Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Cut from the Same Cloth
The next moment, the six experts by Jiang Mingfeng’s side rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, the six elite bodyguards had taken down everyone around Chen Wenxiong.
Witnessing this, Chen Wenxiong was horrified.
Jiang Mingfeng slowly walked forward and asked again in a cold voice,
"Chen Wenxiong, hand over the person who hurt my son right now, or you will face the consequences!"
However, Chen Wenxiong gritted his teeth and shook his head.
"Jiang Mingfeng! If you think I’m handing anyone over, you’re dreaming!"
Seeing Chen Wenxiong’s defiance, Jiang Mingfeng gave a direct order.
"Men, teach him a harsh lesson!"
The experts by his side immediately revealed cruel smiles and walked toward Chen Wenxiong.
But just at this critical moment, Ouyang Tianqi arrived in the nick of time.
"Mr. Jiang, please show me some respect and spare Mr. Chen!" Ouyang Tianqi said in a low voice.
However, Jiang Mingfeng’s face was full of disdain.
"Mr. Ouyang, you no longer hold the position you once did. I suggest you stay out of this!"
The ice-cold words instantly ignited a flicker of anger in Ouyang Tianqi’s heart.
Although he had retired from his post and had previously served as an official in the Provincial Government for a few years, his influence had waned since he left office.
With the Jiang Family at their zenith in the Provincial City, Jiang Mingfeng truly had no need to pay Ouyang Tianqi any mind.
Ouyang Tianqi was helpless, even feeling awkward just standing there.
Just then, Xu Zhigang also arrived!
「Meanwhile, at the Chen Family Villa」
Qin Tuo was still playfully teasing Chen Man Ni.
Suddenly, a call came from Long Wu.
"Celestial King, something’s happened..."
Qin Tuo’s heart immediately sank, knowing it must be something serious.
Long Wu quickly added,
"Celestial King, there’s major trouble at the Lige Hotel! My men saw the cars of Chen Wenxiong, Ouyang Tianqi, and even Xu Shigang all arrive!"
Hearing this, Qin Tuo realized something was definitely wrong.
"Long Wu, gather your men and wait there. I’m on my way!"
"Understood, Celestial King."
After hanging up, as Qin Tuo was about to leave, Chen Man Ni asked with concern,
"Qin Tuo, what’s wrong?"
Qin Tuo shook his head, comforting Chen Man Ni.
"Manni, don’t worry. I’ll be back soon!"
After reassuring Chen Man Ni, Qin Tuo hurriedly left.
「Back at the Lige Hotel」
The atmosphere was incredibly tense.
Jiang Mingfeng never expected that Xu Zhigang would show up.
Of course, Jiang Mingfeng wasn’t afraid of Xu Zhigang’s position as mayor; it was because they had been friends for many years.
Moreover, Jiang Mingfeng knew that Xu Zhigang had always been a man of uncompromising principle. For someone like him to step forward and plead for another person was quite surprising to Jiang Mingfeng.
Xu Zhigang said with a frown,
"Jiang Mingfeng, don’t act recklessly. This is Ming City, not the Provincial City."
Jiang Mingfeng sneered and said,
"Ming City, so what? I can still come and go as I please!"
This arrogant display made everyone present clench their teeth in hatred, but they were all powerless.
Xu Zhigang tried again, this time with a threatening tone,
"I’m advising you not to escalate this. Otherwise, if you push me too far, I’ll have you arrested."
Jiang Mingfeng’s eyes widened, and then he let out a disdainful laugh.
"Oh, is that so? In that case, I’ll just sit here and wait. Let’s see if you can have me arrested."
This infuriated Xu Zhigang. He never imagined Jiang Mingfeng would be so disrespectful.
But Jiang Mingfeng threatened in a low, somber tone,
"Xu Zhigang, I advise you to mind your own business. Otherwise, I won’t care about our years of friendship, and you won’t be able to hold onto your official post!"
As these words fell, a look of apprehension appeared in Xu Zhigang’s eyes.
He knew Jiang Mingfeng wasn’t just bluffing.
With the Jiang Family’s terrifying power, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to ruin his career.
Seeing that Xu Zhigang had indeed fallen silent, Jiang Mingfeng turned his gaze back to Chen Wenxiong.
"Chen Wenxiong, I’ll give you one more chance. Hand over the culprit who hurt my son, and then send your daughter to the Provincial City to accompany my son while he recovers!"
Chen Wenxiong was instantly enraged, saying furiously,
"Jiang Mingfeng, stop your delusional daydreaming! I won’t agree to a single one of your conditions."
"Chen Wenxiong, are you sure you want to oppose me?"
Jiang Mingfeng slowly sat down, his eyes dark and gloomy.
But Chen Wenxiong said with a resolute tone,
"You can give up on that idea. I, Chen Wenxiong, am telling you here and now, I will never let you have your way!"
The words had barely left his mouth when Jiang Mingfeng slammed his palm down, shattering the table in front of him.
Everyone’s heart leaped into their throats.
No one had expected that Jiang Mingfeng himself was a Martial Arts master.
Jiang Mingfeng had deliberately shown off his skill, stunning everyone present.
He smiled smugly and said slowly,
"Since you’re so ungrateful, I’ll just have to grant your death wish!"
As he finished speaking, he ordered his experts to give Chen Wenxiong a brutal beating.
Chen Wenxiong immediately grew tense and adopted a defensive stance.
But he also knew that with his own strength, he stood no chance against the six masters by Jiang Mingfeng’s side.
The image of these six men effortlessly taking down dozens of his bodyguards was still fresh in his mind...
Chen Wenxiong slowly retreated as the six masters closed in on him one by one.
Just as the situation reached its breaking point, Qin Tuo’s voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Stop right there!"
Qin Tuo was seen walking straight into the hotel with Long Wu.
Chen Wenxiong’s face fell. He frowned and said hastily,
"Qin Tuo, get out of here, quickly! With your current abilities, you’re no match for the Jiang Family!"
But Jiang Mingfeng’s eyes lit up, and a triumphant smile spread across his face.
He knew the real culprit had finally appeared.
Qin Tuo slowly shook his head and said,
"Mr. Chen, don’t worry. As long as I’m here, nothing will happen."
For some reason, whenever Chen Wenxiong saw Qin Tuo with this demeanor, he felt a profound sense of security and peace.
Jiang Mingfeng stood up, carefully sizing up Qin Tuo from head to toe, and asked coldly,
"So you’re the kid who stepped on and broke my son’s arm?"
Qin Tuo didn’t deny it, nodding directly.
"That’s right. Your son was acting perversely, doing things worse than an animal. If Manny hadn’t stopped me, your son would be a corpse right now!"
Jiang Mingfeng was instantly enraged. He couldn’t believe a young man dared to speak to him in such a tone.
"Kid, you’re courting death!"
However, Qin Tuo just shook his head disdainfully.
"Heh, I should have known. You two, father and son, are cut from the same cloth—both so arrogant and conceited!"
At this, Jiang Mingfeng could no longer hold back.
With a look, he signaled one of his bodyguards, who immediately stepped forward slowly, ready to teach Qin Tuo a lesson.
