Chapter 339: Are you going to kneel or not?
Although the Shen family is rich, what Baiyun lacks the least is rich people.
Hundreds of years ago, this place was the Xia Kingdom's premier trading port city.
Even in the late 1990s, there were many local tycoons with a net worth of hundreds of millions or even billions.
Although Shen Yiren is worth a lot of money, it is nothing in this.
It was impossible for him to get the biggest pieces of fat meat in South Bay, so he could only find a way to pick up the leftovers that the big guys didn't want.
The so-called leftovers are actually a good business that makes people salivate.
As long as you can take over a few sheds around the land, it is a sure win whether you sell them after a few years or simply raze them to build shops or residential buildings.
Because he got the news a little late, and Shen Yiren happened to be out of town discussing business, when he rushed back, the land in Nanwan had been almost divided up, leaving him with nothing.
Fortunately, he received a tip from Long Wu a few days ago and learned that Jingyi Real Estate planned to sell some land to raise funds, and the person who could make the final decision was none other than Lu Yiming.
That's why he invited people over tonight, intending to have a good communication.
Unexpectedly, this matter was ruined by Shen Junjie.
Shen Yiren's anger rose, and he stared at Shen Junjie fiercely. The more he looked at him, the angrier he became. He immediately pulled out his belt from his waist, stood up and walked towards him: "I really would rather give birth to a piece of barbecued pork than you. You just make trouble for me all day long. It's okay if you just make trouble on weekdays, but you messed up such an important transaction tonight. I'll beat you to death."
Seeing Shen Yiren holding the belt with murderous intent, Shen Junjie stood up very skillfully and hid behind Mao Yuchun.
Mao Yuchun glared at Shen Yiren fiercely and stood in front of him without giving in: "Mr. Shen, what are you going to do?"
Shen Yiren raised the belt in his hand angrily: "What are you doing? I'm going to beat this little bastard to death, so that he won't be able to do anything good but will cause more trouble than good."
With Mao Yuchun protecting him, Shen Junjie suddenly became bolder and said to Shen Yiren, "Dad, don't always call me a little bastard, because from a biological point of view, this is not good for you."
"You little bastard, you actually dare to laugh at me, I'm going to beat you to death today!"
Shen Yiren was furious and bypassed Mao Yuchun to catch Shen Junjie.
Shen Junjie twisted his body flexibly and opened it directly.
The father and son, with Mao Yuchun at the center, and the King of Qin circling the pillar.
After running two laps, Shen Yiren got annoyed and shouted angrily: "Stop right there!"
Mao Yuchun was also annoyed, and yelled at Shen Yiren at the top of his lungs: "Shen Yiren, are you done yet?"
Seeing his wife Mao Yuchun protecting their son again as usual, Shen Yiren suddenly felt powerless. He sighed, threw the belt on the ground, and sat on the sofa to sulk.
If this deal could go through, the Shen family would be able to make a lot of money. But now, they have missed the opportunity and are slow to move forward. It will be difficult for the Shen family to maintain its position in the circle.
After all, if you stop, others will not wait for you. In this magnificent era, everyone is striving to be the first, and if you don’t move forward, you will fall behind.
Shen Yiren felt very upset when he thought that one day the people he once looked down upon would step on him.
After calming down for a while, Shen Yiren said to Shen Junjie earnestly, "Ajie, you are already 18 years old, and you should be more sensible. Who am I working so hard for every day? Isn't it for you? When I get old, Renai Group will only be handed over to you to manage. Don't let me down again."
Mao Yuchun did not indulge his son at this time, but said to him: "Ajie, did you hear that? Your father often drinks for social events, and now his stomach and liver are not in good condition. You should be sensible and don't make your father angry again, understand?"
Shen Junjie was very smart and quickly nodded to admit his mistake: "I understand. I will study hard in the future. Anyway, Lu Yiming is also a classmate of No. 1 Middle School, and I was indeed the one who drove him away. How about I find a way to make up for it?"
He had gotten into a lot of trouble before, but this was the first time he saw his father so angry, and he also wanted to perform well so that his parents would look at him with new eyes, so he said such words.
But after Shen Yiren heard his words, he looked disdainful: "Make up for it? How can you make up for it?"
Feeling the suspicion and contempt in his father's eyes, Shen Junjie felt very dissatisfied. He had grown up, but his parents still treated him like a child.
After all, his 18th birthday was over, and Shen Junjie was unwilling to be a second-generation rich man who was despised by others like before, so he gritted his teeth, raised his head, and met his father Shen Yiren's gaze: "Dad, at worst I can go and apologize to him. We are classmates, and I will give him enough face if I go and apologize in person, he can't possibly refuse, right?"
