"Do you have such good intentions?" Lu Yang asked with a cold sneer.
"Don't think of me as that bad, okay? I was just too worried about my grandfather's condition that day, which is why my words were so harsh. In reality, I'm very gentle and kind-hearted!" Wei Mengyao continued.
"You saved my grandfather, so I naturally want to repay you. After I help you sort out this matter, our Wei family will no longer owe you any favors!"
"So, you said all that just to repay the Wei family's debt. Heh, I don't place much importance on these things. I saved Elder Wei purely because I admire his character!"
"Besides, the news your uncle mentioned is worth thirty-five billion. This favor is already enough!" Lu Yang said calmly.
"Then you were my shield just now, and I owe you a favor that hasn't been repaid. Consider this me repaying you!" Wei Mengyao continued, not giving up.
"Alright then, since you want to repay it, go ahead. How do you plan to save Black Dragon Capital?" Lu Yang looked at Wei Mengyao and sneered, wanting to see what schemes the little vixen had in mind.
"It's very simple. Have my uncle step in. My uncle is the mayor of Jiangbei City. Those people won't dare to disobey him!" Wei Mengyao continued.
"Mayor Wei is incredibly busy with state affairs and it's inconvenient for him to interfere in legitimate business competition!"
"You should keep this favor for now!"
"However, I can tell you that I, Lu, don't take the Yan Jing Xiao family lightly. I don't need anyone's help; with a single finger, I, Lu Yang, can annihilate the Xiao family!"
Lu Yang smiled slightly, finished his glass of red wine, then stood up and left the Hailan Club.
"This kid, he's too boastful! What is the status of the Yan Jing Xiao family? Even our Wei family dares not provoke them!"
"Hmph, just wait a few days and come beg my grandfather!" Watching Lu Yang leave, Wei Mengyao snorted coldly.
...
Not long after Lu Yang walked out, he saw four or five men surrounding Tang Shimin.
"What are you doing?" Tang Shimin shouted, seeing the lecherous eyes of the burly men.
"What are we doing?"
"Your cousin gave you to me. Serve this young master well tonight, or I'll make you wish you were dead!" The leader was Bai Hao. Seeing Tang Shimin's fair face, he reached out to touch her.
However, before his hand could touch Tang Shimin's face, it was grabbed by Lu Yang. With a gentle twist, Bai Hao let out a wail of pain.
"Ah... it hurts... it hurts..."
"Young Master Bai, are you tired of living? How dare you bully my wife?" Lu Yang stared at Bai Hao and asked coldly.
"So what if she's your wife?"
"Tang Zixuan offended me and gave you my wife as compensation. Let go of me immediately, or I'll make you regret it!" Bai Hao glared at Lu Yang and roared coldly.
"Tang Zixuan?"
"What kind of thing is he? What right does he have to give my wife to you?"
"If you want a woman, go find Tang Zixuan and let his mother and sister play with you. Why are you looking for my wife?" Lu Yang grabbed Bai Hao by the collar with one hand and lifted him, speaking coldly.
"Let me go quickly! What are you all standing around for? Go and cripple this brat!" Bai Hao immediately shouted.
Seeing this, the four burly men behind him rushed towards Lu Yang.
But how could they be Lu Yang's match? Lu Yang took them down with one kick each, sending them all to the ground.
"It's your turn!" Lu Yang looked at Bai Hao and sneered.
"You... you can't touch me! My backer now is the Yan Jing Xiao family! If you touch me, Young Master Xiao will never let you go!" Bai Hao was covered in cold sweat. He knew Lu Yang was a reckless person who would do anything at any time, so he quickly invoked Xiao Wuji of the Yan Jing Xiao family.
"Yan Jing Xiao family?"
"What the hell is that?"
"You laid hands on my wife, so today I'll break one of your legs. If there's a next time, you won't be able to keep all three of your legs!" After speaking, Lu Yang directly threw Bai Hao to the ground and stepped on his leg.
With a "crack" of bone breaking, Bai Hao's leg was completely crushed by Lu Yang.
"Ah..." A cry of agony erupted from Bai Hao's mouth.
"Wife, I'll take you home!" Lu Yang smiled at Tang Shimin.
"Lu Yang, you've caused trouble for the Tang family again!"
"Do you know who Young Master Bai is? He's the heir of Hesheng Group! If you offend Hesheng Group, the Tang family is finished!" Tang Shimin shook off Lu Yang's hand and hurried to Bai Hao, saying apologetically, "Young Master Bai, I'm sorry, Lu Yang didn't mean it!"
"Didn't mean it? Didn't mean to beat me up like this?"
"I'm telling you, the Tang family is finished this time, and I will never let the Tang family off, no matter what!" Bai Hao roared at Tang Shimin. As the eldest son of the Bai family, he had been pampered since childhood and had never been beaten like this. Now that one of his legs was broken by Lu Yang, he naturally hated Lu Yang and the Tang family behind him to the extreme.
"Shimin, let's go. There's no need to beg this good-for-nothing. I don't even take a mere Bai family seriously!"
"If he dares to lay a hand on the Tang family or you, I don't mind destroying the Bai family!" Lu Yang grabbed Tang Shimin's hand and said with a smile.
"You..."
"Hmph, can you not brag? Do you know that the Tang family is finished tomorrow?" Hearing Lu Yang's words, Tang Shimin was furious. She shook off Lu Yang's hand and hailed a taxi herself, leaving the scene. Lu Yang shook his head. He no longer cared about Tang Shimin's misunderstanding because he believed that this misunderstanding would be resolved over time.
Just as Lu Yang was about to leave, his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was Ken calling.
"Boss, it's bad! I'm being chased, come save me quickly!" Ken said into the phone in panic.
"What?"
"Where are you?" Lu Yang's expression instantly turned extremely cold.
"It's inside the shopping mall. I can only walk in crowded places, but they are relentlessly pursuing me!" Ken continued.
"I'm coming right away!" Lu Yang finished speaking, turned on his phone's GPS, locked onto Ken's location, jumped into his car, and sped off like an arrow.
The Hailan Club was more than ten kilometers away from the shopping mall above the secret base. Lu Yang drove his car at over a hundred miles per hour, running five or six red lights, and finally arrived at the shopping mall in the city center in ten minutes. It was already ten o'clock at night, and there were very few people in the mall. In another half an hour, this city center shopping mall would close.
Following the GPS, Lu Yang quickly ran towards a corner on the fourth floor. In that corner, Lu Yang's subordinate, Ken, was hiding.
