Chapter 43: Chapter 35: Made Some HeadlinesBang, two sturdy bodies collided forcefully, producing an exaggerated metallic crash. On the surface, nothing seemed amiss, but had either of them struck a wall or a tree, it would have resulted in a grand scene of a toppled wall or a fallen tree. Lin Mu’s body shook violently for a moment, involuntarily releasing the hands of Han Gan and Han Si Hai. Simultaneously, he swayed slightly. The intense impact indeed made him feel discomfort in his internal organs. Meanwhile, looking at Han Family’s strongest expert, Han Gan, he staggered backward several meters like an uncontrollable broken car, nearly falling over. Everyone present was taken aback. It seemed like a gentle collision, yet it dazed the Pearl River Delta’s greatest expert from the Han Family! But the surprise wasn’t over. That Han Family’s top expert suddenly felt chest discomfort, his insides churning like a tempest. After trying hard to suppress it, he couldn’t hold back and spat out a mouthful of old blood. "Are you okay!" Han Si Hai patted his beloved subordinate’s shoulder and turned to Lin Mu with a cold smile, "Congratulations, you’ve made a name for yourself. From tomorrow, the martial arts world of the Pearl River Delta will start to spread your story, defeating two Han Family experts outnumbered!" "I admit, you let me win!" Lin Mu replied with a relaxed smile, Han Gan stared at his opponent unwillingly, a look of defiance on his face. He still refused to concede. However, Han Si Hai was understanding and advised, "A loss is a loss. If we lose our skills, let’s not lose our character. The Han Family can afford this loss! Han Gan, let’s go!" Saying this, Han Si Hai turned and left without bidding farewell to anyone, demonstrating the demeanor of South Korea and North Chen. "Okay! Master Si," Han Gan spat blood on the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and spitefully said to Lin Mu, "Remember, I’m a vengeful person. Someday Han will come to settle the score!" "Uh-huh, I’ll be waiting for you!" Lin Mu scoffed disdainfully. A defeated rival, how could he speak of courage? "Let’s go! Stop dawdling at the back; isn’t it embarrassing enough already?" Seeing Han Gan hesitating at the back, Han Si Hai impatiently urged. An otherwise fine martial arts show for the guests ended poorly as it sent the Han Family away with bloodshed! Watching the Han Family leave in a huff, Sophie also felt there was no need to stay. Using an excuse of a company phone call needing urgent attention, she made her farewell to the host, Huo Baolian, and departed without even acknowledging Chen Shiwei, leaving with Lin Mu back to Su’s Headquarters. With even the main event, President Su, gone, the remaining guests lost enthusiasm and dispersed like clouds. In no time, the spacious reception room was left with only the host, Huo Baolian, and the handsome man, Chen Shiwei. "Young Master Chen, aren’t you going to follow President Su?" Chen Shiwei sighed deeply, "What’s mine won’t escape eventually; what’s not mine can’t be forced!" "Oh, that’s not the ambitious Young Master Chen I imagined?" Huo Baolian teased, "People do change!" Chen Shiwei replied helplessly, "Is it because you think you can’t compare to Lin Mu?" Huo Baolian laughed, known for her sharp tongue, always speaking piercingly. "Laugh?" Chen Shiwei’s eyes gleamed, "Who will have the last laugh is yet to be determined!" "Oh? But I see that Master Han Si, and that high-flying Lin Mu, both seem to care more about Sophie than you do. Do you have more chances than them?" "Precisely because they care too much, that’s why I say the outcome is unpredictable!" "Oh?" Huo Baolian suddenly understood, "Young Master Chen is indeed clever. It turns out you’re just watching the tigers fight from a hill, waiting for them to exhaust each other, then you’ll come in to clear the mess and reap the benefits!" "Oh, Bao Bao, you’re getting smarter by the day! Even I hadn’t thought this far yet!" Chen Shiwei exaggeratedly praised, Not expecting Huo Baolian to suddenly get angry, "I’ve told you before, the title ’Bao Bao’ is only for my family to call me. If you call me that again, don’t blame me for turning my face and being ruthless!" Damn, this woman’s face turns faster than a book page. One moment it’s a sunny June day, the next suddenly clouded over, looking like she wants to eat someone... Lin Mu was driving, seemingly in a good mood. Sophie sat beside him in the passenger seat, her gaze calmly fixed on the front, suddenly asking, "You performed well today! Not only did you make a name for yourself, but you also caused the Han and Chen Families great disgrace!" "Thank you for the compliment!" Lin Mu answered nonchalantly, seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "However, I always feel that your ultimate goal is not to make the Han and Chen Families submit, but that you’re deliberately trying to prove something?" "Prove what?" Lin Mu asked with a playful smile, "You know very well what!" Sophie replied with annoyance, "Yes, you’re right. I just want to make those two bastards understand that I, Lin Mu, am the indisputable, excellent, future, um... fiancé of Su’s Great Enterprise!" Under Sophie’s sharp gaze, Lin Mu hastened to change his words from "husband" to "fiancé," although if looks could kill, he might have been killed by Sophie a few times already! "Offending the Chen Family might not matter, as they mainly focus on business. However, offending the Han Family is unwise. The Han Family has always had a martial tradition; they never let grievances go unanswered. You hurt them today, and they will surely seek revenge in the future!" "Haha, even combined, they only have a combat power of five hundred, split evenly, they’re just two idiots of two hundred and fifty each. What’s there to fear?" Lin Mu always belittled such defeated opponents. "I don’t know where you’ve been before or what you did, but don’t forget, this is Huaxia, a time where everything depends on connections, wealth, and family background. The Han Family’s influence in Wancheng isn’t as simple as you think. Although the Su Family has a strong foundation, they never hold the upper hand compared to the Han Family. That says a lot. Han Si Hai, as the Han Family’s Young Master, is no ordinary person. He may not have your skills, but the resources behind him are unimaginably powerful!" "Oh, I see!" Lin Mu finally realized that Huaxia society is entirely different from his battles on the African Grassland. In North Africa, if you have exceptional skills, whoever has the strongest fist or best marksmanship calls the shots! However, in the complex social networks of Huaxia, problems aren’t solved with fists and force! In fact, even owning a business empire like the Su Family, with its immense strength and wealth, without a strong political backing, you’d eventually be devoured by competitors, leaving nothing but bones...
