My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 199 - 197: Just a Disaster Star

Who is Lu Hao? Could he be intimidated by a red-haired man? He put his hands on his hips and said arrogantly, "I'll just wait here and see what you can do to me!"

"Fine, you've got guts." The red-haired man gritted his teeth and nodded, "If I don't cripple you today, I'm your grandson." Having said that, the red-haired man began to make a phone call.

Once the call connected, he cried out with a smirk, "Young Master Hu, I've been beaten… I don't know who he is, but he looks extremely arrogant… I'm at the bar, that one in the suburbs… Okay, okay, I'll wait for you…" The red-haired man hung up the phone and then looked at Lu Hao with fury, "My big brother is coming soon, and when he arrives, you'll be scared to death!"

"Sure, I'll wait." Lu Hao sneered, "I want to see what kind of person you can call over."

Ten minutes later.

A group of men with extraordinary aura walked into the bar, led by a handsome man in his thirties with an upright posture, moving with a vigorous stride.

"Young Master Hu, you finally made it." The red-haired man hurriedly greeted him, "If you hadn't come, I would have been beaten to death by now." As he said this, the red-haired man reached up to wipe his eyes, looking pitiful.

"Who hit you?" the man asked gravely. "Don't worry, I'll definitely seek justice for you today."

"He hit me." The red-haired man pointed at Lu Hao, "This guy is especially cruel and beat me to a pulp… and he's also extremely arrogant…"

The man looked up, "What? It's you?"

Lu Hao grinned, "I thought who it could be! Turns out it's you, you turtle calf! Niu Hu, you're really moving up in the world, recruiting such trashy minions. I'm embarrassed for you."

The red-haired man's backup turned out to be Niu Hu.

"Lu Hao, who are you cursing!" Niu Hu's face darkened.

"I'm cursing you, you motherfucking turtle calf! Not convinced? Come on, fight me and see if I don't beat you so bad you'll be searching for your teeth." Lu Hao sneered. Others might fear Niu Hu, but he did not. In truth, their strengths were comparable, neither one could easily overpower the other.

Lu Hao? He is Lu Hao? That little devil who causes trouble everywhere? The red-haired man's eyes bulged at once. He had heard of Lu Hao's reputation a long time ago and had even regarded him as an idol... The red-haired man had always wanted to meet Lu Hao, to get an autograph or take a picture together, but he never had the chance...

Ironically, today he had encountered his idol and didn't recognize him, resulting in a conflict.

What the hell! This is outrageous!

The red-haired man was very depressed and even a little worried, afraid that Lu Hao would retaliate. But when he saw Niu Hu, his mood gradually stabilized. With Niu Hu protecting him, surely Lu Hao wouldn't dare to go too far.

But... it looks like today's beating is in vain.

He's hit the iron plate!

After learning Lu Hao's true identity, the red-haired man gave up any thought of revenge. There was no method; the difference in strength was too great. Now, he just hoped that Niu Hu could smooth things over and quell Lu Hao's anger, turning a big issue into a small one, and let the matter drop. This loss... he accepted it.

In a split second, the red-haired man went through a lot of emotions, from anger to shock, then to silence, followed by helplessness and despondency. If his facial expressions at that moment could be captured on the screen, he might win an Oscar for best actor.

...

Niu Hu was also feeling downcast. In the capital, not many people made him wary, and he could count them on one hand, Lu Hao being one of them… Logically, with the size of the capital, the chance for them to meet was small, but today... they encountered each other in such circumstances...

What to do?

The red-haired man was a henchman he had just recruited, and now he'd been bullied by Lu Hao. If Niu Hu turned a blind eye, it would definitely dishearten the red-haired man… A simple red-haired man wasn't much, but the key concern was his reputation. If he couldn't even protect his own minion, it was too pathetic. Who would follow him after that?

This matter couldn't be overlooked that easily! At the very least, Lu Hao had to compensate the red-haired man for medical expenses.

Just as Niu Hu was getting ready to show authority, something caught his eye—a person who instilled immense fear in him… That person was Gao Fei... He rubbed his eyes hard, then looked up again, no mistake, Gao Fei was indeed sitting diagonally across, this wasn't an illusion.

Damn it! How did this bastard end up here too?

Niu Hu's face turned deathly pale in an instant. Towards Lu Hao, he held wariness, but towards Gao Fei, he was deathly afraid.

"Niu Hu, I've noticed that we have a deep fate between us. Every time I come to the capital, I run into you. It really is… fateful," Gao Fei said lightly.

Niu Hu's mouth twitched violently, wanting to say something, but the words just wouldn't come out, and he was frozen in place for a moment.

Inwardly, Lu Hao greatly admired Gao Fei's intimidating presence. Gao Fei had silenced Niu Hu as soon as he showed up—that was some serious skill. Lu Hao wondered when he would reach such heights. After contemplating for a moment, he let out a resigned sigh… Surpassing Brother Fei was nothing but a pipe dream; no ordinary person could comprehend his level of badassery.

