Big Brother, Do You Know Me?
As Wu Chen walked towards the alley entrance, He Ming, whose hair was dyed white and who was kneeling by the wall, and the punk-haired young man kneeling by the wall, both escaped from their phones.
Wu Chen told them to make the calls, and they naturally couldn't wait to do so. He Ming wanted to call his older brother, Yu Hailiang, while Peng Hetou wanted to call his father.
This matter will soon reach Zhao Guai, and then Li Ruotai will find out about such a big thing. Zhao Guai won't dare to hide it from him, and will even urgently call Li Ruotai first.
It would be much better for Wu Chen to explain things to Li Ruotai and proactively admit his mistake than for Li Ruotai to confront him later.
Wu Chen walked more than 10 meters to Hui. He wasn't leaving. If it were just his own business, he would have left directly and didn't care how things escalated.
Tomorrow, someone will naturally come to apologize to him, and in order to quell Wu Chen's anger, someone may even be secretly disposed of.
However, Wu Chen wasn't actually angry; he had already knocked a group of people flying, breaking their arms and legs.
He deliberately stirred up this trouble, and these people, in the end, were all Li Ruotai's men.
Now Li Ruotai listens to Wu Chen very much, and is even a little afraid of Wu Chen.
With Wu Chen giving the order, Li Ruotai could immediately mobilize his underworld connections to get things done.
Therefore, even for Wu Chen, these were all his own people, so it was like the flood had washed away the Dragon King's temple.
Wu Chen knew about all of this in advance, or rather, he had predicted it long ago.
Knowing this beforehand, and with things unfolding exactly as Wu Chen had envisioned, Wu Chen remained completely unfazed.
To be honest, Wu Chen doesn't have a habit of meddling in other people's business.
During his Youth Reincarnation, Wu Chen was somewhat controlling for a period of time, but he later realized it wasn't necessary.
In any densely populated metropolis in the world, countless incidents involving loss of life, crime, and enormous losses occur every day.
There are too many; do we need to manage them all?
Wu Chen felt that he couldn't ignore it, nor could he manage it.
Wu Chen doesn't want to be a city hero. He considers himself an ordinary person. He believes that people should live a more relaxed and happy life, without getting stuck on trivial matters or making life too tiring.
So, although Wu Chen Reset the date July 20th, he could simply watch the news at night to find out where car accidents and production accidents had happened during the day, but he didn't care. He didn't have the ambition. He only cared about this matter in the alley now, entirely because the short-haired young man and the girl in the black dress who were being chased knew him and foresaw the consequences of not caring. She also foresaw how much benefit she would gain if she did care.
Wu Chen walked over to the short-haired young man and the girl in the black dress. The short-haired young man was still sitting against the wall, with the girl in the black dress beside him.
The short-haired young man still looked somewhat dazed, staring blankly as Wu Chen walked over, unable to come to his senses.
He stayed not only because Wu Chen was exceptionally good at fighting, but also because this incident brought about a dramatic turn of events.
As the fight went on, the other party seemed to recognize Wu Chen, calling him "Mr. Wu," and then knelt down to beg for mercy.
Call these people over, and those rich kids who were so arrogant in the bar earlier are now kneeling against the wall.
The short-haired young man realized that this man in a suit, who looked to be about his age, was not only a peerless martial arts master, but also a powerful figure from the East Sea.
Can you stand up?
Wu Chen looked at the short-haired young man and asked, revealing his habitual smile.
The short-haired young woman looked up at Wu Chen blankly. After a moment of reaction, she suddenly made a move.
The sign on the wall behind her said she should stand up. The girl in the black dress helped her up and tried to pull her up with her other hand. Wu Chen reached out his hand to her.
The short-haired young man stretched out his strong hand, and Wu Chen pulled him up, so he stood up.
He had recovered after a while, and although he was in pain all over and had bruises and swelling on his face, he was still able to stand up with difficulty.
Brother, thank you so much! I owe you so much. If it weren't for you, I would have lost my life. I will definitely repay you. Thank you. The young man began to express his gratitude, becoming more and more emotional as he spoke.
