"Dare to kill me and see what happens, I am from the top elite family, Hao Jia..."
*Pfft!*
Before Hao Chen could utter his last word, a *pfft* sound was heard, and the Ming Hong Saber swiftly pierced through Hao Chen's skull!
Instantly, blood splattered everywhere!
Hao Chen's enraged eyes revealed shock and fear. He could never have imagined that the brat, inferior to even a third-rate elite family, would actually dare to kill him!
*Bang!*
Hao Chen crashed heavily to the ground, his eyes still reflecting the look of his final moments.
Little did he know, until his death, that the impoverished boy in his eyes was actually Wang Er Zhu, the richest man in the capital!
A deathly silence filled the scene, and the air was thick with the scent of blood.
"The Hao family... is backed by a top Japanese elite family..."
After a long while, Xing Tian Qi, dumbfounded, stared at Hao Chen's corpse and dumbly reminded them.
"What? Are you referring to the Ito family!"
As soon as Xing Tian Qi spoke, Xing Ning Ning looked at her father with worry. Suddenly, she seemed to recall something and pressed on, "Father, is it the Ito family?"
Xing Tian Qi remained silent, merely nodding slightly. A trace of worry flickered in his shocked eyes.
The Ito family, the foremost among Japan's top elite families, an ancient lineage with centuries of heritage!
And Wang Er Zhu, though now the richest man in the capital, was ultimately just the son of a declining family in the capital. The disparity was immense!
The more Xing Tian Qi thought about it, the more worried he became. He even regretted not stopping Er Zhu, but it was too late now...
"Mr. Wang, you must run, and never return to China!"
Xing Ning Ning, in a frenzy, pushed Er Zhu while shouting loudly, her eyes filled with terror.
The Ito family was an existence that even the reclusive families of the capital dared not offend, let alone Mr. Wang!
Moreover, Japan harbored inherent prejudice against Chinese people. If the Ito family learned of this, Mr. Wang would die a terrible death!
"Yes, hurry and leave! The Ito family is not someone you can afford to offend!"
Beside them, Xing Tian Qi also gestured frantically, urging Er Zhu to flee.
"Just the Ito family? If they come looking, I'll just destroy them."
Compared to the worry and fear of the Xing Tian Qi family, Er Zhu appeared much calmer. He brushed aside Xing Ning Ning's hand, his gaze indifferent as he looked in the direction of Japan.
The Ito family?
He wasn't afraid of them coming; he was afraid they wouldn't!
"Who killed my son!"
Just then, an angry roar attracted everyone's attention. Turning their heads, they saw a man with graying hair, clenching his fists, glaring fiercely at them.
Upon seeing the man, Xing Tian Qi collapsed to the ground in fear. Xing Ning Ning and Madam Xing's faces also paled.
It was Hao Chen's father, Hao Bo Yi!
It was over. Er Zhu was surely doomed today!
"It was me..."
"I killed him. What are you going to do about it?"
Xing Tian Qi stepped forward without hesitation to confess, but before he could finish, Er Zhu also stepped forward.
The Hao family was indeed beyond the reach of families like the Xing family, but for him, Wang Er Zhu, it was nothing!
If he wanted to, he could acquire all the top-tier families in the capital!
"You are?"
Hao Bo Yi was furious. Just as he was about to order his bodyguards to act, his gaze fell upon Er Zhu's face, and he suddenly seemed to realize something, scrutinizing Er Zhu with a puzzled expression.
"Wang Er Zhu, the richest man in the capital?"
Er Zhu remained silent, but Hao Bo Yi's eyes widened, and he pointed at Er Zhu in disbelief, exclaiming.
Although the Hao family had no business dealings with Er Zhu, they were well aware of him among the capital's top-tier families.
He had, single-handedly, acquired all the assets of Japanese businessmen in the capital, preventing those Japanese merchants from daring to come to the capital again!
He had also, single-handedly, acquired families like the Fang family and Xu family, reclusive families!
Furthermore, this person was Elder Feng's adopted son and had close ties with many top families in the capital!
...
These astonishing identities left Hao Bo Yi utterly dumbfounded. He even regretted coming for revenge.
"Dad, this kid can't possibly be Wang Er Zhu. As far as I know, Wang Er Zhu is still in Japan right now!"
As Hao Bo Yi was in shock, Hao Liang, Hao Chen's younger brother, glanced at Er Zhu disdainfully, his eyes full of mockery.
This poor kid was quite clever, trying to impersonate Wang Er Zhu to escape this predicament. Unfortunately, he wasn't fooled!
"Idiot, he *is* Wang Er Zhu!"
Hearing his son's words, Hao Bo Yi also faltered. But when he saw Er Zhu's calm and composed gaze, he turned and slapped his son.
Hao Liang's face instantly swelled. He didn't understand why his father said that, but seeing the anger in his father's eyes, he didn't dare to ask.
"He bullied my friend, so I killed him."
Er Zhu glanced at Hao Chen contemptuously, his casual demeanor suggesting he had merely slaughtered a chicken.
Hearing this, Hao Liang's anger surged even more!
For the Hao family, let alone bullying someone, they could kill the entire family and get away with it!
"Mr. Wang, I beg you to teach this unfilial son a lesson for me!"
Just as Hao Liang was about to charge forward, he heard his father utter these words, even bowing respectfully to the young man!
Hao Liang's anger intensified. He even thought his father had lost his mind!
"Dad, he's just afraid of dying and is impersonating Wang Er Zhu!"
Hao Liang pointed at Er Zhu furiously, his tone roaring with an air of having seen through him.
"Shut up!"
Before he could finish, he saw his father's eyes, filled with rage, gritting his teeth and shouting.
"Er Zhu!"
Just as Hao Liang was about to speak again, he heard a woman's voice. Turning his head, he saw a woman with tear-filled eyes rushing into Er Zhu's embrace.
Hao Liang didn't recognize Er Zhu, but he recognized this woman. She was his business partner, Li Mei!
Rumor had it that she was Wang Er Zhu's fiancée!
Hao Liang's eyes widened, his shock reaching an extreme. Recalling all that had happened, he finally understood why his father had cursed him.
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to wait for me at home?"
Er Zhu gently stroked the young woman's head in his arms, a trace of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
He had intended to return home after resolving matters here, but he hadn't expected Li Mei to arrive so early.
"I felt restless at home. I wanted to see you the first moment possible!"
Li Mei tilted her exquisite little face upwards, her eyes gazing at Er Zhu with deep affection.
Great, Er Zhu and Ning Ning were both safe!
"Miss... Miss Li, is he really Wang Er Zhu?"
As the two gazed at each other affectionately, Hao Liang's voice broke the ambiguous atmosphere.
Seeing Hao Liang's shocked gaze, Li Mei didn't speak, merely smiling and nodding.
*Boom!*
Hao Liang felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He had partnered with Li Mei precisely to curry favor with Wang Er Zhu, and now, he had offended him today!
"I apologize, Mr. Wang. It was my poor judgment. I beg you, for the sake of being Miss Li's business partner, spare me this once."
Hao Liang fell to his knees before Er Zhu with a *thump*. He kowtowed repeatedly, his voice even carrying a hint of a tremor!
