When he spoke, Xu Rongfei's face turned cold:
"Wei Ziping! If you keep talking like this, I'll lose my temper."
Wei Ziping sneered but didn't open his mouth to provoke her again.
He had learned about Xu Rongfei's identity, the daughter of Xu Ao, and even his father, Old Wei, wouldn't easily offend her. Although Wei Ziping was a spoiled young master, it didn't mean he was stupid.
He usually only bullied those with backgrounds inferior to his or those who needed to be taught a lesson.
'Hmph, once I get acquainted with Master Chen, will I still need to care about you, a mere daughter of Xu Ao?' Wei Ziping's heart was burning with excitement.
He had specially rushed back from Nanjing at Old Wei's call, preparing to be introduced to Master Chen, hoping that Master Chen would help his good-for-nothing son.
Thinking of this, Wei Ziping didn't bother to pay attention to Chen Fan, saying listlessly:
"I heard you have some connection with my sister. She even lent you the villa on the hilltop. The old man is really partial."
"Ah? Isn't that villa Old Wei's?" Zhang Yumeng asked in surprise.
"You don't know, my father gave the keys to the old man the day after he got them, and he never even stayed there for a day." Wei Ziping shook his head with a tsk. "I guess my sister begged the old man for the keys. I didn't expect her to give them to a stranger. Really... tsk tsk."
Thinking about this, Wei Ziping felt a twinge of pain in his heart.
That was the most luxurious villa in Chuzhou, and he had been eyeing it for a long time. But with the keys in the old man's hands, how could he dare to ask for them?
'Only Wei Ziqing, that girl, is favored by the old man, so she could get the keys, and even lent them to a stranger. I must find an opportunity to report her to the old man harshly.'
He thought to himself.
Hearing that Chen Fan had no connection with Old Wei, Li Yichen and the others relaxed.
Wei Ziqing was ultimately just a girl in her twenties. No matter how capable she was, how could she compare to Old Wei?
"Hehe, since my sister is protecting you, I won't cause you trouble for now. But I want to see how she will explain to the old man." Wei Ziping bared his teeth at Chen Fan, his eyes full of malice.
Zhang Yumeng and the others felt a sense of schadenfreude.
That villa was worth nearly a hundred million. If Wei Ziqing gave it to a friend, especially a stranger, she would surely have a hard time explaining to the elders of the Wei family.
Only Han Yun shook her head in disapproval.
She had seen how Old Wei had fawned over Chen Fan, yet his son was still showing off in front of Chen Fan.
'You're being wild in front of Master Chen, I doubt Old Wei can protect you.'
Sure enough, Chen Fan said calmly:
"Even your father wouldn't dare to speak to me like this. Who gave you the nerve?"
When Chen Fan spoke, everyone was stunned.
Zhang Yumeng and the others drew a sharp breath, looking at him.
Brother, you're facing the top spoiled young master of Chuzhou, Wei Ziping. He's known for his bad temper and has been involved in countless fights. Otherwise, why would he have been sent to Nanjing for discipline?
Jiang Churan had just relaxed, thinking Chen Fan had no connection with Old Wei.
Seeing this, her heart sank again, wishing she could cover Chen Fan's mouth on the spot:
'Can't you soften your mouth a bit? Don't you see the situation?'
Li Yichen smiled without a word, but a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
He knew that as long as he brought Wei Ziping to Chen Fan, he wouldn't need to intervene. The personalities of these two would inevitably clash.
Wei Ziping's pale face turned grim, and he glared at Chen Fan coldly:
"You dare to speak to me like this?"
"Don't think that with Wei Ziqing protecting you, I won't do anything to you?"
"Wei Ziqing isn't here. Do you believe I can beat you up, and she won't have a word to say?"
"Oh, really? Come on then!" Chen Fan smiled mockingly, shrugging his shoulders.
Hearing this, Wei Ziping laughed in anger.
He had been bullying people in Chuzhou for so many years and had never seen anyone dare to challenge him face-to-face. Wei Ziping laughed and bared his teeth:
"Good!"
"It seems that after I left Chuzhou for a year or two, some people have forgotten my power."
Jiang Churan and the others turned pale, realizing Wei Ziping was about to lose his temper.
"Mr. Wei, this is a gathering of the top figures in Jiangbei. If there's a commotion, it won't look good for Old Wei." Even Li Yichen changed his expression and hurried to advise.
Wei Ziping had a temper that could turn on a dime, regardless of the occasion or the people present.
If he caused a commotion in this hall, in front of so many wealthy people from Jiangbei, it would not only damage his own reputation but also that of the Wei family and Chuzhou.
