Young Master Lu?
Ye Lingchen had a confused expression, "Which Young Master Lu?"
"He's one of the princes of Capital City, Lu Group's only son, Lu Hao!" Li Si's face glowed radiantly, his eyes gleaming, "He had always acted with impunity and his assets are in the billions. In front of him, you're just an ant!"
"I've once got to know a Young Master Lu. Who would have thought that he would remember me! The thugs in his house alone numbered in the hundreds, and all of them are trained. They go by the name of Cleaver Gang!"
Li Si got more excited as he bragged. His face was red and the veins on his neck were bulging, "How is it? Are you scared? If you kneel and kowtow to me now, I will consider putting in a good word for you!"
"Lingchen, what should we do?" Zhang Yunxi was terrified once more.
Ye Lingchen laughed it off, "It's okay, we will wait here for that Young Master Lu."
"You're asking for death! Where Young Master Lu passes, the land turns barren! I guarantee that you'll regret this!" Li Si stood up, barking at Ye Lingchen like a mad dog that was waiting for its owner.
15 minutes later,
Vroom!
The rumbling sound of the engine roared through the air from afar, rushing closer like a beast!
"He's here!" Li Si proclaimed excitedly as though he was on drugs, "Young Master Lu is here!"
Without any other words, he rushed outside to greet the guest.
A black Hummer parked in front of the villa's entrance.
Li Si eagerly went forward to open the door for Lu Hao and welcomed him.
Behind Lu Hao was the same bodyguard duo. The three of them stood tall with a lordly presence, ignoring Li Si.
However, Li Si dared not show any discontent. He instead bent over and put on an ingratiating smile, "It's an honor for me to have Young Master Lu come over for a visit."
Lu Hao calmly nodded his head, then frowned, "Your place is really run down. Even my toilet is better."
"Of course, of course. How can my place compare to Young Master Lu? Rest assured, I will arrange the best hotel for you to stay at, " Li Si replied with a bow.
"The hotels here are surely trashy too!" Lu Hao shook his head, "If not for my father asking me to come to wait out the storm over here, I'll never come to this kind of desolate town!"
"Wait out the storm?"
Li Si was surprised, shocked even. What kind of person does it take to have Young Master Lu go into hiding?
"This world has too many capable people. I too have crossed someone I should not. Fortunately, that person is generous and left it at that, " Lu Hao said in a fearful tone.
He still could not forget what his father Lu Tianxiong told him before he Lu Hao left home.
"Hao'er, even though that person left it at that, the Lin family had already sent us a warning. This incident's consequences are too dire. You have gotten into deep trouble!"
"Dad, what should we do? Will we get through this?"
"Our family will pay dearly for sure, but you must remember to keep a low profile in the future. Make sure you never cross that person again!"
"Dad, don't worry. I won't dare to do that again!"
"To prevent you from causing more trouble, it'll be wise for you to stay low for now. You should go and wait out the storm..."
With that, Lu Hao ended up here and coincidentally contacted Li Si.
Lu Hao's words had Li Si's heart skip a beat and started sweating profusely. 'Is this the fabled fight between the gods?'
"Right, you said someone was stirring up trouble at your place?" Lu Hao asked.
"Yes! That b*stard cheated in my casino. He took all my savings away! Most importantly, he is a very good fighter." Li Si said resentfully.
Lu Hao nodded without saying anything, but the aura he gave off was something that made Li Si excited. Young Master Lu was going to avenge him!
The four of them strode in intimidatingly.
Lu Hao at the forefront, strutting his way into the villa.
However, mid-stride, Li Si realized that Young Master Lu had prostrated himself on the floor.
Hm?
Li Si was stunned for a moment, "Young Master Lu, why did you suddenly kneel mid-stride? Are your legs numb? Here, let me help you!"
The next moment, the two bodyguards following Lu Hao too had knelt to the floor with a loud thud!
Their faces were filled with horror when they saw their nemesis which they would never forget.
Ye Lingchen was seated on the chair, looking at them with an insincere smile, causing their scalp to go numb.
Their legs went weak. The loss of control resulted in them kneeling.
"What's the matter?" Li Si's face was riddled with confusion.
"Lu Hao greets Grandmaster Ye!"
Lu Hao was almost scared to tears. After calming himself with great difficulty, he finally managed to squeeze out that greeting.
Boom!
Li Si's mind was blown, turning blank instantly.
His lips shivered. The sounds of his grinding teeth could be heard clearly.
It was summer then, but his limbs felt cold. His entire body was shivering.
"Grand... Grandmaster Ye?!"
He looked at Ye Lingchen fearfully, his body bent over and assumed the kneeling position on the floor. Speaking through shaking lips.
Ye Lingchen ignored him, but instead turned to Lu Hao and greeted him calmly, "Young Master Lu, it's been a while!"
Lu Hao ingratiatingly said, "Grandmaster Ye, it is my honor that you still remember me."
"I heard that you are here to help someone get rid of me?" Ye Lingchen followed with a question.
Lu Hao's heart immediately sank. His head shook like a pellet drum and replied in a terrified voice, "No such thing! I would never dare to cross you!"
Following that, he grabbed Li Si by his side and without any words, gave him three big slaps across his face!
"You b*stard! How dare you trouble Grandmaster Ye?! You've got a death wish!"
Lu Hao felt bitter. The reason he came out was to stay low, but coming here pushed him to the front end of the spear instead.
Li Si's action was no different from sending him into a fiery pit!
"It's my mistake! Grandmaster Ye, I didn't recognize you with my limited knowledge. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Si's face was already swollen, but he could not care less at a time like this, kowtowing like a madman begging for mercy.
Ye Lingchen stood up slowly, then walked up to Lu Hao's side.
Lu Hao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then looked up to Ye Lingchen fearfully.
Ye Lingchen lightly tapped his shoulder, "This person set up a gambling session in private and entrapped my friend. He even wanted to rob my money. As for how to settle this, I'll leave that to you."
Following that, he took Zhang Yunxi with him headed for the door, "Oh right, I'm taking away the money that I won."
"Please go ahead. Goodbye Grandmaster Ye..." Lu Hao replied politely, finally letting out a sigh of relief as he stared at Ye Lingchen's back. In that short time, his clothes were drenched in sweat.
Immediately afterward, his cruel gaze locked onto Li Si, roaring, "B*stard, are you trying to get the entire Lu family killed!? Beat him to death!"
Crashing sounds ensued.
Outside the villa, Ye Lingchen could hear Li Si's agonized screams.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yunxi was still in a daze. Her mouth was slightly open with her eyes wide open. That dazed look stared at Ye Lingchen, adorable beyond compare...
