"You're so arrogant, but unfortunately, no matter how powerful you are, I'm not afraid of you. If you dare to lay a finger on me, I guarantee you'll regret it." Zhu Xiangyue was truly fearless in his ignorance, causing Dong Mingshui beside him to turn pale with fright.
Zhu Xiangyue was challenging Jiang Chen's patience. Even though they were in public, a cornered dog will jump over the wall, and a frightened rabbit will bite. No one could guarantee that if Jiang Chen was provoked further, he wouldn't lose his rationality and act recklessly. With Jiang Chen's strength, Dong Mingshui was certain that once a fight broke out, even a hundred Zhu Xiangyues would only meet their demise.
"Zhu Shao, calm down. This Golden Buddha isn't that closely related to your jewelry company. Why not just let them have it?" Dong Mingshui advised.
"What do you mean it's not related? It’s very much related! I want to buy this Golden Buddha and place it in my company for worship," Zhu Xiangyue declared loudly, his tone arrogant as he completely disregarded Jiang Chen.
Dong Mingshui felt helpless as he glanced at Jiang Chen. Seeing Jiang Chen's calm expression without any sign of agitation, he knew that Jiang Chen was definitely not as tranquil as he appeared.
"Get lost!"
As expected, Jiang Chen spoke up with just one word. His calm tone carried an intimidating authority that sent chills through the air.
The atmosphere around them instantly turned icy with Jiang Chen's unceremonious remark. Zhou Pingyong and others stood by, watching with great interest; the more conflicts Jiang Chen had with others, the more advantageous it was for Zhou Pingyong. However, this was merely Zhou Pingyong's one-sided wishful thinking. To Jiang Chen, the people on Earth were nothing more than ants; why should he be alarmed by a few more ants?
"Zhu Shao, let's go. It's really not worth causing a scene over a Golden Buddha; otherwise, you'll regret it," Dong Mingshui urged, trying to pull Zhu Xiangyue away.
But Zhu Xiangyue and his companions paid no heed to Dong Mingshui's words.
"Regret? Not a chance! I'm just competing fairly with him; he wouldn't dare make a move here," Zhu Xiangyue said dismissively as he shrugged off Dong Mingshui's hand.
"Dong Mingshui, what's wrong with you today? Are you actually afraid of this kid? We have so many people here; how can we be scared of just one?"
"Yeah, Old Dong, when did you become so timid? That's not like you at all."
"Show some of your usual bravado; we’re here to back you up! Zhu Shao is right; he wouldn’t dare act against us."
A group of sycophants chimed in, leaving Dong Mingshui speechless. It wasn't that he had turned into a frightened bird; rather, he had witnessed Jiang Chen's dominance and strength firsthand. Yet his well-meaning advice came off as cowardice, leaving him feeling extremely awkward.
"Forget it; let's pretend I never said anything. Zhu Shao, if you're determined to go down this path, I need to distance myself from you," Dong Mingshui mustered the courage to say.
"Dong Mingshui, are you out of your mind?"
"Damn it! Dong Mingshui, you're such a coward! Do you really think we haven't seen Martial Artists before? What’s there to be afraid of? With money, we can make them work for us! My bodyguard is a Martial Artist and quite skilled too."
"Have you lost your mind? You're actually going to distance yourself from Zhu Shao?"
A group of people behind Zhu Xiangyue looked at Dong Mingshui with the eyes of someone observing a madman. Although these individuals were also wealthy second-generation heirs from Hangcheng, with families that held power and influence, many of them belonged to families that were not as significant as the Zhu Family. They were not the heirs of their families and had limited access to their family resources. In contrast, Zhu Xiangyue was different; he was the sole heir of the Zhu Family. The vast business empire of the Zhu Family would one day belong to him, which is why these wealthy heirs treated Zhu Xiangyue with such respect.
