374: Chapter 349: Be a Person Like Li Chen 374: Chapter 349: Be a Person Like Li Chen Aside from the family representatives who attended the banquet at the Li Family, other families that did not attend also learned of the incident the next day through the news, and with their resources, they all knew the truth, far more than what the average citizen knew.
But the more they understood, the more they feared Li Chen.
So of the major families were extrely wary of him.
The proverb says that the barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes; if anyone from their family actually provoked this calamity, it would definitely be a headache.
Therefore, many families enacted a strict rule: offend anyone but not Li Chen.
This had beco an agreed-upon restriction among nurous families.
Of course, the Iron Family was no exception.
However, what he hadn’t expected was that, not long after this ban was issued, Tie Jie imdiately went and offended Li Chen.
This threw Tie Jie’s grandfather into a state of panic; their family’s influence was even less than that of the Li Family, and if Li Chen could even destroy the Li Family, why would he fear their smaller clan?
anwhile, in the hotel lobby, after Li Chen finished speaking, a strange silence filled the room.
Guests and others were looking at Li Chen with odd expressions.
Did he really think that just a few words would make his opponent cower?
Although Li Chen had just shown great dominance, that was against a single family, and moreover, a family from Yanjing which was definitely stronger than the Macau Lin Family.
Seeing Li Chen act this way, Tie Jie felt sowhat reassured and sneered again.
He was certain that his grandfather would explode in rage soon, and when that happened, Li Chen would be finished!
But just at that mont ca a hurried voice from the speakerphone: “Ah, Brother Li Chen, there has been so misunderstanding here, yes, definitely a misunderstanding.
I didn’t an that.”
Hearing the voice from the speakerphone, Tie Jie’s smile stiffened.
Sothing wasn’t right.
Why did his grandfather’s voice sound so panicked and as if he was trying to ingratiate himself?
Tie Jie’s face went blank.
Was this really his grandfather who would remain unshaken even if Mount Tai were falling before him?
“Then what do you an?” Li Chen’s voice was still indifferent, and the guests were now feeling sowhat numb.
This man, who exactly was he, so fierce that he truly managed to make the other party retreat with just a few words?
Today, their combined level of shock might have surpassed that of an entire month, and the twists and turns of the situation were truly unexpected.
“Brother Li Chen, it is our fault for not managing our family properly.
We will definitely punish him,” Tie Jie’s grandfather continued to explain, “Moreover, if Brother Li Chen is truly angry, I will personally co over to apologize to you.”
At these words, Tie Jie was stunned.
Was even his grandfather afraid of Li Chen?
He couldn’t help but feel his earlier fear of Li Chen quietly resurfacing.
Tie Jie felt as though he was entirely seized by this fear.
Li Chen humd indifferently and then tossed the phone to Tie Jie, who’s servant quickly caught it and held it to Tie Jie’s ear.
“Grandfather, who exactly is this person?” Tie Jie’s face was unsightly, and no matter what, he hadn’t expected to have kicked an iron plate this ti.
“Who is he?
Didn’t I tell you to be more observant when you left the family?
Do your eyes only look downwards?” However, the voice on the phone started cursing loudly, wishing he could teach Tie Jie a lesson himself.
Fortunately, there was still a chance to redy the situation; otherwise, if that scourge ca knocking on their door, their family wouldn’t be safe.
So for him, it was natural to show sincerity to Li Chen now.
After a series of harsh scoldings, Tie Jie completely lost his composure, and the voice on the phone kept talking: “I just issued a prohibition recently, and it seems it didn’t even reach your ears.
Let tell you, after today, imdiately get yourself back from Macau.
If you dare to go out again within the next year, I’ll break your legs!”
Hearing his grandfather ntion the prohibition, Tie Jie’s mind raced.
Suddenly, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.
No wonder the na Li Chen felt familiar before, but he had not taken it to heart.
Who knew that this was the person who had destroyed the Li Family?
And you’re supposed to be in Yanjing, what on earth are you doing running over to Macau?
Tie Jie wanted to cry but had no tears.
If you had revealed your identity earlier, would I dare to provoke you?
“Moreover, personally apologize to Brother Li Chen.
If you don’t satisfy him, the Iron Family doesn’t need a descendant like you, and you will not be allowed to step in here again.
Now, kneel down!” The grandfather on the other end of the phone, who was almost dead from anger, unleashed all his fury on Tie Jie.
All around, as they listened to the almost roaring old man on the speakerphone, a silence fell.
Everyone looked at Li Chen with surprise and wariness in their eyes, and on the other side, Lin Weilong, who originally held so hope, now felt completely disheartened.
