Li Mengran erupted in laughter when Yang Chen threatened to slap her.
“I’m not trying to be condescending, but go ahead and try,” she challenged him, her arrogance dripping.
Li Xiaofei, equally incensed, stepped forward and slapped Li Mengran herself. “I’ll slap you today, so what? You’re always running your mouth about wanting to hit me. Well, here’s your chance. Let’s see who you can find to do it for you.”
Li Mengran’s boyfriend, Gao Mu, instantly raised his fist to strike Li Xiaofei, but Yang Chen intercepted him, seizing his wrist. Gao Mu struggled in vain, unable to break free.
The teacher supervising the meal card recharge station intervened, her voice laced with urgency. “Hey, hey, stop fighting! You’ve finally made it to college. It would be a tragedy to be expelled for fighting. Think of your parents; they’d be heartbroken. This is a lifelong matter; don’t ruin your future over a momentary impulse!”
Li Mengran retorted, her voice dripping with disdain, “I came to school to have fun. I don’t care about a diploma. I’m going home to inherit the family fortune after graduation. How dare she hit me? This isn’t over today! Gao Mu, call someone!”
Gao Mu nodded, his face contorted with anger. “Let me go!”
Yang Chen remained unfazed. “Beg me. Beg me, and I’ll let you go.”
Gao Mu sneered. “I’m Gao Mu, the vice president of the HLCC Supercar Club. You’re asking for a death wish.”
HLCC, short for Haicheng Local Car Club, boasted over 1,500 members, with the minimum requirement for entry being ownership of at least a Porsche 911 or a comparable sports car.
In essence, every member of this club was affluent, whether a second-generation heir to a fortune, a powerful figure, or a high-ranking company executive or chairman.
While seemingly impressive, HLCC, much like SCC [Sports Car Club], failed to capture Wang Nianming’s attention. In his younger days, Wang Nianming had famously taken on the entire SCC on Weibo [a Chinese microblogging website], single-handedly.
Yang Chen wasn’t about to take a group of nobodies that Wang Nianming wouldn’t even acknowledge seriously.
Gao Mu thrashed wildly, but Yang Chen’s grip remained unyielding. Forced to use his left hand, he retrieved his phone and dialed for backup.
Gao Mu spoke into the phone, his voice laced with urgency. “Hey, Qing-ge [an honorific, meaning “Brother Qing”], I’m being bullied at Haicheng University of Finance and Economics. Get your boys over here, quick!”
The Qing-ge Gao Mu referred to was Zhao Yunqing, the founder and chairman of the HLCC club.
In previous years, Zhao Yunqing had maintained a low profile, but since marrying a celebrity, he had become increasingly ostentatious, emulating Wang Nianming by criticizing and denouncing others online.
Currently, he was embroiled in a messy divorce with his celebrity wife. He accused her of infidelity, while she countered with allegations of him sleeping with young models and committing domestic violence. The situation was a full-blown war.
Zhao Yunqing responded instantly, his voice filled with indignation. “Damn, who is it? How dare they bully someone from our HLCC? We’re on our way. Tell them not to leave!”
Hanging up, Gao Mu turned to Yang Chen, a smug expression plastered across his face. “If you have any guts, don’t leave!”
Yang Chen shoved Gao Mu aside. “Okay, I’ll play along.”
With that, Yang Chen led Li Xiaofei to the window to recharge her meal card.
The teacher in charge of recharging reiterated her earlier warning. “Students, don’t be impulsive. You’ve finally made it to college. It would be a waste to be expelled for fighting.”
Yang Chen reassured her, “Thank you for the reminder, Auntie. We won’t fight. Don’t worry.”
The teacher, unconvinced, pressed further. “But you already slapped someone. Can this really just be dropped?”
Yang Chen remained firm. “She has a foul mouth and deserved it. Thank you, Auntie. We know what we’re doing. Please recharge our cards.”
Li Xiaofei handed over her meal card, and the teacher asked, “How much do you want to put on it?”
Yang Chen produced a card of his own and handed it to the teacher. “Recharge 30,000 [yuan, approx. $4,100 USD] first. That should be enough for her until graduation next year.”
The teacher’s eyes widened. “30,000? Young man, are you sure? This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone put 30,000 on a meal card.”
Li Xiaofei protested, “That’s way too much. I usually only recharge 1,000 [yuan, approx. $140 USD] at most.”
