"Do not call the police just yet. Let's not make this a bigger issue!"
The speaker was a middle-aged man, clad in a black, traditional Chinese suit, his frame so gaunt he appeared skeletal.
Emerging from behind him were no fewer than a dozen black-clad bodyguards.
"President Chen!" As soon as he appeared, a chorus of greetings erupted.
"Dad!" Chen Shimei latched onto the man like a drowning sailor, shouting, "You're here! Quickly break this Ye fellow's legs and toss him out! How dare he hit me and publicly humiliate me!"
Chen Dehan observed his son's bruised and swollen face, the blood trickling from his mouth, and his tattered clothes. He looked as though he'd just endured a brutal beating, his limbs still bound tightly. A frigid glint flickered in his eyes.
With a subtle gesture, he signaled to his left and right.
Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward, moving to unfasten Chen Shimei's restraints.
"Hmm?" However, Ye Feng advanced, his movement imperceptible, and halted their approach. He then addressed Chen Dehan. "President Chen, what is the meaning of this?"
Chen Dehan's brow furrowed slightly. "You were the one who struck Shimei, is that correct?"
"I've already been briefed on the events that transpired. Given Shimei's lapse in judgment this time, if you promise to keep silent about everything today, I might refrain from pursuing the matter!"
His gaze turned icy. "However, should you prove uncooperative, be prepared to face the repercussions of antagonizing our Chen family!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but let out a laugh. "As they say, the rot starts from the top!"
"Chen Shimei must have inherited his unruly behavior from you, hadn't he?"
"At the slightest provocation, he demands my legs be broken, tries to force me to kneel and grovel in apology. He even brandished a firearm, illegal in the Dragon Country, and fired it in public. And yet you term it mere 'negligence'... Even Magnate Newston of Guangzhou, who met his downfall recently, wasn't this audacious!"
Chen Dehan merely scoffed. "Do you truly believe I'll concede to your demands? Where is your proof?"
"Who can attest that Shimei actually fired? Who can confirm the firearm wasn't merely a toy?"
"The gun lies on the floor, numerous witnesses are present, and the surveillance camera above is still operational!" Ye Feng retorted with a cold smile.
"Oh, is that so?" The corners of Chen Dehan's lips twisted into a mocking curve.
At that precise moment, an employee of South Guangdong Fenghua Jewelry Group stooped, retrieved the pistol Ye Feng had propelled aside, and presented it respectfully to Chen Dehan.
Grasping the pistol, Chen Dehan surveyed the assembled crowd. "Everyone here, did you witness Shimei discharging his weapon publicly just now?"
Numerous employees of South Guangdong Fenghua Jewelry Group, including the receptionist who had earlier soiled herself from fear, promptly shook their heads. "We saw nothing! We witnessed no such thing, President Chen!"
Chen Dehan then turned his attention to a bodyguard nearby. "And the surveillance camera? Did it record anything significant?"
The bodyguard pulled out his phone, swiftly made a call, and after a brief exchange, reported to Chen Dehan, "President Chen, the surveillance department regrets to inform you that the memory card in the lobby unfortunately malfunctioned. All previously recorded footage has been lost."
Handing the pistol to the bodyguard, Chen Dehan fixed his gaze back on Ye Feng. "If you know what's best for you, forget today's events and leave immediately!"
"Director Chen, aren't you underestimating us a tad too profoundly?" Chen Xuan could no longer contain her indignation. "You've wiped the surveillance records right before our eyes and are colluding with your employees to commit perjury!"
"Do you truly believe Lingyun Real Estate is a pushover?"
"Precisely!" Zhang Youting added with a cold snort. "If you fail to provide myself and President Ye with a satisfactory explanation for today's fiasco, we will not let this matter rest!"
"President Ye?" It was only then that Chen Dehan began to scrutinize Ye Feng with genuine interest. "Since when did a President Ye emerge from your Lingyun Real Estate?" he inquired, a note of disbelief in his voice.
"He is the proprietor of Lingyun Real Estate! Is President Chen's intelligence network so severely lacking?" Zhang Youting retorted mockingly.
"What?!" Upon hearing Zhang Youting's declaration, Chen Dehan involuntarily gasped, his face instantly draining of color!
