Chapter 215: I Really Didn't Take Him Seriously

Slap...

Chen Yu slapped Li Yu heavily right in front of Li Shen. Li Yu's body twitched violently, then he collapsed heavily onto the ground; he didn't even have the strength to scream anymore.

"Chen Yu, what are you doing? Li Zong is standing right in front of you; do you have any respect for him at all?" Cao Jing was stunned.

"Slap..." Chen Yu slapped Li Yu's face again. This time, Li Yu didn't even let out a groan; he fainted instantly.

"I'm beating his son right in front of him. Do you see him daring to let out a single peep?" Chen Yu glanced at Cao Jing.

"Li Zong..." Cao Jing was unconvinced.

"Shut up..." Li Shen swung a slap that left Cao Jing's mouth bleeding. He roared in a rage, "Where did this cheap woman come from? Throw her out."

"Li Zong... what is going on, Li Zong? I am your son's girlfriend." Cao Jing was terrified. She looked at Li Shen with her mouth dripping blood, feeling at a loss for what to do.

"Girlfriend? A woman like you who is common property dares to call herself my son's girlfriend? Get out." Li Shen roared with murderous intent, "If you dare to let out one more word, I'll hack you to death right now."

"I'm sorry, Li Zong, I'm leaving, I'm leaving right now." Cao Jing was scared out of her wits; she covered her face and retreated.

"Chen Yu... what do you want?" Li Shen steadied himself and continued to negotiate with Chen Yu.

His son's face was covered in blood and he was on the verge of death, yet he had no way to deal with Chen Yu. He was terrified that Chen Yu might get agitated and take his son's life on the spot.

"I don't want anything. I just simply want to shut down your club," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Chen Yu, don't go too far," Li Shen said angrily. "This is Du Feng's place."

"Oh, Du Feng?" Chen Yu glanced at him and said, "Go ahead and call him to come over."

"Just you wait." Li Shen gritted his teeth, picked up his phone, and called Du Feng: "Du Zong..."

"Get out fast. The matter of the contraband in the factory has been leaked; the police will be here immediately." As soon as the call connected, he heard Du Feng's low voice.

"What?" Li Shen was shocked. "Du Zong, you have to save me."

"I can't help you." Du Feng was silent for a moment. "I only hold a few shares and don't participate in management. I never told you to sell drugs at the club."

"Du Zong, I've been working for you all these years. Now that I'm in trouble, you must save me." Li Shen gritted his teeth. "Otherwise, I can't guarantee whether I'll start talking nonsense."

Du Feng was silent, then said, "Don't worry, I won't ignore you. You just need to keep your story straight."

"Thank you, Du Zong." Li Shen was overjoyed.

"Du Zong, how are you?" Chen Yu smiled from the side. "I'm sending you a big gift. Don't worry, this is just the beginning. There will be more surprises waiting for you later. You better hold on tight and make sure you don't die."

"Chen Yu..." Du Feng said through gritted teeth, "Fine, you just wait."

Slap... Du Feng hung up the phone. After hanging up, Du Feng smashed his phone hard onto the ground and hissed, "Chen Yu, you've gone too far."

Immediately, he took out another phone and dialed a number: "He Zong, I want to take action."

"OK, do whatever you want, but while you're at it, clean up your own mess." An eerie voice came from the phone.

"No problem." Du Feng hung up the phone with a cold expression.

Inside the club, a team of police pushed the door open and entered, led by none other than Ren Zhenghao.

"Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat to the side. Take out your ID cards. Spot check," Ren Zhenghao barked.

Everyone in the club obediently squatted to the side, and the police began urine testing them.

"Officer, I am the person in charge of this club. We are operating normally and doing business legally." Li Shen couldn't care about his son anymore; he gritted his teeth and walked forward.

"Spot check. Whether it's legal or not will be decided after the inspection." Ren Zhenghao walked to Chen Yu's side. "Chen Yu, you'd better have direct evidence that there's a problem here, otherwise you're just wasting police resources."

"No problem. In the basement, there is a secret room in that direction. See for yourself what the people inside are doing," Chen Yu said calmly.

"Go check there." Ren Zhenghao waved his hand, and a team of police rushed over.

Li Shen's face changed drastically. The direction Chen Yu pointed to was exactly the private room where he sold drugs.

"Captain, they are gathering to use drugs inside, and we've discovered a new type of drug." A police officer returned a moment later, holding a bag of items.

"Search the place. Take all relevant responsible parties away." Li Shen's expression shifted slightly; there really was a problem here.

Click—handcuffs were placed on Li Shen's wrists. His face turned ashen: "I want to call my lawyer."

"Of course, that is your right. If it is confirmed that this is the truth, even your lawyer won't be able to save you." Ren Zhenghao glanced at him. "Clear out."

The police came quickly and left quickly. Spot checks were done, a large amount of contraband was found in the basement private room, a whole group of people tested positive in urine tests, the club was temporarily sealed, and the club's doors were tightly plastered with seal strips.

"Chen Yu, thank you for tonight." After stepping outside, He Chen said to Chen Yu with gratitude.

"Alright, why be so polite? We're all classmates." Chen Yu smiled slightly. "What are your plans for the future?"

"Divorce. I'm truly tired after all these years." He Chen shook his head. "I'll just take it as having met the wrong person."

"Alright, don't overthink it. It really was meeting the wrong person. Actually, you knew what she was like before, didn't you?" Chen Yu said.

"Yes, I knew, but I didn't expect her to become so much worse." He Chen sighed. "I originally thought I could change her, but now it seems I was just overthinking it."

"How could a person be easily changed by someone else?" Chen Yu shook his head. "Alright, you'll meet a good person in the future."

"But she wasn't like this before. Why did she become like this now?" He Chen couldn't quite figure it out.

"Human desire is a bottomless pit. Once it's opened, it can never be closed again." Chen Yu smiled. "Cao Jing was always a vain person by nature. After visiting high-end venues a few times and seeing a life of extravagance, she could never go back. This is just human nature, so you must try to let it go."

"Okay, I understand, Chen Yu." He Chen smiled. "I've already prepared most of the office furniture that Yan Zong needs. Don't worry about that; it definitely won't delay the company's opening."

"It's fine, I trust you." Chen Yu smiled. "Alright, go back. There are still many things for you to handle in the coming days."

"Okay." He Chen smiled slightly and turned to leave.

"Chen Yu." Just as Chen Yu was about to leave, he was called back by Ren Zhenghao.

"What is it, Captain Ren? Do you still need me to give a statement?" Chen Yu said speechlessly. "I'm a good citizen. I discovered people selling drugs here and reported it immediately, but now I'm getting into trouble myself after reporting it? That's not right!"
