The man in the suit was a bodyguard for the Cheng family, but only an outer perimeter one. He was usually enough, as most of his opponents were ordinary people.
However, he never expected the person before him to be a martial arts practitioner!
No matter how skilled he was, he hadn't stepped through that threshold yet and was naturally no match for Li Se.
The man in the suit struggled to get up from the ground, then approached Cheng Kaile, saying in a low voice, "Young Master, we should retreat for now!"
Cheng Kaile's expression was grim. He hadn't anticipated his bodyguard being defeated so easily by Li Se, and even suggesting a retreat. This meant he had suffered a huge humiliation by coming here.
"What, you're no match?" Cheng Kaile said coldly.
The man in the suit shook his head. "No!"
Cheng Kaile glanced at Li Se, anger and disbelief in his eyes. He knew his bodyguard's capabilities and yet, in front of Li Se, he couldn't even last one move.
"Good, good, good. You've got some skills indeed. No wonder you dare to be so arrogant. But I don't mind telling you, no matter how great your skills are, it won't matter. This world isn't decided by fists!"
Cheng Kaile sneered twice and got up to leave. "Let's go!"
Since he was outmatched now, it was better to leave first and bring in more experts later.
"Did I say you could leave?"
But as they were about to depart, Li Se's voice rang out.
"What, you still want to lay hands on me?" Cheng Kaile was somewhat agitated, mainly because he was genuinely afraid Li Se would make a move against him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left so readily, especially after Li Se had slapped him hard outside the Mu Zi Group building earlier.
Slap!
The words had barely left his mouth when Li Se delivered a slap.
"You..." Cheng Kaile was furious. "You dare hit me again? Believe it or not, I'll kill you!"
Slap!
"Say that again?" Li Se delivered another slap.
They say you shouldn't hit someone's face, but Cheng Kaile was being slapped repeatedly. He was completely enraged.
"I will ravage your woman and make sure you die without a proper burial. Your entire family will die..."
Slap!
"I'll bankrupt your company, and you'll regret this..."
Slap!!
Every time Cheng Kaile made a threat, Li Se would slap him.
Initially, Cheng Kaile could still utter threats, but after a few more slaps, he covered his face and wailed, "I don't dare anymore, I really don't dare! I'll leave right now, okay?"
"Get out!"
Li Se commanded.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Kaile felt a sense of relief and rushed towards the door without delay.
"If I see you again, don't blame me for being impolite!" Li Se added.
Cheng Kaile was utterly dejected. Impolite? Was what just happened considered polite? Gritting his teeth, he couldn't say anything more and could only leave quickly, hoping to find an opportunity for revenge later.
After leaving Mu Zi Group, Cheng Kaile asked sternly, "What's your situation? Were you doing that on purpose? Getting flipped over by that kid so easily?"
"Young Master, the other party is a martial arts practitioner!" the man in the suit replied in a low voice.
As the young master of a top family, how could he not know about martial arts practitioners?
Cheng Kaile's expression changed slightly. He wasn't surprised anymore. If Li Se was indeed a martial arts practitioner, then his bodyguard would be no match for him under any circumstances.
He had personally witnessed a true martial arts practitioner shatter stones with a single punch, and even pluck leaves to injure people!
"Damn it, how could he be a martial arts practitioner? Most martial arts practitioners should be under the control of our top families. It seems I'll have to find a martial arts practitioner to deal with this brat when I get back!"
Cheng Kaile gnashed his teeth, vowing never to let today's humiliation go unanswered!
In the office.
"It seems we'll have to find new partners," Zhang Aimin said with a hint of helplessness.
"Go ahead, I'll have the Chamber of Commerce take a look," Li Se replied with a smile, not overly concerned.
Zhang Aimin remarked, "But I must say, establishing a foothold in the capital is really difficult. Once you encounter these elite family disciples, if you don't comply, you have to leave."
"Sister Min, I'm here. Forget one Cheng family, I can beat up ten Cheng families," Li Se retorted with a cold snort.
Zhang Aimin smiled and asked, "I heard you're going to crash a wedding?"
"Uh... Sister Min, who told you that?" Li Se scratched his head.
"The engagement between Tang Xi and Ye Bowen is now known throughout the capital. It's the day after tomorrow. What do you plan to do then? Just watch your woman marry another man?" Zhang Aimin said with a half-smile.
Li Se said very seriously, "I will not give up on my woman, nor will I let her marry someone she doesn't like. Therefore, I will not let this engagement ceremony proceed."
Zhang Aimin said, with a touch of sourness, "Then what do you plan to do?"
"Sister Min, are you jealous?" Li Se pulled Zhang Aimin into his embrace, his hand restlessly reaching into her clothes.
"What's the use of being jealous?" Zhang Aimin blushed coyly, her pretty face turning red. "I've already given myself to you, I'm definitely not comparable to those ladies from noble families."
"Sister Min, how can you think that way?" Li Se quickly said, "My feelings for you are the same as for them."
"Just kidding, why are you so nervous?"
Zhang Aimin chuckled. "For me, as long as I can stay by your side, that's enough. Whether I have a title or not, it doesn't matter."
Hearing this, Li Se was touched and couldn't help but kiss Zhang Aimin's red lips.
They stayed in each other's arms for a while, but didn't go any further, as Zhang Aimin had a lot of work to do.
Moreover, people kept knocking on the door, with many documents requiring signatures.
The secretary, seeing Zhang Aimin's flushed face, seemed to understand what had happened. After signing the documents, she quickly left with them, her own face turning red. She thought to herself that her boss had great stamina, often experiencing passionate moments in the office.
As they needed to find new partners, Li Se accompanied Zhang Aimin on several trips. With the support of the Chamber of Commerce, they quickly found new suppliers.
These suppliers were not from the capital but from cities near the capital. After signing the cooperation agreements, the supplier issue was directly resolved.
However, the fact that Mu Zi Group found new suppliers was not good news for the old ones.
After all, they had gained considerable benefits from Mu Zi Group. As Mu Zi Group was no longer a small company, canceling cooperation meant significant losses to their performance.
Therefore, these suppliers all found Cheng Kaile.