Shen Yiren thought Shen Junjie had really reformed, and was immediately very happy: "Very good, if you can get Lu Yiming's forgiveness, I will buy you the Mercedes-Benz SLK that you have always liked!"
Shen Junjie was overjoyed when he heard this: "Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back. That's what you said."
"I said, as long as you can get Lu Yiming's forgiveness, I will buy it for you."
Shen Yiren then warned him with a serious expression: "Ajie, after this incident, you have to learn a lesson. You can make trouble, but you can't let the interests of the family be damaged. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, you will have to bear the responsibility alone."
Shen Junjie nodded solemnly: "Dad, I understand."
The next morning after school, Lu Yiming, Shi Qingxue and Cao Jingwen went to the cafeteria to eat together as usual.
A few people got their food and found a place to sit down. Cao Jingwen kept staring at Lu Yiming, making him feel uncomfortable.
"What are you looking at? Are you attracted by my beauty?"
Cao Jingwen rolled her eyes and snorted, "Narcissist!"
Shi Qingxue covered her mouth and chuckled, and pushed Lu Yiming's arm with her elbow: "Be serious."
Lu Yiming curled his lips and complained: "Am I not serious?"
Cao Jingwen looked disgusted: "Bah, who is greedy for your beauty? You are so shameless."
"Then why are you looking at me like that?"
"Lu Yiming, who are you?"
At the dinner table, Cao Jingwen was seen with a puzzled look on her face, staring at Lu Yiming , looking him over and over, as if she wanted to see through him.
Obviously, Lu Yiming's appearance last night gave her a big shock.
Cao Jingwen and Xiao Yuanyuan were able to attend that level of banquet because of Shen Junjie's relationship. And the so-called participation was just to watch the excitement and see the world, no one paid any attention to them at all.
But Lu Yiming is different. After Lu Yiming was driven away by Shen Junjie, Shen Junjie's father Shen Yiren actually wanted to invite Lu Yiming back personally. This is enough to show that Lu Yiming's status is extraordinary.
Lu Yiming smiled and said jokingly, "Of course I am from Earth. Could it be possible that I am from Zenith?"
Cao Jingwen would never listen to Lu Yiming's nonsense. She pursed her lips and knocked on the table hard. "Tell me the truth. Which rich family are you from? Why is even the CEO of Ren'ai Group, Shen Yiren, so afraid of you? After you left last night, you didn't know that Shen Yiren's face was as black as charcoal. If Shen Junjie wasn't his biological son, and his only child, I think he would have wanted to kill his own son for the sake of justice."
Shi Qingxue asked curiously: "What are you talking about? What did you do last night?"
Cao Jingwen smiled and said, "Last night, something really interesting happened. It's a pity that you didn't go. You know Xiao Yuanyuan, right? Didn't she break up with Shen Junjie before? But now they are together again. In order to thank me for helping him and Yuanyuan get back together, he invited us to a banquet hosted by his father."
After saying that, she pointed at someone who was eating quietly and said, "Lu Yiming and Li Quanwang were also invited, but they were kicked out by Shen Junjie in front of everyone."
Although she rarely attends such occasions, Shi Qingxue knows that Shen Junjie is bullying others by doing this, so she immediately stands up for Lu Yiming: "This Shen Junjie is too much, isn't he? Lu Yiming, are you okay?"
Lu Yiming wiped the corner of his mouth, his expression calm: "What can happen to me?"
"Hey, hey, hey, Lu Yiming, you haven't answered my question yet. Why is Shen Junjie's dad so afraid of you?"
"He's not afraid of me, he's afraid of not making money."
Lu Yiming shrugged, having already seen through the matter.
The land in South Bay is now extremely valuable, and there is still a lack of demand for it. After buying land, many people hold on to it and wait for it to appreciate in value.
This made those who arrived a step late very greedy. Many people waved their money and wanted to get in. Even if they couldn't eat the meat, they could at least have some soup.
Under such circumstances, Shen Junjie single-handedly betrayed his own father, and he is truly a filial son. Shen Yiren's decision not to kill his own father for the sake of justice shows that he has excellent emotional self-control.
As they were talking, Shen Junjie and Xiao Yuanyuan walked into the cafeteria hand in hand, attracting many students' attention.
Lu Yiming glanced at them without leaving any trace, but he was too lazy to pay attention: "Oh, the real owner is here, let's eat first, there is no need to take this matter to heart."
Shi Qingxue nodded slightly and buried her head in eating. For her, as long as Lu Yiming didn't suffer any loss, then nothing would matter.
However, to Lu Yiming's surprise, Shen Junjie actually walked straight over and asked humbly, "Student Lu Yiming, can I sit here?"
Cao Jingwen looked up in surprise, and felt that Shen Junjie in front of her seemed like a different person, completely without his previous arrogance and rudeness.
