Old man?!
Upon hearing Liu Haowei's form of address, the Xue family patriarch's face turned ashen.
He'd lived for decades and no one had ever dared to call him "old man." This guy in front of him was something else!
However, the most important issue right now isn't how this bastard addresses me; that can wait. What I clearly heard just now was that this bastard said he was there to teach Mr. Ye a lesson, and that's a much bigger problem.
He invited Mr. Ye out for dinner tonight, he's the host, and now he's trying to humiliate his guest at his own dinner party? Isn't that just humiliating him?!
The head of the Xue family, his face grim, loudly questioned:
"Who do you think you are, daring to speak to Mr. Ye like that?!"
"Heh, what am I? And what are you?!"
Liu Haowei didn't take the two "old, weak, sick and disabled" people in front of him seriously at all. One was a young man who had just started out, and the other was an old man who was halfway to the grave. It was really laughable.
"Behind me is Master Xu. If Master Xu stomps his foot, Shanghai will tremble. What am I to you?!"
Liu Haowei boasted about his powerful backer, "Master Xu".
"Master Xu?"
The head of the Xue family muttered to himself. In his memory, there was no important person with the surname Xu in Shanghai. Who was this Master Xu? The head of the Xue family looked at Ye Chen, who also shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of this "Master Xu".
"When Master Xu arrives, let's see if you're still so arrogant."
After discovering Ye Chen's whereabouts, Liu Haowei sent someone to invite Master Xu over.
Sure enough, after Liu Haowei finished speaking, a series of footsteps approached, and Master Xu, smoking a cigar, swaggered into the private room with several bodyguards.
“Master Xu, this is the kid I told you about, and this old guy too. This old guy is also in cahoots with this kid.”
Upon seeing Master Xu arrive, Liu Haowei pointed at Ye Chen and the Xue family patriarch and spoke.
"You two..."
Master Xu glanced at Ye Chen and the head of the Xue family, but before he could say a few words, he was interrupted by the head of the Xue family.
"Get out of here in three seconds, or you'll face the consequences!"
The head of the Xue family just sent a message, asking the bodyguards outside the restaurant to come in. As the head of the prestigious Xue family, and being of advanced age, he is used to traveling with bodyguards.
Just now, the head of the Xue family felt that having a group of bodyguards standing by during this dinner with Mr. Ye might be disrespectful to Mr. Ye, so he did not let the bodyguards in.
"Get us out! Who do you think you are?!"
Master Xu gave a dismissive reply.
"I am the head of the Xue family in Shanghai."
Faced with Master Xu's questioning, the head of the Xue family directly revealed his identity.
"The head of the Xue family?!"
Upon hearing these four words, Master Xu's expression changed drastically, and he began to tremble uncontrollably, even losing his grip on the cigar in his hand.
He...he...wasn't he hallucinating? This old guy in front of him is actually the head of the prestigious Xue family in Shanghai, a top figure in the city?!
Master Xu was so frightened that his legs went weak.
"The head of the Xue family?"
Liu Haowei was still puzzled. He was not of a high enough social class to know anything about the wealthy families, so he had never heard of the Xue family.
Just as Liu Haowei was about to ask Master Xu what the Xue family was, the Xu family suddenly knelt down in front of the Xue family head without hesitation.
"I'm sorry, Patriarch Xue, I was blind and didn't recognize you. Please don't take offense at us insignificant people."
"We are not here today to deal with you."
Master Xu begged for mercy from the head of the Xue family with a sob in his voice.
Seeing this, Liu Haowei almost fainted from fright. In his eyes, Master Xu was already a high-ranking figure, but after Master Xu learned the old man's identity, he was so frightened that he knelt down. Did that mean the old man's identity was...?
At this moment, the Xue family patriarch's bodyguards rushed in from outside. The Xue family patriarch's bodyguards, in terms of both numbers and strength, far surpassed Master Xu's.
As soon as they entered, they surrounded Master Xu and his group.
"We're not here to deal with you this time, so please don't take it personally."
Even Master Xu knelt down, so Liu Haowei naturally didn't dare to stand. He also knelt down and begged Master Xu for mercy, and emphasized that they were not there to deal with the head of the Xue family.
Hearing their words, the Xue family head's face darkened further, and he angrily rebuked them with extreme displeasure:
"Mr. Ye is a guest I specially invited today. According to you, you've come here specifically to deal with Mr. Ye?!"
What?!!
This kid is a guest invited by the dignified head of the Xue family?!
Liu Haowei and Master Xu were extremely shocked.
Being specially invited by the dignified head of the Xue family, Ye Chen's status and position are at least the same as, or even more powerful than, the head of the Xue family.
In an instant, Liu Haowei's heart stopped, and he could hardly breathe.
As for Master Xu, he was also trembling with fear; this was the end for him.
“Mr. Ye, I invited you to dinner today, but this has turned out to be so unfortunate. I’m really sorry. These two are really humiliating Mr. Xue. Leave them to me. I will teach them a lesson later.”
The head of the Xue family spoke to Ye Chen, emphasizing the word "education."
These two people are slapping him in the face. As the head of a wealthy family, he is not someone to be trifled with.
Ye Chen nodded. Now he didn't have to lift a finger, which made things much easier. These two had offended the head of a powerful family in Shanghai, so there was no need to say more about what would happen to them.
