308: Chapter 309: Admitted Defeat

At that mont, Tian Huayuan felt a chill run down his spine.

He was just a minor deputy head, while the other party was the deputy chief of the bureau, and from Bureau Chief Sun’s attitude, it was clear he was protecting Song Xiaodong.

There was no way he could challenge Bureau Chief Sun.

Chu Kewei and the other three, though they hadn’t heard clearly what was said on the phone, already sensed that sothing was amiss, each of them showing an ugly expression.

After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Tian Huayuan looked at Song Xiaodong and stamred, “This… this… Mr.

Song, it seems there has been so misunderstanding, definitely so misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding?” Song Xiaodong squinted his eyes looking at Tian Huayuan.

“Absolutely, can we just let this matter go?”

“Okay,” Song Xiaodong grinned, then glanced over at Chu Kewei and the others before pulling the door open and walking out.

Chu Kewei and Tian Hao’s father both had an ominous feeling.

Tian Hao’s father quickly whispered, “Does Bureau Chief Sun have so connection with this young man?”

Tian Huayuan said, “He must, Bureau Chief Sun wouldn’t stand up for soone lightly, and given his direct words, obviously this young man… has significant backing.”

“What should we do?” Everyone looked at each other, now all sowhat at a loss.

However, after a mont’s hesitation, they hurriedly followed out, feeling that letting Song Xiaodong go now would certainly lead to trouble.

“Uncle Zhao, sorry to bother you to co here,” Shen Yue was speaking to a middle-aged man in the corridor, and the man was none other than Zhao Yongbo, the Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office.

Zhao Yongbo smiled and said, “No bother at all, just a small matter.

You haven’t been mistreated, have you?”

Upon seeing Song Xiaodong co out, Shen Yue imdiately went up to him, grabbed his hands, and looked him over, saying, “Big Brother Song, are you okay?”

Song Xiaodong squeezed Shen Yue’s hand, smiling as he said, “How could I be in trouble?”

“Yes, Big Brother Song certainly wouldn’t be in trouble,” Shen Yue imdiately showed a sweet smile.

Zhao Yongbo ca forward, extending his hand, and said, “Hello, Mr.

Song, I am Zhao Yongbo, the Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office.

It’s a pleasure to et you.”

Song Xiaodong shook hands with Zhao Yongbo, saying with a smile, “To think I’ve had to trouble Director Zhao, I’m really sorry.”

Zhao Yongbo hurriedly said, “Mr.

Song, you’re being too polite.

We will definitely handle this matter well and give you a proper resolution.”

Although Zhao Yongbo had respect for a doctor, he wouldn’t usually be so courteous.

Shen Dongyang had directly ordered him to handle this, which initially puzzled him.

But now, seeing how intimate Shen Yue and Song Xiaodong were, he understood in an instant.

Song Xiaodong was likely to beco Shen Dongyang’s future son-in-law, which ant he could not afford to be anything but courteous.

As the two chatted, everyone else was stunned.

To Song Xiaodong, Zhao Yongbo might not be a significant figure, but in the eyes of the others, he was a very important person.

His warmth towards Song Xiaodong was enough to illustrate Song Xiaodong’s status and standing.

Especially for Tian Huayuan and his companions, who now felt a cold dread on their backs.

They had truly stirred up a huge ss this ti.

Chu Kewei’s father was the first to react.

Being a shrewd man, he knew that if the situation wasn’t resolved now, his company would likely be unable to continue operating here, and the loss would be imasurable.

So, gritting his teeth, he hurried over, first greeting Zhao Yongbo, saying, “Director Zhao, I’m Chu Tiansheng, we’ve dined together before.”

“Is that so?

I don’t rember,” Zhao Yongbo said coldly.

Chu Tiansheng inwardly cursed his luck; those words made it clear that he was not going to be given any face.

He could only offer a dry laugh and then said to Song Xiaodong, “Mr.

Song, it’s all because of my unworthy son who offended you.

Let

apologize on his behalf first.

I’m willing to pay twenty million to treat his arm.

Please, I ask you to lift your noble hand and treat him.”

Zhao Yongbo was shocked.

Twenty million just to treat an arm—Song Xiaodong was really opening his mouth wide!

But he soon understood the underlying issue; Chu Tiansheng was using the twenty million to buy peace of mind, so he remained silent and watched from the sidelines.

Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, “Sigh, initially I only wanted ten million, but you insisted on making things complicated.

Since you’ve said this, if I don’t treat him, it would seem I’m not keeping my word.

Co here.”

Chu Tiansheng quickly said, “Thank you, Mr.

Song, thank you, Mr.

Song.”

“Dad, are you crazy?

Twenty million—why doesn’t he just rob us?” Chu Kewei exclaid, eyes wide open.

He knew his family’s financial situation; it was one thing to spend a few hundred thousand occasionally, but pulling out twenty million all at once would spell big trouble for the company’s operations.

“Scoundrel!” Chu Tiansheng slapped his son hard across the face, furiously saying, “Mr.

Song treating you is already a huge favor.

If you keep whining, believe it or not, I will lock you up at ho and never let you out again?”

Chu Kewei still feared his father deeply.

Although he didn’t understand why his father was acting this way, he had no choice but to stiffen his neck and face Song Xiaodong.

Looking at Chu Kewei, Song Xiaodong said indifferently, “I’ve said that everyone must be responsible for their actions.

This ti, you’re only losing so money, but if there’s a next ti, you might lose your life.”

With that, he grabbed Chu Kewei’s arms, one pull and a push, and Chu Kewei instantly scread in pain, but his arm was quickly back to normal.

Tian Hao’s father, now understanding Chu Tiansheng’s intent, also hurriedly brought Tian Hao over for treatnt.

After treating both of them, Shen Yue imdiately said, “Uncle Zhao, you should go back first, I still have two classmates here.”

Zhao Yongbo imdiately understood and replied, “Then I’ll leave first.”

At that mont, Tian Huayuan quickly released Liu Feiyan and Li Yuting, and the two frightened girls hurriedly followed behind Song Xiaodong as they left the police station.

“Damn it, this bastard, I’ll kill him sooner or later!” Chu Kewei said bitterly, clenching his fists.

“Slap!” Chu Tiansheng raised his hand and slapped his son again, furiously saying, “Have you not learned your lesson?

The other party even had the Municipal Party Committee Office Director co forward for him, and you still talk about killing him?

You really think you can do that?”

Covering his face, Chu Kewei now understood who Zhao Yongbo was and was shocked, stamring without being able to speak.

“Old Chu, twenty million—I’ll have to sell assets to gather that much,” Tian Hao’s father said with a distressed expression.

“Exactly, I will have to do the sa,” Chu Tiansheng said with a pained look on his face.

They really dared not withhold the money—at least they could keep their companies afloat, but the consequences of not paying at all would be much more severe.
