Ye Fan said, "You’ll regret this." He enjoyed nothing more than putting such arrogant people in their place.

The man sneered, "Regret? The word ’regret’ doesn’t exist in Laozi’s dictionary. Do you have any idea who Laozi is? This whole dealership is my property, worth over a hundred million! Who the hell are you to stand before Laozi?" It had to be said, he was incredibly arrogant, though with a net worth of over one hundred million, who wouldn’t be?

Ye Fan retorted, "Is this dealership really something to be proud of? You only sell low-end cars. The fact that Laozi is even considering buying from you is an honor! If you have any real guts, you’d be selling high-end cars!"

Su Qingxue stood behind Ye Fan without a word. She didn’t try to stop him; people like that truly needed to be taught a lesson for their arrogance. One hundred million was more money than most people could earn in a lifetime, but to her, it was a trivial sum.

President Meng scoffed, "Oh-ho! Still got a mouth on you, do you? Men, come and give him a lesson!"

"Yes, President Meng!"

A group of his employees swarmed forward, surrounding Ye Fan and Su Qingxue. The so-called President Meng, however, couldn’t take his eyes off Su Qingxue. Her beauty is completely captivating. I’ll make an example out of this punk in front of her, then I’ll plan my next move.

Before they could act, Ye Fan moved. A sharp slap sent President Meng stumbling to the ground, clutching his cheek in pain. When the others rushed in to help, Ye Fan dispatched them in the blink of an eye. More than a dozen men were left writhing on the floor, groaning in agony.

"Damn it! You dare to hit me? I’m calling the police right now!" The so-called President Meng fumbled for his phone.

Just then, however, the chairman of the luxury car market arrived. When President Meng saw this important figure, he thought his savior had come. This man was Gao Feng, and his word was law in the market. Though he appeared ordinary, he carried a distinct air of authority.

President Meng scurried over, his voice filled with grievance. "Mr. Gao, you’ve arrived just in time! This kid came to my shop to cause trouble. He clearly has no respect for the luxury car market!"

Gao Feng ignored him completely, walking straight to Ye Fan and Su Qingxue. His stern demeanor vanished, replaced by an eager, almost fawning expression.

He bowed respectfully to Su Qingxue. "It’s President Su! Hello, hello!"

"Do I know you?" Su Qingxue asked, confused.

Ye Fan was just as puzzled. Neither of them had any memory of this man, yet here he was, bowing and scraping just as pathetically as President Meng had been arrogant.

He answered quickly, "How could a personage like President Su know a nobody like me? I merely had the honor of witnessing your unparalleled elegance at a banquet once!"

Su Qingxue nodded, though she still had no memory of him. It was understandable; there were countless members in the Jiangning Chamber of Commerce.

He then asked, "President Su, what seems to be the problem? How can I be of service?"

Su Qingxue explained, "My husband and I came to look at cars. This man bumped into me, and instead of apologizing, he threatened to have his men attack my husband."

Instantly, the color drained from Gao Feng’s face. He knew what everyone in the Jiangning Chamber of Commerce knew: while Su Qingxue held a high position, her success was entirely due to the man behind her. This was a man to whom even Walker—the head of Global International for all of Asia—had to bow his head in greeting. The status of someone who commanded such respect was terrifying beyond imagination.

He turned back to Su Qingxue and Ye Fan, promising, "President Su, please, allow me to handle this!"

A cold fear gripped him. I have to resolve this cleanly, right now, and to her complete satisfaction, or I’ll be dragged down with him. And being implicated is the least of my worries. I just joined the Jiangning Chamber of Commerce. If I offend her, my future in Jiangning, let alone the rest of Hua Xia, is over.

Without another word, Gao Feng spun around and kicked President Meng squarely in the stomach. Meng collapsed, not even processing what was happening as he clutched his belly and cried out. None of the surrounding employees dared to step forward. They all knew that the man who ran the luxury car market with an iron fist was not someone to be crossed. If they tried to help President Meng now, they would be seeking death. Besides, Ye Fan had already beaten the fight out of them.

Just as Meng was about to ask why his own backer was attacking him, Gao Feng grabbed him by the hair and yanked him back to his feet.

"Mr. Gao, please, don’t!" President Meng pleaded in agony. He couldn’t believe Gao Feng was being so brutal, especially after all the kickbacks he’d given him. He had to hand over a large portion of his yearly profits just to get away with selling low-end cars in a luxury car market.

Gao Feng barked, "Kneel for Laozi!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Though his face was pale, President Meng was utterly terrified by Gao Feng’s roar and scrambled to his knees.

Gao Feng then unleashed a savage barrage of punches and kicks, stopping just short of killing him. President Meng could barely hold himself up as the surrounding employees trembled in fear. Gao Feng then wheeled on them, shouting, "All of you, kneel for Laozi!"

The entire group dropped to their knees. No one dared to disobey. Defying an angry Gao Feng was unthinkable; the consequences were terrifying. In this area, he had earned a fearsome nickname: Gao Yama.

Gao Feng snarled at President Meng, "Open your damn dog eyes and see who she is!"

"Mr. Gao, I-I didn’t know she was with you!" President Meng begged for mercy. "If I had known, I wouldn’t have dared, not even if you gave me ten thousand guts!"

If he hadn’t said that, Gao Feng might have shown some restraint. But the words were utterly tone-deaf.

"With your mother!" Gao Feng snarled, landing another vicious series of kicks and punches. He risked a glance at Ye Fan, breathing a sigh of relief only when he saw the man wasn’t angry.

By the time he was done, President Meng was barely conscious. Only then did Gao Feng turn back to Su Qingxue. "President Su, rest assured. I will take care of this matter flawlessly."

"Fine," Su Qingxue said. "I’ll leave it to you."

"Men! Take him away!" Gao Feng ordered.

"Yes, sir!"

Two men dragged the nearly lifeless President Meng away. It was clear his fate would be miserable; Gao Feng would never risk offending Su Qingxue and Ye Fan by letting him off easy.

Ye Fan sighed, "Honey, it looks like we won’t be buying a car today." How frustrating. Now I can’t even get a car that costs just over a hundred thousand.

Suddenly, Gao Feng hurried over to Ye Fan. "Sir, whatever car you desire, as long as it’s in this market, you are free to drive it away!"

"Do you have a Mercedes?" Ye Fan asked.

"Yes!" Gao Feng said. "We have everything from low-end to high-end models. But considering your status, Sir, I would strongly recommend a Lamborghini!" This is a golden opportunity to get on his good side. Even if it doesn’t work, it might save me a lot of anxiety if I ever accidentally offend him in the future. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Just then, Su Qingxue shot a harsh glare at Gao Feng, which made him deflate instantly. Did I say something wrong? he wondered, but after wracking his brain, he couldn’t figure out what his mistake was.

Su Qingxue asked him, "What’s the cheapest car you have?"

"The... cheapest?" Gao Feng nearly fell over. This is bizarre! People of their status are asking for the cheapest car?
