Chapter 16 The Richest Man



Along the way, Ye Ling cast a strange glance at that BMW.

"What\'s the matter, it\'s your first time seeing such a luxury car that you can\'t even walk properly?" Liu Qian sneered.

"Huh, it is indeed the first time I\'ve seen this; isn\'t this car used? Then why does the license plate still have the green \'novice\' sign?" Ye Ling squinted, his expression mocking as he looked towards Lin Dong.

"Huh, I had some issues with my driver\'s license a couple of days ago; I\'ve just had it reissued, that\'s why the plate is now a novice one," Lin Dong waved his hand, then sneered, "You don\'t think I can\'t afford a new car and bought a used one, do you?"

"Young Master Lin, why bother talking to this pauper? He can\'t afford a nice car himself, so he assumes everyone else is like him!" Liu Qian disdainfully glanced at Ye Ling, then scolded Su Rou, "Su Rou, you better control your husband. It\'s bad enough that he has no capability, he shouldn\'t be jealous of Young Master Lin all the time!"

With that, she stomped her foot and pulled Lin Dong forward.

As the two entered the club\'s lobby, they bumped into an old man dressed in a Tang suit. Liu Qian eyed him and scoffed disdainfully, "Watch where you\'re going. Didn\'t you see my Cartier bag? If you\'ve damaged it, can you afford it?"

The old man frowned, glanced at the bag in her hand, and said coldly, "Cartier\'s latest Royal Princess collection isn\'t sold on the market. Only certified star customers are qualified to purchase it. The bag in your hand is clearly a counterfeit from a factory."

Liu Qian\'s face stiffened, and then she raised her neck and shouted angrily, "Who do you think you are? Just because you say it\'s not for sale, it isn\'t? You better pay up quickly, or I\'ll call someone!"

"Young Master Lin, don\'t you know Captain Wang from the Six Doors Organization? Quickly call him and have this old fool arrested!" Liu Qian looked at Lin Dong with an arrogant air.

However, the latter was sweating profusely, shaking his head at her, "Liu Qian, apologize to this gentleman quickly!"

"Lin Dong, what are you afraid of? This old guy dresses so shabbily, he\'s clearly just as poor as Ye Ling!" Liu Qian sneered contemptuously, moving to grab the old man by the neck.

Behind her, Lin Dong\'s face turned furious, and with a slap, "Oh!" he struck her face, yelling angrily, "Have you lost your mind, daring to lay hands on Lord Li?"

"Lord Li, which Lord Li?" Liu Qian, holding her face, looked aggrieved.

"The richest man, President Li Tianqing of the Chamber of Commerce!" Lin Dong gritted his teeth in anger, grabbed Liu Qian\'s neck, forced her to kneel on the ground, and trembled, "Lord Li, this woman acted recklessly, she has nothing to do with me, please, don\'t involve me!"

"Hmph!" Li Tianqing coldly eyed them both, took a cigar from beside him, had someone bring over an Eight Immortals chair to sit down, then coldly said, "The thing I hate most in life is dogs that look down on people. When I was penniless and my family was starving, a benefactor saved me and gave me startup capital. That\'s how I, Li Tianqing, got to where I am today!"

"Lord Li, why bother with these two dogs? Just cripple them and throw them out from the third floor. I guarantee no hospital will dare to take them in!" The club manager said coldly, raising his hand to signal his men to take action.

Liu Qian was so frightened that cold sweat poured down her face. She knelt on the ground and knocked her head so hard against the floor that she left a bloody mark, clutching Li Tianqing\'s trouser legs as she pleaded, "Master Tian, please spare me, I truly didn\'t know your identity!"

Lin Dong was also scared out of his wits and hurriedly stepped forward, handing over a business card while bowing deeply, "Master Tian, I\'m Lin Dong, the founder of Cloud Peak Fund, I\'ve met you once at a chamber of commerce meeting. Please, for the sake of that acquaintance, spare my life?"

"Cloud Peak Fund, what the hell is that?" Li Tianqing snorted coldly, tossing the business card into a trash bin and then waved his hand to signal his men to start.

Liu Qian and the other person collapsed on the ground, with a look of pleading for help to those around them. Several old classmates who were watching, as if they did not recognize them, quickly stepped back several paces.

Su Rou and Ye Ling also walked in. Su Rou, feeling some compassion, bit her lip and rushed forward, bowing her hands to Li Tianqing, "Master Tian, these two are my classmates, please, for the sake of the Su family, spare them this once!"

"The Su family, Su Dingguo the old master, you mean?" Li Tianqing thought for a moment, then shook his head, "No, not even if Mr. Su himself came forward, let alone you, a junior."

"This…" Su Rou was visibly troubled, and she turned to look at Ye Ling behind her, then begged, "Ye Ling, didn\'t you say you know Li Tianqing? Could you please plead with him to let Qianqian and the others off the hook? After all, they are my classmates!"

Although she felt Ye Ling might have been boasting, she still had a faint feeling that Ye Ling did seem to know Li Tianqing.

"Su Rou, don\'t be foolish here. How could Ye Ling, this guy, possibly know Master Tian?" Several classmates present shook their heads and looked at him with disdain.

"Heh, I truly don\'t know any \'Master Tian.\' I just know a guy called Old Li, who used to set up a stall selling dumplings in a small border town," Ye Ling said with a light laugh and a nod, his voice carrying a firm undertone.

"Ye Ling, what are you babbling about? Master Tian is the richest man; how could he possibly sell dumplings? Have you gone mad?" The people around cried out loudly, and the manager working for Li Tianqing approached with a stern face, scolding, "How dare you! Who do you think you are to call Master Tian \'Old Li,\' and accuse him of selling dumplings? Kneel down and apologize at once, or we\'ll throw you out!"

Before the words were fully out, two towering men advanced towards him and reached violently for his shoulders.

Su Rou turned pale, emitting a cry of despair.

Liu Qian and Lin Dong, on the other hand, wore expressions of schadenfreude, eager to immediately see Ye Ling\'s arms twisted and his embarrassing ejection from the hall.

But at that moment, Li Tianqing suddenly trembled, sprang up from his chair, and stepped forward to intercept them, saying urgently, "Stop, I said stop!"

"Master Tian, this boy is slandering you!" The two strong men were puzzled, their eyes filled with resentment.

"Nonsense!" Li Tianqing\'s face darkened; he stepped forward and delivered two resounding slaps, sending the two strong men reeling before turning to bow to Ye Ling, "I apologize for my servants\' lack of discipline, and I ask for Young Master Ye\'s forgiveness!"

His expression was animated, and had there not been so many people around, he would have immediately knelt before Ye Ling.
