"Brother Dong, you're impressive. But what about Zhu Shao? Will he be okay?"
"I don't know about that. I think until things become clearer, we should keep our distance from Zhu Shao to avoid getting dragged into any trouble," Dong Mingshui replied.
"That's true, that's true," the young masters chimed in, their agreement reflecting their tendency to scatter like monkeys when a tree falls.
After Zhu Xiangyue and his lawyer were escorted out, they continued to struggle. However, when Shi Hao pulled out his credentials and revealed his identity, Zhu Xiangyue and his lawyer were left dumbfounded.
Oh no, that old man is a General! Does that mean the kid named Jiang is actually friends with a General?
"Even if Mr. Jiang has connections in the military, he can't just hit people like that. Our chairman has been beaten up like this; everyone is equal before the law," the lawyer couldn't help but say.
Shi Hao smiled coldly.
"By the way, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you. The Mr. Jiang you mentioned is actually Major General Jiang. If you want to sue him, you can't just follow the usual procedures; you'll need to submit your lawyer's letter to the General Headquarters. We'll handle it from there," Shi Hao said.
"Wait, Major General Jiang? He... he's Major General Jiang?" The lawyer was taken aback. He had never handled a case against such a high-ranking official, and from Shi Hao's attitude, it was clear that even if they pursued legal action, they stood no chance of winning.
"What should we do, Chairman? Should we still file a lawsuit?" The lawyer looked at Zhu Xiangyue.
Although Zhu Xiangyue felt indignant and wanted revenge, he also realized that pursuing this matter further would be detrimental to him. The Zhu Family, despite being a prominent family, lacked some depth in Huaxia and could not afford to offend certain influential figures.
Zhu Xiangyue shook his head, indicating that they should let it go. He decided to take it as a silent loss. Moreover, a gentleman's revenge is best served after ten years; enduring for now was a strategy for future rise. Zhu Xiangyue comforted himself with these thoughts.
At the same time, he grew wary of Yue Hui; he hadn't expected Yue Hui to have such powerful backing and realized he needed to be more cautious in the future.
Inside the club, Jiang Chen and Zeng Xianyi walked and chatted as they entered the auction venue. The venue was quite large, divided into two levels with ten private rooms on either side of the second floor. Only those with powerful backgrounds could enter these rooms.
Yue Hui had one room, and Zeng Xianyi had another.
"Mr. Jiang, why don't you come sit with me? I have something I want to discuss with you," Zeng Xianyi smiled.
"Xiao Chen, go chat with Zeng Lao for a bit; we can stay here with Miss Yue," Zhou Rongli said wisely.
Jiang Chen nodded and entered the private room with Zeng Xianyi.
Zhou Rongli and the others went into Yue Hui's room.
"Zeng Lao, what is it?" Jiang Chen asked directly upon entering the room.
"Mr. Jiang, you're just in time. Among Li Huan Guo's collection is an extraordinary landscape painting that captivates anyone who observes it. I've been drawn in several times; however, each time I see a Taoist temple in the painting, I'm frightened away by the divine beast outside of it. This time you're here; you can surely unravel the mystery of this landscape painting. I'll bid on it and gift it to you," Zeng Xianyi said.
"Zeng Lao, there's no need for you to spend so much. As long as it's truly a good item, I will naturally bid for it," Jiang Chen said with a smile. It seemed that this visit was indeed worthwhile, as Li Huan Guo had collected quite a number of valuable items.
