Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Chapter 243 – 243 Xie Ligan

243 Xie Ligan
The family came to cause trouble.

After hearing this, before Kang De could say anything, Xiaoman tightened her grip on his hand.

Xie Guangjun's father was Xie Ligan. As a commoner, Kang De did not know much, but Xiaoman knew. Previously, she had heard from her father that the two companies were competitors. Moreover, recently, Kang De and Xie Guangjun fought. Xiaoman had done a lot of homework on this and asked about many situations.

He was a famous figure in the province and a successful entrepreneur.

After changing the era, he earned his first bucket of gold by trading. Then, he opened a factory and supplied goods to the inland and west. He earned money as easily as drinking water. In 1996, commodity houses appeared. Out of the instinct of the older generation to buy land, he bought real estate and houses everywhere. In the financial crisis of 2008, he gritted his teeth and endured it. Instead, he bought and merged many corporate venues. When the crisis ended and the land finances were introduced, earning money was simply easier than breathing.

His two sons had all been sent overseas to study. The eldest son studied finance, and the youngest son studied the Internet. When he returned, he gave them investments and provided connections to let them invest and work on their own with brilliant results.

However, the factor behind this success was not enough to tell outsiders if it was a person's struggle or the progress of history and the help of his family.

In any case, what he could confirm was that it was much simpler for the rich to earn money than the poor.

That was all the information Old Wang could obtain.

Xie Ligan's wealth history looked very inspirational, but in the eyes of people with ulterior motives, there was extremely terrifying news behind this short 100 to 200-word history. Whether it was his personal ability and talent, or whether it came from information channels and special methods that were insufficient to be told to outsiders, it would definitely not be known by outsiders.

The only thing he could be sure of was that such a big shot who had farmed deeply in his own province and stood for 40 years would definitely accumulate despairing wealth, power, energy, relationships, various unknown methods, and even retreat paths in his decades of life.

The local people had a huge influence and controlled a huge group. They provided countless jobs and the investment relationship was extremely complicated. Under the water, it was unknown how many invisible networks were entangled.

Such a person was very, very terrifying.

Even a rich second-generation heir like Xiaoman felt very terrified.

However, this was not the most terrifying thing.

The most terrifying thing was that such a business tycoon with an extremely terrifying background, wealth, power, and methods might have his entire family die mysteriously tonight.

…As long as the childhood sweetheart beside her who had grown up with her was willing to do it. She almost knew him like the back of her hand, and even knew when he had learned to masturbate…

Therefore, when she heard that Xie Guangjun's family had come to cause trouble, her heart skipped a beat.

This was because she was not sure what Kang De wanted to do.

Especially when he realized that the threat still existed.

She subconsciously looked up at Kang De's side profile.

How could a person who was doing well in the other world deal with the small troubles in reality?

It was obvious.

However, at this moment, she saw Kang De turn around and look at her. Then he smiled.

“In that case, don't see them.”

Then, Kang De turned to look at the police officer with a disappointed and worried expression, “I heard that Xie Guangjun's family is very rich. Will they find trouble with me?”

The police uncle said seriously, “Don't worry, definitely not. Our public investigation law still needs face.”

Kang De said softly, “I hope so.”

The two of them left through the stairs with him and vaguely heard a commotion in the corridor. Dissuasive voices and the cries of a woman were sharp and miserable, like a female ghost.

The three of them did not speak.

When he went downstairs and left through a small door, the police officer turned around and asked, “Shall I drive you?”

Xiaoman replied, “There's no need. My father brought me here. Let's wait in the car.”

The other party replied, “Alright.”

After sending him to the parking lot, Uncle Wang's Bentley was parked there. Xiaoman took out the key from her bag. At this moment, Kang De's expression changed slightly.

Then, the miserable scream approached. A woman staggered over, followed by a few police officers and irrelevant people. They could not stop her.

“It's him, right?! It's him!”

