A black Mayback drove into the night.
Bai Qihan had already called the driver and told the driver to wait for Luo Yun at the entrance of the Luo family's residence. He put down the phone and pressed his finger against his forehead. "Why hasn't there been any progress with the project in the development zone?"
Qiu Ming immediately reported, "Our partner suddenly changed their terms and said that they wanted to speak with the old master face-to-face."
"Is that so?" Bai Qihan slowly raised his head, the expression on his face turning cold. "If they want to go back on their word, then they must pay the corresponding price. I don't need to teach you how to do this, do I?"
The temperature in the car suddenly dropped, and Qiu Ming could feel a chill run down his back.
"They can either talk to me or the deal is off." Bai Qihan said, "There is no third option."
"I will convey your intentions." Qiu Ming drove the car steadily. In the end, Qiu Ming changed the topic and said, "Fourth master, you are truly generous. You actually gave away an original work of Mr. Qi just like that."
"Heh, that was a fake." Bai Qihan said calmly, "His grandson knew that I was interested, so he gave me a painting he drew. Only a few of Mr. Qi's original works have been preserved. He does not even have many of them with him. The rest are in art galleries."
"It was a gift from you. There is no difference whether it's real or fake," Qiu Ming quickly added. Even if it was fake, no one would dare to say anything.
When Bai Qihan heard his assistant's words, he only chuckled and did not say anything else.
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Qiu Ming put on his bluetooth earbud and answered the call.
After he hung up, he said, "Fourth master, the madam, at the Luo family... She had an argument with her family."
Bai Qihan's face remained bereft of any expression. This kind of thing happened all the time. He tidied his sleeves and had no intention of interfering. "If you do not want to be bullied, then you must become stronger. That is the only way that you can be useful. Those who had it in them could stand without any backing." Out of a sense of responsibility, he had secretly helped her a few times. However, some people were born without a spine and could stand up with someone's help. Once they were let go, their true colors would be revealed.
All these years in the Bai family, he had been ignored and looked down on by others. He had gotten to where he was today by himself. No one had helped him. Only when he became stronger could he be treated differently.
"But this time... It was a little different." Qiu Ming slowly regained his senses after having fallen into disbelief and said, "The driver told me that the madam had stabbed her sister's arm with a fork and threw her into the water. She even slapped her second sister twice. The entire Luo family is in a mess right now."
Bai Qihan was confused. "???"
Meanwhile, inside the Luo family's attic.
"Hit her legs and make her kneel down!" Yu Xia's body trembled with anger. She wished she could eat Luo Yun alive right now.
While they were arguing, Luo Zixue had been slapped twice on the face by Luo Yun for insulting Bai Qihan. She had been so stunned that she had forgotten to fight back. But now that she had recovered, a violent rage erupted from within her. She covered her face with one of her hands and shouted, "Hold this little b*tch down. She actually dared to hit me?! I want to smash her face!"
Although Luo Yun knew some self-defense skills and knew of acupuncture points, she could not handle so many people on her own. She was held down by the bodyguards and forced to kneel. The bodyguard did not give Luo Yun a chance to react. He kicked her leg and forced Luo Yun down to the ground.
Luo Zixue rushed in front of Luo Yun and got ready to attack her.
At that moment, Luo Yun touched his hair clip and was ready to counterattack. If Luo Zixue dared to touch her today, she would fight back.
"Don't hit her face." Yu Xia suddenly said, "Today is your father's birthday. If you beat her face and bruises appear, rumors will come up after others see her."
"Mother is right. However, this little b*tch won't know her place without a good lesson. She married a cripple and still dares to behave atrociously in the Luo family!" Luo Zixue glared at Luo Yun. With just a glance, she immediately recognized the dress that Luo Yun was wearing was a limited edition dress for this summer that one could not buy even if they had the money. When she looked at Luo Yun's makeup today, she saw that she had left her and her sisters in the dust. This was also what she hated most about Luo Yun. The b*stard was actually more beautiful than them! However, looking at the current Luo Yun, Luo Zixue also realized a problem. Luo Yun had married into the Bai family and was leading a good life! She found this absolutely intolerable. She gritted her teeth, her face full of anger and unwillingness.
"Xue'er, most of the guests have arrived. I have to go and entertain them. I'll leave this place to you. Just like before, don't leave any traces in conspicuous places." Yu Xia looked at the time. She could not stay any longer. At the same time, she was glad that many important figures had yet to arrive. If everything had happened a bit later, then she would really have lost a lot of face.
"I understand. I'll make sure to teach this wench a lesson and help Little Qiong vent her anger!" A sinister smile emerged on Luo Zixue's face.
But then, out of nowhere, a cold male voice suddenly responded to her, "Who are you going to teach a lesson?"
