The words were spoken through gritted teeth.
Even Zhen Hai and the others could discern the trace of hatred emanating from Shi Chengzhi's speech.
This sent shivers down their spines.
Chen Jin chào said, "That's enough, don't let it happen again."
Shi Chengzhi and Wang Xiaoli rose from the ground with hatred, but did not let Chen Jin chào see their venomous gazes. He swore in his heart that he would make Chen Jin chào pay a heavy price!
Death would be too good for him!
Chen Jin chào ignored Shi Chengzhi's resentful gaze and turned to Zhen Hai and the others. "You all send Director Zhen to the hospital for treatment first, I'll stay to handle the aftermath."
"How can that be?" Zhen Hai disagreed.
No matter what, Chen Jin chào had offended Shi Chengzhi for his sake. If he left now, wouldn't that be betraying a friend?
Zhen Hai said with a determined gaze, "I can't bring myself to betray a friend."
"We die together or live together."
Chen Jin chào couldn't help but chuckle.
Although Zhen Hai was usually a rather opportunistic person, he was straightforward in matters like this.
He patted Zhen Hai's shoulder and smiled with a relaxed expression, "Director Zhen, you should be able to guess that I have some influence, enough to settle these matters. Hurry to the hospital for surgery. If you delay, there might be complications."
Zhen Hai opened his mouth.
Chen Jin chào waved his hand, "Alright, you staying here won't help me at all. With you gone, I can act more freely."
This was the truth.
Zhen Hai finally said no more, and promised Chen Jin chào that if he didn't show up for work the next day, he would personally call the police.
The six men helped Zhen Hai leave the hotel.
At the hotel entrance, someone asked Zhen Hai about Chen Jin chào's identity. Zhen Hai gave a wry smile, "How would I know who he is? My intuition tells me that Xiao Chen is no ordinary person. We can't win his favor, but we absolutely must not offend him. As for tonight's events, I don't know how it will end. If Xiao Chen doesn't come to work tomorrow, all seven of us will call the police."
The private room.
When Shi Chengzhi saw that Chen Jin chào had not left yet, his anger grew even more intense.
Chen Jin chào pulled over a stool and sat down, meeting Shi Chengzhi's furious gaze and said, "I know you hate me, so I'll give you a chance for revenge. Call Qian Deshui and ask him to come over."
Shi Chengzhi's eyes widened.
Wang Xiaoli also thought she had misheard. Had Chen Jin chào lost his mind?
If Master Shui himself came, there would be no escape.
Shi Chengzhi was skeptical, thinking that Chen Jin chào might be setting a trap. However, Chen Jin chào held up three fingers, "I'll give you three minutes. If you don't call Qian Deshui, I'll throw you out the window."
Chen Jin chào was not joking; he truly would do it.
Shi Chengzhi realized Chen Jin chào was not joking, but still asked with some uncertainty, "Are you sure you want me to call Master Shui?"
Chen Jin chào nodded again.
Shi Chengzhi chuckled inwardly. What was there to hesitate about?
He immediately took out his phone and dialed Qian Deshui's number.
"Master Shui, someone bullied me!"
"Are you free to come over now? That person is very arrogant and says he wants to see you."
On the other end of the line.
Qian Deshui's brow furrowed, and he said displeased, "Someone dares to act up on your turf and even lay hands on you? Who is this person?"
Shi Chengzhi's gaze fell on Chen Jin chào's security uniform, and he hesitated, "I'm not sure. It seems to be a security guard from Ninghai University. He's very skilled; none of my ten subordinates could match him."
Qian Deshui's heart burned with anger.
Who was so audacious, so disrespectful of him!
"Alright, I understand."
"Tell that person to wait, I'll be there in twenty minutes," Qian Deshui said.
Shi Chengzhi thought he misheard, "Master Shui, aren't you in Jiangning? How can you get here in twenty minutes?"
Qian Deshui replied, "I've already arrived in Ninghai and plan to take care of some matters here in the next few days."
Shi Chengzhi was overjoyed. After a few flattering words, he hung up the phone.
However, he did not dare to show the joy on his face to Chen Jin chào. He said to Wang Xiaoli, "Xiaoli, Master Shui will be at the hotel in twenty minutes. We just need to hold on a little longer."
Wang Xiaoli was also overjoyed.
Master Shui was their biggest backer, the king of the underground world in Jiangnan.
It was too easy for him to make an ordinary person disappear from this world. It was foreseeable that Chen Jin chào would not have a good outcome.
The two of them dared not speak out now, for fear of scaring Chen Jin chào and causing him to escape.
But how could their small movements be hidden from Chen Jin chào?
Chen Jin chào smiled and took out his phone to leisurely browse short videos.
Indeed.
Time seemed to speed up when browsing short videos. After watching only a few videos, Chen Jin chào heard activity outside the door.
Shi Chengzhi could no longer hide the joy and anger in his heart. He yelled at Chen Jin chào, "Master Shui is here, you're dead! In front of Master Shui, you're just a slightly larger ant."
"You can still kneel down now, it's not too late," Wang Xiaoli chimed in.
Chen Jin chào remained unfazed, as if he hadn't heard their words.
Wang Xiaoli became even more aggressive, almost pointing at Chen Jin chào's nose and scolding, "Still playing dumb? You're at death's door, don't you know? I want to see how long you can keep this up. Do you really think you're invincible?"
*Swish!*
Chen Jin chào looked up, his icy gaze meeting Wang Xiaoli's eyes, causing them to sting!
"I generally don't lay a hand on women, but that's just a principle." Chen Jin chào said.
*Bang!*
The private room door was kicked open.
More than twenty people surged into the room, making it feel crowded and oppressive.
Chen Jin chào remained seated, making Shi Chengzhi grit his teeth.
Not long after.
Qian Deshui, a tall and lean figure, entered the room surrounded by several men. His gaze fell on Chen Jin chào. For some reason, Chen Jin chào gave him a familiar feeling.
Was it an illusion?
Seeing Qian Deshui, the stone in Shi Chengzhi's heart finally landed.
With his backing, he naturally became even more audacious. He pointed at Chen Jin chào and yelled, "You dog, are you tired of living? Why aren't you getting up to welcome Master Shui?"
"Master Shui!"
"This is the dog who did it."
"Look at me, look at my woman and my subordinates. He almost killed us. He also said that you, Master Shui, are nothing, and he's not afraid even if you come. Hearing that makes my blood boil."
Shi Chengzhi not only showed his loyalty but also fanned the flames, which indeed had some effect.
Qian Deshui's heart also flared with anger, but his expression remained calm. He simply asked Chen Jin chào, "You laid hands on my people, and you don't seem to take me seriously. Do you think Qian Mou is easy to bully?"
Chen Jin chào leaned back in his chair, completely relaxed and at ease.
"You are Qian Deshui?"
"A famous warlord in the Jiangnan region. I've heard much about you, but you're not quite what I imagined. You don't have much presence; you look like an ordinary person."
