Clara stepped forward between Ethan and Kang Lei with the automatic movement of someone who has spent a lifetime trying to manage the spaces between people who are about to collide.

"Kang Lei," she said, using his name directly, "we're all family here. There's no reason for any of this."

"Family," Kang Lei said, and the word came out the way words come out when they are being used as the opposite of what they mean. "Who's family with you? You killed my wife and my son. Today you give me an expl

    Ouyang De said, "Mr. Chen, we genuinely spent the money. Even if you kill us, we can't produce six million.""Can't produce it?"Kyle Chen shouted, with the fury of someone whose evening has been comprehensively ruined, "If you can't produce it, then hit them! Hit them hard!"The bodyguards moved on the instruction, but Chen Haizhu stopped them immediately."Wait."Ouyang De, startled by the near-violence and then relieved by Chen Haizhu's intervention, said quickly, "Mr. Chen is still a reasonable man. Beating us won't produce money we don't have. The money is genuinely spent"Chen Haizhu looked at him with cold calculation.He turned to the bodyguards."Strip everything valuable off them first. Clothes, watches, jewelry, all of it. Then beat them."He had done the arithmetic already. Expecting repayment from the Ouyang family directly was not realistic, they had nothing beyond what they'd spent today. The only recoverable value was what remained on their bodies.The bodyguards moved

    Ethan surveyed the crowd before him, his gaze finally settling on Ouyang Shan, and he said with a playful smirk, "Cousin, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about the demolition money. Thanks for the reminder."He turned to Gu Qingcheng and said, "You've already transferred the 10 million demolition dollars for my old family home into my account, but Manager Chen and his son gave them 6 million.Is your Gu Family Group that rich? Does this mean money can be spent freely, given to whomever you please?"His words were spoken lightly, but to those present, each word felt like a ton of bricks, especially to the Chen father and son, who felt as if they had been struck by lightning.The members of the Ouyang Family were all dumbfounded, they never expected that Gu Qingcheng would directly transfer the demolition money into Ethans's account.No wonder he had no reaction when the house was demolished, it turned out he had already received the demolition money, and it was a sub

    Zhang Linlin said,"She told you the truth. She didn't lie and she didn't make anything up. The restaurant was booked by Miss Gu this afternoon. The instruction to refuse all other guests came from her directly. Miss Gu is inside right now, waiting for her guests."Chen Haizhu stood very still.If Gu Qingcheng had genuinely made this booking, if she was genuinely inside that restaurant right now, then the slap he had just delivered to the receptionist's face was, in its practical meaning, a slap to Gu Qingcheng's face. He had struck an employee for accurately conveying the Young Miss's instructions."Impossible," he said. "This is not possible. If Miss Gu came to Wufeng County, she would notify me. Every time she has visited before, I have been the first call. I arranged her accommodations, her meetings, her schedule. She does not come here without telling me first."He was saying it to Zhang Linlin. He was also saying it to himself.A voice from the direction of the entrance said, pl

    Ouyang De said, "Ethan used to carry himself like he was something. One look at Kyle Chen and he turned into a completely different person. Watched them tear his house down and didn't make a sound."Ouyang Duo, "He's not stupid. Kyle has the Gu family behind him. Does Ethan Vale have a death wish? Shan found a real treasure this time. From now on, nobody touches the Ouyang family."A brand-new Range Rover pulled into the parking lot.Ouyang Zhi got out first, then Ouyang Shan.The morning version of Ouyang Shan, swollen cheeks, disheveled from two slaps, running out of the old house courtyard, had been replaced. She was wearing a limited edition Chanel dress, carrying an LV bag that she would shortly reveal cost a hundred thousand dollars, Prada sandals, and a pair of emerald jade bracelets that sat on her wrist with the self-consciousness of jewelry that has been purchased for the purpose of being seen.Ouyang Zhi beside her had arrived at the same conclusion about his day: gold chai

  • CHAPTER 151: Money Means Having Your Way

    Ouyang De stepped forward with the authority of someone who has decided the argument is already settled."This house is Ouyang family ancestral property. The demolition compensation belongs to the Ouyang family. That's the end of it."Ouyang Zhi, "The house was taken from us through manipulation years ago. Today we're simply reclaiming what should always have been ours."Kyle Chen raised his hand with the composed finality of someone holding all the levers."There's nothing to argue about. Pearce Group is handling this demolition. We decide who receives the compensation. Simple as that."He turned and took the case from his assistant. He handed it directly to Ouyang Shan."Young Miss Shan, this is yours."Ouyang Shan took the case. She turned to Kyle Chen and kissed his face approximately a dozen times with the enthusiasm of someone whose gratitude has exceeded the bounds of what the occasion strictly required."Baby, I absolutely love you."She turned to the Ouyang family and began d

    They had barely reached the funeral home entrance when Tang Jian's phone rang.He answered, listened, and came to Ethan's side immediately."Mr. Vale, there's a situation at the old house.""Tell me.""Black Bear has been on guard there since last night as you instructed. He just called. Pearce Group has arrived with excavators and demolition equipment. They're preparing to tear it down."Ethan's expression went still."That house is in my mother's name. No demolition agreement has been signed. Who authorized the demolition?""That's the problem," Tang Jian said, with the specific discomfort of someone delivering information they would prefer not to be delivering. "The company doing the demolition is Pearce Group. And Pearce Group operates under the Gu family umbrella."Normally, if it were any other company, our Association could step in. But we cannot touch Pearce Group. The Gu family is too significant. I wouldn't bring this against them and frankly even the Tang family wouldn't ei
