Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Encounter Attack
"Dongfang Jian, what are you doing here!" Su Xiaorou stormed out of the elevator, her face flushed with anger. She had received a report from her subordinate that Dongfang Jian had arrived and gotten into an argument with Gao Fei. Upon hearing this, Su Xiaorou was furious and hurriedly came down.
"Xiaorou..." As soon as he saw Su Xiaorou, Dongfang Jian's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Please call me by my full name!" Su Xiaorou's face was somewhat gloomy, "Dongfang Jian, what are you doing at my company?"
"I came to find him!" Dongfang Jian pointed at Gao Fei, "I heard this kid was pestering you, so I came to warn him to recognize his place. A penniless nobody dares to have designs on you; he's truly courting death."
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Su Xiaorou glared fiercely at Dongfang Jian, "Gao Fei has never bothered me, and our relationship is completely innocent... Even if there were something between me and Gao Fei, it's none of your business."
If it were anyone else yelling at him, Dongfang Jian would have slapped them already, but facing Su Xiaorou, he was unusually patient. He couldn't help it; he had fallen for Su Xiaorou. When confronting the woman he loved, making some concessions was only right.
"Xiaorou, what are you saying? I am your boyfriend!" Dongfang Jian said with wide eyes, "I have an obligation to protect you..."
"Keep spouting nonsense and I'll have security throw you out," Su Xiaorou said huffily, "The most we can be considered is friends, and even then, just ordinary friends."
"Xiaorou..."
"Call me by my full name!"
"...You should know how I feel about you, I really like you, and Uncle also thinks highly of us together..."
"Please leave now! Don't disturb my work!" Su Xiaorou issued an eviction notice without mercy, "Leave immediately!"
"Look at you, getting angry after barely saying two words," Dongfang Jian pouted, "Fine, if you don't welcome me, then I'll leave... But before I go, I have a few words for this Mr. Gao."
"What are you trying to do!" Su Xiaorou's eyes widened.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to say a few words." Dongfang Jian raised his head, looking straight into Gao Fei's eyes, "A woman like Xiaorou is not someone you can touch! If you don't want to die an ugly death, then behave yourself. If I hear about you pestering Xiaorou again, I'll break your legs. That's all I wanted to say. Xiaorou, goodbye! Come hang out with me when you're free!" After waving at Su Xiaorou, Dongfang Jian left in his flashy sports car.
Dominant, arrogant!
That was the attitude Dongfang Jian exhibited. In his eyes, Gao Fei was nothing but a lowly poor guy. With just a flick of his finger, Dongfang Jian could squash Gao Fei.
"Gao Fei, I'm sorry for causing you trouble," Su Xiaorou said with a look of apology.
Gao Fei remained calm, at least on the surface, there was no sign of anger: "Is he really your boyfriend?"
"No," Su Xiaorou shook her head, "I don't like him at all! But the guy is so shameless, always pestering me, causing me much distress." She paused, then added, "Don't take him too seriously, with me here, he won't dare to make things difficult for you."
Gao Fei nodded, "If there's nothing else, I'll get back to work." After saying that, Gao Fei walked away with steady steps.
"That Dongfang Jian is getting more and more intolerable!" Su Xiaorou stated hatefully, "One day I must give him a good lesson." Like her, Dongfang Jian was also a super-rich second generation, very arrogant and had a loud reputation in Bright Pearl City.
...
After Dongfang Jian drove off, he picked up his phone and dialed a number: "Ah Long, I need you to teach someone a lesson... His name is Gao Fei, the Head of Security at Su Group... Yeah, just a light lesson... Ok, I'll wait for your news." After hanging up, a cold smile played at the corners of Dongfang Jian's mouth: "Daring to fancy my woman, he really doesn't know how perilous it is."
Su Xiaorou was the wife he had marked for himself, anyone who dared to pursue her would face his fierce retaliation.
It was precisely because of Dongfang Jian, the guardian, that Su Xiaorou's surroundings were so deserted. Even if there were men interested in Su Xiaorou, out of fear of Dongfang Jian's authority, they wouldn't dare to make a move.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to leave work.
Gao Fei gathered his things and stood up to leave the office. Just as he stepped out of the company's main entrance, a gang of people rushed over from the diagonal opposite side. A bunch of young men dressed in a ruffian style, each holding a club, swarmed towards him, swinging their clubs fiercely at Gao Fei.
Gao Fei's expression darkened. Adopting a stance, he began to fight with the young men. Ever since he obtained the Demon God Heritage, his body had become stronger by the day, and his strength had increased significantly. Now, fighting against these young men, he was not at a disadvantage at all.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Clang clang clang..."
Within a short moment, several young men were knocked to the ground, while Gao Fei suffered only minor injuries.
