Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law

Chapter 156: Calm the Situation and Placate the People!



"Dad..."

Upon seeing Tang Tianpeng arrive, the barely conscious Tang Fei finally lifted his head, slowly resting his chin on the ground, looking at his father with extreme grief and unwillingness, akin to a young beast seeking protection from a powerful creature.

"Dad... it hurts... save me..." Tang Fei said with difficulty, his voice barely a whisper.

Witnessing this scene, Tang Tianpeng felt as if his heart was breaking. He then turned, glaring bitterly at Jiang Feng and asked firmly, "Did you do all of this?!"

"Yes." Jiang Feng replied impassively, exuding a terrifying calmness.

"Ha, you're really something! You've managed to turn my son, Tang Tianpeng's son, into this, truly opening my eyes." Tang Tianpeng said through gritted teeth.

"Is it strange? What makes Tang Tianpeng's son different from others? Not to mention him, even if it were the son of the Heavenly King's father, if he committed an unforgivable mistake, I would make him pay dearly just the same!" Jiang Feng remained calm, but his tone was chilling and undeniable!

"You brat, how dare you talk so big? You must be tired of living!" Tang Tianpeng was so furious, he nearly exploded, speaking with a sinister voice!

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Renxiong and Zhuge Yuheng had already arrived one after the other. When they saw the mess inside the room and the wretched state of Tang Fei and others on the floor, they were taken aback. However, Chu Renxiong quickly spotted the person confronting Tang Tianpeng and was shocked: "Mr. Jiang?!"

The boss of Hongyue hadn't made it clear over the phone, and Chu Renxiong never expected the main perpetrator to be Jiang Feng!

This was quite the predicament...

"Uncle Chu... save me... this guy beat me so badly... you have to stand up for me..." Tang Fei, upon seeing Chu Renxiong arrive, knowing the relationship between him and Jiang Feng, quickly played the victim to sway Chu Renxiong to his side.

"Yuheng, call a doctor, no matter what, saving lives is the priority." Chu Renxiong instructed Zhuge Yuheng in a low voice. Despite so much time passing, no one dared to call an ambulance, letting the situation worsen unnecessarily.

Zhuge Yuheng nodded, gave Jiang Feng a deep look, and went out with his phone to call for help. He didn't know why Jiang Feng acted so ruthlessly against Tang Fei, but he knew that if Jiang Feng was roused to wrath, it had to be serious!

"Renxiong, what do you think we should do?" Tang Tianpeng turned and asked Chu Renxiong. He actually knew full well what to do, but since Chu Renxiong was the elder, he asked to give him face.

"Brother Peng, I think we need to consider this issue carefully, at least we need to understand the cause of the conflict between Xiao Fei and others." Chu Renxiong said unexpectedly, not giving Tang Tianpeng the answer he hoped for.

Huh?

Tang Tianpeng was stunned when he heard this, as this wasn't Chu Renxiong's attitude when he arrived!

"Renxiong?" Tang Tianpeng was somewhat bewildered and also a bit angry.

"Brother Peng, you might not know, let me introduce you. This is Jiang Feng, Mr. Jiang, the man who saved Fei'er's life." Chu Renxiong indicated Jiang Feng with a hint of implication in his tone.

"Jiang Feng?"

Tang Tianpeng was taken aback upon hearing this!

Tang Tianpeng had, of course, heard of Jiang Feng's name, whether it was his obliteration of the Jian Family, weakening of the Kang Family, destruction of Mr. Scar's twenty men, forcing Zhou Rongfa to bow down, the uproarious incident at the Beach Bathing Place causing several big shots to apologize in person, or even Pan Haoting having to yield and visit the Liu Family... he had heard of it all!

However, he had never seen Jiang Feng before, until today!

At this moment, a cold anger filled Tang Tianpeng's heart! He knew Jiang Feng was not to be trifled with, but so what? Now that Jiang Feng had crippled his son, the enmity was irreconcilable, and he must make Jiang Feng pay dearly!

"Renxiong, I know you owe this kid a favor, and it's inconvenient for you to intervene. In that case, I'll handle this myself my own way." Tang Tianpeng said coldly.

Chu Renxiong frowned slightly at his words, glanced at Jiang Feng, gave a polite smile, and then deliberately pulled Tang Tianpeng out under the watchful eyes of everyone.

"Dad?!!" Tang Fei called out laboriously from the ground, sensing a strong foreboding feeling, struggling to call his father back.

Meanwhile, the half-dead Qi Guangyu and others were speechless at this scene. What was going on here? Tang Tianpeng was on the scene; wasn't he supposed to crush that bastard Jiang with overwhelming force? Yet here was Chu Renxiong setting aside brotherly ties for the sake of his daughter's interests?

"Renxiong, what do you want to tell me?" Tang Tianpeng asked outside the room, his face sour.

"Brother Peng, I suggest you settle this matter peacefully." Chu Renxiong said calmly.

"You... what did you say?" Tang Tianpeng was baffled!

He couldn't believe that after knowing Jiang Feng was behind the assault, Chu Renxiong completely changed his stance, not only refusing to stand up for his son but also suggesting he let it go?

Instantly, he was filled with hatred and deeply disappointed in Chu Renxiong.

"Brother Peng, listen to my advice, the immediate priority is to get Xiao Fei medical attention, save his life first. As for the injuries, treat them domestically if possible, if not, send him abroad, the company will cover the costs—but I hope you don't let hatred cloud your judgment, that's unhelpful for you and your business group." Chu Renxiong advised, rarely so earnest.

Tang Tianpeng remained expressionless, but inwardly he was sneering, saying nothing.

"First of all, you must understand that this Jiang Feng is not as simple as he seems. There are some things Yuheng and I know that you don't. I'll explain later, but this man is not one to provoke! Furthermore, I am familiar with his character; though he is formidable, he never picks fights without cause. It must be Xiao Fei who triggered his wrath to incur such a severe beating. We must investigate this matter carefully." Chu Renxiong stated.

"Are you saying my son brought this upon himself, deserving what he got?" Tang Tianpeng asked with a cold smile.

Seeing his attitude, Chu Renxiong couldn't help but frown.

"Renxiong, understand that I'm almost sixty, and I was thirty-six when I finally had a son. I only have this one son!" Tang Tianpeng's eyes were bloodshot. "I treasured him so dearly as if afraid he'd break in my very hands, and now he's been beaten like this. How do you expect me to let it go? Tell me, hmm?"

"Brother Peng, I know, I understand!" Chu Renxiong sighed, his expression softening again, "But brother Peng, we've been brothers for years, have I ever set you up? If you don't trust me this time, I guarantee you will regret it!"

"Alright, I understand." Tang Tianpeng said with a bitter smile, "Renxiong, I know what to do, thank you for your warning."

Then, disheartened, he turned back toward the room.

Only when he turned, his face was cloaked in gloom, bitten lips drawing blood, filled with intense hatred!
