Magic Doctor: CEO Lady's Humble Husband chapter 136-150

 

Chapter 136

Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei felt ridiculous when they saw that the black shadow actually used his bare hands to take down both of their full blow at the same time.

As masters at the Advanced Stage of the Yellow Class, they knew how powerful this strike was. Ordinary people would probably die if they resisted it with all their strength, let alone by using their hands only.

Even if Kevin Huang was a master of martial arts, he was still arrogant when fighting with two people at this moment. Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei thought that he underestimated his enemy.

Duncan Wei, who was standing behind them, couldn't help but be overjoyed. He almost clapped his hands and shouted, "Master, Uncle Wei. That guy is so evil. Please teach him a good lesson. I must return back the slap he gave me just now and let him taste my strength."

"Boom, boom!"

At the last moment, the attack of Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei fiercely bombarded Kevin Huang's hands.

They seemed to have seen that Kevin Huang's arm was broken by this great force.

However, just as their fists met, their bodies shook and their expressions changed dramatically. They looked extremely horrified.

Because while their fists and feet hit Kevin Huang's arm, they felt that as if they had hit a steel plate. The huge force did not shake Kevin Huang at all. Instead, it bounced back and made their hands and feet numb.

"Oh no!"

The two of them looked at each other and screamed in unison. They quickly withdrew and were about to retreat.

"You want to run away? Do you think it's possible?" But at this moment, the black shadow of Kevin Huang sneered. He clenched his hands and immediately grabbed the wrists of Thomas Qiao and the ankles of Jimmy Wei.

Then, a huge force surged over. The two people felt that their bodies were being swung uncontrollably, and their whole body was spinning quickly in the air. Finally, with a loud bang, they were thrown to the ground at the same time.

The whole villa seemed to have shaken with this force.

The two people were shocked and spat out a mouthful of blood. Their faces turned extremely pale.

Duncan Wei, who was just supporting his master, turned pale in an instant and was stunned. "How, how could it be possible? Master and Uncle Wei joined hands, but they lost! They lost in one move!" Duncan Wei exclaimed.

At this time, the black shadow walked over with his hands behind his back and sneered at them, "Now, you know what is the real power!"

At this moment, Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei's faces were full of disbelief. They stared at the black shadow as if they could hardly believe that they had been defeated in one move. "This, how is this possible? We are masters at the Advanced Stage of the Yellow Class. Even if you are a master at the final stage of the Yellow Class, it is impossible for you to defeat us so easily!"

"Impossible?" The black shadow Kevin Huang sneered, "It seems like you don't understand the gap between the late stage of the yellow level and the peak of the yellow level. A master at the peak of the yellow level won't lose even if he fights with ten masters at the late stage of the yellow level, not to mention you two."

"This, this..." Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei couldn't believe it. They couldn't believe that there was such a big gap between them.

Kevin Huang looked at the two people with a pitiful expression, shook his head and said, "Jimmy, you are old, and your heart is old too. In this small Bay City, you are the king, and you think you have made a success. Your strength is only at the late stage of the yellow stage, and you call yourself a master. But you don't know how vast the outside world is and how powerful the masters are."

"You're out!"

His words made Jimmy Wei's face change and he couldn't help but be shocked. Indeed, the comfortable life these years had already obliterated his heart to strive for more. Whether it was career or martial arts, he slowed down and had been used to living in a corner. He didn't know how different the outside world was.

Now, he finally saw the tip of the iceberg, but it was too late. There was not much time left for him.

With a sigh, Jimmy Wei looked at Kevin Huang and said, "Kevin, I was the one who caused all the things that happened that year. If you want revenge, I'll let you have it. But in the end, I hope that you can let go the others. Let me be the only one that suffer the consequences!"

"Ha-ha!" Kevin Huang sneered, "Jimmy Wei, it's a bit late for you to say these words at this time."

"I tell you, it's not just you that have to pay the price. The thug you hired, your wife, your daughter, and all your relatives and friends have to pay the price!" Kevin Huang said.

"Kevin, you." Jimmy Wei was shocked and his eyes widened with anger. He wanted to rush up and resist.

However, Kevin Huang stamped him on the ground and said coldly, "Now you are not qualified to negotiate with me!"

After that, he raised his right foot, aimed at Jimmy Wei's head, and was about to step down.

At this moment, his eyes were full of revenge and his expression was ferocious. He was about to kill Jimmy Wei.

Seeing this, Thomas Qiao's eyes showed a trace of horror, and then he feebly lowered his head. Duncan Wei was so scared that he sat on the ground, and his face was completely pale.

Just as Kevin Huang's deadly kick was about to step down, a calm but powerful voice sounded, "Your behaviour is a little over!"

"Who?" Kevin Huang, who was about to step down, was shocked and his face froze.

Because before he came, he had already investigated the people and forces in the villa. He did not realize that there were other masters here, but at this moment, the sudden appearance of this person surprised him.

At this time, Fade Chen, with his hands in his pocket, walked out unhurriedly. He looked at Kevin Huang and said, "Stop. Your revenge is enough."

Kevin Huang glanced around and saw Fade Chen's face clearly. He was a young man in his early twenties. His body looked loose and weak, and he had no combatant value at all.

"Are you the one talking?" Kevin Huang looked at Fade Chen in surprise.

Fade Chen continued to approach and said, "It's time for you to stop!"

Kevin Huang stared at Fade Chen fiercely, and once again pry into Fade Chen's strength, but found nothing. In his investigation, this young man was completely an ordinary person without any martial arts strength.

"An ordinary person shouldn't stand out at this time and yet be so calm!" Kevin Huang was surprised and doubtful. He carefully checked Fade Chen's strength again, but the result was the same. On him, he could not feel any strength of a martial artist at all.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and snorted. His eyes suddenly became fierce, with a hint of anger after being tricked, "You are playing tricks in front of me! Then, you shall go to hell first!"

 

Chapter 137

 

While speaking, Kevin Huang grabbed towards Fade Chen. His five fingers cut through the air and brought out a gust of wind as he reached out towards Fade Chen's heart hard.

 

If Kevin Huang really caught it, Fade Chen's heart would be ripped out. He would definitely die.

 

It had to be said that Kevin Huang had been trained outside for many years, and his skills were very cruel. When he attacked, every attempt he made was a brutal move that caused injury and death. Even if both of them were at the end-level of the Yellow class, if he fought with Jimmy Wei alone, he would've definitely been defeated.

 

This was the strength gap between a normal warrior and a warrior who had been tempered in actual combat.

 

However, Kevin Huang's moves against Fade Chen was another case. Regardless of whether Fade Chen's strength had been tempered in actual combat, his actual skills were much higher than Kevin Huang's.

 

Therefore, in the face of Kevin Huang's move, Fade Chen had no intention of avoiding it at all. He raised his right arm, and held out his index finger and middle finger, then, gently touched Kevin Huang's palm. His action was light as a feather.

 

"Slap!"

Fade Chen tapped Kevin Huang's palm with his finger.

In an instant, Kevin Huang felt a weird and numb feeling coming along his arm. His arm suddenly trembled, and then he couldn't exert any strength and couldn't even lift it up.

 

Tom Wei saw this move behind him and could not help but to think of the first time he and Fade Chen met in the Drunken Parlour. At that time, Fade Chen directly defeated him with this "Sky-Locking Finger", which made Tom Wei admired Fade Chen.

 

Now, when he saw Fade Chen use this move again, he couldn't help exclaiming, "Sky-Locking Finger!"

 

Of course, Fade Chen's attack this time was much more brutal than the last time. Almost in an instant, Kevin Huang's face turned pale, his arms became numb and powerless.

 

Kevin Huang was extremely shocked. He knew the horror of the Sky-Locking Finger. When this skill was practiced to the very end, the enemy will be paralyzed and with no strength to resist.

 

But the Sky-Locking Finger was the top martial art technique which only belonged to the top sects. Was the skill that this guy used really the "Sky-Locking Finger"?

 

For a moment, Kevin Huang couldn't help but doubt in his heart. After all, it seemed that the master who could use the Sky-Locking Finger wouldn't appear in such a remote area. He suspected that this was the trick of smokescreen by Tom Wei and Fade Chen.

 

These thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant .

While Kevin Huang was still confused, he suddenly felt that the numb feeling on his arm had already rushed up to his body. Half of his shoulder had begun to stiffen.

 

In an instant, Kevin Huang was shocked. "It's really the Sky Locking Finger!"

"Who on earth is this guy? He actually knows the skill of Sky Locking Finger!" Kevin Huang was shocked, but at this moment, he had no time to investigate these matters. If this numbness spread to his whole body, then he would not be able to move at all and would be an easy target.

 

Thinking of this, Kevin Huang could not help but bite his teeth, shook his left hand gently, and a cold light emerged from his sleeve. It was the blade he used before.

 

He stared hard at Fade Chen and gritted his teeth. With his left hand holding the blade, he waved it quickly and cut off his right arm!

 

In an instant, his body shook violently, and he screamed in pain. His forehead was sweaty. His left hand quickly touched the broken part of his right arm to stop the gushing of blood.

 

Then, Kevin Huang immediately turned around and fled without looking back.

All of this happened very quickly, in just a matter of few seconds.

Jimmy Wei and Thomas Qiao could not help but gasp when they saw this scene. They were shocked. Kevin Huang was not only very cruel to others, but also cruel to himself.

 

How could he cut off his own arm with a knife? Thinking of this, Jimmy Wei's heart couldn't help but surge wildly. What Kevin Huang said just now hit him hard in the heart.

 

"I have really been at ease for too long. The ruthlessness in my heart has been obliterated. If I am put into the situation like Kevin Huang just now, I am afraid that I can't do it at all." Jimmy Wei's forehead was full of sweat.

 

At this moment, Thomas Qiao was also shocked. His actual combat experience was longer than Jimmy Wei's, but he was definitely not as brutal as Kevin Huang.

 

"He is definitely a guy who is desperate for his life. If we got defeated by him, we will surely die!" Thomas Qiao was shocked.

 

While they were still in a daze, Kevin Huang's had already jumped to the side of the swimming pool. If he could move forward a bit more and jump over the wall. He had a great chance to escape.

 

Seeing this, Tom Wei suddenly woke up and became anxious. He hurriedly shouted, "He's going to run. Hurry up and chase him!"

 

Jimmy Wei and Thomas Qiao suddenly came back to their senses and thought quickly. If they let this kind of ruthless person escape, they will not be able to sleep well in the future. They had to worry about being assassinated by this kind of person at all times.

 

Instantly, the two jumped up from the ground at the same time and chased Kevin Huang with all their strength.

 

However, the two of them were not as fast as Kevin Huang after all, and there was still some distance between them. They could only watch Kevin Huang ran farther and farther away, and they couldn't catch up.

 

At this moment, Fade Chen, who had only used one finger just now, narrowed his eyes and his chest surged. Then, a blast of strength burst out of his mouth, and at the same time, a thunder-like roar sounded, "Don't you dare thinking of escaping!"

 

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, a white breath came out of Fade Chen's mouth. The breath turned into a sword in the air. It broke through the space at a very fast speed and accurately stabbed the back of Kevin Huang, who was about to climb over the wall.

 

"Whoosh!"

The sword went through Kevin Huang's body and continued to fly forward. After flying for about 400 or 500 meters, it gradually dissipated under the bright moonlight.

 

As for Kevin Huang's body, his heart was directly penetrated, and his body instantly lost vitality. His body stopped and then fell into the swimming pool, creating a huge splash of water.

 

Jimmy Wei and Thomas Qiao rushed over and dragged Kevin Huang out of the swimming pool. After confirming that he was dead, they were relieved.

