Chapter 542 This Money You Dare Not Take
"Is he going to be alright?" Zhong Yun asked, her eyes filled with worry.
Chen Xuan had gotten into trouble because of their family. If anything happened to him, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
Fang Yao and Fang Xiaoyu exchanged glances, their expressions firm. "Mr. Chen is a very capable person. He doesn't speak empty words, Mom. Don't worry."
They had both witnessed Chen Xuan's extraordinary abilities. Perhaps this time, they would witness another display of Chen Xuan's unique magic...
A smoke after a meal, as blissful as an immortal.
Chen Xuan stopped at the doorway, just lighting a cigarette. Before he could take two puffs, a familiar cold snort was heard: "Cousin, this is the guy who beat me up. You can't let him get away with this."
Chen Xuan followed the sound.
The pig-headed man who had fled earlier returned with a group of people.
The middle-aged man at the front wore a suit, a cigar dangling from his lips, his nostrils flared.
Chen Xuan found the middle-aged man somewhat familiar and narrowed his eyes. The next moment, a knowing smile played on his lips.
Wasn't this Zhao Tianzhu, whom he had met at the Twilight Bar last night?
He hadn't expected Zhao Tianzhu to be the pig-headed man's backer.
"My dear cousin, don't you worry. Even if this kid has heaven-defying abilities, he can't stir up any trouble," Zhao Tianzhu said, taking a deep puff of his cigar with disdain.
"That's right. Can anyone afford to offend my cousin?" The pig-headed man also smiled smugly, as if relishing the thought of Chen Xuan's terrified expression.
"Mr. Zhao is mighty!" Fang Gang, who was following, quickly chimed in with a smile.
Zhao Tianzhu basked in the adulation, a look of enjoyment on his face.
Why else would he strive so hard to climb up if not to savor the feeling of superiority when being flattered?
Soon, the group arrived at the small room's door.
The pig-headed man looked at Chen Xuan, his eyes blazing with ferocity. "Kid, my cousin is here. You're doomed today. Get on your knees quickly!"
Cousin?
Chen Xuan looked at Zhao Tianzhu with a nonchalant expression and pointed at the pig-headed man. "You dog, are you sure you want to stick up for him?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianzhu's eyes narrowed, and his expression instantly turned cold.
Did that guy dare to insult him?
The pig-headed man's eyes widened. Did this guy dare to insult his cousin?
"Cousin, he insulted you!" the pig-headed man shouted.
Zhao Tianzhu nodded with a dark face. The eyelids that were already raised high shot down, and he instinctively blurted out, "Who the hell do you think... you are..."
The familiar face met Zhao Tianzhu's eyes.
He shuddered, and the cigar clamped between his fingers fell to the ground with a snap. He couldn't finish his sentence.
This face was too familiar; he would never forget it. This was someone even Young Master Gao treated with utmost respect!
Seeing Zhao Tianzhu's cigar fall, the pig-headed man glared at Chen Xuan. "You dog, my cousin's cigar costs over a thousand. If you don't pay, I'll break both your legs!"
"Pay? Alright, I'm afraid you won't dare to take it."
Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
"Won't dare? There's no money I don't dare to take. Who do you think you are?"
The pig-headed man burst into laughter, and the others roared with laughter too.
This kid really knew how to put on an act.
"If I don't dare to take it, I'm your grandson!"
"I don't have a grandson as big as you."
"Dare to trick me? You're courting death..." The pig-headed man's expression turned icy!
At that moment, Chen Xuan took out a wad of cash from his wallet and threw it at the pig-headed man's feet.
Seeing the cash, a hint of greed flashed in the pig-headed man's eyes. This was at least five or six thousand. He hadn't expected this young man, who looked so shabbily dressed, to be quite wealthy.
"Kid, pick up the money for me."
"If you want to pick it up, do it yourself. But I'll say it upfront, I said you won't dare to take this money!"
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, his gaze subtly sweeping over Zhao Tianzhu, who was already sweating profusely.
"Only a fool wouldn't dare to take it. I'll take it to show you."
The pig-headed man scoffed.
