The Young Urban Doctor Chapter 1057 - 1057 1057 The Li Family of Yangcheng

Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: The Li Family of Yangcheng Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: The Li Family of Yangcheng The well-known southern business tycoon, Li Jianguo, had the honor of having tea with the newly appointed Governor of Yue Province, Ling Zhengping.

Li Jianguo and Ling Zhengping had known each other for a long ti, being alumni at the sa university. They had interacted during their school days, although not much since Li Jianguo was three grades above Ling Zhengping, who had just entered the university when Li Jianguo was preparing for his internship.

While they did not have much interaction at school, rely acquaintances, this connection provided a basis for future interactions in their lives.

Li Jianguo was aware that Ling Zhengping was the eldest grandson of the Ling Family and might one day succeed the position of Family Head of the Li Family. Thus, he always treated Ling Zhengping with utmost sincerity, and over the years, their friendship remained good.

When Ling Zhengping ca to take office in Yue Province, Li Jianguo personally welcod him at the airport.

Ling Zhengping had officially started his new position, making his appearance before the dia and all the citizens of Yue Province.

These past few days, Ling Zhengping had been very busy, and Li Jianguo could not find an opportunity to invite him for a al.

During the New Year’s holiday, Li Jianguo finally got his chance and arranged to et Ling Zhengping and his son for a private tea eting.

Today was the end of the year, and being able to arrange a al with Ling Zhengping and his son on such a special day gave Li Jianguo a great sense of accomplishnt.

He knew that inviting soone like Ling Zhengping to a al required a low profile, so instead of choosing a star-rated hotel, he booked a private room in a teahouse. Apart from him and Ling Zhengping and Ling Haining, no one else was invited.

They had agreed to et at nine o’clock.

As Ling Zhengping had just assud his duties and needed to familiarize himself with many things, he still went to work on this New Year’s holiday and worked until the evening. He ate dinner casually in the cafeteria.

He did this to set a good example for his subordinates and to convey that he was a practical man.

Li Jianguo didn’t put any pressure on Ling Zhengping, just chatted with him and his son about everyday matters.

He completely avoided bringing up work or business matters.

As the most powerful business wizard in Yue Province, his ability to rapidly grow Nandu Group in just over a decade was inseparable from his political acun and extraordinary emotional intelligence.

He viewed himself as a smart man, and he believed smart n did smart things.

While he was chatting with Ling Zhengping and his son about trivial things, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Seeing that it was his son Li Qingjiang calling, Li Jianguo hung up without hesitation.

But when the phone rang again and he noticed Ling Zhengping slightly frown, Li Jianguo apologetically said, “It’s my son’s call; I suspect he’s caused trouble again.”

“Please take the call,” Ling Zhengping said, lifting his teacup and taking a sip.

After apologizing, Li Jianguo stood to answer the call.

Ling Zhengping and Ling Haining exchanged a glance without a word.

When Li Jianguo finished the call, his face looked quite grim.

Sitting down again, he hesitated for a while but ultimately did not speak of the matter.

“Li senior, what’s wrong?” Ling Zhengping asked proactively, “Have you encountered a difficult situation?”

Li Jianguo sighed and responded, “Governor Ling, I won’t hide it from you. My son got into a conflict at a KTV, and the other party was very skilled at fighting, both of my sons were injured!”

“Oh?!” Ling Zhengping appeared very surprised, “What exactly happened?”

“This could be a bit of trouble,” Li Jianguo said, not quite knowing how to word it.

He knew he should hurry over, but leaving Ling Zhengping and his son behind to deal with the issue personally seed a bit improper.

However, having both his sons beaten up was unbearably distressing for him, and he was extrely angry as well.

He had already sent one of his cousins to handle it when he had received the call, but he knew that since the assailants had dared to beat his sons, especially after revealing their identity, they must have had a strong backing.

If he didn’t show up personally, it could lead to even bigger trouble.

“If there’s trouble, then go ahead, we can et another day. I won’t be leaving right away anyway,” Ling Zhengping said magnanimously, “It’s getting late, already past ten. I’m not quite used to the dampness of the South; I haven’t been sleeping well these past few nights. I should get back to sleep early.”

“Alright then,” Li Jianguo didn’t insist further, “I’m really sorry, let’s reschedule our tea with Governor Zheng another day!”

“If anything cos up, give a call,” Ling Zhengping said politely, then left with Ling Haining.

Once in the car, Ling Zhengping stopped Ling Haining, who was about to speak, “Don’t say anything. We know nothing. Let’s go back to sleep.”

Ling Haining had no choice but to let it go.

Li Jianguo left only after Ling Zhengping and his son were gone.

As soon as he got into the car, he ordered the driver to rush to the “Night Color” entertainnt club at top speed.

“Night Color” wasn’t actually under his na but belonged to a friend of his, with whom he had a so-so relationship. His sons were regulars there, primarily because the place often had attractive won coming in.

His two sons, who were quite interested in won, frequented the place.

Li Jianguo guessed his sons got into a dispute over so beautiful woman and ca out worse for wear, which was why they had called him for help.

When Li Qingjiang called, he made the situation sound grave, but Li Jianguo knew it couldn’t have been as bad as Li Qingjiang described. However, there certainly was trouble, and it had to be out of the ordinary for soone to have the audacity to get into a fight even after his sons had dropped their family na.

——–

Luo Ziling and Yang Xiaodong almost stopped fighting at the sa ti.

The whole battle ended in less than five minutes, with all the n in black lying on the ground, having been knocked down by Luo Ziling and Yang Xiaodong.

Li Qinghe was also unfortunately kicked to the ground.

Not just Li Qinghe, but his few profligate friends and his brother Li Qingjiang, who already had a swollen face, were also taken down by Luo Ziling and Yang Xiaodong.

“I knocked down two more than you,” Yang Xiaodong held up two fingers and said cheerfully to Luo Ziling, “You were holding back!”

“Since you have energy to spare, letting you exert a bit more effort isn’t a bad thing.” Luo Ziling pointed to the people on the ground, “Let’s throw them out. I reckon the boss will make an appearance soon. Let’s see who cos out to deal with us!”

“You suspect it was the Ling family father and son who had soone do this?” Yang Xiaodong asked uncertainly.

“Can’t rule it out,” Luo Ziling nodded, “Otherwise, trouble wouldn’t have co knocking out of nowhere. These guys just barged into our private room. Are such coincidences even possible? You know, you have to have certain status to book this kind of room, especially today, at the year’s end. Everyone knows that those who can secure a room like this today must be soone important. They wouldn’t dare to be so brazen without sothing hidden behind them.”

“Alright,” Yang Xiaodong couldn’t refute, “Let’s see what kind of big shot shows up in the end.”

As they were talking and walking back to the couch, preparing to sit down, the door to the private room was violently pushed open once again.
