Hong Kong.
Shipping magnate Xu Shixun sat in his living room.
As night fell, Xu Shixun's expression grew increasingly grim.
Xu Jinheng stood in front of Xu Shixun, dragging his head, not daring to utter a sound.
At this moment, Xu Shixun raised his head.
He glanced at his son, Xu Jinheng, and then said, "Look what you've done!"
Xu Jinheng shrank back, not daring to breathe.
Although Xu Jinheng is known as a playboy outside, he is actually very strict with his family.
Since shipping magnate Hui Siu-shun returned to Hong Kong, he has visited Hidden Dragon Residence every few days.
He knew that Chen Dong was not in Hong Kong, but he did not know where Chen Dong had gone.
Therefore, in the shipping magnate's view, Chen Dong of Hidden Dragon Residence was probably still holding a grudge, which was why he was unwilling to see him.
In fact, shipping magnate Xu Shixun also very much wanted to get to know Chen Dong.
His original intention was to use the pretext of apologizing to meet with Chen Dong.
Young talents like Chen Dong have a bright future ahead of them.
Xu Shixun naturally did not want to give up this opportunity.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Shixun had already visited Yinlongju five times.
Uncle Fu always received him, but Xu Shixun was never able to see Chen Dong.
Ultimately, Xu Shixun could only conclude that Chen Dong was deliberately avoiding him.
The culprit behind all of this was his unfortunate son.
Xu Shixun stood up and paced back and forth, clearly unwilling to accept the situation.
"You unfilial son! I don't care if you like to hang out with those beautiful women."
"But of all people to provoke, why did you have to go and provoke Vivian Chow in front of everyone!"
The shipping magnate was furious. He even wondered if his son's brain was full of water.
Who is Vivian Chow?
It's something everyone in Hong Kong knows, except for Hui Chun-hang, who's completely brainless.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinheng muttered, "Dad, you can't entirely blame me for that. Wasn't it Li Zeju who schemed against me?"
"If Li Zeju hadn't stirred things up, I wouldn't have acted rashly and offended Chen Dong."
Upon hearing these words, Xu Shixun glared at Xu Jinheng.
Xu Shixun sneered, "Kid, let me tell you, stay away from the Li family from now on!"
Given the current situation, the consequences of offending Chen Dong are self-evident.
Li Ka-shing has rarely made public appearances lately.
Even at various banquets hosted by people in Hong Kong, Li Ka-shing never appeared.
It's not that he didn't want to come, but that he was afraid to show up.
After the betting incident, Xiang Huaqiang did not cause trouble for Xu Jinheng, but instead sent Li Zeju to the hospital.
If Li Ka-shing hadn't been actively lobbying and bringing in peacemakers, it's hard to guarantee that Xiang Huaqiang wouldn't have done something to him.
At this moment, shipping magnate Xu Shixun coldly said, "You are grounded for three months. If I find out you haven't left your house even once, I'll break your legs!"
"Dad, it can't be that bad, I'm your own son!"
Upon hearing that he would be confined for three months, Xu Jinheng, this young master, immediately became agitated.
For him to be cooped up at home all day is worse than killing him.
Xu Jinheng also looked unconvinced.
He didn't understand why the renowned shipping magnate family had to defer to Chen Dong's wishes.
“If you weren’t my son, I would kick you out right now.”
There is no better son than a father.
Xu Shixun quickly noticed Xu Jinheng's unusual behavior. He could tell that his precious son was very dissatisfied.
Xu Shixun immediately said, "I'm doing this for your own good."
"Think about it yourself. How old is this Chen Sheng from Hidden Dragon Residence?"
"Such a young man, yet his background is incredibly mysterious. I'm afraid his assets are more than mine!"
Xu Jinheng was taken aback, clearly somewhat disbelieving.
The shipping magnate sighed, "Think about it again. There are so many powerful forces in Hong Kong, none of them are easy to deal with. Putting aside others, don't you know what kind of person Li Ka-shing is?"
"Chen Dong repeatedly refuted Li Ka-shing's wishes, and Xiang Huaqiang even beat his son half to death."
"And then what happened?"
The shipping magnate looked at Xu Shixun again as he finished speaking.
Xu Shixun frowned slightly.
Hearing his father's words, Xu Shixun finally understood.
Xu Jinheng immediately cursed, "Damn it, no wonder that bastard Li Zeju was egging me on to stand up for him. Turns out, it's because the Li family doesn't dare to mess with Chen Dong!"
Xu Shixun nodded, finally feeling a sense of relief.
At least, his precious son isn't hopelessly stupid.
Seeing that his father's expression had softened, Xu Jinheng seized the opportunity to say with a grin, "Dad, this matter has been resolved now, and Xiang Huaqiang is unlikely to cause me any trouble. So please don't put me under house arrest anymore, okay?"
"no!"
Xu Shixun's attitude was firm.
Then, Xu Shixun said meaningfully, "I placed you under house arrest to give Hidden Dragon Residence an explanation."
Xu Jinheng was puzzled.
Xu Shixun narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Chen Dong is no ordinary person. As far as I know, he also has considerable influence in the mainland."
"If we can become friends with Chen Dong now, we will definitely benefit greatly in the future."
"Times are changing, and the mainland is no longer the small fishing village it once was. With Chen Dong's connections, if things change in the future, we can remain calm and collected, and won't have to become the first to stick our necks out in Hong Kong."
At this point, Xu Shixun became even more furious.
Because Hui Siu-hsun is a member of the board of directors of HSBC, and Chen Dong is a highly regarded top client of HSBC.
