"Yes, didn't I just say I'd be out in a bit? I can't go back on my word. I don't have a car, so I'm planning to walk back. What? Master Wan is waiting here for me, planning to give me a ride in your luxury car?" Jiang Chen was in a good mood and even joked.
Damn, how did this kid come to such a hotel without a car?
"Give you a ride? If you want to go to the afterlife, I'd be more than happy to take you there!" Master Wan felt his anger rising as he saw Jiang Chen so calm.
"That's too bad! I have no plans to go to the afterlife, so you've lost your chance to give me a ride!" Jiang Chen shrugged helplessly.
"Young master, stop wasting time with him! Teach him a lesson and let’s get back to rest early! You give us some space!" One of the bodyguards was getting impatient.
"Alright, you two can go ahead! Just don’t kill him; just make sure he ends up in the hospital for some rest!" A sly smile appeared at the corner of Master Wan's mouth.
With their master's order given, the two bodyguards immediately charged at Jiang Chen. They didn’t use all their strength, fearing that Jiang Chen wouldn’t be able to handle it; after all, they couldn’t kill him!
Meanwhile, Master Wan stood with his arms crossed, watching leisurely, imagining whether he should spare Jiang Chen when he begged for mercy!
However, he suddenly realized that his two bodyguards were gone! There was a "thud," and he heard someone fall behind him.
Turning around in shock, Master Wan was horrified to see his two bodyguards sprawled on the ground several meters away, groaning as if they couldn't even get up.
These two bodyguards had been specially trained and had never been knocked down before; it had cost a lot to select them.
How could such capable individuals lose so badly in front of a mere kid?
Master Wan turned back around and saw Jiang Chen approaching as if nothing had happened.
He unconsciously began to retreat repeatedly before quickly turning to run.
But it was too late. Master Wan felt a blow to his back; an immense force pushed him forward, causing him to crash heavily onto the ground right between the two bodyguards. Pain shot through his waist, and he couldn’t get up at all.
Jiang Chen thought for a moment before disappearing from sight.
……
In a certain ward of Nangang Hospital, an elderly man was furious.
"Freeloader! You two couldn't even protect the young master; what use do I have for you?" The old man scolded the two bodyguards.
"Master Wan, calm down! Rong and Bing were ambushed. It was nighttime, so they weren’t prepared!" A young muscular man beside him pleaded on their behalf.
The two bodyguards didn’t dare mention that their opponent was just a high school student; that would only make them look worse!
"With your skills, how could you let someone ambush you so easily?" The old man seemed perplexed.
Rong and Bing hung their heads as they stood there taking the reprimand. Although they were injured, it was just minor wounds; some ointment would suffice. Jiang Chen hadn’t harmed their bones.
Master Wan was not so lucky; several of his ribs were broken, and he lay in the hospital bed groaning, "Ouch, ouch."
"Stupid boy, did you cause trouble again today?" the old man asked the patient in the bed.
"Dad, I really didn’t cause any trouble today! I was hit from behind for no reason!" Master Wan dared not tell the truth. He had already discussed a cover story with his two bodyguards before his father arrived, insisting they had been ambushed by men in black.
"In that case, you must have offended someone recently," the old man said.
Master Wan feigned deep thought and then shook his head. "No, I've been very well-behaved lately."
"If you can behave yourself, then I can rest easy!" It seemed that no one knew a son better than his father.
Suddenly, the old man remembered something and asked, "Was it at the Chamber of Commerce Grand Hotel tonight?"
"Yes."
The old man took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Old Qin, sorry to disturb you so late! My ungrateful son was injured tonight at your Chamber of Commerce Grand Hotel. Could you help me find out who did this?"
"Master Wan, I’ve already looked into your son’s situation. He was injured after leaving the hotel. Our staff didn’t know what happened! However, when they heard the ambulance sirens, our security went to check and found out it was your son who was hurt. How about I have the hotel cover your son's medical expenses?" Old Qin thought to himself that it was clear as day—Master Wan had brought two bodyguards and they were all injured. Who else could have done this but Jiang Chen?
"That won’t be necessary; absolutely not, thank you!"
After hanging up, the old man took a deep breath. "Who cares about that little bit of medical expense? I just want to find out who ambushed him. Since it didn’t happen in the hotel, it wouldn’t make sense to ask them for information."
He only dared to speak behind their backs.
"What? You were attacked outside?" The old man looked again at Rong and Bing.
"Yes."
"But weren’t you in the car? How could they ambush you?" The old man felt puzzled.
"The young master said to get out for a walk!" The two continued with their prearranged story.
The old man didn’t linger any longer and left the hospital room, with the burly man following closely behind him.
In the corridor, they ran into Jiang Guangming, who was visiting his son Jiang Liang.
"Master Wan, what brings you here?" Jiang Guangming quickly greeted the old man upon seeing him.
"Sigh... my ungrateful son doesn’t know who attacked him today! By the way, Xiao Jiang, why are you still at the hospital so late?"
"My son is also injured. Sigh... young people have such hot tempers; they resort to violence over trivial matters. The brawl mentioned in yesterday's newspaper refers to them," Jiang Guangming sighed as well.
"Oh, isn't your Xiao Liang quite skilled?" the old man was surprised.
"There was no warning! It was all his Underlings, who would have thought they would act?" Jiang Guangming naturally did not dare to tell the truth.
Would the old man believe him? Before plotting against Yang Jun, he had thoroughly understood the situation at home.
"What's going on with your Taiping Apparel Company lately? Why hasn't Dongsheng Company taken over yet?"
The concerns that Jiang Guangming feared finally surfaced; the old man had asked about the company's situation.
"Recently, the company has encountered some issues; someone is messing with us. The matter with Dongsheng Company is being handled by Lin Shihui, and I don't know why he can't even deal with a little kid!" Jiang Guangming shifted the blame to Lin Shihui, which was indeed factual.
"Hmph! I don't care who's messing with you. When the time comes, these clothing companies won't be able to survive, and both you and Lin Shihui can come to the hospital to rest!" After finishing his words, the old man left.
Jiang Guangming felt a chill run down his spine!
After several consecutive drops in Taiping Apparel stock, they were ordered to delist, and the company was forced to shut down.
Employees couldn't get their salaries, and Lin Shihui and Jiang Guangming told them to take a few sets of clothes home; how could they wear so many clothes? Eating every day was more important. The employees continued to demand money from Lin Shihui and Jiang Guangming.
The two began to hide everywhere.
Because of Yang Jun's death, Lin Shihui knew that Jiang Chen would not let him off; he became increasingly anxious and restless.