 

Then, they looked at Fade Chen and their expressions became tense again.

 

The young man in his early twenties killed Kevin Huang, who was at the peak of the Yellow Class, in just two moves.

 

First, it was a mysterious martial arts technique, the Sky Locking Finger!

 

Then, it was a superb skill that could turn one's breath into a sword!

What kind of masters could reach this Black level, the Earth level, and even the Heaven level? They didn't know what to guess, and didn't dare to make any wild guesses.

 

Chapter 138

 

Jimmy Wei was stunned and his head was in a mess. He still could not comprehend what was happening in front of him.

 

At this time, Tom Wei woke up from the shock, rushed to Fade Chen and said with a smile, "Brother Fade, you're amazing. You killed that guy with two moves. What's the last move? It's so awesome!"

 

Tom Wei did not understand so much and did not know what Fade Chen's last move meant just now. So at this moment, he was not as shocked as Jimmy Wei and the others.

 

Fade Chen smiled faintly and said, "Nothing, just a little trick!"

Hearing Fade Chen's words, Jimmy Wei came to his senses and hurried forward. He knelt on one knee and saluted Fade Chen. "Mr. Chen, thank you very much for what happened today! If it weren't for you, we would have been killed by Kevin.."

 

Fade Chen helped Jimmy Wei up and said with a smile, "Uncle Long, no need to thank me. I'm Tom's friend. It's not a big deal."

 

Speaking of this, Jimmy Wei couldn't help but blush and he was a little embarrassed. After all, when Tom Wei brought Fade Chen to help, he didn't believe it at all. Instead, he wanted to drive them away. However, the result was completely beyond his imagination.

 

Thinking of this, Jimmy Wei apologized and thanked Fade Chen again.

 

After Fade Chen's courtesy, Jimmy Wei finally stopped thanking him.

At this time, Thomas Qiao and Duncan Wei came to Fade Chen and finally found an opportunity to speak.

 

"Uh." However, before he could make a sound, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

 

After all, Duncan Wei and Thomas Qiao's sarcasm towards Fade Chen was still vivid in their mind, especially Duncan Wei, who said that he wanted to take revenge on Fade Chen. Now when they think about it, they thought how ridiculous he was just now.

 

"Mr. Chen, I was too arrogant previously. How offensive my words were! Please forgive me, Mr. Chen!" Thomas Qiao bowed to Fade Chen respectfully and apologized.

 

Fade Chen snorted and said nothing.

Thomas Qiao bent deeper. "If Mr. Chen wants to punish me, Thomas dares not to resist. Mr. Chen, please punish!"

 

Fade Chen still did not speak. He glanced at Duncan Wei coldly.

Upon seeing this, Thomas Qiao raised his head and glanced at Duncan Wei, who was standing beside him with a reluctant look. Thomas Qiao immediately got angry. He kicked Duncan Wei to the ground and roared, "Why are you still standing there? Quickly kowtow to Mr. Chen and apologize!"

 

The move just now caused Duncan Wei to fall to the ground, and his injured right hand was rushed to the ground. It was painful. At this moment, he couldn't help but looked at Thomas Qiao with tears in his eyes and said, "Master, my hand..."

 

Thomas Qiao's eyes were about to pop out, and he cursed in his heart. "This guy can't tell what matter is important at all. In front of a master like Mr. Chen, your hand is nothing."

 

"Apologize to Mr. Chen, or I'll break your other hand!" Thomas Qiao roared.

Duncan Wei had never met his master who loved him so much to be angry at him, he was really scared. He quickly kowtowed and apologized to Fade Chen.

 

Fade Chen looked at Duncan Wei's kowtow coldly until his forehead was bleeding and his face was blurred by the blood. Then, he said lightly, "Okay."

 

Duncan Wei breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to stand up. But before Duncan Wei could move, he was pressed to the ground by his master, Thomas Qiao, with a face of flattery and respect. He said, "Mr. Chen, Duncan is young and reckless, and offended Mr. Chen. Please don't take it to heart."

 

Fade Chen said coldly, "I can spare him this time. But don't rely on your martial arts skills to be arrogant and bully others. This is not the teaching of martial arts!"

 

"Yes, thanks to Mr. Chen's teachings!" Thomas Qiao nodded, then pressed Duncan Wei and kowtowed to Fade Chen to thank him. Then he got up.

 

Later, Thomas Qiao and Jimmy Wei chatted for a while and said that they wanted to leave. Jimmy Wei could not stay, so he paid the corresponding reward, and then he thanked them and sent them out.

 

After leaving the Jimmy Wei's Villa, Thomas Qiao too Duncan Wei and ran as fast as he could, as if someone was chasing after them.

 

Qiao took Duncan Wei did not understand why his master was like this, and could not help complaining, "Master, why are you in such a hurry to leave? It's so late now, and I'm injured. Why don't we rest in the villa for a night before leaving? After all, you have helped Jimmy Wei, so it's not a problem for us to stay for a night!

 

Thomas Qiao glared at Duncan Wei angrily and shouted, "What are we staying there for! Are you looking for death?"

 

"What looking for death?" Duncan Wei asked in confusion.

 

Thomas Qiao patted Duncan Wei's head hard and scolded, "So I should let you stay there and let you offend Mr. Chen again, and then bury both of us there?"

 

"Master, why are you so afraid of Fade Chen?" Duncan Wei was a little confused. Although Fade Chen defeated Kevin Huang. But in his opinion, it seemed that he was not that powerful.

 

 Hearing this, Thomas Qiao's eyes almost popped out. He gave Duncan Wei another slap rudely and cursed angrily, "Do you know that we just went through the jaws of death? Any carelessness will lead us to the same fate as Kevin Huang. Do you dare not be afraid?"

 

"Jaws of death? No way, is it that horrible?" Duncan Wei asked in confusion.

Thomas Qiao took a deep breath and resisted the impulse to beat this stupid disciple in his heart. He explained in a deep voice, "Do you know how terrifying Fade Chen's strength is?"

 

"Strength? I think he may be a master of the Black level!" Duncan Wei guessed. After all, Kevin Huang was a master at the peak of the Yellow-level. It was reasonable that Fade Chen could beat him.

 

However, when Thomas Qiao heard this, he immediately cursed, "Are you stupid? A Black level master? Can a Black level master defeat Kevin, who is at the peak of the Yellow Class? Can a Black level master use the Sky-Locking Finger? Can a Black level master spit Qi into a sword?"

 

"This, this... Master, is Fade Chen more powerful than the black stage? Earth-stage perhaps? How old is he? How is it possible?" Duncan Wei was a little doubtful.

 

Thomas Qiao explained with a lingering fear, "Your strength is still too weak to understand the horror of the real master. It's hard for a master of the Black Level to defeat a master of the Yellow Level in two moves. Some top masters of the Black level may be able to do it. But it definitely won't be as easy as Fade Chen made it to be.

 

"Moreover, the move he displayed is the Sky-Locking Finger, which shows that he has a good background and is likely to be from a famous sect. The Sword Exhalation of his flew hundreds of meters away before dissipating. It is probably not his inner aura, but the breath of the Genuine Vitality, which shows that his personal strength and realm are at least at the Early-stage of Earth Class."

 

"Fade is a young master from a famous sect whose strength has reached the Earth Class. Why do you think i'm in such a hurry to leave?" Thomas Qiao glared at Duncan Wei and asked in a harsh voice.

 

Chapter 139

 

At this moment, after hearing his master's explanation, Duncan Wei felt a burst of fear from the bottom of his heart.

 

Whether it was the state of Fade Chen's strength or his status, he could easily kill him and his master. Even their religious sect, the San Mountain, would just be like an ant in front of Fade Chen.

 

Duncan Wei finally understood his master's fear when he could came out alive even when he constantly go up against such a master. At this moment, his heart was cold and fearful.

 

Suddenly, he no longer complained. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his body. He ran madly, trying to get as far away from Fade Chen as possible.

 

When Duncan Wei and Thomas Qiao left in a panic, Jimmy Wei and Tom Wei were holding a banquet to offer hospitality to Fade Chen.

 

After all, Jimmy Wei was not a member of a martial arts sect, so he did not know Fade Chen's strength as well as Thomas Qiao. He only vaguely guessed that Fade Chen's strength should be between the late stage of the Black Level and the Earth Level.

 

At the banquet, Jimmy Wei thanked Fade Chen again for saving his life. After chatting with Fade Chen for a while about martial arts, he was taken aback regarding Fade Chen's amazing skills at such a young age. Not only his medical skills were amazing, but his martial arts strength was also so powerful, which was really unbelievable.

 

After expressing his gratitude, Jimmy Wei began to inquire about the martial arts world outside from Fade Chen.

 

Fade Chen knew that Jimmy Wei was stimulated by Kevin Huang's statements. He didn't want to live in this small place for the rest of his life. He also wanted to widen his view towards the world.

 

After all, he had been in Bay city for so many years and had run such a big industry. It was not easy to get rid of all this and go out to make a living again.

 

In this regard, Fade Chen did not make much opinion. He just told Jimmy Wei about some things regarding the martial arts world so that he could have a general understanding of it. As for whether he should go out or not, it was up to Jimmy Wei himself to decide.

 

In this way, Fade Chen stayed overnight in the villa of the Wei family and talked with Jimmy Wei. The next morning, Tom Wei sent someone to drive Fade Chen back home.

 

As soon as he went home, Fade Chen immediately received a phone call from Lily Wei. She learned that Fade Chen saved Jimmy last night and expressed her gratitude to Fade Chen on the phone. At the same time, she explained why she was not present last night.

 

It turned out that Jimmy Wei worried about his failure, so he let his men put sleeping pills in Lily Wei's drinks in advance and transferred her to a safe place. Until this morning, Lily Wei just woke up.

 

After chatting with Lily Wei for a while and making sure that she would treat him when they are both available, Fade Chen hung up the phone.

 

Fade Chen took a nap at home after asking for leave from the company. He didn't get up from bed until 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

 

When he sat up from the bed, his mobile phone rang. Fade Chen picked up the phone and saw the caller ID. It was Yuri Zhang, the little beauty. He was surprised at once. After all, Yuri Zhang was introverted and had never called him.

 

After picking up the phone, Fade Chen said casually, "Yuri, why are you calling me now? Do you miss me?"

 

Yuri Zhang, who was on the other side of the phone, did not expect Fade Chen to speak like this. She seemed to be a little flustered. After a few seconds, she said, "Brother Chen, it's not."

 

"Ah, it turns out that Yuri doesn't miss Brother Chen! Then I'll hang up the phone!" Fade Chen joked while dressing his clothes.

 

Hearing this, Yuri Zhang became anxious and hurriedly said, "Brother Chen, don't hang up the phone!"

 

"Oh. You stopped me from hanging up the phone. So, Yuri, it seems like you admitted that you miss me!" Fade Chen said with a smile.

 

Although they were separated, Fade Chen seemed to be able to imagine Yuri Zhang's blushing cheeks and soft voice on the other side of the phone. "Brother Chen, you, you always like to joke."

 

"Well, okay, I'm not joking. Let's get down to business. Little Yuri, why are you calling me?" Fade Chen said.

 

Yuri Zhang whispered, "Brother Chen, I, I want to treat you to dinner!"

"Treat me to dinner!" Fade Chen was surprised and muttered to himself at the same time. "A few days ago, Lily Wei just invited me to dinner. Now, Yuri Zhang want to treat me to dinner again. It seemed like he has been quite lucky recently." Then he continued, "Why? Is it because you like.."

 

Yuri Zhang seemed to worry about Fade Chen's misunderstanding and hurriedly explained, "No, Brother Chen, it's not like that. I, I just want to thank you!"

