Chapter 164: [164] The fox exploits the tiger’s might_1

Zhou Bingrui stared at the man for a long while. “Isn’t this Liu Dehai? What happened to you? Got beaten up?”

Liu Dehai had just had his hair pulled out by Tang Feng, and his head was already a bloody mess.

Hearing Zhou Bingrui’s question, he seemed to replace a pillar of support. “Mr. Rui, you have to help me get revenge for this affront.”

Zhou Bingrui glanced at Tang Feng, a strange smile appearing on his face. “Don’t be in a hurry. Tell me slowly, what exactly happened?”

Liu Dehai glared viciously at Tang Feng. “I was here today on behalf of Qianda Plaza to discuss some business when this little beast suddenly charged at me and grabbed my hair for no reason. I said I’m the vice president of Qianda Plaza, but he said he was hitting someone from Qianda Plaza.”

“Mr. Rui, he’s not just hitting me, he’s slapping your face!”

Zhou Bingrui looked at him impassively. “Oh, is that so? To dare provoke my man is indeed to seek death. So, what do you think I should do to punish him?”

Liu Dehai’s spirits lifted immediately, and he eagerly whispered into his ear, “That woman has already been drugged. We can take her to a hotel later. You go first, Mr. Rui, and I’ll follow. Then we can frame this kid and make sure he never recovers…”

Zhou Bingrui swept his gaze over Liu Dehai. “Didn’t realize you were this vicious. You’ve done this sort of thing before, haven’t you?”

Liu Dehai missed the sarcasm in his words and laughed with a “Heh heh”. “Mr. Rui, if there’s a woman you fancy in the future, just leave it to me to handle. I guarantee I’ll take care of it perfectly, without leaving any trouble.”

“Do you know what kind of person I hate the most?” Zhou Bingrui didn’t take up his offer, instead asking him back.

“I don’t know,” Liu Dehai hesitated, unsure of what he meant.

“I hate two kinds of people the most: one is someone who uses despicable means to frame others, and the other is someone who uses despicable means to frame my friends. You, you tick both boxes. So, what do you think I should do with you?” Zhou Bingrui lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and blew the smoke into his face.

“Friends?” Liu Dehai shuddered and turned to glance at Tang Feng. “He… He’s a friend of Mr. Rui?”

“What? Doesn’t look like it?” Zhou Bingrui’s eyes bore into him.

Liu Dehai wanted to say no, but he didn’t dare.

That was because the people Zhou Bingrui usually hung out with were dandies from the upper echelons of Zhonghai.

Although Tang Feng was now worth tens of millions, he still lacked refinement. He was obviously a bumpkin.

How could such a person be a friend of Mr. Rui?

But since Zhou Bingrui himself had said it, he had no choice but to believe it.

“Mr. Rui, I was wrong. Please forgive me this once.”

Realizing the situation, Liu Dehai promptly knelt down.

Zhou Bingrui was indeed the leading figure among the dandies of Zhonghai, notorious for his ruthless methods.

Now, aside from pleading for mercy, he had no other choice.

“Rest assured, you’re not worth me making a move,” Zhou Bingrui said, pressing the cigarette butt forcefully against his forehead.

The searing pain nearly made Liu Dehai pass out, but he didn’t dare to dodge, feeling a surge of relief instead.

From Zhou Bingrui’s words, did it mean he was going to be let off the hook?

However, before he could rejoice for long, he heard Zhou Bingrui say coolly, “You can turn yourself in. Confess all the dirty things you’ve done, and hope for leniency.”

Liu Dehai shuddered, pleading in despair, “Mr. Rui, please punish me instead, I don’t want to go to jail.”

“You can punish me however you want, even if you want to sleep with my mother. I’m begging you, give me another chance…”

If all the things he had done were revealed, he would be sentenced to at least ten or eight years.

He was over fifty now. If he spent ten years inside, he’d likely end up a bum on the streets when he came out.

“Anyone who offends a friend of Zhou Bingrui must pay the price, no matter who they are.”

Zhou Bingrui left those words behind without giving him another look and quickly walked towards Tang Feng. “Feng, are you alright?”

“I’m fine,” Tang Feng smiled at him.

No matter how debauched Zhou Bingrui usually was, he was still very loyal to his friends.

Liu Dehai was the vice president of Qianda Plaza, definitely part of the upper echelon.

Yet, for the sake of brotherhood, Zhou Bingrui was ready to send him straight to prison.

This showed his character: a man who valued brotherhood above all else.

“Your friend is alright?” Zhou Bingrui asked, gesturing toward the unconscious Jiang Zi.

“She’s fine. I’ll get her a room so she can sleep it off.”

“Alright, then we’ll wait for you in the private room. After you’ve settled your friend, come and replace us.”

Zhou Bingrui didn’t say much more, patted him on the shoulder, and with his entourage, entered the restaurant.

Only then did Tang Feng have the chance to turn his gaze to Liu Dehai.

At that moment, Liu Dehai was stripped of his earlier glory, looking more like a beaten dog, kneeling there, utterly dejected.

He then turned his head and looked at Qian Xu.

“Mr. Tang…” Qian Xu hurriedly showed a nervous smile.

The young man in front of him was someone who could call Zhou Bingrui brother. Crushing him would be like squashing an ant.

Tang Feng slowly approached him. “I’ll let you off this time. If I hear about you bringing Jiang Zi to events like this again, or if you give her a hard time at work, you should know the consequences.”

“I wouldn’t dare, absolutely wouldn’t dare,” Qian Xu quickly waved his hands, a sense of relief washing over him.

The outcome for Liu Dehai was clear, and he didn’t want to follow in his footsteps.

Without another word, Tang Feng turned and walked toward Jiang Zi.

It wasn’t really a matter of mercy. If he genuinely had the power, he definitely wouldn’t let Qian Xu off so easily.

But at the moment, he was just borrowing Zhou Bingrui’s leftover power, using it to scare Qian Xu a bit.

Of course, if he asked Zhou Bingrui for help, the latter would surely not refuse.

However, Huazhong Securities wasn’t a company under the Zhou family banner. Zhou would certainly need to pull strings and owe favors to deal with Qian Xu.

And that wasn’t necessary.

After all, his own power wasn’t strong enough yet.

If he held sway in the Zhonghai Business Community, a single word would be enough to end Qian Xu’s career.

It seems he needed to keep accumulating power.
