As doubt set in her eyes, Jiang Dai wrinkled her nose.
Whereas, Old Huang was practically on the verge of tears.
Since his job was to chauffeur Chairman Liang everywhere, it was unlikely for him not to know that Miss Jiang was the woman of Chairman Liang’s heart and the future wife he had in his mind.
If he were to make a mistake and tarnish Chairman Liang’s handsome, upright, gentlemanly image before Jiang Dai, he would definitely lose his job.
With that in mind, he truly felt like weeping but could not shed a single tear. “No, it’s not what you think! If you don’t believe me, why don’t you go take a look?”
Whatever Chairman Liang had done in the alley might be dishonorable and did not conform to his gentlemanly image. There might even be a chance it would affect Miss Jiang’s impression of him.
However, it was undoubtedly better than Miss Jiang mistaking it as Chairman Liang had drunk too much water and made a quick escape to answer a pressing call of nature in a random alley.
Moreover, this alley was located across the street from Bao Li Building.

……
Now that his sense of smell and taste had failed him suddenly and she had ruthlessly stomped on his family jewels with a high heel, Shi Sheng bore the pain and dragged his severely wounded body out of the restaurant several minutes ago……
Yet, he kept repeating to himself, “There’s no way. No, it’s impossible! Superstitious things like this don’t exist, and that woman is only trying to scare me. Since this is the real world and not a fantasy novel, how can someone possess the spiritual power of words? No, that’s not possible! It was merely a coincidence. She might have just bribed the staff in the restaurant kitchen to add something that removes one’s sense of taste temporarily. So everything will be alright. Things will return to normal after a night’s sleep. If nothing works, it’s nothing life-threatening, so I can always see a doctor tomorrow……”
As he made his way to the curb, Shi Sheng was so absentminded and on the brink of a mental breakdown that he could not recall where he parked his car.
Just as he was about to turn around, a black Maybach pulled up on the side of the road and the door opened automatically. Before long, a man stepped out of the car——
Shi Zheng’s line of sight gradually moved upwards, only to find an exceptionally handsome man. At one glance, he was certainly not a regular wealthy folk, as his entire body exuded nobility.
All of a sudden, Shi Sheng recalled the blunt satire that Jiang Dai hurled at him.
She stated that he was a piece of trash that relied on his measly wealth and work opportunities in the industry to toy with young women. If he were a true top-tier gentleman, there would be tons of outstanding women throwing themselves at him, even if he were standing in a place coldly.
As she said so earlier, he had disapproved of her words in the first place. However, a sudden sense of defeat enveloped him as soon as he laid eyes upon this man who owned a Maybach.
For some unknown reason, the man’s face was clouded with unhappiness, emanating a gloomy and terrifying air.
Anyhow, what did this have to do with him?
All this proved that regardless of how wealthy and good-looking a man was, he still had his own problems.
Just as Shi Sheng was about to turn around and get his car, someone grabbed him by the collar.
Shi Sheng spat, “F*ck! Are you crazy?!”
At an instant, he looked back abruptly before an intense fear flickered across his eyes. It turned out that it was the man who alighted from the Maybach……
Could it be that this man was a hatchet man sent by Jiang Dai?!
Gosh, how wealthy was this woman for her bodyguards and hatchet men to look so outstanding?
Anyway, was this woman a nutcase? Was that really necessary, especially when Liang Zhenyu had successfully made her debut without incurring any loss. Now that he thought about it, all she had ever experienced was breaking up with someone at best. Yet, this woman made it seem as though no one had ever had their hearts broken before.
With that in mind, Shi Sheng cursed at his luck inwardly before a false smile contorted his face. “Calm down, bro. What’s the situation? Did you mistake me for someone else?”
The angry man seemed to be coming in approximately 1.9 meters. Although he towered over Shi Sheng by about 10 cm, he reckoned that it should not make much difference. Yet, Shi Sheng had no clue why the difference was so adamant at this moment. Before he had the chance to explain, the man had carried him to a dark, obscure alley as if he were a chicken about to be slaughtered.
The alley was pretty much deserted. Only a few white-collar workers, who had been working overtime, straggled down the path as they headed towards the subway station.
At the very least, there were still people around. Hence, he refused to believe that this man would dare to lay a finger on him.
“Let me remind you, bro, that Yanjing City has cameras in every nook and corner. Despite this being an alley, you should still take it easy and don’t do anything illegal! After all, violence is a violation of the law! So who on earth has sent you here? Is it……Jiang Dai?”
