Returning From Level 900-Chapter 309 - 309 It’s Annoying To Be Too Polite

309 It’s Annoying To Be Too Polite

When he saw the room was full of big shots, half of Huang Baobao’s body went numb.

He knew that the people sitting there had the power to shake the world with a simple word or a document.

What would the behemoth formed by ten of the largest consortia look like? 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

He was confident they would be able to surface and greet the world soon.

Huang Baobao and He Jiong gulped.

He Jiong opened his mouth to explain something to the people in the meeting room.

He did not make a sound.

A hand rose from the corner at the end of the conference room and waved at the two. “Here.”

Chen Hansheng, sitting at the head of the conference room, looked at the corner in the distance and turned back to ask the two of them, “You’re Huang Baobao from the 16th Consortium?”

Huang Baobao quickly nodded.

Even before the world changed, the person in front of him was a source of inspiration for him.

“You’re quite capable!” Chen Hansheng smiled noncommittally, then raised his chin and gestured. “Go on.”

Huang Baobao thanked him repeatedly and moved in slowly.

He Jiong stood at the door and bowed to Chen Hansheng. “Long time no see. You’ve worked hard.”

Chen Hansheng did not give him a good look and said coldly, “I’m not tired; you’re tired! You even dare to use Wang Wen’s name for favors now!”

He Jiong had already sobered up in the car.

Chen Hansheng’s words made him break out in a cold sweat.

The remaining tipsy sensation vanished in an instant.

He said somberly, “I don’t dare to do that! This time, I drank too much and lost my sense of propriety. I promise there won’t be a next time!

Huang Baobao was in the corner.

Seeing all that...

His gratitude for He Jiong deepened.

He knew how much trouble he had caused the other man.

He also knew how many favors the other party man had to lose to bring him there.

He clenched his fists tightly and engraved his gratitude in his heart. There was still a long way to go, and he would definitely repay his debt when he got out.

Wang Wen looked at his excited expression.

He smiled.

“Do you know why your dad was locked up?” he asked casually.

Huang Baobao nodded and said, “I know! He’s helping the six consortiums by providing supplies.”

Wang Wen shook his head and said, “No, he’s not in the right mind! I’m curious about how a big boss like your father usually does his business. Doesn’t he need to use his brain?”

Seeing Huang Baobao’s tightly clenched fists, Wang Wen smiled and said, “Don’t act rashly. I just want to ask, no matter what benefits the six consortiums promised, is it worth it to gamble with one’s life? Even if there were benefits, would it help the 16th Consortium? The total value of our academy and the Boai Group is only so much. Even if the six consortiums split it among themselves, there won’t be much left. How can they leave the majority to the second-rated teams?”

Huang Baobao fell into deep thought.

Wang Wen did not waste any more time. He said, “Alright, it seems like it’s not suitable for your father to continue his business. I don’t care about your family’s property. From now on, the 16th Consortium has nothing to do with you. Take your father home and live a good life. If you don’t have money, come to the academy. Food and accommodation will be provided.” fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Huang Baobao was shocked. “I can take my dad away! I don’t have to pay a cent?”

“How much were you planning to pay?” Wang Wen asked with a smile.

Huang Baobao hesitated. “It depends on how much you want. I’m already mentally prepared to go bankrupt.”

Wang Wen chuckled and said, “Forget it. Since He Jiong has already brought you here, it’s too petty of me to haggle over it. I’ve already told him your father will be waiting for you downstairs. He’s been starving for a few days. Get him to eat.”

As he finished speaking...

He stood up and said, “We have many people in prison. We will do it this way in the future. Only our own people will have special privileges. If the outsiders have no way of asking to take them back, then let them die in prison. In any case, they will no longer have a share in the consortiums.”

He said to Huang Baobao, “You can release this information as you wish. It’s up to you to do what you want. I won’t care.”

Finally…

He said to He Jing, who was panicking at the door, “Did you hear that, He Jiong? You’ve already used up your special privileges. Next time, don’t blame me for not helping you if you help someone plead for mercy.”

He Jiong knelt and said, “Yes, yes, Boss, don’t worry. There won’t be a next time! This is already enough for me to show off!”

