"This is an internal matter for the Meng family. Anyone who dares to make a move should not blame me for being ruthless with my blade." Meng Hu slammed his broadsword heavily on the ground. "Come on, let's see who's got the guts."
As expected, the group of underlings were too frightened to step forward.
After all, Meng Hu's recklessness was truly well-known, and it was indeed inappropriate for them to get involved in the fight between these two cousins from the Meng family.
For a moment, the group looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
"Why aren't you moving? Did Meng Hu scare you all to death by himself? You're all trash. Today, I'll kill anyone who doesn't make a move." Meng Guo was almost bursting with rage.
He never dreamed that Meng Hu could scare his group of henchmen like this. He roared, kicked one of his henchmen to the ground, and, ignoring the blood gushing from his forehead, grabbed a knife and started slashing wildly.
"Go, let's grab him first." Seeing this, the group of people dared not stand still. They stepped forward and attacked Meng Hu.
"Stop!" Just then, a furious roar came from over, as Meng Changyou arrived.
"Dad, you're here." Meng Guo suppressed his anger: "Meng Hu is helping outsiders cause trouble here."
"Shut up first." Meng Changyou's face grew even more gloomy when he saw Ye Xingchen.
"Dad..." Meng Guo looked completely bewildered.
His father usually dotes on him the most and is extremely protective of him, but has he taken the wrong medicine today? His head was even smashed and bleeding, but his father remained unmoved, which is different from his usual persona.
Meng Changyou ignored his son and stepped forward, forcing a smile: "Mr. Ye, what's wrong?"
Meng Guo was taken aback; he never imagined that his father would know Ye Xingchen.
Moreover, he addressed the other party with great respect, which was a disaster. Ye Xingchen's identity was extraordinary; even his father had to give him some face.
It seems like I got beaten up for nothing today.
"I had a misunderstanding with your son and couldn't help but crack his skull open. I hope President Meng won't blame me?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
Meng Changyou was furious. He really wanted to curse. His son had been hit on the head with a bottle. How could he not be angry?
However, considering that Ye Xingchen was his father's savior, and that he wasn't ready to confront him directly, he could only smile and say, "How could that be? This kid has always lacked discipline. It would be best if Mr. Ye could teach him a lesson."
"Dad..." Meng Guo was both shocked and furious. Had he really suffered a beating for nothing?
But before he could finish speaking, Meng Changyi glared at him with a sharp look, and he had no choice but to swallow the rest of his words.
Despite his playboyish nature, he still needs to be discerning. Something is clearly amiss with what happened today; the young man in front of him is no ordinary person.
"That's good. I'll be going now if there's nothing else. I'm so sorry for making such a mess of this place." Ye Xingchen looked completely harmless.
"It's alright, I can afford this loss." Meng Changyou forced a smile.
"Alright, since there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Ye Xingchen pulled Yi Qingmeng aside, turned around and walked out.
"Second Uncle, put today's losses on my tab, and I'll settle the accounts for you later," Meng Hu said with a grin, putting away his large machete.
"No need, this small loss is nothing." Meng Changyou's face darkened.
Meng Hu's words were entirely a joke at him. There was no way this guy would come over to settle the score for him. If he were really stupid enough to wait for the other party to settle the score, he would really be a fool.
"Alright, I'll be going now." Meng Hu nodded. Since there was no need to pay compensation, he wouldn't stand on ceremony. What if he really had to pay hundreds of thousands? He turned around and followed Ye Xingchen out.
"Dad, who is that bastard? Why did they just let him go like that?" Meng Hu asked, both surprised and angry, after the two men had disappeared.
“He is the old man’s savior. If it weren’t for him, the old man wouldn’t have made it this far. Who do you think he is?” Meng Changyou said with a dark face.
"The old man is alright?" Meng Guo was taken aback. "When you went to the hospital, wasn't he already given a critical condition notice? How come he's alright now?"
“Not only is he alright, but he’s in even better spirits than before. I don’t know when he’ll be able to go to his coffin.” Meng Changyou said through gritted teeth, “It was that kid who cured him just now, otherwise, after tonight, the Meng family would be mine.”
"Is that kid's medical skill really that good?" Meng Guo asked with a stern face.
"Anyway, he's pretty amazing. He pulled the old man back from the brink of death." Meng Changyou said unwillingly, "I've been planning this for so long, and this guy ruined it."
"What should we do then?" Meng Guo was also getting anxious: "The old man is really lucky to be alive, how come he didn't die?"
"With this kid around, the old man won't die anytime soon." Meng Changyou gritted his teeth: "We have to think of a way."
"Dad, I'll think of a way. I'm quite familiar with that young master of the Jin family." Meng Guo thought for a moment and said, "One of his capable subordinates is in Yun City. He wants to open up the domestic drug market through Yun City and also bring some back with him. He has a master with him."
"Jin Xiang?" Meng Changyou turned his head and glanced at his son, a fierce look appearing in his eyes.
“Yes, that’s him. You know his identity. He’s from Jinluo City.” Meng Guo said, “Most importantly, his surname is Jin. Although he didn’t say it explicitly, the Grand Lord of Jinluo City also has the surname Jin. Their relationship is obvious.”
“Alright, let’s get to know that young master Jin better and find out what he’s thinking. If he can help us deal with this kid surnamed Ye, then our cooperation will be a natural outcome.” Meng Changyou nodded with a sinister expression: “No matter what, we must get rid of Ye Xingchen, this stumbling block.”
“No problem. That kid dared to hit me today. I’ll make sure he dies a horrible death.” Meng Guo’s expression was just as sinister as his father’s.
"Brother Ye, do you need me to take you back?" After they went outside, Meng Hu ran up to him and asked solicitously.
When he saw Yi Qingmeng holding Ye Xingchen's hand, he slapped his forehead and said, "Look at me, I almost ruined Brother Ye's good time. Shall I send you a car?"
"Just give me the car keys." Ye Xingchen turned to look at him. "Were you taking advantage of the situation tonight?"
"What else can we do if we don't take the opportunity to make a move?" Meng Hu did not deny it: "I didn't compete with them before, not because I couldn't win, but because of my grandfather."
“Now that they’re both going to harm Grandpa, why should I be polite to them? If I keep holding back, I might lose my life.”
