「Meanwhile, on the other side.」
At Li Quan’s house, he was sitting on the sofa, messaging his friends in an attempt to find out information about Luofeng. Li Quan had a bit of insight; one look at Luofeng and he knew this was not someone to be trifled with. So he decided to investigate first. If Luofeng turned out to be truly formidable, then he would just pretend this incident never happened, and it would soon vanish like smoke into the wind.
Fortunately, Luofeng was unaware of his thoughts; otherwise, Luofeng would have laughed so hard he snorted like a pig.
Vanish like smoke into the wind? Possible? Not a chance!
Li Quan’s social circle was definitely not as powerful as Luofeng’s. Before Li Quan could even figure out Luofeng’s background, his family’s enterprise was already being decisively dealt with.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, General Hu!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Hua quickly began to think. Had he recently offended anyone? Because such calls had already come three times.
The first one was from Jiamei Company. Although they were just a backup supplier, they were diligently working towards becoming a primary one and were close to becoming a secondary supplier. But now, before even securing that position, they were being dropped as even a backup? Who could he even complain to about this? A 5% share, gone just like that?
But that was just the first piece of bad news; the second was from another construction company, and the third was from a small real estate firm.
Why exactly is this happening? Why? Could it be...?
Suddenly, Li Hua turned his gaze towards his son on the sofa. Since returning home today, the young man had been restless, constantly making and receiving calls, even stepping out onto the balcony to do so. Clearly, something was going on.
"Li Quan, did you go and offend someone important out there?" Li Hua asked bluntly. After all, as his father, he knew his son’s character all too well.
"No, Dad! I just got back today. How could I have offended anyone?" Li Quan was startled for a moment but then lied through his teeth.
"Are you sure?"
"Really, I didn’t, Dad!"
"Let me tell you about our family’s current situation," Li Hua began, and soon he had relayed the details of those three calls to his son.
"Dad!"
The more Li Quan listened, the darker his expression became. Could it be? That person from the airport.
"Dad, could it be him?"
"Who?" As his heart suddenly raced, Li Hua knew his worthless son had stirred up trouble.
"Well, at the airport, I had an encounter with someone..." Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Li Quan became honest and recounted the entire incident.
Had he embellished anything, or left something out? After all, according to Li Quan’s version, he had wanted to get to know Bai Ningbing, her boyfriend had aggressively cursed at him, and he had cursed back. But was that really what happened? That’s why Li Hua was a bit skeptical.
"Bullshit! More like you saw a pretty girl, harassed her, and got taught a lesson by her boyfriend, right?" Li Hua said, exasperated by his son’s incorrigibility. "Do you even know the guy’s name?"
"Luofeng? I think that was his name!" Li Quan replied honestly.
"Luofeng? The ’Luo’ of ’Luoshui River,’ and the ’Feng’ of ’Feng Shui’?"
"Yes, that’s the one!"
"Sigh." Li Hua, despite his dark expression, seemed to possess considerable self-control, his emotions not outwardly turbulent. "You’ve really caused a huge disaster this time!"
"Ah? Dad, don’t scare me!"
"Don’t you remember what I told you about the West City project? A seemingly insignificant company actually managed to secure a five percent share?"

Li Quan knew she was his father’s mistress. He’d wanted to get a piece of that action himself. But then again, such things were contemptible; best to forget it.
"General Li, what should we do now?" The secretary was panicking. If the boss’s company went under, where would she get the promised BMW X5? And the LV bag? Her personal ATM would be gone!
Li Hua’s gaze was somewhat vacant. He had struggled for over twenty years to build his business to its current prosperity. Was it all now going to be for nothing, like drawing water with a bamboo basket?
From what the secretary had reported, unless Luo Lin chose to let bygones be bygones, their company was undoubtedly doomed this time.
