Chapter 740: Chapter 221: Testing _2
Wei Hanshan couldn’t imagine if the assault was aimed at him earlier, whether he would have been able to escape with his life.
Therefore, even though his heart was burning with anger, Wei Hanshan didn’t dare to vent his anger loudly, nor dare to retaliate on the spot.
“Overboard? I don’t think so,”
Link picked up the white napkin and methodically wiped his right hand fingers as if he had touched something filthy and calmly replied, “Barging into this private room is disrespectful. Even after entering, your son pointed at me, which is also disrespectful. Not knowing how to behave, and still pointing at me, is the height of disrespect. Mr. Wei, fortunately, your son encountered me and only ended up with a broken finger, which can be reattached. If he had run into some short-tempered people, even getting beaten is considered light, perhaps he could even have lost his life. Don’t you agree, Mr. Wei?”
Upon hearing this, Wei Hanshan’s face fluctuated between anger and pale.
A moment later, Wei Hanshan stood up and harshly slapped the scholarly young man across the face, reprimanding, “Haven’t you thanked Young Hero Lin yet for his lesson?”
The scholarly young man, covering his right cheek that had a clear hand print, looked at Wei Hanshan in disbelief. Then he turned his head and rebelliously responded with silence.
Another slap resonated.
Wei Hanshan backhanded a slap to the scholarly young man’s left cheek: “I told you, thank Young Hero Lin.”
The scholarly young man clenched his jaw, held back the pain and indignation, and in a voice choking back tears, bowed to Link: “Thank you, Young Hero Lin, for the lesson.”
“You’re welcome,”
Link waved, “Go get some ice to put on your face. It looks pretty painful.”
“Aren’t you going yet?”
Seeing the young man lower his head and glare at Link, Wei Hanshan reprimanded him again.
The scholarly young man, with his swelling face, left the private room.
“Young Hero Lin, thank you very much for disciplining my son. His upbringing has been unsatisfactory, causing you to see this sideshow, I really owe you an apology.”
Wei Hanshan, as if he had received a huge favor from Link, kept thanking and apologizing, conveniently forgetting that he barged into the private room initially to teach Link a lesson.
To stop Link from investigating Li Sisi’s premature love affairs.
The speed and thoroughness of his about-face were indeed worthy of a ruthless man who could establish a large-scale industrial group from scratch.
Link then seriously looked at Wei Hanshan and said earnestly, “Mr. Wei, you know exactly why I’m in the province. Let me warn you, if it’s not your own doing, you don’t need to carry the burden for others. You might become the scapegoat instead.”
Wei Hanshan’s face froze, then he chuckled: “What is Young Hero Lin talking about? I have always been peace-loving and prefer to keep a harmonious relationship with everyone, won’t do such a foolish act.”
“Is that so?”
Link remained commentless and simply responded indifferently.
Wei Hanshan didn’t continue with the topic, filled up a glass of white wine, raised it, and seriously said: “I’m the one at fault tonight, and I’ve annoyed Hall Master Shi and Young Hero Lin. Allow me to make amends.”
As he said this, he emptied the entire glass, nearly three ounces of strong white wine.
Setting down the glass, Wei Hanshan said: “I won’t continue to disturb you both any longer. Tonight’s expenses are on me, as a token of my apology.”
Without waiting for Brother Shi and Link to respond, he turned around and left.
The private room was soon left with Brother Shi, Link, and the Martial Arts Hall disciples who couldn’t stop Wei Hanshan and his entourage.
“It’s not your fault, go back and have a good meal.”
Brother Shi waved his hand at several Martial Arts Hall disciples who looked guilty.
It’s been less than six years since the establishment of a Martial Arts Hall in the province. It had only been able to train some disciples in the spiritual energy realm, and there haven’t been any disciples in the Condensation realm who can represent the school.
It’s understandable that they couldn’t stop the local bully, Wei Hanshan.
“Yes, Hall Master”
The few Martial Arts Hall disciples breathed a sigh of relief, saluted, and left the private room, closing the door.
“Younger brother, what do you think Wei Hanshan is really trying to accomplish tonight?”
With only the two of them left, Brother Shi no longer hid his thoughts and directly expressed his doubts, “It looked like he was here to show his power, but then it turned into him trying to sever any connection with Seventh Junior Sister’s affair. I am really puzzled.”
Link smiled lightly: “This is exactly the craftiness of the old fox, Wei Hanshan. As long as he showed up tonight, he could report back. Whether it was to show his power or to sever relationships, it doesn’t matter.”
