"impossible!"

Yang Wei refused without even thinking.

He knew very well what the consequences would be if he issued a press apology and publicly disclosed the amount of compensation.

When the time comes, it won't be the residents whose homes are being demolished who will come looking for trouble, but rather the leaders and figures in the southern part of the city.

Let alone their Chengnan Construction Company, even the Liu Group is just something that can be easily manipulated by those big shots.

"What? Is it so difficult for you to apologize?"

"Or are you saying you didn't come here to negotiate with me at all?"

Chen Dong had anticipated that the other party would refuse.

When we were negotiating the terms, Yang Wei didn't mention the third point he mentioned at all, clearly trying to lure me in with huge profits and get away with it.

Unfortunately, his little tricks didn't work on him.

"Mr. Chen, we really want to have a proper discussion with you now."

"There's nothing I can do about apologizing."

"As you know, the compensation we've given you is far above the market price. If other residents affected by the demolition find out about this, our company will be under tremendous pressure."

"So, I hope you can understand."

Yang Wei said with a dark face.

But his words were clearly an attempt to downplay the seriousness of the matter.

Chen Dong didn't intend to waste any more time with him and waved his hand.

"Since your company has no intention of apologizing, then there's no need for further negotiation."

"I will appeal this matter to the very end."

"Anyway, I'm homeless and single now, so I have plenty of time to waste on you guys."

This time, he didn't give Yang Wei a chance to speak and turned to leave.

After he left, Yang Wei sat down in his seat with a sullen face.

At this moment, Liu Jun, the man sitting next to him who hadn't spoken until now, finally spoke.

"Looks like this kid's not getting it."

His voice was a little hoarse, and his fingers tapped the table unconsciously.

"Hehe, you two, since Mr. Chen is unwilling to negotiate..."

"How to handle it is none of my business."

"Please make yourselves at home."

The court staff member chuckled and then dismissed them.

The two exchanged a glance, then got up and left the office.

When they arrived outside the courthouse, they saw Chen Dong riding away on a small electric stove.

Inside a black Mercedes parked on the side of the road, Wu Tian sat in the back seat with the window half open.

He watched Chen Dong leave, his brows furrowed.

He felt like he'd seen this person somewhere before, that they seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite place them.

At this moment, Yang Wei and his companion had already arrived in front of the car.

"Manager Wu."

"So? Did that kid agree?"

Wu Tian lit a cigarette and asked with a cold look in his eyes.

"Manager, that kid doesn't know what's good for him."

"He was already tempted by the conditions you offered, but this kid is stubborn and insists that we apologize in the news broadcast in Nancheng and specify the amount of compensation."

Yang Wei explained with a displeased expression.

Upon hearing this, Wu Tian slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, a hint of disdain on his face.

"Apologize?"

"Who does he think he is? Does he even deserve our apology!"

"Since he won't listen to reason, let's just do it. Old Liu, remember, be clean and don't leave any clues."

"Anyway, this kid's parents are both dead, so adding him will make it a perfect family reunion."

After saying that, he leaned back.

The driver understood immediately and drove away.

"Old Liu, I'm leaving this to you."

"If you finish this tonight, you'll make a lot of money. I'm so envious. You earn more from one deal than I do in a year."

Yang Wei patted Liu Jun on the shoulder, looking on with envy.

In the past, Liu Jun would receive a considerable sum of money after each job, and this time would certainly be no exception.

Moreover, each transaction starts at least in the millions!

"Heh! You think this money comes easily?"

"If I get caught, I'll be the one getting shot."

"I'll risk my life, can you?"

Liu Jun chuckled, completely unfazed by receiving the money.

He's risking his life to make money now; if something happens, the company will use him as a scapegoat.

There is a constant risk of death!

Yang Wei chuckled awkwardly, "Well... I'm not as good as you."

"Alright, let's find a place to eat first, so we can get back to work when we're full."

……

the other side.

Chen Dong rode the small electric stove back to his old rented room.

Although he hadn't earned much money and didn't have a girlfriend, the room, though old, was very clean, and everything was neatly arranged.

Even though he was gone for a few days, the room didn't get too dusty.

After a quick tidying up, I sat down on the old sofa to think about my next move.

At present, there is no room for reconciliation between him and Chengnan Construction Company.

If the other party wants to continue cooperating with the Lin Group, they must obtain the necessary permits.

But if I don't give in, the other party won't be interested for at least a year or two.

Now that he's the fake young master of the Lin family, it's impossible for him to drag this out for so long.

Chengnan Construction Company certainly wouldn't let such a big piece of meat go to waste, so... the only possibility is that they will disappear!

He guessed that the other party was definitely going to send someone to get rid of him.

However, if he were to become the fake young master of the Lin family, it would definitely be problematic if the other party couldn't find him.

To find something on the other party, he might need to stay here for the next couple of days.

Thinking of this, he took out his phone and called Zhang Lei.

"Feed? Manager Zhang."

"I have some urgent business to attend to these two days, so I need to take two days off."

"There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

At this point, Zhang Lei wouldn't dare to provoke Chen Dong anymore. As long as he didn't see what happened to him, he was fine with it, since it wasn't Chen Dong who was paying his salary anyway.

"Of course, no problem!"

"That's fine then."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Dong turned around and called Gu Li again.

"Mr. Gu."

Gu Li's somewhat cold voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Just woke up? Call me now."

"Were you too tired last night?"

Chen Dong knew without guessing that Gu Li was very unhappy with the sarcasm in her words.

But... there's nothing I can do!

Who knew that her life and her own life were already in someone else's hands?

"No, this time it's because of my own problems."

"I'll probably be staying at my rented apartment for the next couple of days."

"I'll call you once this is all over."

Upon hearing this, Gu Li frowned slightly.

She probably already guessed why.

"Do you need my help?"

"No need, it might cause some trouble if we get caught."

Chen Dong declined Gu Li's offer.

He doesn't really take ordinary people seriously unless they're boxing champions or world champions.

"Then be careful."

"Um!"

After a brief chat, Chen Dong hung up the phone.

After thinking about it, I still felt it was a bit too risky.

So he called Zhao Hu again.

"Zhao Hu, do you have time?"

"I'll send you an address. Find a few good guys to come and wait here."

"It would be best to call Mangzi along; he knows me! I might be in a little trouble these next couple of days."
