Facing Young Master Li's call, Li Quangui ignored him and walked directly to Lu Fan's side. "Lord Lu, it is my fault for not teaching my son properly. I beg for your forgiveness!"
"Is it the father's fault if the son is not taught?" Lu Fan said coldly, "Even if I don't deal with him today, he will cause trouble in the future!"
"This..."
Li Quan Gui frowned, turned to walk towards Young Master Li, and before he could speak, Li Quan Gui slapped him. "You ignorant fool! How can you offend the person in front of you? Kneel down!"
"Dad, I'm your biological son, and you hit me so hard." Young Master Li shouted, "Who exactly is he that even you are so wary of!"
"Someone you can't afford to offend!" Xiao Bailong said coldly, "Leave a line when dealing with people, and you'll meet again in the future. Now you've kicked an iron plate, and you still dare to be so arrogant!"
Under Li Quan Gui's coercion, Young Master Li knelt down. He was quite unwilling, because in his opinion, Lu Fan was just an ordinary person, no different from him. Making him, the dignified Young Master Li, kneel to Lu Fan was simply a great humiliation.
Bai Xue stood aside, her eyes filled with wonder. She had never imagined that Lu Fan could possess such presence. After all, not long ago, Lu Fan was destitute. If it weren't for his excellent medical skills, their Bai family wouldn't have helped him.
To her surprise, after some time, Lu Fan had gained such status that even Li Quan Gui had to submit.
Thinking of this, Bai Xue's face flushed. She had been very worried before, even urging Lu Fan to apologize. Now, she felt like a clown.
"Mr. Lu, I was reckless before and didn't know your identity. I apologize for any offense." Young Master Li said repeatedly, "I hope Mr. Lu can let me off."
"You offended not me, but Bai Xue!" Lu Fan said coldly, "If he is willing to forgive you, I will not make things difficult for you."
Young Master Li quickly looked at Bai Xue, "It was my fault before. I hope Miss Bai can be magnanimous and spare my life."
"This..." Bai Xue frowned slightly. With so many important figures present, she naturally dared not put on airs. "If there's a next time, I will not be lenient!"
"Thank you, Miss Bai!" Li Quan Gui cupped his fists. "I have heard about what happened today and feel deeply guilty. After things settle down, I will personally go to the Bai family to apologize!"
Bai Xue shivered. This was the top figure of Tai'an Security Company. Under normal circumstances, why would he act like this?
He would personally go to the Bai family to apologize. When did the Bai family have such status? It was probably all because of Lu Fan.
"Although Miss Bai doesn't mind, he has ultimately done something wrong!" Li Quan Gui said repeatedly, "Mr. Lu and Miss Bai are magnanimous and don't want to bother with him, but I cannot condone it!"
With that, Li Quan Gui picked up a tool and smashed it towards Young Master Li. Young Master Li felt a sharp pain in his leg and let out a scream. One of his thighs snapped with a crack.
Everyone present was stunned. This was his own father, and he was so ruthless. It was enough to show that these powerful figures were not to be trifled with.
"I say, Old Li, isn't that a bit too harsh?" Xiao Bailong spoke up, "As the saying goes, even a tiger doesn't eat its cubs. Your actions are truly touching."
"My unfilial son is ignorant and dared to offend Mr. Lu. I'm just teaching him a lesson on behalf of Mr. Lu," Li Quan Gui said with a smile. "I hope Brother Bai can put in a good word for me with Mr. Lu. Tai'an Security Company will follow Mr. Lu's lead and will never dare to be his enemy." Su Dan Novel Network
"You mean your Tai Kang Security Company also wants to become Mr. Lu's subordinate?" Xiao Bailong smiled faintly, "Old Li, you're getting smarter and smarter."
Li Quan Gui gave an embarrassed smile. He did have that intention, but since Lu Fan hadn't explicitly stated his position, he didn't dare to speak carelessly.
Others might not know Lu Fan's background, but he did. As one of the big figures in Qingzhou, he had sent people to investigate everything Lu Fan had experienced.
He knew even better that the Mr. Lu in front of him was Lord Lu of Qingzhou. The methods he employed by the West Lake were not something ordinary people could handle. With such a person as a backer, why would he fear other forces in the future?
"Tai Kang Security Company has a great background," Lu Fan said with a faint smile. "How can I possibly control you!"
"I misspoke just now!" Li Quan Gui quickly cupped his fists. He could tell that Lu Fan was unwilling.
Since that was the case, he didn't dare to say anything more. A person like Lu Fan, even if he couldn't become friends, must not be offended. Li Quan Gui, who had reached his current position, was by no means brainless.
Bai Xue stood aside, curious about their conversation. She was also a shrewd person and could understand the unspoken meaning.
However, she was surprised that Tai Kang Security Company, with its significant influence in Qingzhou, would want to pledge allegiance to Lu Fan. This puzzled her greatly.
After Li Quan Gui and the others left, Bai Xue whispered, "Mr. Lu, aren't you hiding something from me? Why do I feel like you've become a lot more mysterious recently!"
"It might be your intuition!" Lu Fan smiled. "I don't have any secrets. The biggest secret might be my close ties with the Qinglong Sect."
Bai Xue instantly understood. So, Li Quan Gui was so respectful to Lu Fan because he feared the Qinglong Sect. This made sense, as the Qinglong Sect was the true power in Qingzhou.
Meanwhile, in the car, Li Quan Gui held Young Master Li's leg, tears welling up in his eyes. "Don't blame your father for being heartless. If I hadn't done this just now, you would have been in great danger today. Do you know who you offended to still be so arrogant?"
"Dad, has our Tai'an Security Company ever feared anyone!" Young Master Li said, "Even if that kid has the Qinglong Sect behind him, so what? Tai'an Security Company is on par with the Qinglong Sect. Although the Qinglong Sect has always been the boss in Qingzhou, they've gone too far!"
"You simply don't understand the stakes involved!" Li Quan Gui shook his head. "If it were just the Qinglong Sect, why would I have done such a perfect job? Mr. Lu has heavenly means. It would only take him a moment to deal with you. If you dare to provoke him again in the future, even I won't be able to protect you!"
Young Master Li's face turned ashen. He had always been arrogant and never expected to hit an iron plate today. Even his father's arrival would be useless.
"Regardless, you must remember everything I've said," Li Quan Gui said earnestly. "Otherwise, if it leads to your death, don't blame me for being heartless!"
Young Master Li dared not speak, his heart filled with fear. He had never seen such an expression on Li Quan Gui's face, nor did he know who Lu Fan really was to make Li Quan Gui act like this.
