The Abandoned Young Master of a Wealthy Cultivation Family

Chapter 226: Eight hundred million for a face?

At this point, the atmosphere in the hall had become depressing.

As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it. Although things have not yet developed to that point, there is already such a momentum---

This was clearly a dinner party for Su Bai's appointment as the Inspector of the Heavenly Palace. If this caused the bigwigs in Jinling City to unite and exclude him, his identity as the Inspector would become a mere title.

After all, even the Heavenly Palace needs the support of these political and business leaders.

Chen Xiuqi's face had become expressionless at this point, but those who knew him well knew that he was truly angry.

Although Su Bai's previous words were inappropriate, he was there today after all. These people didn't even give him any face. It was really unreasonable.

Especially this Shen Daoru. Although the old man from the Jinling Chamber of Commerce and the provincial head of secret techniques had high status, their reputation and influence were still far inferior to Shen Daoru and Zheng Yucheng.

Zheng Yucheng and Su Bai have a deep grudge against each other, so naturally they would not miss this opportunity to target Su Bai. However, Shen Daoru had not heard of having any major grudges against Su Bai, but now he chose to add fuel to the fire in such an occasion. It can be said that he was directly standing on the opposite side of Su Bai.

Facts have proved that Shen Daoru's influence is indeed very great. Among the people present, including Duan Tianlu and Xiang Xudong, his influence in Jinling City and even Jiangnan Province can be ranked among the top five.

There is no other reason. He started from scratch and in just over a decade he built the Rudao Group with a market value of nearly 100 billion yuan. Its fame is so huge that it is in no way inferior to those old and wealthy families.

As soon as he spoke, the faces of the people in the audience changed. While talking in low voices, they had already made a decision - this kid from Jiangzhou has been too arrogant recently and he really needs to be suppressed!

However, before they could make any move, Su Bai, who had been standing next to Shen Daoru with a cold look on his face, suddenly said this to him.

Stay?

Could it be that Su Bai has given in?

Everyone's eyes fell on Su Bai and Shen Daoru, their faces full of surprise and suspicion.

Chen Xiuqi raised his eyebrows but said nothing - he knew that Su Bai was a person who would give in to soft words but not to hard ones. How could these people intimidate him and make him bow his head?

Shen Daoru's face showed no change. He looked up at Su Bai and said, "Why, Inspector Su, is there anything else?"

Su Bai smiled faintly and said, "If there is nothing, can't I talk to Mr. Shen?"

"Mr. Su just said that he has something to do later. Doesn't that mean he doesn't need to go?"

"The next thing can be postponed---" Su Bai walked up to Shen Daoru with a smile and said lightly: "It's the private matter between Mr. Shen and I that has been delayed for a long time. It should be concluded today!"

Although there was no change on Shen Daoru's face, his heart suddenly sank.

He frowned, took a deep breath, and looked directly at Su Bai, "What do you mean, Mr. Su? I don't remember any private matters between us."

"Haha, Mr. Shen is really a forgetful person---" Su Bai smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Shen still owes me 500 million! Add to that the 335 million that your son lost to me in the underground boxing match, and the total is 835 million!"

"I told Master Shen that day to pay it back within three days, but now more than ten days have passed, and I still haven't seen a dime. I guess Master Shen and Mr. Shen think that I, Su Bai, am young and talkative, and don't take my words to heart?"

Ignoring Shen Daoru's increasingly unpleasant expression, Su Bai said to himself, "Now is a perfect opportunity. In front of Elder Chen and so many seniors from Jinling City, let's resolve this matter once and for all. What do you think, Mr. Shen?"

As soon as he said this, Shen Daoru's breathing became more rapid and his face turned ashen.

Everyone in the hall who was ready to make a move looked at the two of them in shock - Shen Daoru actually owed Su Bai money?

Moreover, they still owe more than 800 million?

How can this be?

But looking at Shen Daoru's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying.

Everyone was shocked and no longer dared to take sides.

The old man who walked to the door and Zheng Yucheng and the other two saw this and their eyes were filled with gloom. They also stopped and waited for the development of the situation.

Since Shen Daoru didn't leave, the people in the hall would no longer follow him. Even if the three of them left, it would not have much impact on Su Bai.

"What's going on?" Before Shen Daoru could say anything, Duan Tianlu looked at him gloomily and asked in a deep voice, "How come you owe Mr. Su so much money?"

In a sense, Daoru Group was supported by their Duan family, and the Duan family also holds a considerable stake in Daoru Group. Now Shen Daoru is trying every possible means to break away from the control of the Duan family. More than 800 million is not a small amount. Is this guy trying to transfer assets secretly?

Otherwise, what's the matter with these more than 800 million?

Hearing his slightly questioning tone, Shen Daoru frowned and felt very dissatisfied.

Why didn't I see you so anxious when Su Bai blackmailed me and broke my son's leg? Now, you know you're anxious when I talk about money?

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He still needed the support of the Duan family to deal with Su Bai.

To calm himself down, he took a deep breath and explained a few words to Duan Tianlu in a low voice.

After listening to Shen Daoru's explanation, Duan Tianlu's face turned ugly.

This Su Bai is really too much!

Breaking Shen Liwen's legs wasn't enough, but he actually dared to ask for so much money from the Shen family?

Especially after knowing that Shen Daoru had already paid Su Bai a check of 500 million, he became even more furious.

Now the Rudao Group has not separated from the Duan family, and every penny it pays out will also belong to the Duan family.

Duan Qingshu suffered a great loss in front of Su Bai. He was afraid of Su Bai's strength and chose to make a small matter. But now that the family interests are involved, he must stand up!

"Mr. Su, 830 million is not a small amount. I wonder if you have any evidence?" Duan Tianlu said calmly: "So much time has passed. If you expect the Shen family to pay such a large sum of money just based on Mr. Su's words, isn't it a bit too much?"

Su Bai smiled noncommittally upon hearing this and said, "Then what does Mr. Duan think we should do?"

Duan Tianlu smiled faintly and said, "It's very simple. I know there was a small misunderstanding between the Shen family and Mr. Su. Today, in front of Elder Chen, Miss Xia, and all the heads of the families in Jinling City, how about Mr. Su do Duan a favor and let this matter go?"

As soon as he said this, the faces of everyone in the hall instantly became interesting.

Duan Tianlu is really shameless. He charges more than 800 million for a face. Even if he is a master, he is probably not worth this price!

However, with the Duan family's 'Rain Man Sword' here, although his reputation is not worth 800 million, it is not easy to offend him. The only thing is, will Su Bai choose to suffer this loss in silence?

If he doesn't accept it, he will completely fall out with the Duan family. Although Su Bai is powerful, the Duan family's Rain Man Sword is the best master in Jiangnan Province and a recognized god-like figure. No matter how evil Su Bai is, such a legendary figure is definitely not comparable to him, a teenager!

As everyone's expressions changed, a smile of watching the fun appeared on his face.

Tsk tsk, now things are getting more and more interesting.
