Seeing the Chen family go bankrupt, everyone who had been bullied by Chen Cheng came up to kick them while they were down.

Nothing is surprising in a chaotic bar, and the people in the other booths are used to it too.

"Isn't this a trap set by our elder brother Chen Cheng? I wonder if we can afford to pay for it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter erupted. Their laughter was just as unrestrained as Chen Cheng's arrogance had been before.

The man who shoved the phone into Chen Cheng's face continued to mock him. After all, his family had also made their fortune in construction, and he and Chen Cheng belonged to the same circle. It was only because the Chen family was superior to his that he had to be respectful to Chen Cheng.

Thinking about those frustrating days in the past, he felt a surge of anger.

Chen Cheng covered his ears, his face full of horror. "Impossible! How could my Chen family, with its vast wealth and power, possibly go bankrupt? It must be those unscrupulous reporters who wrote this nonsense. They're just spouting rubbish."

Thinking of this, Chen Cheng snatched the phone from his face, threw it on the ground, and pointed at the man in front of him, "My Chen family can never go bankrupt. You've always been able to hide behind my family, relying on my family to eat the leftovers I don't want. You'll never surpass me in this lifetime!"

Seeing his phone lying on the ground and hearing Chen Cheng's boastful words, the man's face turned cold. He suddenly pushed Chen Cheng to the ground, and Chen Cheng, caught off guard, was knocked down.

But his mind was completely focused on his family's bankruptcy. He thought about how his glorious days might never return, how those he had bullied would retaliate a thousandfold, and how those who had once fawned over him would suddenly be crawling all over him and defecating on him. He couldn't accept that.

As he fell to the ground, he muttered to himself, "Impossible, my Chen family can't go bankrupt. Don't listen to that woman's nonsense. My Chen family is a large and powerful family, and we have the Wang family above us. How could we possibly go bankrupt? That woman must have instigated Wen Wen and the others to make up stories."

Chen Cheng still doesn't believe the Chen family has gone bankrupt, even though he saw the news on his phone.

The man who first shoved the phone in Chen Cheng's face sneered, "Chen Cheng, you still don't believe me? Look at you, you're like a dog, still hoping this is fake. Chen Cheng, how can you be so shameless?"

Others chimed in, "Chen Cheng, stop refusing to believe this and that. If it were me, I'd hurry home, make some money, and go abroad to avoid trouble for a while."

The man was right. Before the cops come to raid the place, wouldn't it be better to make some money and go out to lay low?

When his father went to jail, the Chen family's former enemies tried every means to kill Chen Shih-hao, their only son, and put all the remaining debts on Chen Cheng's shoulders.

And with Chen Cheng's rusty brain, how could he possibly pay off his debts?

At that point, Chen Cheng will have no chance of turning things around.

As Chen Cheng lay on the ground, listening to the mocking laughter around him, he felt a wave of irony. These people used to be his lackeys, trying to climb up to him and get their families connected with the Chen family.

The man who first showed Chen Cheng the news of the bankruptcy picked up a wine glass and smashed it at Chen Cheng with great force. The glass shattered upon contact with Chen Cheng's face, and shards of glass scraped across his face, leaving many cuts. Wine streamed down his face, and the glass also left a bruise on his forehead. He looked extremely pitiful.

"Chen Cheng, you look like a lapdog right now!"

"Chen Cheng, why don't you stand up and keep being arrogant? Why aren't you being arrogant anymore?"

"Hahaha, the more glorious you were before, the more miserable you are now."

"Look at your dad. The latest news is that your dad, Chen Shih-hao, has been taken away by the cops."

"And another thing, your house has been sealed off, and now you're just a homeless stray dog."

"Chen Cheng, you're so fair-skinned, why don't you bend over and let me have my way with you, and I'll give you a house?"

"No way, bro, you actually like this kind of thing? You can't judge a book by its cover!"

Someone picked up a wine glass and poured the wine in it onto Chen Cheng's face, body, and groin.

Chen Cheng resisted, not knowing who he kicked, only to hear a "damn" sound, followed by waves of pain all over his body.

Chen Cheng fought back after being hit, but he was met with even more violent punches and kicks. He dared not fight back and could only curl up and cower in the corner, enduring the dense rain of punches.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Chen Cheng, who was like a quail, not fighting back or arguing back, they lost interest for a moment. They preferred the sight of a living creature rising up in resistance to the sight of a dead man enduring beatings.

Immediately afterward, a phone rang. While everyone was still trying to figure out who was calling, Chen Cheng, who was huddled to the side, took out the phone with trembling hands and immediately heard a familiar voice.

"Chen Cheng! Who did you offend?! You ruined our family, even the Wang family couldn't save us! Who do you think you are?! You're such a good son, sending your own father to jail!"

On the other end of the line was his father Chen Shih-hao's voice. His tense thoughts suddenly collapsed at this moment. He had also firmly believed that what Su Ran said was false, and he did not believe the news reported on the Internet. But when he heard his father speak, all the strength in his body was drained away.

He collapsed to the ground like a zombie, his phone lying on the floor. The person on the other end was still talking, but Chen Cheng could no longer hear it.

His family's legacy, which he had always been proud of, could be easily destroyed by a single, casual remark from someone else.

Even the Wang family couldn't protect them, so what exactly is that woman's identity?

She never revealed her identity; why did she hide it?

If the other party were truly so powerful, he wouldn't have spoken up for Mu Yao.

Chen Cheng deeply regretted his actions.

The thought that if she could bankrupt the Chen family with a single sentence, she could also bring them back to life was unbearable.

Suddenly.

Chen Cheng seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned around to look.

But the figures of those people could no longer be seen; only a few wine glasses filled with wine remained.

The string in Chen Cheng's heart snapped suddenly. No one could save his Chen family. From now on, he could no longer indulge in debauchery, no one would clean up his messes when he caused trouble, and he could no longer bully others at will because of his family's affairs.

In an instant, he fell from heaven to hell.

He was surrounded by jeers and a number of people pointing and whispering about him; they were all his former lackeys.

......

Su Ran and her group on the other side.

They left the moment they made sarcastic remarks to Chen Cheng; they had no interest in witnessing his retaliation.

Since they had all been drinking and couldn't drive, they simply stood by the car, enjoying the evening breeze, and waited for their drivers to pick them up.

Lin Ruanruan didn't follow Wen Wen's side, but instead looked at Su Ran with starry eyes.