He had also decided that since this guy was so rich, he would extort Chen Xuan even more later. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to quell his resentment.
"Brother Pig Head, I'll get it for you!" a subordinate offered obsequiously.
"No need!"
The pig-headed man waved his hand, dismissing his subordinates.
Bending down to pick up the money would be beneath him, but he wanted to show Chen Xuan that he dared to take any money!
Before he could finish speaking, the pig-headed man unhesitatingly bent down to grab the wad of cash.
However, just as the pig-headed man's fingers were about to touch the money, Zhao Tianzhu behind him suddenly kicked him in the backside.
The pig-headed man didn't get the money. He stumbled forward and crashed headfirst into a patch of spinach.
It was winter now, and the ground was frozen hard as steel. When he looked up again, his face was covered in blood, his nose was smashed, and several teeth were knocked out.
"Who the hell dares to sneak attack me!"
The pig-headed man cursed, turning around to see Zhao Tianzhu standing behind him, his face contorted with rage and his expression extremely cold. Chen Xuan stood far away, with his hands in his pockets, a knowing smile playing on his lips.
He was instantly dumbfounded and asked blankly, "Cousin, why did you hit me?"
"And you still have the nerve to ask! Who told you, you dog, to trouble Mr. Chen? I think you've grown a death wish!"
Zhao Tianzhu went up and kicked him again, and the pig-headed man immediately let out a pig-like howl.
He had accidentally offended Chen Xuan yesterday and had already been punished by Young Master Gao. If he offended Chen Xuan again, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Everyone stared at Chen Xuan in stunned disbelief.
Zhao Tianzhu not only knew Chen Xuan but was also afraid of him?
The scene completely overturned everyone's perception.
"Cousin, I was wrong, I know I was wrong! I shouldn't have bothered Mr. Chen."
Even if the pig-headed man's brain was truly that of a pig, he understood the situation. This young man in front of him was not to be offended.
Seeing this, Zhao Tianzhu slowly retracted his foot.
He looked at Chen Xuan with trepidation, forcing a smile. "Mr. Chen, it's my fault for not disciplining him properly. I apologize to you here."
"My money is still on the ground, and it's a bit dirty."
Chen Xuan frowned as he looked at the money on the ground.
Zhao Tianzhu kicked the pig-headed man. "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get the money for Mr. Chen."
"I'm getting it! I'm getting it!"
The pig-headed man dared not hesitate for half a second. He scrambled to pick up the wad of cash from the ground, quickly wiped it with his sleeve, and knelt before Chen Xuan, holding the money with both hands and presenting it to him.
Looking at Chen Xuan's condescending gaze, the pig-headed man felt so ashamed he wanted to disappear into the ground.
He now understood why Chen Xuan had said that he wouldn't be able to take the money!
He truly couldn't take it!
"Good grandson, I told you you wouldn't be able to take this money." Chen Xuan smiled, took the money, and put it into his wallet.
"Mr. Chen, do you think we can just let this matter go?"
Seeing that Chen Xuan had accepted the money, Zhao Tianzhu felt a slight sense of relief and asked cautiously.
"It's over just like that? Not even a word of apology. That doesn't seem enough!" Chen Xuan's gaze turned cold, his eyes fixed on Zhao Tianzhu. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
"Get on your knees for Mr. Chen, all of you!"
Zhao Tianzhu's heart leaped into his throat. He barked coldly at everyone.
Since the pig-headed man was already kneeling, how could his subordinates dare not to? They knelt before Chen Xuan without hesitation, and Fang Gang knelt faster than anyone else!
Soon, these many people were all kneeling before Chen Xuan.
Fang Gang looked at Chen Xuan, who was being bowed to by so many people, and wondered if he was seeing things. He never imagined that the mother and daughter he had abandoned would actually get to know such an influential figure!
"The pig-headed guys are here! Hurry and help!"
Suddenly, a scream erupted from inside the room.
This was followed by a cacophony of clattering pots and pans. Soon, Zhong Yun, along with Fang Yao, Fang Xiaoyu, and Wei Linlin, rushed out of the room aggressively, brandishing cleavers and hoes.
But the next moment, they were stunned by the scene before them.