At this juncture, Shi Sheng was pretty much quivering with fright, so much so that he was about to wet his pants. However, he still had to hang in there.
After an accentuated pause, Liang Jingche’s denial put Shi Sheng’s heart at peace. “No.”
“Oh, right…… In that case, you must have mistaken me for another person. That’s right, you must have. Why don’t you let go of me first? After all, I’m the president of an entertainment company. Based on your demeanor, you shouldn’t be someone from the entertainment industry, right? It must be because it’s so dark that you’ve grabbed the wrong person. How is it possible for me to offend someone like you?”
Without a single utterance, Liang Jingche unbuttoned and took off his blazer before throwing it to the side.
On seeing this, Shi Sheng was so frightened that he was on the verge of tears. No, his tears were already streaming down his cheeks. At this point, his entire body was writhing in pain after being bashed in the head by Jiang Dai’s Birkin bag and injured in his nether regions.
It seemed that it was not enough for Liang Jingche to remove his blazer as he began unbuttoning his shirt and rolling up his sleeves. It was evident that he was afraid his shirt might restrict his movement.
Gradually, Shi Sheng became aware that he could no longer escape from this man’s outburst tonight. However, shouldn’t he know the reason for it?
All this time, he might not have kept a low profile and had offended numerous people in the industry. Even though he had never been assaulted, anything could happen when one was out of luck. All these horrible things that had occurred must have accumulated over time.
“Bro! C’mon, Boss! Even if you want to do something to me, shouldn’t you at least let me know the reason behind it all? What the h*ll is going on? Have you mistaken me for another person? Do you not want to ensure you got the right person first?”
However, Liang Jingche drew back his arm and swung a punch——
A loud thump sound reverberated throughout the alley.
Shi Sheng blurted out a bellow of pain and slumped to the ground, seeing stars in his vision. All of a sudden, he came to realize that this was not a simple beating as there was a chance that he might lose his life.
When he heard some people passing by after work, he could not bring himself to care about his dignity. In a split second, he shrieked, “Help, someone help me! I’m being beaten up! Someone call 911!”
Liang Jingche threw a left and right hook——
Boy, did he wallop Shi Sheng hard.
Previously, he merely used 30 to 40 percent of his strength on that frail middle-aged man who molested Sheng Wanwan at the hotel.
However, he had used 90 percent of his strength this time, holding back the remaining 10 percent to ensure Shi Sheng retained his life.
Covering his head, Shi Sheng flinched and shrank into the concrete wall, attempting to evade his punches. “Stop! Please stop! I might just die if you continue…… So please stop hitting me!!”
Upon hearing that, Liang Jingche bent over and grabbed a handful of the man’s hair. Without warning, he jerked Shi Sheng’s head back, causing his bruised, fearful eyes to meet Liang Jingche’s stony gaze.
“Remember, my name is Liang Jingche.”
Suffering from a concussion, the pain that was coursing through his body robbed Shi Sheng of rational thought. “Liang Jingche? Who’s Liang Jingche? You’ve definitely made a mistake and got the wrong person! I don’t know anyone by the name of Liang Jingche.”
A corner of his mouth lifted as Liang Jingche asked, “I’m sure you know Liang Zhenyu, don’t you?”
Shi Sheng looked back at him in wide-eyed surprise while his entire body broke out in cold shivers.
“Z-Zhenyu—”
A harsh slap made his head spin.
Liang Jingche seethed, “You are unworthy to say her name.”
Perhaps it might have been the extreme pain, but he was finally able to link everything together……
Liang Zhenyu, Jiang Dai, and Liang Jingche.
It was no wonder why he thought Liang Jingche’s name seemed somewhat familiar.
Wasn’t he the banker who confessed to Jiang Dai on Weibo a while back?!
Liang Jingche, Liang Zhenyu…… Shi Sheng had never considered linking these two names since this surname was far too common. He could not for the life of him think that Liang Zhenyu had anything to do with a financial tycoon like Liang Jingche.
The pain surging through Shi Sheng’s body had already given him a taste of what it was like to have a fate worse than death.
Regardless of that, he would like to know why at least.
With that in mind, he came to a decision. “Darn it. At least make things clear for me. What exactly is your relationship with Liang Zhenyu?”
Despite that, Liang Jingche continued to beat the living daylights out of Shi Sheng.
When he reckoned he had beaten the other party half to death, he dusted off his hands. “Zhenyu’s father, Liang Xi, is also my father.”
Yes beat him up!!
