Chapter 4: The Terrified Li Family
Taicang City.
Villa No. 1 in Mid-Levels.
At eight o'clock in the morning, a dozen core members of the Li family stood at the gate of the villa.
The head of the Li family smiled humbly and said to the guard:
"Please inform me that we are here to visit Mr. Lei. I made an appointment with Mr. Lei Quan yesterday."
The Lei family of Taicang, an invisible wealthy family, is the most important. It can be said that the first family in Taicang has always been the Lei family.
Only few people know this news. The Lei family keeps a low profile, but the resources they control are many times more than the Li family.
The legendary figure of the Lei family, Lei Chengwu, who is over ninety years old, is a big shot who has experienced the war years. A single word from him can put the Li family in danger.
However, the old man of the Lei family has been away from worldly affairs for more than ten years and is retiring in a villa on the mountainside.
This day is Lei Chengwu's birthday. There is a party within the Lei family, and the Li family always comes to visit in the morning.
The head of the Li family is very satisfied to have the qualification to visit Mr. Lei.
Waited about five minutes.
A man with a Chinese character face, who looks to be about seventy years old, is Lei Quan, the current head of the Lei family.
"Brother Quan."
The head of the Li family said with a smile.
Lei Quan nodded slightly, glanced at the gift boxes in the hands of the Li family and others, and said calmly:
"In the past two years, every time I come to visit, I have to bring a gift. Have you forgotten the rules?"
"Don't dare, I know Mr. Lei doesn't like receiving gifts, but I want to show more respect to Mr. Lei while he is in good health." The head of the Li family quickly apologized.
The gifts they brought were worth more than 10 million, and they were all rare items.
"Put it aside for now."
Lei Quan snorted.
The door opened, and the Li family and others placed the gifts in the courtyard.
They walked into the hall of the villa.
There were six or seven people in the room, and the one sitting on the sofa was Mr. Lei. He had white hair and was a bit old, but he looked like he was about eighty years old, not over ninety.
"Li Wen pays homage to Mr. Lei and wishes Mr. Lei good health and longevity." The head of the Li family cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"Everyone, take a seat."
Lei Chengwu nodded lightly. He was holding the tea cup and taking a sip.
Li Wen glanced at the tea cup a few times.
He knew that this teacup was an antique item called the Jitai Teacup, which was auctioned for 50 million that year!
Here in the Lei family, they are just the old man’s daily necessities.
When the Li family sat down, Lei Quan also smiled a little, and the two elders began to chat.
Drinking tea and chatting.
After a while, Li Xi, the sister of the head of the Li family, looked at Lei Wei, the young eldest son of the Lei family, and said with a smile:
"Lei Wei is a very talented person now. He is about twenty years old. Do you have a girlfriend? I can introduce you to Sister Li if you like her."
Lei Wei sat on the small sofa next to him. He smiled and shook his head: "I just planned to study abroad and study for a few years before coming back. I have no idea of falling in love for the time being."
"It's really outstanding." Li Xi sighed with a smile: "Compared to yours, our Li Kun is far behind. He has nothing to do all day long."
Lei Wei laughed: "Li Kun, we have WeChat friends. Yesterday he asked me about Su Chen in the Heavenly King Palace."
The words just fell.
"puff......"
Suddenly, Mr. Lei Chengwu sprayed the tea in his mouth all over the floor.
The field was silent for a moment!
Lei Quan was startled and hurriedly walked over and patted his back gently: "Father, what's wrong with you?"
Under the gaze of everyone, Lei Chengwu was seen shaking all over, his breathing was rapid, his eyes were red, and he was staring straight at Lei Wei: "What did you say? What did you just say?"
"Grandpa, I, I, I didn't say anything?" Lei Wei's face changed slightly: "I was talking about the Li family."
"Tianwang Palace! You said Tianwang Palace!!!"
Lei Chengwu gritted his teeth angrily.
In an instant, the expressions of many people in the audience changed.
What could make the old man so excited?
"It's Li Kun. Something happened in his restaurant yesterday. He asked me about Su Chen of the Heavenly King Palace..." Lei Wei explained the matter.
The moment he finished speaking!
Snap!
The teacup worth fifty million was thrown to the ground by Lei Chengwu.
I saw the old man furious:
"Asshole!"
"What a bastard!"
Lei Chengwu picked up the crutch and was about to hit Lei Wei on the head.
"Father, please don't get excited, I'll hit him, I'll hit him..." Lei Quan's face turned pale, he walked over quickly and kicked Lei Wei to the ground.
"Grandpa..." Lei Wei was stunned.
Everyone in the Li family was also confused. They had no idea why Mr. Lei was so angry.
Bang!
Lei Chengwu hit the coffee table hard with his cane and said angrily:
"Where are the family rules? Ah? What are the family rules! Why didn't you tell me the news about the Heavenly King's Palace as soon as possible? Lei Quan, what do you do for food?"
The first family rule of the Lei family: People in the Tianwang Palace are guests of the Lei family. Benefactors are supreme. Anyone who sees them must respect them as their elders. Anyone who violates this order will be kicked out of the house!
