Chapter 1977 - 1950: Stop Right There
It took a good while before Wei Xu managed to suppress the surging murderous intent in his heart, his eyes bloodshot, and through gritted teeth he said: "Satisfied, I am very satisfied with this explanation. Since Young Master Qiu has had his say, can I leave now?"
"Get out, disappear from my sight."
Qiu Tianrui glanced at Wei Xu and said coldly: "Wei Xu, this is the first and also the last time. If next time your woman bites indiscriminately, things won’t be as easily resolved as they were today."
"Thank you, Young Master Qiu, for your guidance. I will remember this matter," Wei Xu said through clenched teeth, his sinister gaze shifting among Qiu Tianrui, Qiu Yingrong, and even Lu Tianxing and Lingling, as if he were trying to etch their images firmly in his mind.
Then Wei Xu didn’t even look at the woman beside him who was already frightened silly; he turned directly and walked towards the outside.
"Stop."
It was at this moment that Lu Tianxing, who had not spoken, suddenly did, his indifferent tone reverberating as if from the depths of everyone’s hearts, sending an uncontrollable chill through them.
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Wei Xu’s face changed again, and panic began to set in within him. He had been so quick to yield not just because he couldn’t beat Qiu Tianrui, but because Lu Tianxing was also there watching like a hawk. Otherwise, how could he have swallowed his anger so easily?
But Wei Xu hadn’t expected Lu Tianxing to eventually call him to a halt.
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Wei Xu slowly turned his head, looking at Lu Tianxing and said: "Mr. Lu, is there anything else you’d like to instruct?"
Despite the murderous intent and venom in his heart, Wei Xu dared not reveal it in the slightest, for he knew too well Lu Tianxing’s character—definitely someone who doesn’t hesitate to kill. If he were to confront Lu Tianxing now, Lu Tianxing wouldn’t mind killing him. And if he died, it would be for nothing, as the Wei Family wouldn’t risk tearing faces with Lu Tianxing for him, and might even beg Lu Tianxing to spare them.
This is something Wei Xu firmly believed.
"Nothing to instruct."
Upon hearing Wei Xu’s words, Lu Tianxing said calmly: "I just want you to give me an explanation."
Give me an explanation?
Upon hearing this again, Wei Xu’s face turned ashen, his expression flickering uncertainly: "Mr. Lu, wasn’t the explanation I gave just now enough?"
"Do you feel it’s enough?"
Lu Tianxing questioned back: "You just gave Young Master Qiu an explanation. You haven’t given me one yet!"
Looking at Wei Xu’s gloomy, ashen face, Lu Tianxing’s expression didn’t change in the slightest, his tone calm as he said: "What’s the matter? Your woman speaks disrespectfully to my daughter. As her man, don’t you plan to give me, her father, a reasonable explanation?"
"You... "
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s unreasonable words, Wei Xu’s anger flared up instantly, his fists clenched, his tone carrying a hint of menace as he said: "What exactly do you want, Mr. Lu?"
"Nothing much."
Lu Tianxing sneered and said: "It was your woman who was arrogant and domineering. You arrived and acted equally arrogantly. If I hadn’t been here today, would my daughter have been scolded for nothing? Don’t you need to pay a price for this?"
Lu Tianxing’s character is one of respecting those who respect him and retaliating fiercely against those who offend him.
This is Lu Tianxing’s nature; as long as someone touches the reverse scale in his heart, he would cripple them, no matter who they are.
Furthermore, Wei Xu has provoked him several times before, even daring to covet Bai Zhiqing and the others. If he doesn’t teach Wei Xu a lesson, others might really think Lu Tianxing is easy to bully.
Upon hearing this, Wei Xu instinctively wanted to retort but found himself unable to because what Lu Tianxing said was true. If he hadn’t given Qiu Tianrui such a dilemma just now, perhaps things wouldn’t have escalated to this point.
"What, you don’t want to give me an explanation? Then I’ll personally ask you for one."
As he spoke, Lu Tianxing handed Lingling to Rose and then walked directly towards Wei Xu himself.
Watching Lu Tianxing approach, Wei Xu felt an unprecedented fear sprout from within his chest because in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, he saw a chilling coldness—not a natural cold but the icy look of someone staring at a corpse, as if in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, he were already dead.
"You... what do you intend to do? I... I’m telling you, I’m a member of the Wei Family. You... you better not do anything reckless."
Wei Xu took a step back, his voice trembling uncontrollably, wanting to bow his head, but a sliver of dignity within prevented him from doing so.
Upon hearing Wei Xu’s words, Lu Tianxing suddenly showed a cold smile.
Would the Judge fear the consequences?
If he was afraid of the consequences of taking action, he wouldn’t have provoked the Yang Family in Beijing then, nor would he have wiped out the Beijing Wang Family.
"Not do anything reckless?"
Lu Tianxing walked up to Wei Xu, looked at him, and said: "Then are you willing to give me a reasonable explanation?"
"You... what are you planning to do?"
Wei Xu’s voice was no longer controllable in its trembling, mingled deeply with fear.
"I want you to give me an explanation, but now it seems you don’t seem willing to give me a reasonable one. But that’s okay; I think soon you’ll voluntarily give me a reasonable explanation."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Tianxing’s lips curled into a cold smile as he suddenly stepped forward, swinging his right arm in a full arc, and viciously slapped Wei Xu’s face.
"You... "
In an instant, Wei Xu’s eyes nearly popped out, instinctively trying to dodge, but how could he succeed?
"Slap!"
A loud slap rang out, and Wei Xu flew away like a baseball hit by a bat.
"Bang!"
After a brief flight, Wei Xu’s body crashed onto the marble floor, curled up like a dead dog, trembling endlessly, seeming ready to faint at any moment. Yet, the intense pain kept Wei Xu from truly losing consciousness.
Lu Tianxing, as if he had done something trivial, smilingly walked towards Wei Xu again amidst everyone’s fearful gaze, looking down at him from above: "Young Master Wei, are you willing to give me an explanation now? If not, we can continue."
