Chapter 137 A Display of Ugliness

Soon, Cao Jianping arrived at the pool table, but to his surprise, someone had already taken refuge in this prime spot before him, and there was more than one person there.

The area under the pool table was already packed with seven or eight people, leaving no space at all.

"Xiao Chen, can't you see the old man is here? Hurry up and help him up!" A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses said to a young man next to him.

"Director Yuan, I... I just sprained my ankle, it's really inconvenient for me," the young man called Xiao Chen said, feigning embarrassment.

Although he wasn't an official, he was still a small business owner, and he was very shrewd. He could easily see through the current situation.

There's barely enough room for anyone in the audience right now. Are you going to ask him to help Cao Jianping? Who will take the empty seat then, him or Cao Jianping?

Isn't the answer obvious?

The real reason given was to ask him to help Cao Jianping, but in reality, they wanted him to move to a different seat for Cao Jianping.

When Director Yuan heard that Xiao Chen had publicly humiliated him, his face immediately darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Chen Tao, do you still want to keep your shop running?"

Faced with Director Yuan's threat, Chen Tao's expression changed slightly. However, thinking of the tragic state of the two directors who had just been shot and killed by Chen Yu, his heart tightened. In the face of life and death, money was nothing!

Thinking of this, Chen Tao took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes, and roared, "Yuan Zhiyong, if you want to leave, you leave yourself! I'm not leaving!"

"You...you've really gone too far!" Director Yuan, also known as Yuan Zhiyong, never expected that this small boss, who was usually so meek and obedient in front of him, would be so tough today. He was so angry that he trembled all over.

Cao Jianping was already extremely anxious and had no patience left to listen to the two arguing.

Seeing that Chen Yu's pistol had been replaced by an automatic rifle, he didn't care about manners anymore. He simply dragged out the person closest to him and then crawled inside himself.

Unfortunately, the person who was dragged out was Director Yuan.

Yuan Zhiyong never expected that he would be abandoned by Cao Jianping. When he saw that Chen Yu's gaze seemed to be looking in their direction, he suddenly felt weak all over and his legs couldn't help but tremble.

Even so, Yuan Zhiyong did not dare to resist Cao Jianping. Having been in the government office for a long time, he had long developed a nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

But at this critical juncture of life and death, he couldn't do nothing.

So he immediately hardened his heart and pulled out the only two children, who looked to be around ten years old, from under the pool table.

Then, ignoring the strange looks from the audience, he slipped inside.