Lei Quan was a little panicked. He hurriedly explained: "Father, you said last time that the younger generation of the family should not tell them the specific family rules until they are twenty. Xiaowei's twentieth birthday is one month away."
"You bastard, you are such a bastard! You should tell me when you are an adult!"
Lei Chengwu breathed deeply, and said in a sullen tone: "Lei Wei, go to the ancestral hall and kneel until dark!"
"Go quickly!" Lei Quan breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Lei Wei fiercely.
Lei Wei left with a tumble.
At this time, the Li family was in a bit of a dilemma.
They saw that Su Chen from the Heavenly King Palace might be a friend of the Lei family.
So... if Li Kun offended that person, would there be any consequences?
The head of the Li family laughed: "Old man, calm down, it's just a little thing of the younger generation."
"The younger generation's matter?"
Lei Chengwu's eyes were extremely sharp. He stared at the Li family and said word by word:
"You, the Li family, dare to provoke my benefactor?"
Ah ah ah!
Everyone in the Li family panicked instantly!
They didn't know what the Heavenly King Palace represented.
But they were afraid of Lei Chengwu!
With one word from Lei Chengwu, the Li family would suffer a devastating disaster!
Plop!
The head of the Li family quickly knelt on the ground, choking with sobs: "Mr. Lei, calm down. It's all the Li family's fault. Please be magnanimous..."
Lei Chengwu said coldly: "Please beg me? What a joke!"
"Mr. Lei, calm down." The head of the Li family cried: "I don't even know the Tianwang Palace. The Li family didn't offend him. It was Li Kun's own business. Mr. Lei, I will give you an explanation. The Li family will also get Su Chen's forgiveness. Mr. Lei, please forgive us."
Lei Chengwu sat on the sofa, his face gloomy, and sneered:
"You dare to mess with the people of the Tianwang Palace. You are so bold. Not to mention that the Tianwang Palace has done me a favor. Mr. Li, do you know that during the war, the five major warlords in the country had to go to the Tianwang Palace to ask for advice every time they had a major action!"
Hiss!
As soon as this was said, everyone in the Li family took a breath of cold air!
The Tianwang Palace seems to have been around for a long time. Even the warlords had to say hello in advance before taking any action?
What a terrifying status is this?
"I don't know who Su Chen is, but my benefactor was from the Heavenly King Palace, so as long as he is from the Heavenly King Palace, he is a guest of honor in my Lei family!" Lei Lao's eyes showed sharpness.
"Lei Lao, Lei Lao, is this a misunderstanding?" The head of the Li family said in a panic: "Could it be that someone is just misusing the name of the Heavenly King Palace?"
"Hahaha, misusing? I have lived for more than 90 years, and I have never seen anyone dare to use the name of the Heavenly King Palace!"
Lei Lao slammed the table with a bang:
"Who among those who know the Heavenly King Palace is not a big shot who is powerful in one side? I have only heard a little bit, do you think I am joking? Ignorant!"
Swish!
The faces of the people in the Li family became even paler!
Lei Lao took a deep breath and laughed:
"Last night, all the members of the Shadow Hall set off to travel to Dragon Country. They have disappeared for thirty years. Even their mysterious hall master, Demon King Feng Wuya, set off in person!"
"You have offended the people of the Heavenly King Hall. All the members of the Shadow Hall came in a high-profile manner. Do you dare to assert that they have nothing to do with it?"
"You go back now and buy yourself a good coffin. It's not too late. Get out! Get out of here!"
Lei Chengwu's words.
The faces of the head of the Li family and others changed drastically.
"What, what!"
"Demon King Feng Wuya, he, he, they came because of the Heavenly King Hall?"
Although this was Lei Chengwu's guess, it really scared the Li family silly.
The head of the Li family and others were horrified!
I only felt a cold air flow from my spine straight into my mind.
They looked ashen! Many people collapsed on the ground, almost crying in fear:
"How is this possible?"
"It's over! My Li family is over! Woo woo woo..."
......
In a subway station in the Demon City.
Su Chen held his daughter Luo Luo and walked into the subway.
"Dad, dad, there are so many people..."
Luo Luo was a little scared and hugged Su Chen's neck, as if whispering.
"It's lively with so many people, Luo Luo, don't be afraid, dad is here."
Su Chen smiled slightly and put his face close to Luo Luo.
Taking the subway was something Su Chen did on purpose.
At around six in the morning, after Bai Qianqian and the assistant left, Su Chen planned to take his daughter for a walk in crowded places.
The daughter's personality problems also need some time to adjust.
"Dad, where are we going? Luo Luo wants to paint at home..." Luo Luo whispered.
"We'll paint in the evening, and we'll play outside during the day."
Su Chen was a little helpless, he smiled and said: "We'll go to Panlong Mountain later, that's Dad's territory, you're Dad's eldest princess, Dad plans to build a princess mansion for you in Panlong Mountain."
"Huh?"
Lolo was stunned, she shook her head, didn't understand, and said shyly:
"Dad is the best."
Su Chen saw this and laughed happily.
After having a daughter, I feel that life suddenly has a purpose!
