The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 466: I’m a Very Reasonable Person
Chapter 466: Chapter 466: I’m a Very Reasonable Person
"What? He’s the same Ye Chenfeng who caused a huge stir in the newspapers not so long ago? No wonder he looked so familiar to me. Ah, I really missed an opportunity to befriend a master this time. If only I had known, I would have stepped up and kicked Li Mingliang a couple of times too!"
"Didn’t you hear Duan Tianrui’s introduction? Ye Chenfeng is Duan Tianrui’s grandfather’s master, and he’s also the direct grandson of the Ye family’s Elder in Capital City. Do you have any idea how powerful the Yes are in Capital City? They could probably crush you to death with just a flick of their finger. This time I think Li Mingliang is done for. His dad is at best a mere director of the industrial and commercial bureau, practically an ant before the Ye family, such a blind fool."
"No wonder even the always arrogant Duan Tianrui refers to him as ’Grandmaster.’ So, he’s Ye Chenfeng! Ever since I read about him, I’ve been wanting to meet him in person. If I could get him to give me just a few pointers, my medical skills would surely improve by leaps and bounds."
"Ye Chenfeng is so handsome! It’s unbelievable that he is so young and yet his medical skills surpass those of Huaxia Country’s authoritative doctors. If I could become his girlfriend, I would be willing to give up ten years of my life."
"Stop dreaming, Ye Chenfeng is a favored son of heaven. Are we even worthy of him? But then again, if I could become Ye Chenfeng’s girlfriend, I would be willing to give up twenty years of my life."
"I would be willing to give up thirty years of my life for Ye Chenfeng."
"I would be willing to give up forty years of my life for Ye Chenfeng."
"I would be willing to give up fifty years of my life for Ye Chenfeng."
...
What began as a quiet discussion among the students from Capital City Medical University gradually turned into a display of infatuation from numerous female students. In the end, a girl who weighed at least 180 pounds said with a look of longing, "If Ye Chenfeng would kiss me now, I’d be willing to die right away."
The righteously busty girl, listening to the noisy discussions around her, had originally thought that Ye Chenfeng and his group would definitely be at a disadvantage today. Who could have expected that the situation would change so dramatically? The youth she had considered somewhat pale and unimpressive was actually Ye Chenfeng, the one who had won the international medical exchange competition for Huaxia Country?
No wonder she felt an inexplicable fondness for Ye Chenfeng. She had also seen reports about him but hadn’t recognized him at the time. Ye Chenfeng’s medical skills truly fascinated her.
Li Weidong, Zhou Yong, and Shi Jianwei were completely stunned, with their breathing getting heavier. The Yes? For them, this was a colossal entity, and they had unknowingly offended the grandson of Elder Ye? And to flaunt their authority in front of Elder Ye’s grandson was more ludicrous than wielding a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
Zhou Yong, the chief of the Southern District Police Sub-bureau, was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, wishing he could smack himself several times. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with him at all; it was only because he had volunteered to help Li Weidong out with his trouble. But now, he had gotten himself into such a big mess.
Zhou Yong, just a small-time sub-bureau chief, knew all too well the consequences of offending the grandson of the Ye family’s Elder. Chances were he would have to step down from his position as chief, and he might even end up in prison. Like many others, hadn’t he accepted bribes? If an investigation were to start, his secrets wouldn’t stand the light of day.
Similarly, Shi Jianwei, the president of Capital City Medical University, wasn’t feeling any better. Who had he provoked? If the Ye family were to pursue this, he could kiss his position as president goodbye. Ye Chenfeng was clearly the grandson of the Ye family’s Elder; why didn’t you say so earlier? To reveal his identity only at the last moment was to trap everyone. It was utterly unfair; he wasn’t playing by the rules.
At the same time, Zhou Yong and Shi Jianwei were already considering how to distance themselves from Li Weidong. Now was not the time for loyalties and brotherhood. For these two, self-preservation was the most important thing.