 

"No? Yuri, I didn't say anything!" Fade Chen laughed evilly, which made Yuri Zhang blushed again. She was speechless.

 

After calming herself down, Yuri Zhang said, "Brother Chen, here's the thing. Mr. Huang introduced me to a entertainment company. I just signed it. The company gave me a deposit, so I want to treat you to a meal. Brother Chen, I want to thank you personally."

 

Hearing Yuri Zhang's words, Fade Chen immediately understood. It should be what Fatty Huang mention last time that he wanted to make Yuri Zhang a star.

 

Last time, Yuri Zhang said that she wanted to think about it, so she had to discuss it with her family. Now she must have made up her mind and officially signed the contract with the entertainment company.

 

Thinking of this, Fade Chen could not help but be happy for her and said with a smile, "That's great. Yuri has become a star now. I should cherish the opportunity to have dinner with a big star!"

 

"Brother Chen, I'm not a big star. You're making fun of me again. Yuri Zhang was a little shy, but her tone showed her excitement.

 

Fade Chen laughed and said, "I didn't make fun of you. Yuri, I'm telling the truth. I believe that Yuri will definitely become a famous star. At that time, don't forget to leave me some autographs and take photos with Brother Chen!"

 

Then, Fade Chen decided the time and place on the phone to Yuri Zhang. After getting up and washing up, he changed into casual clothes and drove to the agreed restaurant.

 

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Fade Chen reached the restaurant. After parking the car, Fade Chen looked up at the well- decorated restaurant and could not help but be surprised. He did not expect that Yuri Zhang would invite him to such a luxurious restaurant.

 

At this time, Yuri Zhang, who was waiting in the restaurant, also noticed Fade Chen. She ran to Fade Chen and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, I've booked a seat. Let's go in!"

 

Fade Chen looked at the little beauty in front of him and his eyes lit up.

 

Yuri Zhang was wearing a light blue long skirt with small flowers over her knees. Her usual ponytail was united and her long hair hung down on her shoulders. Her face was applied with some light makeup, which made her innocent face look more delicate. She looked like the main female character in all kinds of youth movies.

 

Chapter 140

 

Although Yuri Zhang was not dressed fashionably, and her accessories were ordinary ones, she was prettier compared to the plain-looking, simple-dressed, introverted and shy girl she was before.

 

Seeing Fade Chen staring at her, Yuri Zhang couldn't help but blush. She lowered her head shyly and gently called, "Brother Chen."

 

Fade Chen woke up from the daze. He smiled at Yuri Zhang and said, "Yuri, you have become a superstar, you've turned even more beautiful. I couldn't take my eyes off you."

 

Yuri Zhang became shyer. "Brother Chen, you're joking me again."

"All right, no joke anymore." Fade Chen smiled and said, "But to be honest, Yuri, you are so beautiful today!"

 

Every woman will be happy if someone admires her beauty. Hearing this, Yuri Zhang couldn't help but smile.

 

Then she gently pulled Fade Chen's clothes and said, "Brother Chen, let's go in!"

Fade Chen pointed to the well-dressed customers in the restaurant and whispered in Yuri Zhang's ear, "Yuri, the food in this restaurant is very expensive. I don't like to eat in this kind of place. I'd like to eat at roadside food stalls, a barbecue and a few bottles of beer, which is the best."

 

Yuri Zhang knew that Fade Chen was saving money for her, so she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart. However, she still pulled Fade Chen inside and explained at the same time, "Brother Chen, don't worry. I'm richer now. The company has given me a contract fee of 100,000 yuan. I gave my parents 80,000 yuan, and now there are 20,000 yuan left. It's enough for dinner at a place like this."

 

After a pause, Yuri Zhang said seriously, "What's more, have to thank you, Brother Chen. I can't just treat you with a simple dinner. If it weren't for you, Brother Chen, I wouldn't have had such a good chance like this."

 

Since Yuri Zhang said so, Fade Chen did not deny her again. He nodded and said, "Well, since you are rich now. Today, will order the most expensive meal."

 

With this, Fade Chen patted his belly and said to Yuri Zhang, "My stomach is very big. Be careful, because I will eat a lot!"

 

"I'm not afraid!" The little beauty gently wrinkled her nose and showed a lovely smile. She pulled Fade Chen's clothes and continued to walk towards the restaurant.

 

Fade Chen suddenly stopped Yuri Zhang and stood still.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong?" Yuri Zhang felt strange that Fade Chen suddenly stopped.

 

Fade Chen pointed to the couple around him who walked into the restaurant hand in hand. Then he smiled at Yuri Zhang and reached out to hold her soft hand. "See, we have to go into the restaurant like this."

 

Yuri Zhang felt that the back of her hand was in his hand, and a warm feeling suddenly surged over. Yuri Zhang's cheeks instantly turned red. However, she did not refuse Fade Chen's action. Instead, she slightly lowered her head and let Fade Chen take her into the dining room.

 

Yuri Zhang had already booked a table wit a good seat. It was located in a corner near the window. The environment was quiet, and the private room was not far away.

 

After handing the menu to Fade Chen, Yuri Zhang immediately called the waiter over. "Brother Chen, you can order whatever you like!"

 

The waiter was a beautiful young woman with a smile on her face. When she saw Fade Chen's simple clothes, her eyes flashed and she frowned.

 

Fade Chen did not pay attention to the waitress's expression. He lowered his head and looked at the menu. He found that the cost of this restaurant was really expensive. A vegetable dish would cost about four hundred yuan, and a meat dish was worth seven or eight hundred yuan. If he ordered a few dishes, Yuri Zhang would probably spend several thousand dollars for a meal.

 

Although Yuri Zhang had money now, and the twenty thousand yuan she had could afford this meal, Fade Chen didn't want to use up all of her living expenses in a meal, so he ordered three or four relatively cheap dishes with a price of about a thousand yuan.

 

"That's all for the dishes." After ordering, Fade Chen closed the menu and handed it to the waitress beside him.

 

The waitress put away the menu, smiled professionally at Fade Chen, and asked, "Sir, do you want some wine? If you spend over two thousand yuan on the drinks, you can enjoy a 20% discount on your total bill. Today.."

 

Fade Chen thought of the wine that was priced at least four digits on the menu. He immediately waved his hand and said, "There's no need for the wine. Just serve two cups of plain water!"

 

The waitress was stunned for a moment, then nodded and turned to leave.

 

However, when she left, she whispered. "D*mn. No wines, only cheap things I can't get any commission out of it.

 

"What an outfit. Don't come here for dinner if you don't have any money. Shame on them."

 

"How nice it would be if I could be as lucky as Ann. Then, I can go to the private room to serve. Those Young Masters are willing to spend lots of money at any time. It's much better than this kind of poor guy."

-----

The waitress's voice was not loud, but Fade Chen's strength was so strong that he heard all her words.

 

Fade Chen couldn't help but frowned. He didn't expect the waiter of this hotel to have this kind of manner.

 

Yuri Zhang noticed Fade Chen's frown and asked, "Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

 

"Nothing!" Fade Chen waved his hand and said with a smile. Then he sighed, "I just thought that you would become a superstar, and there must be a lot of people who would love you. I feel a little jealous when thinking that I need to share you with so many people!"

 

Hearing this, Yuri Zhang couldn't help but blush. Especially when she heard the word "love", she gently blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Fade Chen up and down. "Brother Chen, my feelings for you will not change whether for now or in the future."

 

"Feeling? What feelings do you have towards me?" Fade Chen blinked his eyes and looked at Yuri Zhang with a teasing smile.

 

"Gratitude!" Yuri Zhang said.

"Only gratitude? Is there anything else?" Fade Chen sighed with a regretful look.

"And, and... I love.." Yuri Zhang's cheeks were red and her voice was too low to be heard. At this time, the waitress came over with a glass of water. Yuri Zhang quickly changed the topic and said, "Brother Chen, the water is here. You can drink water!"

 

But at this moment, Fade Chen smiled. He heard the waitress's voice from far away. How could he not hear Yuri Zhang's murmur?

However, in order not to make the little beauty shy, Fade Chen could only pretend not to hear it. He picked up the cup, took a sip, and then sighed, "Even the water you ordered is extremely appetizing."

 

Chapter 141

 

When Yuri Zhang saw this, her face turned red. She covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother Chen, the water was ordered by you!"

 

"Ah!" Fade Chen smiled and then continued, "It's your treat, so I have the chance to order some water, appetizing water."

 

"Brother Chen, you are so good at joking." Yuri Zhang said with a smile. She felt relaxed and free when chatting with Fade Chen. She liked this feeling very much.

 

The two chatted. After a while, the dishes were served. It was still the same waitress who served the dishes just now. Although there was still a smile on her face, Fade Chen could still see the unhappiness in her eyes.

 

Ignoring the snobbish waitress, Fade Chen and Yuri Zhang started to eat while chatting.

 

Fade Chen asked about Yuri Zhang's signing of the company, worried that she would be bullied. After all, with Yuri Zhang's introverted and kind temper, she might not be used to be in the entertainment industry.

 

Yuri Zhang also admitted that she was not used to it, but fortunately, with the support of Fatty Huang, the young master of the entertainment industry in Bay City, the top management of the company had to take care of Yuri Zhang.

 

Originally, according to the plan of the Fatty Huang, he would directly use his influence to make Yuri Zhang famous with a lot of money. But Yuri Zhang herself felt that it was not good. It seemed that it was not fair and would let others talk about all kinds of rumors behind her back.

 

Therefore, Yuri Zhang rejected Fatty Huang's plan. She wanted to take time to make good music with her own strength.

 

Therefore, in addition to attending classes, Yuri Zhang often went to the entertainment industry in her spare time and received guidance from the professional music teacher of the company. Although Yuri Zhang was talented in music and had a good voice, she had never received professional music training after all, so she had to learn some things from scratch.

 

The two chatted freely and soon, half of the food was eaten. The plain water on their table was soon finished. Fade Chen was going to ask the waiter to pour some more water.

 

At this moment, there was a broadcast in the restaurant. "The latest health-preserving wine that is popular in Bay City has just reached out shop. Every bottle of it is sold for 888 dollars. There is a limited number of it. It's on a first come first serve basis...

 

Generally speaking, luxurious restaurants like this would not broadcast radio advertisements that would disturb the dining atmosphere. But this Life Elixir Wine was a different matter. After all, recently, from the retirement banquet of Mr. Wu, the rumors about it spread like a wild fire among the rich in Bay City, attracting a lot of rich and powerful people.

 

However, the number of Life Elixir Wine was limited. In the beginning, it only supplied to some of the rich and powerful people in Bay City. Recently, the production of the wine increased, but it was not many. So only some luxurious restaurants can received the wine.

 

It was not easy for this restaurant to get the Life Elixir Wine in. As soon as the goods arrived, the owner immediately made a radio advertisement to attract people to buy it, and also to raise the level of the restaurant with the reputation of Life Elixir Wine.

 

After all, in the entire Bay City, there were not many restaurants that could provide Life Elixir Wine.

 

Not long after the advertisement was broadcasted, there was a burst of discussion in the restaurant. Many customers began to talk about it, and some of them immediately called the waiter and ordered the Life Elixir Wine.

 

After all, this restaurant was of good quality, and the people who came here were all rich people. They could afford to pay a few thousand yuan.

 

Fade Chen was surprised to hear the broadcast from the radio. He didn't expect that the health-preserving wine he made had become something for the rich in Bay City to display their identities and status.

 

He was not interested in this advertisement. After all, the wine that was machine-made on a larger scale was not as good as the ones made by himself.

 

But at this moment, listening to the advertisements and the surrounding discussion, Yuri Zhang's eyes began to shine.