"Scram!" Gao Fei kicked a young man flying, then turned around and threw a punch right into another young man's nose, "Crack!" A clear snapping sound followed, and the young man immediately covered his nose, wailing miserably, without a doubt, his nasal bone must have been broken.
"Trouble! Retreat quickly!" The leader of the young men saw the situation turn sour and ran off, the others also scrambled away in panic, and in the blink of an eye, the scene was left with only Gao Fei standing there.
Gao Fei stood in place, his face terrifyingly somber.
Who were these people? Why did they attack him? Could it be because of Dongfang Jian? Or were they sent by Miao Kui and Head of Security Liu? In the span of a moment, many thoughts flashed through Gao Fei's mind.
Dongfang Jian was the most suspicious! He had just threatened him in the afternoon, and then he encountered an attack in the evening! How could there be such a coincidence? If it wasn't for his acquisition of the Demon God Heritage, he might have been in danger today.
Damn it!
Do they really think I'm that easy to bully?
Dongfang Jian, just wait for me, one day, I'll make you kneel at my feet and beg for mercy!
At that moment, a group of security guards ran out from the company, showing Gao Fei concern, with a few of the guards even clamoring to chase after the lawless young men! Seeing the righteous indignation of these guards, Gao Fei found it somewhat amusing. They must have noticed the attack at the company's entrance earlier, but they didn't come out to help him until much later. Were they afraid, or did they deliberately want to see him in trouble? Though dissatisfied, Gao Fei did not show it; everyone has the right to choose, to help him was a favor, not helping was their duty.
A little while later, Su Xiaorou also came out, her face full of anxiety as she looked at Gao Fei: "I heard you were attacked by a group of strangers? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Gao Fei could feel that Su Xiaorou was genuinely concerned about him, much better than those hypocritical security guards. He shook his head: "I have some minor injuries, I'll just apply some medicated wine at home, no need to go to the hospital."
Seeing that Gao Fei was alright, Su Xiaorou was relieved: "Who was it? Who attacked you?"
Gao Fei shook his head: "I don't know them! By their looks, they seemed like a bunch of thugs. I don't know why I offended them."
"Could it be Dongfang Jian's doing?" Su Xiaorou also thought of this possibility, and the more she thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case. She knew Dongfang Jian too well; he was a lawless man. No, I must ask him, Su Xiaorou took out her phone and called Dongfang Jian, after loudly questioning him, she ended the call, her brows furrowed tightly: "Dongfang Jian denied it! He said if he wanted to deal with you, he has plenty of methods and would never use such despicable ones."
"Let's call the police." Gao Fei didn't want to let it go: "Let the police investigate!" With that, Gao Fei took out his phone and called the police. A few minutes later, the police arrived, asked about what happened, and then left, promising that they would solve the case as soon as possible.
"For safety reasons, I should take you home," Su Xiaorou suggested.
"There's no need to bother." Gao Fei shook his head: "I can take the bus home by myself..." After declining Su Xiaorou's kindness, Gao Fei turned and walked away. The moment he turned, his expression instantly became extremely grim, his eyes flickering with a terrifying fierce light.
This incident absolutely could not be left at that!
...
"Heavenly Mansion Garden" is a famous rich enclave where all the residents are high-status, wealthy magnates.
In the center of the district stood a three-story villa with an arched gate, oval windows, and glittering glazed roof tiles. The villa was surrounded by a variety of flowers and plants, and from afar, it looked so beautiful and charming.
The owner of this villa was Dongfang Jian.
He was currently throwing a tantrum, pointing at his bodyguard Ah Long's nose and cursing furiously: "Are you just here to eat for free? Can't even handle such a trivial matter! What a useless piece of trash! A rice bucket! A bastard!"
Bodyguard Ah Long hung his head low, not daring to say a word, feeling wronged inside. He had followed Dongfang Jian's orders, hiring a bunch of thugs to deal with someone named Gao Fei, and a dozen men should have been more than enough. But in the end... the dozen or so thugs were all beaten and chased away while Gao Fei was left unharmed... Hearing this news, bodyguard Ah Long was stunned. He knew he had underestimated the enemy; to be precise, Dongfang Jian had not made Gao Fei's capabilities clear, leading to his misjudgment. If he had known that Gao Fei was a formidable fighter, he would have hired more capable people to deal with him, and they wouldn't have ended up with this result.
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
Just then, the phone suddenly vibrated. Dongfang Jian casually picked up the phone and answered: "Hello... Yes, it's me... What? That loser actually called the police? Alright, you've had a tough time this round, I'll treat you to a meal another day... Okay, bye." Dongfang Jian threw the phone on the coffee table and sneered: "Can you believe it! That little loser actually went to the police! Too bad he didn't realize that I'm good friends with Vice Director Chen of the police department. With Vice Director Chen around, the police wouldn't dare to meddle in this affair."