Yang Chen brushed aside her concerns. “You’re going to use it anyway, so just recharge 30,000.”
With eight months remaining until the end of June next year, 4,000 yuan [approx. $550 USD] a month wasn’t actually that extravagant.
The teacher complied, loading 30,000 yuan onto Li Xiaofei’s card.
Li Xiaofei then provided her dormitory number and swiped her card to pay her electricity bill.
With everything settled, the two turned to head to the car to wait.
Gao Mu and Li Mengran immediately blocked their path.
Li Mengran spat out, “Want to leave? No way! No one can help you today. If the dean dares to interfere, I won’t let them off either.”
Gao Mu added, his voice menacing, “You’re going to pay a heavy price for that slap.”
Yang Chen retorted, “We’re going to wait in the car. Do you think I’m like you, running away when things get tough?”
Yang Chen guided Li Xiaofei into the car.
Gao Mu and Li Mengran were further enraged to see that they were getting into a DiDi [Chinese ride-hailing app] car.
“Damn, a ride-hailing driver dares to be so arrogant. Xiaoran, don’t worry, I’ll make him kneel down and apologize to you today. I’ll let you slap them as many times as you want until you’re completely satisfied,” Gao Mu declared confidently.
Li Mengran chimed in, “I’ve also called my brother. I absolutely can’t let this slap go unpunished. Let’s go, block them so they can’t drive away.”
Gao Mu chuckled. “Hehe… the monk can run away, but the temple can’t. If the little driver runs away, the woman will have to come back to school, right?”
Li Mengran conceded, “That’s true.”
However, to be on the safe side, the two positioned themselves to block Yang Chen’s car from both the front and the back.
Just then, Wang Nianming called Yang Chen.
“Hey, Xiaoming, what’s up?” Yang Chen answered.
Wang Nianming exclaimed, “Chen-ge, you’re incredible! Baoli [a large corporation] has been completely subdued by you. Your globally-reaching rain bomb stunned me!”
Yang Chen chuckled. “Haha… keep a low profile, keep a low profile.”
Wang Nianming continued, “Chen-ge, where are you now? I just returned to Haicheng from Japan. Let’s grab a meal together.”
Yang Chen replied, “I’m at Haicheng University of Finance and Economics. I have something to take care of. I have to visit my aunt later. Let’s eat when you return to Beijing. Everything’s fine here. I’ll be back in Beijing tomorrow.”
Wang Nianming sounded disappointed. “Ah, so soon? Then I’ll come over now to meet you and say hello.”
Yang Chen demurred, “No need, no need.”
Wang Nianming insisted, “Why not? I’m coming over right away. It’s not far, only about twenty minutes away. Chen-ge, wait for me.”
Yang Chen explained, “No, it’s like this. My cousin is being bullied, and I’m here to help her sort it out. Don’t come.”
Wang Nianming declared, “Then I have to go even more! Chen-ge, wait for me!”
With that, Wang Nianming hung up.
Yang Chen sighed, feeling helpless. He hoped this kid wouldn’t escalate the situation.
Li Xiaofei inquired, “Who’s coming over?”
Yang Chen answered, “Wang Nianming.”
Li Xiaofei exclaimed, “Ah? You know him too?”
Yang Chen confirmed, “I know him.”
Li Xiaofei asked, “Oh, is he like the news online, changing girlfriends every day?”
Yang Chen chuckled. “It’s not as exaggerated as changing them every day, but he basically changes one about every month or so. Anyway, it doesn’t last long.”
About half an hour later, the roar of engines echoed from the school gate.
In a flash, a supercar convoy, led by a Koenigsegg [a Swedish manufacturer of high-performance sports cars], roared onto the campus.
From the gate to their location, both sides of the road were lined with sports cars.
The students, who had never witnessed such a spectacle, immediately pulled out their phones to capture the scene.
“Wow, this is the first time I’ve ever seen so many sports cars! Is that a Ferrari? Is that a Lamborghini?”
“What’s going on today? Why are there so many sports cars? Is it like in the news, where a rich second-generation is confessing his love to a school beauty? Who wouldn’t be swayed by this? Not just girls, even I, a guy, can’t resist!”
“Who is it for? Li Xiaofei or Li Mengran?”
“It can’t be Li Xiaofei. Her boyfriend is Yang Chen. Li Mengran is more likely. Freshmen are often targeted by rich second-generations. And everyone knows she’s a slut, flirting with everyone.”
