832 Arrogance Turned Into Respect
Chu Yunfan could tell that Yuyan was using him as a shield. Although it didn’t matter to him, he wasn’t comfortable with being used.
“I’m Qin Yuyan, and my elder is Vice President Qin Li,” Qin Yuyan said.
Chu Yunfan suddenly realized that she was a descendant of a famous family. In the Federation, the vice presidents were not as famous because of the shadow that the president cast.
However, this didn’t mean that vice presidents weren’t capable. In fact, these vice presidents were world-famous top experts back in the day and had also made great contributions to the Federation.
Only then would they be able to become the vice president of the Federation.
“So you’re from a famous family. But using me as a shield isn’t right. What if I wasn’t his match? Such heartlessness,” Chu Yunfan said.
“Of course, most people are no match for Li Xuanbing, but I believe that you’re different, Chu Yunfan. Even ten Li Xuanbings combined would not be able to stand up against you.”
Qin Yuyan smiled sweetly. She had plainly stated his identity.
Chu Yunfan looked at Qin Yuyan in surprise. After all, his social circle was clearly different from those of the rich and powerful. Many people might have heard of him, but that was it. Heard. Not many knew what he looked like.
The fact that no one had recognized him on his way here was proof.
He had heard of Vice President Qin before, but he couldn’t remember what he looked like because he didn’t pay attention to such news.
“Do we know each other?” Chu Yunfan asked.
“I don’t think so. We’re actually from the same university. I attend Federation University, but I’m from the philology department. You’re a famous person in our university, Senior Chu, so it’s not all that strange for me to know you,” Qin Yuyan said.
“I wasn’t sure earlier. After all, I have not seen you in a few years. You’ve changed a lot and I don’t dare to address you directly, Senior Chu. But now, I’m sure it’s you. With your strength, Li Xuanbing would be seeking his own death by finding trouble with you.
“You really are as powerful as the rumors make you out to be, Senior Chu. Meeting you in person is so much more awe-inspiring than just hearing your name.”
“I see.” Chu Yunfan nodded.
In the distance, Li Xuanbing stared as Chu Yunfan and Qin Yuyan talked and laughed away. His eyes burned with a fierce light. He said to the people around him, “Find out who this kid is!”
“It was an emergency, Senior Chu. Please don’t mind it,” Qin Yuyan said playfully. “But Senior Chu, what’s your relationship with Marshal Yang?”
“Marshal Yang is my grandfather,” Chu Yunfan said.
A strange look flashed through Qin Yuyan’s eyes. “I didn’t expect you to be from such a famous family, Senior Chu.”
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door which was followed by a flurry of footsteps.
Everyone watched as a middle-aged man in military uniform strode in, and behind him was Wang Yuan, whom Chu Yunfan has taught a lesson earlier.
A strange look flashed through Chu Yunfan’s eyes. Wang Juan had managed to get rid of the energy force he left behind so quickly?
Of course, Chu Yunfan hadn’t used his full strength. It was meant to be a small punishment.
Looking at the situation, everyone could tell that the person who had arrived was not friendly. Wang Yuan spotted Chu Yunfan and cried out, “Dad, that’s him!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to look. The person Wang Yuan was referring to was clearly Chu Yunfan, who had just been in the limelight.
“That’s Lieutenant General Wang? This is going to be a show good. Lieutenant General Wang won’t let that brat off for being so arrogant,” a young man standing beside Li Xuanbing said.
Li Xuanbing endured the pain and accepted the treatment from the attendant next to him. At the same time, he stared at Chu Yunfan with a sharp glint in his eyes.
Chu Yunfan had scared him, so he didn’t dare to look for trouble for now. He just couldn’t wait for Chu Yunfan to land himself in hot water. He knew that Lieutenant General Wang was a hot-tempered person. Many soldiers had hot tempers, but he was one of the most famous among them.
Although he was only a lieutenant general, he had a lot of power.
If Lieutenant General Wang wanted to find trouble with Chu Yunfan, Li Xuanbing wasn’t inclined to believe that Chu Yunfan would be able to escape. After all, to become a general of the Federation, one’s cultivation level had to be top-notch.
