Chapter 1067 - 1074: Don’t Leave Yet (Part 1)
Chapter 1067: Chapter 1074: Don’t Leave Yet (Part 1)
Bai Xingye’s face turned grim, not knowing what to do for a moment.
In his entire life, he almost never got into fights with others, and his personality was somewhat on the softer side.
This was actually one of the main reasons he was previously so easily deceived by Chen Bainan.
"Young man, aren’t you being a bit too arrogant in front of the elder!" The master who had been holding back finally couldn’t contain himself anymore.
He always looked down upon people like Liu Ge.
If you’re so capable, why don’t you directly pursue Bai Bing!
Not going directly after her, but instead trying to go through her brother; such a roundabout person is definitely not a good one in his eyes.
The crucial point was that upon learning Bai Bing had a man, he immediately changed his face.
The master hated people like this the most, so he spoke up.
Liu Ge glanced dismissively at Bai Xingye, then at the master, and snorted, "Old man, who are you?"
"How dare you speak to Young Master Liu like that!"
"Have you lived long enough and now you’re looking for death?"
You could say here, except for the owner of this venue and a few people in politics, he feared almost no one.
This old man in front of him, he had never seen, of course he wasn’t afraid.
If he was afraid, that would be a joke.
The master was really taken aback by Liu Ge’s words.
In his brother’s territory for so many years, to be honest, no one had dared to speak to him like that.
So now he was extremely angry.
Some onlookers nearby also gasped and looked towards the owner of the venue not far away, the old man whom the master had pointed to earlier.
This old man was called Wen Ming, his identity was mysterious, and few people knew his origins.
Some said he came from the capital.
Others said he came from a very powerful family.
Either way, one thing was certain, this man should not be provoked.
Even the Bai family or the Shangguan family wouldn’t dare to offend him.
Of course, they weren’t without backing, and it’s not like if Wen Ming bullied them, they would definitely not be afraid.
At their level of family status, they all had some kind of hidden power.
But this power would not come out unless in the most urgent situations.
Otherwise, in such a big city as Chuzhou City, they couldn’t become a top family merely with surface-level strength.
The Bai family, on the face of it, didn’t seem to have many people, only excelling in business.
But those who knew the Bai family well would know it had some connections with the Bai family in the capital.
The Bai family in the capital was a very powerful presence indeed.
In fact, even if Lin Xi didn’t help the Bai family, the Chen family probably wouldn’t be able to move against the Bai family in the end either.
It’s just that Master Bai didn’t lightly play his trump card, and what the capital Bai family thought, who knew?
At this moment, when everyone thought Wen Ming was going to step out, they found he remained silent.
The master also noticed his brother wasn’t showing any stance, and to be honest, he felt a bit lacking in confidence because his current status was all thanks to his brother.
"You little brat, do you know who I am?" Yet he wasn’t to be bullied easily.
Besides, he believed his brother wouldn’t just stand by and do nothing, at most he would lose some face at first.
"Ha!" Liu Ge sneered, "Old man, who are you, tell me!"
"If you can’t say anything meaningful and waste my time, I won’t be polite to you!"
The master was truly angered, "Alright, alright, alright!"
"Even if you don’t know me, you should know my brother, and I believe you’d definitely give my brother some face, and even apologize to me immediately!"
The crowd was silent.
Even Lin Xi was silent.
The master still lacked spine, relying on his brother.
But then again, considering his old age, it took a lot of courage to stand up.
Yet Wen Ming didn’t speak and instead intended to turn away and leave.
He found it boring and didn’t believe Liu Ge dared to harm his brother; as for a few taunts, he didn’t care.
However, just as he turned around, he heard Liu Ge arrogantly say, "Your brother?"
"Even if your brother comes, I can make him kneel, got it?"
"Old man, do you know who I am? My uncle is a big shot in Chuzhou, who wouldn’t give him face here?"
"And I’m wondering, is your brother really that impressive? Have him come over if you dare, I can not only make him kneel but also kowtow and apologize for having you as a conniving brother!"
At that moment, those who knew of the master and Wen Ming’s relationship were all somewhat alarmed.
Although he had only acted less than five times since his arrival in Chuzhou City for so many years, each time he crushed the opponents, who were all from incredibly formidable families.
Precisely because of this, he became famous.
At that time, almost all families in Chuzhou City were on edge, even contemplating forming an alliance to oppose this mysterious person.
But later they found that as long as you didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t interact with you, much less cause any conflict.
After realizing this, the top families felt much more at ease.
They even warned their family members not to provoke this person called Wen Ming.
Wen Ming halted upon hearing these words.
Honestly, ever since he had acted those five times, no one had ever said something like this to him.
Even if the person in front of him was ignorant and didn’t know who he was, facing so many people, his face was undeniably losing some light.
So, he turned around and walked towards Liu Ge.
In an instant, except for Liu Ge, who had his back turned to Wen Ming, almost everyone else fell silent.
"Call them, why aren’t you calling them now!" Liu Ge was also infuriated, so he didn’t notice the change in atmosphere and continued to laugh, "Scared?"
"Older people do fear the strong, and I bet your brother feels the same way."
Yes, speaking of which, he was too lazy to deal with this lot, he had to go back quickly to find out if Bai Xingye was talking nonsense.
Did his sister really have a man?
Honestly, he was a bit skeptical.
Especially since he thought Lin Xi didn’t seem particularly noteworthy.
Of course, if he hadn’t been so impatient now, he would definitely want to teach this man, be it Bai Bing’s man or not.
At this moment, Lin Xi appeared very composed, as if nothing had happened, but if one looked carefully into his eyes, they would occasionally catch a glimpse of a dangerous glint.
Just as he was about to leave, a voice devoid of joy or sorrow sounded from behind, "Liu Ge, right!"
"Don’t go yet!"
"Explain to me clearly, did you just say his brother is cowardly and would kneel to you?"
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the entire hall became tenfold more intense than before.
No matter how careless Liu Ge was, he realized something was wrong at this point. Besides, he found that voice devoid of joy or sorrow somewhat familiar and made him shiver all over.
When he turned around and took a look, he was stunned.
Then his face forcibly showed a smile, and in a soft tone, he tentatively asked, "Master Wen, what did you mean by that?"
"Mean, just what it literally means!" Wen Ming replied, but this time everyone could clearly feel a hint of coldness in his tone.
This almost scared Liu Ge to the point of wetting himself, he suddenly had a bad premonition, particularly noticing the way others were looking at him as if he were a fool.