…
Simultaneously, Wang Nianming arrived at Haicheng University of Finance and Economics in his BMW i8.
Seeing the cars parked on both sides of the road and the people emerging from them, Wang Nianming scoffed. “What are these hicks doing here? Chen-ge said someone was bullying his cousin. Could it be these bumpkins?”
Gao Mu, escorting Li Mengran, stepped forward to greet the supercar club members.
“Hello, Qing-ge, hello brothers. As long as you brothers help me vent this anger today, I’ll make arrangements tonight and make sure everyone has a great time,” Gao Mu announced loudly.
The crowd responded enthusiastically.
“Haha… isn’t that what brothers are for? To help out when needed?”
“That’s right! I want to see who doesn’t have eyes and dares to provoke our HLCC people!”
“Mu-ge, where is he? I want to see what kind of god he is that dares to provoke you.”
…
Gao Mu laughed and said, “I thought he was some big shot, but it turns out he’s just a ride-hailing driver.”
“Damn, a ride-hailing driver? Mu-ge, that’s not interesting. Can’t you handle a ride-hailing driver yourself?”
“I thought it was some big shot. What’s the point of messing with a ride-hailing driver? We don’t get any satisfaction from teaching a ride-hailing driver a lesson.”
“That’s right, it’s not interesting at all.”
…
Zhao Yunqing interjected, “Alright, we’re already here. Let’s just treat it as a street parade. Gao Mu will make the arrangements tonight.”
Gao Mu readily agreed. “No problem, no problem, I’ll make the arrangements tonight.”
Zhao Yunqing had mobilized a total of 100 members. After parking their cars, the others quickly gathered around him.
Adjusting his sunglasses, Zhao Yunqing led the charge towards Yang Chen, his entourage following in a show of force.
Putting everything else aside, the scene was undeniably cool, reminiscent of a Yakuza [Japanese organized crime syndicate] street brawl. Teenagers were particularly drawn to this kind of ostentatious display.
Yang Chen’s bodyguards swiftly moved to stand in front of his car.
At that moment, Wang Nianming began honking his horn incessantly, urging the HLCC members to clear the way.
“Damn! Why is Wang Nianming here too?”
“Did this guy find a new girlfriend here again?”
“Who knows? Just let him pass.”
…
Wang Nianming drove up to Zhao Yunqing, stopped his car, and demanded, “What are you hicks doing here? Are you so depraved that you’re preying on college students?”
Zhao Yunqing retorted, “Damn! Are you talking about yourself? What are you doing here?”
Wang Nianming replied, “I’m here to find Chen-ge. You bumpkins didn’t have a falling out with Chen-ge, did you? Haha…”
With that, Wang Nianming drove to Yang Chen’s car, jumped out, and rushed forward to greet him.
The surrounding students erupted in excitement.
“I’ll be damned, it’s Wang Nianming!”
“Oh my god, it really is him! Why is he here?”
“Did he find a new girlfriend at our school?”
“Who? The only ones who could catch his eye are Li Xiaofei and Li Mengran.”
…
Yang Chen opened the car door and stepped out with a smile, embracing Wang Nianming.
Wang Nianming asked, “Chen-ge, are these bumpkins here to cause trouble for you?”
Yang Chen replied, “Probably.”
Wang Nianming pressed, “They’re the ones who bullied your cousin?”
Yang Chen confirmed, “Yeah.”
Wang Nianming declared, “You relax, I’ll go deal with them.”
Yang Chen quickly grabbed Wang Nianming’s arm, saying, “No need, I can handle it myself.”
Wang Nianming protested, “Chen-ge, why are you being so polite with me?”
With that, Wang Nianming started towards the group, leaving Yang Chen no choice but to follow.
Some of the second-generation heirs behind Zhao Yunqing recognized Yang Chen.
“Qing-ge, I have something to do, I’ll leave first.”
“My ex-girlfriend is giving birth, I’m going to see if it’s mine.”
“I’ll go with you, I was also involved with her.”
“I’ll go too. I took care of her when you two weren’t around. It’s not certain whose child it is.”
…
Hmm?
Zhao Yunqing immediately stopped and demanded, “What are you guys doing? Are you messing around?”
One of them explained, “Qing-ge, it’s Yang Chen. Don’t drag us into this.”
“Ah? Which Yang Chen?” Zhao Yunqing asked, confused.
“Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense Group who launched the rain bomb yesterday. A few years ago, we were chased by him in a helicopter and armored vehicles. I’m still traumatized. He’s ruthless, sweeping with paintballs from the helicopter, not treating us like humans at all.”
Another chimed in, “Qing-ge, I advise you not to get involved. Be careful not to get burned.”
With that, those rich second-generation heirs who had experienced Yang Chen’s power firsthand quickly retreated to the sidelines.
What the hell? The team was falling apart before it even reached its destination.
When the others learned that it was Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense, they too were filled with apprehension.
Their fathers had repeatedly warned them that they could indulge in food, drink, and entertainment, but they must never touch drugs or provoke powerful figures that their families couldn’t handle.
It was clear that they were no match for Xingchen Defense, so it was best not to cause trouble for their families.
“Qing-ge, we don’t dare to go over there either.”
Seeing Wang Nianming, the desire to lash out was palpable.
However, they were powerless against Wang Nianming. Their family’s wealth couldn’t compare to his, and they couldn’t win an argument with him, so they could only feign ignorance.
Seeing Wang Nianming’s obsequious behavior towards Yang Chen, Zhao Yunqing realized that he couldn’t afford to offend Yang Chen, or the consequences would be dire.
There was no reason to sacrifice his family’s well-being for a member’s girlfriend, right?
“Chen-ge, hello, hello. I’ve long admired your name. Meeting you today, Chen-ge, you are indeed extraordinary. Nice to meet you. I’m Zhao Yunqing, the president of the HLCC Haicheng Supercar Club. I’m very lucky to meet Chen-ge. Please, take care of me,” Zhao Yunqing said, his tone suddenly polite.
Yang Chen asked, “Are you here to cause trouble for them?”
Zhao Yunqing quickly denied it. “Of course not. We’re just out for a street parade, looking for a place to park. Chen-ge, don’t misunderstand.”
Yang Chen warned, “Oh, that’s good. Stay away from them, to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and accidentally hurting you.”
Zhao Yunqing readily agreed. “Okay, okay.”
With that, Zhao Yunqing scurried away.
Gao Mu and Li Mengran were left looking utterly humiliated. The reinforcements they had summoned had turned into mere spectators.
Li Mengran complained, “What kind of trash is your supercar club? You always brag about how powerful they are, but is this it? Didn’t you say Zhao Yunqing’s parents are very influential? Why are they so scared, like mice?”
Gao Mu hissed, “Hey, keep your voice down. Didn’t you hear them say this is Yang Chen? Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense, the one who just broadcasted the purchase of rain bombs yesterday? Do you know the significance of his rain bomb? Baoli Group issued an apology that night, quickly restored all of Xingchen Entertainment’s works to normal playback, and took all the responsibility on themselves, even firing the group chairman and the subsidiary chairman, and promising never to rehire them. You should know that Yang Chen is not someone to mess with. Alas… how did we provoke him? Didn’t you know the identity of Li Xiaofei’s boyfriend?”
Li Mengran retorted, “I’ve heard that her boyfriend donated a building, but so what? Do I need to be afraid?”
Gao Mu countered, “But he’s the boss of Xingchen Defense.”
Li Mengran insisted, “So what? In Haicheng, I don’t need to be afraid of anyone, right?”
Wang Nianming looked at Gao Mu with disdain and said, “Gao Mu, your family’s business is precarious enough as it is. Don’t ruin it all. And your uncle finally made it to the city government; don’t jeopardize his career.”
Gao Mu swallowed hard and said, “Xiaoran, let’s just forget it. Let’s go.”
Li Mengran was stunned. She couldn’t believe those words had come from her boyfriend, Gao Mu.
“Gao Mu, are you kidding me? I was slapped by that bitch, and you’re telling me to forget it? You didn’t even try, and you’re giving up?” Li Mengran questioned, her voice laced with fury.
Gao Mu stammered, “But I don’t want to bring huge trouble to my family for you, right? Don’t think your family is anything special either. You know nothing about Xingchen Defense.”
Li Mengran spat out, “You dog man! I’m officially telling you now, I’m dumping you! Don’t come looking for me again, or I’ll kill you. Your girlfriend was slapped in front of you, and you’re so cowardly. Even if you tried and failed, I wouldn’t blame you. You gave up without even trying. What a waste!”
Gao Mu, thoroughly berated, couldn’t lift his head, remaining silent.
