Zhang Shan, holding his phone ready to make a call and intimidate Wang Chao, was taken aback by Wang Chao's words. "Aren't you afraid?"
"It's just the Four Great Kings, what is there to be afraid of? Go ahead, make the call," Wang Chao replied.
Zhang Shan's expression turned extremely ugly upon hearing this.
He was just a small-time hoodlum. How could he possibly know the lofty Four Great Kings? Even if he made the call, there was no way he could bring the Four Great Kings here.
Wang Chao was clearly trying to embarrass him!
"Go ahead and make the call," Wang Chao urged.
"Fine, you punk asking for death, just you wait. I'll make the call now."
Feeling that he couldn't back down, Zhang Shan reluctantly dialed a number and said, "Boss, it's Zhang Shan. Some bastard hit my dad and insulted you. Come to the hospital with your people."
"Yes, the hospital!"
After providing the name of the hospital he was in, Zhang Shan hung up the phone and glared at Wang Chao fiercely. "Bastard, you're done for when my boss arrives!"
"You haven't mentioned who your boss is," Wang Chao smiled.
"Listen carefully, my boss is Cui Hong, one of the Four Great Kings!" Zhang Shan declared.
"Cui Hong?" Wang Chao was momentarily surprised.
"That's right, you've heard of that name, right? How about it? Scared yet?"
Seeing Wang Chao's reaction, Zhang Shan felt a sense of satisfaction, thinking that Wang Chao was afraid. He became even more arrogant and menacing, saying, "You better compensate for my father's medical expenses and lost wages right now."
"And also, you hit my hand just now, so you need to pay me a hundred thousand."
Zhang Min's face immediately darkened upon hearing this. "Zhang Shan, what nonsense are you spouting?"
She could tell that Zhang Shan wasn't simply asking for compensation, but rather trying to extort money.
Wang Chao chuckled upon hearing Zhang Min's words.
Cui Hong had long been dead, and yet Zhang Shan was using Cui Hong's reputation to intimidate people. It seemed that Zhang Shan wasn't doing so well and was quite out of touch with the latest information.
He sized up Zhang Shan and noticed that although he appeared fierce, his eyes were bloodshot, with heavy dark circles. His hair was dusty and had white dandruff flakes.
Zhang Shan, with his hands looking dirty but his fingertips unusually shiny, had a lot of dandruff and dirt under his fingernails. Moreover, there was a strong and unpleasant smell of smoke emanating from him.
Furious at Wang Chao's laughter, Zhang Shan exploded, "What are you laughing at? Do you look down on my boss?"
"If your big brother is Cui Hong, I doubt you can bring him here," Wang Chao remarked.
"What do you mean?"
"Because Cui Hong is already dead."
"Heh, dead? I am his subordinate and I didn't even know, but you know? You bastard, how dare you curse the death of my boss? I'll kill you!"
"Then come and try."
"You!"
Zhang Shan had initially wanted to intimidate Wang Chao, but with Wang Chao's fearless attitude, he couldn't do anything. He was infuriated to the point of almost spitting blood, but he knew he couldn't take on Wang Chao. He restrained his fists and coldly asked, "What's your name, asshole?"
"I'm Wang Chao."
Wang Chao remained calm, sitting in his chair and saying, "Did you call for backup just now? Alright, I'll wait here. I want to see how you bring Cui Hong here."
Zhang Min's eyes flickered slightly when she saw the confrontation between Wang Chao and Zhang Shan. Anxiously, she said, "Mr. Wang, my brother is young and ignorant. Please don't take him seriously."
"Miss Zhang, I'm not angry. Please have a seat as well. Let's enjoy the show," Wang Chao said, pulling Zhang Min to sit down.
"But..." Zhang Min was still uneasy.
Wang Chao was the wealthiest person she had ever met. If Zhang Shan offended him and Wang Chao pursued it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to your brother."
Wang Chao held onto Zhang Min, preventing her from standing up. He then pointed at Zhang Shan and calmly said, "Look at him. He came to visit his father empty-handed. When he arrived in the hospital room, he didn't even spare a glance at your father and immediately asked for money. What kind of decency is that?"
"Furthermore, look at his bloodshot eyes. It's obvious he did not sleep all night."
"He's reeking of smoke, with dirt and dandruff under his fingernails. But his fingertips are shiny from friction. There's no doubt he went gambling."
"As soon as he opened his mouth, he demanded an exact amount of 350,000. I bet he lost 350,000 last night and now owes a gambling debt. He wants to extort money from me."
Zhang Shan's expression drastically changed as he looked at Wang Chao with a shocked look. "How did you know that I went..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he quickly shut up.
However, his expression and reaction had already told Wang Chao that this guy indeed owed a gambling debt!
"What?"
Zhang Min's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and she immediately glared at Zhang Shan. "Zhang Shan, did you really go gambling and owe money?"
Zhang Shan hurriedly said, "No! Sister, it's all this Wang Chao talking nonsense. I was at the internet cafe playing games all night. I did not play any cards or owe any money."
"Did I mention playing cards just now?" Wang Chao remarked.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shan's expression drastically changed, and he angrily shouted, "Shut the fuck up!"
Angry and standing up, Zhang Min clenched her teeth and scolded, "Zhang Shan, what did you promise me before? You uttered you would never gamble again. How could you go back on your word like this?"
"Sis, I really did not go to gamble or owe any money. It's all Wang Chao talking nonsense." Zhang Shan hastily explained.
"You... you infuriate me!"
Zhang Min was furious, her face red and breathing heavily. She pointed at the door and shouted, "I do not desire to see you again! Get out! Get far away from me!"
"I can not leave yet, sis. I haven't helped Dad get the compensation. How can I leave like this?"
Zhang Shan stubbornly refused to leave, turning his head to look at Wang Chao and angrily said, "You bastard! You hit my father, and now you not only refuse to compensate, but you also slander me. You better give me 500,000 yuan right now, or I'll really take action!"
After speaking, he even took out a shiny dagger from his waist and pointed it at Wang Chao with a fierce and sinister expression.
"Zhang Shan, what are you trying to do? Put the dagger away!" Zhang Min's expression changed drastically, and she tried to snatch the dagger away.
Zhang Shan sneered, evading Zhang Min's attempt, and at the same time, he pushed her behind him. Then, he pointed the dagger at Wang Chao and menacingly said, "Wang Chao, you pushed me to this point. Give me the money now!"
Wang Chao smiled wryly, "It seems I hit the nail on the head. You are so desperate for money, could it be that you borrowed from loan sharks and someone is after you for repayment, right?"
Zhang Shan's expression suddenly changed, thinking, How does he know about my situation?
Being exposed, he became even more furious and shouted, "You bastard! You are talking nonsense. I'll kill you!"
After saying that, he raised the dagger and immediately lunged at Wang Chao.
