Gu Zheng's shout startled Lin Mei. She turned back angrily and said, "What are you yelling about?"
"Look, look at this!"
Gu Zheng anxiously held his phone screen in front of Lin Mei. With a hint of confusion, Lin Mei looked at Gu Zheng's phone screen.
After she finished reading the text below the video, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Su Qianmo, the CEO of Caiying, and her fiancé Gu Chenan?
Wow, their son had made such powerful connections!
"Qianmo is actually the CEO of Caiying?"
After a moment, Lin Mei finally expressed her shock with widened eyes. However, Gu Zheng said with a gloomy expression, "Li Lin was beaten and forced to kneel and beg for mercy."
Lin Mei was stunned: "Li Lin? The one who follows Liu Dong?"
"Yes." Gu Zheng nodded: "The internet is saying that Chenan did this."
"What?"
Lin Mei was startled, her eyes flashing with disbelief: "How could it possibly be Chenan?"
Gu Zheng said worriedly, "Just finish watching this first."
Lin Mei's mouth moved as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately said nothing, turning her gaze back to Gu Zheng's phone screen.
Soon after finishing reading the text, Lin Mei stood there in a daze, as if she had encountered the most unbelievable thing in her life. Her mouth slightly open, her pupils trembling.
Although this passage wasn't long, it basically recapped the whole affair between Gu Chenan and Liu Wan from beginning to end.
Not only did Gu Chenan hit Liu Wan, but he also beat Li Lin to such a state.
Although they didn't know how Gu Chenan managed to deal with Li Lin, both Lin Mei and Gu Zheng became worried for Gu Chenan.
That was Liu Dong, the infamous Liu Dong known throughout the entire Magic City. They knew all too well what their son was capable of.
Wasn't he just asking for death by doing this?
"Old Gu, you... you should call Liu Dong first. Aren't you childhood friends? Quick, put in a good word for Chenan."
"No, don't call. Let's buy some gifts and go to Liu Dong's house right now to apologize in person."
Lin Mei quickly stood up, flustered.
Gu Zheng remained much calmer, though only in comparison to Lin Mei.
"I'll... I'll call Liu Dong first. What if it's just someone with the same name?" Liu Dong still held onto a glimmer of hope.
"How could it be someone with the same name? How could there be such a coincidence in the world?" Lin Mei urged, "Hurry up, let's go."
Gu Zheng ignored Lin Mei and still dialed Liu Dong's number.
......
Meanwhile.
At Golden Luxury KTV.
"I must kill this Gu Chenan!"
"Damn it, he dares to put this video online. He's deliberately humiliating me!"
After seeing that video, Liu Dong roared furiously in his office.
Liu Wan stood beside him, biting her lip and remaining silent.
She had just gotten off work and was thinking of going home early to relax, but she never expected to see this video. After watching it, she was trembling with anger, so she came directly to her father.
Liu Dong had also just seen this video and immediately flew into a rage.
For so many years, who in Magic City dared to make him lose face like this?
Even the other underground figures in Magic City would give him some respect, but he never expected this Gu Chenan to humiliate him repeatedly.
First, he hit his daughter in front of so many people, and now he beat his right-hand man Li Lin into such a state and even uploaded the video online.
This was like defecating on his head!
"Dad, getting angry here won't solve anything. Why don't we take action tonight and make that Gu Chenan pay the price!"
Liu Wan raised her head, her eyes flashing with anger.
"I've just called and notified everyone. Tomorrow, we'll definitely teach Gu Chenan a lesson!" Liu Dong said viciously.
However, at this moment, Liu Dong's phone rang.
He went to the desk and picked up the phone. Seeing that the caller was Gu Zheng, his expression immediately turned cold.
"Dad, who is it?"
Liu Wan saw that Liu Dong hadn't answered the phone for a while and asked curiously.
Liu Dong shook his head and answered the call.
"Speak." Liu Dong had already guessed what Gu Zheng was going to say, so his tone was extremely unfriendly.
"Dongzi, about you and Chenan......"
Before Gu Zheng could finish, Liu Dong interrupted, "Gu Zheng, if it's about this matter, we have nothing to talk about. Your son not only hit my daughter but also put the video of beating Li Lin online to humiliate me. Since he's asking for death, I'll grant his wish!"
Previously, even if Liu Dong hadn't been in contact with Gu Zheng for a long time, he wouldn't have treated him with this attitude. But this time was different. Gu Chenan had made him lose so much face, how could Liu Dong still be cordial with Gu Zheng?
Gu Zheng quickly said, "Dongzi, Chenan doing these things is due to my failure in raising him. I apologize to you. Please don't take it out on the child. I'll come to apologize in person tomorrow, okay?"
"Hmph." Liu Dong snorted coldly, "No need for apologies. You just prepare to collect that little beast Gu Chenan's corpse tomorrow."
"Gu Zheng, don't think that just because you and my dad are childhood friends, this matter can be trivializedA. Let me tell you, Gu Chenan dared to make my dad lose face, he's dead for sure!"
At this moment, Liu Wan grabbed the phone and shouted angrily at Gu Zheng.
On any other occasion, Liu Dong would have stopped Liu Wan, but this time he not only didn't stop her but also waved his hand, signaling Liu Wan to continue.
Seeing this, Liu Wan continued, "Gu Zheng, let me tell you, it's only because you and my dad are childhood friends that he hasn't touched you. If you dare to call again, my dad won't need to act, I'll bring people to pay you a visit myself!"
With that, she hung up the phone.
On the other end of the line, hearing these words, Gu Zheng sat dumbfounded on the sofa.
From the tone of Liu Dong and Liu Wan, it seemed that this time they were determined to deal with Gu Chenan no matter what.
"Have you finished the call? What did Liu Dong say?" Lin Mei asked anxiously from the side.
"Sigh."
Gu Zheng sighed and said, "Don't bother with Liu Dong anymore. It's useless."
Hearing this, Lin Mei understood the implications, and her entire face scrunched up, "Then... then what should we do?"
Gu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Call Chenan, tell him to leave Magic City with his girlfriend tonight. Liu Dong will bring people to find him tomorrow."
"Okay!"
Lin Mei hurriedly took out her phone and called Gu Chenan.
However, at this moment, Gu Chenan was busy with important matters and didn't pay attention to the sound of his phone.
Or rather, Su Qianmo's voice was too loud, causing Gu Chenan to not hear his phone at all.
"This child, why isn't he answering the phone?"
Lin Mei paced back and forth anxiously, but the phone kept ringing busy.
