Chapter 397 A Huge Fist
Chapter 397 A Huge Fist
Before the first wife could react, Chen Er's knee struck her cheek. The first wife cried out and fell to the ground. Chen Er then straddled her and began to punch her repeatedly in the face with his large fist.
"I'll teach you a lesson for being so arrogant and ungrateful. I'll ask you one last time: are you going to cooperate with me or not? I'll beat you to death today."
Chen Er was truly furious. Good heavens, if he didn't teach the First Madam a lesson now, the remaining Madams would probably be in trouble later.
By the time they arrived at the First Madam's door, several other ladies had already gathered. They were all observing, wanting to see how much silver the First Madam could get from Chen Er so they could try to replicate her scheme.
But now, the faces of the ladies were filled with shame and indignation. Some of the more timid ones had even wet themselves in fear and dared not look at what was happening inside the room. Who would have thought that the once high and mighty Madam Zhao Tianming would be beaten by a mere first-rank official? Zhang Xingchen felt a little helpless.
Although Zhang Xingchen felt a sense of satisfaction at Chen Er beating this damned First Madam, given Chen Er's forceful methods, it wouldn't be long before the First Madam was beaten to death by Chen Er.
This was not the outcome Zhang Xingchen wanted, so he walked up and grabbed Chen Er from behind.
“Brother Chen Er, be patient. This isn’t a solution. If Zhao Tianming finds out and turns around and bites you, I’ll be in trouble.”
In fact, Zhang Xingchen was speaking from the heart. If Zhao Tianming really caught Chen Er doing something wrong, Chen Er could be convicted for assaulting Zhao Tianming's wife.
After all, Zhao Tianming had fallen, but there was still Zhao Beixing, who was eyeing the throne with predatory intent. Chen Er, however, wore an indifferent expression.
"Don't worry, brother, I'll know my limits. I want Zhao Tianming to know that if the First Madam doesn't do as I say today, I'll dig a hole and bury her alive." Chen Er's words were very firm.
The First Madam was terrified. She felt that Chen Er was no longer the first-rank official he once was, but had transformed into a demon. The other ladies who were watching outside were also frightened. Upon hearing Chen Er's words, they all began to tremble.
Some even heard Chen Er's icy voice: "Stop right there, did I tell you to leave? Come in, I need to discuss something with you today."
Although Chen Er spoke very calmly, the anger in his words was no longer concealed.
These ladies were used to flaunting their power, but after all, they were women. Now, seeing this man of the first rank get angry, they looked at each other and went straight into the house. One of the ladies, who was quite good-looking, immediately gave Chen Er a flirtatious look.
The woman presented herself perfectly: "Lord Chen Er, why did you get so angry at her? You almost scared her to death. If you can let her go, I'll do anything you ask."
It is quite obvious that what this lady said had another, deeper meaning.
If Chen Er lets her go, even if he does something to her, this lady won't tell anyone. However, Chen Er has absolutely no interest in these kinds of looks.
"You'd better stay here and listen to my lecture. If anyone dares to make any more moves or leave this room without my permission, I will sell you all to the Qingge Brothel," Chen Er said firmly.
Chen Er slapped the First Madam's plump cheek hard with his palm: "Now I'll ask you one last question: if you were asked to testify against Zhao Tianming, would you be willing or not?"
Chen Er's words were so cold that they made the First Madam break out in a cold sweat, as if a tap had been turned on.
The First Madam's body trembled uncontrollably, her teeth clenched and her eyes red: "Go ahead and kill me if you dare. If you don't give me the money I want today, I absolutely will not agree." The First Madam wasn't stupid; now Chen Er was actually resorting to violence against her.
Then she was determined to resist Chen Er to the end. The First Madam seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly her eyes rolled as she looked at the other ladies again.
"What are you all standing there for? Call someone outside and arrest this guy, he's just a dog in a cloak, what's so great about him?" The First Madam said to Chen Er with great resentment.
However, this only earned him a punch from Chen Er. As for the ladies, when they saw Zhang Xingchen smiling and holding a wooden stick as he walked over with these women, their bodies trembled incessantly.
"Kneel down in the corner with your heads down. If anyone dares to raise their head and look at me again, I'll send you all to the dungeon with this stick, you believe me?"
Zhang Xingchen also realized that to deal with these women, he had to learn from Chen Er's methods; otherwise, these women would really take advantage of him.
Good heavens, as soon as Zhang Xingchen finished speaking, these women all covered their heads with their hands. Where was their aloof and superior lady demeanor? If the maids in the residence saw this, they would be dumbfounded. How could the lady who used to boss them around have become like this?
What's even more ridiculous is that Zhang Xingchen actually placed a lot of potted plants on the heads of these ladies. If any of the potted plants on their heads accidentally fell to the ground, they would be severely beaten by Zhang Xingchen with a wooden stick, so these ladies were all afraid.
The First Madam's eyes were now glazed over; she felt she had met her match today.
With his fearless nature, any man who met him would retreat three feet to the ground. But now it's different. This young man in front of him is too ruthless. If he says no, Zhang Xingchen will immediately slap him.
Now the First Madam is truly terrified: "Lord Chen Er, I'm willing to help you identify Zhao Tianming and listen to you, but you just said you'd give me money, and you can't go back on your word now. Tell me what you're going to give me."
The first wife already regretted it. Just now, Chen Er held up three fingers, and she should have been willing to accept them. Those were all hard-earned silver coins, but she was greedy and now she has nothing.
