Chapter 711: Give You a Warning
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
General Manager Zhou was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat. “Young Master Li, do you recognize this child?”
Li Lei smiled meaningfully. “Not only do I know him, but I’m also really familiar with him. Oh yes, I forgot to introduce you to him. This is Ye Shaohui, and his guardian is Ye Xingling.”
This time, not only General Manager Zhou, the other adults who scoffed at Shaohui broke out in cold sweat. They were not afraid of Ye Xingling but her rumored relationship with Li Lei. Although the entertainment industry was always filled with half-truths, there was no smoke without fire. They would not believe that there was nothing between her and Li Lei.
Offending the child of Young Master’s beloved woman...
Although their relationship was complicated, it was still frightening.
General Manager Zhou anxiously explained. “Young master Li, I’m only joking with this child. Don’t take it to heart.”
“Oh? Joking?” Li Lei smiled faintly. Under the sun, the sharp knife scar on his cheek was horrifying. “How about I joke with you too? Kneel down in front of this child and kowtow three times to acknowledge your mistake.”
General Manager Zhou looked awkwardly at him. He was a prideful man, and wanting him to kowtow in front of this small child was as awful as taking away his life. He hesitated. “This, Young Master Li... How about you don’t make things difficult for me...”
“Don’t make this difficult for you?” Li Lei continued to smile faintly. “That’s right. I’ve never been someone who made things difficult for others. Just forget about the kowtowing.”
“Thank you, Young Master Li. Thank you, Young master Li.” General Manager Zhou wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and drew a long breath. It was so easy to convince Yong Master Li. Pfft! He thought that the little bastard had a high position in Young Master Li’s heart, but it was not very impressive. It seemed that Young Master Li was not very serious about Ye Xingling.
With this thought, he became more relaxed.
Li Lei ignored him and lowered his head to look at Shaohui. “Shaohui, are you ok?” His was very gentle, which was a huge contrast to the vicious way he spoke just now.
As soon as he arrived, Shaohui was looking everywhere for the veterinarian he was supposed to bring along to save his pony. However, he could not find anyone at all. Just as he was about to turn around again, he realized that the veterinarian who refused to treat his pony just now was kneeling beside his pony, fully focused on treating it.
“Did Uncle Li call that veterinarian to treat my pony?” The child was very smart and guessed it at once.
Li Lei smiled and touched his forehead. “Silly child, looking for another veterinarian wouldn’t be as fast as asking the veterinarian who is already here.” He put down the phone and asked about the situation immediately. Once he realized that it was a big accident and there was a veterinarian present, he directly asked to use him.
As for the survival of the other horses?
As a person who had been on the battlefield for so many years, he had long lost his compassionate heart. In a dire situation with a lack of resources, he would give priority to those he loved.
Shaohui, who was his son, understood what he meant very quickly.
“Thank you, Uncle Li.” He said.
After that, he immediately ran towards his pony to look after it.
Li Lei was left alone to face General Manager Zhou, Du Zheng, and the others.
Li Lei asked Du Zheng, “What exactly happened?” He had been friends with the Du Family for a long time and knew that Du Zheng was a clear-headed child.
Du Zheng said, “I took Ahqiang and the others for horseback riding. The weather and road conditions were good, so we were riding the horses at a faster speed than usual. Unexpectedly, as we were rushing out of the forest, we saw that small idi... Shaohui. Lanlan’s horse was frightened, then all of the horses behind became scared. Ahqiang’s horse lost control and started to charge at Shaohui. This child is so silly...”
Du Zheng paused for a moment and tried to mend his statement. “I mean that Ahqiang is silly.” In reality, he said that Shaohui was silly, but in front of Li Lei, he sang a different tune.
General Manager Zhou was speechless.
Li Lei didn’t know how to respond.
“Continue.” Li Lei looked at Du Zheng.
Thus, Du Zheng continued the story. “Shaohui did not hide in time. It was his pony that saved him as it pushed him aside at that crucial moment and became injured.”
Li Lei narrowed his eyes. “Ahqiang? Whose child is he?”
General Manager Zhou looked at General Manager Zhou.
General Manager Zhou, whose mood had just improved slightly, started to sweat heavily again. “It’s mine. It’s my worthless son. Young Master Li, please forgive us. On the behalf that this child is young, don’t be calculative with him, ok?”
Li Lei said lightly, “I don’t need to be calculative.”
After that, he walked towards Shaohui and his pony.
Looking at his back view, General Manager Zhou quickly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. His secretary patted him on the chest and said, “Oh my god, I almost died of fright. Luckily, Young Master Li is easy to speak with and didn’t make things difficult for you.”
“It seems that my old face has some status in this world.” Although General Manager Zhou was shocked, he was quite smug. After offending Young Master Li, he was still able to get out unscathed. He was probably the only one to do that in the world.
The accompanying staff also agreed and tried to flatter General Manager Zhou.
At the side, Du Zheng looked pitifully at General Manager Zhou. “On the behalf of Ahqiang, Uncle Zhou, don’t blame me for not warning you. Li Lei might seem agreeable on the surface, but the previous person who offended him and was understated by him... That family is still living in the streets, right?”
“What... what?!” General Manager Zhou was baffled.
Du Zheng said, “My Third Uncle said before that Uncle Li only doesn’t bother to talk nonsense with irrelevant people when he’s truly angry. That’s because there’s nothing to say to a family that’s about to be destroyed.”
General Manager Zhou started to shiver. “It... can’t be right?” His face was pale and he forced a smile. “Young Master Du, you aren’t joking with me right?”
“I will only say this. It’s up to you to believe it or not.” Du Zheng said and left. He did not have the habit of cleaning up the mess of these lowly figures. He was already benevolent for warning him. As for whether he could save General Manager Zhou, it would depend on what General Manager Zhou did next.
General Manager Zhou stood rooted in his spot. He was in a tough situation.
Everyone looked nervously at one another. Just now, they praised General Manager Zhou because they wanted to curry favor with him. Unexpectedly, the tables turned very quickly. It turned out that Li Lei was not calculative but viciously calculative. That’s why he was too lazy to speak with General Manager Zhou.
“How could it be...” Remembering about the three kowtows, General Manager Zhou suddenly had a trace of hope in his heart. “Young Master Du also said Young Master Li is too lazy to talk nonsense when he is truly angry. However, how can he be truly angry when this child was adopted by another woman?”
“Yes, exactly.” At this time, his secretary was also convinced. “He’s also not his biological son, so how is it worth the effort? In my opinion, Young Master Li definitely doesn’t want to care about this child. However, this child is his beloved Ye Xingling’s adopted son, so he has no choice. Thus, he acted this way and let you off easily.”
