Just as Lone Wolf ntioned, he only used words to threaten Bai Huanyu without taking any actual action.
This was also due to Xiao Feng's specific instructions. Otherwise, with Lone Wolf's temper and the resentnt from stepping on a nail at the Bai Family previously, he might really have directly killed Bai Huanyu.
As for why Xiao Feng didn't want Lone Wolf to physically harm Bai Huanyu, it was because he wanted to leave the other party so dignity.
After all, Bai Huanyu had been an established figure in Jiangcheng for several decades, and dealing with him couldn't be as straightforward and brutal as dealing with a common petty thief.
"Let him go," Xiao Feng instructed.
In his view, he had already extended this courtesy. Whether Bai Huanyu accepted it was beyond his control.
If Bai Huanyu would stop here, then they could part ways without further issues.
But if he refused to take the hint and continued to be stubborn, Xiao Feng didn't mind helping him further along his path of destruction.
If taking a step back didn't lead to a broader outlook, then he would take a thousand steps forward to overco all obstacles!
"Click!"
The door to the private room opened from the outside, and Wang Lubo walked in.
Xiao Feng astutely noticed that as soon as Wang Lubo entered, a young man at the table suddenly looked panicked.
His expression beca unnatural, giving off the vibe of a guilty conscience.
When he looked at Wang Lubo, he saw that his face was as dark as it could be, as if his mood was at its lowest point.
Xiao Feng frowned slightly. It was the first ti he saw Wang Lubo with such a reaction.
What did that young man actually do?
"Wang Haiquan, President of Jiangcheng Hangmi Travel Corporation, it's you, right?"
Wang Lubo walked directly behind the young man with the odd expression and said in a dull tone.
The young man, referred to as Wang Haiquan, quickly stood up and bowed slightly, saying, "Hello, Mr. Wang!"
At that mont, the room fell silent, and the socialites put down their glasses, not knowing what had happened.
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" Wang Lubo asked with a stern expression.
Wang Haiquan shuddered, and cold sweat imdiately dripped from his sowhat handso face: "I... I know."
"Bang!"
Wang Lubo raised his right hand and slamd it onto the back of a chair, then dragged the chair aside that was blocking his way.
The people sitting on either side of Wang Haiquan saw that a fight was about to break out and imdiately vacated their seats to avoid getting caught up in the trouble.
Wang Haiquan was so frightened that he trembled and hastily said, "Mr. Wang, I was just joking with you. You're a bigger person, don't take it seriously with !"
Despite his words, Xiao Feng clearly saw that the man's eyes were full of resentnt and unwillingness, without a trace of apology.
"Ladies and gentlen, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by everyone. You're probably all curious about what kind of joke Mr. Wang here played on , right?"
The socialites in the private room glanced at each other and then all nodded.
Without wasting words, Wang Lubo imdiately took out his phone and displayed a photo.
Those at a distance stood up and walked over.
anwhile, cold sweat poured from Wang Haiquan's forehead like a spring, and he kept bowing, admitting his mistake, begging for rcy with sweet talk.
"You're afraid of people knowing what you did?" Wang Lubo said, suppressing his anger, "Moreover, the dia has already spread the photo. Anyone can see it when they open their phones."
The socialites who had gathered around paused and took out their phones to search for the photo.
Wang Lubo handed his phone to a server, instructing them to display the photo on a screen that occupied two-thirds of the wall in the private room.
Following his instructions, the server skillfully connected the phone to the screen and projected the photo.
The mont they saw the content of the photo, nearly three hundred notable figures in the room all had their expressions changed.
The looks they gave Wang Haiquan contained pity, but more than that, there was indifference, feeling that he had brought it upon himself!
The content of the photo was simple: it was a close-up of the "super-extra-large flower basket" sent by Wang Lubo.
To be precise, it was the part with the words "Mr. Wang Lubo" on it, and that's where the problem lay.
Soone had added the words "for eternity" after "Mr. Wang Lubo" with a pen.
You should know, typically when these words appear after a person's na, it ans that person is already dead.
Life and death are always taboo topics, and even among friends, most wouldn't openly joke about it.
Given this, even if Wang Lubo truly retaliated against Wang Haiquan, the crowd wouldn't find any fault in it.
"This is textbook baffling behavior," Zhao Guo'an remarked, clicking his tongue in wonder, "Does he think everyone is blind?"
Xiao Feng laughed, "You've already said it's baffling behavior. Normal thinking won't comprehend it, unless you're not a normal person."
The other socialites also began to discuss, each expressing their views on the matter.
After a while, Wang Lubo fixed his gaze unwaveringly on Wang Haiquan and said sharply, "Tell , why did you play such a 'joke' on ?
I think you should understand, the premise of a joke is that the other party finds it funny.
Do you think your joke makes feel like laughing?"
After he finished, he turned his gaze to the socialites present and said, "I also ask everyone here to ask yourselves, if soone joked with you like this, would you feel like laughing?"
The answer to this question, of course, was without suspense.
Xiao Feng looked at Wang Lubo, and then at the reactions of most people present, showing a look of approval in his eyes.
Bozai had grown a lot over this period.
Whether in temper or in handling issues, he had elevated his approach compared to before.
If it were the past, when faced with such a matter, it's likely that Wang Lubo would have kicked open the door and had his bodyguards drag Wang Haiquan out for a beating.
But now, he laid out the facts and reasoned things out, ensuring everyone understood the situation before using words to generate empathy.
In this way, even if he physically punished Wang Haiquan afterward, no one would think ill of him.
After a long pause, Wang Haiquan, stared down by hundreds of eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll be honest, the reason I did this all stems from our betting agreent.
My company's operations weren't good, and with the agreent about to expire, your company called my office eight tis a day; who can stand that?"
Instantly, so in the crowd saw things differently. Everything has a cause, and even though Wang Haiquan's thod was excessive, was it not excessive for Wang Lubo's company to call eight tis a day?
However, Wang Lubo coldly chuckled and said, "Why were there eight calls? Don't you know deep down?
If the first seven could get through, or if you personally answered, would there be an eighth call?
Moreover, if you're dissatisfied with the agreent, you shouldn't have signed it in the first place. Did I force you at knifepoint to sign?
Since you signed it, you should uphold the spirit of the contract."
Pausing for a mont, Wang Lubo then smiled and said, "Initially, I planned to give you so leniency or lower the conditions.
But since you acted unfairly first, you can't bla for being ruthless!"
The socialites held their breath, eager to see how Wang Lubo would handle Wang Haiquan.
