Chapter 48: Everyone, Leave Now
Dragon Aotian stared at the irate Iron Lump King, thinking to himself, “I’ve taught you this clearly, yet you still don’t understand? What are you so angry about?”
Gritting his teeth, Dragon Aotian said, “You’ve got the wrong person!”
Lu Chengwen quickly interjected, “Mr. Iron, I’m not one for idle chatter. If this is going to waste time, let’s cut to the chase. Can we sign the contract today or not? Give me a straight answer.”
“Yes! Yes, yes, yes!” the Iron Lump King immediately replied. “Signing and payment all in one go—I’m all about efficiency.”
Dragon Aotian was about to explode. “What do you mean yes? Do you even understand what’s going on?”
The Iron Lump King flew into a rage. “Get lost! I’ve put up with you long enough!”
Dragon Aotian’s eyes widened in disbelief. How dare the Iron Lump King of some Northern branch speak to him like that!
“What did you say? Say that again.”
The Iron Lump King struggled to suppress his fury. Grabbing Dragon Aotian by the collar, he lowered his voice. “Kid, I’m here on a mission. If I weren’t trying to help our young master put on a civilized, businessman front, I’d have dragged you out and beaten you for thirty minutes already!”
“You damn…”
“I warn you, my young master is a prodigy, a peerless hero. Just look at him!”
The Iron Lump King pinched Dragon Aotian’s chin and turned to Lu Chengwen.
“My young master is charming and debonair, a paragon of grace and charisma, surrounded by beauties and enjoying the blessings of many. Now look at you!”
He spat in disgust. “You? You look like you were raised by wolves and dogs, reeking of poverty. And you’re supposedly the vice president of Qianfeng Group? Even the big boss over there is fluttering around my young master like a lovesick bird. How dare you go against him repeatedly?”
“I…”
“If you know what’s good for you, you’ll obediently be my young master’s lackey. Maybe then you’ll be of some use. Keep acting cocky, and I’ll kick you to death!”
Dragon Aotian trembled all over with anger.
“Hey, you damn…”
The Iron Lump King shouted, “Get out of my sight!”
Unable to hold back any longer, Dragon Aotian roared, “Open your filthy eyes and see clearly! Damn it, I am your young master!”
The Iron Lump King paused, glancing at Lu Chengwen.
Lu Chengwen was inwardly panicked but outwardly nonchalant, reclining with his eyes closed.
Leng Qingqiu was massaging Lu Chengwen’s thigh, while Xu Xuejiao plucked a grape from the fruit plate and fed it to him, and Lu Chengwen didn’t even bother to open his eyes.
The Iron Lump King laughed. “Kid, if you’re going to impersonate a big shot, at least take a good look in the mirror. Look at yourself—still claim to be my young master?”
He pointed at Lu Chengwen. “See that? That’s a real young master! Flanked by beauties, effortlessly showing off—that’s the essence of a young master. You? Go home and eat dirt.”
Dragon Aotian clutched his chest. “You… damn it… can’t you tell he doesn’t know any real skills?”
“That’s my young master’s tactic! Pretending to be weak on purpose. If he wanted to strike, he’d crush you to dust in seconds. Dust, got it?”
“He looks like a spoiled rich brat, a useless playboy without a clue…”
“That’s just my young master’s disguise! You wouldn’t understand such artistry since you’re a worthless nobody! Showing off is an art, a profound science. The more formidable the person, the more they act unconventional and carefree, playing the world with contempt and fickleness. Look at you, all worked up over some trivial nonsense like you’re bursting with two tons of urine. Do you really think you can impersonate my young master?”
“Hey, you…”
They were now openly declaring their identities.
Meanwhile, Leng Qingqiu had completely seen through Dragon Aotian’s true nature.
He had gone to great lengths to seize the Leng family, deceiving her father into believing he could pull in a consortium investment with a mere one percent interest on fifty billion.
Anyone who has dealt with investments knows that such a low interest rate on that sum is practically a loss!
It’s like handing over fifty billion to someone else to make a fortune while you sit back and watch.
Who in the world would be that foolish?
Her father actually believed such a person—a clear sign of desperation and losing his senses.
Chengwen knows everything. Without him, she might never have realized just how treacherous Dragon Aotian really was.
---
Xu Xuejiao muttered to herself, “This guy is so devious! He’s pretending to be a big investor from outside the organization just to gain face.”
That made sense—only by posing as an investor could he gain the Leng family’s trust. On the surface, it’s just a business deal, but in reality, he covets the Leng family’s trillion-yuan empire.
