4151 This was not even the most shameless one.
“Speak. Just now, Ling Chuxi openly violated the ban and ou beat up the young master of the Zeng family and the others. If you dare to lie, I’ll take you to the Arbitration Council as well. ” Zeng Zhengping threatened.
Ling Yichen almost spat out the glass of water in her hand. She had seen a lot of biased people, but this was the first time she had met someone who was so biased. This Zeng Zhengping was a little too reckless.
On the other hand, Ling Chuxi’s face was calm. There were many shameless people in the world and this was not even the most shameless one.
There were even more onlookers now, and the crowd was so tight that not even a drop of water could pass through. When they heard Zeng Zhengping’s words, everyone shook their heads.
It seemed that the Ling family was going to suffer this time.
Although they were not clear about what was going on and did not know who was right or wrong, they were disgusted by Zeng Zhengping’s unscrupulous favoritism. They also felt some sympathy for Ling Chuxi and the others.
People always sympathized with the weak, and so did the Tianyu realm.
“This is actually a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding …” The shopkeeper was sweating profusely under Zeng Zhengping’s gaze. He didn’t know how to start.
Zeng Zhengping’s meaning was clear. He had come today to stand up for Zeng fanjian. If he dared to ruin things, he would suffer. However, if he had to go against his conscience and frame the Ling family, he would feel uneasy.
“Cut the crap and speak quickly.” Zeng Zhengping shouted impatiently.
“It’s like this. The Ling family came first and stayed in this courtyard. Later, young master Zeng and the others came and also took a fancy to this courtyard. They wanted young master Ling and the others to give it up, but young master Ling refused. There was a small dispute between the two sides, so young master Zeng took out 100000 five-colored spirit stones. After that, they entered the courtyard to discuss it. Because they had set up a domain, I don’t know what happened later.” After thinking for a long time, the shopkeeper decided to tell the truth.
Ling Chuxi looked at the shopkeeper and felt that he had a new level of respect for her. Business people were mostly smooth and slick people. The innkeeper had kindly reminded them before, and she already felt that this innkeeper was not bad. He didn’t expect the shopkeeper to resist the pressure and not vouch for Zeng Zhengping. This made Ling Chuxi have a good impression of him.
Hearing the shopkeeper’s words, the surrounding crowd began to whisper to each other.
Although the innkeeper also knew that what happened after was ominous, they could roughly guess what happened. It was obvious that the wound on Zeng fanjian’s face was not caused by him. It was definitely the doing of Ling Chuxi and the others. However, since they had moved in first, Zeng fanjian had no reason to fight for it.
Junlai’s courtyard only cost a few hundred five-colored spirit stones a day, but Zeng fanjian had offered 100000 five-colored spirit stones. It was obvious that this was not a serious discussion. He was clearly bullying others with an advantage. His words were probably not pleasant to hear. They had seen the hedonistic behavior of the sons of these aristocratic families many times, and they could easily guess the situation at that time.
After that, the matter became simple. The Ling family definitely couldn’t take this lying down, so they pretended to discuss it and tricked them into the courtyard to beat them up.
Although they already knew the truth of the matter, the onlookers did not have the slightest ill will towards Ling Chuxi and the others. Instead, they were a little impressed. People like Zeng fanjian, who used their power to bully others, deserved a beating. This was only in the city amongst the clouds. If they were in another place, they would have deserved to be killed.