 

Suddenly, she waved her hand at the waitress, "hi!"

The waiter came over. This time, the smile on her face disappeared. She directly pulled a long face and said coldly, "Hello, Miss, what can I do for you?"

 

Yuri Zhang nodded and said, "Please give us a bottle of the Life Elixir Wine mentioned in the broadcast just now."

 

Yuri Zhang's words shocked not only the waitress, but also Fade Chen.

"Miss, do you really want some Life Elixir Wine?" The waitress stared at Yuri Zhang in surprise and couldn't help but look at Fade Chen with a trace of suspicion.

 

Yuri Zhang nodded and said seriously, "Yes, l'l have one bottle!"

The waiter immediately smiled sincerely from the bottom of her heart. She nodded and said, "Okay, Miss, I'll go get you the Life Elixir Wine right away."

 

As she said this, the waitress turned around and left. Her footsteps were much lighter, but some murmuring could still be heard and that made Fade Chen frown.

 

"I didn't expect that this poor couple would be so generous to order such expensive Life Elixir Wine."

 

"What's wrong with that woman. Anyway, since she has ordered this wine, I can get hundreds of commission!"

 

Ignoring the waitress's words, Fade Chen looked at Yuri Zhang and asked, "Yuri, why do you suddenly order such expensive wine?"

 

Yuri Zhang looked at Fade Chen and said, "Brother Chen, heard about this Life Elixir Wine when I was in school. I heard that our headmaster got a bottle with great efforts and drank it secretly for more than a month! Moreover, I just heard from them that this Life Elixir Wine is very good for the body, especially for people who practiced martial arts. Brother Chen, you are practicing martial arts. This kind of Life Elixir Wine will be very beneficial to you."

 

"Brother Chen's martial arts need not be improved by Life Elixir Wine! Besides, this wine is too expensive, nearly 7,000 yuan!" Fade not expect that Yuri Zhang would order the wine for this reason.

 

Moreover, the effect of Life Elixir Wine was getting more and more outrageous. Although the wine had some effect of strengthening the body, it had little to no effect on the improvement of martial arts.

 

Yuri Zhang tilted her head and looked at Fade Chen, saying, "I don't think it's expensive to spend money for you, Brother Chen!"

 

Fade Chen suddenly felt warm in his heart. At the same time, he was thinking whether he should tell Yuri Zhang that he was the one who made this Life Elixir Wine. So he could actually get the most authentic wine.

 

Just as Fade Chen was thinking, the waitress came over with a small bottle of wine in her tray with a smile.

 

Fade Chen looked at the wine which was as small as a coca cola bottle on the tray and couldn't help scolding those profiteers for going too far. They repackaged the liquid into smaller bottles. The price was too high for this little wine.

 

But just as the waitress was about to come over, the door of a private room next to it suddenly opened and a head popped out. When a person saw the Life Elixir Wine in the waitress's hand, his eyes lit up and said, "Waitress, give us three bottles of this Life Elixir Wine!"

 

Chapter 142

 

The waitress was stunned for a moment and then came to her senses. She apologized to the man and said, "I'm sorry. sir. There is a limited number of Life Elixir Wine in our store and it has been sold out. This is the last bottle."

 

"What, the last bottle?" The man in the private room frowned with dissatisfaction.

 

At this time, Yuri Zhang saw the waiter's movement and couldn't help shouting, "Waitress, our wine!"

 

The waitress was about to come over with the wine. The man in the private room looked in the direction of the voice and saw Fade Chen's clothing. His eyes lit up. Then he stopped the waitress and said, "Wait a minute!"

 

"Sir?" The waitress turned around and looked at the young man in a suit and leather shoes in front of him.

 

The man pointed to the Life Elixir Wine and said, "Give me this bottle of wine!"

 

"But, another guest has.." The waitress was a little embarrassed.

The man looked at Fade Chen disdainfully again and said in a scornful tone, "Did they order it? It doesn't matter. Give me the wine. How much do they want? I'll buy it from them instead."

 

While speaking, the man reached out to get the Life Elixir Wine.

Yuri Zhang had paid attention to the situation here. Seeing this, her pretty face darkened and she said coldly, "What do you want to do?"

 

When the man saw Yuri Zhang's face, he couldn't help but be surprised. But then he smiled and said, "Babe, I just ordered a few bottles of wine. I didn't do anything! Do you want to drink it with me? In my private room, the seats are very big, and we can play together!"

 

"You are disgusting!" Yuri Zhang blushed with anger. "We ordered the Life Elixir Wine first Give it back to us."

 

The man smiled and glanced at Fade Chen. Then, he shook his hand disdainfully and said, "Isn't it about money? Give me this wine, and I'll pay you."

 

While speaking, the man directly took out a stack of red banknotes and threw them over. He sneered and said, "This is 10,000 yuan. I'll buy your bottle of wine and you can earn more than 3,000 yuan. That's me being generous!"

 

Yuri Zhang said angrily, "I don't want the money. This is the wine we ordered. We want to drink it. It's not for sale!"

 

The man frowned and snorted. "Do you think that money is not enough?"

Then, he took out a stack of banknotes and threw it over again. He said coldly, "We'll add another ten thousand yuan. This should be enough for you!"

 

Seeing this, Yuri Zhang was so angry that she couldn't help rushing out to fight with the man.

 

At this time, Fade Chen stood up and patted on Yuri Zhang's shoulder gently. He said softly, "Yuri, leave them to me!"

 

"Brother Chen, I." Yuri Zhang's eyes were filled with tears.

Fade Chen looked at the two piles of notes on the ground and put his hands in his trouser pocket. With a faint evil smile on his mouth, he walked over to the man and said, "Do you want to buy our wine?"

 

The man glanced at Fade Chen with disdain and said, "Yes." "You may not be able to earn 20,000 yuan in half a year, right?" The man said.

 

Fade Chen shook his head lightly and said, "We will not sell our wine, and I don't lack this little money. Now pick up the money and apologize to us. Then I'll let you go."

 

"Apologize?" The man curled his lip and said with a disdainful smile, "Are you kidding? Do you know who I, Lincoln Xie, am? No one has ever dared to ask me to apologize to him, let alone a loser like you!"

 

Fade Chen said, "Apologize when you do something wrong. It has nothing to do with your identity."

 

"Woah, you're teaching me a lesson now." Lincoln Xie sneered and took out another stack of money. Holding it in his hand, he directly slapped Fade Chen on the face with the money. "Believe it or not, I will smash you to death with money."

 

Seeing this, Fade Chen's eyes turned cold and he showed a hint of anger. He raised his arm and slapped Lincoln Xie in the face

 

Suddenly, Lincoln Xie's cheeks were red and swollen. He covered his cheeks with a shocked expression and shouted angrily, "How dare you! I'll kill you. I.."

 

"F**k, you deserve this beating!" Fade Chen slapped Lincoln Xie again, which made his other cheek swollen.

 

"You..." Lincoln Xie still wanted to curse, but when he saw Fade Chen raise his arm, he was so scared that he swallowed back his scolding words.

 

At this time, Fade Chen picked up the Life Elixir Wine in the waitress's hand and was about to go back to his seat.

 

Seeing this, Lincoln Xie's eyes showed a hint of anger. He suddenly shouted, "Wait!"

 

"Er.." Fade Chen turned around, looked at Lincoln Xie with a frown, and said coldly, "Why? Is the beating not enough for you?"

 

Lincoln Xie instinctively took a few steps back, with fear in his eyes. But he still shouted, "I ordered this bottle of wine. You can't take it away."

 

After that, Lincoln Xie looked at the waitress.

"You?" Fade Chen glared at Lincoln Xie and then looked at the waiter.

The waitress was nervous at the moment. She did not expect that things would happen to her. Facing a rich man and the other man with a violent look in his eyes, she trembled and felt a little scared.

 

 "I think you should be clear about who ordered this wine!" Fade Chen stared at the waitress and said,

 

"I." The waitress moved her mouth.

Before she could finish, Lincoln Xie, who was next to her, took the stack of notes in his hand and glanced at the waitress. He blinked his eyes and said, "Think. Who ordered this bottle of wine.

 

Looking at the red banknotes, the waitress's eyes suddenly lited up. Thinking that she could get 10,000 yuan by changing her words, she suddenly felt excited and couldn't care about anything else. She nodded directly and said, "This wine is ordered by this customer in the private room."

 

Hearing this, Lincoln Xie smiled proudly. He looked at Fade Chen and said, "Did you hear that? I ordered the wine."

 

After that, Lincoln Xie reached out to get the health preserving wine.

Lincoln Xie didn't care about the Life Elixir Wine. After all, which expensive wine hadn't he taste before. He cared about his own dignity. Therefore, even if he smashed tens of thousands of yuan to the waitress, he would get this Life Elixir Wine to save his dignity.

 

At this moment, Fade Chen couldn't help but change his expression when he looked at the waitress. Before, the waitress disliked serving the poor and loved the rich. Because they ordered cheap dishes, the waitress secretly sneered at them.

 

At that time, although she was dissatisfied, at least the service wasn't bad. So Fade Chen didn't care much about it.

 

But now, she went too far and completely reversed the truth for money, which made Fade Chen angry.

 

Fade Chen stared at the waiter coldly and said in a cold voice, "Are you sure this wine was ordered by him?"

Looking at Fade Chen's fiery eyes, the waitress trembled with fear. But when she saw the red banknotes in Lincoln Xie's hand, she suddenly felt excited. She nodded firmly and said, "The wine was ordered by this guest in the private room."

 

Chapter 143

 

Hearing this, Lincoln Xie showed a proud expression on his face. Then, he turned to look at Fade Chen and snorted, "Did you hear that? I said that this wine is mine, so it must be mine.

 

Fade Chen's eyes darkened and he grunted, "Ask your boss to come over now. I'd like to see how your shop does business. How can they turn the truth upside down."

 

When the waitress heard that Fade Chen wanted to meet with her boss, she was so scared that her whole body trembled and her face showed concern.

 

Seeing this, Lincoln Xie comforted the waitress and said, "Don't worry, let your boss come over. I'm sure that your boss will know what to say when he sees me."

 

The waitress looked hesitant, but at this point, she had no choice but to call the boss over.

 

The owner was a middle-aged man in his forties. He walked over with a smile on his face and handed a cigarette to Fade Chen and Lincoln Xie with a smile.

 

Fade Chen snorted. Instead of taking the boss's cigarette, he looked at him coldly and said, "Boss, I want to know how your restaurant educate your staff. She sent the things we ordered to other customers. Is this the rule of your restaurant?"

 

When the waitress went to call her boss over just now, the boss had already roughly understood the whole story. Hence, he naturally understood the meaning of Fade Chen's words, but at this moment, he purposefully pretended to be silly and said, "Sir, please calm down. We will investigate the matter thoroughly and give you a satisfactory answer."

 

"A satisfactory answer?" Fade Chen said, "Bring us the wine now!"

 

Seeing this, Lincoln Xie immediately said, "This is the wine that I ordered."

 

The boss suddenly looked embarrassed and said, "Dear guests, you all said that the wine was ordered by yourself. This is really...

 

Fade Chen said coldly, "Who ordered the wine? Sir, you may replay the CCTV of the restaurant and see it yourself."

 

Hearing that he wanted to watch the surveillance video, the waitress suddenly turned pale and looked worried. Then, she looked at Lincoln Xie for help.

 

Lincoln Xie's face also changed slightly, but then he showed a look of disdain. He winked at the boss and said in a low voice, "Sir, my name is Lincoln Xie, from the Bay City."

 

Hearing this, the boss's eyes lit up immediately. With an ingratiating look, he approached Lincoln Xie and said, "It's Young Master Xie from the Xie Family in Bay City. It's my honor to have you here."

