At that moment.

Chen Xuan followed Xing Tai and the others to Lu Haokan's residence.

"Master Lu, we brought Chen Xuan over."

Xing Tai bowed to Lu Haokan and reported, his expression unnatural.

It wasn't him who brought Chen Xuan over; it was clearly that brat who came over on his own accord.

But he didn't dare to say this openly, nor did he have the face to do so.

Lu Haokan nodded indifferently, looked at Chen Xuan, and said coldly, "You don't look like much, but you act quite wildly, daring even to hit my son."

Chen Xuan sized up Lu Haokan, who seemed to be under sixty, with slightly graying hair.

He wore a white mandarin jacket, blue canvas shoes, and instead of a large gold watch, he had a string of yellow rosewood prayer beads on his wrist.

Overall, he looked vigorous and exuded the aura of someone in a high position.

Ordinary people would have long been trembling with fear and unable to speak under Lu Haokan's intimidating gaze.

Chen Xuan, however, remained calm as he sat on a redwood chair to the side.

Unhurriedly, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and leisurely smoked.

This act made Lu Haokan furrow his brows; how dare someone ignore him so blatantly!

"Kid, Master Lu is talking to you, are you deaf?" Xing Tai snapped coldly.

Chen Xuan glanced at him contemptuously and laughed, "Recovered from your dislocated wrist already? You've forgotten the pain so soon?"

Xing Tai's eyes were icy, filled with apprehension towards Chen Xuan, "Before Master Lu, you have no right to act presumptuously!"

"Is that so? But I don't think so." Chen Xuan scoffed, exhaling smoke nonchalantly.

Hehe!

Lu Haokan sneered, "It seems you really are quite wild! To remain so calm before me takes courage!"

"But ignoring me like this, do you know the consequences?"

Chen Xuan chuckled and waved it off, "Master Lu, don't take it to heart. I'm not deliberately putting on airs before you; I'm like this with everyone."

Hearing this, Lu Haokan laughed in anger, "It's rare to see someone dare to speak to me like that."

"In my memory, it's been twenty years since someone used such a tone with me."

"Do you know what happened to that person?"

Chen Xuan exhaled a puff of smoke and chuckled lightly, "I'm not interested in knowing; just say what you want from me today."

Lu Haokan sneered, "Having some youthful vigor isn't a bad thing, but don't go overboard!"

"Especially before me, your arrogance will only make your death even more miserable, understand?"

Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, "I find it really troublesome speaking with you. Just say what you want to do."

Humph!

Lu Haokan was immediately enraged, "You still dare to be so insolent before me; are you in a hurry to die?"

"I'll grant your wish! Get him and tear him apart!"

Xing Tai and the others immediately surrounded Chen Xuan, but hesitated to act, wary of him.

"What are you standing there for? Didn't you understand what I said?"

"Finish him off!"

Lu Haokan looked at Xing Tai and shouted angrily.

With no other choice, Xing Tai steeled himself to strike, "Everyone, together!"

"Master Lu!"

At that moment, a subordinate ran in from outside, "Master Bao is here with his men; they seem to be coming with hostile intentions, like they're ready to start a war with us."

Hmm?

Lu Haokan furrowed his brow, puzzled by Zhang Zhibao's madness in coming at this moment.

There was no bad blood between them; they had always minded their own business. Was Zhang Zhibao out of his mind?

Xing Tai hadn't even had time to attack Chen Xuan, so he hurriedly looked at Lu Haokan, "Master Lu, what do we do now?"

"Humph, there's nothing to worry about. I don't believe Zhang Zhibao dares to go to war with me directly!"

Lu Haokan snorted, "Let Zhang Zhibao in to talk. I want to see what his intentions are."

Chen Xuan had a clear idea of Zhang Zhibao's intentions, but he hadn't expected Zhang Zhibao to follow so closely.

It was likely related to Su Linlang; she must have informed Zhang Zhibao to come and support him, worrying about his safety.

Chen Xuan immediately thought of Su Linlang and shook his head with a smile.

This scene was caught by Lu Haokan, whose expression turned displeased, "You're about to meet your end, boy, and you still dare to laugh!"

"In a moment, you'll regret it!"

Chen Xuan merely smiled and didn't reply.

By now, Zhang Zhibao had already walked in.

Lu Haokan immediately asked coldly, "Old Zhang, what is your purpose in bringing people to my place today?"

"I've come for Mr. Chen!"

Zhang Zhibao glanced at Lu Haokan, then bowed to Chen Xuan, "Mr. Chen, I've had my men surround this place. Please instruct us on what to do next."

What?

Lu Haokan's expression changed drastically, looking at Chen Xuan in shock; for a moment, he couldn't comprehend...
