Hey, you stinky brat, calling me so late at night must mean no good news. Are you getting along unhappily with them over there? Luo’s father really understood his son well.
Before Luo Chen even spoke, Luo’s father had already guessed most of it.
Luo Chen briefly explained the situation.
Hey, then I really need to have a word with that brat Xia Yuanwu.
Clearly Luo’s father was also a little dissatisfied.
Forget it. You young people’s matters, you handle them yourself. Dad does not want you to suffer any grievances outside. Just do what you think is right. Luo’s father said on the other end of the phone.
By the way, you stinky brat, let me remind you. Miss Bei’er has been coming to see me every day lately. I quite approve of her. You should mess around less with other girls outside. Luo’s father instructed with a smile.
Luo Chen smiled and hung up the phone. As for the Xia family’s kindness, he had already made his own decision.
When he returned to the shared rental place with Jiang Tongran, Jiang Tongran was drinking with someone again.
Little Chen, you are too bold. You must not do that again next time. Clearly Jiang Tongran still thought the wine and food were all stolen by Luo Chen.
Luo Chen did not explain. Instead he noticed a purple bruise on Jiang Tongran’s arm.
Jiang Tongran noticed Luo Chen’s gaze and awkwardly moved her arm to the other side.
That was the mark left when the boss of the Night Fire bar deliberately harassed her today. He grabbed her arm and she struggled to break free.
Seeing Luo Chen still staring at her.
Enough. Your sister knows what you are thinking, but the other party is really not someone we can afford to offend. I appreciate your good intentions.
Jiang Tongran was clearly reminding Luo Chen that the other side was someone they could not provoke and that he should not dwell on it anymore.
Han Feiyu beside them gave a cold laugh.
If you want to help Sister Xiaoran, then really take action.
He did not believe that Luo Chen, this little security guard, had the guts to do it.
Moreover, how could the other party be someone a small security guard like Luo Chen could provoke?
After all even he did not dare to say anything.
The others also looked at Luo Chen with disdain, their eyes full of contempt.
They thought Luo Chen was only trying to win Jiang Tongran’s favour and was deliberately putting on a show for her.
Luo Chen did not reply. After all this matter still depended on Jiang Tongran. If Jiang Tongran asked him to help her, then Luo Chen would definitely take action to help.
But since Jiang Tongran had not said so, Luo Chen would not deliberately do anything.
Seeing Luo Chen stay silent, the group gave another round of cold laughs.
The night passed without incident. The next day Luo Chen still went to the Xia family company.
As soon as he reached the company entrance, Xia Xinxin and Xia Qiuyan were already standing there.
Young man surnamed Luo, what exactly do you mean? Xia Qiuyan said with a stiff face.
Last night Xia Xinxin had told her the whole story in detail. It almost made Xia Qiuyan jump with rage.
After all that was the Yang family.
Not to mention the current Xia family, even the previous Xia family could not afford to offend them.
Moreover at this critical moment the Yang family could have helped pull the Xia family up. Now it was ruined. They had completely offended the Yang family to death. Who else could the Xia family turn to for help?
The biggest problem the Xia family faced now was funding. Five hundred million in funds could let the Xia family catch their breath and perhaps rise again.
But if there was no five hundred million, then after some time the Xia family might face a broken capital chain and even collapse directly.
Xia Qiuyan had never liked Luo Chen anyway. Although she did not know the exact details of what happened back then, the Xia family had indeed offended people they should not have because of the Luo family and then been suppressed.
It had forced the Xia family down to this current state.
Now seeing Luo Chen offend the Yang family again, Xia Qiuyan hated him so much she wanted to strangle him.
You are just a kid from a county town. Where do you get the nerve to challenge and make enemies with a rich young master?
Forget it, little aunt. Things have already come to this. Do not pursue it anymore. Let us face the problem. Xia Xinxin said.
Luo Chen, I begged for a long time before Young Master Tian gave us another chance. He will be here soon. As long as you are willing to apologise, he has agreed to temporarily not pursue the matter. Xia Xinxin sighed.
To smooth this over she had even agreed to some excessive demands the other party made, all just to settle the matter.
After all five hundred million was too important for the current Xia family.
They had already taken many loans from the bank and could not borrow more. As for the other big families, they were unwilling to lend money.
Only the Yang family had a slight chance because of Yang Shaotian’s relationship with her.
But this slight chance was personally destroyed by Luo Chen last night. For the other party to come here today was already a huge stroke of luck.
As long as Luo Chen could sincerely apologise to the other party, perhaps that five hundred million could still be lent to the Xia family.
As long as the Xia family used this five hundred million to get through the crisis and then recovered costs from their other investment projects, the Xia family would definitely be able to climb back up.
So this five hundred million was truly extremely important to the Xia family.
While these words were being said, a Rolls-Royce slowly drove over.
Yang Shaotian got out of the car with a face full of triumph, then looked at Luo Chen arrogantly.
Shaotian.
Shaotian. Xia Xinxin and Xia Qiuyan called out at the same time.
The tone they used was very warm and affectionate, completely different from how they treated Luo Chen.
I have not seen you for several years. You are getting more handsome and more outstanding. Xia Qiuyan praised Yang Shaotian.
In her heart this was the most ideal and most suitable husband for Xia Xinxin.
He had family background, ability, good upbringing, and a bright appearance.
Most importantly the Yang family was a wealthy and powerful clan, completely different from Luo Chen who came from a county town background.
Only a wealthy family with another wealthy family was a proper match.
Xia Qiuyan looked at Luo Chen, then at Yang Shaotian. The gap between the two was really too big.
I heard you started from nothing these past few years and already have a company with assets of one hundred million. Truly a promising young talent. Xia Qiuyan praised Yang Shaotian again.
Yang Shaotian looked at Luo Chen triumphantly and said with a cold laugh.
Not at all. How could I compare to your son-in-law here? This was clearly mocking and squeezing Luo Chen.
Come on, it was just a misunderstanding. What ability does he have? If not for Xinxin’s father being so muddle-headed, he would not even know where he would be now. Xia Qiuyan soothed Yang Shaotian.
Misunderstanding? Yesterday’s matter was not a misunderstanding. Yang Shaotian snorted coldly.
It was all a misunderstanding. Look, have I not brought him here to apologise to you?
He humiliated me in front of so many people yesterday. Can a casual apology today just wipe it away? Yang Shaotian gave a cold laugh.
Then what do you think, Shaotian? Call all the people from your company out. I want him to kneel and admit his mistake in front of everyone.
