Zhong Cheng was really annoyed by the arrogance and lawlessness, and he even scolded his father when he got angry!
Mr. Zhong's chest was heaving with anger, and he raised his hand to slap him.
Zhong Cheng said angrily with a shameless face, "Go ahead and hit me, keep hitting me, even if you want to kill me. My mother passed away early, so there's no one to take care of me or teach me how to be a good person. You know how much of a failure you are as a father. If you want to kill my whole family, go ahead and hit me!"
Mr. Zhong's eyes were wide open and bloodshot. His hands were raised in the air and trembling. He was annoyed, hateful, and regretful, but in the end he couldn't continue the fight.
Bang!
Mr. Zhong was stunned. He didn't hit her, so what was this slap...
Xiao Shaoyan shook his hands and sneered at Zhong Cheng, whose eyes were almost blazing with anger. "Don't you want someone to beat you to death? I've never heard of such a request before. It's really too interesting. You have to beat me. Oh, you're welcome. No need to thank me."
"I thank you for nothing!"
Zhong Cheng was so angry that he rushed up to him and was about to fight him, but Zhong's father grabbed him in time and said, "Let me go, I want to beat him up."
Bang!
There was another loud slap. Wen Xi raised his hand and said dissatisfiedly, "You are really thick-skinned. It hurts my hand."
Zhong Cheng's eyes were red with anger, and his face was swollen like a pig's head. Being hugged by Zhong's father, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears.
Zhong Cheng said, "You bastards, you're bullying me! I'm going to kill you all!"
He kicked the nearby tables crazily, smashing all the wine glasses and bottles. The bar owner was so distressed that he wanted to call the bodyguards to restrain him.
"If you want to act wild, go back and act wild!"
Xiao Shaoyan kicked him to the ground and looked down at him coldly.
Wen Xi said, "People say that a poorly educated son is the fault of his father. From this point of view, it is indeed true. You, as a father, are quite a failure. Judging from his appearance, he seems to be addicted again. So, your Zhong family has made quite a few mistakes."
Mr. Zhong closed his eyes, hiding the heartache in his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he was the decisive and efficient Mr. Zhong in the business world again.
He took out the check and handed it to Wen Xi politely. "My friends, this is indeed my son's fault. I will pay for his mistakes. The money here is enough to pay for the compensation here, as well as compensation for everyone. As for Liang Yuan... he is gone. I can't bring him back to life. I can only do my best to take care of his father for him. I will do my best."
"With all my strength?"
Wen Xi glanced at the amount on the check with disdain. "He's indeed a father who's willing to sacrifice for his son, but what you're doing will only leave him with no place to bury his body. Do you think Liang Yuan's father wants money? I guess you already know that he's the one who spread the video behind the scenes. If you don't hold him accountable, are you asking for forgiveness?"
Father Zhong looked at Wen Xi seriously and said quietly, "I know my son has done many wrong things, but I can't just sit back and watch. He is my only son."
Wen Xi crossed his arms and said, "That depends on whether you can still protect him next time. The Special Management Bureau will not sit idly by and watch this matter."
Xiao Shaoyan said, "That's right, the Special Management Bureau will take over this case. Zhong Cheng must pay the price for what he did."
Father Zhong frowned and said, "Young Master Xiao, your father, Mr. Xiao, and I are old acquaintances. Are you sure you want to target me like this?"
Xiao Shaoyan put his hands in his pockets and said indifferently, "You are familiar with them, that's your business. I am not familiar with you. Just now, your son threatened me that my Xiao family would go bankrupt. So, we are still enemies."
Mr. Zhong lowered his head and said, "My son was ignorant. I apologize to you on his behalf."
"If apologies are useful, why do we need Uncle Hat?"
Wen Xi said coldly, "Don't waste your time talking here. Unless you are willing to disclose everything your son has done, otherwise... this matter will only go in a direction you can't predict."
Father Zhong took a deep breath and said, "I will never give up on my son. There's no point in saying more to you all. I will do my best to make amends. As for the rest... that's up to me."
He regained his former dominance and snapped his fingers. The bodyguards outside rushed in and carried away Zhong Cheng, who was twisting and turning on the ground.
Mr. Zhong nodded slightly to them, and the moment he turned to leave, Liang Yuan rushed towards his back. Before he could touch his body, he was bounced away by an invisible force, and his soul floated weakly near the booth.
It was at this moment that Wen Xi clearly saw a trace of turbid air remaining on Mr. Zhong's body.
Mr. Zhong seemed not to notice Liang Yuan's presence and left the bar without looking back.
"Liang Yuan, are you okay?"
Yang Lin stood near Liang Yuan, not daring to get too close, but still caring about him very much.
Liang Yuan shook his head, his eyes filled with gloom.
Zhong Cheng's friends tried to take the opportunity to escape, but were stopped by Xiao Shaoyan. "Where do you want to go? Colleagues from the Special Management Bureau will be here soon. They need to ask you something. I hope you can cooperate seriously. Otherwise... you may not even be able to leave the Special Management Bureau!"
Several people looked at each other, trembling, and under Xiao Shaoyan's cold gaze, they waited dejectedly for the people from the Special Management Bureau to come and take them away.
Wen Xi walked up to Yang Lin and said, "Yang Lin, you have to come too. If you really want to make amends to Liang Yuan, you must tell the truth to the Special Management Bureau this time. Tell them all the evidence of Zhong Cheng's crimes and give Liang Yuan, and even the other wandering ghosts, justice."
Yang Lin looked at her with twinkling eyes, then looked at Liang Yuan hesitantly.
Liang Yuan did not respond to her gaze, but lowered his head and remained silent.
After a tug-of-war within her, Yang Lin finally let out a long breath, nodded, and said, "Okay, I know what to do. I'll also trouble you... to help Liang Yuan. It was me who gave up on him because I didn't have the ability. If possible... I hope he can win this time."
Wen Xi chuckled, "I'll take care of this matter, but... win? What can a dead person win?"
These words made Yang Lin's face pale. She tightened her skirt, pursed her lips and closed her mouth, then left with the people from the Special Management Bureau.
Xiao Shaoyan came over and asked, "Did you stop the evil spirit from killing that idiot?"
Wen Xi said, "Well, Liang Yuan has killed many people, but their crimes are far less than Zhong Cheng's. If Zhong Cheng had been the first to die, the guilt Liang Yuan suffered after entering the underworld wouldn't have been so great! As for Zhong Cheng, he is simply evil, without a single good quality. If such a person is killed, he will definitely become a fierce ghost, committing more crimes without restraint!"
