Chapter 436: Calling Someone to Regain Face
Seeing Shao Bo kneel, Lin Yang merely gave him a cold glance.
Then, he ignored him.
Seeing this, Shao Bo steeled himself and began slapping his own face.
"I have eyes but fail to recognize Mount Tai; please forgive me!"
"I have eyes but lack insight; I have offended you."
Seeing Shao Bo's face red from slapping, Xiao Yufan finally took their classmate bond into account.
She said: "Mr. Lin..."
Lin Yang then slowly said.
"Since Yufan has spoken, let this matter pass like this."
"Get up."
After Shao Bo got up, Lin Yang looked at the slap marks on his face and said with a smile.
"Why are you so hard on yourself? Your face is all red."
Upon hearing that, Shao Bo's blood pressure rose a bit.
But he still suppressed his anger, forced a smile and said.
"I bumped into myself; it's not a big deal."
Lin Yang said with an expression of sudden realization: "Oh, it was you who bumped yourself; then it's fine."
"It doesn't affect everyone's meal."
Upon hearing that, Shao Bo forced a smile and said.
"No need to trouble you for expense; I came from Modu by cruise ship, I'm a bit tired."
"I'll just rest for today."
"When I have free time someday, I will definitely treat you."
Upon hearing that, Lin Yang looked at him with a half-smile and said.
"Sure, then I'll wait for you."
As Shao Bo just rose, Sun Yunyun and the others also stood up to take their leave.
Now they, facing Lin Yang, no longer had their previous aloof superiority.
Some were left only with embarrassment.
So they wanted to escape as quickly as possible.
Xiao Yufan tried to persuade them to stay for a while, but couldn't keep them.
So they had to open four rooms at the Jinling Hotel.
After they had all checked in, Xiao Yufan stuck out her tongue, looking at Lin Yang with a hint of apology.
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry; I didn't know they would target you like this."
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have brought you here."
Seeing Xiao Yufan's apologetic expression, Lin Yang smiled and said.
"It's fine; I didn't suffer any loss."
Upon hearing that, Xiao Yufan puffed out a laugh.
"That Shao Bo, showing off in front of Lin Yang, isn't that just sticking out his face waiting to be slapped?"
She laughed and said: "Let's head back first."
After Lin Yang and his group left, Sun Yunyun and the others gathered in Shao Bo's suite.
Shao Bo's face darkened, and he said to Sun Yunyun and the others.
"I, Shao Bo, am also a prominent figure in Modu."
"I can't be bullied in this small place of Jinling!"
"Even if I've crossed the river, I'm still a river-crossing dragon!"
Upon hearing that, Sun Yunyun frowned slightly and asked.
"Then what do you plan to do?"
"Let me tell you, he is a Xuánmén Person, and his cultivation level is not low."
"You, fighting alone, are no match for him."
Upon hearing Sun Yunyun's words, Shao Bo snorted coldly and said.
"Who would go fight him? That would be so crude!"
"I'll spend money to hire someone to deal with him; he's a Xuánmén Person, so I'll spend money to get the Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association to handle him!"
Beside him, Cheng Qian said: "I happen to know some local thugs in Jinling!"
"I'll contact them now; later I'll bring you to find a Xuánmén Person."
"We Modu folks, when out and about, cannot be bullied."
Cheng Qian's words made Sun Yunyun and the others nod.
"Then it's settled; tomorrow we'll contact that kid to regain face for our Modu people."
After some contact, Cheng Qian said to Shao Bo.
"I've already made contact, though the price is a bit high."
Shao Bo said: "Just tell me the price."
"Ten million; he can help contact a Xuánmén Person, and even summon someone from the Heavenly Martial Hall."
Shao Bo, who originally thought the price was a bit high, upon hearing that the Heavenly Martial Hall people could also come, immediately said.
"Alright, let's settle it like that!"
Damn it, once the Heavenly Martial Hall people arrive too, I'll see how that kid does Showing Off against me!
After everyone dispersed, Shaobo raised a glass of red wine, a smile appearing on his face.
I'll see how long you can keep Showing Off!
The next day, Xiao Yufan found Lin Yang.
Mr. Lin, Shaobo and them said they'd like to treat the two of us to a meal—do you want to go?
Lin Yang, upon hearing that, immediately nodded and said.
Go, why not go? The other side is treating us to a meal.
Besides, as a private equity manager, you surely aren't short of money, so the place they pick won't be too bad either.
Seeing Lin Yang's confident smile, Xiao Yufan also smiled and said.
Alright, I'll get back to him right away.
In Shaobo's room, upon learning that Lin Yang had agreed, he was overjoyed.
Sun Yunyun also laughed: 'That guy named Lin Yang probably doesn't realize you've summoned both the Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association and the Heavenly Martial Hall people together, does he?'
Today, I'll definitely give him a taste of his own medicine.
Shaobo, wearing a silver suit, adjusted his collar.
He turned his gaze to Cheng Qian and asked.
Old Cheng, when will they arrive?
Cheng Qian laughed: 'They're already in the private room; let's go see them.'
Good!
The four arrived at the private room, where eight people were already seated at the table.
Aside from the two people in their twenties, the rest were in their thirties or forties.
After Cheng Qian entered, a man in casual attire with his hair spiked up in a side-swept bang waved at him.
'Brother Qian, you've come.'
Cheng Qian gave a slight smile and introduced him to Shaobo.
'This is Wang Yu; his family is in real estate, and I heard he's been doing very well in Jinling lately.'
Wang Yu, hearing that, gave a hehe laugh and said.
'No matter how impressive my family is, it can't compare to the families of you all from Modu.'
'Besides, my family is just enjoying the shade under a big tree.'
Cheng Qian laughed: 'You really are modest.'
'Now there are rumors that your Wang family will become a first-rate family in Jinling.'
Wang Yu gave a proud smile and said.
'It's all thanks to that benefactor.'
No matter whether it was the Heavenly Martial Hall or Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association people, upon hearing that they instantly thought of Lin Yang.
Among those who could come this time, there were also elders.
Being summoned, aside from money, it's because the Wang family is currently a rising star in Lin Yang's eyes, and they want to get on his good side.
Cheng Qian, hearing that, said somewhat surprised.
'Your Wang family still relies on a benefactor; I'm curious—who exactly is the person who's pulling strings for your Wang family?'
Wang Yu said: 'Actually, I've never met him in person; I've only seen some photos.'
'When I get the chance, I'll have my dad introduce you to him.'
Cheng Qian laughed: 'Then it's settled.'
As soon as his words fell, Wang Yu pointed at the oldest, tallest man with a scar on his face and said.
'This is Elder Ma Jue of the Heavenly Martial Hall.'
Then he pointed to another man of similar age, somewhat thin, wearing an overcoat, bald-headed.
'This is Elder Zhang Dong of the Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association.'
After that, he introduced the others.
After the introductions were finished, Shaobo stood up and said.
'Everyone, after you take care of that arrogant guy later, I'll give the elders an extra bonus of 500,000, and the rest 100,000 each.'
Upon hearing Shaobo's words, Ma Jue and Zhang Dong exchanged a smile.
This time, they've come to the right place.
Ma Jue raised a cup of wine, stood up, and said.
'Brother, the thing I, Ma Jue, have hated most in my life is people with their eyes on top of their heads.'
'Later, I'll naturally not show him any mercy!'
