Chapter 277: Can't Help But Bow Down
Sun Jianwei glanced at Sun Hanren, and he snorted,"Cursed! And cursed very nastily, ridiculing our Sun Family, saying how we are nothing in your eyes, and even called our Family Head a big idiot, claiming you, Mr. Han Ren, are not even fit to tie his shoelaces..."
Although Sun Jianwei knew he was lying, he had no choice but to do so, because he realized that he had to take a chance now. If Sun Hanren did not stand by him, he would be completely defeated in today's incident.
When Xu Hao heard Sun Jianwei still insisting on his version of events, he couldn't help but say, "Sun Jianwei, don't you find it ludicrous? Are you planning to treat Sun Hanren as a fool to be toyed with?"
Sun Hanren also sneered, "Sun Jianwei, don't think that just because you're a member of the Sun family, I would choose to believe you, that's impossible. First of all, you're just someone from a collateral branch of the Sun Family, I'm not familiar with you, and secondly, Young Master Xu has absolutely no reason to insult our Sun Family, because we have no conflicts of interest with him, and even if we did, our Sun Family would choose to step back!"
Sun Jianwei was somewhat shocked to hear Sun Hanren's words. According to Sun Hanren, did the Sun Family have to bow their heads in the face of Xu Hao?
Why would that be?
This is the Sun Family after all!
Suddenly, Xu Hao took out his phone and played the recording.
When Sun Hanren fully heard the words that Xu Hao said, he instantly glared at Sun Jianwei indignantly and said angrily, "Our Sun Family has an extremely close relationship with Young Master Xu, yet you attempt to frame and trap Young Master Xu, what are your intentions?!"
At that moment, Sun Jianwei was scared and sweating profusely. He had not anticipated that Xu Hao was recording with his phone, which made all his scheming fall through. Faced with incontrovertible evidence, he had no choice but to beg for mercy, "Mr. Han Ren, just now I had a conflict with Young Master Xu for my own selfish desires and in desperation, I had no choice but to utter those most disrespectful words. Please forgive me, I definitely won't dare to do it again!"
"Kneel down!" Sun Hanren said coldly.
With humiliation on his face, Sun Jianwei had no choice but to kneel straight down with a "thump".
"Damn it! I told you to kneel to Young Master Xu!"
Sun Hanren gave him a kick, and Sun Jianwei had to obediently kneel down to Xu Hao.
Sun Hanren said with a forced smile, "Young Master Xu, this kid doesn't recognize Mount Tai, please don't stoop to his level."
After all, this was a member of the Sun Family, and he had no choice but to step in. If it were anyone else, he would never risk falling out with Xu Hao to plead on their behalf.
Xiao Lan was already stunned by this point; she had heard about the mighty Sun Family.
Although she didn't have a concrete understanding, she knew they must be very powerful, and that a young master hailing from the Sun Family would certainly be arrogant and overbearing.
But now, he had no choice but to bow and scrape in front of Xu Hao.
She became even more curious. Who exactly was Xu Hao?
What kind of status did he have to make these people show him such deference?
Seeing Sun Jianwei kneeling on the ground before her, she felt reflective, thinking how fickle the world could be. Just a moment ago, he was full of arrogance and bluster, and now he had become a beggar for mercy.
At this time, Mao Jinxi walked up, looked at Xu Hao, and said with a faint smile, "Young Master Xu, long time no see."
Xu Hao glanced at him and said, "Mao Jinxi, the Third Young Master of Jiangnan's Richest Mao Family?"
Mao Jinxi said indifferently, "Indeed, it is I. Since the auction, I've missed Young Master Xu quite a bit!"
Xu Hao snorted with laughter, "To be missed by the son of Jiangnan's Richest Person, I'm indeed honored! But what does that have to do with you, in regards to the conflict between me and Sun Jianwei?"
Inside, Mao Jinxi sneered; indeed, it was none of his business, but he just couldn't stand Xu Hao's arrogance. He retorted, "Young Master Xu is a person of status, Sun Jianwei is just a nobody, why bother haggling with such a small fry? How about letting him off for my sake?"
At that moment, Sun Jianwei's heart swelled with emotion; even his own family's young master had decided to sacrifice the pawn to save the castle, yet Mao Jinxi, an outsider, came to his rescue, how great a kindness that was!
However, Xu Hao was not impressed by Mao Jinxi and said with a faint smile, "You want to save him? Fine, but it will cost money, one billion."
One billion, just like that!
Sun Jianwei was somewhat confused; when had his life become so valuable?
Sun Hanren was speechless, Manager Zhen and Xiao Lan were dumbstruck, but Mao Jinxi suddenly burst into laughter.
He laughed wildly for a long while before he said, "What's this? The wealthy Young Master Xu is short of cash?"
Xu Hao said calmly, "That's right, short of cash. I have a charity project that requires a donation of ten billion. I wonder if Mao Jinxi, the son of Jiangnan's Richest Person, would be charitable enough to donate one billion?"
Xu Hao thought of Xiao Lan's orphanage. He planned to expand the orphanage, which meant future expenses would be exceedingly large. Now it was best to take the opportunity to bilk Mao Jinxi, to get some money out of him to prevent him from showing off all the time.
