Chapter 119: Aren't You Afraid of Death?

~7 min read 1,395 words

These drivers were all dumbfounded; earning a bit of money was important, but the machines were their livelihood. That one shovel strike from Chen Yu had directly wrecked the engine. There was no point in playing anymore, and now, not a single person dared to drive their machines forward.

"Kid, where are you from? Do you know who I am?" the big man couldn't help but be furious.

"Brother Wang, don't waste your breath on him. I've checked this guy's background; he's just a gambler who plays cards and drinks," Zhou Peng, who was on the side, instigated.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu asked.

"Have you ever heard of the excavator big shot Wang Laohu? That's me," the big man sneered. "I hold the contracts for forty percent of the urban construction and construction sites in Fengling City. Dare to provoke me? Do you believe that when you get home, you'll find your house turned into a pile of ruins?"

"So it's you?" Chen Yu nodded and said, "I've heard of you. You think your excavator team is pretty impressive, right?"

"That goes without saying. Kid, if you have eyes, get lost. Today's business has nothing to do with you, but if you don't listen, don't blame me for not warning you." Wang Laohu tilted his head and stared at Sun Yu.

"You really think of yourself as a somebody?" Chen Yu sneered. "Do you believe that with one word from me, you won't be able to land any more projects in the future?"

"Are you an idiot?" Wang Laohu looked at Chen Yu as if he were looking at a mental patient. "I don't believe it. Go ahead and make it so I can't land any projects."

"That's what you said. Don't cry later." Chen Yu laughed. He looked back and said, "Xia Tian, have you heard of a guy named Wang Laohu?"

"I've heard of him. The Xia Group has many projects contracted out to his excavator team. Why, is this kid here to cause trouble too?" Xia Tian poked his head out from upstairs in surprise, then walked down.

Then Lin Qingyue, Huang Yiqiang, Zou Dalong, and the others all walked down.

Wang Laohu was completely stunned. He contracted various urban construction projects, earthworks, and the like, and had a massive team; he was doing quite well for himself in Fengling.

But this group of people before him were the kind he could desperately try to curry favor with and still might not even get to meet one of them. How were they all here today?

"Wang Laohu, you're very arrogant, aren't you?" Zou Dalong slapped him across the face with a *snap*. "Do you know where this is?"

"President Zou, why are you here? I'm sorry, it's a misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding." Wang Laohu instantly lost his nerve. He put on a fawning face, the skin on his face twitching slightly, looking like he wanted to smile but couldn't.

"This is my boss. Is there a problem with me coming to show my support today?" Zou Dalong slapped him again.

"Wang Laohu? What kind of character is this guy? How come I've never heard of him?" Huang Yiqiang asked.

"Many of our real estate company's projects are contracted to him." Xia Tian sneered. "Well, it seems he doesn't want to earn his money honestly. Then send out the notice: all future cooperation with him is canceled."

"President Xia, please don't! Please, you mustn't!" Wang Laohu was scared out of his wits. If the Xia Group terminated their contract with him, he would lose half of his projects.

"The Lin Group also has a few projects that you're working on, right?" Lin Qingyue glanced at Wang Laohu. "Then let's cancel that cooperation too. Besides, the infrastructure you dug is substandard; I'll have to sue you."

"Miss Lin is still the thoughtful one. Right, I have to sue you too." Xia Tian gave Lin Qingyue a thumbs-up.

"Miss Lin? You, who are you?"

"Lin Group, Lin Qingyue," Lin Qingyue said indifferently.

Wang Laohu's vision went black. His legs went weak, and he nearly knelt on the ground. What kind of people had he provoked today? Not to mention this whole group being here, even a small fry like Zou Dalong could play him to death.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I didn't understand the situation. I'll leave now, I'll leave right away." Wang Laohu begged for mercy, trembling. "Please let me go, I won't ever dare to do this again."

"I'm afraid it's too late. Just wait to die." Lin Qingyue glanced at him. "Chen Yu, you owe me a favor."

"I'll treat you to a meal another day," Chen Yu laughed.

"Hmph, that's another one you owe me," Lin Qingyue said triumphantly. "I'm leaving first."

"If there's nothing else, get out. Take your team and get lost quickly. If you dare to come here again, I'll break your legs," Zou Dalong said angrily.

Wang Laohu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't dare. He had no choice but to take his team and slink away.

Chen Yu walked up to Zhou Peng and, without a word, slapped him across the face.

"Chen Yu, you dare to hit my grandson?" Zhou Hongru was furious.

"I didn't lay a hand on you because of your age. Do you believe that the next slap will land directly on your face?" Chen Yu stared at Zhou Hongru.

"You..." Zhou Hongru was enraged, but seeing so many powerful forces helping Chen Yu, he could only snort coldly and leave with his grandson.

"Grandfather, are we just going to let it go like this?" After leaving, Zhou Peng said indignantly.

"We certainly can't go head-to-head with them in the open," Zhou Hongru's face was livid. "But in the shadows, they might not be able to guard against us."

"That bastard Chen Yu, how does he know so many people?" Zhou Peng said through gritted teeth. "I'm not finished with him."

"This matter is definitely not over. Heh heh, the Xinglinju brand name belongs to our Mingshun Medicine Hall," Zhou Hongru sneered.

After a whole day, Chen Yu was exhausted, but since the opening of Xinglinju had been such a hit, the future was naturally secure.

"Good kid, your medical skills truly have their merits." Zhao Lao looked at Chen Yu and nodded repeatedly. "From now on, you can use the Xinglinju brand, but your medicine cannot be priced too high."

"That goes without saying. Don't worry, it won't be too high," Chen Yu smiled slightly. "Zhao Lao, our views are the same."

"It's a pity, why did you get married so early?" Mentioning this, Zhao Lao still felt deep reluctance.

"Grandfather, can you stop bringing this up? I'm ignoring you now." Zhao Anran's face turned bright red.

"Haha, alright, no more jokes. Chen Yu, you should go back and rest early too; you've been tired all day," Zhao Lao laughed.

"Alright, Zhao Lao, I'll head back first." Chen Yu nodded; he was indeed exhausted today.

"Chen Yu, where are you? I want to talk to you about the new company today." Before he even got home, Yan Roujin's call came through.

"On the road. Send me your location, I'll head over now," Chen Yu said.

"My place. I'll send the location right away," Yan Roujin said.

Yan Family Courtyard, a residence in the center of the old city district of Fengling.

The courtyard had quite a historical atmosphere. Land in the center of Fengling's old city district was worth its weight in gold; the value of the Yan family having a courtyard here was self-evident.

The duty of the Yan family men was to guard the Lichen, while the women's duty was to do business and support the family. Up until Yan Roujin's generation, she was the only girl, so she took on both supporting the family and guarding the Lichen.

At home, Yan Roujin shed her capable professional image from the company. She was wearing casual clothes and had her hair in a ponytail. When Chen Yu arrived, she was brewing a pot of tea.

"Top-grade Maofeng, have a taste," Yan Roujin smiled.

"Who else is in your family?" Chen Yu took the teacup, looked at the color of the tea, frowned slightly, and took a sip without changing his expression.
