Chapter 91: Uncontrollable Situation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, the entire hall fell deathly silent.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Ye Chen and Liu Weicheng.
Liu Weicheng’s face was unrecognizable, and his entire mouth was twisted. His eyes were filled with shock!
They were at the Millennium Hotel right now!
Was he not courting death by creating a scene here?
Not only that, everyone knew that the family behind this auction was a revered existence in River City!
Was this kid really not afraid of the consequences?
…..
Lu Siyu and the others’ were stunned. They covered their mouths with their hands, afraid that they might accidentally scream out of shock.
Lunatic!
This man was a complete lunatic!
They thanked their lucky stars that they had chosen to keep their mouths shut, otherwise, they would have ended up like Liu Weicheng.
This guy was too brutal.
Not long after, the hotel’s security personnel heard the commotion and quickly rushed over.
There were a total of 11 of them, and a few of them were ancient martial arts practitioners. However, their cultivation realms were not high.
“Stop! Get away from young master Liu and get down with your hands behind your head! If you don’t, be prepared to bear the consequences!”
A security guard with a sharp gaze tried to stop him.
Ye Chen did not even bother to respond. His gaze still fell upon Liu Weicheng and he sneered. “Are you convinced yet?”
Liu Weicheng nodded his head vigorously. Although his consciousness was still muddled from the beating, he had the presence of mind to start begging for mercy. “I… I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said those words… I’m sorry!”
He was panicking.
He had never been beaten up like this before.
For a moment, he even believed that the other party would kill him in front of everyone present!
Ye Chen did not want to dirty his hands because of this kind of trash. He stood up and released Liu Weicheng. He took a wet tissue from the table and used it to wipe his hands gently.
“Kid, did you hear me? We’ve already called the police! Get down with your hands behind your head! If you don’t, be prepared to bear the consequences!” The security guard repeated himself.
The guard was aware of the severity of the matter. After all, the young master of the Liu family had been beaten up inside their Millennium Hotel. Their hotel would not be spared their wrath either!
Ye Chen picked up a glass of red wine and walked back to the sofa. With his back facing them, he crossed his legs and gently swirled the wine glass.
He acted as if nothing had happened!
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
They all had their own speculations as to how Ye Chen would react to the situation, believing that he would either escape, surrender, or perhaps express regret. However, they never expected that this kid would still be in the mood to calmly sit down and drink!
F*ck! Was this kid an idiot?
Did this kid have some sort of untouchable background?
Lu Siyu fell into a state of deep thought. She vaguely recalled that Zhu Zixuan had called that man Mr. Ye.
However, there did not seem to be a Ye family in River City. There were not even any rich tycoons with the surname Ye.
Ever since the Ye family was destroyed five years ago, the whole of River City had been wary of the Ye family name. Some people with the surname Ye even chose to leave River City to seek opportunities elsewhere.
Lu Siyu’s body trembled with fear. She went over to Zhu Zixuan and said softly, “Zixuan, who is this guy? Isn’t he courting death by provoking the Liu family? Why didn’t he listen to your advice? Is he from another city?”
Zhu Zixuan’s face was pale. She had no idea how to deal with the situation at hand. Her first option was to call her grandfather, but her calls did not go through.
As such, she had no choice but to call her father. “Dad, something happened. Mr. Ye beat Liu Weicheng up at the Millennium Hotel. Can you help Mr. Ye deal with the situation…”
Before she could finish explaining, a cold voice replied, “That Ye Chen that grandfather mentioned? Zixuan, the Zhu family is already in a sorry state, how can we still afford to care about other matters? Remember, don’t get involved and don’t make more enemies for the Zhu family!”
The call ended. Zhu Zixuan bit her lip, her eyes filled with guilt. Her Zhu family could not help Ye Chen.
Lu Siyu managed to pick up bits and pieces of the conversation. She looked at Ye Chen helplessly and muttered, “Even the Zhu family refused to lend a helping hand. The Liu family’s wrath will cause him to die a miserable death, yet he’s still in the mood to drink. Alas…”
Not long after, commotion could be heard behind the crowd. The security forces surrounding Ye Chen made way for a man in his thirties.
The man was dressed in a suit and wore gold-rimmed glasses. He had a cold expression on his face, and there was a trace of pride in his eyes.
Lu Siyu’s heart skipped a beat when she saw this man!
He Zheng!
Even the big boss of Millennium Hotel, He Zheng, was here!
One had to know that the leaders of these major hotels were not to be trifled with. The forces behind them were extremely powerful!
The He family was much stronger than the Liu family because they had connections with the underground organizations in River City.
He Zheng had taken over the family business at such a young age, so one could imagine how outstanding he was!
More importantly, Liu Weicheng’s mother was from the He family!
If one were to look at familial relationships, He Zheng was Liu Weicheng’s cousin!
It’s over, it’s all over!
Lu Siyu was not the only one who thought that way. Zhu Zixuan and everyone else present thought so too. They looked at Ye Chen with sympathy.
He Zheng put his hands in his pockets and said in an ice-cold tone, “What happened?”
“President He, young master Liu, he…” A security guard explained hesitantly.
He Zheng’s gaze instantly fell on Liu Weicheng, who was lying on the ground covered in blood! His pupils shrank and he clenched his fists tightly.
“Who the f*ck dares to lay their hands on a member of the Liu family in my Millennium Hotel?”
He took a step forward and helped Liu Weicheng up. He asked with concern, “Weicheng, who did this to you?”
He Zheng’s anger-filled voice resounded throughout the hall!
Liu Weicheng looked as if he had found a life-saving straw. He quickly pointed at Ye Chen, who had his back turned to them, and said in a trembling voice, “Brother Zheng… Help me kill him… I want him dead! My mouth has been destroyed by him. Tear his mouth apart… I want his whole family to be buried with him!”
All of Liu Weicheng’s teeth were broken, so his words were muffled. He Zheng still heard him clearly though.
He Zheng handed Liu Weicheng over to a security guard and instructed the guard, “Take him to the hospital. Leave this matter to me.”
Just as the security guard was about to take Liu Weicheng away, he was pushed away!
“Don’t touch me!”
Liu Weicheng looked at Ye Chen, who was not far away, with a dark expression! He wanted to see this guy die with his own eyes! He was not going anywhere!
He Zheng walked toward Ye Chen with his hands in his pockets. He wanted to see which blind fool dared to touch his cousin inside his territory.
Zhu Zixuan bit her lips so hard that they bled. The situation was far more serious than she had imagined! She had been trying to call her grandfather the entire time. Finally, the call went through!
A tired voice could be heard from the other end of the line, and Zhu Zixuan quickly briefed him about the situation at the hotel.
Her grandfather’s response was completely different from her father’s. Her grandfather firmly said, “Protect Mr. Ye at all costs! Pass the phone to He Zheng!”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zixuan was overjoyed. She quickly blocked He Zheng’s path and passed the phone over, saying, “You can’t touch a guest of the Zhu family. My grandfather is on the line!”
He Zheng glanced at Zhu Zixuan and snorted coldly. He slapped the phone away. “Who do you think you are? I don’t even know whether your Zhu family will still exist a few days from now. Even if Zhu Rende was in front of me, I would still tell him to get lost!”
By this time, He Zheng was already in front of Ye Chen. He turned to him and said coldly, “You…”
His words were suddenly cut off! It was as if his throat had been mercilessly choked by someone!
He subconsciously took a step back. His eyes filled with fear, almost as if they had witnessed something extremely terrifying!
He knew the man in front of him!
