Chapter 345: Chapter 344 This Is an Investment

Su Yang said, "You insult people like that and you think you don’t need to apologize or seek their forgiveness?"

The legal officer looked at Su Yang and was silent for a good while, before he finally ground his teeth and said in a low voice, "Sorry... I’m sorry..."

Just as Ying’er was about to speak, Su Yang waved his hand at her, and she immediately closed her mouth.

"Your apology doesn’t seem sincere enough!" Su Yang, with his arms crossed, laughed and said, "If Miss Ying’er doesn’t forgive you, then your apology doesn’t count!"

"You..." The legal officer panicked, "What else do you want me to do? I’ve already apologized. If she doesn’t accept it, how is that my fault?"

"As I said, your sincerity is lacking!" Su Yang laughed, "Or, you could try kneeling and kowtowing to apologize!"

"In your dreams!" The legal officer, infuriated, retorted, "Don’t push me, if it really comes to calling the police, you won’t get away with hitting me like you did. But, those words I said about you, who can testify that I’ve spoken them?"

Everyone around turned their heads away; of course, they were on the side of the legal officer.

Su Yang said with a faint smile, "Why bother looking for someone to testify? When I came in, I just so happened to turn on the voice recorder on my phone. Everything you’ve said is on there now. Would you like to listen to it again?"

"You... you..." The legal officer was dumbfounded; he never dreamt Su Yang would do such a thing.

"So, will you call the police, or will you apologize?" Su Yang said with a smile.

The legal officer looked at Ying’er and then at the people around him, ultimately he could only lower his head and kneel down: "Miss Ying’er, I’m... I’m sorry..."

Ying’er’s expression softened slightly, but still, Su Yang waved at her, signaling her not to speak.

Seeing Ying’er remain silent, the legal officer got even more anxious, "Miss Ying’er, what exactly do you want? I’ve knelt down; you... what else do you want?"

"That tone of yours doesn’t sound like you’re apologizing!" Su Yang drawled, "Or should we call the police?"

"Don’t..." The legal officer pleaded urgently, "Miss Ying’er, you... what exactly would it take for you to forgive me? Just tell me and I’ll do it, can’t I?"

Ying’er didn’t speak, and Su Yang laughed, "Miss Ying’er has a kind heart and doesn’t wish to make things difficult for you. However, what you did was really too much. How about this? I suggest you slap yourself a hundred times. After you’re done, we can consider the matter settled, how’s that?"

"Slap myself?" The legal officer was stunned, "You... are you joking? Slap myself a hundred times..."

"If you’re not willing, let’s forget it, then I’ll call the police!" Su Yang took out his phone.

"Stop, stop, I’ll... I’ll slap myself..." The legal officer, disheartened, took several deep breaths before he raised his hand and gave himself a trembling slap.

"I might as well call the police, that was too light!" Su Yang said, "There’s no sincerity at all!"

"I’ll do it, I’ll do it..." The legal officer cried out hastily, then slapped himself hard on the face and hurriedly asked, "Is that enough?"

"Good, that’s one, continue!" Su Yang said, "A hundred times; if even one is too light, then I’m calling the police!"

The legal officer, exasperated to the point of rolling his eyes, ultimately had no choice but to slap himself a hundred times, each one landing heavily on his cheek. By the halfway point, his mouth was as swollen as a sausage, and blood oozed from the corner.

Ying’er, feeling distressed, attempted to speak several times but was stopped by Su Yang each time. This kind of person, who spoke so insultingly, how could they not be taught a lesson?

After a hundred lashes, the man was almost passed out.

"Very well, we forgive you!" Su Yang said with a smile, "Remember, next time you should watch what you say and have some virtue!"

The legal affairs staff was lying on the ground, breathless and speechless.

Su Yang left the scene with Ying’er, strutting confidently. From his demeanor, one would never guess he had just lost 570 million, instead, it looked as though he had made a profit of 570 million.

As they entered the elevator, Ying’er immediately asked anxiously, "Su Yang, what are you doing? Why... why are you spending this money? The Shangguan family has not fallen so low that we need charity from others!"

As she spoke, Ying’er’s eyes turned red. The insults she had endured these past few days had been too much. Today’s incident had pushed her close to breaking point, and she had once again seen the sinister side of human nature.

"Ah, Miss, don’t worry!" Su Yang said with a laugh, "I know the Shangguan family is wealthy, but you can’t stop me from investing!"

"What?" Ying’er was totally confused: "What investment?"

"Hehe..." Su Yang chuckled, "Don’t worry, nobody can take my money just like that. If they want to swallow my money, they’ll have to pay a much bigger price. But let’s be clear; I’ve put in 570 million, and when we make a profit, I’m taking 60 percent!"

Ying’er was still baffled: "How...how are you going to make money? This is a penalty fee, how can it be an investment?"

"That’s not for you to worry about, just know that I’m taking 60 percent!" Su Yang said with a smile.

Looking at Su Yang, Ying’er said irritably, "You can take it all, I don’t believe you can make a profit. If we don’t make any money, my Shangguan family will repay you!"

As they stepped out of the elevator, Su Yang could hear a commotion in the lobby. Looking closely, he saw a group of people arguing loudly, and the manager who had insulted Ying’er earlier crouched on the floor like a beaten dog, wretched in the extreme.

The ones beating him were the little girl’s family members. They were extremely aggressive upon arriving, starting a fight without any discussion.

Some people initially tried to intervene, but after the little girl’s father and brother pulled out knives and wounded several people, everyone scattered.

At this point, no one dared to step in. These were people who had lost a loved one, out for blood, and no one wanted to risk their wrath.

And honestly, what the manager had done wasn’t honorable either; why would anyone risk their life for him?

The manager used to strut around in a suit and tie, looking dapper. Now, he was being beaten so badly he was soiling himself, lying on the ground and wailing incessantly. Yet the family showed no sign of stopping; they kept coming back to kick him and vent their anger.

When Su Yang and Ying’er walked out of the elevator, they immediately drew the attention of the onlookers. People were whispering, and their gazes towards Su Yang were filled with awe. After all, his prophecy had been incredibly accurate!

Uncle Kang was watching the commotion from a distance and quickly came over when he saw the two of them, "Miss, Master Su, how did it go?"

"We’ve paid the penalty fee!" Su Yang said with a laugh.

"Ah?" Uncle Kang was dumbfounded: "Weren’t you...weren’t you supposed to negotiate properly? How come you ended up paying the penalty fee? How much did you pay?"

"Let’s not talk about that now..." Su Yang said with a smile, "Where is Lan Ci? Let’s go see her first!"

"Why are you looking for her?" Ying’er asked curiously, "She has been in a bad mood these days and hasn’t come to work. She’s probably facing termination as well, I guess!"

Su Yang said with a laugh, "Well, I’ve thrown all the investment money out; it’s time to look for returns!"
