"This kid, how dare he, how dare he?"

Xiao Hong’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.

On the other end of the phone was the President! The top figure of the Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association! Even among all the associations, he was one of the strongest!

But Chen Fan’s words just now showed no respect whatsoever and even had a hint of threat.

Did he think that the President couldn’t do anything to him just because they were separated by a network line?

Sun Wei watched Chen Fan, thinking to himself that he knew this wouldn’t end so easily.

However, if Chen goes on like this, it would strain his future relationship with the headquarters. After all, that was the President!

"Brother Chen, were you talking to me?"

To everyone’s surprise, Shi Tao’s tone was calm, not angry at all.

"Yes, Brother Chen. I think you should listen to Xiao Hong’s explanation," Chang Fei quickly said.

He knew the President was protective of his people, especially since he regarded Ling Yu as his successor. The two were not father and son but had a father-son bond. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

He had a hunch that the President might already know the inside story, which was why he didn’t want to pursue it further.

However, Brother Chen seemed determined to get to the bottom of this. Avoiding it won’t solve the problem.

And excessively indulging and favoring Ling Yu, would that really cultivate a martial arts strongman capable of saving the Human Race from peril?

If possible, he hoped this incident would teach Ling Yu a harsh lesson, making him realize the world doesn’t revolve around him.

Xiao Hong was on edge again.

After a full three seconds, Shi Tao slowly uttered one word, "Okay."

Chang Fei looked at Xiao Hong, his tone strict: "Repeat to the President what you told me before. Leave nothing out, understood?"

"U-understood."

Xiao Hong was like a wilting eggplant, deflated.

So he started again, recounting everything without any omission.

"President, it’s true I made a mistake, a big mistake, and I admit it. But if it wasn’t for Ling Yu approaching me and seducing me with words, I wouldn’t have made such a big mistake, President."

After speaking, Xiao Hong was a crying and snot-filled mess.

The room was deathly silent.

Everyone awaited the response from the other end of the phone.

"Okay, I’ll go talk to him. I’ll call you back later."

Shi Tao said and then hung up the phone.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

Chang Fei felt a headache coming on but still managed a smile, looking at Chen Fan: "Brother Chen, you heard what the President said. Please wait a moment, and rest assured, the headquarters will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

"Really?"

Chen Fan’s expression was indifferent.

"Yes, it’s true, Brother Chen."

Chang Fei said hurriedly.

But in fact, he had no idea what would happen.

If the President wanted to give Chen Fan a satisfactory explanation, he could just turn on the speakerphone. After all, Ling Yu was right beside him; having him face Xiao Hong directly would suffice.

But the President didn’t do that; instead, he hung up the phone.

What happens next is uncertain.

Xiao Hong licked his lips, filled with regret.

This feeling of being at the mercy of others was truly awful.

In a quiet room.

Shi Tao hung up the phone, turning to survey Ling Yu in front of him.

The latter sat on a cushion, forcing a calm smile: "Master, why are you looking at me like that? Did Uncle Chang call you? What did he say on the phone?"

"Do you really want to know?"

Shi Tao asked.

Ling Yu’s heart trembled.

In his memory, such expressions from his master usually came when he was being scolded.

In other words, something must have gone wrong on Xiao Hong’s side, not only failing but also letting Uncle Chang know.

Uncle Chang had called the master to accuse him?

Damn Xiao Hong, betraying him immediately after being caught? He really didn’t put him in his eyes.

Anger surged in his heart, but on the surface, he forced a smile: "Yes, I kind of want to know. But if it’s classified, then I’d rather not know."

Shi Tao looked at him, bluntly asking: "Was Xiao Hong sent by you?"

"M-master, what are you talking about? I don’t understand."

Ling Yu tried to put on a perplexed expression, but his body trembled, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Do you think you can fool me with your acting?"

Shi Tao squinted.

Ling Yu felt struck by lightning. The next moment, he fell to his knees, choking with sobs: "Master, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have targeted that Alchemist or sent Xiao Hong. But my intentions were good!"

"Good intentions?"

Shi Tao sneered.

"Yes, Master."
