Chapter 55 The Power Behind Her?
Seeing that Lin Xi remained unmoved, Liu Fei clenched his teeth tightly, as if he had done a great deal of persuasion.
With a thud, Liu Fei knelt down, head bowed. "Sister Xi, I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have flirted with you and even hit you. Please forgive me this time. I will definitely follow your lead from now on. Please be merciful."
The people in the private room were all shocked. They never thought she could push Young Master Liu to this point. At this moment, their gazes toward Lin Xi were no longer casual; they all became serious.
If Lin Xi hadn't seen the sinister look in his eyes, she would have really thought he was sincerely apologizing.
Lin Xi didn't want to waste any more time with him. She put down her snacks, gently lifted her eyelids, and glanced indifferently at Liu Fei. An invisible force emanated from her. "I told you, I gave you a chance."
Seeing Lin Xi's unyielding attitude, a ruthless glint flashed in Liu Shao's eyes. He slowly stood up, his previous humility gone. He clapped his hands lightly, and the door to the private room opened, allowing a large group of people to rush in, carrying tools, and surround Lin Xi.
The other people in the private room immediately moved aside, afraid that Liu Fei might accidentally hurt them.
Ye Jinran didn't make a move. Looking at Lin Xi's calm expression, he knew she wouldn't do anything unprepared. He wanted to see how much of a shock and surprise she could give him.
Song Beishu didn't think so much and directly stood in front of Lin Xi to protect her with his actions.
Liu Fei looked at the woman in front of him, who was still sitting calmly, and a crazy expression appeared on his face.
Since begging you is useless, I'll arrest you, and then my Liu family can still exist. You forced me to do this.
Lin Xi suddenly smiled, gently stroking her watch. "Are you really sure you want to take action? Have you thought this through? Once you do, your Liu family will face more than just bankruptcy. Are you sure?"
Looking at her calm expression, Liu Fei's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation, but he quickly dismissed it. He didn't believe that she could take on so many people by herself; most of them were A-level bodyguards, with only a very few being B-level.
Seeing that he was surrounded by his men, Liu Fei was instantly filled with confidence and his tone became arrogant, "Stop bluffing. I don't believe you can take on all of you by yourself. Everyone, get on her! Whoever catches her will get 10 yuan."
As soon as Liu Fei finished speaking, the bodyguards around him excitedly prepared to take action.
"As long as you don't lay a hand on me, I'll give you a million each."
A cool, clear voice came from Lin Xi's mouth.
Liu Fei was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then burst into maniacal laughter, "These are bodyguards trained by our Liu family. You think they'll listen to you? You didn't originally intend for them to do that, did you? Well, you're going to be disappointed. Hahaha."
The bodyguards' hearts trembled when they heard the word "million," and in the end, they could only shake their heads regretfully and prepare to take action.
"3! 2! 1!" When Lin Xi counted to 1, Shi Xiaochi and the others burst through the door and surrounded Lin Xi.
Their demeanor was completely different from that of the Liu family's bodyguards. The Liu family's bodyguards only had a fierce aura, while Shi Xiaochi and his group exuded a chilling and murderous aura. It was obvious who was stronger and who was weaker.
"Young Miss," the three said in unison.
Lin Xi then stood up, looked at Liu Fei with a mocking gaze, as if looking at a clown.
Liu Fei was utterly shocked and staggered backward.
It's over, it's really over now.
"Young Master Liu, shall we continue?" the bodyguard next to him asked somewhat nervously.
Liu Fei looked at the bodyguards surrounding Lin Xi. There were three top-tier S-rank bodyguards, each worth at least ten A-rank bodyguards. How could he possibly fight them? He had top-tier S-rank bodyguards at home, but none of them were there to protect him.
Liu Fei's lips were full of bitterness, and his voice was low and hoarse, "No need."
He truly regretted it this time, but there was no second chance.
Lin Xi looked calmly at the others and said, "I'm really sorry for today. I've disturbed your fun. I'll head back now."
Then he looked at Ye Jinran and said, "Jinran, I'll head back now. I'm really sorry about today. I'll treat you another day."
"Xixi, this was originally my idea to organize this gathering, so I should be the one apologizing. I'll take care of everything else today, don't worry," Ye Jinran said apologetically.
Lin Xi shook her head. "It's something I have to solve myself. I can't always rely on you. It has nothing to do with you." Then she patted Song Beishu, who was still in a daze. "Beibei, let's go."
"Oh, okay." Song Beishu replied blankly, clearly still not recovered from the scene just now.
After Lin Xi and the others left, the people who had been shouting earlier finally came forward, especially Young Master Wang, who was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. His family was not much different from the Liu family, and he was the one who started the teasing. Fortunately, she didn't take it to heart, otherwise the Wang family would have been ruined.
Wang Shao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and made up his mind to stay away from Lin Xi whenever he saw her in the future. If he couldn't afford to offend her, couldn't he at least avoid her?
Ye Jinran looked at Lin Xi's departing figure, as if he couldn't see through her, mysterious and dangerous. His eyes flickered slightly.
Although their family could bankrupt the Liu family, it was obviously not that easy or quick. Besides, what family would arrange top-notch bodyguards for their younger generation, let alone three at once?
It seems I need to go back and inform my family.
The others also looked at Ye Jinran with varying thoughts. Memories flooded back. He had been involved in the family business since he was eight years old, including underground forces, leading the Ye family to prosperity. On the surface, they were still one of the four major families, but in reality, the Ye family held more authority. If it weren't for the checks and balances of the Wang, Liu, and Huang families, they would have been the number one family. At that time, he was known throughout Shanghai for his ruthlessness, and the younger generation in Shanghai implicitly regarded him as their leader. However, in recent years, his methods had become increasingly gentle, to the point that they had almost forgotten his past ruthlessness.
The way everyone looked at Ye Jinran was like a crescent moon in the dead of winter, cool and chilling, sending shivers down their spines.
“From today onwards, remember this: Lin Xi is my friend. Be careful when you run into her. Besides, I suspect her family’s influence is far greater than mine. That’s all I have to say. You can decide for yourselves.”
After saying that, Ye Jinran left the private room without lingering.
"Wow, what exactly does Lin Xi do? I've never heard of the Lin family in the whole of Shanghai. Could she be the young lady of one of those reclusive families?" Young Master Wang didn't miss the bodyguard's address when he came over.
"It's possible. Didn't Young Master Ye say that Lin Xi's backing is far beyond our imagination? After all, even Young Master Ye couldn't have made one of the four major families go bankrupt so easily, and he even had three S-level bodyguards with him."
"Indeed, why think so much? If we see Sister Xi in the future, we can help her out with small things. Who knows, we might even become friends."
A woman in the corner had a hint of jealousy in her eyes.
She finally managed to get on the good side with President Liu today. If it weren't for Lin Xi, she might have become a phoenix rising from the ashes. But she ruined everything.
