Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Kneel Down, Apologize
Li Yuechan lied, concealing the fact that she was actually meeting with Wang Dong at the hotel.
Long Chen clenched his fists, feeling heavy-hearted.
He couldn't believe that Li Yuechan would be such a casual person.
Over the past year or more, Li Yuechan hadn't shown any good grace towards Long Chen, but having lived under the same roof for so long, Long Chen had a general understanding of what Li Yuechan liked and disliked and whether she would do something outrageous.
"There must be something hidden here."
Long Chen thought to himself and entered the hotel immediately.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?"
The receptionist asked with a polite smile.
"I'm here to find someone, could you tell me which room Mr. Wang Dong is staying in?" Long Chen inquired.
"This..." The receptionist looked at Long Chen with suspicion, "The privacy of our guests, I can't just reveal that, I'm truly sorry."
"What if I absolutely must know?" Long Chen asked abruptly.
"Sir, please don't put me in a difficult position..."
"I'm not a bad person, I won't cause trouble in the hotel, six thousand, dare to earn it?"
Long Chen stared at the receptionist.
"Sir, it's not a matter of money, I really can't disclose guest privacy."
"Seven thousand, I promise just to talk for a few moments and then leave, nobody will know."
"Then you must keep it a secret for me, don't talk carelessly, okay?" The receptionist bit her lower lip lightly, then told Long Chen Wang Dong's room number.
Long Chen then booked a room, and while paying for it, he transferred the money for the receptionist and afterwards took his room card and elevator card, and entered the elevator.
Soon, Long Chen arrived outside room 3021, which was indeed Wang Dong's room number!
Long Chen stood at the door of the room and easily heard the conversation coming from inside.
The sound insulation level of the rooms in this hotel was very high, an ordinary person wouldn't be able to hear anything, but Long Chen was no ordinary person.
The awakening of his bloodline had caused an earth-shattering change in all of Long Chen's senses.
"Yuechan, since you're here, I think you must have made up your mind, go take a shower."
That was Wang Dong's voice.
"Wang Dong, the condition you're asking for, I really can't consent to. I'm here sincerely to apologize to you for my husband hitting you, if you still feel uncomfortable, you can beat me up."
Li Yuechan said.
"How could I bear to hit you?" Wang Dong laughed, "Yuechan, you need to think carefully. Being my woman, that project would belong to the Li Family, a project worth several billion, it could change the fate of the Li Family, I hope you make your decision carefully."
"Even if it was a ten billion or a hundred billion project, I couldn't agree."
"If you don't agree, you won't be able to leave this room today, and besides, you came in here by yourself, there is surveillance to prove it, if I turn raw rice into cooked rice, you can't do anything to me, so will you shower and come out on your own, or should I come do it?"
Wang Dong let out a grim laugh, reaching out towards Li Yuechan.
"Wang Dong, don't you touch me, since you won't accept my apology, then I'm leaving."
Li Yuechan turned to leave but was suddenly grabbed by Wang Dong.
"Wang Dong, you bastard."
Li Yuechan became anxious.
"Ts ts, today I have to be a bastard, you play too much the saint, I want to see if you'll still act like this in a moment, get down on the ground for me."
"Ah, get away!"
Li Yuechan screamed.
Outside the door, Long Chen's gaze turned icy, and he kicked the room door open with ferocity.
The power of the kick was so great that the room door was directly smashed to pieces.
Long Chen rushed into the room just in time to see Long Chen starting to undress Li Yuechan,
He was furious and charged over, grabbing Wang Dong and beating him mercilessly.
Wang Dong was panic-stricken, screaming miserably, quickly bleeding from the mouth and nose.
Li Yuechan was extremely startled by Long Chen's sudden arrival, yet also immensely relieved.
If Long Chen hadn't barged in, she would have been unable to escape her predicament.
Seeing Long Chen pound Wang Dong without the slightest indication of stopping, Li Yuechan grew frightened, afraid that Long Chen would kill Wang Dong and truly escalate the situation.
"Long Chen, stop it right now."
Li Yuechan stepped forward to pull Long Chen away.
"He tried to bully you, I must kill him."
Long Chen's eyes had turned red.
"If you really kill him, you will die too, don't do this, it's not worth it."
Li Yuechan embraced Long Chen tightly.
Long Chen took a deep breath, regaining a bit of calm,
While Wang Dong, at the moment, had been beaten severely, his face swollen and bruised, blood bubbling from his mouth.
A few more hits and Wang Dong's life would surely be in danger.
"Wang Dong, kneel down, and apologize to my wife."
There was a chilling light in Long Chen's eyes.
"You... dream on."
Hate filled Wang Dong's eyes, like a venomous snake fixating on Long Chen.
"You won't kneel, huh? Fine, today I won't kill you, but I'll cripple your third leg,"
Long Chen feigned a move to attack.
"No, no, no, I'll kneel."
Wang Dong immediately caved, struggling to get down on his knees and apologizing to Li Yuechan.
"Forget it... It's enough."
Li Yuechan spoke in a flustered manner.
She was perfectly aware that a person like Wang Dong would seek revenge as soon as he left the hotel.
The more humiliating the kneeling, the more intense Wang Dong's retaliation would be.
Yet Li Yuechan didn't truly dare to let Long Chen kill Wang Dong.
"Since my wife has forgiven you, I'll spare you this time, but remember, if there's a next time, I will really kill you."
Once Long Chen finished speaking, he took Li Yuechan and walked out.
When they left the hotel, Li Yuechan pulled her hand away from Long Chen's.
"Wife, what's wrong?"
Long Chen was puzzled.
"You're too impulsive," Li Yuechan hissed, "After you barged in here, you should have just taken me away. Why did you have to hit him? Now you've completely offended the Wang Family, and that project is utterly doomed."
"He tried to bully you, I couldn't help it," Long Chen said.
"Long Chen, you're really hopeless.
Before, you used to be so timid about everything, but now you're trying to solve all your problems with violence. Is that even possible? You've disappointed me so much."
"Wife, don't worry, I can still secure that project, believe me," Long Chen said gravely.
"Don't call me 'wife.' At this point, even if an Immortal descended, it wouldn't change the outcome. I think we've really come to the end of the road. Go home and get ready, we'll get divorced tomorrow morning. I've lost all hope in you."
Li Yuechan tightened her coat and then quickly walked away.
"Yuechan, before tonight is over, the Wang Family will definitely call you themselves to offer the project to the Li Family,"
Long Chen shouted.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuechan felt even more agitated, thinking Long Chen was hopelessly naive.
Long Chen took a deep breath and didn't follow Li Yuechan. Instead, he returned to the hotel to find Wang Dong again.
Wang Dong was in the midst of sobbing while calling his father to complain, and when he suddenly saw Long Chen come in, he was scared out of his wits.
"Don't be nervous, you were calling your dad, right? Lead the way, I'll take you home myself. Oh, by the way, your dad is in Seven Star City now, isn't he?"
Long Chen asked casually.
"He is... he is."
Wang Dong was a bit panicked.
"What are we waiting for then? Doesn't your family want to deal with me? I'll present myself to them," Long Chen said.
