Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 449: Chapter 448 I Was Wrong

Taking a deep breath, Wang Hui spoke in a low voice, ”Master Su, I was wrong about what happened this time. But you... a grown man, bullying a girl, that’s not right either!”

Wang Hui still wanted to save some face in front of his girlfriend, so he was still defending Lin Zi at this moment.

”I bullied a girl?” Su Yang looked at Lin Zi with a faint smile, ”Is that what your girlfriend told you?”

Lin Zi, already trembling with fear, didn’t wait for Wang Hui to speak. She knelt down with a thud, her voice trembling as she said, ”Big brother, please... please spare me, I... I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong...”

Having mingled in such circles for a long time, Lin Zi of course knew what a big shot meant. Nan Wudi, Qin Haishan—they were beings she couldn’t even aspire to, and yet they had to treat Su Yang with such respect. So what was she in front of Su Yang?

In fact, Lin Zi now regretted everything to the utmost.

Su Yang’s status was obviously much higher than Wang Hui’s—he was someone who could sit on an equal footing with the heads of the Ten Great Families.

So young, yet holding such an incredible position, it was simply unimaginable.

Lin Zi’s biggest dream in life was to marry into a wealthy family, and Wang Hui was the richest she had found. But compared to Su Yang, Wang Hui was nothing.

Thinking about what happened today, it was a tremendous stroke of luck for her to have sat next to Su Yang. If she could take good care of Su Yang, make him happy, perhaps she could be associated with this big shot.

If Su Yang took a fancy to her, what would Wang Hui count for? Even the heads of the Ten Great Families would probably have to treat her with courtesy. This was an opportunity beyond her wildest dreams.

Even if Su Yang didn’t fancy her, as long as she served him well today, having a kind word from Su Yang, being a familiar face to him, she could later claim to know Su Yang. Then, most likely, many people would treat her with the utmost respect, which was much better than being Wang Hui’s girlfriend!

And now, she had directly kicked away this opportunity.

What’s crucial was that she hadn’t just tossed aside the opportunity, but she had also insulted Su Yang behind his back. Furthermore, she had exaggerated the story to Wang Hui, leading a group of people to cause trouble. All of these actions piled up were simply unforgivable!

In this situation, what choice did she have other than to kneel?

”You were wrong? How were you wrong?” Su Yang asked with a light smile, ”Tell everyone and let us hear it.”

Though Lin Zi was very reluctant, she had no choice but to admit to everything she had done.

This time, she dared not conceal a single detail, revealing everything that had happened. Including the words she had used to insult Su Yang, she recounted them without omission.

After all, many people present were witnesses. If she lied at this moment, it would only make things more troublesome for herself.

After hearing Lin Zi’s words, Wang Hui was the first to explode in anger, shouting, ”Fuck you, you damn bitch, that’s not what you told me just now. Didn’t you say they were going to hit you? Didn’t you say they were going to bully you? How come it’s like this now?”

””You slut, you’re fucking asking for it!” Xiao Ding, too, was enraged, grabbing a bottle from the table and charging over, ”You get to serve Master Su and don’t even know what kind of good fortune your ancestors accumulated for you, and yet you dare treat Master Su like this, I’ll fucking kill you!”

Lin Zi’s face turned pale with fright, and it was then that Su Yang spoke up, ”Xiao Ding, stop it, you’re disrupting my meal!”

Xiao Ding immediately ceased, and respectfully said, ”Master Su, this was my fault for not managing things properly. I will definitely give you a satisfactory response!”

”I’ll leave the matter in your hands to deal with,” Su Yang stated, looking at Lin Zi with a faint smile, ”This time you were quite honest, and you didn’t lie again.”

Lin Zi hung her head low, filled with extreme regret. Indeed, as Xiao Ding had said, being able to serve Master Su was a blessing she’d accumulated over several lifetimes. Now, she had ruined it herself.

In fact, Su Yang had been quite magnanimous.

The first time she said she wanted to leave, Su Yang knew she was lying but still agreed. Such generosity is rare among ordinary people. And for someone of his stature, he had given her more than enough face!

Yet, after she left the room, she directly mocked and cursed Su Yang. Thinking about it now, she indeed did wrong.

Even without that mockery and cursing, things would not have escalated to this point!

”Master Su, I’m sorry, it was... it was my fault...” Lin Zi said with a trembling voice, ”You were so generous to me, and I... I badmouthed you behind your back, and even brought people over to cause trouble, I... I deserve to die. You can punish me however you want, I... I...”

At this point, tears came pouring out of Lin Zi’s eyes, putting on a pitiful act to gain the sympathy of men with her acting.

Unfortunately, the man she was facing was Su Yang. With a slight frown, Su Yang said coldly, ”Cry again, and you’ll lose your life!”

Lin Zi immediately stopped, also completely baffled. Tears were a woman’s best weapon, especially for beautiful women; any man would have trouble resisting their urge to comfort her when she cried. So why didn’t it work at all with Su Yang?

Su Yang asked, ”Wang Shao, do you still want to stand up for your girlfriend?”

Wang Hui by now understood the situation and knew he had been used by Lin as a pawn. Already seething with anger and seeing Su Yang’s incredible abilities, he wouldn’t dare to challenge Su Yang anymore!

”Master Su, I was deceived by this slut. For the offense I caused just now, I apologize to you here, Master Su. Please forgive me!” Wang Hui said quickly.

”No need for forgiveness,” Su Yang replied with a faint smile. ”I don’t have many strengths, but I do have a lot of faults. One of the most obvious is that I bear grudges. Wang Shao, you made a scene at my place, and surely you can’t just get away with a mere apology. Young Master Qin, get Old Master Qin to arrange an investigation into Wang Shao’s father, and find out how a public servant like him can support such a luxurious lifestyle for his son.”

”Of course!” Young Master Qin immediately responded with a smile. ”Master Su, you can rest assured, when it comes to dealing with corrupt officials, we of the Qin Family are second to none. Wang Shao, you’d better pray that your father hasn’t done anything outrageous. Otherwise, for even a single penny of misused funds, we could make sure he rots in prison!”

Wang Hui sat down hard on the ground, utterly flabbergasted. He knew all too well that, over the years, his father hadn’t been shy about reaching out for money. If the Qin Family really pursued this matter, his father was finished.

Thinking back to how he had just been ranting about making Su Yang rot in prison, and now it was his own father facing that threat, the irony of the situation couldn’t have been greater!