"You... why are you here..." Niu Hu finally managed to say after struggling for a while.

"What a stupid question," Gao Fei chuckled. "This is a bar, so of course, I'm here to drink. You don't even understand such a simple concept? I'm starting to doubt whether you graduated from elementary school or if your IQ is normal."

If someone else had made such sarcastic remarks to Niu Hu, he would have lashed out long ago, but facing Gao Fei… he wilted, primarily because after being dealt with by Gao Fei a few times, he had developed a mental block and didn't dare to resist.

Grandpa and Dad had warned Niu Hu multiple times that he could provoke anyone except Gao Fei, and if he didn't heed their warning, they would break his legs. The thought alone sent shivers down Niu Hu's spine. Grandpa and Dad usually doted on him, smoothing over any trouble he got into—but their demeanor changed when it came to Gao Fei.

They became severe and terrifying, seriously cautioning Niu Hu that this was no laughing matter.

"About today's incident…" Niu Hu didn't know what to say.

"Your subordinate is very bad," Gao Fei said. "I really dislike him."

Taken aback, Niu Hu nodded in understanding. He turned around, raised his hand, and slapped the redhead: "Kneel down and apologize to Mr. Gao!"

"What?" The redhead was stunned.

"Smack!"

Niu Hu slapped the redhead again: "Didn't you hear what I said? Kneel down if you don't want to die!"

"Thud!"

The redhead, lacking any backbone, knelt down and, with a mournful expression, apologized to Gao Fei: "I'm sorry, I was blind to Mt. Tai and offended you. Please forgive me…" If even Niu Hu was scared to death, the opponent's background must be terrifyingly powerful—this was someone the redhead never dared to offend. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"You're kneeling to the wrong person," Gao Fei said indifferently.

"What?" The redhead was puzzled and did not understand.

"You should be apologizing to that girl," Gao Fei stated.

"Yes… I'll apologize right away…" The redhead reacted swiftly, twisted his body, faced Wang Tingting, and, with a pained and earnest expression, said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have offended you, please forgive me… You must forgive me…"

Wang Tingting stood there dumbfounded, not saying a word, completely bemused by the scene unfolding before her…

Seeing that Wang Tingting remained silent, the redhead became frantic: "Miss, oh, no, my lady, you are my dear lady, I beg you, please forgive me, I won't dare to offend you ever again."

Finally, Wang Tingting came back to her senses. She looked at the redhead with a complex expression: "You… get up… stand up to speak…"

"I won't get up unless you forgive me," the redhead started playing stubborn.

"I… I…" Wang Tingting, being a kind-hearted girl, felt a bit of pity seeing the redhead's sorry appearance (though it was feigned): "Get up, I forgive you."

"Thank you, thank you," the redhead said with great relief. After expressing his gratitude a few times, he scrambled up from the ground. Just as he exhaled in relief, Lu Hao took action.

"Hey, grandson, aren't you also supposed to apologize to me?" Lu Hao taunted.

The redhead shivered and then turned to look at Niu Hu…

"What are you looking at me for!" Niu Hu glared back: "You brought this trouble on yourself, deal with it yourself, I'm not getting involved!" In his heart, Niu Hu added, I couldn't even if I wanted to, with that fearsome guy around, how dare I protect you?

The redhead felt bitter inside; he really had been blind to pick such a useless boss…

Sigh… it's best to kneel; otherwise, today won't end well.

The redhead knelt down again, apologizing to Lu Hao with utmost sincerity: "Lu Shao, I admire you greatly; I've always seen you as my idol. If you had revealed your identity earlier, I would never have dared to provoke you. You're someone who can let bygones be bygones; please forgive me this time. I'll definitely mend my ways and not act recklessly again."

"Hmm, considering the sincerity of your apology, I'll let you off just this once. Beat it," Lu Hao waved his hand dismissively.

"Thank you, Lu Shao," the redhead said, standing up and leading his group of friends to leave.

"Hold on," Lu Hao called out.

The redhead's body stiffened, and he slowly turned around, looking at Lu Hao with trepidation: "Lu Shao…"

"Don't be nervous, I just want to know your name," Lu Hao said casually. "Look how scared you are, daring to make trouble with that little courage, you really have a death wish."

So he's just asking for my name, Jesus, I was scared to death just now! The redhead's hanging heart finally dropped: "My name is Liu Meng, my father is…"

"Alright, get out of here," Lu Hao waved his hand impatiently: "You're not much to look at, but you've got a pretty fierce name."

Liu Meng nodded and led his group of friends away quickly. After this incident, Comrade Liu Meng indeed became much more restrained and even became friends with Lu Hao eventually. Of course, that's a story for another time, so let's not dwell on it for now.

As soon as Liu Meng and the others left, the scene became quiet. Niu Hu stood there, unsure whether to stay or leave, with a downcast face, wondering what to do next.