The influence of Li Chen was far beyond his imagination.
Hearing these words, Tie Jie’s body trembled, and he almost instantly knelt to the ground.
Resolute, he didn’t say another word and kowtowed several tis to Li Chen.
Li Chen looked at him indifferently.
Tie Jie had put so force behind the kowtows and then looked at Li Chen: “I apologize, I was blind and foolish to entertain the thought of provoking you.
That was my mistake, and I ask you to spare the Iron Family.
If there is any fault, let it fall on .”
Tie Jie was ready to bet it all.
If Li Chen truly targeted the Iron Family, then they would be dood, and it would be he who had destroyed his family, which was sothing he couldn’t accept.
Li Chen was slightly surprised by Tie Jie’s words, recognizing that he possessed so courage after all.
“I am not unreasonable,” Li Chen said lightly.
“Since you’ve admitted your wrong, let’s consider the matter closed.”
Relief washed over Tie Jie as he said, “From now on, I’ll steer clear of you; we won’t et again.”
After uttering those words, Tie Jie left the hotel lobby without looking back and arranged for soone to buy him the quickest ticket to Yanjing.
With Tie Jie’s sudden departure, only Lin Weilong and his son were left in the lobby.
Feeling Li Chen’s gaze shift towards them, Lin Weilong gritted his teeth.
If this matter couldn’t be put to rest, their Lin Family would face a grim fate.
The Iron Family was no weaker than the Lin Family, but even they had to speak in such a tone when facing Li Chen, which deeply shocked Lin Weilong.
Lin Zhen, supporting Lin Weilong, looked panic-stricken.
He hadn’t anticipated encountering soone his own father couldn’t handle.
Li Chen narrowed his eyes and was about to speak when Lin Weilong interrupted, “This ti, our Lin Family admits defeat!”
After speaking, to everyone’s astonishnt, he forcefully slamd his arms against a stone column in front of him.
“Crack”
A crisp sound echoed, as if it were the sound of breaking bones.
The onlookers in the hotel were astounded.
The Gambling King had crippled his own arms?
Lin Zhen was also shocked, while Lin Weilong’s forehead was slick with sweat, yet he didn’t utter a sound, showing a certain boldness despite the situation.
Li Chen looked at Lin Weilong and then said indifferently, “Very well, we’ll consider this matter closed, but I hope I won’t see anyone from the Lin Family again.”
“Agreed,” Lin Weilong replied, and then he led Lin Zhen and his n out of the place.
As soon as they stepped outside, Lin Weilong could no longer bear it and nearly collapsed to the ground.
“Take to the hospital,” Lin Weilong said.
Lin Zhen hurriedly helped Lin Weilong into the car, leaving everyone in the lobby in a state of shock.
“The Gambling King of Macau has just crippled his own arms?”
“My God, who is this guy?”
The bystanders were utterly stunned.
From the beginning of the incident to the current outco, it was sothing they had never imagined.
It was simply too astonishing.
“And the title of Four Young Masters of Macau can’t be ntioned anymore; he’s disabled two of them,” so people said with a shake of the head and a wry smile.
“Goodness, this person must be from so major family, otherwise he wouldn’t be so terrifying.
Look at those n in black behind him, their skills are simply fearso; they handled those special police officers effortlessly.”
“I believe so too.
He just ca to Macau for fun but happened to clash with Tie Jie and his group,” soone else added.
“Haha, what do you think would happen if the remaining two bump into him?”
“What else could happen?
There would be no more Four Young Masters of Macau, that’s for sure.”
But they were all wrong.
Li Chen wasn’t soone from a major family.
However, the events that happened in Macau had indeed reached the ears of those families.
They couldn’t help but wryly smile.
Did Li Chen have a grudge against the major families?
He seed to single out mbers of the families to strike against.
If the Lin Family and the Iron Family hadn’t apologized in ti, those two families might have been wiped out as well.
Nevertheless, they quickly issued another prohibition, insisting that their younger generation must not provoke Li Chen; otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous if that scourge fell upon their families.
In the lobby, the special police also departed — after all, they were special forces, and Li Chen had no intention of killing them.
After resolving the matter, all his subordinates disappeared; they had gone into hiding, ready to erge whenever Li Chen needed them.
The front desk attendant was still dazed by the day’s events, which had been too much for him to handle.
Even now, he hadn’t recovered, while the guests looked on with admiration as Li Chen, accompanied by Xiaoxiao and another woman, entered the elevator.
To accomplish what he had done was truly remarkable.
