The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1409: Chapter 549: The ”Wang” in ”Wangyuan Moji” (Part 2)

When Li Youjun felt that there was some reason in it, Huo Chengrui quickly continued:

”Besides, a gentleman’s revenge is never too late, even after ten years. After today, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to regain your honor... By then, who will mention today’s incident?”

Li Youjun was quickly persuaded by Huo Chengrui, as he was indeed a bit intimidated by the stoic bodyguard beside Zhou Wang.

”Alright then, Brother Chengrui, since you put it that way... But let’s be clear that I’m giving you face here.”

”Understood, understood.”

Huo Chengrui had a look on his face as if he understood perfectly well, and he knew that Li Youjun was likely not going to let this go easily afterward.

But what did that have to do with him?

As long as he’s not present next time, Li Youjun can do as he pleases; it wouldn’t concern him anymore.

After pacifying Li Youjun, Huo Chengrui then turned to Zhou Wang and said with a smile, ”Mr. Zhou, how about we leave it at this for now? If you have some time later, we can have a couple of drinks.”

Saying this, Huo Chengrui was about to call Huang Yongkang and Li Youjun to leave together.

However, at this moment, Zhou Wang suddenly spoke, ”Wait.”

”Hmm?”

Huo Chengrui turned back puzzled, not knowing what else Zhou Wang wanted to say.

”When did I ever say that this matter could just be let go?”

Zhou Wang asked in a calm tone.

Huo Chengrui was momentarily stunned, not understanding Zhou Wang’s intentions, but he still replied instinctively, ”Uh... Mr. Zhou, but you’ve already let Youjun go, so there’s no need to...”

”Letting him go was me giving you face since we’ve met once.”

Zhou Wang chuckled, ”But your face can only go this far... I never said this matter was over.”

While Huo Chengrui didn’t know how to react, Li Youjun beside him was about to explode.

What the hell!

I’ve already given Mr. Huo face and temporarily stopped pursuing the matter, and yet you’re still relentless?

After all, Li Youjun was young and only a little older than Zhou Wang. Coupled with a smooth and successful upbringing, he hadn’t encountered a peer he needed to fear. So before Huo Chengrui could say anything, Li Youjun was already enraged.

”Zhou Wang... Your name is Zhou Wang, right? I’m telling you, this matter is indeed not over. Li Youjun remembers you today!”

Huo Chengrui, hearing the harsh words from Li Youjun, felt a jolt in his heart.

He didn’t care about losing face, quickly distancing himself, ”Zhou Wang, Youjun might be young and impulsive, please don’t take it to heart. How about this, I’ll try to persuade him so he definitely won’t trouble you again... Of course, if I can’t convince him, it’s just his own thoughts and has nothing to do with me.”

Everyone: ”?”

Another big question mark floated above everyone’s heads. Really, Mr. Huo, what exactly do you mean?

That almost timid tone was something everyone heard clearly this time.

Especially Li Youjun, who simply couldn’t understand Huo Chengrui’s current retreating demeanor.

This wasn’t at all the charismatic Mr. Huo he remembered, admired by countless people everywhere he went...

One should know that in today’s Hong Kong Island Consortium, the Huo Family was at its peak, and Huo Chengrui’s father, Huo Yingxiong, was the strongest candidate for the next chairman of the consortium.

What on earth was Huo Chengrui afraid of?

”Originally, I just wanted you to apologize to my friend and end it, since you seemed a bit disrespectful to women, but if Mr. Li insists on having a showdown with me, then I will naturally accompany to the end.”

Zhou Wang shrugged, indifferently said.

As Li Youjun was about to speak with a sullen face, a gentle female voice came from the side.

”Mr. Li, on such a happy day, why such a temper? Everyone here is our esteemed guest, why don’t we all sit down and discuss things calmly...”

It turned out Mu Li had finally arrived.

