“My friend’s surname is An. There’s only one family with the surname An in Yanjing. If you seize the opportunity, you can soar to great heights. But if you offend them, there will be no benefit.”
Cheng Tao sneered: "In this world, human life is worthless."
"Are you threatening me?" Du Fang was furious at Cheng Tao's change in attitude: "Ye Xingchen, let's go."
"Leave? If you don't hand over the stuff, I'm afraid no one is leaving." Just then, the door opened, and a young man walked in with his head held high.
This guy was arrogant, even more so than those spoiled rich kids. After he came in, four men in black stood behind him.
These men in black were wearing sunglasses and exuded a faint murderous aura; they were clearly not ordinary bodyguards.
"Young Master An, you've arrived." Cheng Tao quickly stood up, his smile as bright as a chrysanthemum.
"The matter wasn't settled?" An Shao sat down and glanced at the two of them.
"These two are asking for trouble. Du Fang, you know what kind of person An Shao is, right? You can't protect yourself as the boss's boyfriend." Cheng Tao said coldly, "Du Fang, you know what kind of person An Shao is, right? You can't protect yourself as the boss's boyfriend."
"So this is your classmate with the purification technology? Heh, someone overseas is interested in your technology, so they offered a price to transfer it, right?" An Shao said, "Don't be ungrateful."
"I'm really going to be ungrateful today," Ye Xingchen smiled. "I told you, the technology isn't being transferred."
"Who are you?" Young Master An raised an eyebrow.
"Young Master An, he's Du Fang's boyfriend and also her boss." Cheng Tao added fuel to the fire, "It's all because of this kid's interference, otherwise I would have won Du Fang over long ago."
"Kid, do you know how much your life is worth?" Young Master An sneered. "You don't work in Yanjing, so it's normal that you don't know who I am. But you can ask around in Tianhai circles and find out who I, An Mingyu, am and what good will come of offending me."
"No need to ask, I know that the An family in Yanjing is a revolutionary family. An Zhiguo is your father, right?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"You've heard of my dad?" An Mingyu looked at Ye Xingchen in surprise. "Then you should cooperate even more. Don't make trouble for yourself, or you won't even know how you died."
"I saw your father this morning. Even if your father were here, he wouldn't dare say what you just said." Ye Xingchen said with a sneer, "You two are truly father and son, relying on your power to seize and plunder. Do you really think there's no one in this world who can deal with you?"
"Who are you talking to, you surnamed Ye? This is Young Master An, show some respect!" Cheng Tao roared.
“I know his surname is An, I don’t need him to remind me.” Ye Xingchen said coldly, “If I were him, I would call his father right now to ask who I am.”
“Interesting.” An Mingyu laughed: “After leaving Yanjing, who dares to challenge our An family? In that case, I won’t hold back.”
An Mingyu waved his hand: "Break both of this kid's legs."
As a direct descendant of one of the top red families in Yanjing's social circles, An Mingyu can be considered a princeling. Breaking someone's legs or taking their life is nothing to him.
His bodyguards, receiving orders, moved forward to deal with Ye Xingchen, but in a flash, Ye Xingchen darted forward, his arms swinging...
With several thuds, Ye Xingchen mercilessly crushed the bodyguards.
After dealing with the bodyguards, Ye Xingchen stepped forward and reached out to grab An Mingyu's throat.
An Mingyu was furious. He reached into his waistband, pulled out a pistol, and pointed it at Ye Xingchen.
But his hand tightened, and Ye Xingchen snatched the gun away.
"Your name is Ye Xingchen? Okay, you've got some skills." An Mingyu had seen his share of ups and downs.
He forced himself to remain calm: "What our An family needs is someone like you. How about this, from now on you work for the An family, and I guarantee no one will dare to cause you any trouble."
"Work for your An family? Even your father wouldn't dare say that. Like I said, contact your father and find out who I am." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
"Who do you think you are, surnamed Ye? You think you're so great just because you run a lousy company?" Cheng Tao seized the opportunity to express his loyalty: "Young Master An could crush you with a single finger."
"Your dog?" Ye Xingchen raised an eyebrow.
"Ye Xingchen, what did you say?" Cheng Tao roared in anger.
With a click, Ye Xingchen cocked his gun and fired a shot at Cheng Tao's thigh without hesitation.
Bang... Blood gushed from Cheng Tao's thigh. He stared at Ye Xingchen in disbelief, took two steps back, and collapsed to the ground with a thud, letting out a pig-like scream.
Du Fang hadn't expected things to escalate to this point. She gripped Ye Xingchen's clothes tightly, feeling somewhat frightened.
"It's alright, I'm here." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
"Ah, Ye Xingchen, you dare to fire?" Cheng Tao was both shocked and furious. The pain in his thigh was excruciating, and his artery had been damaged, causing blood to gush out like it was free.
“You’ve got guts,” An Mingyu said coldly. “Even if he’s a dog, he’s still a dog of the An family. You have to consider the owner before you beat a dog. You hurt him and made me lose face.”
"This shot was supposed to hit you." Ye Xingchen sneered, raising the gun in his hand and aiming it at An Mingyu.
"You dare touch me and see what happens." An Mingyu's expression changed.
"Killing you isn't necessary right now, but I believe I can cripple you, poke a few bloody holes in you, and make you live without dignity." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly: "How about we take a gamble?"
An Mingyu dared not speak. He wasn't stupid; he could tell that Ye Xingchen was no ordinary person.
He took out his phone and called his father, An Zhiguo: "Dad, what's Ye Xingchen's background at Tianhai Xingchen Group?"
"Him? Did you offend him?" An Zhiguo's tone changed.
"Does he have powerful connections?" As soon as An Mingyu heard the difference in his father's tone, he immediately realized that Ye Xingchen's identity was extraordinary.
“He doesn’t have any powerful backers, but he’s from the Xuan Yu Pavilion and he possesses the Xuan Yu Token. I’m investigating his background,” An Zhiguo said seriously.
"The Mysterious Feather Token?" An Mingyu gasped, his gaze towards Ye Xingchen changing.
Xuan Yu Pavilion is the strongest and most powerful organization among all organizations in China.
Its existence is equivalent to that of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, engaging in intelligence gathering, foreign infiltration, and counter-espionage.
They will also intervene in special cases that domestic police cannot handle.
In particular, the Xuan Yu Nine Dragons Token is only held by those of high status within the Xuan Yu Pavilion, surpassing the four elders, eight deacons, and thirty-six Heavenly Realm experts.
Ye Xingchen possesses the Xuan Yu Token, and regardless of his strength, he is not someone the An family can easily touch.
"Yes, don't get into a conflict with him. Come back immediately, and we'll discuss this further."
"Okay, I understand." An Mingyu hung up the phone, his gaze towards Ye Xingchen now more serious.