It was incredibly dangerous before, the kind that could kill you.
He himself felt it was that dangerous. In reality, Wu Chen knew that even if he didn't care, no one would die. The short-haired young man would be seriously injured and sent to the hospital, but he wouldn't die.
Brother, thank you so much!
The short-haired young man expressed his gratitude.
The girl in the black dress who was helping her also thanked them.
They were all extremely polite and emotional.
This is naturally how one would treat someone who saves their life.
How did you get involved?
Wu Cheng then gestured to the short-haired young man and asked him.
Well, it was in the bar earlier, the short-haired young man said he had nothing to hide from his savior.
He even had the mindset of letting Wu Chen handle things calmly, because he knew that Wu Chen was a big shot in the East Sea and could control this group of people.
The matter is not complicated; Wu Chen was just asking a question he already knew the answer to.
What caused this?
Wu Chen already knew about this couple on July 20th. They drove to the East Sea for fun. The short-haired young man was into cars and had recently heard that the street racers in the East Sea were very skilled, so he drove his modified Land Rover sports car to the East Sea to test his skills against the East Sea racers.
The two of them just arrived in the East Sea today and haven't even made any connections or arranged anything yet. They're coming to the bar tonight to experience East Sea's nightlife.
However, the two then encountered a punk-haired guy at the bar; they were sitting in adjacent booths.
While chatting with his girlfriend, the short-haired young man talked about how amazing his modified cars were, and also explained to her the rumors about the East Sea street racing gangs.
That punk-haired guy was one of the core members of the East Sea street racing gang. He overheard the conversation and struck up a fight. They started arguing about how to modify cars and who was better, with neither willing to back down. The punk-haired guy then bluntly told the short-haired young man to go out and race to see whose car was faster, and whoever chickened out was a dog.
The short-haired young man said he had been drinking, but the punk-haired guy mocked him, and then the two started arguing, slamming their fists on the table and standing up to hurl insults at each other.
This short-haired young man wasn't outnumbered by Peng Hetou; he was trained and wasn't afraid of fighting.
However, the two did not fight in the bar; they were both persuaded to stop.
The girl in the black dress tried to persuade her boyfriend, while the punk-haired guy's friends also pulled him aside and whispered advice, because it was a place where kidnappers were arrested, and Peng Ketou wouldn't dare to fight with anyone there, as it would have a very negative impact on the bar.
They just argued in the bar, but didn't fight.
Just as the short-haired young man and the girl in the black dress finished drinking and were leaving, Peng Hetou men intercept them.
This is the situation: a very common verbal conflict that eventually escalates into a violent one.
In Wu Chen's view, it was clear that the punk-head's side was in the wrong. The real question of who was stronger should have been settled with a fight. Instead, the punk-head's side called in a bunch of thugs to ambush someone, smash their car, and beat them up. This was nothing short of bullying.
Wu Chen had his own judgment, but he didn't say it aloud.
The young man with the long hair explained in detail because he felt he was in the right. His GTR sports car, which he had spent millions modifying, was his prized possession, and now it had been smashed.
He got excited as he spoke, and Lin Yan said he used a pen to draw, taking eight or nine minutes to finish.
After listening, Wu Chen didn't offer any comment, but simply told the short-haired young man that he wouldn't handle it.
Brother, I really have to thank you. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, who knows what might have happened to Qiqi and me today?
The young man was very excited and expressed his gratitude.
Wu Chen smiled, turned his head and looked again at the people kneeling, lying down, and with their arms crossed in the alley, not daring to utter a sound. Then he looked at the short-haired young man and smiled, "Aren't you going to call your second uncle?"
Yes, I have to.
The short-haired young man was reminded. He took out his phone and found that the screen was broken. He was about to turn around and ask his girlfriend for her phone when he suddenly stopped and looked up at Wu Chen.
Brother, do you... know me?
"I asked the short-haired young man."
