Chapter 710: Reinforcement

The corner of the veterinarian’s lips twitched. A lot of money?

He seriously doubted the child’s concept of what a lot of money was. After seeing how inferior his pony was, he was afraid that this child did not have much money. Even if he tried to gather all his money, it would still be a ridiculous joke.

The veterinarian was lazy to care about this child’s small fortune and did not want to offend General Manager Zhou, so he turned around to treat the other horses.

Shaohui was angry and anxious, but General Manager Zhou was still gloating over his misfortune. “Little brat, you’ve injured my son, so why are you still caring about that pony? Quickly apologize to my son or I’ll call someone over to beat that damned pony to death!”

Suddenly, Shaohui looked up at him without saying a word as if he wanted to remember his appearance in his heart.

General Manager Zhou shuddered after the child looked at him. What was going on? This child seemed more terrifying than most adults! This must be an illusion. Being General Manager for more than twenty years, what sort of turbulent times had he not experienced? How could he be scared by a child’s glare?

General Manager Zhou tried his best to suppress the uncomfortable feeling and sternly reprimanded the child. “What are you looking at?! Be careful or I’ll dig your eyes out!”

At the side, General Manager Zhou’s secretary was amused. “This little brat is so insensible. He’s not worthy of you stooping to his level. After I’ve checked who his parents are, I will get his parents to kneel and kowtow in front of your family’s young master as payback.”

General Manager Zhou thought about it and felt that this idea was not bad, so he nodded in satisfaction.

The surrounding entourage tried to flatter General Manager Zhou and scoffed at Shaohui.

However, Shaohui fell silent. He looked around and saw that older child who used his phone to call for help. Thus, he plucked up his chubby feet and ran towards him.

“Does he know Young Master Du Zheng?” General Manager Zhou’s secretary was shocked.

A few adults looked at one another and felt that the situation was a little unsatisfactory. If the child really had a relationship with the young master of the Du Family, it would disadvantageous for them to scoff at him.

“Let’s go and take a look.” General Manager Zhou said. Besides, his son was not severely hurt and was already properly bandaged by the medical personnel. He had a lot of time to deal with Shaohui’s problems.

The group of people followed.

They saw Shaohui stop in front of Du Zheng. He said, “Lend me your phone.”

Du Zheng was currently telling the story of the incident to an adult. He lowered his head. When he saw the child, he was a little impatient. “Why are you here again, idiot? Go play somewhere else.”

The adults who followed him were relieved. It seemed that this child only wanted to take advantage of young master Du Zheng. General Manager Zhou laughed. “Little bastard, you have to be aware of your status when dealing with things. If you’re poor and pathetic, don’t try to act high and mighty. Hahahaha.”

The other people who followed him laughed as well.

Shaohui ignored him and emphasized every word to Du Zheng. “Lend me your phone and I will owe you a favor. If you don’t lend me your phone and my pony dies because its treatment was delayed, none of you will have good days in the future.” He rarely threatened others. No, in fact, this was the first time he was threatening someone. Now, he naturally exuded an unquestionable aura. Calm, firm, graceful, and a little sinister.

Du Zheng was taken aback. Which family did this child belong to? Why was he raised like that?

He grew up in a wealthy circle and thought he was among the greatest out of the wealthy people, but he was not as threatening as Shaohui at his age.

This child...

Was not simple.

Although Du Zheng was young, he was not as superficial as General Manager Zhou who only knew how to judge people by their appearances. He took the opportunity and gave his phone to the child. “Little idiot, you owe me two favors.”

Borrowing his phone was one favor. Leading the little idiot to safety during the chaos was another favor. The Du Family had always been capitalists and liked to maximize their resources.

However, Shaohui was not as calculative. He took the phone and directly dialed Li Lei’s number.

“Uncle Li, quickly come over.” The child anxiously said. “My pony was knocked down by another horse and is dying on the ground. Quickly bring a veterinarian over to save my pony!” He knew that at this time, it was better to call his father than his stupid mother. In front of outsiders, he couldn’t call Li Lei dad, so he called him uncle like he did in the past.

The surname “Li” was very rare, so the crowd did not think of Li Lei at once.

“Uncle Li? What Uncle Li?” General Manager Zhou frowned and asked his secretary.

The secretary shook his head. There was no rich family in the city which had the surname of “Li.” With this clarified, the adults were very relieved. Sure enough, this was the child of a poor family.

“Young Master Du.” General Manager Zhou said a little flatteringly, “You don’t have to care about this bastard and lend him your phone. What if he’s full of germs? He might dirty your phone. How about I buy a new phone for you tomorrow. I assure you that it won’t be any less than the one you’re using now.”

Although Du Zheng was not very old, he was the most outstanding boy in the next generation of the eminent Du Family. He was taken care of by his father Du Yunhong and protected by his uncle Du Yunfeng. He was the pride of the family and countless people pursued him.

Du Zheng did not comment. Instead, he looked at General Manager Zhou again after he said “bastard.”

He had very good hearing and was the closest to Shaohui, so he already heard clearly that he was calling someone in the Li Family. This surname was very rare and coincidentally, it was a family that was even more powerful than the Du Family.

If he had any relations with the Li Family, it was worth it to get favors from him.

On the other hand, General Manager Zhou was still unafraid of death. “Little bastard, do you think I won’t dare to deal with you just because you asked your family to come out? Let me tell you, even if the world falls apart today, they will kowtow to my son! You will pay him back ten times the injury you caused him!”

“Who wants me to kowtow?” Suddenly, a lazy voice was heard.

General Manager Zhou was spluttering with rage. “It’s me who wants you to kowtow for your son. What’s wrong, lowly dog? Unwilling to submit?” As he spoke, he turned around. Suddenly, it was as if someone choked him and he stopped cursing abruptly.

Under the sun, a handsome man stood against the wind with a sharp knife scar on his cheek which caused him to look somewhat cruel when he laughed. “Lowly dog? This title is quite fresh.”

“Li... Young Master Li!” Everyone was stunned.

Oh god, were they mistaken? How could Li Lei appear here? What did he just say? “This title is quite fresh”?! Could it be that he was this dirty child’s “uncle”?!
