Chapter 49: The local bully draws his knife to stab someone as an apology?
Inside the private rooms of the Supreme Congress KTV, the bright lights and shadows flickered.
But the atmosphere was frozen solid, as if even the air itself had been frozen.
Ali stood bowing in front of Lu Jingchen, his waist almost touching the ground.
His attitude was extremely respectful, a stark contrast to his previous cold and aloof demeanor.
Lei Hu's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the scene before him.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, and even his breathing stopped for a beat.
Lei Hu's voice trembled like a leaf as he asked.
"Brother Li... what do you mean by this?"
Crazy Biao clearly hadn't grasped the current situation; Chun Chun was completely out of her mind.
Seeing Lei Hu standing there in a daze, he quickly stepped forward.
She pointed her finger sharply at Lu Jingchen, who was sitting on the sofa, still trying to ingratiate herself.
Crazy Biao spoke eagerly, his tone full of flattery.
"Sir, are you sure you haven't misunderstood something?"
"Tiger just said he was going to teach this kid a lesson."
"It's not the Mr. Lu you mentioned, he's just a poor student!"
Lu Jingchen nestled on the sofa, slowly swirling his wine glass in his hand.
He didn't even give Feng Biao a second glance, completely ignoring him.
He merely smiled faintly, as if watching a monkey show.
Lu Jingchen spoke casually, his tone as indifferent as plain water.
"Ali, didn't you go back with Boss Jiang?"
"Why did you come to this place?"
Upon hearing Lu Jingchen's voice, Ali bent down even lower.
His face instantly plastered with a fawning smile, and he became extremely respectful.
Ali replied immediately, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
"That's right, Mr. Lu."
"This guy keeps pestering us to see our boss."
"Our boss was too lazy to deal with him, so he sent me over to handle it."
"Just killing some time, I didn't expect to run into you here."
Upon hearing this, Lei Hu felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
My legs went weak and I almost collapsed to the ground; I was so scared I nearly flew out of my skin.
Lu Jingchen raised an eyebrow and asked casually.
"Oh? Could this guy be one of Boss Jiang's men?"
Ali quickly waved his hand, eager to distance himself from him.
"He's just a nobody, nothing special."
"Mr. Lu, if you find him an eyesore."
"I immediately called our boss and asked him to come and deal with him personally."
In the close-up shot, Lei Hu's pupils contracted sharply.
Cold sweat poured down my back, soaking my shirt instantly.
He screamed inwardly: Let Boss Jiang handle this personally?
How could I possibly be alive? Boss Jiang's methods are so ruthless; skinning me alive would be the least of my worries!
Lei Hu could no longer suppress his fear and rushed forward.
His knees buckled, and he almost knelt down before Lu Jingchen.
Lei Hu, his face filled with terror, stammered an apology.
"Brother! Mr. Lu! I was so blind!"
"I had absolutely no idea you were a friend of Boss Jiang!"
He suddenly pointed at Feng Biao beside him, eager to shift the blame and defend himself.
"Brother Li, as you know, I came up here with you just now."
"I knew absolutely nothing about what happened! It's all this beast's fault!"
Lei Hu suddenly turned around, staring at Feng Biao with venomous eyes.
That look in his eyes was as if he wanted to devour him alive.
Crazy Biao was terrified by this sudden reversal.
His face turned deathly pale, his lips trembled, and he retreated repeatedly.
Crazy Biao's voice was trembling so much it was almost cracking.
"Tiger... Brother Tiger... What... What are you doing?"
He knelt down on the ground with a thud, frantically kowtowing and wailing at Lei Hu.
"Brother Tiger, please let me go!"
"For the sake of all those years we've been through thick and thin together!"
"I really didn't know he was such a big shot that even you couldn't afford to offend him!"
Lei Hu's facial muscles twitched violently, and a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.
He strode toward the kneeling Mad Biao, his whole body radiating murderous intent.
Lei Hu's tone was as cold as ice.
"Crazy Biao, this isn't my fault."
"It's your own fault for being blind and offending someone with immense influence."
He gritted his teeth, his tone ruthless.
"But for the sake of our years of brotherhood..."
"I will take good care of your family."
Inside the private room, the remaining henchmen watched this bloody prelude unfold.
They were all trembling uncontrollably, not daring to even breathe.
No one dared to utter a word of advice, for fear of getting themselves into trouble.
Lei Hu suddenly pulled a spring-loaded folding knife from his waist.
With a flick of the wrist, the blade instantly bounced away, flashing with a cold light that made one dizzy.
He raised the knife high, gritting his teeth as he prepared to stab Feng Biao.
It was obvious he wanted to stab him and apologize to Lu Jingchen.