Sun Zida, who had firmly taken Li Mingliang’s side, was so terrified upon learning Ye Chenfeng’s extraordinary identity that he nearly wet himself. After all, Li Mingliang was the son of a bureau chief, while Sun Zida was nobody; the Yes didn’t even need to speak to take action against him, as many people would happily do it for them. A sense of overwhelming despair rapidly spread through Sun Zida’s heart.
Li Mingliang’s body shook uncontrollably. Only now did he realize whom he had provoked. Had he known the identity of the other party beforehand, even if he were lent a hundred guts, he wouldn’t have dared to provoke Ye Chenfeng; and if Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei had come to enroll with Wu Jie in a decent-looking car, Li Mingliang probably wouldn’t have easily harassed Wu Xiaofei. Li Mingliang attributed all the reasons to Ye Chenfeng being too low-key and too good at pretending, which made him feel an urge to burst into tears.
Li Mingliang’s father, Li Weidong, saw the anger vanish from his eyes. When you face an enemy that you will never be able to defeat, someone who could easily destroy you with a mere flick of their finger, naturally, the hatred in your heart will gradually disappear. This was the sensation of powerlessness in the face of reality.
Li Weidong had a sudden epiphany. He had been too indulgent with his son in the past, which led his son to become increasingly presumptuous, and today led to committing such an irremediable mistake. He wished he could slap Li Mingliang right away. He adjusted his breathing and said, "Young Master Ye, rest assured, my son will fulfill the bet he made with you."
Looking at the indifferent Li Mingliang, Li Weidong slapped the back of Li Mingliang’s head and scolded, "You little bastard, what did you bet with Young Master Ye? Fulfill your promise to Young Master Ye immediately."
Li Mingliang had not told his father about the bet with Ye Chenfeng, so seeing his father’s thunderous temper, Li Mingliang stammered, "I bet with Young Master Ye that whoever loses the bet must eat this wooden table." Li Mingliang reluctantly pointed to a table not far away.
Li Weidong was slightly taken aback and said with resignation, "Young Master Ye, as you see, this bet might not be very realistic. Could we perhaps change it?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com
"Are you suggesting that Director Li intends to let his son renege on the bet? Your son hasn’t even started eating the table yet; how can you be so sure the bet is unrealistic? However, I am a very reasonable person. Since he is your son’s good friend, I can agree to let him accompany your son in eating this table." Ye Chenfeng smiled and pointed at Sun Zida, who stood there foolishly.
Sun Zida shook all over, and the urine in his bladder finally could not be held back any longer, spraying out, quickly soaking his pants, drawing a great burst of laughter.
"Director Li, although I am a very reasonable person, I take promises very seriously. Since your son made a promise to me, he should fulfill it obediently. Otherwise, I think you know what the consequences will be for the few of you, right?" Ye Chenfeng had no need to show mercy to people like Li Mingliang and Li Weidong; such people had likely caused harm to many good people before.
"Director Li, you’d better have your son get on with it quickly! Besides, didn’t Young Master Ye say your son’s friend can help?" Zhou Yong hurriedly stepped forward to say, knowing that first they needed to appease Ye Chenfeng in order to increase their chances of escaping this predicament.
"That’s right, Weidong. It’s something Mingliang promised, so he should keep his word," Principal Shi Jianwei also chimed in.
Li Weidong’s heart ached as he shook his head. What Ye Chenfeng had said about being a very reasonable person, Li Weidong just took for a fart. He knew that in this world, justice was in the hands of those with power. If Ye Chenfeng had been someone without any status or background, today Li Weidong and his lot would have probably played him to death.
"You little bastard, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up and keep your own promise."
Then, Li Weidong turned towards Sun Zida and shouted, "Aren’t you a friend of my son? Go join him!"
In his heart, Li Weidong prayed, hoping that by his son swallowing his pride and fulfilling his promise, the matter would end there, and he could still sit in the position of the Director of the Commerce and Industry Bureau in the future.