If Old Wei found out, would he let it go?
While advising, he added:
"Chen Fan, what is Mr. Wei's status? Speaking like this is too disrespectful to the Wei family and Old Wei."
"Quickly apologize to Mr. Wei."
"Yes, Chen Fan, quickly apologize to Mr. Wei." Jiang Churan also urged anxiously.
In her view, even if Chen Fan had a good relationship with Wei Ziqing, it couldn't compare to the fact that they were cousins. Moreover, Chen Fan's words had also insulted Old Wei.
"Boy, I'm giving you a chance. Apologize now, and I'll let you off."
Wei Ziping looked at him with a cold gaze, his voice icy.
Chen Fan, as if he hadn't heard, said calmly:
"I'll give you a chance too."
"Kneel down and apologize now, and I won't break your legs!"
When he said this, Wei Ziping's face changed drastically, his eyes almost spitting fire.
The surrounding crowd was shocked! Zhang Yumeng, Yang Chao, and others covered their mouths, unable to believe what Chen Fan had said.
Even Xu Rongfei was extremely anxious.
'Brother Chen Fan, why are you so stubborn? Don't confront him head-on.'
Only Jiang Churan sighed inwardly, feeling disappointed.
'Chen Fan, with such a temper, you'll never achieve greatness. In society, you'll only end up with a bloody head.'
'Who among the greats doesn't know how to adapt to the situation? A man must be able to bend and stretch.'
She thought back to their conversation a few days ago at the resort.
Chen Fan had insisted that he was Master Chen, boasting confidently. From then on, she knew that this person would never back down, no matter how painful it was.
Just as Wei Ziping was about to attack, Chu Minghui grabbed him and said in a low voice:
"Brother Wei, let it go."
"What kind of place is this? If there's a commotion, will Old Wei let it go?"
While saying this, he glared at Chen Fan coldly:
"Chen boy, don't just talk big."
"If you have the skills, let's go outside and fight one-on-one. I'll even let you have one hand."
Being selected as a candidate for the Canglong, Chu Minghui's skills were definitely above those of ordinary special forces.
"Is that all?" Chen Fan laughed lightly. "Not enough?"
"What about me?" Li Yichen was also quite angry, resenting Chen Fan for not giving him face.
"Still not enough." Chen Fan shook his head.
"Ha, what about me?" Wei Ziping sneered.
"Still not enough." Chen Fan shook his head again.
The onlookers were increasingly shocked. This guy was really pushing it.
"Really? What if I join?" A voice suddenly interjected.
Everyone turned to see a group of people walking over, led by a young man in his twenties.
"Wan Jun? How did he come back?"
People around them exclaimed in surprise.
"Who is he?"
The corner where Chen Fan and the others were standing had already attracted a large crowd of onlookers, including many non-Chuzhou residents. The question came from an outsider.
"The young master of the Wan family in Chuzhou. His grandfather was the former secretary of Chuzhou, his father is the vice chairman of the CPPCC, and his uncle-in-law is the richest man in Jiangbei, Shen Ronghua." The person answered in a low voice.
"The Wanrong Group is named after the Wan and Shen families."
"Shen Ronghua's nephew?" Everyone drew a sharp breath.
Anyone from Jiangbei would recognize the name Shen Ronghua.
He was the richest man in Jiangbei, one of the top ten, even top five, billionaires in Jiangsu Province!
Facing the aggressive Wan Jun, Chen Fan remained calm.
"Still not enough!"
When he said this, everyone seemed to be numb.
Li Yichen, Chu Minghui, Wei Ziping, and Wan Jun!
Good grief, this guy had offended nearly half of the top young masters of Chuzhou. Many people shook their heads, thinking this guy was courting death and might not leave the Tian Sheng Grand Hotel in one piece.
"Ha, Yichen was right, you are indeed arrogant!" Wan Jun laughed and shook his head.
He looked at Chen Fan as if he were a fool.
Not bowing to power is commendable, but stubbornly refusing to back down when the gap is so large is just foolish.
Jiang Churan sighed softly and closed her eyes. She was powerless to do anything. Only Xu Rongfei was extremely anxious, already thinking about whether to find her father to see if he could help Chen Fan.
Wei Ziping and the others' gazes grew colder, and it was only a matter of time before they acted.
At this moment, Chen Fan's phone suddenly rang, and he pulled out his Nokia without hesitation.
"Boy, are you making a call before you die?" Wei Ziping said arrogantly. "Who's calling? Tell him to come and collect your body!"
Chen Fan's expression changed, and after looking at him for a while, he slowly said:
"It's your father's call!"