He knew that Li Mengran’s family was not to be trifled with, and there was no need to offend them.
Wang Nianming chimed in, “Haha… Gao Mu, your brain is still functioning normally. There are women everywhere. With your resources, what kind of woman can’t you find? There’s no need to ruin your family for a woman.”
Gao Mu remained silent, his head still bowed.
Li Mengran retorted angrily, “Wang Nianming, is this any of your business? Why are you nagging? Believe it or not, I have a way to make Yida’s [a large corporation] industry in Haicheng lose a layer of skin?”
Wang Nianming scoffed. “Haha… your brother can’t brag as much as you. Call your brother over; I’ll ask him if he dares to brag like that.”
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
At that moment, a Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up.
Li Mengran instantly recognized it as her brother, Li Menglong’s, car.
Li Mengran rushed over, crying, “Brother, I was attacked! Slapped in the face! You have to stand up for me! Wuwu…”
Li Menglong quickly got out of the car and asked with concern, “Who hit you?”
Li Mengran pointed at Li Xiaofei and said, “That bitch hit me!”
Li Menglong noticed several acquaintances and quickly walked over to greet them.
Zhao Yunqing and the others immediately stepped forward to greet Li Menglong.
By this point, an even larger crowd of students had gathered.
“I’ll be damned, another one is here! A Rolls-Royce Phantom, another big shot!”
“Did all the rich second-generation heirs of Haicheng come today? Girls, seize the opportunity and quickly add them as friends!”
“Aren’t you disgusting? These people are just playing around; don’t mislead other girls.”
“You’re wrong to say that. They’re just playing around when they date boys at school. Who can guarantee that they will definitely marry them? Since they might just be playing around anyway, why not be played by rich second-generation heirs instead of these loser college students? At least you can broaden your horizons, enjoy life, and get a breakup fee in the end. Dating loser college students, spending a little money is like taking their lives, and in the end, you get nothing after breaking up.”
“Damn! What you said seems to make sense. Hmm? There are really girls taking action!”
Sure enough, some bold girls were taking the initiative to add those cowardly rich second-generation heirs on the roadside as friends.
You have to seize life yourself, cherish the rare opportunity.
At that moment, the teachers from the dean’s office arrived.
Director Li spotted Yang Chen and quickly stepped forward to shake hands and greet him.
“Student Yang, you’re back! Why didn’t you inform the school? We could have given you a proper welcome,” Director Li said, his tone exceedingly polite.
Yang Chen replied, “I came to see Xiaofei; I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Director Li, I heard that this junior is usually very arrogant, saying everywhere that she wants to find someone to beat Xiaofei. Is there any truth to that?”
Director Li looked embarrassed and quickly explained, “Young people are just talking. Our dean’s office communicated with her as soon as possible, and she promised not to cause any trouble.”
Yang Chen pressed, “Is that so? Then why did she scold Xiaofei in front of me and say she wanted to hit her? I’ve donated so much to the school and solved the employment problems of so many graduates every year. Now you’re telling me that the school can’t even guarantee my girlfriend’s safety?”
Director Li quickly nodded and apologized. “Student Yang, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s true that our school’s efforts have fallen short. I apologize to you on behalf of the dean’s office. It’s also difficult for us to manage. Li Mengran’s father is the chairman of Haigang Group, her mother works in the Haicheng Investment Promotion Department, her uncle is the chairman of Haicheng Gas Group, her aunt is the deputy general manager of Haicheng Water Company, her grandfather is a retired old cadre, and her grandmother is the director of the City Investment Office. We can only communicate with her; there’s really nothing more we can do.”
It had to be said that Li Mengran’s family background was quite formidable in any city.
It was no wonder she was so arrogant; she had the backing to be.
Yang Chen remarked, “Oh, a fiefdom. No wonder they’re so arrogant.”
Li Mengran smiled disdainfully and said, “Then do you know what to do now? Kneel down!”
Wang Nianming immediately scolded, “Are you missing a screw? Go home and get a good education before coming out to mix in society. Li Menglong, is your dad aware that your sister is so arrogant?”
Li Menglong retorted, “Alright, just watch the show quietly. Can you stop talking nonsense?”
Wang Nianming scoffed. “Haha… I’m just a smart mouth; I feel uncomfortable if I don’t say a few words. What can you do to me?”
Li Menglong rolled his eyes at Wang Nianming and ignored him.
