Chapter 948 Banished to the Cold Palace
Upon hearing this, Old Master Bai was so enraged by Bai Hongsheng's words that he almost exploded.
Seeing that Old Master Bai remained silent, Bai Hongsheng, thinking he had angered the old man and the Bai Ye father and son, became ecstatic. "Father, I think some people are no longer fit to stay at the Bai family headquarters. Only the branch offices are barely suitable for certain individuals!"
"I suggest we drive some people to the branch offices!"
Although he had been eagerly wanting to drive Bai Ye and the others away from the Bai family, he knew that things had to be done step by step. Now that Bai Ye's lineage had returned to the Bai Long Chamber of Commerce headquarters, he wanted to use this opportunity to force Bai Ye back to the branch.
Old Master Bai took a breath, controlled his emotions, and said with deep agreement, "I think some people should go to the branch office to reflect properly!"
As he spoke, Old Master Bai shot a cold glance.
Hearing this, Bai Hongsheng was surprised that things were going so smoothly and excitedly said, "Father, you agree?"
"Yes, I very much agree, extremely agree!" Old Master Bai nodded.
A look of wild joy surged onto Bai Hongsheng's face, "Father, you are truly wise!"
After speaking, Bai Hongsheng looked condescendingly at Bai Ye, "Don't blame Father for disregarding our father-son relationship. You should blame yourselves for being too arrogant and overbearing!"
"Alright, you pack your things and return to the branch office immediately! I'm telling you, the headquarters is not a place for people like you!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Ye stood there unmoved, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
"Not moving? Shall I have someone pack your things for you?"
Bai Hongsheng said mockingly.
This guy still isn't moving, it seems he really doesn't want to leave!
However, he could understand. After all, it was not easy for Bai Ye to return to the headquarters, and now he was being banished to the cold palace. He was certainly unwilling, but what could unwillingness do?
He turned to look at Old Master Bai, "Father, look at my brother here. He doesn't listen at all. You've already spoken, and he still won't leave!"
Tattling and slandering were Bai Hongsheng's usual tactics.
"When did I tell him to go to the branch office?"
Old Master Bai finally spoke.
"Ah? Father... Didn't you just say he should go back to the branch office quickly?"
Bai Hongsheng frowned, asking with a face full of confusion.
"I said that *you* are going to the branch office!"
The cold voice struck Bai Hongsheng's mind like a thunderclap.
"Ah? What?"
Bai Feng, who was beside him, also changed his expression.
His face was filled with disbelief.
"Father, did you make a mistake? It was them who indulged their subordinates in beating my son, your grandson!"
Bai Hongsheng suspected that Old Master Bai had made a mistake.
These people beat someone and then banished him to the cold palace? What kind of situation was this?
"You are not mistaken!"
Bai Hongsheng quickly said, "Father, why?"
"Why? You are not qualified to know!"
Old Master Bai glared fiercely at Bai Hongsheng and snorted, "We will settle this later."
After speaking, Old Master Bai walked up to Chen Xuan, bowed respectfully, and said with a look of shame, "Mr. Chen, I apologize for the trouble caused! This old man apologizes to you here?!"
This scene made Bai Hongsheng's face turn ashen.
What?
How could Old Master Bai apologize to this fellow?
Bai Feng, standing nearby, was also shocked.
He stared intently at Chen Xuan, wondering if this fellow was truly a big shot.
"An apology is all?" Chen Xuan said expressionlessly.
Old Master Bai trembled all over. Although he was also a big figure and a martial artist, for some reason, under Chen Xuan's imposing presence, his legs felt weak!
Trembling, he gritted his teeth, turned to look at Bai Hongsheng, and said, "Aren't you going to hurry over and apologize to Mr. Chen!"
"Father, he's just a live-in son-in-law of the Su family, and he even offended Su Ning. Why should I apologize to him?"
Bai Hongsheng had finally realized who the young man in front of him was: Chen Xuan, the Su family's live-in son-in-law!
But even as a live-in son-in-law of the Su family, he didn't have the right to make him kneel and apologize, right?
"Shut up!"
Old Master Bai roared, kicked Bai Hongsheng's knee, and with a thud, Bai Hongsheng knelt on the ground.
"Father..."
Bai Hongsheng felt immense humiliation and struggled to get up.
But Old Master Bai angrily said, "If you dare to stand up, you can get out of the Bai family!"
Bai Hongsheng stiffened and obediently knelt on the ground again.
Since he was a teenager, Bai Hongsheng had been working hard to inherit the Bai family's business. He didn't want all his efforts to be in vain.
He called out unwillingly, "Father, why?"
Old Master Bai stopped talking nonsense and turned to look at Bai Feng, "You too, come over here and kneel to apologize to Mr. Chen!"
Since even Bai Hongsheng had knelt, Bai Feng didn't dare to say another word. He quickly crawled over, but his arm was broken, and with the support of others, he managed to crawl over with difficulty and kneel before Chen Xuan.
He was extremely shocked in his heart, never expecting that this fellow could make even the formidable Old Master Bai so fearful.
At this moment, Bai Feng regretted everything.
Old Master Bai looked at Bai Hongsheng and his son with a stern expression, "From now on, you two father and son will get out of here and go to the branch office to reflect properly!"
"We don't want to go to the branch office, please don't send us to the branch office!"
Bai Hongsheng and Bai Feng wailed, begging for mercy repeatedly.
The branch office was no different from the cold palace, and they did not want to go.
But no matter what they said, Old Master Bai did not listen.
They despaired, never imagining that fortunes would turn, and it would be their turn to be driven to the branch office.
Old Master Bai looked at Chen Xuan, "Mr. Chen, are you satisfied with this arrangement?"
Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Then let it be so. However, if such a situation arises again, do not blame me for not showing mercy!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
Old Master Bai was extremely grateful.
He knew that if Chen Xuan had truly wanted to act, Bai Hongsheng and Bai Feng would have been finished long ago. This was Chen Xuan showing mercy.
Bai Hongsheng looked very uncomfortable. It was clearly this brat who had beaten his son, yet Old Master Bai was thanking him. What kind of situation was this?
At this thought, he looked at Chen Xuan, his eyes filled with resentment.
"Alright, hurry up and pack your things to report to the branch office!"
Old Master Bai glanced at Bai Hongsheng and the two of them, waving his hand impatiently.
Bai Hongsheng quickly had someone help Bai Feng leave, but they did not immediately rush to the branch office. Instead, they went to the hospital to have Bai Feng's bones set.
After Bai Hongsheng and his son left, Old Master Bai looked at Chen Xuan and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, have you found the medicinal herbs?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan's eyes instantly narrowed, and he hurriedly turned to look into the crowd.
At this moment, where was the fortune-teller's figure?
"Damn it, that fortune-teller has run away!"
Chen Xuan anxiously slapped his thigh. He still wanted to ask this fortune-teller why he had appeared here and why he had helped him so much, but he had vanished.
"Yunxi, did you see that fortune-teller?"
"He was just here, and then he disappeared. He probably snuck away." Su Yunxi said.
"Sigh!"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan sighed.
