Seeing Luo Chen stand up, especially hearing that word “good” from him, made Zi Yuan secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, they absolutely must not offend Luo Wuji, or else no one would be able to protect Luo Chen!
Meanwhile, Zhang Yang and the others sneered coldly nearby.
“Hmph, was he not acting all high and mighty?”
“In the end, does he not still have to bow his head?”
“Think about it, does he not see who he has offended this time?” Yuan Na showed a mocking expression as she looked at Luo Chen.
“Yes, does he dare to offend Luo Wuji?”
“When Luo Wuji truly comes to settle accounts, not only him, but even the people behind him will probably be finished,” Tang Long also chimed in.
After several encounters with Luo Chen, this group had always looked down on him, yet every time they ended up getting their faces slapped. Whether it was treating him to dinner, watching him make a fool of himself at the annual party, Chen Jie competing with him in throwing money around, or even Han Feiyu bringing in a grandmaster, every single time Luo Chen stomped them underfoot.
But would it be the same this time?
No matter how impressive you are, surnamed Luo, do you still dare to challenge Luo Wuji?
But the next moment.
Luo Chen swung his hand back and delivered a slap!
“Smack!”
Han Donglai was sent flying by this single slap.
The entire venue fell into stunned silence. Everyone once again looked at Luo Chen with utter disbelief, filled with shock.
“This is my answer!” Luo Chen looked at Han Donglai, who had been sent flying, the corner of his mouth carrying thick mockery.
Using the name Luo Wuji to threaten him?
This was probably the biggest joke in the world!
Han Donglai was the most shocked of all, because in his view, anyone with even a little brains would soften their stance at this moment.
Because what he said was not false, nor was he merely pulling a tiger’s skin. He had truly spoken with Luo Wuji on the phone, and on the other end, Luo Wuji had truly personally said he would stand up for him.
But the person before him actually dared to do this?
Was he truly courting death, or was he openly challenging Luo Wuji?
The answer came quickly, because Luo Chen looked at Han Donglai with a playful expression, then slowly spoke.
“Pass a message to him for me. Tell him I am waiting for him in Nanling!”
I am waiting for him in Nanling?
These words exploded like thunder. Everyone’s minds buzzed, then they showed the most unbelievable expressions of their lives as they looked at Luo Chen.
What was he doing?
Was he declaring war on Luo Wuji?
Was he challenging Luo Wuji?
“What did you say?” Han Donglai could not care about the intense pain on his face, showing an extremely disbelieving expression as he looked at Luo Chen.
“Go tell that Luo Wuji of yours, I am waiting for him in Nanling!” Luo Chen repeated, his expression completely normal.
“Ha!” Zi Yuan’s mouth hung open so wide it could almost fit an egg.
Zhang Yang and the others were dumbstruck. Only one thought remained in their minds.
Has this kid gone mad?
Daring to openly challenge Luo Wuji like this?
And even daring to say he is waiting for Luo Wuji in Nanling?
Everyone finally came back to their senses.
“You truly want me to pass this message?” Han Donglai still could not quite believe it, asking for confirmation once more.
After the incidents of trampling Qingmang and bloodbathing Longdu, there was actually still someone in the country who dared to challenge Luo Wuji?
“I told you to pass it, so pass it. If you do not, I can guarantee you will not walk out of here today,” Luo Chen said coldly.
He wanted to see just who this so-called Luo Wuji actually was?
After a long silence, Han Donglai slowly stood up, then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He accepted this slap. Even though he was the boss of Nanling, he was clear that this young man before him truly had the strength to kill him.
After all, a renowned grandmaster like Tang Beizhong of Southern Province did not dare to act rashly before this young man, so how could he?
But he suddenly became extremely excited.
For no other reason than what the other party had just said.
This was a challenge to Luo Wuji!
This was equivalent to already pronouncing the death sentence on this young man!
“Good, I will pass this message!”
“When Mr. Luo arrives in Nanling, let us see if you still dare to be so arrogant!”
“Know this, the words you spoke today will bring catastrophic disaster upon you!” Han Donglai smiled viciously.
“Hmph, if he truly comes to Nanling, then he will know what true catastrophic disaster means!” Luo Chen did not care in the slightest.
“Let us go.” Han Donglai turned and left.
These words, he would pass them on!
And he would embellish them when he did.
He wanted to see just what backing this young man had, daring to challenge Luo Wuji?
Zi Yuan looked at Luo Chen with a complex expression.
Luo Wuji was her idol, her spiritual support.
But at the same time, after spending time with Luo Chen these past days, she felt he had truly been good to her.
Whether it was Luo Chen saving her the first time they met, or giving her a dress at the annual party or standing up for her by beating someone up, all of this had moved Zi Yuan quite deeply.
So Zi Yuan was the person who least wanted conflict between Luo Chen and Luo Wuji!
And that was Luo Wuji, invincible under heaven, decisive in killing. Once Luo Chen truly offended Luo Wuji, who could save him?
During dinner afterwards, everyone intentionally or unintentionally avoided Luo Chen, looking at him as if he were a dead man walking.
For no other reason than that Luo Chen had offended Luo Wuji, openly challenging him. Who would still dare to get involved with Luo Chen now?
Meanwhile, on the other side.
After Han Donglai returned, he immediately made a phone call, telling everything that happened here, word for word, to Luo Wuji on the other end of the line.
After hanging up, a sneer curled at Han Donglai’s mouth.
He was, after all, the boss of Nanling. That young man not only crippled his son but also publicly slapped him in the face.
Did he not care about face?
Was Han Donglai someone who could be hit just like that?
Did he truly think no one could deal with him?
Daring to be so arrogant, even daring to challenge Luo Wuji?
Hmph, he wanted to see just how that young man would die when Luo Wuji arrived!
The team building continued until nightfall, when the group prepared to take the bus back.
After everyone boarded the bus, someone suddenly shouted.
“Has anyone seen Ding Dang?”
The one asking was a girl named Zhang Yun, also an employee in the marketing department. She was usually quiet and reserved, rarely getting close to colleagues. Even though something so big happened today, she did not gossip behind people’s backs like Zhang Yang and the others.
“Could she still be at Huxiao Villa?” Zi Yuan asked at this time.
“Give her a call,” Luo Chen also spoke up. After all, he was the manager of the marketing department. Now that they were about to leave, if one person was missing he naturally had to handle it.
“I called, but no one answered,” Zhang Yun said anxiously. After all, it was already late, and although there were streetlights around Huxiao Villa, other places were pitch black. If Ding Dang was outside, it would definitely be very unsafe.
Although such things as murder and robbery were rare in this era, Ding Dang was still a girl, so people were still worried.
“We cannot leave with someone missing. Everyone get off the bus and search in groups of three,” Luo Chen directly arranged.
