Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Chen Bin’s Compromise _1
At these words, another wave of gasps swept through the surrounding crowd.
The Chen Family Patriarch fell to his knees begging for mercy, the Young Master of the Chen Family was crippled; they truly couldn’t understand what great power Ye Ming hid that could bring such humiliation to this father and son.
"Mr. Ye, please don’t take offense," said Chen Bin decisively, "My unworthy son lacks discipline; it is my own negligence in supervision that has offended you!"
"It is only right that he should be taught a lesson!"
"Mr. Ye, you did nothing wrong, I should actually thank you for valiantly teaching my son a lesson!"
Chen Bin was now not just a father, but his demeanor was like that of a grandson, completely devoid of any dignity.
All he had in mind was survival.
Where there’s life, there’s hope; compared to everything else, his life was the most important.
If he perished now, what talk would there be of revenge? The entire Chen Family would be utterly finished.
So he had to do this.
Before Chen Bin could finish speaking, Biao Zi, who had lost both legs, struggled to crawl over and said, "President Chen, have you made a mistake? Weren’t we supposed to kill that beast, Ye Ming?"
"You spread the message, searching the whole city for Ye Ming’s whereabouts, why are you now..."
"Rest assured, he’s just an unknown junior. Please don’t treat him like this. I’ve already called for help, and they should be here any moment!"
"Just wait for my men to arrive, they’ll certainly make Ye Ming beg for life in vain, beg for death without getting it, and ensure his death is utterly miserable!"
The air seemed to freeze at that moment. Chen Bin had pleaded bitterly for a long time, and just when things seemed to be settled, Biao Zi unexpectedly jumped out and muddled everything up.
Ye Ming smiled faintly, his words dripping with sarcasm, "President Chen, this guy is really loyal to you. I suggest you keep him as your lackey."
"Both legs are broken and he’s still thinking of currying favor with you. He couldn’t be more suitable as a lapdog."
Chen Bin felt a surge of anger and nearly suffocated from it.
Panting with rage, he gestured to his men, "Drag this idiotic thing out and chop him up! Hack him into pieces! I don’t want to see him for even a second more!"
If he had any strength in his hands, he would have done the deed himself.
Ye Ming chuckled and said, "The might of President Chen returns, but how will you face your men after treating a loyal follower this way? Wouldn’t they grow cold-hearted? Who would dare remain loyal to you in the future?"
Chen Bin turned pale, his mentality close to shattering.
It was only then that Chen Bin finally noticed the father and daughter duo, Sun Miaomiao, not far away.
And seeing the look Sun Miaomiao gave Ye Ming, Chen Bin understood something.
Having been through countless experiences in the martial world, Chen Bin’s ability to read people and situations was not to be underestimated.
He immediately said to Biao Zi, "You, right now, do as I do and kneel down to apologize!"
"What?" Biao Zi couldn’t believe his ears.
Chen Bin didn’t have time to explain. Seeing that Biao Zi was unable to walk, he arranged for two of his men to help him kneel before Ye Ming.
Already with fractured leg bones, this action caused him excruciating pain, his screams were so piercing they made everyone’s skin crawl.
"Mr. Ye, I was wrong, it’s me who deserves to die!"
After suffering a horrific price, Biao Zi finally saw the light. He understood that Ye Ming had conquered the Chen Family.
The Chen Family had not been trying to track down Ye Ming to target him, but to kneel and beg for mercy.
Ye Ming finally nodded in satisfaction and said, "All the previous rents have been returned, and from now on, you’d better not collect any more. If I catch you doing it again, I will give you a consequence that you cannot bear!"
Biao Zi felt a chill down his spine. The consequences he was facing now were already more than he could bear, and he nodded hurriedly out of fear.
"Alright, get lost. Seeing you guys just irritates me." Ye Ming waved his hand, and immediately, two of Chen Bin’s men came over and dragged Biao Zi away.
After dealing with Biao Zi’s issue, Ye Ming finally said to Chen Bin, "President Chen, didn’t you tell me before that there are always higher skies and people beyond us? Have you found that person beyond us?"
Chen Bin hurriedly shook his head: "Mr. Ye, I was just saying that casually; please don’t take it seriously."
"I will never go against you in the future, I swear it on my life."
Ye Ming clicked his tongue and asked, "But, I’ve ruined your son, and he’s probably going to end up a vegetable. What’s your opinion on this?"
Chen Bin spoke righteously and sternly, "He got what he deserved, it’s the price he had to pay. It’s better if he becomes a vegetable, so he doesn’t go out and cause trouble for me anymore!"
"Mr. Ye, you did nothing wrong."
Ye Ming was filled with contempt. He saw that Chen Bin, in order to save his own life, could actually say such hypocritical words.
Even Ye Ming himself couldn’t stand to hear them.
It’s as if he has no shame, invincible under the heavens.
Ye Ming didn’t make it any harder for Chen Bin. He leisurely got up, came over to Chen Bin, and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Seeing that you’ve come to understand your place, I’ll let you off this time, but if there’s a next time, you know what the consequences will be."
"Also, if you want to act against me in the future, you don’t need to go through the trouble of asking for the Xu Family’s permission, their word doesn’t count!"
Hearing Ye Ming’s leniency, Chen Bin also let out a sigh of relief.
After Ye Ming’s hand left his shoulder, Chen Bin suddenly realized that the strange feeling on his body had completely disappeared.
Before, he felt as though a mountain was pressing on him, but after Ye Ming patted him, he felt light all over and completely back to normal.
This surprising phenomenon deeply shocked Chen Bin.
All the famous doctors he sought were useless, yet with just a pat from Ye Ming, such a miraculous effect was achieved; it was simply too astonishing.
At the same time, Chen Bin had already made up his mind; such a formidable person couldn’t be left alone!
The taste of being toyed with at will, Chen Bin only wanted to experience it this once in his lifetime. He would not rest until he had dealt with Ye Ming.
On the surface, he didn’t show any signs, thanking Ye Ming profusely, and truly heeding Ye Ming’s words, he left in a hurry.
Once outside, he immediately ordered his subordinates, "Muzzle these people around us; I don’t want this getting out!"
His men nodded and began to disperse the crowd.
Ye Ming didn’t bother with him any more. Of course, he didn’t trust that Chen Bin, after suffering such a humiliation, would just let things be in the future.
However, he had nothing to fear; at least it made him feel much better. freewebnσvel.cѳm
As for Biao Zi, Chen Bin had already taken him away. Whether he was dead or alive, Ye Ming didn’t care anymore.
When the matter settled down, Sun Miaomiao showed a shocked expression on her face and whispered, "Ye Ming, who exactly are you?"
"Why can you be so powerful?"
Ye Ming’s actions had completely shattered Sun Miaomiao’s worldview, leaving her somewhat incoherent.
In her heart, she felt a deep sense of defeat, thinking that the gap between her and Ye Ming was too great, as if one was in heaven and the other on earth.
Ye Ming pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "I’m just an ordinary person."