The short-haired young man stared blankly at Wu Chen. He didn't know Wu Chen, and it was obvious that Wu Chen had saved him in this incident. But Wu Chen had just mentioned his second uncle. The person who would know that he would go to his second uncle if he needed something must be someone who knew him.
I have some friends in Magic City who have heard of your 1000-horsepower modified engine; it's quite famous Magic City. You just called him Qiqi?
Wu Chen glanced at the girl in the black dress as he spoke.
Is her name Guo Qiqi?
When the girl in the black dress saw Wu Chen looking at her, she nodded somewhat blankly. "Your name is Tang Xinbao, right?"
Wu Chen looked at the short-haired young man again, and the short-haired young man nodded blankly.
Tang Xinbao, 21 years old, is a direct descendant of the third generation of the Tang Family in Magic City.
The Tang Family Magic City is a family that is even more powerful than the Gu Family and the Xiang Family. Although it is not the strongest family in Magic City, it is still one of the top families.
In Magic City.
Because of their geographical location, the Gu Family and Xiang Family cannot compete with the Li Family and Die families in terms of power, but if you look at the individual positions of their family members, they are actually slightly inferior.
The Tang Family, judging solely by the position of its elders, is on par with the Li Family and Ding Family; in terms of connections and networks, they are even stronger.
However, the Tang Family is unique compared to other large families like the Li Family and Ding Family, or rather, they are different types of families.
The Tang Family was the first in four generations to join the military, serving as soldiers during the war years more than half a century ago. However, it was the current generation, led by the patriarch of the Tang Family, that made it to the top.
The Tang Family patriarch was not originally from Magic City; his ancestral home was in Gansu Province. He settled in Magic City after the war because of his long-term position Magic City. Tang Xinbao's grandfather, father, and brother were all soldiers, but he was not.
In fact, as a direct descendant of the family, he should have joined the army, but he was very rebellious at the time. He refused to attend military school and did not want to enlist. He wanted to pursue a career in business. Because of this, he had a falling out with his father, and their relationship is not good to this day. This is why he has been going to his second uncle instead of his father for help in recent years.
Guo Qiqi, 21 years old, is the granddaughter of Guo Xingqi, chairman of Magic City Jiuhe Group.
Jiuhe Guo Family can be said to be one of the oldest existing business families in Magic City. They started with the textile business and their history of success can be traced back to a hundred years ago. They have experienced the years of war and decline, but they have also made a comeback. It can be said that they have experienced many ups and downs.
Unlike the Tang Family and Gu Family, the Guo Family is not a powerful or wealthy family. To this day, it remains a purely business family with assets worth tens of billions, which is not considered top-tier in Magic City.
But Guo has been rooted in Magic City for far too many years, weathering countless storms and accumulating a network of connections that most business families can hardly match.
Tang Xinbao and Guo Qiqi can be said to be childhood sweethearts. They have known each other since they were very young, and they officially established a romantic relationship in high school. It was a free-choice relationship.
Sister Guo is very pretty, but not top-tier. According to Wu Chen's scoring criteria, 6 points is considered a beauty in the eyes of ordinary people, while Guo Qiqi's appearance would score 7.5 points. She is the kind of beauty that grows on you, and she has the air of a well-bred lady.
Actually, given Tang Xinbao's qualities, he could have gotten any type of top beauty he wanted, but he just liked Guo Qiqi, and he was quite devoted to her.
In fact, the fact that the two were able to fall in love smoothly without encountering any obstacles is largely due to the influence of their respective families.
Although the Jiuhe and the Guo Family are not powerful or wealthy families, their influence is not much less than that of powerful and wealthy families. They have a very strong foundation in Magic City and can be considered a good match for the Tang Family.
Brother, were you spacing out?
Tang Xinbao paused for a moment, then turned to ask Wu Chen.
Since Wu Chen recognized them and accurately stated their names, he felt that he might also know his savior, or at least have heard of Wu Chen.
Wu Chen smiled and said something.
Tang Xinbao looked at Wu Chen, blinked for a while, then turned to look at her girlfriend Guo Qiqi, giving her an inquiring look.