 

"It's indeed your honor!" Lincoln Xie's face was full of pride. Then he pointed to the Life Elixir Wine and said, "This wine..."

 

How could the boss not understand Lincoln Xie's meaning? He quickly handed over the wine and said, "We, of course, serve the wine that Young Master Xie wants. In order to thank you for coming, this bottle of wine will be free for you."

 

Lincoln Xie picked up the Life Elixir Wine and looked at Fade Chen provocatively. Then he nodded and said proudly, "Yes, I don't care about tens of millions of yuan. What I care about is dignity. If someone shows me respect, I will certainly do the same."

 

With this, Lincoln Xie handed the boss a business card and said, "Call this person later and tell him my name, tell him that I asked the company to cooperate with your restaurant."

 

The boss immediately became ecstatic, holding the business card with both hands, and the smile on his face was wide. He didn't expect that he would win Young Master Xie's favor by sending him a bottle of wine and get the opportunity to cooperate with the Xie family. This was a great opportunity!

 

The boss, who was smiling, winked at the waitress and said in a low voice, "Wendy, I'll raise your salary and give you a bonus later. You did a good job this time!"

 

The waitress burst into laughter and was overjoyed. She was so lucky this time. First, she got 10,000 yuan, and now she was rewarded by the boss. How lucky she was!

 

The two were overjoyed and flattered Lincoln Xie, completely ignoring Fade Chen.

 

Seeing this, Fade Chen lowered his voice and said coldly, "Boss, are you doing business like this?"

 

The boss made up his mind at the moment, so he was not polite to Fade Chen. He directly said in an official tone, "Dear guest, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can mention it to us. We will take it into consideration. If our restaurant can't satisfy you, you can call the department. We welcome the supervisors to come and check on us."

 

Obviously, he had nothing to fear. The boss did not care about offending such poor guests as Fade Chen. After all, compared with the benefits of pleasing Young Master Xie, losing these two guests was not a big deal.

 

"Good, very good, so this is the way your restaurant runs!" Fade Chen's voice was extremely gloomy. Then he took out his mobile phone and said coldly, "Didn't you say that you welcome supervision? Then let's have them here!"

 

"Boss, he seems to be calling to complain!" The waitress said carefully.

The boss curled his lip scornfully and said, "Let him do it have already taken care of the business there. Besides, the standard of our restaurant is high. There is no problem with the real examination.

 

As soon as the boss finished speaking, his mobile phone rang.

He looked at the caller ID and immediately picked up the phone. With a smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Qi, your Life Elixir Wine really sold out well in our restaurant. We had just received it and it sold out in the blink of an eye. If you can give us more wine, we.."

 

Before the boss could finish there was a deep roar from the other side, "Mr. Wang, we will no longer supply the Life Elixir Wine to your restaurant. Don't you think about getting goods from us in the future."

 

The boss was a little stunned. He didn't understand what had happened. How did the Life Elixir Wine's contract that he had just signed suddenly get canceled? He wanted to explain, but the other party hung up the phone.

 

"What's going on?" The boss asked in a low voice, frowning as he put away his phone.

 

But before he could put the phone back in his pocket, it rang again. The boss touched the phone and before he could speak, there was a roar from the other end of the phone. "Wang, is this how you do business?! I warned you not to play any tricks. You can't afford to offend some people. From now on, the cooperation between our company and your restaurant will be suspended, and there will be no more contact!"

 

"Ah!" The boss was dumbfounded.

But then, the clerk rushed over in a panic and shouted, "Boss, bad news, bad news!"

 

"What's wrong? Is the sky falling down?" the boss shouted, resisting his anger.

 

The clerk said, "Boss, the businessmen are here to check. Moreover, the inspection seems to be very strict this time, We have violated several rules and they are going to temporarily close down our restaurant."

"What? How, how is this possible?" The store ow was stunned and did not understand what had happened.

 

Chapter 144

 

The boss was still in a daze, but another shop assistant ran over in a panic and yelled, "Boss, bad news, bad news."

 

The boss was a little numb at the moment. His eyelids twitched and he asked, "What happened again?

 

The clerk said, "Boss, a group of people came to the door of the restaurant. They said they were from Long Enterprise. They surrounded the door of the restaurant and scared the guests. The guests do not dare to come in."

 

"What? Long Enterprise? Isn't that Uncle Wei's man? Why are they here? We've just personally greeted them awhile ago?" The boss said in panic.

 

The clerk did not know why, but said, "Boss, they said that their guests were treated unfairly in your restaurant. They wanted justice. Uncle Wei said it himself."

 

"Uncle Wei's guest! The boss was really stunned. Then, he turned his head with difficulty and looked at Fade Chen.

 

At this time, when he looked at Fade Chen's indifferent smile which reminded him of Fade's statements just now, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart and he was extremely terrified. He forced a smile and said to Fade Chen, "Sir, it is really a huge misunderstanding. I, I can...."

 

Fade Chen waved his hand and interrupted the boss coldly, saying, "There's no need to explain. Your restaurant chose to treat customers like this. It has to bear the corresponding consequences."

 

After that, Fade Chen took Yuri Zhang's hand, paid the bill, and left the restaurant directly.

 

The boss behind him was very disappointed. He almost collapsed to the ground.

 

At this moment, Lincoln Xie, who was next to him, saw this and was puzzled. He said to the boss, "Boss, isn't he just a kid? What threat does he have to you? When you cooperate with our Xie Family, we can guarantee that your restaurant business will be prosperous."

 

"That bastard dared to attack me, I will let him pay the price!" Lincoln Xie looked at Fade Chen as he left and snorted.

 

"You are from Long City. Don't you know who I have just offended? That is Uncle Wei's distinguished guest, my business will be screwed. How can I cooperate with you now?" The restaurant boss was very regretful. This time, in order to please Young Master Xie, he had offended a big shot. This was really a trouble."

 

However, the boss did not dare to say these words in front of Lincoln Xie, so he could only nod and thank him for his generosity.

 

Lincoln Xie didn't want to eat anymore so he left without paying the bill. Seeing this, the boss's face turned gloomy and he was upset, almost to the verge of crying.

 

He turned around angrily and immediately saw the waitress standing next to him in a daze.

 

Suddenly, the boss was angry and scolded the waitress angrily, "Have you got eyes? I have warned you many times not to judge people by their looks. But now you have offended a big shot, and my restaurant is going to be ruined. Can you bear the responsibility?"

 

"Boss, I... Young Master Xie just said, I.." The waitress still wanted to defend herself, hoping that the boss would not fire her for Young Master Xie's sake.

 

However, when the boss heard the name of Young Master Xie, he was even angrier. He directly waved his hand and shouted, "Get out, get out of here. You are fired."

 

The waitress was stunned and reluctantly walked to the door.

However, after a few steps, the shopkeeper behind him suddenly shouted, "Stop!"

 

The waitress suddenly had an idea. She thought to herself, "Did Young Master Xie's words work just now? The boss wants me to stay!"

 

However, just as she was fantasizing, the boss walked over with a cold face and snatched the 10,000 yuan in her arms. He said coldly, "My restaurant is going to closed down, and you have a great responsibility. This 10,000 yuan will be your compensation to the shop."

 

"No, the money is mine, I.." The waitress still wanted to explain, but the boss waved his hand and called the security guard. She was scared and dared not say anything more. She lowered her head and walked out of the restaurant in disgrace.

 

As soon as she came out of the restaurant, she was shocked when she saw dozens of men with dragon tattoos at the door. She was terrified and said, "Who on earth is that guy just now? He actually has such great power. He closed down our boss' shop with just a phone call, he is not even afraid of Young Master Xie. If I had been kind to him just now, I wouldn't have offended him, I might have.."

 

For a moment, the waitress's heart was full of regret.

At the same time, Lincoln Xie, who left the restaurant, suddenly felt unhappy when he thought of the slap by Fade Chen. He took out his mobile phone and made a phone call, saying, "Young Master Zhang, I am Lincoln. I have something to ask you to help me. Do you know a guy, he..."

 

Half an hour later, Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu appeared in a western restaurant simultaneously. Lincoln Xie was sitting opposite them.

 

As the rich young masters in Bay City, they certainly knew Lincoln Xie's identity. They knew that this young masters is the son of the Xie family from Long City. Although Lincoln Xie was not a real young master in the Xie family, the Xie family was much more powerful than the Zhang family and the Zhu family. Therefore, Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu were very respectful towards Lincoln Xie, even with a hint of flattery.

 

Lincoln Xie complained about what he had just encountered in the restaurant to Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu and asked them to investigate who the guy was. After all, he was beaten in Bay City, so he had to find out his identity.

 

Hearing Lincoln Xie's description, Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu didn't need to ask people to investigate. They had already guessed the identity of the man.

 

Suddenly, the two looked at each other and couldn't help smiling bitterly. They couldn't say anything.

 

The losses they suffered in Fade Chen's hands were much more than that of Lincoln Xie. In addition, in recent days, their companies had lost a lot of business under the joint attack of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc and the Galaxy Plaza Enterprise, which made the elders in the family very dissatisfied with them.

 

It was all because they offended Fade Chen that they started the series of revenge.

 

Thinking of this, the two of them was too heartbroken to cry.

Lincoln Xie looked at their expressions and was confused. He frowned and said, "Why? Is that guy very powerful? You guys can't even deal with him?

 

Leonard Zhu nodded and wanted to speak out Fade Chen's identity. He also advised Lincoln Xie not to make trouble with this guy because those who got into trouble for him would eventually lead to greater troubles.

 

But just as Leonard Zhu was about to speak, Howard Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up. He thought of something, so he secretly pulled the corner of Leonard Zhu's clothes under the table. 

Leonard Zhu was a little confused, but he still closed his mouth in time. He just sighed and did not speak.

 

Chapter 145

 

Seeing this, Lincoln Xie became more curious and said, "Master Zhang, Master Zhu, why? Is that guy so powerful that you are so afraid to mention anything?"

 

Leonard Zhu did not understand Howard Zhang's meaning, so he kept quiet and he looked at Howard Zhang.

 

Howard Zhang sighed and said to Lincoln Xie, "Master Xie, in fact, that guy is powerful, but not that powerful!"

 

The descriptive words made Lincoln Xie even more curious and puzzled. He slammed the table and said, "Master Zhang, just tell me whatever it is. I'd like to see how powerful that kid is. Our Xie family has never been afraid of a person from a small town."

 

Howard Zhang's eyes glimmered, and then he stated, "Master Xie, since you have promised, I will go all out and tell you the truth."

 

Then, Howard Zhang said, "Master Xie, that fella's name is Fade Chen. A few months ago, he appeared in our lives, I don't know where he came from. I also don't know why he has a relationship with Quin Lin."

 

"Later, that guy concocted some kind of Life Elixir Wine at the retirement banquet for Mr. Wu, our former mayor of Bay City. Suddenly, he became famous among the citizens here. Countless people, from the rich and powerful, competed against each other to buy the Life Elixir Wine, but the supply was very limited. With the Life Elixir Wine, he got to know many elites in Bay City. In the whole of Bay City, you can regard him as someone of great influence."

 

"Isn't it just a bottle of wine? Is it really that powerful?"

Lincoln Xie didn't believe it.

 

Hearing Howard Zhang's words, Leonard Zhu immediately realized something and nodded at Howard Zhang. Then, he immediately turned to Lincoln Xie and explained, Master Xie, the Life Elixir Wine is indeed something extraordinary. Those who have tasted it couldn't get enough of it. For the sake of the elixir, rich and influential people like Mr. Wu have developed a very good relationship with Fade Chen."

