Soon, the group arrived at the private room of the restaurant.
After chatting for a short while, the dishes were served.
Cai Cheng had completely dropped his airs. At this moment, acting just like a waiter, he busied himself pouring wine for everyone present.
"Young Master Cai, Young Master Wang, why didn't you let me know you were coming here to eat? If the front desk manager hadn't told me just now, I wouldn't have even known you were here."
Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and a young man in a sharp suit walked in. He looked to be in his twenties.
"Xu Quan?"
Recognizing the newcomer, both Cai Cheng and Wang Er couldn't help but frown.
Xu Quan was a top-tier young master in the Demon City, just like them. The Xu family was primarily involved in the real estate industry. With urban development booming across the country in recent years, the Xu family was currently at the height of its power and influence.
"Are these all your friends?"
Completely oblivious to the displeased expressions on Wang Er and Cai Cheng's faces, Xu Quan strolled leisurely into the private room. He swept his gaze around and found that they were all young people he didn't recognize.
He walked straight up to Qin Ning because, at that moment, Wang Er was sitting right next to him. Xu Quan said, "Please move aside. I have some matters to discuss with Young Master Wang."
Qin Ning remained silent, simply looking at him calmly.
"What?"
Seeing that Qin Ning didn't move, as if he hadn't heard a thing, Xu Quan immediately frowned. He looked at Wang Er and said, "Young Master Wang, who is this friend of yours? Is he deaf?"
"Xu Quan, are you fucking courting death?!"
Before Wang Er could speak, Cai Cheng, who was beside them, couldn't hold back anymore. He stood up abruptly, glaring at Xu Quan furiously.
It wasn't just him; Xia Fei, Zhou Ping'an, and Zhong Mingyuan also stood up immediately, surrounding Xu Quan.
"Kid, do you know who you're talking to?" Xia Fei patted his shoulder.
Xu Quan's frown deepened, his face showing distinct displeasure. "Who are you? How dare you pat my shoulder? Young Master Wang, Young Master Cai, these friends of yours are a bit too lacking in manners."
"So what if I pat your shoulder?"
Zhou Ping'an took a step forward. "I'm going to fucking beat you up!"
Saying that, without any more nonsense, he directly threw his fists and feet at Xu Quan's face.
Xia Fei and Zhong Mingyuan naturally didn't stay idle either. Even Wang Er and Cai Cheng went up and gave him a couple of kicks.
"Ouch... Ouch... Fuck..."
Xu Quan was beaten so badly he scurried around holding his head, his face instantly turning black and blue.
"Cai Cheng! Wang Er! What the fuck are you doing?"
It wasn't until the crowd stopped that Xu Quan covered his swollen, red face and cursed loudly, "Why are you beating me for no reason? I fucking..."
"You still dare to run your mouth, huh?"
Xia Fei said, delivering another kick to his body. "You're fucking blind! How dare you ask Young Master Qin to give up his seat for you? Who the fuck do you think you are?"
"Ouch..."
With that, the group launched another coordinated attack on him, beating Xu Quan until he screamed incessantly.
"What Young Master Qin? I don't know him! Is there a young master in the Demon City that I don't know?"
When they finally stopped again, he wiped the blood flowing from his nose with an angry face. "Wang Er, Cai Cheng, you've got guts! Just wait, this isn't over!"
After saying that, Xu Quan quickly fled the private room, terrified that these guys would swarm him again.
"Hello, Dad!"
As soon as he ran out of the room, he didn't hesitate to take out his phone and make a call.
On the other end of the line, Xu Kaiyu was instantly furious after hearing his son's description. "Are you sure they beat you for no reason?"
"I just asked someone to move over so I could have a seat. I didn't even say anything bad, but their whole group just rushed up and beat me. Wang Er and Cai Cheng even sneakily kicked me a few times. My whole body is covered in injuries right now! Dad, stop asking questions and get justice for me. I've already asked the front desk to call an ambulance. There's no way I'm letting this go. You have to make those guys pay the price!"
"Don't worry. Normally, I'd let it slide if you younger generation just had a minor scuffle, but this time they actually beat you up, and so ruthlessly at that. Dad will definitely step in. Go to the hospital first; I'll handle the rest." Xu Kaiyu snorted coldly and then hung up the phone.
He began scrolling through his contacts, seemingly looking for the numbers of Wang Lin and Cai Kun.
This matter had clearly escalated to the point where the elders needed to step forward and resolve it.
"President Xu, President Xu, this is bad!"
Just then, outside the office door, a tall female secretary rushed in hurriedly.
"What are you panicking about?"
Xu Kaiyu frowned. He was currently in a fit of anger, so his tone naturally wasn't good.
"President Xu, the Wang family... it's the Wang family. They suddenly announced they are suppressing all the industries under our company's name..."
Before the female secretary could finish her sentence, another female secretary rushed in. "President Xu, the Cai family just issued a notice..."
Upon hearing their words, Xu Kaiyu immediately slammed the table and stood up. Connecting this to how his son had just been beaten by Wang Er and Cai Cheng, he flew into a rage.
However, he quickly calmed down again. Although the Xu family was not weak, if they faced the combined siege of the Wang and Cai families simultaneously, they definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it and would inevitably suffer heavy losses.
He hurriedly dialed Wang Lin's number. "Hello, Lao Wang, what is the meaning of this?"
"What do you mean, what is the meaning of this?" Wang Lin asked in return on the other end of the line.
"Why ask when you already know? You and Cai Kun issued notices at the same time to join forces and suppress me. We haven't had any conflicts before, have we? Haven't we always minded our own business?"
"Furthermore, your son and Lao Cai's son just attacked my son at a restaurant. What is the reason for that?"
Wang Lin's tone was calm. "You're talking about that?"
He stayed silent for a moment before saying, "Old Xu, I won't say much more, but all I can tell you is that this time, your Xu family is doomed for sure."
With that said, he directly hung up the phone.
Listening to the dial tone from the phone, Xu Kaiyu was furious, wishing he could smash the phone. But he quickly calmed down again, hastily found another number, and dialed it directly.
"Lao Cai, it's me, Xu Kaiyu..."
"Beep, beep, beep!"
However, before he could even finish a sentence, Cai Kun directly hung up on the other end.
"Fuck!"
Xu Kaiyu flew into a rage. "Good, good, good. You want to play it like this, right?"
He took a deep breath, found another number in his contacts, and dialed it immediately.
"Hello?"
From the other end of the line came the confused voice of Ma Anguo, the top official of the Demon City.
As a top entrepreneur in the Demon City, Xu Kaiyu naturally had frequent interactions with Ma Anguo on regular days, and the two had saved each other's phone numbers.
