"I understand," Ling Ao laughed. "Leng Xuan, I have to thank you for this."
"Uncle Ling is no outsider to , there’s no need for thanks, it’s too polite," Leng Xuan replied.
"All right then, I’ll go and let the Bei Family know, so I won’t disturb you further."
After hanging up the phone, Leng Xuan imdiately dialed Hu Zhong’s number, and upon hearing the greeting from the other end, he said, "Matters with the Bei Family end here."
"I know what to do, Young Master Leng," Hu Zhong didn’t ask for the reasons and readily agreed.
Leng Xuan was extrely satisfied with Hu Zhong’s attitude towards handling affairs and couldn’t help but say, "Butler Hu, thanks for your trouble this ti."
Hu Zhong laughed and said, "Young Master is too courteous. I’m the steward for Elder Liu, just call Butler Hu. The title of uncle is more than I can take on."
Leng Xuan didn’t insist and smiled back, "Then, thank you, Butler Hu."
While Leng Xuan was making the call, Ling Ao was also speaking to Bei Song on the phone. All that could be heard was Bei Song asking anxiously, "Brother Ling, do you know if Young Master Leng has agreed?"
Ling Ao said, "Younger Brother Bei, you should be aware that as Elder Liu’s adopted grandson and a future part of the Liu Corporation, Leng Xuan doesn’t care about this bit of money."
Bei Song naturally understood; he knew that ten billion was hard to catch the other’s eye. But his goal wasn’t to use the ten billion to make Leng Xuan give up targeting the Bei Family. The ten billion was rely a feeler, just as long as Leng Xuan was willing to accept an apology, everything else was negotiable. After all, any problem that money could solve wasn’t a big problem, it was just a question of how much. Compared to the fate of the Bei Family, it was trivial.
Therefore, Bei Song hurriedly said, "Brother Ling, I know ten billion is not much, rest assured, as long as Young Master Leng nas his price, I won’t hesitate."
"That won’t be necessary."
Bei Song exclaid in surprise, "Why not? Does Young Master Leng not want money?"
Ling Ao laughed and said, "Originally, Leng Xuan wasn’t planning to let your Bei Family off easily, but after all, I have an old friendship with you and naturally couldn’t bear to see you like this. So, I spoke nicely to him on your behalf, and fortunately, this face of mine still holds so sway, he said since your Bei Family is sincerely admitting fault, this ti he’ll let it slide for my sake, and not trouble your Bei Family further. However, he hopes that you won’t go looking for trouble with him in the future, otherwise, even my intervention would be futile."
"No problem at all," Bei Song said eagerly. "I will discipline Bei Yin and her siblings properly, ensuring they cause no more trouble. Brother Ling, thank you so much for this, I’ll rember this favor."
"Ha-ha! Younger Brother Bei, you’re too kind," Ling Ao laughed. "You must have many things to take care of, so I won’t bother you any longer. Co visit when you have ti; I’ll host you properly."
By the ti school was over in the afternoon, Leng Xuan received a call from Ling Ao, telling him that all those properties had been completely transferred to his na. He couldn’t help but muse to himself that Bei Song was rather swift in action; perhaps he was afraid of Leng Xuan changing his mind.
Through Ling Ao, Leng Xuan also learned which properties were now in his na. As for the bars and bathhouses, he wasn’t interested, and managing such businesses required attention from both the lawful and lawless circles—too much trouble. So he asked Ling Ao to help sell them off.
Regarding the leisure center, Leng Xuan learned from Ling Ao that unsavory dealings were going on there, but he didn’t plan to sell it. Firstly, the leisure center was in an excellent location, at the city center, near the pedestrian street, with a heavy flow of people around it. Secondly, he planned to dispel everyone from the leisure center and open another health and relaxation center in its place, starting his first chain store.