 

"It's also because of this, that Fade Chen has become more and more arrogant recently. He has boldly declared that he has no opponent in Bay City and no one dares to touch him. Even the business of my family and Master Zhang's family has been crunched by that kid and Quin Lin. But because of those connections, we dare not do anything to him! Alas!"

 

Lincoln Xie frowned upon hearing that, "Is it really that amazing? He became the master of Bay City with just that bottle of wine?"

 

Howard Zhang immediately said, "Master Xie, you may not know this but the wine is really good. Moreover, Fade Chen's business is growing exponentially. Not only in Bay City, but he's ready to penetrate the surrounding urban areas, including other districts."

 

Lincoln Xie's brows furrowed and the muscles on his face twitched.

Howard Zhang immediately winked knowingly at Leonard Zhu.

Leonard Zhu understood and immediately continued to exaggerate, "Fade Chen boasted that within a year, his elixir would break through Bay City and occupy 80% of the market in the district capital. In three years, it will become the biggest wine company in the south. In the beginning, we all thought he was talking nonsense, but now it seems that it could really be possible with the interpersonal connections he has!"

 

Lincoln Xie's face darkened and his hands on the table clenched into fists.

Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu exchanged a satisfactory smile.

The two of them knew that the Xie Family had a large business empire and involved in a lot of industries. Amongst them, Lincoln Xie's father was in charge of the alcohol business. The Xie family's beverage business occupied 70% of the market share in the district capital, an absolute market leader.

 

The two deliberately exaggerated the significant effects of Fade Chen's Life Elixir Wine and made up all kinds of bold stories in order to give pressure to Lincoln Xie, so that he would secretly develop hostility towards Fade Chen.

 

Now, looking at Lincoln Xie's expression, they knew that their plan had worked.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Lincoln Xie looked up at them and said, "I would really like to have a look at the so-called powerful Life Elixir Wine."

 

Howard Zhang had been prepared. He snapped his fingers and asked the waiter to bring him a bottle of the elixir.

 

Leonard Zhu took the initiative to pour Lincoln Xie a glass of the wine. When the slightly yellowish wine was poured out, a whiff of fruity fragrance filled the air. Lincoln Xie's eyebrows twitched in surprise.

 

"Master Xie, please!" Leonard Zhu and Howard Zhang raised their glasses for toast.

 

Lincoln Xie nodded and took a sip of the wine. Instantly, he felt a cooling liquid slipping down his throat all the way to his stomach. Then he felt refreshed as if all his limbs and bones had been cleansed. The tiredness of his body suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly energized.

 

"This wine..." Lincoln Xie's eyes lit up and then he downed the glass of wine in a go.

 

Subsequently, he poured himself another glass of the Life Elixir Wine and drank it up.

Just like that, a small bottle of wine was finished in no time.

At this time, Lincoln Xie still hadn't had enough, he put the wine glass on the table and sighed, "This wine is amazing. It tastes very refreshing and delicious, and it rejuvenates the mind and strengthens the body. No wonder the rich and powerful in Bay City are so addicted to it!"

 

Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu looked at each other and then sighed.

 

"That's right. With such amazing wine, other wine and even beverage companies won't stand a chance. I'm afraid that Fade Chen will soon take over the beverage market in Bay City"

 

"Not only in Bay City, but some wealthy people in the surrounding cities who heard about the wine, have also come here to buy the wine."

 

Then they looked at Lincoln Xie. As expected, Lincoln Xie's face changed, as if thinking about something.

 

A few seconds later, Lincoln Xie said, "Master Zhang, Master Zhu. Although this wine is amazing, it shouldn't be a problem for you two to crack the concoction with your wealth and then sell the goods to take over the market!"

 

What Lincoln Xie meant was to test the composition of the liquid and creat a copycat.

 

Truly a man from a family of wine business to have thought of this method in an instance.

 

Howard Zhang turned and sighed, "We have also thought of this method and have sent people to try to do it, but all had failed in the end. Later, after inquiring about it, we learned that the exclusive formula of this elixir seemed to have come from an elusive master. The composition is very unique and can't be replicated. Fade Chen seems to be the only one who has the company's formula. So, there isn't a way!"

 

"Can't be cracked, only one formula!" Lincoln Xie pondered over these words.

Then, he made an excuse to go to the bathroom. He took out his mobile phone and called the elders of the family, "Dad, I am in Bay City. I have discovered a huge business. As long as our company can take down this business, we can absolutely..."

 

Chapter 146

 

One day later, a luxury suite on the top floor of a high-end hotel in Bay City.

Lincoln Xie sat on the sofa with a man in his forties, reading a pile of documents on the table.

"Uncle, what did I say. This Life Elixir Wine is definitely a big business!" Lincoln Xie said to the man sitting opposite him.

 

The man was dressed in a working suit and leather shoes, wearing a pair of glasses with his hair neatly combed. He looked very professional.

 

After hearing from Lincoln Xie, he nodded and continued, "After my investigation, this elixir is indeed good. But the market value of the wine is not as exaggerated as what Howard Zhang and Leonard Zhu had told you. It can even be said that the market share of health elixir in Bay City is almost negligible."

 

Lincoln Xie waved his hand indifferently and said, "Uncle, these are beside the point. The most important thing is that this elixir is indeed good stuff. If mass produced, it will definitely dominate the market immediately."

 

Lincoln Xie's uncle, however, was relatively calm. He shook his head and said, "According to the information gathered, the Life Elixir Wine is not so easy to produce on a large scale. Otherwise, Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc would have already entered the wine industry on a massive scale, instead of having only a small workshop like now."

 

Lincoln Xie begged to defer, "That's because they can't do it on a large scale. Xie Family is in the wine business. There's no problem for us to do it on a large scale."

 

"Besides, even if mass production is difficult, we can still reap benefits from a small-scale production. Firstly, we can leverage on this health elixir to make friends with the rich and powerful and build valuable interpersonal relationships; Secondly, we can brand this health elixir as the high-end wine of Xie Family's wine business, enhance our brand value and penetrate the domestic and even the international market."

 

Lincoln Xie's inception had convinced Third Uncle. He nodded and said, "Your analysis is correct. The health elixir is really good. Now the problem is how to make it ours!"

 

"How? With money. I don't believe that anyone can refuse the temptation of money"Lincoln Xie said nonchalantly.

 

However, Third Uncle disagreed. "According to information, Fade Chen's current wife is Quin Lin of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, and the Life Elixir Wine workshop is also under the company. The company has a market value of a few billions, they don't lack money."

 

Hearing this, Lincoln Xie couldn't help frowning and said with disapproval, "With Xie Family's reputation and status in the wine industry, as long as we request, I don't think they can refuse?"

 

Uncle said, "According to previous data, Xie Family's success rate for acquiring similar wine companies is eighty seven percent. But there are still some unsuccessful cases, therefore I can't judge this matter."

 

Lincoln Xie said, "Since we can't judge, let's give it a try. Tomorrow, I will visit the company. I want to see the look on Fade Chen's face when I buy his business. Let's see how he can still be arrogant in front of me when he lost his wine business!"

 

At this point, Lincoln Xie gnashed his teeth in resentment

The next day, Fade Chen went to work in the medical room as usual. It was lunchtime. Fade Chen packed up the medicine in the pharmacy and was ready to go to the canteen for lunch.

 

But just then, Fade Chen received a call from the president's office to inform him that President Lin was asking for him.

 

"Does my darling miss me too much and wants to have lunch together? Otherwise, she won't call for me at this hour right?" Fade Chen thought. He whistled gently and went to the president's office.

 

Fade Chen knocked at the door and said on top of his voice, "Dear, I'm here." Then he pushed the door open.

 

However, when he saw another person sitting in the office, Fade Chen narrowed his vision and put on his serious look. He said, "President Lin, I'm here!"

 

Quin Lin nodded at Fade Chen and then introduced, "Fade Chen, this is Manager Lincoln Xie of the Xie Family's wine business in the district capital of Long City."

 

"Manager Xie, this is Fade Chen, the head of our company's Life Elixir Wine."

 

At this moment, Fade Chen finally saw the person clearly, he immediately frowned and looked displeased. "It's you?"

 

It was Lincoln Xie, the person he had a conflict with at the restaurant the other day.

 

Lincoln Xie's expression changed too when he saw Fade Chen. His eyes flashed with anger, but he was quick to suppress the emotion.

 

Quin Lin signaled for Fade Chen to sit down and then said to Lincoln Xie. "Manager Xie can discuss with Fade Chen about the Life Elixir Wine. He is in full charge of this matter.

 

"In full charge" Lincoln Xie was slightly surprised, but then he resumed his confident and arrogant smile.

 

He scrutinized Fade Chen from head to toe, then cocked a brow and said, "Since Mr. Chen is the person in charge of the elixir, I won't beat around the bush."

 

"It's best to speak frankly," Fade Chen said flatly.

 

Lincoln Xie leaned forward slightly, looked at Fade Chen in the eyes and said, "Xie Family's wine industry wants to buy your Life Elixir Wine workshop and the formula. The offer price is two million yuan. Here is the agreement. Please sign it!"

 

Fade Chen looked at the agreement in front of Lincoln Xie and sneered, "Manager Xie, are you kidding me? Two million yuan, that's not even enough to build my workshop!"

 

Lincoln Xie curled his lips and said, "Isn't it just money? Xie family has plenty. I can forgo the workshop. I just want the formula, please name your price!"

 

"Don't want the workshop but just the formula. What a wishful thinking, Manager Xie!" Fade Chen mocked. "But Manager Xie seems to make a mistake. I've never said that I would sell my wine's formula."

 

Lincoln Xie's voice sank. He looked at Fade Chen and said, "How dare you not sell it to me? Mr. Chen, please take a close look at this purchase agreement signed by Xie family, the Xie's Wine Enterprise in the district capital."

 

"Xie Family? Are they powerful? I've never heard of them." Fade Chen shot a glance at Lincoln Xie and leaned back on the sofa.

 

"Fade Chen!" Lincoln Xie's eyes turned cold and anger flashed in his eyes. He said in a low voice, "I urge you to think carefully, the consequences of going head-on with our family's wine business. I can tell you that without the support of my family, your Life Elixir Wine will be crushed."

 

"So what? I don't care!" Fade Chen said casually. He really didn't care about the wine. After all, it was just a fruity wine he had leisurely created. He still had thousands of similar wine ideas in his head. 

Lincoln Xie didn't expect to see Fade Chen with this attitude. He was noticeably annoyed. He glanced at Quin Lin and then said to Fade Chen, "Mr. Chen, you don't care, but I don't know if President Lin will care. My family has some businesses in the cosmetic industry. It's a good opportunity."

 

Chapter 147

 

This was obviously a threat. Quin Lin's expression turned cold.

As for Fade Chen, his face darkened instantly. He glanced at Lincoln Xie coldly and said, "Are you threatening me?"

 

Fade Chen's cold eyes sent a shiver down Lincoln Xie's back.

However, at the thought of the huge benefits after getting the Life Elixir Wine's formula, Lincoln Xie let out a cough and said in a low voice, "I'm not threatening you. I just hope you can share the formula to my family. I think this is the best outcome. It's a win-win situation for both sides. I hope you can consider it carefully."

 

"Win- win?" Fade Chen snapped, "You're the only one winning!"

As the manager of Xie's Wine Enterprise, Lincoln Xie honestly didn't expect such an outcome. He was a little agitated and said, "President Lin, I'd like you to think about my offer."

 

Quin Lin replied lightly, "I will!"

Even though Quin Lin said yes, her expression showed that she had no interest to continue the discussion. Instead, she stretched out her hand and gestured, "It's lunchtime time. Our company provides fixed meals to the employees, unfortunately, we did not prepare for you. Manager Xie, see you!