“You mean?”
Brother Shi seemed to understand something.
“Yes.”
Link affirmed Brother Shi’s guess.
“Sigh!”
Brother Shi couldn’t help but take a cold breath.
The Octagon Martial Arts Center’s six-year rapid development places it as the number one Martial Arts School in Danyang Prefecture.
In terms of power and influence, it’s almost at par with Wei Corporation, thus they balanced each other out.
Listening to Link’s meaning, it seems he wants to use Seventh Junior Sister Li Sisi as a breakthrough to deal with the people of Octagon Martial Arts School while still remaining hidden.
Wei Hanshan and his son, they are merely chess pieces in their opponent’s hands.
Even, manipulating Seventh Junior Sister’s cognition with some insidious methods, it’s probably just a small test.
“Since when did we, the Octagon Martial Arts School, offend such a treacherous person?”
Brother Shi felt puzzled and apprehensive at the same time.
Moving targets are easy to hit, while hidden arrows are hard to guard!
“No need to worry too much, Brother Shi. We just need to be cautious, alert and ready. Water covers earth, soldiers will block the enemy.”
Link calmly reassured his suddenly anxious older brother/master.
“Hmm.”
Brother Shi nodded, took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions.
After this incident, he didn’t have the heart to take Link to enjoy tonight’s “main course”.
Link noticed the change in his brother’s mood and offered a way out: “Brother, the boat’s rocking so much. I’m tired and need to rest.”
“Ah? Okay, okay, good.”
Brother Shi was taken aback before quickly agreeing.
The two brothers led their martial arts disciples out of the hotel to go back to their school.
As for the bill, Wei Hanshan had said that he would bear the expenses, so naturally, he’d pay it.
In another place.
Wei Hanshan had immediately sought out his son after leaving the private room.
The refined young Wei Bowen had already fixed his index finger and was receiving ice compress treatment to reduce the swelling on his face.
“Father, what’s the result?”
Seeing Wei Hanshan entering the room, Wei Bowen waved away the two hotel room attendants who were helping him with the ice compress, and asked anxiously.
“We’re in trouble.”
Wei Hanshan pondered over tonight’s encounter with Link, and said with a troubled face, “Lin is not as easy to fool as Shi Gandang.”
“He’s the same age as me, isn’t he? Seventeen?”
Wei Bowen asked with ghostly eyes.
“Yes, he’s indeed your age. However, he cannot be treated with the same consideration. We need to be cautious.”
Wei Hanshan warned cryptically.
“Father, I understand.”
Wei Bowen promptly responded.
“Understand?”
Wei Hanshan forced out a word from his nostrils, then angrily reprimanded,
“If you truly understand, you won’t have forgotten my repeated warnings about not getting too involved with your cousin! Mechanical martial arts, although they deviate from tradition, are essentially good and can promote the development of the world.
Otherwise, those Human Immortal Martial Path sects that have been around for hundreds, or even thousands of years would have annihilated them, at their inception.”
Your cousin’s family, however, is not just deviating from the norm!
It’s a blasphemy, a demonic behavior, it’s eerie!
If this gets exposed, not just human immortal martial artists, but even mechanical martial artists, would decisively kill them off!
You, on the other hand, not only do not stay away from your cousin, but, under her instigation, you have even set your sights on Li Shuwen’s daughter!
You’re truly courting death!”
After being scolded by his father, Wei Bowen knew in his heart that his father was right, but he couldn’t suppress his teenage rebellious spirit, and couldn’t help but murmur: “She’s just a martial arts school head. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Just a school head?”
Wei Hanshan immediately raised his voice, unconsciously raising his right hand, wanting to slap Wei Bowen again. But he held back, pointing his finger at Wei Bowen’s nose and scolding, “You are killing me! If you knew anything about the history of Jianghu, you wouldn’t be ignorant of the Divine Gun Li Shuwen’s fame! It’s him who has been known to fight and pacify a whole generation of martial artists in the southern pugilistic world with just one punch and one gun! If he hadn’t changed his name in recent years, and unwilling to leave Fuli County, the entire Jianghu of Danyang Prefecture, would have changed completely!”
Upon hearing this, Wei Bowen’s mouth twitched a few times, a feeling of fear creeping up in his heart.
No wonder his father hurriedly followed when he forced open the door to the private room tonight.
It turns out, he was worried about his life!
What do you think?
