Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

Chapter 404 No Good Thing Will Die

The night sky with the lights just coming on is like an elegant ink painting, lightly dotted with snowflakes.

It adds a bit of mystery and poetry to the night scene of Jicheng.

The snowflakes fell to the ground but melted instantly, leaving only puddles of wet traces, making the city's already busy traffic even more congested.

Inside a single ward in the inpatient building of Jinan First Hospital, a quiet and warm atmosphere permeates the entire space.

"Wife, please let me leave the hospital. I just had a minor scratch. Why waste that money?"

On the hospital bed, with some bruises on his face and wearing a hospital gown, Mr. Li leaned on the bed and complained to Mother Li who was walking over with an incubator, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"This is what my daughter wants. If you have any objections, you can complain to your precious daughter when you see her later."

Mother Li put the incubator on the table and walked to the bedside. With deep concern in her eyes, she explained, "Don't complain. Even if you are young, if you encounter such a thing, you have to stay in the hospital for two or three days to observe whether there are any sequelae.

You are already in your fifties, so you need to be more careful. Besides, our family doesn't need this little money right now, so why rush out?"

"All right……"

As long as the two women in the family agree, Father Li knows that he has no choice but to obey. He nodded very wisely, muttering helplessly: "The Spring Festival is only a few days away, and I have to face such a thing. It's really..."

Before he finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open and several uninvited guests walked in.

The leader wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, was gentle and elegant, with a faint smile on his lips.

However, in sharp contrast to him, the four people behind him were all burly men with ferocious faces, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not good people.

"Uncle Li, Aunt Li, I am Gong Cheng, the chief legal advisor of Longhan Group. I am here to apologize to you on behalf of the chairman and his family."

Gong Cheng smiled warmly, walked to the bedside of Li's father, bowed slightly, and kept a low profile. He ignored the still confused Li couple and continued, "Of course, a verbal apology does not represent sincerity."

He stretched out his right hand slightly, and waved it gently. A big man behind him carrying a black suitcase took two steps forward and placed the suitcase beside the bed.

Gong Cheng slowly bent down and opened the suitcase. Mr. and Mrs. Li's attention was attracted and they looked down.

In an instant, his pupils dilated slightly and his breathing became a little rapid.

There were bundles of red banknotes neatly arranged in the suitcase. Each bundle was brand new Daxia currency that had just been taken out of the bank. The number was so large that Dad and Mom Li were stunned for a moment.

There was surprise, confusion, and incomprehension in their eyes.

Gong Cheng smiled slightly, his confident and calm smile concealing a sense of accomplishment of controlling other people's lives. He slowly said, "The chairman's family is deeply sorry for this incident. This million is a small token of our gratitude. We hope it can reduce your hospital expenses and also serve as compensation for Uncle Li's shock and injury."

One million, if it were three years ago, it would have been a huge fortune and an astronomical figure for Mr. and Mrs. Li.

But ever since his precious daughter became the lead actress of "Half-Demon Allure", their family has undergone tremendous changes, and this amount is not even half of the pocket money his daughter gives him.

But those were just numbers in my bank card, nothing could compare to the shocking reality of seeing it with my own eyes.

"It's too much. I can't afford it."

Mr. Li is not stupid.

Although Gong Cheng's voice was calm and his attitude was sincere, the presence of the four burly men behind him made this apology and compensation seem a little unusual.

Their existence seemed to be a silent reminder to the old couple that this compensation was more of a warning.

"Not much, not much."

Gong Cheng shook his head slightly, with an unusually humble demeanor, and continued, "This amount of money is only half. As long as you give up the lawsuit against my young master, I will give you another million in compensation."

"hehe".

Father Li chuckled twice, and the thrilling scene in the afternoon emerged in his mind.

I just came out of the mall and walked towards the parking lot not far away.

My cell phone rang and I was about to answer it when I heard a scream from behind me.

Looking up, I saw a black sports car diving into the sidewalk and rushing towards me.

If it weren't for his military experience and he hadn't dodged and rolled to the side in time, he would probably be playing Landlord with his parents downstairs at this moment.

When he stood up, he saw that the sports car was still spinning in the same place and it stopped after a few seconds.

Soon, the police car arrived, and he noticed that when the police opened the door, the young man in the driver's seat had a dull look in his eyes, and was shaking his head and waving his hands... This was quite consistent with some of the symptoms of drug addicts he had seen on TV.

Taking drugs in Daxia is a serious crime.

If it hadn't been for the poison fight, Mr. Li might have just let the matter go.

After all, in this era, everyone believes that less trouble is worse than more trouble. Besides, apart from being frightened, I didn't suffer any harm.

However, Mr. Li couldn't tolerate the fact that the boy dared to drive around after taking drugs.

This is simply a killing machine walking on the road at any time.

He was lucky enough to escape this time, but what about next time?

Will the next victim be as lucky as him?

And judging from the way Gong Cheng handled things, this might not be the first time he has encountered this.

"I will not take the money, and I will not withdraw the lawsuit. I want to rest now. Please leave."

Father Li narrowed his eyes and replied in a tone that left no room for doubt.

"Haha, I understand. Uncle Li has a good daughter. This little money is not even enough to pay for half of Li Yitong's TV series."

Mr. Li's resounding refusal made Gong Cheng dazed for a moment. This old guy wouldn't ask for too much, would he?

I increased the previous compensation tenfold because I thought his family's situation was different from that of others.

They have a good daughter who can make money, a lot of money.

But it’s not those poor people who have to live frugally for three generations just to buy a house, haha.

Gong Cheng's face darkened. He took a deep breath, letting that faint fake smile reappear on his face, and spoke in a gentle tone:

"Uncle Li, we Dongshan people are all straightforward and honest men. Just tell us what conditions you have and how much money would make you feel comfortable. I will call the chairman immediately and try my best to meet your conditions."

"No need. My words are clear enough, please leave."

Father Li replied indifferently and turned his head to the side.

Out of sight out of mind!

These people are not good people.
