Chapter 564 The Arrogant Duan Langlang: s.n.a.t.c.hing from Me? Beating Your Face (2)
“Young Master Duan, I’m afraid we don’t need to trouble you for the rest. Someone said that they want to entertain my second uncle-master the whole time. Not only will they help with food, clothing, accommodations, transportation, but also…” Qiao Xiyan suddenly said. “Work!”.
“Really?” Duan Linbai strode into the ward. “Doctor, please take a look at Miss Tang’s arm.”
The doctor who followed closely behind immediately nodded and entered the ward.
“Young Master Duan, what a coincidence.” He Maozhen looked embarra.s.sed.
How could he have expected Qiao Xiyan to be so simple and crude, not giving him any face at all? He had said it so subtly, but Qiao Xiyan had directly exposed it.
Indeed…
The Qiao family members had the same temper. They were smelly and tough!
“Coincidentally, Mr. Tang and Miss Tang are my clients,” Duan Linbai said bluntly. “Mr. He, are you here to s.n.a.t.c.h from me?”
He Maozhen had fought with the Duan family in business before. Duan Linbai had studied cla.s.sical music and joined the business world halfway. He had a clean appearance and a lively personality. No one had thought highly of him in business.
Therefore, when they cooperated with him or became enemies with him, everyone had let their guard down at first. It was not until he was 22 years old and swallowed an international company did everyone take this Young Master Duan seriously.
In the business world, he was a ruthless character not to be underestimated.
When doing business, he always upheld the principle of mutual benefits and would never let his business partners suffer losses. Therefore, his reputation in the business world was excellent, and he had a wide network. No one was willing to become enemies with him.

“Young Master Duan, what are you saying? How is that possible?” He Maozhen forced a smile from the corner of his mouth. “It’s just that He Xi did something wrong, and I want to make it up to them.”
“That better be the case…” Duan Linbai smiled at him and suddenly reached out his hand toward him.
He Maozhen frowned and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Duan Linbai was even faster. He reached out to press his shoulder and patted it. “Mr. He, what are you afraid of? I won’t hit you.”
He Maozhen smiled bitterly. He wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h his business, so how could he not feel guilty?
Duan Linbai was eccentric and wicked. He could do anything.
“I just want to tell you that you should earn whatever you want to eat. Don’t keep staring at the food in someone else’s bowl.
“You should know that I don’t act according to common sense. If Mr. Tang had decided to cooperate with someone else, I could only say that I wasn’t capable enough to keep him. But we’ve already signed an intent to cooperate…
“If anyone wants to put their hand into my bowl…
“I won’t be polite!”
Duan Linbai’s fingers touched He Maozhen’s tie and moved it slightly. “Mr. He, your tie is crooked. Be careful when you go out next time…
“You’re a senior in the business world. You have to take note of your image when you go out.”
Tang Jingci was speechless.
She had interacted with Duan Linbai for so long, and his image had always been cheerful and amusing. She had never seen him be so arrogant and domineering, threatening and mocking others.
What crooked tie? What pay attention to your image?
The subtext was:
Don’t secretly do those shady things. You’re already so old. You should know some shame!
These mocking words were quite artistic.
After all, Duan Linbai had been in the business world for so long. How could he be as simple as he looked on the surface?
“Thank you.” He Maozhen couldn’t fight him head-on yet and still had to thank him.
“You’re welcome. I heard that the He Group’s cash flow is somewhat difficult. We’ve cooperated in the past. If you need anything, you’re welcome to look for me. I’ll lend you whatever you need.”
He Maozhen’s smile froze. Does he mean…
Qiao Xiyan crossed his arms and sized Duan Linbai up. All business people are evil. This saying is completely true.
On the surface, Duan Linbai seemed to be concerned about the He family. But he was actually reminding Tang w.a.n.gjin that the He Group was short of funds and couldn’t take on any major business, let alone cooperate with Tang w.a.n.gjin. As for the so-called lending money, he probably wanted to…
… Swallow the He Group.
Too ruthless!
