"Not hehe~"
Several people immediately drooped, and just as they were about to scram, Xu Yi suddenly spoke.
"Uncle Li, don't be so harsh on them either. Sure, they smashed my stall and looked down on me for being an orphan. They even looked down on the medal my father left me.
But I still think it's better to treat people with courtesy."

The few of them instantly broke into a cold sweat. "Brother, don't do this! You don't need to plead for us. Just let us obediently get lost..."
Li Wen's gaze was vicious, and he looked as if he wanted to devour them.
Then Li Wen passed judgment on them.
"Two days. Move out. Leave Gang City..."
"Wh... why?" The supermarket's former owner was utterly dumbfounded.
"Because in two days, you won't be able to survive in Gang City anymore. If you don't believe me... you can try."
"And while you're at it, cough up every cent you've made from supermarket kickbacks over the years. If you're short even one cent, I'll make sure you can't stay here for a single day."
Gulp~
The few of them all swallowed, their faces filled with fear.
Yet not one of them doubted him.
Furun Group really did have that kind of power.
"Manager Li, please don't be angry. We'll pay it right away."
But when they checked their account balances, they were dumbfounded. They didn't even have a hundred thousand.
They had gotten carried away over the past few years, investing all their money and buying houses.
Seeing their reactions, Li Wen chuckled lightly, as if he had expected this all along.
Then he waved his hand, and the lawyer behind him immediately took out a document.
"I'll give you a chance. Sign this, serve six months in prison, and I'll let you keep your money."
The owner was instantly delighted. Six months in prison in exchange for several million.
Manager Li really was a great philanthropist! Were rich people all this foolish?
The owner immediately waved his hand grandly and signed his name with a flourish.
Six months from now, I'll still be a fine man.
At that moment, the child he was most proud of called him. "Dad, you know that all my hard work over the years has been for the central government civil service exam. I'm only one step away now.
They're going to investigate our family's past three generations. There's nothing wrong with our family, right?"
The supermarket owner smiled confidently. "Haha~ Don't worry, son. It's fine. Our family has been law-abiding citizens for three generations!"
Wait...
Suddenly, he froze and stood there blankly for a long while.
I don't seem to be a law-abiding citizen anymore...
He cast an incredulous look at Li Wen. "Manager Li, you set me up?"
Li Wen's smile remained gentle, but in the owner's eyes, it was ice-cold. "Your son's future is over. You chose this yourself~"
"You bastard, you set me up!!"
The supermarket owner descended into madness. His son was finished.
If his son found out, wouldn't he hate him for the rest of his life?
"Li Wen! Manager Li... Manager Li, I really know I was wrong. I don't want the money anymore. Please let me off. I don't want to go to prison. My child is about to make it!"
Li Wen shook his head coldly. "Your child is a child, but the children at this school aren't?
"The supermarket was full of near-expiry and expired products. You sold a cup of instant noodles for ten yuan. When you were sucking the blood of those children, did you ever think that they were still just children?"
"I really know I was wrong... Please let me off this once."
"Drag him out! Send him to the police station to turn himself in."
At Li Wen's command, two burly men immediately grabbed him and marched him outside.
"Hey, Dad, why aren't you saying anything? What happened?"
"Son, I'm sorry. Dad ruined things for you. You're studying for your graduate entrance exam at Huaqing University, right? Never come back to Gang City. We can't beat Furun Group."
Sun Xiang was stunned on the other end of the phone. His mind raced, and he quickly figured out what had happened.
"Vice President, the research data this time is the same as the previous two times. The facts prove that you were right.
"The investors want to know whether the product can enter production."
Sun Xiang's gaze turned cold. "Put everything on hold for now. I want you to investigate a company for me."
"Which one?"
"Furun Group. Pay particular attention to its competitors and its history of misconduct. Find out everything."
After his assistant left, Sun Xiang made another call.
"President, I agree to what you asked me to do."
The delighted voice on the other end said, "You've finally come around?"
"But I want to borrow the authority in your hands. I want to indulge myself a little."
"No problem."
After hanging up, killing intent burst from Sun Xiang's eyes. "Furun Group! Have you ever experienced the feeling of a skyscraper collapsing overnight?"
Xu Yi watched from behind and sighed repeatedly.
My uncle really is... ruthless.
I underestimated him before.
As the supermarket owner was dragged away, he stared fixedly at Xu Yi.
Damn it, why the hell were you pretending to be poor?
If you had connections, you should've said so earlier! I would've worshiped you like an ancestor.
You've ruined me~
Li Wen patted Xu Yi's shoulder forcefully. "Good lad... No one will bully you again."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp scream came from in front of the cafeteria.
"Xu Yi!!"
"Why didn't you reply when I messaged you?"
Everyone looked at the pretty girl ahead, then revealed knowing smiles.
"Young man, you're pretty lucky with women. A girl is chasing you and demanding that you reply to her messages."
"Not bad... When I was young, I also chased girls and begged them to reply to my messages."
Li Wen's face lit up with an auntie-like smile. "Is this my future nephew-in-law?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ying shouted again, "What right do you have not to reply to my messages?"
Everyone: "???"
Li Wen's expression turned cold. "Xiao Yi, what's going on?"
Xu Yi lowered his head in feigned dejection. "She looked down on me for being useless and having no future, so she broke up with me."
Good grief, he had one uncle who was a bureau chief and another who was a chairman.
And she called that useless?
The jobs other people could secure with a single word were the dreams you had pursued through years of hard study.
This girl... her ambitions were truly huge.
Before anyone could comfort him, Xu Ying had already walked up to Xu Yi, with another young man beside her.
"Xu Yi, let me introduce you. This is my pursuer, Chen Wei. His family works at the Education Bureau.
"I heard they have a very close relationship with the bureau chief."
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~
Everyone's eyes turned toward the bureau chief in unison, their expressions full of anticipation.
Damn it! Why am I being dragged into this again?!
Chen Wei smiled, confidence in his eyes, but what he said was shocking.
"Hello, former brother-in-law. I'm Xu Ying's pursuer. I heard you sell instant noodles in the cafeteria. I'll come by often in the future and patronize your business."
"No need. I plan to stop selling them starting today."
"You got targeted, right? I've heard about your situation. All I can say is that you're really unlucky, brother.
"Unlike me... If I send a message, my parents transfer five-figure pocket money into my account."
Everyone: "..."
Xu Yi raised his head and looked at him seriously. Word by word, he asked, "Then your parents must have embezzled quite a lot, huh?"

"Does your family have a lot of green tea?"
"How do you kno..."
A trace of panic appeared in Chen Wei's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
"How could that be? My parents have side jobs."
Yu Shu's gaze suddenly turned cold. He was already planning to thoroughly investigate the bureau.
These parasites deserve to be dragged out and fed seaweed-and-egg-drop soup. No vegetables in that soup...
"We're getting off topic. Former brother-in-law, I came here because I have something to ask you."
"What?"
Chen Wei gently took Xu Ying's hand, his expression indulgent. "I wanted to ask you, what are her strengths?"
"Strengths...?"
Xu Yi looked at her disdainfully.
"Does being fond of throwing herself at men count?"
Negative Emotion Points +50
"Explain yourself. What do you mean?"
"Darling, don't listen to her nonsense."
"Exactly what it sounds like. She was the one who pursued me, and after we started dating, she was always lusting after my body."
"Shameless!"
"We men are all fragrant, soft little cats. How could filthy hands like hers be allowed to touch us?"
