Li Lin

At Golden Luxury KTV.

Liu Dong hung up the phone and slammed his hand on the table in a fit of rage. He then called out to the office, "Li Lin, bring a few men in here."

Soon, the office door opened, and a bald man wearing a large gold chain entered, followed by several fierce-looking subordinates.

This bald man at the front was Li Lin.

Li Lin was Liu Dong's right-hand man, having done many things for Liu Dong in the past.

He was also a prominent figure in the shadowy underworld of the city.

Many people would lose their nerve just hearing Li Lin's name, but this very same Li Lin, who had such a fearsome reputation in the city's dark corners, was as obedient as a dog in front of Liu Dong.

"Boss Liu," Li Lin nodded and stood before Liu Dong.

Liu Dong opened a cigar box and tossed a cigar to each of them, then lit one for himself and said, "Do you know about that Caiying beauty company?"

Li Lin nodded, "Yes, I've heard they recently got a new president, and this new president has really put Caiying on the map."

"Caiying's owner and some little bastard named Gu Chenan laid hands on Xiao Wan," Liu Dong said, suppressing his anger.

"What?!" Li Lin was shocked and asked in disbelief, "They hit Xiao Wan? Don't they know she's your daughter, Boss Liu?"

Liu Dong gritted his teeth and said, "They know!"

"This..." Li Lin was dumbfounded. "Are they stupid?"

Liu Dong shook his head and said, "I don't know if they're stupid or not, I just know that they'll have to pay for touching Xiao Wan."

As he spoke, Liu Dong narrowed his eyes and said, "You know what to do, right?"

Li Lin nodded, "Yes, Boss Liu. I understand."

"Very good." Liu Dong waved his hand and said, "Then go."

"Yes, sir."

Li Lin waved to his subordinates and prepared to leave.

But just then, Liu Dong called out a reminder, "Keep it clean. Don't leave any evidence that could be traced back to us."

......

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Gu Chenan had initially thought that given the tone he used when speaking to Liu Dong, Liu Dong would come looking for him soon. So, Gu Chenan hadn't left Su Qianmo's side for these two days.

However, these two days passed peacefully without incident, as if the conflict between Gu Chenan and Liu Dong had never happened.

But Gu Chenan knew that Liu Dong wouldn't let this matter go so easily.

The slaps he and Su Qianmo gave Liu Wan weren't just hitting Liu Wan, they were also a slap in the face to Liu Dong.

It was impossible for Liu Dong, a prominent figure in the city, to do nothing when his daughter was bullied.

Ding dong~

Just then, Gu Chenan's phone rang.

He checked it and saw it was the class group chat.

When Gu Chenan's old classmates learned that he had offended Liu Dong, they were shocked, confused, and bewildered.

If nothing else, Gu Chenan could now be considered a winner in life. Not only had he bought a company, but he had also made it flourish. Most importantly, Gu Chenan had a stunningly beautiful girlfriend.

So why did he hit Liu Dong's daughter?

Couldn't he just enjoy his good life? Why did he have to court death?

No matter how rich you are, you can't afford to offend someone like Liu Dong!

With these doubts, the classmates in the group chat were discussing Gu Chenan's actions.

"@Gu Chenan, Old Gu, I heard you hit Liu Dong's daughter?"

"No way, Old Gu. Why did you hit Liu Dong's daughter? Don't you know who Liu Dong is?"

"I heard Liu Dong's daughter said she'd make you pay. You should hurry up and apologize. If Liu Dong takes action, you'll be in danger."

"Old Gu, you're too reckless. I heard you even hit Liu Dong's daughter in public. Aren't you just slapping Liu Dong's face?"

"That's right. Seriously, Old Gu, you should apologize quickly. You need to take this matter seriously!"

Looking at the messages in the group, Gu Chenan sighed helplessly.

These people... since when did they care so much about his situation?

But, that said, one shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. They were kindly advising him, so he couldn't just ignore them, could he?

Just as Gu Chenan was about to reply with a message to reassure everyone, one person's message made his eyebrows shoot up.

Song Xiaoli: "Got a little money and think you're invincible, huh? You dare to hit our Boss Liu's daughter? Gu Chenan, you're really asking for death. Our Boss Liu said he'll definitely teach you a lesson this time!"

Boss Liu?

Gu Chenan frowned, thinking for a moment.

Oh right, this Song Xiaoli works at Dragon Power Group, and that Liu Wan is a manager of some department at Dragon Power Group.

"Heh," realizing this, Gu Chenan smirked, "Two narcissistic women really found each other, didn't they?"

After Song Xiaoli's message, the group fell silent for a few seconds, then a flood of messages trying to smooth things over poured in.

"Xiaoli, you can't say that. Old Gu is still our classmate, after all."

"What Old Gu did wasn't smart, but what you're saying is going too far."

"Liu Dong's daughter is your manager, right? Why don't you try to persuade her on Old Gu's behalf? @Song Xiaoli"

The last message made even Gu Chenan pause in surprise.

Damn, I got Song Xiaoli's boyfriend fired. How could she possibly help me?

Gu Chenan only knew that Huang Yuan had lost his job, not that Huang Yuan and Song Xiaoli had broken up. But even so, it was clear that Song Xiaoli wouldn't help him.

Sure enough, Song Xiaoli quickly replied with a message.

"Help him? Don't make me laugh. Didn't he get rich and start looking down on everyone? Why would he let me help?"

"Besides, he deserves to be taught a good lesson for what he did. Otherwise, he'll never know his place!"

Song Xiaoli already had a belly full of anger towards Gu Chenan, and now she was blaming him for her breakup with Huang Yuan as well. Far from helping Gu Chenan, she was practically hoping for his demise.

"Sigh."

Gu Chenan sighed. He hadn't planned on giving her another scolding in the group chat, but she was just asking for it, wasn't she?

Quickly, Gu Chenan's fingers flew over the keyboard, typing out a long message.

"@Song Xiaoli, how does it feel to have your boyfriend lose his job? Oh, I forgot to ask, where is Huang Yuan working now that he's jobless? How come no one in the whole city has heard anything about him?"

"Also, Liu Wan is your manager, right? No wonder you're as stupid as she is. Don't worry about how this situation will turn out, you should focus more on helping your boyfriend find a job."

"And by the way, you're completely free to show this message I'm sending you today to Liu Wan. I know you'll do that anyway."

"Lastly, let me give you a piece of advice: if you don't want to get slapped, stop being passive-aggressive in the group chat. Otherwise, I'll let you taste what a slap feels like too."
