TDDDMFM Chapter 52: The Real Boss
Zhang Tao didn't even look at Chen Hao. Instead, he came directly to Zhou Xiaobei, bowed in front of everyone, and apologized:
"Xiaobei, I'm sorry. I really didn't know that this bastard Chen Hao dared to offend you. Don't worry, I'll personally take care of him and give you a satisfactory explanation!"
The entire casino suddenly fell silent.
Countless people were dumbfounded.
Zhang Tao, the future heir of the Zhang family, the young master of the Zhang family, such a big shot, actually... actually bowed and apologized to the young man in front of him? His attitude was so humble?
Could they be hallucinating?
Was everything in front of them just a dream?
Boom!
Chen Hao was thunderstruck!
He was dumbfounded!
His jaw almost dropped to the floor and smashed into his own feet.
Subconsciously pinching his thigh, he almost cried out in pain.
It wasn't a dream!
Zhou Xiaobei crossed his arms and said coldly, "This guy just now tried to cut off my hand."
"Cut off your hand?"
Zhang Tao's face darkened, and he turned to the stunned Chen Hao. "You wanted to cut off Xiaobei's hand?"
Chen Hao felt chills running down his spine.
He didn't know Zhou Xiaobei knew Zhang Tao!
"Boss, I-I didn't mean to!"
"Come here!"
Chen Hao nervously approached, but before he could speak, Zhang Tao slapped him directly, knocking him to the ground. Half of his face visibly swelled up, and his teeth felt loose.
"Boss..."
Chen Hao covered his face, sitting on the ground in shock.
"You blind fool!" Zhang Tao said coldly. "Chen Hao, considering your years of service to the Zhang family, I'll give you a chance to make amends. Kneel down and apologize to Xiaobei. You better pray that Xiaobei doesn't hold it against you, otherwise, you're dead."
Kneel down?
Apologize!
Chen Hao's facial features squeezed together, resembling someone who had just eaten a bowl of hot excrement. "Boss, he-he's just a country bumpkin. You're actually making me kneel down and apologize to him? I've been with you for over ten years!"
For a country bumpkin, Zhang Tao actually wanted him to kneel down, or else he would kill him? Chen Hao felt infinitely wronged and confused. It felt like the world had gone mad!
"Too much nonsense!"
Zhang Tao snorted, then delivered another slap to Chen Hao, causing blood to flow from his mouth and loosening his molars.
"Kneel down and apologize, or else die!"
Zhang Tao's face was extremely cold, with a chilling gleam in his eyes.
Chen Hao couldn't help but shudder.
It was the first time in his life that he had seen such a cold and ruthless look in his boss's eyes.
It was as if he could chop him into mincemeat in the next second!
"Thud!"
Zhang Tao knelt down:
"I, I apologize to you, sir. I was wrong before. I apologize to you. I was blind and didn't recognize Mount Tai. Please spare me!"
The crowd in the casino was dumbfounded.
Chen Laoda, who had dominated the underworld in Xiangcheng, actually knelt down publicly!
Although he was forced by Zhang Tao, it was still amazing!
It was probably unbelievable even if it was told to others!
"Xiaobei, this worthless piece of trash has already knelt down and apologized to you. Are you satisfied? If you're not, I'll find someone to chop off his hands," Zhang Tao said.
Chen Hao actually offended Xiaobei, which was truly unforgivable.
When Zhang Tao heard that this idiot Chen Hao had clashed with Zhou Xiaobei, he was truly shocked.
The old man had previously instructed repeatedly to treat Zhou Xiaobei as a distinguished guest. Yet this foolish Chen Hao nearly caused a major incident.
Unforgivable!
At the moment, Zhang Tao only hoped that Zhou Xiaobei wouldn't hold any grudges because of this incident. As for Chen Hao... he was not worth regretting!
Upon hearing that his hands might be chopped off, Chen Hao was frightened to death and quickly begged for mercy.
"You idiot, shut up! Don't you know how much trouble you've caused us? Having your hands cut off is already lenient. If it weren't for your many years of service to our Zhang family, I would have thrown you into the Yangtze River!" Zhang Tao coldly exclaimed.
"Don't do this, Boss, I know I was wrong, I really know. Please spare me this time. I promise, there won't be a next time... After all, I've been with you for so many years, I've suffered and toiled!" Chen Hao grabbed Zhang Tao's thigh desperately.
"What do you want me to do? You should be begging Zhou Xiaobei," Zhang Tao said.
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Chen Hao knelt down in front of Zhou Xiaobei and desperately knocked his head against the ground.
Blood flowed from his forehead.
"Zhou Xiaobei, I'm an idiot. I beg you to forgive me. I won't dare to offend you again. From now on, I'll be your dog. I'll go wherever you want me to go, do whatever you want me to do, even if you want me to eat shit!" Chen Xiaobei pled, tears streaming down his face.
Bei Xiaobei watched Chen Hao knock his head.
In no time, Chen Hao's forehead was bleeding profusely.
After considering it for a moment, he decided to let Chen Hao off the hook.
"Enough, seeing how sincerely you're apologizing, I'm not the kind of person who refuses to forgive. Get up, I'll spare you!"
Chen Hao felt as if he had been granted a reprieve and collapsed to the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
"Useless thing, always causing trouble for our Zhang family. I'll tell you the truth, this Zhou Xiaobei is the miraculous doctor who cured the Old Master's illness. Even the Old Master respects him greatly. You dared to offend him, you truly deserve to die... Since Zhou Xiaobei isn't planning to pursue you, I'll spare you this time. If there's a next time, just find a rope and hang yourself!"
Chen Hao felt utterly weak.
So, this was the miraculous doctor who cured the Old Master's illness. He was indeed a fool, offending the lifesaver of Zhang Lao. It was like being a fool's fool!
"Exchange the chips for me. I'm leaving."
Zhou Xiaobei pointed to the chips on the table.
These were the chips he had won fair and square, and he wanted to take them with him.
Without another word, Zhang Tao immediately instructed the staff to exchange the chips. As for the damaged casino... they could only count their losses.
Zhou Xiaobei happily pocketed the bank draft of 12 million yuan he exchanged for the chips and was about to leave. However, Zhang Tao suddenly stopped him.
"Wait a moment, Zhou Xiaobei."
"What's the matter?"
Zhang Tao said, "Zhou Xiaobei, tomorrow there's an important event in Xiangcheng, and our Zhang family will be participating. I'd like to invite you to come along."
"An event? What kind of event?"
"It's a gathering organized by some prominent families and celebrities in Xiangcheng. There will be some distinguished guests attending, which should be interesting. Also, I plan to introduce you to some friends to expand your network. It's always beneficial to have more connections!"
"Oh, I see! Not interested!"
With a wave of his hand, Zhou Xiaobei immediately refused.
He beckoned Zhao Xiaole to follow him and left the casino directly.