The woman saw Wang Xiaoman at a glance, then all her attention was fixed on Kang De. She even broke her high heels from running, so she rushed over barefoot. Her hair was disheveled as she cried and cursed in a sharp voice, “Isn't he suspicious?! Why did you let him go?! My son is so obedient…”

The middle-aged police officer immediately went forward and revealed a sharp expression that was completely different from when he spoke to Kang De. He said sternly, “Stop! This is the first time I'm warning you! This is the police station. We guarantee the privacy and personal safety of the witnesses and victims according to the law! Please cooperate with the police and leave immediately! You're not allowed to make noise and cause trouble!”

The woman was stopped by the police. As she cried and cursed, she attacked.

Although the police uncle shouted fiercely, it was not easy to fight back for the time being under all kinds of considerations. He only blocked left and right. At that time, he was scratched a few times and blood marks appeared.

He still shouted, “This is my second warning…”

Kang De saw the bloody marks. The smell of the soup dumpling in his mouth had yet to dissipate, so he spat on the ground, “F*ck…”

Then, he was about to step forward, but his right hand tightened and he was pulled back by Old Wang. “Hey!”

“What's wrong…” Kang De looked at his childhood sweetheart who had a frightened expression. He was first stunned, then he did not know whether to laugh or cry. He only wanted to slap that woman twice, not crush her head. He was not crazy.

How could Xiaoman be willing to agree? She hugged Kang De's arm forcefully like a puppy hugging a thigh. Her expression was stubborn and coquettish—in short, he was not allowed to go.

When Kang De saw this expression, he sighed. Forget it, forget it. Even if this woman rushed to him and scolded him for hitting him, he would restrain himself. He would definitely not kill her. Maybe just a punch in the stomach.

The police uncle was trying his best to stop him. As he stopped him, he turned around and shouted, “Hurry up and get into the car!”

Xiaoman was about to open the door when she heard Kang De shout, “I reject! How can a victim hide from the family of a criminal in the police station?!”

D*mn.

The police officer looked like he was about to roar at the sky.

When he shouted the third warning, another group of people rushed over from the entrance of the parking lot. The leader had gray hair, but he walked quickly and shouted, “Stop! Stop!”

The police were unmoved, but the young men who had followed the woman seemed to have been frozen. Previously, they had pretended to stop the woman, but they were actually interfering with the police.

Even the almost crazy woman stopped and turned to look at the man. She cried, “That's your son! You ignored him before, but you don't care now? You…”

Before he could finish speaking, the man rushed forward and slapped him.

“Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?!”

With a crisp bang, even Kang De and Wang Xiaoman in the distance heard it clearly. They immediately slapped the woman to the ground. This slap clearly used enough strength, because the woman who was full of combat strength and almost crazy earlier fell to the ground. She covered her face and did not move. She was completely stunned.

“Tsk, impressive.”

Kang De lowered his voice and said, “I didn't even plan to be so ruthless.”

After the man slapped them, he did not stop. He arrived in front of the young people and stretched out his foot to kick them. It struck their chests and they fell to the ground one after another. He roared, “I told you to watch over her. What are you doing?! You don't want to work anymore, right?!”

The middle-aged police officer stopped him and said, “Mr. Xie, please stop.”

This man was Xie Ligan.

It was similar to the photo, but it was a little haggard.

He instructed coldly, “Take her to the hospital. If she continues to cause trouble, inject the tranquilizer.”

Those people barely got up and helped the woman up.

Xie Guangjun's mother finally returned to her senses. Under her husband's anger, she was slapped again. She finally lost her previous unreasonable aura, but she was still crying, cursing, and struggling.

Exquisite and soft hair, extremely well-maintained skin, expensive clothes, and luxurious leather bags. Her bright appearance could not hide a pitiful soul. She was only an ordinary woman.

Xie Ligan apologized to the middle-aged police officer, “Captain Liu, I sincerely apologize to you. She's attacking the police and should be dealt with according to the relevant laws and regulations, but I have no choice but to be thick-skinned and ask for your forgiveness. After all, as a mother, she's suffered a heavy blow. Even if she has to be detained, please let her recover for a while.”

