"Slap!"
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
The sound of slaps echoed throughout the office.
The employees outside the office all stopped in confusion when they heard the noise.
"What's going on? What's that sound?"
"Don't you know? Mr. Gu had Liu Dong and his daughter brought to the office."
"No, I mean, bringing them is one thing, but what's that sound?"
"Can't you tell? Those are slaps!"
"Damn, you mean..."
The employees outside the office were suddenly shocked.
The person inside was Liu Dong!
In the office.
"Gu Chenan, can you please make them stop? If you have any issues, take them up with me, don't trouble Wan!" As Liu Dong spoke, he rushed toward Gu Chenan, but when he was just a meter away, two bodyguards grabbed his arms and pinned him to the ground.
"Uncle Liu, didn't you just hear? Liu Wan said she wanted me to have people slap her, it has nothing to do with me," Gu Chenan said with a smile.
"But..." Liu Dong froze, unable to respond.
Watching his precious daughter being slapped by more than a dozen bodyguards taking turns, Liu Dong wished he could kill Gu Chenan right then and there.
But now, his right-hand man Li Lin and his subordinates were still in the hospital, and Wang Hu and his men were under Gu Chenan's control. He was completely outmatched against Gu Chenan at the moment.
But if he could just get away, one phone call to those important figures would definitely make Gu Chenan pay!
Thinking this, Liu Dong changed his attitude: "Chen-Chenan, don't take things too far. I used to hold you when you were little, you know?"
"You even call me uncle, we're practically family. This time it's my fault, I apologize to you. Can we end this here?"
"Heh."
Gu Chenan leaned back on the sofa and smiled, "Uncle Liu, when you had Li Lin ambush me with knives on that small road, you weren't thinking about us being family then, were you?"
"Besides, Liu Wan has repeatedly humiliated me and even threatened to deal with my father. You can't expect me to let her off so easily, right?"
"And when my father begged you for mercy, you didn't think about us being family and back down either, did you?"
"I..."
Liu Dong was speechless. After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he said, "Chenan, tell me what you want me to do. Please spare Wan, okay? She's still a child, don't hold it against her."
"A child?" Gu Chenan laughed, "A child in her twenties?"
With that, Gu Chenan stood up and stretched, saying, "To be honest, when I had people openly bring you two from Golden Luxury, I wasn't planning to do anything serious to you."
"By now, probably half of Magic City knows about this. If anything serious happened to you, I'd end up in jail."
"I understand," Liu Dong nodded.
Earlier, when he wanted Wang Hu to take Gu Chenan and Su Qianmo from Caiying, he had thought the same thing.
He just wanted to show everyone in Magic City what happens to people who cross Liu Dong. In his heart, he only wanted Gu Chenan to apologize and admit his mistakes in front of everyone in Magic City.
Of course, Liu Wan's slaps would have to be repaid.
"So, my request is simple. You and Liu Wan apologize to me and Caiying's CEO Su Qianmo, and we'll call it even. If you agree, I'll have them stop right now."
Liu Dong nodded without hesitation: "I agree, I agree, please make them stop!"
"Now that's being sensible."
Gu Chenan waved his hand, and the men holding Liu Dong and the black-suited bodyguards surrounding Liu Wan all stopped.
At this point, Liu Wan's entire face was swollen like a pig's head, blood flowing from her nose and mouth, unable to even speak.
Seeing Liu Wan in this state, Liu Dong's eyes reddened as he quickly went to her side to support her swaying body.
"Wan, are you alright?"
Liu Wan shook her head, blood continuing to drip from the corner of her mouth. She couldn't even open her mouth now.
Gu Chenan waved his hand again, and a bodyguard went to open the office door.
Liu Dong glanced at the open door, then looked back at Gu Chenan. He didn't speak, but the thick hatred in his eyes was unmistakable.
Gu Chenan saw it but pretended not to notice, nodding slightly: "Uncle Liu, remember what you promised. I won't see you out."
Liu Dong gritted his teeth, his jaw muscles tensing as he forced out a few words: "Don't worry, I will."
With that, he supported Liu Wan as they walked out of the office, while Wang Hu and the others followed them out with their tails between their legs.
"Young Master Gu, do you really think Liu Dong will keep his word?" Ma Bing asked doubtfully.
Gu Chenan gave him a playful glance: "That old fox certainly won't. We beat his daughter's face into a pig's head today, he probably wants to kill me."
"If that's the case, then why did you..."
Before Ma Bing could finish, Gu Chenan interrupted: "Why did I just let them leave?"
Ma Bing nodded, showing an attentive listening pose.
Gu Chenan smiled: "What else could I do? Kill Liu Dong and Liu Wan?"
"We made such a big scene today, half of Magic City knows Liu Dong and Liu Wan are here with me, so we couldn't do anything like that."
"Besides, I never intended to do that anyway. I just wanted to show everyone in Magic City what happens when you offend me, Gu Chenan."
"That's why I had you beat Liu Wan. If I had just brought them to Caiying and they left unscathed afterward, everyone in Magic City would think I was all talk and didn't dare to touch Liu Dong."
"Whether Liu Dong apologizes to me or not, having Liu Wan walk out of Caiying's main entrance with that pig face sends a signal to Magic City."
As he spoke, Gu Chenan turned his head, wearing a faint smile: "I, Gu Chenan, am not someone to be trifled with."
Ma Bing nodded, thought for a moment, then asked: "But Liu Dong will definitely seek revenge later."
"I know."
Gu Chenan sat on the sofa, gesturing for Ma Bing to sit beside him.
"Think about it, Liu Dong's power basically consists of those rabble led by Li Lin and Wang Hu. Now that Liu Dong is certain his own forces aren't enough to deal with me, what will he do?"
Ma Bing thought for a moment and said: "He'll look for help."
"Exactly!"
Gu Chenan nodded and asked: "So who will he look for?"
"Whoever can overpower you, Young Master Gu," Ma Bing said.
"Not quite accurate." Gu Chenan shook his head and said: "It's whoever Liu Dong thinks can overpower me."
"So basically, he'll look for some big shots."
"Correct, but..." Ma Bing nodded, still puzzled.
Seeing his expression, Gu Chenan smiled and said: "Let him go look for people. Let me ask you, who do those big shots in Magic City consider to be the real big shot?"
Hearing this, Ma Bing suddenly understood and smiled: "You."
"That's right." Gu Chenan stood up and said: "Let's go, it's been a while since we took a walk together."

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