 

She was chasing him away!

Anger rose as Lincoln Xie slammed his palm on the table, and stood up as if he was going to fight.

 

However, just as he stood up, Fade Chen slightly pinched a teacup with two fingers and crushed it. Then he looked at Lincoln Xie and expressed coldly, "Manager Xie, do you want me to see you to the door?"

 

Lincoln Xie trembled when he saw the fragments of the teacup on the ground. He held back his anger and turned around to leave.

 

The furious Lincoln Xie stormed out of the building of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. He took out his phone and called his third uncle, Watson Xie. "Uncle Watson, I just came out of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. Fade Chen and Quin Lin can't see what's good for them, they refused my offer."

 

"I had represented the Xie Family when making the offer but they had the guts to refuse me. It's..." Lincoln Xie gnashed his teeth and his face was full of anger.

 

However, Watson Xie on the other side of the phone seemed to be much calmer. "I know. According to the information, we have gathered, based on Fade Chen and Quin Lin's personalities, the possibility of them rejecting the acquisition is 70 percent, this is expected."

 

Although he was accustomed to his uncle's calm demeanor, Lincoln Xie couldn't help but felt annoyed when he heard this. He continued to complain, "Uncle Watson, I was humiliated at Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc but you still have the mood to say such things."

 

Upon hearing his nephew's complaint, Watson Xie's tone changed slightly and said, "Lincoln, you don't have to be angry. Xie family has never failed to buy a company."

 

Lincoln Xie beamed. He recalled his third uncle's various achievements and dealings since he took office. He rejoiced and said, "Uncle Watson do you have other plans?"

 

After all, his Uncle Watson had assisted his father, Gordon Xie, in all sorts of business dealings in the past ten years. Amongst them, there were several very complicated and troublesome negotiations, of which were on the verge of failing.

 

But in the end, his Uncle Watson, who was as calm as a computer, successfully held down these tough negotiations.

 

This time, Lincoln Xie still had the confidence in his uncle's ability to face a small health elixir company in Bay City.

 

Watson Xie did not explain in details, but said calmly, "When you had gone to negotiate, I had already launched a backup plan. It is about time. There will soon be news. Come back and wait for the good news!"

 

Lincoln Xie didn't expect that his uncle had already prepared other plans. He was instantly pleased and grinning from ear to ear.

 

Hanging up the phone, he looked up at the building of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. He gnashed his teeth and said coldly, Fade Chen, Quin Lin. Just wait and see. By then, will make you kneel in front of me and beg me to buy your company."

 

When Lincoln Xie left, Fade Chen remained in the president's office. He looked at his wife behind the desk and said with a smile, "Dear, you won't blame me for refusing this acquisition right! After all, this is the Xie family, the giant of the wine industry. I'm afraid my refusal will provoke them."

 

Quin Lin said coolly, "The value of the Life Elixir Wine is far more than two million yuan!"

 

"Moreover, ever since I took over the Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, I've encountered a lot of troubles. I've always been someone who deals with the trouble directly and not the other way around. The threat of the Xie family is not worth mentioning." Although Quin Lin said this casually, but there was a note of pride and ferocity of a commander in her words. Fade Chen was surprised and stared fixedly at his wife.

 

Quin Lin noticed that Fade Chen had been staring at her. She furrowed her brows and asked, "What are you staring at?"

 

Fade Chen smiled and confessed, "Staring at a beautiful woman!"

Quin Lin blushed then immediately regained composure. "Boring!"

"It's time to get off work. I'm going to have lunch." Quin Lin got up.

Fade Chen immediately followed her and smiled, "Dear, Ill go with you!"

Quin Lin immediately stopped on her track and said, "I've told you that we're just colleagues in the company."

 

Fade Chen pouted and muttered, "Okay, I won't sit with you, dear."

They came into the canteen one after another. Quin Lin took her dishes and went to the dining hall to have her meal. On the other hand, Fade Chen found a seat where he could see Quin Lin, took a plate full of meat dishes, and was ready to devour them.

 

But just as Fade Chen was about to start eating, a call suddenly buzzed on Fade Chen's phone.

 

Fade Chen peered at the phone number. It was from a technical director of the Life Elixir Wine workshop. He was curious and answered the phone.

 

On the other side of the phone came the voice of the technical director. "Hello, President Chen. May I ask if Director Qi is in the head office?"

 

"Jordan Qi? He's not here! What's wrong?" Fade Chen asked, feeling a little uneasy.

 

The technical director was anxious. He said, "President Chen, here's the thing. At 10 o'clock this morning, Director Qi was patrolling the production situation in the workshop. But at that time, there was a person who said that he had something to discuss with Director Qi, so he was called out."

"We weren't too concerned in the beginning. But until noon, we went out but didn't see Director Qi. We called him but, no one answer the phone. I thought he went to the head office, so I called to ask President Chen."

 

Chapter 148

 

"Jordan Qi is missing!" Fade Chen's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling, but he didn't say much. "Jordan Qi may have met something urgent. Let me contact him. Director Huang, please help take care of the workshop."

 

"Okay, President Chen!" The technical director hung up the phone.

Fade Chen had no time to finish his meal. He immediately dialled Jordan Qi's number, but no one answered. Then he dialled Housekeeper Wong's number. Again, Housekeeper Wong had no news about Jordan Qi.

 

After several calls, there was still no trace of Jordan Qi. Fade Chen felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

 

After thinking for a while, Fade Chen dialled Uncle Long's number and asked him to call his brothers in the gang to keep an eye on Jordan Qi's whereabouts.

 

At the same time, Fade Chen rushed straight into the dining hall towards Quin Lin.

 

Quin Lin frowned and wanted to remind Fade Chen. But when she saw Fade Chen's serious expression, her heart skipped a beat. She put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked, "What's wrong?"

 

Fade Chen said, "I couldn't reach Jordan Qi. He was called out from the workshop two hours ago, and then there was no news of him ever since."

 

Quin Lin searched in her mind quickly. She immediately took out her mobile phone and informed the HR department of the company to call the police and at the same time, retrieve the surveillance videos of the workshop and the roadside for investigation.

 

After arranging these things, Quin Lin looked at Fade Chen and asked, "Do you have any suspect in mind?"

 

In front of his smart wife, Fade Chen had no reason to hide anything. He nodded and said, "Yes, the Xie family."

 

Quin Lin's expression tweaked slightly, but she did not show too much surprise. Instead, she looked at Fade Chen and said, "To send someone to investigate the background of the Xie family!"

 

"Okay!" Fade Chen nodded, then turned around and said, "I'll go out and look for him. You take care."

 

"Okay!" Quin Lin replied. She looked at Fade Chen's back as he proceeded downstairs. She couldn't help but said softly, "You too, be careful."

 

Fade Chen drove away from Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc and headed to the Life Elixir Wine workshop.

 

On the way, Quin Lin called and explained that she had found some information about the Xie family. Lincoln Xie's third uncle, Watson Xie, the vice president of the Xie's Wine Enterprise, had come to Bay City yesterday.

 

Watson Xie had always been known for his calmness and boldness. He was usually rigorous and careful. He would do a lot of research and make the best final decision based on the data he collected.

 

Additionally, the great success of more than a decade made him somewhat stubborn. He would not allow himself to fail. Especially in recent years, in order to gain success in business negotiations, or more so to maintain his personal pride and honor, he would use unscrupulous means.

 

He even began to use illegal methods to assist the business negotiation, and was brought to court several times. However, because of the lack of evidence, these cases could not be established and were eventually dismissed.

 

Watson Xie's visit to Bay City this time probably had something to do with the acquisition of the wine.

 

After hearing the news, Fade Chen was even more convinced that this matter had something to do with the Xie family. He immediately contacted Uncle Long and sent Watson Xie's information to him, asking the gang brothers to pay more attention to this person.

 

Fade Chen arrived at the health elixir workshop. Director Huang and the others had received the news long ago. They retrieved the surveillance video of Jordan Qi in the workshop, and handed it to Fade Chen.

 

Fade Chen checked the surveillance video and soon found that a man in his 30s was the one who asked Jordan Qi to go out. The man was wearing a loose windbreaker with a hat on his head, which covered most of his face. Fade Chen couldn't make out his face.

 

However, Fade Chen could tell from the man's movement and the gesture of his hands and feet, that he was a martial arts practitioner with good skills. He might be at the middle stage of Yellow Level.

 

A master of middle stage Yellow Level, disappeared with the powerless Jordan Qi. The situation needed no futher explanation.

 

At this time, a message came from Uncle Long saying that a few of his fellows had found Watson Xie two hours ago, sitting inside a bakery van and was driving towards the Bay City's north suburbs areas.

 

That area used to be Bay City's old steel factories area. Later, many small factories closed down due to environmental pollution. The factories that were left behind were gradually abandoned and became home to the homeless people and illegal immigrants.

 

This news had absolutely ascertained Fade Chen's suspicion. He was sure that the Xie family, upon failing the acquisition negotiation for the health elixir, had kidnapped Jordan Qi to grind him for the formula.

 

Fade Chen was furious just thinking of that. He said through gritted teeth, "Xie Family, you'd better make sure Jordan Qi is ok. Otherwise, I will make you pay a heavy price."

 

Then, Fade Chen quickly drove towards the direction of the suburbs at the northern part of Bay City.

 

Just as Fade Chen left the city center, in the hotel where Lincoln Xie was staying, he received a message from his subordinate. With a smug smile on his face, he looked at the stack of documents on the table and said, "Uncle Watson, you are really amazing. Uncle had predicted Fade Chen's whereabouts."

 

"Now, it's time for the next step.' Lincoln Xie smiled to himself.

He took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. "Master Zhang, it's me, Lincoln Xie!"

 

"Master Zhang! I've been in Bay City these few days and I heard a piece of news. I heard that Master Zhang was engaged to President Lin of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. But now the Chen boy has become President Lin's husband, this..."

 

The person on the other end of the phone was Howard Zhang. He was a little surprised to receive a call from Lincoln Xie. He had wanted to pacify him, but didn't expect that Lincoln Xie would mention his engagement with Quin Lin.

 

Suddenly, Howard Zhang was a little embarrassed. After all, his engagement with Quin Lin was known all over Bay City However, it was ruined by Fade Chen who showed up halfway. Fade Chen not only had Quin Lin's hands but his presence was a huge slap in the face for Howard Zhang.

 

This matter almost made Howard Zhang a laughing stock in the whole of Bay City. Therefore, during this period, almost no one dared to mention anything about this engagement in front of Howard Zhang.

 

"Master Xie, I don't want to talk about this." Howard Zhang said glumly.

Lincoln Xie chuckled a little and said, "Don't be angry, Master Zhang. I don't mean to tease at you. On the contrary, I called you this time because I have a good news to tell you about your engagement."

 

"Good news?" Howard Zhang was somewhat confused yet curious.

 

Lincoln Xie said smiling, "I tell you, Fade Chen has just left Quin Lin's side. It's very likely that he won't come back this time!"

 

Chapter 149

 

"Won't come back!" Howard Zhang's heart raced. He was shocked and excited, "Master Xie, do you mean that your family had sent someone..."

 

Lincoln Xie interrupted Howard Zhang with a laugh, "My family didn't do anything. It's just some news I heard."

 

"Really?" Howard Zhang was still sceptical about this whole situation. "Fade Chen is not an ordinary person. He is a martial arts practitioner and he is very talented at it."

 

Lincoln Xie didn't care much about this. After all, this was his Uncle Watson's plan. He believed that his uncle would not give Fade Chen a chance to escape.