Invest fifty billion to gain control over Qianfeng Group, then gradually swallow up the entire Leng family’s assets.
This man is both cunning and well-connected. Chengwen’s caution is justified; we must be extremely careful.
Lu Chengwen didn’t want to drag this out any longer—he needed to end things quickly.
“Mr. Iron, is this ever going to end? How long are you going to keep talking to him? Did I send you here to chat with fools?”
The Iron Lump King quickly replied, “Sorry, Mr. Lu, we’ll sign the contract right away.”
Lu Chengwen stood up. “Tomorrow morning, go to Dasheng Group and sign the contract with my general manager yourself. Don’t waste my time.”
He started to leave.
The Iron Lump King hurried after him. “Okay, okay, sorry to keep you. Please, take your time, Mr. Lu, slow down…”
Dragon Aotian thought to himself, luckily they don’t have the contract ready here; otherwise, this fifty billion would be sunk.
He pointed at the Iron Lump King. “You’re good, yeah, you’re amazing!”
The Iron Lump King glared at Dragon Aotian. “Long, you’re on my list now. I promise you won’t survive past the end of this month. Let’s see.”
…
As soon as Lu Chengwen got into the car, he urged the driver, “Hurry, hurry, hurry!”
The car sped away.
Lu Chengwen exhaled in relief, constantly looking back to see if they were chasing.
Xu Xuejiao smiled. “Chengwen, did you enjoy yourself just now? Two beautiful ladies serving you—feeling good, huh?”
Lu Chengwen looked at her. “Have you lost your mind? Didn’t you see how dangerous it was? That Dragon Aotian is a menace, and the Iron Lump King and those four big guys are killers who don’t blink. What comfort are you talking about?”
Leng Qingqiu said solemnly, “Lu Chengwen, even if it was an act, you and Xu Xuejiao went too far. Was it really necessary? Be honest, were you secretly enjoying it?”
Lu Chengwen stared at Leng Qingqiu in shock. “That’s all you care about!?”
At that moment, Xu Xuejiao climbed to the front seat and plugged a USB-like device into the port.
She crawled over the armrest, still wearing her JK uniform—the short school skirt revealing her round, firm hips and even white underwear…
Lu Chengwen stared entranced at the view beneath Xu Xuejiao’s skirt, mumbling mechanically, “I’m working, no time for thoughts like that. It’s all just acting; I’m not serious…”
Leng Qingqiu grabbed Lu Chengwen’s chin and turned him to face her. “What are you looking at?!”
“Ah?!” Lu Chengwen snapped out of it. “No, I’m not peeking at Xu Xuejiao’s white panties.”
Xu Xuejiao had already crawled back and told the driver, “Turn on the multimedia system.”
Blushing, she shot Lu Chengwen a glare, who was embarrassed and quickly explained, “I didn’t look at anything… just a little bit, it wasn’t intentional… just the angle at that moment…”
“Alright, listen up.”
The multimedia system crackled to life, playing a conversation between Dragon Aotian and Hua Xuening.
“That idiot!” Dragon Aotian’s angry voice came through. “Can’t even tell who’s master and still dares to insult me!”
Hua Xuening replied calmly, “I can eliminate him, avenge the young master.”
“What good would that do? I need the money in his hands—the fifty billion!”
Hua Xuening said, “I’ll retrieve it for the young master.”
Dragon Aotian was frustrated. “If I wanted to seize it by force, would I bother with all this? I need him to cooperate willingly so I can show off in front of Leng Tianhao! Only then can I replace Leng Qingqiu, become the president of Qianfeng Group, and swallow up the entire Leng family assets!”
Hua Xuening said, “It’s just the Leng family; why go to such lengths? We can just apply some pressure and…”
Dragon Aotian laughed bitterly. “Xuening, you’re a sword prodigy, but this isn’t so simple. Not everything can be crushed by force like in martial arts.”
“I want a complete, well-run Qianfeng Group. I want the Leng family to worship me completely, willingly becoming my consortium. Only then can I let go and have them diligently make money for me, backing my funds. I can seize it by force, but then who manages Qianfeng later, you or me?”
“And Leng Qingqiu is mine! She has to be! Such a stunning beauty can’t fall into anyone else’s hands! As long as Leng Qingqiu is devoted to me, controlling her means controlling the entire Qianfeng Group.”
Hua Xuening sighed. “I don’t understand these matters. IfI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