Actually, she wasn’t that late; it was just that upon noticing the situation getting out of control, she first spoke with the butler, Old Xu, to understand the ins and outs of the situation.

Hearing that Zhou Wang hadn’t suffered a loss, while Mr. Li was embarrassed in public, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon after, she was somewhat worried.

After all, in her understanding, she couldn’t be entirely sure of Zhou Wang’s status, and even if Zhou Wang was as impressive as described by her ”relative”, he was still just a so-called dragon crossing the river. Yet on Peng City territory, which was adjacent to Hong Kong Island and Ao Island, Mr. Li was genuinely the ”local tyrant”...

Mu Li also feared Zhou Wang might suffer an immediate loss, leading to greater difficulties in their subsequent cooperation.

After all, no matter what, this was considered her territory.

So she stepped in timely, wanting to mediate the situation.

”President Mu, I’m afraid I don’t deserve such a title as ’esteemed guest’, since I haven’t heard of any esteemed guest being strangled on the host’s territory without anyone standing up for justice...”

Seeing Mu Li appear, Li Youjun sneered, his words full of sarcasm.

Mu Li quickly apologized, ”I apologize, Mr. Li, I believe there’s some misunderstanding here. How about this, give me some time, and I’ll ensure you get a satisfactory explanation.”

”Explanation?”

Li Youjun sneered, ”No need, the face I lost, I’ll reclaim on my own terms.”

With that, Li Youjun took a long look at Zhou Wang, then made to leave while pulling out his phone.

Clearly, he intended to call in some other ”strength”.

”When did I say... you could leave?”

Zhou Wang said coolly.

Xiao Wang took the hint, not needing Zhou Wang’s command, suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Li Youjun by the neck again, and pulled him back.

Once more, being publicly held, the redness that had just faded from Li Youjun’s face surged back, and everyone, except for Huo Chengrui, was stunned.

Nobody expected Zhou Wang to be so ”brazen”, not intending to give Li Youjun any face at all.

This was sealing the enmity for good!

Huang Yongkang widened his eyes and instinctively looked at Huo Chengrui; the meaning was clear... Do something!

But he didn’t know that at this moment, Huo Chengrui simply kept thinking... This Zhou Wang truly lived up to his father’s acknowledgment as a remarkable person, his actions were truly damn bold!

Mu Li was also caught off guard by this scene, especially since right then, Li Youjun was looking up at her, angrily questioning:

”President Mu, is this the explanation you’re talking about?!”

The large number of security personnel gathered around were all raring to go, but without Mu Li’s orders, they could only hold themselves back.

Mu Li herself didn’t know what to do; she didn’t want to have a falling out with Zhou Wang, but in broad daylight, she couldn’t just watch Li Youjun be humiliated...

As if sensing something, Zhou Wang glanced at her and smiled, ”Sorry for making things difficult for President Mu, but don’t worry, this is a personal grudge between us, I’ll handle it myself, I assure it won’t involve President Mu.”

Mu Li, hearing this, immediately fell silent.

She seemed to catch some deep meaning in Zhou Wang’s gaze, and finally, she could only helplessly say, ”Please, Mr. Zhou, mind the propriety of it, this is still a public place after all...”

”Don’t worry, I have no other intentions. I just want this Mr. Li to learn to distinguish right from wrong, and to offer a proper apology.”

Zhou Wang said seriously.

...

As the scene spiraled out of control once more, in an obscure, empty corner at the edge of the deck, Wang Chengyun tightly gripped the phone which he had dialed through, speaking with respect and urgency:

”Sorry, sorry, President Li, I didn’t mean to disturb you... Yes, it’s Mr. Li Youjun who has encountered trouble here... There’s a bit of a problem...”

”President Li, I told you, but I didn’t expect the other party to be so reckless, utterly disregarding the Li Family’s reputation...”

”Hmm, yes... His name is Zhou Wang... Uh, which Wang? It should be the ’Wang’ in ’unreachable’...”