In front of the famous entrepreneurs and evergreens in the business world in this province, even this powerful figure in the city bureau could not help but slow down his tone, but he was still angry, “Who in the police has never suffered such grievances? I'm used to it.”

The other party apologized seriously again and looked at Kang De and Xiaoman not far away.

“Can I speak to him?”

Unlike ordinary citizens, as the leader of the city bureau, Captain Liu knew more about the inside story and truth of society. He had more understanding of the ethics and energy of the rich. He subconsciously wanted to reject, but then he heard Kang De shout, “Sure!”

D*mn.

What a hothead.

Although he said this, he could roughly understand Kang De's mood at this moment. He had only had some argument with a rich second-generation heir and had been sneaked into the house in the middle of the night. If he had not happened to return to his hometown, what would have happened would have been simply unimaginable? However, that was fine. The rich second-generation heir had been inexplicably killed, and he had actually been summoned to the police station to cooperate with the investigation and had to be cursed and mocked as a murderer by the other party's family. Who could endure this?

Moreover, it was in front of his girlfriend.

Moreover, his girlfriend's rich father was also here.

How could he escape in panic and dodge timidly?

He could not help but make way and let Xie Ligan come to Kang De.

Kang De looked at this expert with a name on Baidu. The other party was also looking at him.

The legendary entrepreneur suddenly bowed deeply.

He said in a low voice, “I didn't teach my son well. I'm sorry, you've been shocked.”

Kang De nodded and said, “Fortunately, I felt much better when I heard that he was seriously injured and was still being saved.”

Old Wang helplessly turned her head to the side.

Xie Ligan's face facing the ground suddenly stiffened. He had also experienced his youngest son's feelings. In modern society, especially in a civilized country like China, people like Kang De were really strange.

There were people with bad mouths everywhere, but there were really not many people who dared to speak like this in front of a super awesome rich person whose son was seriously injured and unconscious. Even if he was saved, he was basically crippled.

Xie Ligan slowly straightened up, still maintaining his politeness.

After all, he had worked hard for 30 to 40 years and interacted with countless people. He still had this shrewdness.

He said, “After the public prosecution law is officially issued, we'll actively compensate and take responsibility.”

Kang De raised his eyebrows and said, “Isn't this natural?”

“…”

“…”

“…That's true.” Xie Ligan was silent for a few breaths before continuing, “However, other than that, as his father, I have to apologize to you. In addition, I also apologize to you on behalf of my wife. She must have said something she shouldn't have. Please understand her mood. Ever since she found out, her tears have not stopped. After all, she's my mother.”

“Oh.” Kang De nodded. “I don't understand.”

Xie Ligan's eyes revealed surprise. Then, a trace of anger could not be hidden in the end.

Kang De said indifferently, “Why? Are you very surprised? You're a rich person, a big shot. You're high and mighty. The money you earn in a day might be equivalent to someone else's life. A noble person like you condescends and apologizes to a small figure like me. Should I be grateful? Should I kneel and shout in joy?”

Xie Ligan shook his head and said, “There's no such thing.”

Kang De asked, “Then I don't understand. Is there a problem?”

Xie Ligan said, “She's his mother after all.”

“So she can do whatever she wants? She just made the same mistake as your son. This is the reason why I had a conflict with him. He prides himself on being a noble person and acts according to his own thoughts. He doesn't consider the feelings of others and thinks that they want to revolve around him. I'm not used to his bad habit, so he found someone to deal with me. He always felt that he was right and self-righteous. When something happens, he won't reflect on his reasons and only blame others, just like what your wife just did.”

“With a mother like this, it's not surprising that her son's morals are rotten. She was born without raising him and allowed him to become scum who harmed others and herself. Up until now, even if she cries day and night, she has reaped what she sowed. Why should I understand and pity her? If you ask why, there's only one reason.”

“Because I'm also a son. I have a mother too.”

