Some less-developed counties don't even have an annual GDP of five billion, and here he is, offering five billion as a betrothal gift. That... that's just an insane amount of money, isn't it?
Look at this, and then look at Lin Yunlong's gift... his was fucking garbage in comparison.
And Lin Yunlong still wanted to compare himself to Ye Feng? What a fucking joke!
Even more terrifying, choosing Ye Feng meant forging connections with these titans. In the future, it wouldn't just be five billion; they could get their hands on fifty billion, or even five hundred billion.
At this point, even an idiot would know what to choose.
Sure enough, once Xiao Gang snapped out of his shock, he turned to Lin Yunlong, his expression instantly turning hostile.
As soon as Xiao Gang made a move, Lin Yunlong knew what he was about to do, so he looked at Xiao Gang and quickly shouted, "Father-in-law, you promised to marry Yufei to me! You can't lose your head at a critical moment like this!"
Xiao Gang looked at Lin Yunlong and suddenly said with a thin smile, "Lin Yunlong, let me just ask you one thing. If you were in my shoes, what would you choose?"
The moment he heard this, Lin Yunlong instantly understood. His face turned livid!
He glared at Xiao Gang and spat through clenched teeth, "Xiao Gang, you treacherous, profit-driven bastard! Just you wait. You will regret the decision you made today!"
Then he turned his head to glare at Ye Feng. "You piece of shit, don't think you can act all high and mighty in front of me just because you have a few powerful relatives. Let me tell you, you're dreaming!
The Lin family is the top dog in Jiangcheng. Offend me, and I'll make you pay. Just you wait!"
Finished, he roared at his men beside him, "Take all this stuff away! Get it out of here! The Xiao family isn't worthy of it! Not worthy!"
The men obeyed, immediately picking up the items to leave.
Lin Yunlong glared at Ye Feng, his eyes bloodshot, and said, "You piece of shit, just you wait."
With that, he turned to leave.
But before he could take two steps, Mu Qingyun's calm voice came from behind him. "Hold it right there."
Lin Yunlong quickly stopped, turned to Mu Qingyun, and asked with a forced, fawning smile, "Chairman Mu, what are your instructions?"
Mu Qingyun walked up to Lin Yunlong and spoke calmly, "There's something I don't quite understand. I was hoping you could clarify it for me.
You're the one trying to steal my little brother's wife?"
"Chairman Mu, actually, Xiao Yufei isn't married to Ye Feng yet. I just happen to like Xiao Yufei and want to marry her. I had no intention of 'stealing' her..." Lin Yunlong hurriedly explained.
He dared to talk tough in front of Ye Feng, but he wouldn't dare act arrogantly in front of Mu Qingyun even if it cost him his life.
Are you kidding? A single hair from her was thicker than his waist. Acting arrogant in front of someone like that was suicide.
But before he could finish, Mu Qingyun cut him off. "Alright, no need to explain. I get it now. You just thought you could bully my little brother because your family has some stinking money!
Bullying my little brother is the same as bullying me. And that... I won't allow!"
With that, she took out her phone, made a call, and said calmly, "Within the hour, I want to hear news of the Jiangcheng Lin family's destruction."
That sentence was like a clap of thunder that nearly struck Lin Yunlong dead.
"No...!" Lin Yunlong shrieked. "Chairman Mu, I was wrong! I'll never dare to compete with Ye Feng for Yufei again! Yufei is his! She's all his! Please, just spare me!"
But before Mu Qingyun could say anything, Chen Yun'Er stepped forward from behind her and asked him calmly:
"What was that you said just now? That the Lin family is the top dog in Jiangcheng? That if my little brother offends the Lin family, you'll make him pay? Well, now I'd like to see just how 'top' this top dog of a Lin family really is!"
With that, she took out her phone and made a call. "Yuan Long, this is Chen Yun'Er. I just want to ask you one thing: how exactly are you governing Jiangcheng that you allow a 'local snake' like the Lin family to exist? Don't you know I hate snakes?
I'm giving you one day to exterminate all the 'snakes' in Jiangcheng. If I see another creature of this species again, I won't mind replacing the mayor of Jiangcheng."
Lin Yunlong let out a mournful cry and collapsed to the ground. This wasn't just about making the Lin family bankrupt; this was about wiping them off the face of the earth!
But the truly scalp-numbing part was yet to come.
Mu Qingyun was heard saying calmly to Chen Yun'Er, "Yun'Er, call Eldest Sister. Have her lead a million of her elites on a trip to Jiangzhou. Tell her our little brother has been bullied."
Chen Yun'Er shook her head. "Eldest Sister is too kind-hearted. We should call Number Five instead. You know what they say about him—wherever he goes, not even a blade of grass grows."
Lin Yunlong nearly pissed his pants.
'This... Isn't this too ruthless?'
Just then, Feng Qingwu, who was standing nearby, shook her head and said with a look of compassion, "Oh, dear. Today is our little brother's big day. Why all this talk of fighting and killing? It's so inauspicious."
Hearing this, Lin Yunlong thought, 'Finally, a reasonable one!' He looked at Feng Qingwu, silently thanking her ancestors for eight generations. But Feng Qingwu's next sentence made Lin Yunlong's world instantly crumble.
Feng Qingwu was heard saying calmly, "Besides, you don't need to be so bloody to deal with people!"
With that, she took out her phone and made a call. "This is Feng Qingwu. Relay my directive: if any doctor in the Great Xia Empire dares to treat anyone in Jiangcheng with the surname Lin, then I will make them sick. I'll make their entire family sick."
Chen Yun'Er stared at Feng Qingwu, her eyes wide. "Fourth Sister, you're planning to have the Lin family completely die out!"
Feng Qingwu nodded. "This guy is rotten to the core. A family that can raise a creature like this must have a bad bloodline. So, I will make the Jiangcheng Lin family's line end. Completely and utterly."
Lin Yunlong felt his heart shatter. 'This is even more fucking ruthless!'
Lin Yunlong cried out wretchedly, "My great ancestors, I wouldn't dare oppose Ye Feng! I was just saying some things to save face, that's all! That's all...!"
With that, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted dead away.
Someone quickly came over and dragged Lin Yunlong away.
In this confrontation, Lin Yunlong was utterly defeated.
He lost everything, right down to his underwear.
Seeing Lin Yunlong faint, Xiao Gang wasn't bothered in the slightest. Now that he had Ye Feng, he wouldn't even blink an eye if Lin Yunlong dropped dead.
He hurried over to Ye Feng. Seeing the check in Ye Feng's hand, his own eyes lit up. He rubbed his hands together and said with a sycophantic grin:
"Ye Feng, quick, give me that check. If the wind blows it away, it'll be a huge loss."
With that, he tried to snatch the check.
But Ye Feng pulled his hand back, looked at Xiao Gang, and asked mockingly, "Let me ask you, how does my betrothal gift compare to Lin Yunlong's?"
Xiao Gang exclaimed excitedly, "It's like comparing the blazing sun to a firefly's glow! They're not even on the same level! My good son-in-law, quick, give me the check. If it gets torn, I think my heart would break."
With that, he impatiently tried to snatch the check again.
But in the next moment, something unexpected happened.