While chatting and laughing, he patted He Maozhen a few times with a smile. But He Maozhen couldn’t retaliate. He was probably so aggrieved that he wanted to vomit blood.
He Maozhen wasn’t a fool, so he naturally understood what he meant. “Our company is doing quite well now. You don’t have to worry.” His tone was firm.
“Congratulations.” Duan Linbai smiled, looking harmless. “A lot of things have happened to the He family recently. There’s a saying that if the family isn’t at peace, there’s no way to rule the world. Mr. He, if you have time, you should pay more attention to your family.”
Qiao Xiyan subconsciously rubbed his fingers.
Indeed, none of the people that play with Fu Chen are good people. They’re all full of tricks and schemes, and Duan Linbai is the same…
He can smile while slapping your face!
He Maozhen was in a dilemma and could only stand pa.s.sively and take the beating. At this moment, his face was already green with anger.
“Mr. He, the He family has been through a lot in the past few years. Actually, your family doesn’t lack money. As the head of the family, you should pay more attention to the family’s situation. No matter how beautiful the front is, it won’t do if the backyard is on fire,” Duan Linbai kindly reminded.
“I know!” He Maozhen gritted his teeth. Doesn’t this brat mean…
“I’m just worried that you won’t be able to take care of so many things at your age. Actually, Miss He isn’t young anymore…”
He s.h.i.+qing was originally unwilling to come and apologize. When she saw her father being ridiculed, she was just watching by the side. But when Duan Linbai suddenly brought her up, she was stunned.
“Miss He has been helping out at the company. Although she’s a girl, you should let go of your power. This way, you can relax. She’s your only child, and everything will be hers in the future.
“Oh wait, I almost forgot. Your wife is pregnant again. Congratulations!”
He s.h.i.+qing’s face instantly darkened.
Over the past few days, she had been provoked one after another. For example, Song Fengwan and Duan Linbai had insisted on telling her about the child.
“Thank you.” He Maozhen could only bite the bullet and accept his congratulations.
The atmosphere in the ward was very awkward.
… Until the doctor said, “Miss Tang, there’s nothing wrong with your arm. But after you go back, don’t carry any weight on this arm. Rest more and don’t touch it. Rest well and go to the hospital for follow-up checkups regularly.”
“Thank you.” Tang Jingci’s arm had bled internally for a while. At this moment, her forearm was bruised, and her upper arm was a little swollen. Usually, when she applied medicine, it hurt so much that her scalp went numb. She didn’t dare to touch it at all.
The doctor gave a few more reminders before saying that she could be discharged today.
“Thank you, doctor. Thank you.” Tang w.a.n.gjin finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“This is what we should do.” The medical staff looked at Duan Linbai, who was still confronting someone. “Young Master Duan,
you…”
“Oh, I’ll send you out!” Duan Linbai suddenly understood. “Mr. He, Miss He, do you still have anything to do here?”
“N-no.” He Maozhen couldn’t stay any longer.
After being criticized by a junior and not being able to retaliate, how could he not be angry from embarra.s.sment?
In the past, he would have really dared to argue with Duan Linbai. But now…
He couldn’t afford to do it!
“In that case, let’s go out together. Don’t affect the patient’s rest. The doctor said that she needs to recuperate. If there’s nothing, it’s better for you not to disturb her.”
He Maozhen clenched his fists. Weren’t you the one chattering non-stop? Now you’re saying that I’m disturbing her?
He had never seen such an arrogant and shameless person before.
Duan Linbai didn’t send them off at all and instead sent the doctor out.
After He Maozhen left, he was hopping mad.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare a brat who’s still wet behind the ears talk to me like that?!” He cursed at Duan Linbai with all kinds of vulgarities.
He s.h.i.+qing lowered her head and remained silent.
Duan Linbai hummed a little tune and returned to the ward, feeling extremely good.
Yesterday, Third Fu and Hanchuan didn’t bring me to play. Didn’t I show off majestically today and slap someone’s face?
Even if you don’t bring me to play together in the future, I can play well by myself!
