Chapter 26: Young Master Ye
At this moment, Ma Lan was so scared that she was screaming, having closed her eyes and braced herself for a slap, but suddenly realized that the fierce hand had not come down.
She opened her eyes and was immediately startled!
Her useless son-in-law, Ye Chen, had actually come out at this moment to block the opponent’s hand!
This…
Her mind short-circuited for a moment, unable to comprehend how this useless Ye Chen had gained such boldness.
Old Master Hong did not expect that someone would dare to stand up for this damned woman at this time. He coldly questioned, “Who are you? Do you want to die too?”
Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, “You must be Old Master Hong, right? Give me some face; you can hit that dead dog over there as much as you want, but you can’t touch my mother-in-law!”
Old Master Hong’s face darkened as he replied, “This old woman is your mother-in-law? Then what are you? Do you think you deserve my respect?”
As he spoke, Old Master Hong’s anger surged within him.
He had always been revered by countless people in Jinling, yet today he faced disrespect one after another.
First, there was a Wang Yunkai shouting in front of him, and now there was a disgusting old woman nagging beside him.
Now, another young man had jumped out to point fingers at him. Did he really think that Old Master Hong was someone that any cat or dog could provoke at will?
Thinking of this, he immediately exploded in rage and shouted at the people around him, “Kill this ignorant fool!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, “Hold on, let me make a call and have the person on the line talk to you.”
With that, he took out his phone and called Chen Zekai, the person in charge of the Platinum Palace.
As soon as the call connected, the other party respectfully said, “Young Master, what can I do for you?”
Ye Chen casually asked, “Do you know a guy named Old Master Hong in Jinling?”
Chen Zekai hurriedly laughed and said, “Young Master, I know this Hong Wu you mentioned. People outside say he is the underground king of Jinling, but he is just a small-time loser!”
He continued, “This guy knows I’m from the Ye family and has been trying to curry favor with me. He has asked me to have a meal with him several times, but I’ve ignored him. Why? Do you know him, Young Master?”
Ye Chen casually replied, “Oh, this loser wants to kill me now.”
Chen Zekai immediately exploded on the other end of the line: “Damn it, does Hong Wu want to die? He dares to provoke our Young Master! Where are you now? I’ll bring people over right away and take care of this loser!”
Ye Chen said, “Give him the phone; you talk to him.”
After saying that, he handed the phone to Old Master Hong and said, “Here, you take this.”
Old Master Hong was filled with suspicion.
What was going on? This guy didn’t seem like he was acting.
Could it be that he really had some impressive background?
He didn’t look like it; his clothes and appearance were very ordinary, probably not worth five hundred yuan in total, and even the phone he used was one that cost a few hundred yuan. What kind of power could he have? Who could he possibly have backing him?
Feeling disdainful, Old Master Hong still instinctively took the phone and tentatively asked, “Hello, I’m Hong Wu. Who are you? Do you want to support this kid?”
On the other end, Chen Zekai immediately scolded, “Hong Wu! Are you tired of living? You dare to provoke our Young Master? Do you believe that I can make your entire family of twenty-five disappear without a trace tonight?”
Old Master Hong recognized the voice; wasn’t this the Chen Zekai he had been trying to curry favor with?
He said he had provoked his family’s Young Master?
Could it be, could it be this kid in front of him?
Moreover, he immediately mentioned his entire family of twenty-five; had he already figured out all his background?
He was the spokesperson for the Ye family in Jinling! The Ye family was extraordinarily powerful; wanting to kill him was no different from squashing an ant!
Hearing this, he was instantly terrified.
He blurted out, “Mr. Chen, please don’t be angry. I misunderstood; I was just having a little misunderstanding with the Young Master…”
“Shut up!” Chen Zekai scolded. “The identity of our Young Master is highly confidential. If you leak it, be careful that I kill your entire family!”
Old Master Hong trembled all over, shaking worse than someone with Parkinson’s, and hurriedly said, “Mr. Chen, I’m in the wrong! I’ll definitely handle this matter well…”
Just a mention of Mr. Chen was enough to make him grovel, and the Ye family above Mr. Chen was an ultimate existence he could only look up to for a lifetime…
But now, he had unknowingly offended the Ye family’s Young Master?!
Thinking of this, Old Master Hong’s gaze focused on Ye Chen, and he instinctively softened his legs, kneeling in front of Ye Chen, saying in fear, “Mr. Ye, I’m sorry! I didn’t know she was your mother-in-law. I was foolish; I apologize! Please forgive me!”
After saying that, he immediately knelt before Ye Chen.
Everyone present was dumbfounded, watching Old Master Hong actually kneel and apologize to this useless Ye Chen???
Even Wang Dasha was like a dead dog in front of Old Master Hong, but this young man could make Old Master Hong kneel on the ground. Who on earth was he?!
Old Master Hong’s subordinates were also stunned!
Old Master Hong was the underground king of Jinling! What kind of young man could make him kneel?!
Ye Chen didn’t want Old Master Hong’s life; after all, he was hitting his mother-in-law, not him.
Moreover, to be honest, Ye Chen felt quite pleased watching his mother-in-law get hit!
So he said to Old Master Hong, “I can forgive you this time, but you must return the money you scammed from my mother-in-law, with interest!”
Old Master Hong felt as if he had been granted a reprieve. He truly did not expect that Young Master Ye would forgive him. Grateful for his second chance, he quickly bowed his head and said, “You can rest assured; I’ll take care of it right away!”
With that, he immediately shouted at Zhou Huaxin beside him, “Why aren’t you going to handle it? If you delay, I’ll break your legs!”
Ma Lan was completely stunned. Was this really her useless son-in-law? Even the famous Old Master Hong had to kneel and bow to him?
In an instant, Ma Lan felt that Ye Chen’s image had grown tall in her eyes, even becoming unfathomable.
Wang Yunkai, who had just received several slaps, was also dumbfounded. Wasn’t Ye Chen known as a useless person? Why was even Old Master Hong so afraid of him?
At this moment, Zhou Huaxin, pale-faced, brought over a black leather suitcase and approached Ma Lan, saying in panic, “Auntie, your principal of 1.3 million yuan, plus the promised dividend of 200,000 yuan, totals 1.5 million. Here are 2 million yuan, and the remaining 500,000 is our little apology. Please accept it…”
Ma Lan was completely stunned!
When did her useless son-in-law gain such great power?
The principal was returned, the promised 200,000 yuan dividend was returned, and they even gave an extra 500,000 yuan?
