Chapter 26 – Young Master Ye!
Elizabeth Ma screamed in terror, her eyes shut tight, bracing for the slap that never came.
She opened her eyes and was stunned!
Her useless son-in-law, James Ye, had stepped in to block the slap!
This...
Her mind went blank. How did this worthless James suddenly get so bold?
Lord Hong was equally surprised that someone dared to stand up for this wretched woman. He coldly asked, "Who are you? Do you want to die too?"
James smiled faintly, "Lord Hong, right? Do me a favor. You can beat that dead dog over there all you want, but not my mother-in-law!"
Lord Hong's face darkened. "This old woman is your mother-in-law? And who the hell are you to ask for my favor?"
As he spoke, anger surged within him. In Jinling, he was always revered by many, but today he faced repeated disrespect.
First, Eric Wang had yelled at him, then this disgusting old woman had chirped incessantly.
Now, a young man dared to point fingers at him. Did they think Lord Hong was someone any random person could disrespect?
Furious, he shouted to his men, "Beat this ignorant fool to death!"
James smiled calmly and said, "Hold on, let me make a call. The person on the other end will explain."
He took out his phone and called Charles Chen, the manager of Buckingham Palace.
As soon as the call connected, Charles respectfully asked, "Young Master, what can I do for you?"
James asked nonchalantly, "Do you know a Lord Hong in Jinling?"
Charles laughed, "Young Master, I know this Hong Wu. People say he's the underground king of Jinling, but he's just a small fry!"
Charles continued, "This guy knows I'm with the Ye Family and has been trying to bootlick me for ages, begging me to have a meal with him. I've always ignored him. Why, do you know him?"
James replied casually, "Oh, this idiot wants to kill me now."@@novelbin@@
Charles exploded, "Fuck! Is Hong Wu tired of living? How dare he mess with you! Where are you now? I'll come over with my men and cripple him!"
James said, "Talk to him yourself." He handed the phone to Lord Hong, "Here, take it."

Lord Hong was puzzled.
What's going on? This guy doesn't seem to be bluffing.
Could he really have some powerful background?
He didn't look like it. His clothes were ordinary, probably not worth more than 500 yuan in total, and his phone was a cheap model. What kind of connections could he have?
Despite his skepticism, Lord Hong instinctively took the phone and tentatively asked, "Hello, I'm Lord Hong. Who are you? Are you backing this kid?"
Charles Chen's voice thundered through the phone, "Hong Wu! Are you tired of living? How dare you provoke our Young Master? Believe it or not, I can make sure your entire family of twenty-five is wiped out tonight!"
Lord Hong recognized the voice. Wasn't this the Charles Chen he had been trying to bootlick?
He said he had offended their Young Master?
Could it be this young man in front of him?
And he mentioned his entire family of twenty-five. Did he already know everything about him?
Charles Chen was the Ye Family's representative in Jinling! The Ye Family's power was immense. Killing him would be as easy as squashing an ant!
Terrified, Lord Hong immediately begged for mercy, "Mr. Chen, please don't be angry. This is a misunderstanding. I..."
"Shut up!" Charles Chen roared, "Our Young Master's identity is top secret. If you leak it, I'll kill your entire family!"
Lord Hong trembled violently, more than someone with Parkinson's, and stammered, "Mr. Chen, I deserve to die! I'll handle this properly..."
Just one Charles Chen was enough to make him grovel, and the Ye Family in Yanjing was an unattainable existence he could only look up to for life...
But now, he had foolishly offended the Ye Family's Young Master?!
Thinking of this, Lord Hong's gaze fixed on James. His legs went weak, and he knelt before James, trembling, "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry. I didn't know she was your mother-in-law. It was my mistake. Please forgive me!"
Everyone present was stunned, watching Lord Hong kneel and apologize to James, this so-called useless man.
Even Eric Wang, who was a dead dog in front of Lord Hong, was dumbfounded. Who was this young man who could make Lord Hong kneel?
Lord Hong's men were also terrified!
Lord Hong was the underground king of Jinling! What kind of young man could make him kneel?
James didn't want to kill Lord Hong. After all, his men had beaten his mother-in-law, not him.
Honestly, James found it quite satisfying to see his mother-in-law get slapped!
So he said to Lord Hong, "I can forgive you this time, but you must return the money you swindled from my mother-in-law, with interest!"
Lord Hong, feeling as if he had been granted amnesty, was overjoyed. He hadn't expected Young Master Ye to forgive him. He quickly kowtowed and said, "Don't worry, I'll handle it right away!"
He immediately ordered Zhou Bruce, "Hurry up and take care of it! If you dawdle, I'll break your legs!"
Elizabeth Ma was in shock. Was this still her useless son-in-law? Even the infamous Lord Hong had to kneel and kowtow to him?
In an instant, James's image in her eyes grew tall and mysterious.
Eric Wang, who had been slapped multiple times, was also dumbfounded. Wasn't James known as a useless man? How could even Lord Hong be terrified of him?
At this moment, Zhou Bruce, pale-faced, brought a black suitcase to Elizabeth Ma and said in a trembling voice, "Auntie, here is your principal of 1.3 million yuan, plus the promised 200,000 yuan dividend, making a total of 1.5 million yuan. Here is 2 million yuan. The extra 500,000 yuan is our apology. Please accept it..."
Elizabeth Ma was completely stunned!
When did her useless son-in-law become so capable?
Her principal was returned, the promised 200,000 yuan dividend was returned, and they even gave an extra 500,000 yuan as an apology!
What do you think?