At this critical moment, Lu Jingchen casually waved his hand.
His tone was languid, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.
"never mind."
The sound wasn't loud, but it was like an imperial edict.
Lei Hu's knife froze in mid-air.
The blade was less than an inch away from Feng Biao's neck.
Crazy Biao was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he almost fainted on the spot.
Lu Jingchen chuckled lightly, his tone still nonchalant.
"It's nothing serious, not enough to warrant bloodshed."
"There's no need to make such a fuss; it spoils everyone's fun."
Upon seeing this, Ali immediately turned and glared angrily at Lei Hu.
He raised his foot and kicked Lei Hu hard in the back of the knee.
Ali shouted sternly, his voice almost cracking.
"What? Didn't you hear what Mr. Lu said?"
"Put that broken knife away right now! Don't get in the way!"
Lei Hu felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and the knife in his hand clattered to the ground.
He was completely exhausted, panting heavily.
The back of my clothes was already soaked with cold sweat.
He quickly turned around and knelt down in front of Lu Jingchen with a thud.
He kowtowed three times to Lu Jingchen, his forehead turning red from the effort.
With a sob in his voice, Lei Hu quickly pledged his loyalty.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu! Thank you for your magnanimity!"
"You are like my second parents!"
"From now on, if you need anything in Jiangcheng..."
"Just say the word, and I, Lei Hu, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Lu Jingchen leaned back on the sofa, waved his hand, and didn't take those words to heart at all.
To him, a nobody like Lei Hu was no different from an ant on the roadside.
He glanced up at Feng Biao, who was still sprawled on the ground, and Lili, who was trembling beside him.
The two were so terrified that they didn't even have the courage to look up at Lu Jingchen.
Lu Jingchen spoke calmly, his tone devoid of emotion.
"That's enough for today."
"Don't pull those low-class tricks again; they're an eyesore."
Feng Biao and Lili nodded frantically, like chicks pecking at rice.
He kept saying thank you, Mr. Lu, and that he would never dare to do it again.
He scrambled to the corner of the private room, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Huang Shaofeng and Lin Yushi, who were standing nearby, were already terrified.
The two huddled on the sofa, trembling like leaves, barely daring to breathe.
They never imagined that the poor, struggling students they saw would turn out like this.
He was actually a big shot whom even Lei Hu had to kneel down and kowtow to!
This time, I've really kicked a hornet's nest; I feel like dying.
Xia Wanxing stood aside, completely dumbfounded by what she saw.
She only knew that Lu Jingchen was a top student who scored 708 on the college entrance exam.
I never imagined he had such a powerful background!
Even Jiang Zhenbang's most trusted confidant treated him with such deference.
Lu Qingyuan looked at her brother with pride in her eyes.
She knew it; her brother was no ordinary person!
She almost cried when those people mocked her brother for being poor.
Seeing these people kneeling and begging for mercy now makes me feel incredibly relieved.
Ali frowned as he saw Lei Hu still kneeling on the ground and shouted sternly.
"What are you all standing there for? Mr. Lu has already said it's fine, so get out of here!"
"Don't get in Mr. Lu's way and upset him!"
Lei Hu quickly responded and scrambled to his feet.
He dragged along Crazy Biao and Lili, who were sprawled on the ground, along with a group of his underlings.
He didn't dare lift his head, and slunk out of the private room without uttering a sound.
The private room fell silent instantly, leaving only Lu Jingchen and his few companions.
Huang Shaofeng and Lin Yushi huddled on the sofa, unsure whether to leave or stay, feeling incredibly awkward.
Lu Jingchen didn't take these two clowns seriously at all.
He turned to look at Lu Qingyuan and spoke with a smile.
"You've had your fun, you've seen the show, how about I take you home?"
Lu Qingyuan nodded quickly and walked briskly to Lu Jingchen's side.
She held his arm tightly, her face beaming with a bright smile.
"Okay! Brother, let's go home!"
Xia Wanxing quickly stepped forward and smiled apologetically at Lu Jingchen.
"Brother Lu, I'm so sorry about what happened today."
"I didn't expect them to do something like this, it almost dragged you into it."
Lu Jingchen waved his hand and spoke calmly.
"It's nothing, it has nothing to do with you."
"It's getting late, you should head back soon too, and be careful."
After saying that, he took Lu Qingyuan's hand and walked straight out of the private room.
Ali quickly followed behind, seeing them off respectfully, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Inside the private room, only Huang Shaofeng, Lin Yushi, and a group of classmates looked at each other blankly.
Huang Shaofeng slumped on the sofa, his face ashen.
He knew that he was completely finished this time.
Having offended such a powerful figure, I'm afraid I won't even have a place to stand in Jiangcheng anymore.
