Ending the phone call, Lu Hao was agitated to the extreme.

He glared at Ye Lingchen, his eyeballs almost popping out of its sockets and screamed in a frenzy, “Hahaha, you’re done for! My dad will be here shortly. Start notifying your family to come to collect your corpse! Wahahahaha…”

“What! Chairman Lu is on the way here? This incident is getting escalated!”

“Lu Tianxiong. That’s one of the tyrants of Capital City. Rumor has it that he started from illegal backgrounds and rose to power by building himself up over a mountain of corpses.”

“This is terrible, just too scary. That’s a big shot of legendary levels!”

“To cross this type of person, it would be no surprise to disappear from the face of the earth the very next day. This is scary!”

The people in the hall felt a chill down their spine and their hearts skipped a beat just from the mention of Lu Tianxiong’s name.

Ye Lingchen looked at Lu Hao’s condition, then decided he was in no hurry to act. Instead, he brought a chair over and sat down.

Since the Lin family said they would help him solve this issue, he figured it would be easier to just wait for them to arrive.

Originally, he wanted to see it through to the end and tinker with Lu Hao’s body so that the Lu family would not do anything rash.

Apart from treating the sick, Chinese medicine could also easily sabotage someone’s body.

With the Prodigy System, he could develop his skills quickly. All he needed to do was just delay a little and let himself learn.

However, such a tactic was a worst-case scenario choice.

“Why did you stop? Scared now?” Lu Hao shouted in extreme arrogance, “It’s too late to be scared now! When my dad arrives, even if you kowtow a hundred times, I still won’t leave this be. I’ll have you pay the price for your actions!”

Ye Lingchen outright ignored him and merely waited in silence.

On the side, Xiao Feifei’s eyes were red and teary. Worried sick, she muttered, “Lingchen, why not leave… you should run away now!”

“Run? There’s no need to run!” Ye Lingchen shook his head.

“Sister Feifei, there are such luxurious dishes on the table and nobody to enjoy them. This is too wasteful. Let’s eat first.”

With that, he started eating alone on the table under the gaze of the entire crowd.

Lu Hao’s howling ceased all of a sudden and glared at Ye Lingchen in disbelief and extreme humiliation.

Arrogance, pompous!

That was complete disregard towards him!

Others in the hall were also giving Ye Lingchen weird looks.

Was this optimism, getting ready to go out with a bang?

“Eat, eat away! This will be your last meal!” jeered Lu Hao. If possible, he wanted nothing more than to rush at Ye Lingchen and cut him into pieces!

Finally, the awkward atmosphere was broken by a series of hurried footsteps immediately followed by a group of people entering the hall with intimidating strides.

At the forefront was a middle-aged man with a buzzcut. His height was average, but his presence was imposing, eyes gleaming like that of a venomous snake. The first impression he instilled in the crowd was one of might, cunning, and ruthlessness!
