Actually, it wasn't that Zeng Duanquan was beaten senseless; rather, he had other plans.
Zeng Duanquan's idea was that if Liu Xiaoyuan was arrested by the police, he could just stay in jail for a day or two longer, give him some ideological education, and then have him apologize to him, and that would be the end of it.
However, this was not the outcome he had hoped for.
Liu Xiaoyuan beat Zeng Duanquan so badly that his head was practically swollen. Zeng Duanquan's hatred for Liu Xiaoyuan was so intense that even the Yellow River couldn't wash it away. He wouldn't let it go until he crippled Liu Xiaoyuan tonight.
Therefore, Zeng Duanquan told the police that nothing was wrong, his purpose being to get the police to leave so that his own people could come and teach Liu Xiaoyuan a good lesson.
"What happened to your face?" the policeman asked, looking at Zeng Duanquan's face, which was swollen like a pig's head.
Zeng Duanquan said, "You ate something that caused an allergic reaction, and now you're swollen like this. Is that not okay?"
The policeman glanced at Zeng Duanquan and said, "This is the first time I've ever seen someone swollen like this due to a food allergy. Wow, this is quite an eye-opener!"
The police had barely left when the men Zeng Duanquan had called arrived in several cars. A dozen or so people got out of the cars, the two leading men being young masters like Zeng Duanquan.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and Zeng Duanquan's circle consisted of wealthy young men.
The two men leading the group were named Yang Hao and Chen Haiming, both young masters from Beijing. Zeng Duanquan had just called Yang Hao.
"Quanzi, what happened to your face?" Yang Hao, with shoulder-length hair, asked hurriedly when he saw Zeng Duanquan's face, which was swollen like a pig's head.
"Holy crap! Quanzi, did that kid beat you up?" Chen Haiming had a buzz cut and earrings in both ears.
Upon seeing his reinforcements arrive, Zeng Duanquan smiled smugly with his pig-headed face, but the smile caused him to immediately cover his face with his hands in pain.
"This is the kid. Stop dawdling and get to work. Just don't kill anyone!" Zeng Duanquan said.
"I know!" Yang Hao shouted. "This kid dared to beat you up like this, we'll cripple him tonight!"
"Quanzi, don't worry, this kid is dead tonight!" Chen Haiming said arrogantly.
When she saw that the other side's reinforcements had arrived, there were more than ten people. Among them was a man named Yang Hao whom Murong Yuyan recognized. His family was also involved in the film and television industry and had some influence in the capital. Even her company's boss had to give him some face.
"Should I call my company instead?" Murong Yuyan said worriedly, thinking that her boss would intervene on her behalf and the matter should be resolved.
"Big star, you don't trust me? Don't worry, I don't even care about these few insignificant bastards!" Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly.
Zeng Duanquan and the other two heard Liu Xiaoyuan's words. Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan call them "scoundrels" was an absolute insult!
"Kid, you're dead meat!" Yang Hao gritted his teeth in anger, then called to the men behind him, "Brothers, let's go! I'll treat you to a massage afterwards!"
Upon hearing Yang Hao's words, those people immediately charged towards Liu Xiaoyuan as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
At this critical moment, a seven-seater van screeched to a halt beside everyone. Those who had been rushing toward Liu Xiaoyuan stopped in their tracks, wanting to see which clueless person had parked the car haphazardly.
The car door opened, and six men immediately stepped out of the van. These six men were energetic and had sharp eyes; they were clearly trained fighters.
Finally, the driver also got out of the car. The driver was none other than Ye Chengxin, the dignified head of the Ye family.
Upon seeing Ye Chengxin, Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Ye Chengxin, if you had arrived half a minute later, I would have considered you late."
Ye Chengxin smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Liu is right!"
Upon seeing that the people getting out of the van knew Liu Xiaoyuan, Zeng Duanquan immediately said, "These are the helpers that kid called... Ouch, that hurts..."
Zeng Duanquan spoke too fast and too hastily, and his facial muscles twitched, causing him to cry out in pain.
Even if Zeng Duanquan didn't say it, everyone would know, because they're not blind.
"Brothers, let's go! Whether we beat one or several, it's all the same!" Yang Hao shouted.
Ye Chengxin then addressed the six disciples of the Ye family, saying, "Let's make our move!"
As soon as Ye Chengxin finished speaking, a few seconds later, a pig-like scream rang out at the hotel entrance.
How could Zeng Duanquan's men be a match for the Ye family? In just a few moves, they were all knocked to the ground by the six disciples of the Ye family. Even Yang Hao and Chen Haiming were not spared.
A dozen or so people were lying on the ground in front of the hotel, rolling around and groaning in pain; the scene was rather spectacular.
"Brother Liu, now that the matter is resolved, let's head back!" Ye Chengxin said.
Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head and pointed to the police car driving towards the hotel, saying, "This matter isn't over yet!"
The police car was the same one as before, and the police officers were the same two officers as before.
"What happened?" the police asked as soon as they got out of the car and saw more than a dozen people lying on the ground.
Zeng Duanquan quickly walked to the police officers' side, pointed at Ye Chengxin and the others, and said, "Police officers, it was them, they were the ones who hit me! Also, officers, they were the ones who hit my face too."
The reason Zeng Duanquan wants the police to get involved is that he has realized his hopes of teaching Liu Xiaoyuan a lesson have been dashed, as the people he called are no match for Liu Xiaoyuan's men.
So let the police deal with Liu Xiaoyuan. We can use our connections to make him suffer in prison.
The police have a vivid memory of Zeng Duanquan, because he claimed that his face was swollen like a pig's head because of an allergic reaction to food.
"Didn't you say your injury was caused by a food allergy? How come you're saying someone else hit you now? Which of your statements is true?" the police officer countered.
Zeng Duanquan said, "Officer, I was actually lying to you before. My face was slapped by them. Really, have you ever seen anyone's face swollen like this due to an allergic reaction?"
Ye Chengxin wasn't idle either. He took out his phone, made a call, said a few words, and then hung up.
"Brother Liu, things here are settled, you can go and rest now!" Ye Chengxin said.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
Then, Liu Xiaoyuan took Murong Yuyan's hand, opened the car door, and helped Murong Yuyan into the car.
Murong Yuyan was still a little worried, after all, the police had arrived, and hesitated whether to get in the car. Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "It's okay, you still don't believe in my abilities, go back, it's getting late, be careful on the road, get some rest."
When Zeng Duanquan saw Liu Xiaoyuan seeing Murong Yuyan off, he assumed Liu Xiaoyuan was also trying to escape. He immediately said to the police, "Officer, that kid is trying to run away. That kid is the one who beat my face into a pig's head... Ouch, that hurts so much..."
