Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 423 - 338 Cautious Chen Ziteng_3

After all, even Liu Jun couldn’t compare to Li Jing in terms of strength, so Chen Ziteng was certainly no match for him.

But with the arrival of Boss Zhu, the situation became complicated.

The reason Liu Jun and the other rich second-generation members gave Li Jing face was because of his close ties with Chen Wenwu and Liu Dazhi.

Chen Wenwu and Liu Dazhi had informed the parents of those rich kids, so they were actually forced by their elders’ pressure to bow their heads to Li Jing.

But Boss Zhu wasn’t a second-generation rich; to be precise, he was a self-made first-generation wealthy.

He had no connections with Li Jing, and Li Jing indeed had no business foundations in Hai City.

To Boss Zhu, Li Jing was just a wealthy tourist, and he had no reason to show him any mercy.

More crucially, everyone was still on the boat chartered by Boss Zhu.

Although the internet celebrities who came aboard had paid their fees, Boss Zhu had also spent a lot of money to charter the boat. Aside from the influencers, most people on board were Boss Zhu’s people.

Originally, there was no conflict between Zhou Yingying and Boss Zhu, and even if Nuannuan and Brother Long went to complain to Boss Zhu, he wouldn’t necessarily take sides.

But the problem precisely lay with Chen Ziteng.

Chen Ziteng had a good relationship with Boss Zhu. If he bad-mouthed her and Li Jing in front of Boss Zhu, Zhou Yingying felt uncertain about whether Boss Zhu could handle the matter fairly.

He might even make a decision unfavorable to her and Li Jing out of consideration for Chen Ziteng.

Thinking about this, Zhou Yingying became increasingly worried and even felt a bit apologetic, saying softly to Li Jing beside her, "Brother Jing, I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect it to turn out this way, dragging you into it."

Li Jing merely gave her a slight glance, his expression calm and composed, "It’s a trifling matter, hardly an entanglement."

Seeing Li Jing so calm and fearless, Zhou Yingying was secretly surprised, but she couldn’t help but remind him again, "Brother Jing, although Boss Zhu is young, his strength is formidable, not to be underestimated.

Even though Boss Zhu’s family background and financial resources might not match those of the old families like the Shi Family or the Liu Family, he is now almost the leading figure in the entire new media industry in Hai City, with massive influence.

Sometimes, he even ignores the face of many established families. Moreover, it’s rumored that he has connections with the city leaders."

At this point, Zhou Yingying hesitated for a moment, then said to Li Jing with a serious and complicated expression:

"Brother Jing, if Boss Zhu really comes to help Chen Ziteng deal with us later, then don’t mind us. With your status, as long as you speak clearly, Boss Zhu will give you some respect and won’t easily touch you."

Upon hearing this, Li Jing raised an eyebrow, "What about you?"

"I... I could just apologize to them. Honestly, even kneeling wouldn’t be a big deal, just losing a bit of face, after all, I’m used to it."

Seeing the desolation and bitterness on Zhou Yingying’s face, Li Jing didn’t say more. Instead, he walked to the side, pulled up a chair to sit down, and then said to Zhou Yingying, "Could you help me get a cup of coffee? I’m a little thirsty."

Zhou Yingying was startled, surprised that at this moment, Li Jing still had the mind to drink coffee.

But since he made the request, she dared not refuse, so she nodded and walked toward the nearby coffee room.

Seeing Li Jing acting as if he didn’t take them seriously, Chen Ziteng and others’ expressions grew darker.

Beside him, Brother Long gritted his teeth and clenched his fists in anger, vengefully saying, "This guy really knows how to put on an act! Young Master Chen, when Boss Zhu comes later, we must make him pay a price. After all, we’re all on the boat, and we’re not afraid he’ll make any trouble!"

Hearing Brother Long’s words, Chen Ziteng remained silent.

His temperament was much steadier and more cautious than Liu Jun’s. Seeing Li Jing so confident, he increasingly felt that the other party might not be as simple as he seemed on the surface.

But now he was already set against him, and since Li Jing had embarrassed him in public earlier, he couldn’t easily let him go. He could only wait for Boss Zhu to arrive and find a way to trouble Li Jing.
