I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan Chapter 538 - 440 Perfunctory

In the next instant, Xia Liang slamd his hand onto the back of Li Chao’s head, smashing it down once more. The force of the blow even cracked the marble dining table.

Then, Xia Liang grabbed Li Chao by the back of his neck and flung him toward the door. A mont later, as if nothing had happened, Xia Liang simply picked up a new glass and resud his al.

The entire exchange happened in a matter of seconds. From start to finish, Xia Liang hadn’t even budged from his seat.

Even Fang Youxue and Chu Lingmu were stunned. Chu Lingmu quickly ca to her senses and tried to pull the others to leave, but Xia Liang held her back.

anwhile, Li Chao staggered to his feet by the doorway. His mind was fuzzy, but he quickly pieced together what had just occurred.

"You little punk, do you know who I am? How dare you hit ! Just you wait, This Master will absolutely cripple one of your legs today!"

Roaring, Li Chao pulled out his phone to call for backup. He had only co to treat another anchor to dinner, so he hadn’t brought any of his underlings. Seeing that Xia Liang had dealt with him in just two moves, he didn’t dare to act rashly. Instead, he blocked the entrance and started making his calls.

Inside the private room, Xia Liang seed completely unconcerned, simply continuing with his al. The two won beside him, however, had lost their appetites. The commotion was so loud that it disturbed the occupants of the adjacent private room, and several figures erged.

The man in the lead appeared to be in his thirties or forties.

"Li Chao? What happened? Why is your head covered in blood?" the man from the neighboring room asked. He clearly knew Li Chao.

"Secretary Liu, I didn’t expect to see you here. There’s a little punk in this room who ca looking for trouble with and even hit . You have to stand up for , This Master is going to make this kid spend the rest of his life in jail!"

When Li Chao saw that the n from the next room were all Qingyun City officials, he knew that getting physical revenge today was likely impossible. But as long as I can get that kid thrown in jail, I have ten thousand ways to torture him.

Hearing this, the man frowned slightly. He knew exactly what kind of person Li Chao was; Li Chao had undoubtedly started trouble and gotten himself beaten up. He even felt a flicker of secret delight, but he couldn’t let it show. It looks like Li Chao isn’t going to let this go. I need to figure sothing out.

With that, the man glanced into Xia Liang’s private room. His eyes landed on a familiar back.

"Master Xia?"

The man exclaid, and in the next second, he walked straight into the private room. Now he was certain it was Xia Liang. At that mont, Xia Liang’s glass was empty again. The man quickly hurried over, refilled Xia Liang’s glass, and smiled apologetically the entire ti.

Seeing this, Li Chao was dumbstruck. Others might not recognize this man, but he knew exactly who it was.

The man who had just entered was Liu Yu, Secretary to the leader of Qingyun City. In all of Qingyun City, he was a man of imnse power, second only to one and above all others. And now, this very person was standing beside a young man, personally pouring his wine. If I were at that table with him, I would be the one pouring his wine. Who on earth is this kid?

At this thought, Li Chao’s expression grew grim. And Secretary Liu’s next words made Li Chao so unsteady he could barely stand.

"I wonder if Master Xia is free tomorrow. Commander Sun would like to invite you to his ho for a casual al. I was planning to look for you after my own dinner."

Hearing this, Li Chao’s mind went completely blank with a loud buzz. It wasn’t just Secretary Liu; even Commander Sun himself wanted to invite this young man for a al! That’s the Great Commander of Qingyun City! What kind of person is so important that Commander Sun would personally invite him to his ho for dinner?

Li Chao’s face turned deathly pale. I’ve provoked soone truly terrifying.

He knew that for the past few days, Sun Zhihai had been planning a citywide crackdown on corruption and cri. That was why he had been keeping a low profile, hoping to ride out the storm. But seeing how reverently Secretary Liu treats this man... all it would take is one word from Xia Liang. I won’t have any future in Qingyun City. I’ll probably spend the rest of my life in prison.

Commander Sun’s full na was Sun Zhihai.

anwhile, after Secretary Liu asked his question, Xia Liang simply nodded. I’ve never t Sun Zhihai before. This invitation to his ho is likely because of Elder Sun. After hearing about from the old man, Sun Zhihai probably has a favor to ask. I have no reason to refuse.

Beside them, Secretary Liu was thanking Xia Liang profusely. Xia Liang just made a few dismissive remarks, but Secretary Liu nodded eagerly in response.

"That’s a given, but..." Secretary Liu gestured toward Li Chao, who was still standing at the doorway.

Xia Liang gave a slow nod.

At the nod, Secretary Liu turned around, his expression turning icy.

Li Chao, being the shrewd man he was, imdiately sensed the danger. He vaulted over the railing, scrambled down the stairs, and bolted.

Secretary Liu was stunned that Li Chao had fled before he could even speak. But Xia Liang simply remarked lightly, "He won’t get far."

The minor interruption didn’t affect Xia Liang’s mood in the slightest.