Guo Qiqi and Tang Xinbao looked at each other blankly, neither of them having heard of Wu Chen.
This is normal. In the third-generation social circles of Magic City, it's normal for some people to have heard of Wu Chen, and it's normal for others not to.
Not everyone cares who Li Ruobin's new boyfriend is, especially since it's only been a short time, just over ten days.
In addition, Tang Xinbao and Guo Qiqi are both young and in college. The circles they are in are different from those of the third generation who have already entered society and begun to participate in family affairs.
Brother, where is your family?
Tang Xinbao then looked at Wu Chen and asked.
He didn't know who Wu Chen was, but he felt that Wu Chen must have a similar family background to his. Otherwise, how could someone from a different circle say something like calling his second uncle? They knew each other too well.
My family runs Ramen Shop in a small county town.
Wu Chen said.
Brother, you're really joking.
Tang Xinbao said directly.
Wu Chen laughed, Tang Xinbao laughed too; he thought Wu Chen was joking.
Wu Chen didn't intend to explain in detail. He knew that what he needed to know would come to him soon enough, so there was no difference between saying more or less now.
Brother, how old are you this year?
Tang Xinbao then asked Wu Chen.
Twenty two.
Wu Chen smiled.
Ah, that guy is right.
Tang Xinbao said that he was just confirming that the two men were about the same age, and it was not easy to judge who was older based on appearance alone.
Brother, who taught you kung fu?
Tang Xinbao spoke again, and it seemed he was talking about a topic that interested him greatly. He became more and more excited as he spoke, and his tone suggested he was eager to ask for advice.
Wow, how did you train? You're so amazing! I've never seen anyone as good as you. I've trained since I was little, but I can't compare to you. How can you be so good?
He's incredibly thick-skinned; even with a bruised and swollen face and body aches, he still has the mind to ask Wu Chen.
Oh, he's self-taught.
Wu Chen laughed.
Is this for real? It's that amazing?
I practiced it myself, could you teach me?
Tang Xinbao was speaking,
The roar of car engines echoed from outside the alley, initially distant but rapidly approaching, and there was more than one car, all of them driving extremely fast.
As they stopped talking, Wu Chen, Tang Xinbao, and Guo Qiqi all turned to look out of the alley.
Wu Chen glanced around and then walked straight out. He quickly reached the entrance of the alley and looked out onto the street.
The cars came from the south; the convoy of five or six cars sped along like they were driving at breakneck speed.
Just a few seconds after Wu Chen reached the alley entrance, they rushed onto the street opposite the alley, slammed on the brakes, stopped the car, and then all opened the car doors.
A dozen or so people got off the bus, including one who got out of a black Mercedes-Benz who was carrying a cane.
He arrived with his men in about ten minutes, because he lived nearby.
Not only did he come, but He Ming's elder brother Yu Hailiang, also came along.
When He Ming called Yu Hailiang was right next to Zhao Guai in a business Clubhouse, where Zhao Guai was a regular customer.
Well, Mr. Wu, it's a misunderstanding, Mr. Wu.
After Zhao Guanzi got out of the car, he immediately saw Wu Chen standing at the entrance of the alley. He shouted urgently as he limped in as quickly as possible.
Wu Chen, Mr. Wu, it's all a misunderstanding.
Hey, do you remember me?
I'm a kidnapper.
Uh, we met at Young Master Li's place that time, Mr. Wu.
Zhao Guai had lost his usual bossy demeanor; he walked and shouted, looking extremely eager to explain.
Meanwhile, Wu Chen's Lamborghini was still parked on the roadside.
Zhuang Xiaodi sat in the passenger seat of the car, looking anxiously out the window.
The phone rang. Zhuang Xiaodie was holding the phone in his hand. As soon as the phone rang, he saw it and answered it immediately.
Hey, sis!
Zhuang Xiaodie said quickly, her eyes glancing out the window.
Is it all done?
Li Ruobing asked.
No, it seems not.
Another large group of people arrived.
Zhuang Xiaodie said nervously.
It's not over yet, more people are coming!
Li Ruobing raised her voice.
