Hearing the other party mention calling the police, Xu Fei couldn’t help but let out a helpless chuckle.
“You’ve really got the nerve to play the victim here, huh? Want to call the police, do you? I’ll give you that chance!”
“But if you don’t dare, I’m afraid I’ll have to smash up this property office before the police even arrive!”
Xu Fei’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried unshakable confidence. His resolute gaze left no one in the room doubting the sincerity of his intent, he might actually do it!
Meanwhile, Brother Zhao was still dawdling. After all, his earlier threat about calling the police was just a bluff.
He’d been colluding with the property office staff to deliberately inflate prices. If the police were really called, it wasn’t even clear who’d end up getting arrested!
So he stalled, hoping to buy time and scare Xu Fei off.
But Xu Fei wasn’t someone so easily intimidated. Having made his statement, he wasn’t about to back down.
Seeing Brother Zhao dragging his feet, Xu Fei struck again. His fist, wrapped in pure, refined energy, slammed down hard onto the desk in front of him.
Boom!
With a deafening crash, the massive, solid desk collapsed under Xu Fei’s single punch!
“You, you actually dare to cause trouble here? Don’t you know this is Brother Xing’s turf? Just you wait!”
Brother Zhao, startled by the sight, knew he couldn’t beat Xu Fei in a fight. Scrambling to the side, he fumbled for his phone and dialled Brother Xing via video call.
Wei Xinghuo happened to be on the road at that moment. His driver was taking him to a banquet when, halfway there, he received Brother Zhao’s video call.
Normally, Brother Zhao would report matters over a phone call, as it felt more formal.
But this time, Wei Xinghuo noticed his underling had opted for a video call, and he instantly sensed something was off.
“Hmm? A video call? What’s this kid up to now?”
After muttering to himself, Wei Xinghuo promptly accepted the video call request.
“Boss Xing, please save me! This guy’s going wild at the Wangjing Tower property office, he’s even threatening to smash up our place!”
The moment the call connected, Wei Xinghuo was greeted by Brother Zhao’s tearful face and a view of the property office, now reduced to a chaotic mess.
Wei Xinghuo’s temper flared. In all his years in the capital since leaving the military, no one had ever dared act so brazenly on his turf.
What’s more, Wei Xinghuo knew in his gut that the one wreaking havoc had to be Xu Fei, no one else could possibly have this kind of ability!
That thought only fuelled his anger further, and he barked furiously, “Show him the video!”
Brother Zhao hurriedly handed the phone over. Xu Fei, who’d been about to make his next move, froze when he saw a familiar face on the screen.
“Well, well, if it isn’t Wei Xinghuo! What’s this, your turf, is it? We’re old acquaintances, and yet you’re still jacking up prices on me here, talk about a flood washing out the Dragon King’s temple!”
Xu Fei delivered these words in a casual, offhand tone, which only irritated Wei Xinghuo and the others more.
If Xu Fei had come out raging, it might’ve suited Wei Xinghuo’s taste.
Back in the military, Wei Xinghuo had always been irked by Xu Fei’s attitude, undeniably strong yet always acting so nonchalant and carefree.
And Wei Xinghuo knew full well that Xu Fei was saying this deliberately to get under his skin.
That realisation stoked his fury even higher.
“Xu Fei, don’t get cocky! I can let bygones be bygones from our old military days.”
