"Master Su, you... you’re being too much!" After a mont of silence, Wang Hui could no longer contain himself, "I’ve already apologized, and besides, it was only us who got beaten up, you haven’t suffered at all, how... how can you treat like this?"
"Did I ever say that I would let you go just because you apologized?" Su Yang retorted, "Didn’t I say that I always get even with my enemies? Since you want to see rot in jail, you should also prepare to rot in jail yourselves!"
"You... you’re totally untrustworthy!" Wang Hui exclaid angrily, "If that’s the case, why should I apologize to you at all!"
"I didn’t ask you to apologize to either!" Su Yang sneered, "What? Feeling upset, aren’t you? The great Young Master Wang, usually so arrogant, now apologizing personally, and on top of that being beaten until his face is bloody, and still not forgiven—doesn’t that irritate you?"
Wang Hui had completely lost his temper by now, shouting furiously, "Yes, I’m frustrated. I’ve never seen soone like you. There’s a saying that you should always leave a way out for others, so that you can et again in the future. I’ve already apologized, yet you’re still ruthlessly pushing for my downfall, what kind of reasoning is that!"
"Fine, then I’ll let you know why I have to do this!" Su Yang said coldly, "Wang Hui, if it were just a few ordinary people sitting in this private room today, instead of us, how would you treat them?"
"I..." Wang Hui opened his mouth but didn’t know how to answer.
"With your character, you would not only have given them a good beating but also made them kneel and beg for rcy!" Su Yang said coldly, "Your friends are all here, why not let them tell us about the many tis you’ve done things like this?"
Wang Hui’s face changed rapidly, and he said sternly, "That’s my business, it has nothing to do with you. Mind your own business, Su, why bother with other people’s matters?"
"Sorry, but I’m the kind of person who likes to ddle!" Su Yang replied coldly, "Moreover, I want to let you know what happens when you rely on your father’s identity to throw your weight around and behave outrageously! If your father is clean, then you have nothing to worry about. But if your father himself is dirty, then I advise you second-generation spawns of the wealthy and powerful to better keep a low profile!"
Many people nearby sighed in admiration upon hearing Su Yang’s words, including a number of individuals who had co from poverty, especially those from Destiny Martial Arts. Su Yang’s words resonated with them deeply.
Fatty waved his hand and said, "Alright, get lost, and don’t spoil Master Fatty’s mood while I’m eating!"
Wang Hui wanted to say more, but Xiao Ding had already sent people over who covered his mouth and dragged him out. Wang Hui’s fair-weather friends ran faster than anyone, and as soon as they left the private room, they vanished without a trace.
"Alright, let’s leave it at that. Everyone, I’m treating my friends to a al, so we won’t keep you," Su Yang said with a dismissive wave and a smile.
"Master Su, sorry for the disturbance!" Young Master Qin and his two companions said their polite goodbyes, also shaking hands with each mber of Destiny Martial Arts with the utmost respect. After all, these were friends recognized by Su Yang.
People from Destiny Martial Arts were all kids from poor families. On an ordinary day, they’d look up at those rich or officials’ kids who were always high and mighty, not to ntion the offspring of the great families.
Now, eting the progenies of the Top Ten Families of Pingnan Province, who treated them with such a respectful manner, naturally, they felt even more pleasantly overwheld.
As for Lin Zi, she was still kneeling on the ground. Su Yang did not tell her to stand up, so she did not dare to do so.
Throughout the whole process, Su Yang and his friends ate, drank, and laughed, completely ignoring Lin Zi, as if there was no such person in the private room at all.
Lin Zi knelt there, feeling incredibly annoyed and frustrated.
The waiters by the table, who were far less significant than her in this place, were now sitting at the table, able to talk and laugh with Su Yang. If this got out, their worth would naturally soar.
And before, she had been the one sitting beside Su Yang. Now, she could only kneel there. All because of her vanity, she had ended up in this state. She felt extre regret in her heart, but in this world, there is no such thing as a pill for regret!
After Su Yang and his friends finished their al and left, Lin Zi carefully stood up while leaning on the wall. Because she had knelt for such a long ti, she felt dizzy and nearly tumbled to the ground.
As soon as she stepped out of the private room, Lin Zi found Xiao Ding with a few people waiting there for her. Her complexion imdiately changed. If Xiao Ding and his n were still here, could there be anything good in store for her?
"Brother Ding..." Lin Zi’s voice trembled.
"Let’s go!" Xiao Ding said, waving his hand, not showing her any kindness.
"Where... where are we going..." Lin Zi’s face was full of fear.
"To see Lord Yan!" Xiao Ding said coldly.
"Lord Yan?" Lin Zi’s face turned ashen. Eight-Faced Yama was known for his extrely cruel thods. Going to see Eight-Faced Yama, what good ending could there be?
"Brother Ding, do we... do we really have to et with Lord Yan?" Lin Zi asked in a quivering voice, "Master Su didn’t say he wanted to punish ..."
"What’s the use of asking ?" Xiao Ding said coldly, "Master Su is a very important person that Lord Yan repeatedly told to take care of. You offended him, if I don’t take you to Lord Yan, how am I supposed to explain myself? Are you really that stupid? Today, I took special care of you, personally placing you beside Master Su, hoping that you could benefit from close proximity. And yet, what the hell did you manage to do? If Lord Yan isn’t happy, I’ll have to suffer alongside you!"
"I... I didn’t know who this Master Su really was..." Lin Zi’s voice trembled, "You didn’t tell , how... how was I supposed to know who he was..."
"Nonsense, being able to sit in our best private room, personally arranged by , and besides, I didn’t dare tell you his na, didn’t you understand the situation?" Xiao Ding snapped, "This is soone in front of whom, when he sits, even Lord Yan can only stand. Are you tired of living? You actually dared to insult him? Lord Yan can sit as an equal with the heads of the Ten Great Families. Just think, what kind of status does Master Su have!"
Lin Zi collapsed to the ground again. She only knew that the heads of the Ten Great Families were very powerful, but she didn’t know the specifics.
But Eight-Faced Yama was different. The most influential underground kingpin in Pingnan Province, with incredibly ruthless thods, could maintain his composure even in front of governnt officials. To them, Eight-Faced Yama was akin to a Celestial Being!
And before Su Yang, even Eight-Faced Yama could only stand – if it wasn’t Xiao Ding himself saying this, she would never have believed it!
Who exactly was this Su Yang, to be such an otherworldly figure?