Kang De said coldly, “She taught me to be an upright and kind person. Since I was young, I've been strict and loving and did not dare to relax for a moment. I've always been careful with my words and actions, honest and polite, and I definitely won't do anything evil. A son raised by such a mother shouldn't be bullied by a second-generation heir who's corrupt and willful. If I was at home last night, the person crying today might have been my mother. Compared to letting her cry, it's better for your wife to cry.”

“Therefore, I'm extremely satisfied with today's outcome and very gratified.”

Xie Ligan narrowed his eyes.

It had been a long time since anyone dared to speak to him like this.

Even a provincial official had to be polite and courteous to him.

He now understood why his son wanted to mess with the other party.

However, he was still a big shot in the industry and a powerful person of his generation. He would definitely not show his anger on such an occasion, because this was meaningless and would attract trouble.

Things were already troublesome enough.

His expression did not change as he said, “It seems that now is not a good time to talk. I can understand your current mood. Anyone who encounters such a thing will definitely be angry and hostile, but please rest well. After all, Xie Guangjun has already been punished… I'll take my leave first.”

Then, Xie Ligan bowed again and turned to leave.

Kang De looked at his back and wanted to say something, but Xiaoman had already jumped up and covered his mouth. She opened the car door and stuffed him into it. “Get in right now!”

“…Don't say that.”

As Kang De spoke, he was pushed into the car.

After he entered, he pressed his hand on the cushion and spread his mental strength, gradually spreading it to the entire car. He did not discover any strange and abrupt things—it was better to be careful.

Xiaoman sat down and rolled her eyes, “Why didn't I realize that you're so eloquent before? If you're so powerful, why didn't you register for the school debate team? D*mn, I wanted to crawl into the ground when I heard that just now.”

Kang De was puzzled, “Does it not vent your anger?”

“It's not a problem of venting my anger, but an awkward question! Big Brother, you're facing him. I'm standing at the side and trembling from the aftershock of your battle. I'm a small figure. I don't dare to say anything fair or shout 666. What do you want me to do?”

At this point, Xiaoman sighed helplessly, “Is this how you speak and do things over there?”

Kang De thought for a moment, “…It's only like this when facing bad guys and stupid people.”

“Then why did you talk to Xie Ligan like this? You didn't give him any face at all…” Xiaoman hesitated for a moment and bit her lip before finally asking.

“…You plan to not even let go of Xie Guangjun's family?”

Kang De looked at Xiaoman. There was worry and even a little unfamiliarity and fear in his childhood sweetheart's eyes.

He shook his head, took out his phone, and took out a memory card from his inner pocket. He inserted it and connected it to the earpiece line, letting Xiaoman put it on.

Then, he played a video.

It was what had happened at home last night.

When Kang De arrived in the other world, he had the habit of recording. Especially when he summoned the quality weapon in Valentine's War, he forgot to turn on the recording and retrieve the animation. It was a huge regret. Therefore, he learned his lesson and consolidated his consciousness in this aspect. At that time, he immediately turned on the recording.

Xiaoman looked at it and revealed a shocked and furious expression.

“If not for what they said, I probably wouldn't have killed them last night. However, this is too much… You know that killing intent arises when one has a sharp weapon in their heart, let alone in such a situation. I couldn't help it.”

Kang De said softly, “Don't worry, I didn't become a homicidal maniac who treats human lives as grass.”

Xiaoman did not speak, but her eyes softened. She seemed to have taken off a burden. She asked again, “Then Xie Guangjun's family…”

“Xie Ligan only did not teach his son well. I don't have the habit of implicating my entire family, let alone playing decisive on Earth… However, I won't foolishly sit and wait for the other party to attack first. It's enough for Xie Guangjun's matter to happen once, so I still have to do something. After all, my mother is coming back.”

Kang De narrowed his eyes and said faintly, “After all, I can't place my hopes on others' morals, right? I'm only a little disappointed. I thought Earth would be different.”
