This slap sent Vincent crashing to the ground. Being hit in the face in front of so many people, he felt utterly humiliated and harbored a desire to kill Li Se. He quickly scrambled to his feet, roaring, "I will absolutely not let you off the hook! I'll make you pay the price!"
"Pay the price?" Li Se sneered, kicking him again and again. "Are you going to apologize or not?"
"Ah, if I kill you... Owww!"
"You dare to hit me, my boss won't let you off... Ugh!"
"I don't dare anymore... I'll call you big brother, alright? Just stop hitting me... Please, really stop hitting me... Ah!"
Initially, Vincent could still issue threats, but as time went on, he realized that the more he threatened, the harder Li Se hit. In the end, he could only beg for mercy.
The surrounding crowd watched this scene with a buzz of discussion.
"Isn't that Vincent, the financial consultant from Kunhua Group?"
"It is! Damn, this kid's got guts, daring to hit someone from Kunhua Group?"
"I heard that Kunhua Group has a top-tier family backing them!"
"Let me tell you, I just saw Young Master Kun. He's in this financial building right now. This is going to be good."
"..."
As everyone was chattering, a figure walked towards them.
"It's Young Master Kun!" someone exclaimed.
Just moments ago, they were saying it would be good if Young Master Kun appeared, and now he had.
"Young Master Kun... This kid is too arrogant! I already mentioned my boss was you, but he still hit me!" As soon as Vincent saw Young Master Kun, he felt like he had grasped a lifeline.
"What's going on?" This Young Master Kun was none other than Zheng Kun. He was accompanied by two bodyguards, but it was clear that he had injuries on his face.
"I just took a fancy to a woman, and she hit me..." Vincent said.
"You're as lecherous as ever," Zheng Kun said with a cold snort.
"Young Master Kun, I..." Vincent didn't know what to say.
"But even if you're lecherous, you're still the financial consultant of my Kunhua Group. Speak up, who hit you?" Zheng Kun said coldly.
"I did." A familiar voice replied.
Zheng Kun froze and couldn't help but look over. Upon seeing, he was stunned. Immediately, a surge of anger rose within him. Just yesterday, he had taken a liking to a woman, and it was this brat who had beaten him. He was still in pain, and if it weren't for Professor Steven, he would likely still be hospitalized.
"It's you again!" Zheng Kun was furious. "Kid, you've got some nerve! Today, you'll kneel before me, and this woman beside you will present herself. I'll have my fun with her for a few days!"
"Heh, Young Master Kun, it seems like you've forgotten the pain after your wounds have healed from yesterday?" Li Se said, narrowing his eyes.
"What do you think this place is? This is the Financial Building, and my Kunhua Group has a standing here. If you don't give me an explanation today, you won't be leaving this building!" Zheng Kun said sternly.
"It seems you've truly forgotten the pain after your wounds have healed. Shall I beat you up again?" Li Se casually threatened, raising his fist.
However, to others, these words carried a different weight.
"What's going on? Did this kid beat up Young Master Kun?"
"His guts are too big, he even hit Young Master Kun?"
"Whether he hit him or not, with his attitude, it's unlikely this will end well."
"Who is Young Master Kun? He's the boss of Kunhua Group, and their cosmetics company is almost number one. That's not all, it's rumored that this Young Master Kun has the backing of a top-tier family!"
"If this kid doesn't comply, he'll likely pay a terrible price."
"..."
The heated discussions erupted once more.
In the eyes of the crowd, Li Se had no choice but to do as Zheng Kun said. Otherwise, he wouldn't be leaving this Financial Building today.
"Kid, how dare you be so arrogant towards Young Master Kun?" The two bodyguards beside him looked ready to act. This kid was too presumptuous, not even respecting Young Master Kun.
Zheng Kun looked at Li Se with defiance. "This is the Financial Building, and you can't escape today. Kneel down and slap yourself until I tell you to stop. Also, this woman is mine. Don't you dare object, who told you to offend me?"
He then looked at Zhang Aiming and said, somewhat enviously, "Good kid, you really know how to enjoy yourself. The beauty from yesterday, and the beauty today, are not the same person!"
Even as a wealthy man like himself, he rarely encountered such beautiful women, yet this guy had two. He felt indignant.
"Did you hear? Hurry up and kneel to slap yourself!" the bodyguard yelled.
"It seems I didn't hit hard enough yesterday," Li Se said calmly.
"You dare to hit me again?" Zheng Kun chuckled. It was different yesterday at the restaurant; the brat ran after hitting him, and he could do nothing. But today, it was in the Financial Building, and this kid definitely couldn't escape.
"Fine, if you have the guts, hit me then? Go on, hit me! Don't say I didn't give you a chance. I'm practically offering my face to you, and you won't dare to hit it!"
"What, lost your tongue? Don't dare to act either? Kid, you need to understand the situation clearly. If you don't do as I say today, you won't leave this Financial Building!"
Zheng Kun became more animated as he spoke. Seeing Li Se still unresponsive, he actually leaned his face forward, pointed to his forehead, and said, "You look very defiant. Then hit here. I ask you, do you dare?"
"How could he dare? This is Young Master Kun."
"If it were me, I wouldn't dare. Let alone leaning my face over, even if you brushed my face, I wouldn't dare."
"It seems this kid knows the power of Young Master Kun and knows that hitting him here will come with a price."
"Since he doesn't dare to hit, he should kneel and apologize properly, then hand over the woman. That's the only way to quell Young Master Kun's anger."
"..."
The onlookers were all convinced that Li Se wouldn't dare to hit. They also understood, after all, who would dare to act against someone of Young Master Kun's status?
*Slap!*
Just as their discussion ended, a loud, resounding slap echoed. It was Li Se, who had fiercely smacked Zheng Kun on the forehead.
*Thump!*
With that impact, Zheng Kun crashed to the ground, almost losing consciousness. The pain made him dazed and disbelieving.
I... I've been hit again?