 

So he laughed and said, "No matter how powerful he is, he can't avoid this time! Moreover, my Uncle Watson made his move this time."

 

"Your uncle Watson Xie? Howard Zhang was shocked and suddenly thought of something. "I..."

 

Lincoln Xie smiled confidently and said, "You know what to do the next, Master Zhang. I believe there's no need for me to say much. You will definitely understand it."

 

Howard Zhang was silent for a few seconds, unable to hide his excitement, he said, "Thank you for telling me the news. I am very grateful."

 

Lincoln Xie smiled and said, "You don't have to thank me. Just remember to invite me to the wedding of you and President Lin!" 

 

Howard Zhang seemed to have thought of the exciting things that were to happen and said excitedly, " Master Xie, it's my honour to have you at my wedding."

 

"Okay. I believe that you will be busy from now on." Lincoln Xie commented.

 

"Well, thank you so much!" Howard Zhang hung up the phone, and his whole face lit up with excitement. He immediately called his father, Leonard Zhu, Horace Wan, and other buddies.

 

In no time, the entire rich society in Bay City began to hype up with Howard Zhang's actions.

 

At this time, Fade Chen, who had already driven to the suburb, did not know the happenings in the city.

 

After parking the car in front of a steel factory, Fade Chen took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to the old man nearby. Then he began to enquire the news about Watson Xie and Jordan Qi.

 

When the old man said he didn't know, Fade Chen decisively gave the whole pack of cigarettes to him and asked him to take him to the other steel factories for questioning.

 

It didn't take long for the old man and Fade Chen to obtain the news when they reached the last steel factory. A woman who was scavenging nearby said that she saw them and saw that the van continued to head north.

 

Fade Chen was overjoyed. He took out a few hundreds of notes as a token of appreciation to the woman and the old man. Then he drove towards the north and continued to chase after them.

 

After passing the steel factory area, there were a few small villages along the road. After inquiring the folks at the road side of the village and confirming that the bakery van continued to head north, Fade Chen followed suit.

 

He continued to drive for three or four hours. Then Fade Chen arrived at the border of Bay City.

 

The area was a stretch of mountains. The mountains were not tall, but they stretched for several kilometres. The trees were also flourishing. Additionally, there was no proper road to the village. Fade Chen's car could not go further, so he had to get out of the car and go on foot.

 

After walking for another half an hour, Fade Chen had entered the mountain area.

Along the way, he found trails of footprints and vehicle.

Therefore, Fade Chen became more certain and chased after them. Arriving at a hill, Fade Chen found the alleged bakery van. No one was in the van. After examining the van, and judging from their traces, they couldn't be far.

 

It seemed that they had driven the van forcibly into the mountainous area, however, because the road conditions were really bad, the car finally broke down at the mountain pass.

 

And judging from the traces left behind, it was obvious that they had went into the mountain pass.

 

This time, Fade Chen was even angrier. Jordan Qi was taken to such an inaccessible place. It seemed that the man not only wanted to force Jordan to give away the formula of the elixir wine, but also wanted to kill him.

 

"If they really harm Jordan Qi, I want them all to die together." Fade Chen gritted his teeth and hastened his pace, but his footsteps were very light as he entered into the mountains.

 

By the time Fade Chen entered the mountains, the sky was already completely dark. To make the situation even more challenging, it began to rain heavily and the rain-drenched Fade Chen's clothes.

 

It was pitch dark all around, and with the drizzling rain, Fade Chen, who came out in a hurry, was instantly drenched. Moreover, the rain had easily erased the traces of the other party, making it difficult for him to track them down.

 

However, these difficulties were nothing to Fade Chen. Fade Chen continued to track for more than half an hour. Looking at the time on his mobile phone, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

 

Looking at the current situation, he knew that he couldn't return today. So Fade Chen decided to make a phone call to Quin Lin to report his safety and exchange the latest news.

 

But as soon as he called, he realized that there was no signal in the mountain area.

 

Fade Chen put the phone back into his pocket helplessly and continued to chase.

 

At the same time, night fell in the office building of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc in Bay City. Almost all the employees had gone off work. But Quin Lin's president's office was still well lit.

 

Quin Lin dialed Fade Chen's number again, but there was still no answer tone. Quin Lin put down her phone and stared at the message on the computer screen. Her eyes flickered. She bit her lips and murmured, "Fade Chen, did, did they really catch you?"

 

Thinking of this, Quin Lin shook her head. She took out her mobile phone and called Lily Wei to contact Jimmy Wei in order to help track down news of Fade Chen.

 

When Jimmy Wei got the news, he was also very surprised. He immediately told Quin Lin about his communications with Fade Chen and that Fade Chen had ventured north to track down the kidnapper. Later, when he tried to reach Fade Chen, he couldn't get in touch with him anymore.

 

Jimmy Wei mobilized his people, and the relevant news began to pour in.

 

Fade Chen had chased after them to the north. Someone had seen him in the steel factory, someone had seen him in the village, someone had seen him entering the mountains, someone had discovered his car. There was a bullet hole on the car, and there was blood in the car. Then, there was no more news.

 

These messages flooded into Quin Lin's mind one after another, and made the once calm Quin Lin now agitated.

 

Then one message made her was even more annoyed and angry. Her temper sparked and she smashed the cup on the floor.

 

Because the message on the computer said, "Fade Chen is in our hands. If you want him to live, then fulfil our engagement." The signature was Howard Zhang's name. 

"Howard Zhang, you..." Quin Lin gritted her teeth, and her expression twisted with anger.

 

Chapter 150

 

In the mountains of the northern Suburbs, the night was getting darker, and the rain was getting heavier.

 

The initial drizzling rain had now become a pouring rain.

Everything in the mountain was drenched in rain. The trails Fade Chen had been tracking were being washed off and nowhere in sight due to the heavy pouring rain.

 

Fade Chen looked up at the inky night, and then looked down at the intersection ahead, he was a little anxious. He had lost track of the trail and now he couldn't tell which route the kidnapper had taken Jordan Qi to.

 

For a moment, Fade Chen felt irritated and his eyes burned with anger.

 

Suddenly, a loud scream rang into the rainy night, Fade Chen jumped. Once he confirmed the direction of the sound, he immediately rushed to the road on the left.

 

The heavy rain didn't affect Fade Chen's speed. Instead, the sound of the rain helped Fade Chen muffled his movement.

 

After walking along the road for about 20 minutes, Fade Chen suddenly stopped and narrowed his eyes. Between the two big trees in front of him, a wooden house came into sight. He could see the lights inside the wooden house flickering.

 

"Here!" Fade Chen's heart raced and he trod more carefully. He slowly approached the wooden house.

 

The sound of the rain and thunders had completely muffled Fade Chen's movement. In front of the wooden house stood a man in his early twenties, holding a flashlight in his hand, vigilantly scanning the situation on the road. It seemed that he was on guard.

 

Worrying about Jordan Qi's safety, Fade Chen chose not to charge directly, but sneaked to the back of the wooden house quietly.

 

There were no windows on the back of the house, but the wooden house in the mountain was obviously left in a dilapidated state for a long time. There were a lot of finger sized cracks on the wooden board. When Fade Chen approached, he could see the situation inside clearly.

 

On the left side of the door was a broken wooden bed, and on the right was a pile of wood and other tools. Besides the woodpile was a stove made of a simple iron bucket. This house seemed to be the shelter for forest ranger who occasionally came to rest.

 

At this moment, a lot of wood was added to the stove and it was burning fiercely. Two men in their thirties were sitting around the stove.

 

In the distance, there was a thin figure all tied up with hemp rope on the broken wooden bed. He was lying sideway on the wooden bed. Although Fade couldn't see his face clearly, judging from his figure, he should be Jordan Qi.

 

At this time, a man who was building fire on the stove turned his head and looked at the direction of the wooden bed. He said, "Jordan Qi, I know you are the director of the Life Elixir Wine workshop. Tell us the formula of the wine and we will release you immediately. The two million yuan cash we have promised you will be yours. How about that?"

 

Jordan Qi, who was lying on the bed grunted and shifted his body. Then he said in a hoarse voice, "Not to mention the fact that I don't have the formula. Even if I do, you won't get the formula from me. I won't betray Fade Chen. He is my friend."

 

"Friend?" The man laughed derisively. "Jordan Qi, Fade Chen is Quin Lin's husband. His net worth is more than a billion yuan. He doesn't even care about that small workshop. Do you think it's worthy for you to lose your life because of this few millions?"

 

Jordan Qi was silent for a while and then he continued, "No matter what you say, I don't have the formula you want anyway."

 

The man was impatient. He got up and walked over, gave Jordan Qi a punch, which made him groaned. Then, the man took out his mobile phone and said, "Call Fade Chen and tell him that you want to know the formula."

 

"No, I won't call!" Jordan Qi shouted.

"No!" The man laughed grimly, "Do you think we brought you to the mountain just to frighten you? Let me tell you if Fade Chen doesn't hand over the formula, be prepared to rot in the mountain."

 

"People rarely come here. Even if you die here, i'm afraid no one could find you," the man said.

 

Jordan Qi said, "No!"

 

The man punched Jordan Qi hard once again and then stepped back. He held his mobile phone and was ready to make a call.

 

But when he saw the phone's signal, he couldn't call out. Immediately, the man cursed and put the phone away. "Damn, it's raining heavily. Even my specialized phone doesn't have a signal."

 

"Don't worry. Anyway, it's just a few more hours. When the rain stops, we'll call again. Another man with a crew-cut hair smiled and said, "I heard that Fade Chen is a person who appreciates friendship. We should be able to get the formula this time."

 

The man who punched Jordan spat and said, "What's so important about friendship? I'm not sure about these businessmen. In the face of interests, friendship is just a piece of sh*t. I don't think Fade Chen will come."

 

The crew-cut man waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone, "It's none of our business whether he comes or not. Anyway, we are just being paid to do the job. Let the boss worry about other things."

 

"That's true!" The man nodded. "Do you think that the formula is really that powerful to the extent that boss paid so much attention to it and even wanted to kill for it. Is it worth it?"

 

"If the boss said it is worth it, then it is. I don't care so much. Anyway, I am a fugitive so I don't mind killing one more people." The man with the crew-cut hair said casually as if he didn't care whether Jordan Qi would hear this.

 

Jordan Qi seemed to be frightened by their words. He trembled and sobbed.

 

Fade Chen saw everything in the house through the gap. He was angry and he locked his sight on the two people in front of him with murderous eyes. "So it's true that Watson Xie had hired these fugitives to kidnap Jordan Qi in order to obtain the formula."

 

Worried about Jordan Qi's safety, Fade Chen did not take action immediately. Instead, he hid quietly outside the house. About an hour later, the man responsible for the stove went out to change role with the man on guard. The man came in and made the fire. Then he ate something casually and wrapped his arms around and fell asleep leaning on the wall.

 

It was late at night. Fade Chen surveyed the area and saw that the three of them were already sleepy and did not have much stamina to stand on guard.

 

Thus, Fade Chen noiselessly found his way to the wooden door and rushed out from the shadow. One strike on the neck of the man at the door and instantly knocked him out.

 

Before the people inside could react, Fade Chen kicked open the wooden door and dashed straight towards the two men next to the stove. He kicked them on their chins respectively, which sent them flying and hit them hard on the ground. Both men instantly passed out.

 

It didn't take long for Fade Chen to subdue the three guards. Next, Fade Chen walked quickly to the bed, turned Jordan Qi around, and was about to untie the rope for him.

But just as Fade Chen reached out to untie the rope, Jordan Qi, who was lying on the bed, turned around and bounced his whole upper body up. At the same time, a dagger glistened in his hand as he stabbed hard towards Fade Chen's abdomen.
