"How could I have given birth to a useless son like you? They hit you, and all you do is cry like a dog. In the future, when you go out, don't say you're the son of Li Yun," Li Yun said with a tone full of contempt.
Li Yun wanted to hit this useless son. He was truly a lost cause.
"I don't want to say you're my father either, but I can't change that fact!"
Seeing Li Yun furious, Li Mingshun's voice faded considerably.
"What's wrong? Are you regretting that I brought you into this world? Should I have shot you against the wall instead?" Li Yun said with a serious face.
Li Yun's strong presence scared Li Mingshun so much that he didn't dare to say a word.
"Dad... I..."
"Enough!" Li Mingshun didn't finish speaking when Li Yun interrupted him with a gesture of his hand. "I didn't come here to listen to your complaints or your whining. Remember, you are the son of Li Yun. If someone hits you, hit them back. I'll back you up. Just make sure not to kill anyone."
"I... can't beat him!"
"Useless! What do you have bodyguards for? Do you need to fight yourself?"
Li Mingshun didn't dare to say anything. His two bodyguards had been defeated by Gu Yanran's security guard, so he had also been hit by that guard.
He didn't dare to tell his father about this for fear of being scolded again.
The doctors and nurses present listened to the conversation between father and son and were astonished.
No wonder he is the richest man in Jinling; his words are truly powerful.
"Alright, kid, don't go out for a while. Stay here and recover."
"Ah... Dad, but what about Gu Yanran and that security guard? You can't let him go."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of that guard. As for Gu Yanran, forget about her."
Gu Yanran was the female protagonist; Li Mingshun, this useless son of a millionaire, had no right to desire her.
If someone should desire her, it would be his own father.
"Ah... Dad, but I..."
"No buts. Stay here for three months. If you go out again and cause trouble, I'll break your legs," Li Yun warned again.
"Ding! The host has reprimanded his villainous son. The host has gained 1000 villain points. The host currently has 6000 villain points." At that moment, the system reported.
Villain points?
I've heard the system mention it before, and these villain points seem quite useful.
There were many eyes around, so Li Yun didn't stop to investigate it.
However, this useless son had an unexpected function.
Reprimanding a useless son was Li Yun's specialty.
It seems that in the future, his villain points will be secured.
Li Mingshun being hurt was also an excuse to confront the Gu family.
Leaving him here would prevent him from meeting the protagonist Mo Bufan and being defeated again.
After ordering some bodyguards to stay and ensure Li Mingshun's safety and giving some instructions to the doctors, Li Yun stopped worrying about his son.
"Mr. Li, are you really going to let things end like this with young Li?" Su Xiaowan asked as they left the hospital, somewhat doubtful.
Resolving things peacefully was not Li Yun's style.
"Let it end like this?"
"That's impossible!"
"No matter how useless he is, he's still my son. I can hit him, but no one else can," Li Yun said angrily.
Daring to hit Li Yun's son, especially if the other was a protagonist, was unforgivable.
"Then should I notify the Gu family to hand over the culprit?" Su Xiaowan asked cautiously.
"Notify the Gu family? This is clearly the work of the Gu family!"
Li Yun's words confused Su Xiaowan for a moment, not understanding what he meant.
However, she soon guessed: Li Yun wanted to confront the entire Gu family.
"Immediately notify the three biggest families in Jinling and the families associated with the Gu family that the Gu family ordered my son to be beaten until their legs were broken to reject their advances. Let them see how to handle it."
Li Yun didn't care about disclosing family issues.
He would use this as an excuse to confront the entire Gu family.
The Li family was now very entrenched, and even if the Gu family allied with Mo Bufan, the protagonist, he was not afraid.
Unless Mo Bufan brought his hundred thousand soldiers to Jinling.
But was that possible?
Do you think the Han Empire's government wouldn't act?
If Mo Bufan dared to do that, the Han government would be the first to eliminate him.
…
In the city of Jinling, the Gu family.
The Gu family, although it had assets worth billions, was nothing much in a place like Jinling.
The head of the Gu family, Gu Yunxiao, had been a soldier in his early years, but due to illness, he retired early and left the company to his daughter, Gu Yanran.
Gu Yunxiao had gone to the courtyard, prepared a nice cup of tea, and was about to enjoy it, one of his favorite activities.
"Chief, something terrible has happened...!"
The butler, with a panicked expression, rushed in, showing signs of fear.
"Old Bai, what's wrong? You look very worried!"
Seeing the butler like this, Gu Yunxiao didn't react immediately and joked with him.
"The Yu Group and the Chen Group just canceled their contracts with us..." the butler Bai said nervously.
"What?"
The words of butler Bai surprised Gu Yunxiao so much that he accidentally dropped his teacup on the floor.
The Yu Group and the Chen Group were two of the major families in Jinling, powerful, and few families dared to provoke them.
Moreover, they had close business relationships with the Gu Group. How could they cancel the contracts without reason?
"President, here is today's newspaper. Look..."
The butler Bai handed the newspaper to Gu Yunxiao.
Gu Yunxiao took it and saw it was filled with news about the Gu Group.
Not only the Yu Group and the Chen Group, but many other companies, about thirty in total.
All of them were important business partners of the Gu Group. If they withdrew, the Gu Group would be practically paralyzed.
"What's going on?"
"What the hell is happening?"
Gu Yunxiao was completely bewildered. It didn't take much thought to realize that someone powerful was behind this.
But the Gu family had always been discreet, avoiding offending major figures.
"Could it be that someone is targeting Yanran?"
Thinking of this, Gu Yunxiao immediately called his daughter, Gu Yanran.
