Jiangnan sat with his legs crossed on the chair!
Not flustered at all!
He looked at Feng Changqing’s freshly bald head with satisfaction!
Tch, satisfying!
Feng Changqing gritted his teeth, “Deal with me? Who gave you the right to deal with me?”
“You think making a phone call scares me? Who can’t bluff?”
“Today, you’ll sign this contract whether you like it or not!”
Jiangnan squinted, “I didn’t come here today to give anyone face!”
“The premise of a deal is mutual respect!”
“Heh, you probably won’t get diabetes again in this lifetime!”
Just then, the phone rang!
Feng Changqing saw the caller ID, and his heart sank!
Kyoto Spirit Martial Association Headquarters! President Chen!
“Hey, President Chen, so late, why are you…”
“You’re sacked. Prepare for an investigation by the legal authorities!”
*Beep beep beep*
Just one sentence!
It turned Feng Changqing’s face ghostly pale!
How could this be!
How could this happen!
In just a few minutes, how could he be sacked?
He frantically called back! But it was rejected every time!
Sweat poured down Feng Changqing’s face, and he swallowed hard!
An investigation? He’d be done for!
It wouldn’t just be a few years inside!
At that moment, Luo Bei’s phone rang too!
“Bad news, Boss Luo! Seven of our wholly-owned subsidiaries have been sealed! They say the accounts don’t add up! They’re launching a deep investigation!”
“The pharmaceutical plant, the steel plant, they’ve been shut down too! All the issues came up at once!”
“What do we do? Many projects are ongoing! The penalty for delays will be massive!”
“Boss Luo? Did you offend someone?”
Luo Bei took a deep breath, looking at Jiangnan with sheer horror!
His subsidiaries couldn’t withstand scrutiny!
Who doesn’t have some dirty laundry?
This efficiency! This intensity!
No doubt about it!
It was an order from above, utterly resolute!
In just a few minutes, everything came crashing down!
The vice-president of the Spirit Martial Association sacked! His company under investigation!
Feng Changqing was finished! Luo Bei couldn’t even fathom his losses!
This wasn’t just a matter of a few billion!
It was clear!
The power behind Jiangnan was immense!
An ordinary Dark Night Army member?
To hell with that!
If he were ordinary, why would his data be encrypted?
And all this, just because of one phone call from Jiangnan!
[Resentment value from Luo Bei +1000!]
[Resentment value from Feng Changqing +1000!]
Feng Changqing kept calling friends, hands trembling!
But no one dared take his call!
It was like he’d been thrown from the clouds into the mud!
“Why can’t I get through? Phones out of credit? Want me to top it up for you?”
Feng Changqing roared, “Don’t get too cocky! If I’m done, you won’t have it easy either!”
Just then!
*Bang!*
The door to the private room was kicked open!
An old man in pyjamas rushed in?
White eyebrows, white hair! Sporting a goatee!
Wearing a conical nightcap with a fluffy white pom-pom on top?
Feng Changqing was stunned.
“President Shen? Why are you…”
Shen Hong grabbed Feng Changqing by the collar!
He slapped him hard across the face!
Two bloody teeth flew out, and Feng Changqing was dazed!
Why are you hitting me?
But Shen Hong wasn’t satisfied, grabbing a nearby plate and smashing it on Feng Changqing’s head!
Blood streamed down!
Then he pounded his face with fists!
Feng Changqing: !!!
Luo Bei swallowed hard. He knew this old man!
President of Jiang City Spirit Martial Association! The top dog!
Usually kind and approachable, but today, so explosive?
Gao Yuanshan and the others paled!
Jiangnan was stunned too! Where did this old man come from!
So old, yet so vigorous?
Shen Hong cursed as he beat him!
“You brainless fat pig, are you mental?”
“Never enough money, huh? I was woken up by a scolding from above, you know?”
“Who the hell do you think you can mess with? Jiangnan?”
“Do you know the Dark Night Army’s Sword-Drawing Operation a while back was to protect who?”
“How many people were lost? And you dare touch him? Even trying to block his access?”
“Even President Chen at headquarters doesn’t have that authority! Who gave you the balls?”
He kicked Feng Changqing to the ground, pummeling him!
All the food on the table was dumped on him!
Jiangnan: …
Is this necessary?
I haven’t even had dinner yet, at least leave a plate!
Beaten to the point of questioning life, bloodied Feng Changqing was truly panicked!
The Dark Night Army’s Sword-Drawing Operation was massive!
It shocked the world!
And it was just to protect Jiangnan?
Feng Changqing was genuinely terrified!
This time, he hit a steel wall. A colossal disaster!
Feng Changqing, teary-faced, pleaded, “President, I was wrong! Help me! Please help me!”
“Brother Nan! Master Nan! Let me off this time! I beg you, I shouldn’t have…”
Jiangnan just watched calmly, saying nothing.
Shen Hong roared, “Rubbish! Let you off? Who’s letting me off?”
He grabbed Feng Changqing by the belt!
A 200-pound fat man, he lifted like it was nothing, hurling him toward the window!
*Crash!*
The window shattered! Feng Changqing screamed as he was thrown out!
Jiangnan’s eyes widened, “Bloody hell! This is the third floor…”
Is this really necessary?
Seventy or eighty years old, still so ferocious?
Truly, throwing people out?
Shen Hong, “No worries! He won’t die! Plenty of time to recover inside! He pisses me off just looking at him!”
He flipped the table! Nearly trapping Luo Bei underneath!
“Still not buggering off? Waiting for me to light your cigarette?”
Luo Bei’s face was ashen. His losses today were massive!
Grabbing his briefcase, he slunk out.
Shen Hong turned, all smiles, “Young brother Jiangnan, this was our Spirit Martial Association’s failure in oversight. I’ve looked into the matter!”
“Sorry for the trouble caused!”
Jiangnan grinned, “No problem, just buy me a meal!”
Shen Hong paused, then burst out laughing, patting Jiangnan’s shoulder, “I actually have a small request!”
“Go ahead, old man!”
“I’ve done some research on the vitality ginseng’s effects. Could you provide some to our Spirit Martial Association’s research team?”
“For research! We have a professional team. Maybe we can crack why it has such powerful effects!”
“If we succeed, it’ll benefit the whole world!”
“Of course, we won’t ask you to give it for free! We…”
Jiangnan’s eyes lit up, “Spirit pearls! Spirit pearls will do! How many you got?”
Shen Hong was stunned, then laughed, “How many do you want?”
Jiangnan said shyly, “Not too many. I still need to run my stall to support my family, got two little babies at home waiting to be fed!”
“A hundred or eighty pounds should do!”
Shen Hong: ???
What the bloody hell?
A hundred or eighty pounds?
You think spirit pearls are glass marbles from a two-yuan shop?
To take home and play with?
Who negotiates like that!
[Resentment value from Shen Hong +666!]