Director Li quickly said to Li Mengran, “Li Mengran, I’ve talked to you many times. Why don’t you listen?”
Li Mengran retorted, “How haven’t I listened? I haven’t found anyone to touch her yet. Isn’t that enough to give the school face?”
Director Li turned to Li Menglong. “Li Menglong, do you know this student Yang?”
Li Menglong shook his head.
Director Li explained, “He is Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense Group. Did you all watch the live broadcast yesterday? The artificial rain bomb launched by Xingchen Defense Group can bypass air defense systems and has versions with guided warheads and a range of 18,000 kilometers [approx. 11,000 miles]. You should understand what that means, right?”
The surrounding students were immediately awestruck.
“Wow, is Senior Yang Chen the boss of Xingchen Defense Group?”
“I’ll be damned, I watched the live broadcast all day yesterday, and I was amazed by the rain bomb produced by their company. Stealth, multiple warheads, globally reachable… if you didn’t say it was a rain bomb, I would have thought it was an intercontinental missile!”
“Senior Yang Chen actually owns such a company. So awesome!”
“Wow, that’s a needle-to-needle confrontation. Li Mengran’s family background is strong enough, but Senior Yang Chen’s own strength is not weak at all. How will this end today?”
Li Menglong gritted his teeth, calculating whether to concede and reconcile or to fight to the bitter end.
Director Li, sensing that the situation was beyond his control, quickly whispered to the teacher next to him to call the principal.
After a moment of internal struggle, Li Menglong chose reason.
Baoli Group had already admitted defeat, so how could the Li family dare to confront Yang Chen head-on?
“Chen-ge, I’m sorry. The child is ignorant; don’t take it to heart. Don’t worry, my sister will definitely not provoke your girlfriend again. Let’s end today’s matter here, okay?” Li Menglong said, his tone conciliatory.
Wang Nianming smiled, his expression disdainful.
Li Mengran turned to her brother in disbelief, exclaiming, “Brother, are you kidding me? I was slapped by that bitch! You’re saying today’s matter ends here? Are you even my brother?”
Li Menglong pleaded, “Little sister, listen to me, okay?”
Li Mengran retorted, “Impossible! I don’t care who he is; it’s absolutely impossible to just let this bitch slap me! If you don’t stand up for me, then call my dad over!”
Saying that, Li Mengran reached for her phone to call her dad, Li Chuxiong.
Li Menglong quickly stopped her, saying, “Don’t bother Dad, okay? Listen to me; forget it!”
Li Mengran roared, “Why forget it? I was slapped by this bitch, and you’re telling me to forget it! Will I ever be able to face anyone again?”
Yang Chen immediately pointed at Li Mengran and said, “You’ve said ‘bitch’ five times in such a short time. I can already imagine how arrogant you usually are. You want to just let it go, but I don’t agree. Call your dad over, immediately!”
Li Menglong stammered, “President Yang, you…”
“I said immediately!” Yang Chen roared.
The scene fell silent. Although hundreds, even thousands, of people were watching, there wasn’t a sound.
Li Menglong gritted his teeth, glared at his sister, and quickly called his dad.
Li Menglong spoke into the phone, “Hey, Dad, little sister has caused trouble. Come to Haicheng University of Finance and Economics quickly.”
Li Chuxiong asked, “What trouble did she cause again? Did she drink someone to death again?”
Li Menglong explained, “No, she provoked Yang Chen. Yang Chen, the boss of Xingchen Defense Group.”
Li Chuxiong exclaimed, “Ah? She… she… she… alas, how did she provoke Yang Chen? How would they even have any interaction?”
Li Menglong continued, “The girl she said she was going to hit before is Yang Chen’s girlfriend. They happened to meet today, and she scolded her in front of Yang Chen and said she was going to hit her, so she was slapped. I came over to reconcile, but little sister still called her a bitch, and Yang Chen got angry and told you to come over immediately. There are many people on the scene, and he definitely wants to save face. Come over quickly; I’ll try to stabilize the situation to prevent it from escalating.”
Li Chuxiong sighed, “Alas… that troublemaker. I told her every day not to cause trouble again, to be low-key and steady. Why doesn’t she listen? Now she’s poked a hole in the sky. You stabilize the situation; I’ll call your grandfather and them to come over together. Today, we may have to bet all the contacts and resources that our Li family has accumulated over the years.”
