"Then go ahead. I'm a bit unwell from drinking too much yesterday, so I'll take a nap here!" Wang Xiaoyan said gently, rubbing her head.
"Alright, I'm leaving," Chen Jie picked up the car keys and said to Lin Mengjiao, "Please entertain them for me."
Jiang Xue stared intently at Chen Jie's retreating back. After Chen Jie disappeared from view, she glanced at Lin Mengjiao, her expression filled with disdain.
...
An hour later, Chen Jie arrived in front of a business club called Dihow. This was the location Tang Hai had told him about. The person Tang Hai had arranged to meet today was supposed to treat him here.
"Make way! Please make way! Master Yang is arriving, all unauthorized personnel should retreat!" Suddenly, staff members from the club, escorting an elder in his fifties, walked inside. Seeing Chen Jie blocking the way, one of the staff members roughly pushed him.
Chen Jie's brow furrowed, and he dodged directly.
"Ah!" The staff member missed and stumbled to the ground.
"Why the hell did you dodge?" the staff member glared at Chen Jie, shouting.
Chen Jie said calmly, "You pushed me, so should I just wait to be pushed?"
Hmm? Hearing this, Yang Tian frowned and glanced at Chen Jie.
"Damn it, you garbage, pushing you was giving you face. You actually dodged on purpose and now you're making excuses?" The staff member made a move to attack Chen Jie.
However, the manager beside Yang Tian noticed Yang Tian's frown and quickly shouted, "Stop! Master Yang is a distinguished guest from Ao'men. Don't dirty his eyes!" He paused and added, "Some matters can be handled privately."
"You, you, stay here. I'll escort Master Yang personally." "Master Yang, let's go!" The manager said respectfully to Yang Tian.
"Mm!" Yang Tian nodded, disdainfully remarking, "This is the poor quality of you mainlanders. This Master has the magnanimity not to associate with the likes of you." "Otherwise, if I become displeased, you will all die."
The manager broke out in a cold sweat and plastered on a smile. Soon, he led Yang Tian inside.
"You little brat, what kind of dog are you to almost make the distinguished Master Yang from Ao'men angry? Do you know how big a mistake you've made?" the staff member who remained pointed at Chen Jie and shouted angrily.
Chen Jie's brow furrowed. "Are people from Ao'men that noble?"
"Heh, you don't know anything. Ao'men is full of rich people. Master Yang is also a master of spiritual arts. Crushing you would be as easy as crushing an ant!"
"Just a weakling. You're groveling way too obviously," Chen Jie said dismissively.
"What did you say? How dare you disrespect Master Yang?"
"Scum, I'll smash your face in!" One of them immediately raised his palm and slapped hard towards Chen Jie.
Bang! Chen Jie directly kicked out. The man flew up like a cannonball and landed on the ground. Chen Jie said coldly, "Scram!"
"Trash, you dare cause trouble in our Dihow club, you're asking for death!"
"Let's all go at him together and kill him!" Several people's eyes flashed with fierce glints. They all charged at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie's expression turned cold, and he swept his leg out. "Since you all like to grovel, then grovel you shall!" As Chen Jie's leg swept over their legs, there were dull thuds. These people cried out in pain, flew up from where they stood, and finally landed heavily on the ground, kneeling.
"Ah! My knees!"
"My legs are broken!"
"Call for help!"
"Scum, you're finished!" The kneeling men shouted venomously. Chen Jie ignored them and went to the club's VIP hall.
"Bum? How are you still here?" The manager saw Chen Jie as he came out of the hall after escorting Yang Tian. He was taken aback and shouted, "A bunch of losers, don't you understand what I mean? You actually let this idiot in."
"Get out!" The manager slapped towards Chen Jie.
Slap! Chen Jie countered with his own hand, and with a crisp sound, the manager somersaulted in the air several times before falling heavily to the ground.
"You short-sighted dog, do you know who I am?" Chen Jie frowned.
"Who the hell are you?" The manager shouted angrily, covering his face.
Chen Jie pointed to his face and said in a deep voice, "Look closely, I am someone you cannot afford to offend."
"Who the hell do you think you are? I'm going to offend you today!" The manager roared with rage and got up to attack Chen Jie.
"Stop!" A clear voice rang out. Tang Ruotong, swaying her slender waist, hurried out.
"Ah? Miss Tang, you're here. My apologies, an idiot has infiltrated our club. I'll arrange for someone to remove him immediately!" The manager quickly took out his walkie-talkie.
"No need!" Tang Ruotong waved her hand. Then she looked at Chen Jie, displeased. "Damn it, why are you so late? We're all waiting for you!"
What? The manager stared at the two of them in shock. Could it be that this idiot was also one of the people Tang Hai had invited?
"Don't you see I was being blocked?" Chen Jie said unhappily.
"Damn it, how could you block someone we invited?" Tang Ruotong directly slapped the manager across the face and shouted.
"Miss Tang, I..." The manager was about to explain, but Tang Ruotong immediately shouted, "Get out! Don't disturb us without my permission!"
"Yes, I'm leaving!" The manager gritted his teeth. He thought to himself that if Chen Jie was truly invited by Tang Ruotong, then he was indeed someone he couldn't afford to offend. After all, he was just a lowly manager. Upon reaching the club entrance, he saw several security guards kneeling on the ground. He was instantly aghast. Did that idiot do all this? He was too violent!
Meanwhile, Chen Jie was being led into the hall by Tang Ruotong. Inside the hall, about a dozen people sat on chairs, forming a circle. Tang Hai sat in the center of the circle.
"Dad, Chen Jie is here!" Tang Ruotong said.
Tang Hai looked up and was about to speak when Yang Tian, who was sitting in the innermost seat, frowned. "So, it's you who is scamming Tang Hai!"
Chen Jie asked curiously, "Did you and Tang Hai arrange for you to treat his illness?"
"I will not only cure Tang Hai's illness, but I will also expose your scam today!" Yang Tian said indifferently.
"A scam? Is that what Tang Hai told you?" Chen Jie looked at Tang Hai in the middle with a playful smile and asked.
"You little thief, before you speak to Master Yang, you must respectfully call him Master, do you understand?" Tang Wenwu couldn't help but shout.
"I'm here to save your father today, and this is how you speak to me?" Chen Jie said coldly.
"Pah! If Master Yang hadn't appeared, we wouldn't have known you were a liar! What are you pretending for? Do you really think no one can do anything about the tricks you played on my father?" Tang Wenwu said dismissively.
Tang Ruotong also sat down on a chair with a cold smile, looking at Chen Jie. Chen Jie understood. So today, Tang Hai hadn't simply asked him to come and treat an illness.
"Tang Hai, is this your idea too?" Chen Jie asked with a cold laugh.