“Take them and leave.” Wang Wen waved his hand and sat down again. “Remember not to enter the tower. Wait for my notice.”

He Jiong left with Huang Baobao, who seemed deep in thought.

The meeting room’s door was closed.

Chen Hansheng laughed. “Teacher Wang, you’re too good. Now, the people outside can’t be bothered to go against the Emperor. They’ll be thinking about how to get favors first.”

“As long as there’s something to do, there’s something to be gained. The people aren’t that free; who cares who’s in charge?” Wang Wen waved his hand and released a round ball the size of a sofa, which floated above the conference table.

The ball was like an eye.

The surface reflected the scene downstairs.

That was his latest technique.

He could observe the scene within a certain range.

When Huang Baobao returned to the ground floor and saw his father, he hugged him excitedly.

He Jing intended to leave once the matter was resolved.

He Jiong was dragged outside by Huang Baobao. He introduced the man to his father as he walked, saying, “It was He Jiong who helped me get in touch with him. We could not bail you out without him, even if we wanted to. The higher-ups have already decided to let you die in prison!”

His father’s face was haggard, and his hair was messy and white.

Hearing that, he held He Jiong’s hand and repeatedly thanked him.

He sighed as he looked at Huang Baobao. “It is all my fault for being so muddle headed and putting our family in this situation. I remember I have an old house in my hometown that does not bear my name. We may relocate there in the future. The circumstances are difficult, but you and your mother can handle them. It will be difficult for you.”

Huang Baobao said, “Dad, we did not spend a single cent to save you.”

Father Huang’s body trembled. “How is that possible?”

“It’s true!” Huang Baobao supported his weak father and patiently explained, “They only took the consortium, not a single cent.”

Father Huang was so shocked that his eyes lost focus, and his soul seemed to have left his body. “There is no doubt that the 16th Consortium will be taken. I helped the consortiums take their lives. It is good that they did not take my life. They left our family property to us?”

Huang Baobao let go of He Jiong’s arm and said, “It’s all because of He Jiong! Otherwise, we won’t be able to save you even if we go bankrupt!”

“It’s not that exaggerated,” He Jiong waved his hands and spoke humbly.

“I heard them clearly in the meeting. If I didn’t have a way to get to them, they wouldn’t let him go, no matter how much money I’d spent. They’ll lock him up until he dies!” Huang Baobao’s tone was filled with emotion as he recalled what Wang Wen had said before he left.

Director Huang heaved a long sigh.

He turned around and knelt in front of He Jiong. “You saved not only my life but also my entire family. I’ll never forget this great favor!”

He Jing jumped in fright.

Seeing that Huang Baobao was also about to kneel...

He quickly grabbed the two of them and forced them up.

Even though he was a tower climber, he was only an ordinary one.

Those two were the top figures in a consortium!

Although they had chosen the wrong team and lost their properties...

No matter how bad it was, the other party’s net worth was thousands of times his. It could be hundreds of thousands of times more.

He could not let them kneel for him.

He Jiong’s heart was pounding in fear. He forcefully helped the two of them up and walked toward the entrance.

Afraid that the two would kneel and scare him again, he coaxed them like he was coaxing children. “Well, Director Huang, you guys should go home and rest. You’ve suffered enough for so many days, Huang Baobao!”

Huang Baobao stood at attention and looked at him.

He Jiong said helplessly, “I’m fine. We’ll talk about it later. You take good care of your father. He’s weak. Take him home and let him rest. Don’t cause any more trouble, understand?”

Huang Baobao nodded.

When they arrived at the gate, everyone looked at Director Huang, who had been rescued, as if they had seen a ghost.

Huang Baobao ignored the others.

After helping his father into the car, he turned around and held He Jiong’s hand. He said, “From now on, you’re my brother! I’ll get my dad home, and we’ll get together again later.”

“I know, I know. Go on, leave!” He Jiong looked at his palm and impatiently chased him away.

Huang Baobao patted him again.

Then, he turned around, got into his car, and left.

He left behind a group of dumbfounded onlookers.

He Jiong looked at the gazes of the people around him, shrugged his shoulders awkwardly, and smiled.

“It’s annoying if a person is too polite.”