The tables in the school cafeteria are very long, and there are plenty of empty seats next to them.
Lu Yiming had no expression on his face when he heard this, and his eyes were even more indifferent: "If you want to sit down, just sit down. This is not my home. If you ask me, can I stop you from sitting down?"
Shen Junjie quickly pulled Xiao Yuanyuan to sit down, and then he thought about his words for a while before speaking: "Student Lu Yiming, I am here to apologize to you today. I was wrong last night, and I deeply realize my mistake. I hope you can forgive me."
After hearing what Shen Junjie said, Cao Jingwen widened her eyes in surprise, as if she had seen a ghost.
For her, this was truly a blind encounter in broad daylight.
Shen Junjie has always been extremely arrogant in school . Even the teachers dare not discipline him. When have you ever seen him speak to others in such a humble manner?
However, Lu Yiming didn't buy it. He said nonchalantly, "If an apology is useful, then what do we need the police for?"
Shen Junjie was secretly unhappy with this answer, and Xiao Yuanyuan, who was sitting next to him, expressed her dissatisfaction directly: "Why are you like this? Ajie has already apologized to you, are you so intolerant? Is it so difficult to forgive him?"
This matter-of-fact tone made Lu Yiming laugh: "Just because he apologizes, I have to forgive him? What kind of logic is this?"
Xiao Yuanyuan, who was used to being treated like a star by boys, suddenly became angry: "You are too unreasonable, aren't you? You are a boy, and you are so petty."
Lu Yiming had no habit of quarreling with girls. Although he was speechless about Xiao Yuanyuan's love-brained attitude, he didn't say anything harsh.
However, Xiao Yuanyuan helped Shen Junjie to attack Lu Yiming, which made Shi Qingxue, who was sitting next to Lu Yiming, unable to bear it. She stood up and stood in front of Xiao Yuanyuan without showing any weakness: "Shen Junjie was wrong about what happened last night. It is only natural for him to come here to admit his mistake. Now you are making trouble unreasonably. Lu Yiming doesn't owe him anything, let alone you."
Seeing the two women quarreling, Lu Yiming quickly pulled Shi Qingxue and said, "Calm down, eat well, and ignore those irrelevant people. I'm fine."
From beginning to end, Lu Yiming didn't even look at Shen Junjie.
Shen Junjie thought about the Mercedes-Benz SLK he had always dreamed of. He gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Lu Yiming, do you want me to kneel down in public before you forgive my mistake last night?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around was shocked.
Needless to say, Shi Qingxue and Cao Jingwen, even the students who were passing by to get their meals couldn't help but stop and watch curiously when they heard Shen Junjie's words.
They had no idea what the whole story was, but after hearing this, they began to stand up for Shen Junjie.
"No way, they're actually forcing people to kneel down? That's scary."
"We are all classmates. Forcing classmates to kneel down is not good, right?"
"Lu Yiming is so aggressive, there must be something wrong with his character."
It is now lunchtime, and as more and more people enter the cafeteria, more and more people gather around.
Everyone was talking about it, and the topic gradually changed direction. In the end, it turned out that Lu Yiming was overbearing and rude, and forced Shen Junjie to kneel down to him just because of a small matter.
When Shi Qingxue heard this, her nose was crooked with anger, and she argued loudly: "What are you talking about? Do you know the whole story?"
However, her voice is still too small after all. People around her are pointing fingers and talking, and public opinion can be changed by just a few words from her.
Seeing that Shi Qingxue was about to cry, Lu Yiming quickly stopped her: "Don't pay attention to them. It's not worth it to affect your mood for a bunch of idiots."
He turned to Shen Junjie and said, "Kneel down."
"ah?"
Shen Junjie was a little dumbfounded.
The reason why he said that just now was to attract the attention of the people around him, and then he said a few ambiguous words to guide public opinion. As a result, before he even said that, the discussion was on his side. He was secretly happy, thinking that his plan had succeeded. No matter how angry Lu Yiming was, he couldn't bear such great pressure and really make him kneel down.
As a result, Lu Yiming really ignored the discussions around him.
Lu Yiming looked at Shen Junjie's evasive eyes with a half-smile, and said jokingly: "Didn't you just say it? If you kneel down now, I will forgive you. What's the matter? Are you kidding?"
"this……"
Shen Junjie was confused.
There were few people here just now, and if I really wanted to kneel down, I guess there would be few people who could see me because of the table. But now, there is a large circle of people here, probably dozens of them. If I kneel down, wouldn’t I be famous throughout the school?
Shen Junjie shot himself in the foot this time.
Lu Yiming raised his eyebrows and raised his voice a few notches: "I'm asking you to kneel or not?"
