Chapter 1552 I am a university professor
"WHAT?" Jike and the others exclaimed in surprise. If Xiao Peng had given Juliet's mother the money after her treatment, they'd understand. But he's already paid for it before the treatment even started? Are you too generous or too stupid?
Xiao Peng said, "What's so surprising? We won't be here for long. We can't waste time on such a small matter. Whether she apologizes to you or you apologize to her is your business. I'm only responsible for paying. But..."
At this point, Xiao Peng looked at Jike and said, "I hope your father gets good treatment. If you take the money and don't do the job, believe me, I have a way to make you regret doing this."
Zeke could only nod.
What does it mean that they don't care about 500,000? In the US, it doesn't matter what skin color you have, as long as you have money, you are the boss!
Van der Laupe said, "Account number."
Jike said hurriedly: "I'll call my father first!"
Xiao Peng nodded.
Jike walked out of the room to make a phone call, while Dolph, Forl and the others were all looking at Xiao Peng. Finally, Dolph broke the silence: "Mr. Xiao, I wonder what you do for a living?"
Xiao Peng thought for a moment: "Me? A university professor, the kind that teaches classes."
Everyone in the room was scowling. "Are you kidding me? What other professor is like you?"
In fact, Xiao Peng did not lie - now his only "job" is teaching at Delft University of Technology.
Not long after, Jike came back and said, "Mr. Xiao, I told my father about what happened here. He has agreed to perform surgery on her mother as soon as possible. He will also do his best!"
He spoke quite politely this time.
The reason why he was so polite was because he already knew Xiao Peng's identity.
He told his father what happened here. His father was also confused. Who was this person so arrogant? He wanted to pay 500,000 yuan first before treating the disease? He wanted to know Xiao Peng's identity.
Jike, who didn't know Xiao Peng's identity, suddenly remembered that Xiao Peng had said that his ex-girlfriend had performed surgery with his father. He also remembered that Xiao Peng said his ex-girlfriend was a brain surgeon. Combining this with Jike's father, he naturally knew that Xiao Peng's ex-girlfriend was Eniuk van Vobeek, also known as Abby.
Who was Abby's ex-boyfriend? And he was Asian? A quick internet search revealed the truth: the renowned billionaire "Salvage King" Xiao Peng! The deep-sea salvage industry has always been dominated by Americans, and Xiao Peng's meteoric rise in the industry has astonished the world!
Although Xiao Peng only made it to the US once, after nearly feeding a fish, and quickly left, he's been widely reported in the US, with a documentary even being made about him! Online video sites even offer simultaneous English translations of all of Xiao Peng's live broadcasts. Even though he rarely visits, his fame here is no less than in Europe!
Why is English translation necessary? Interestingly, most Westerners dislike subtitles. If they see subtitles during a video or movie, many people automatically miss them. They also rarely see dubbed films. The fact that Xiao Peng's livestreams are accompanied by translations speaks volumes about his admiration.
There are even more people here who want to get rich overnight! Xiao Peng is their role model!
After knowing Xiao Peng's identity, Jike decided it would be better to be a little timid.
In addition to the "Salvage King", Xiao Peng has many nicknames, such as "The Man with the Most Cash in the World" - because he is not listed and no one knows how much money he has. But just based on the treasures in Xiao Peng's museum, how many billionaires can he create?
In the US, whoever has the most money has the final say. No matter how famous his father is, it would be too easy for Xiao Peng to bring him down: wouldn't it be easy enough to just spend some money to create public opinion and kill them? Wouldn't it be easy enough to just spend some money to hire someone to cause trouble for them?
So he decided it would be better to be humble.
Xiao Peng said: "Account number, I'll transfer the money right away."
Jike then said directly, "Mr. Xiao, my father told me to tell you that he will do his utmost to treat Juliet's mother this time, even risking his reputation as a doctor. If her mother's condition doesn't improve, I won't charge her a cent. If the operation is successful, I won't ask Mr. Xiao for the money later."
Xiao Peng asked, "Your father doesn't even know who I am, so you're not afraid that I won't give you the money?"
Jike laughed and said, "My father said that he believed Dr. Van Vobeek's ex-boyfriend would not do such a thing."
Xiao Peng was stunned: "Do you know who I am?"
At this time, For could not help but say: "Jike, you don't know, Mr. Xiao just said that he is a university professor."
He meant to say that Xiao Peng was lying to them, but Jike nodded and said, "Mr. Xiao is indeed an honorary professor at a top European polytechnic university."
"Ah?" Dolph and For were both stunned after hearing this.
Seeing they were about to speak, Xiao Peng said directly, "Jike, I originally made three requests, but for this matter, these two will suffice. Let's leave it at that. We didn't know anything about what happened last night when the police came. If anyone gets the video, we won't pursue legal responsibility. Is that okay?"
Dolph's face lit up when he heard this: "Of course! Of course!"
For also said: "Mr. Xiao, this weekend is our home game. I'll leave my phone number. When the time comes, you can call me and I promise to take you in."
Jike said, "Mr. Xiao, didn't you just say you had three requests? What's the third request?"
Now that he knew Xiao Peng's identity, all he wanted to do was to get along well with him.
After hearing this, Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "Forget it."
Jike said hurriedly, "Mr. Xiao, please tell me. I will do my best to do what I can."
Xiao Peng still shook his head: "Forget it, I can't do this for your father."
"Please go ahead." Jike was very persistent.
"Alright, if you really want to know, I'll tell you." Xiao Peng pointed at the two fat men still kneeling on the ground and said, "The third requirement is that you break their hands or I break their hands and feet myself! This is the price you have to pay for showing up here with a gun. But let's forget it now. But For, I hope this incident will make you more thoughtful in the future. Not everyone is as easy to talk to as I am."
“…”
Jike and the others walked out of Xiao Peng's house, and no one said a word. They felt like they were in a dream. Who was this person?
Fatty Adam spoke first: "He hasn't returned my gun to me yet! Damn it, he's such a boaster! He even wants to break my arms and legs! Do you believe I'll bring some men to kill him?"
After hearing this, Jike quickly stopped him and shouted, "Shut the fuck up! He's not kidding! He killed everyone who pointed a gun at him last time! A lot of people died! Can't you just watch the news?"
"Hiss...Zike, who is he?"
