"Here they come!"
All the time, Chen Xiaobei was using Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes to observe what was happening outside. He saw that the short man was bringing Zhuang Lao Taijun, Zhuang Hao, and Elder Su to come and meet him. On the other hand, Lan Mengchen had decided to stay in the private room instead.
"Everything is under my control!"
Chen Xiaobei was gleeful upon seeing that scene. The main reason Chen Xiaobei chose to have a standoff with the Zhuang Family was to make sure that no one in the Zhuang Family could gauge how powerful he was. The Zhuang Family would definitely go after him if he used Zhuang Jiuxiao to escape from this place. With that being put into consideration, acting like a coward when facing a powerful group of people like the Zhuang Family would only make the situation worse.
Needless to say, Chen Xioabei's strength was weaker than the Zhuang Family's – psychological warfare was the only way to defeat them.
"Mr. Chen! Your name precedes your reputation! I can finally meet you in person!"
With a smile on her face, Chen Xiaobei could see that Zhuang Lao Taijun was just another hypocrite. It was as if nothing had happened before she came into this room and talked to Chen Xiaobei.
"Stop acting like that! Hypocrites like you are the ones that I hate most!"
"Bastard! What kind of attitude is that?"
Immediately, Zhuang Hao was angered from the way he talked to Zhuang Lao Taijun. Gritting his teeth, he could not wait to chop Chen Xiaobei into pieces. Zhuang Lai Taijun was after all Zhuang Hao's grandmother – the one that managed the whole family. No one in their right minds in this country would dare to talk to her in such a rude manner.
"Zhuang Hao! Step back!"
Waving a hand at Zhuang Hao, she took a step forwards. Elder Su then picked up a chair and delivered it to her.
"Mr. Chen. I think it's time for us to talk about this matter peacefully since it has taken a turn for the worse."
Just when Zhuang Lao Taijun wanted to take a seat, Chen Xiaobei bellowed at her.
"Did I give you permission to sit down?"
Upon hearing that, everyone including Lan Mengchen was extremely shocked.
'Is that kid crazy?'
'Zhuang Lao Taijun does not even need his permission to sit on the chair!'
'I think he is treating himself like a god! No ordinary human being would dare to speak to Zhuang Lao Taijun in such a rude manner!'
The four top-notch bodyguards were taken aback as well. They had seen a lot of crazy people throughout their time in Jianghu. This was their very first time seeing such a crazy and arrogant person like Chen Xiaobei.
In the other private room, Lan Mengchen was so worried about Chen Xiaobei that she started to sweat.
"What the hell is Xiaobei thinking? Zhuang Lao Taijun had just lowered her status in Jianghu to go and talk to him. Why did he have to say such a ridiculous thing to anger her even further? This is a completely suicidal move!"
To Lan Mengchen, the best way to overcome a problem like this was to talk to Zhuang Lao Taijun in a peaceful manner and looked for an opportunity to get out of this place. However, Chen Xiaobei did not do what ordinary human being would do. Instead, he was trying to anger the whole Zhuang Family from the moment they entered the room.
"Son of a bitch! IIt seems like you are asking to be killed on the spot!"
Glaring at Chen Xiaobei angrily, Zhuang Hao started to channel True Qi to his body and get ready to strike him.
"Uncle! Please don't do it… He will not hesitate to kill me… No…"
Zhuang Jiuxiao was kneeling beside Chen Xiaobei and begging in a hysterical manner. However, anger had already gotten better of Zhuang Hao. He would not mind sacrificing his own nephew just to kill Chen Xioabei.
"Master Zhuang!"
At that critical moment, Elder Su stopped him immediately and shook his head. Clearly, this old man still did not have a clear view of Chen Xiaobei's capabilities. Feeling worried, he was afraid that Zhuang Hao might lose to Chen Xiaobei if he attacked him without thinking it through. All those powerful individuals might look cool and arrogant from the outside; they were actually more afraid to die than ordinary people.
Without a 100% win rate, they would definitely not attack their opponents. And, this was exactly what Chen Xiaobei wanted from them! Things were going to be smooth sailing from now on since the enemies were afraid of Chen Xiaobei right now.
"Zhuang Hao! Watch your manners! I don't mind standing at all! No big deal!"
"But! Grandma…"
The powerful head of the Zhuang Family was asked to stand up!
The most talented genius in the Zhuang Family was kneeling!
Chen Xiaobei was sitting on the chair with his legs crossed!
This was not a face slapping moment anymore – Chen Xiaobei was practically stepping on their faces!
"No buts! Are you going to disobey me?!"
"I wouldn't dare…"
Immediately, Zhuang Hao suppressed his anger and moved to the back of the room. His fire-spitting eyes were glaring at Chen Xiaobei. It was as if the fire from his anger was going to burn Chen Xiaobei alive.
"Mr. Chen. Can we talk now?"
"Okay… Seeing that you are pretty sincere, talk!"
Acting like a boss, Chen Xioabei gave an order.
After seeing Chen Xiaobei's attitude, Zhuang Hao was so angry that he almost crushed his own teeth. Luckily, Zhuang Lao Taijun had around ten years of Qi cultivating experience. If not, her anger would have taken control of her. On the other hand, Elder Su was calm as usual. Knowing that his powerful friend was coming soon, he would know whether Chen Xiaobei was the real deal or just trying to fool them.
"Mr. Chen. I think things would not end well for the both of us if we let this matter escalate. I suggest that…"
Zhuang Lao Taijun regained her composure and prepared to make a proposal.
"Hold on right there! Things would not end well for your family! This matter would not affect me at all!"
"This…"
Stunned, Zhuang Lao Taijun almost lost it.
"Mr. Chen. I'm here to have a discussion with you! You are no gentleman if you continue to act like this!"
"Acting like this? Gentleman? These things coming out of your mouth are like jokes to me! Our first conflict began with Zhuang Bufan! The video clip shows that he is the bad guy! However, you chose to send someone to hurt me when you knew that you are at fault! Is this what a human being with a good conscience would do? Don't you feel embarrassed for what you did to me?"
Again, Zhuang Lao Taijun was rendered speechless. It was true that they had wronged Chen Xiaobei. Arguing with Chen Xiaobei would only make the situation became worse.
"Alright! Let's put a stop to all of this nonsense! Mr. Chen. Tell me! What do you want us to do for you to let Jiuxiao live? Name it and we will do it!"
"Fine! Finally, a human being with a conscience is talking!"
"I want all of you to kneel down and apologize to me! Then, I will forget about all thing that you guys have done to me!"
"This…"
Startled, they could not believe what Chen Xiaobei just said.
