin Hao told the driver to run through countless red lights, and soon they arrived at the office building.

The black Bentley had barely come to a stop when Lin Hao rushed out.

“Dad! Why are you alone? Where’s everyone? Where are your bodyguards?”

Seeing that Lin Hao had come alone, Lin Wei immediately panicked.

“Shut up!”

Lin Hao shouted angrily, giving his son a fierce glare, then quickly hurried over to Xu Shaochen with a flattering smile on his face.

“Young Master Xu, it’s all a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding! I am Lin Hao, Chairman of Tianhao Corporation. I recently moved to Jiangzhou and wanted to pay my respects to you. Unfortunately, you were out of the country at the time.”

“I never thought our first meeting would be under these circumstances. It’s truly shameful. It’s all my fault for not raising my child properly, which led to him offending you. I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against him.”

Seeing this, Lin Wei was speechless for a while. Then, enraged, he shouted, “Dad, what are you doing? He hit me!”

“Smack!”

A flash of anger crossed Lin Hao’s face as he slapped Lin Wei hard and scolded him sternly:

“You ungrateful brat! Shut up! Do you know who this is? This is none other than Xu Shaochen, the Young Master of the Xu Corporation who you worship as an idol every day. And now that he’s in front of you, you don’t even recognize him? What are you waiting for? Apologize to him immediately!”

Lin Hao’s words were very tactful—flattering Xu Shaochen while subtly hinting to Lin Wei about who he was facing, warning him to behave.

As expected, age brings wisdom.