Only an expert of at least the seventh Innate Stage or above could become a general of the Federation.
However, just when everyone thought that Chu Yunfan was going to be in trouble, they saw Lieutenant General Wang’s expression change the moment he saw Chu Yunfan.
As if he had thought of something, his originally rough square face suddenly turned pale. Then, he turned around and gave Wang Yuan a big slap.
Smack!
A clear and loud slap resounded. Wang Yuan was dumbfounded. He covered his face in disbelief. He had almost been sent flying. Lieutenant General Wang was ruthless.
Everyone was also completely dumbfounded. They didn’t know why Lieutenant General Wang had suddenly slapped his own son. After all, everyone saw that he was originally here to back up his son.
“It’s you, Mr. Chu. I’m so sorry for earlier. I heard that my son offended you, so I’ve brought him here to apologize to you.” Lieutenant General Wang squeezed out a flattering smile, but his eyes were filled with fear.
Then, he turned to the dumbfounded Wang Yuan and said, “You stupid child. Get over here and kneel to Mr. Chu and apologize!”
“What’s going on? Something’s not right with this scene!”
“D*mn. I must be looking at a fake Lieutenant General Wang. Didn’t they say that he has a bad temper? But now he’s practically licking that kid’s shoes!”
“Who is that guy?”
Some came back to their senses pretty quickly. It was true that Lieutenant General Wang had a fiery temper. He had strode in here with an aggressive aura earlier and it was obvious that he did not intend to let this matter rest. The only thing that could make him change his attitude in such a short time was this young man.
Li Xuanbing was also a little dumbfounded. He had hoped that Lieutenant General Wang would teach Chu Yunfan a lesson, but who knew that he would be so spineless? His son was bullied, yet he bent the knee to Chu Yunfan.
“What background does this guy have?”
Qin Yuyan gazed at Chu Yunfan in surprise. She knew of Lieutenant General Wang. This man had always acted brazenly because of the countless contributions he had made. Even if Chu Yunfan was Marshal Yang’s grandson, he shouldn’t be scared to this extent.
In fact, if Lieutenant General Wang was really afraid, he wouldn’t have made such a big fuss.
Qin Yuyan was curious about what other secrets Chu Yunfan was hiding that would scare Lieutenant General Wang to this extent.
Chu Yunfan also looked at the man in surprise. He was a little crestfallen. Who said that soldiers wouldn’t beat around the bush? He didn’t expect Lieutenant General Wang to change his attitude so quickly.
The man was clearly here to get back at Chu Yunfan, but he turned around and said he was here to apologize.
No one could be more thick-skinned than this man.
Wang Yuan was dumbfounded, but he didn’t dare to disobey his father’s words, so he quickly knelt in front of Chu Yunfan.
“My son has eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai and offended you, Mr. Chu. I’ve brought him here to apologize to you,” General Wang quickly explained with a smile on his face. However, his back was completely drenched in sweat.
The moment he saw Chu Yunfan, he instantly recalled who Chu Yunfan was, and he was suddenly in a state of shock. According to the information they had received, wasn’t Chu Yunfan already dead?
The first time he heard of Chu Yunfan was when Chu Yunfan attacked the Jiangs. During that battle, everyone was shocked. No one in the huge Jiang family could do anything to him.
And now, the Chu Yunfan who had disappeared for two years had reappeared. This time, it was even more shocking. Facing the inescapable net set up by the Jiang, Huang, and Wei families, this person didn’t just come out unscathed. He had slaughtered more than half of the experts and then retreated in one piece. In the end, he even forced the Jiangs to use a nuclear bomb.
After the Jiangs used the nuclear bomb, the Chus immediately launched their own nuclear bomb in retaliation. The two families had started a nuclear war, which had shocked all the higher-ups of the Federation.
That was when Chu Yunfan truly entered the hearts of these higher-ups.
It was because Lieutenant General Wang knew what Chu Yunfan had done that he immediately adjusted his attitude and didn’t dare to act arrogantly. He was a general of the Federation, a seventh Innate Stage expert, and was very arrogant.
But in the past few years, the number of peak Innate Stage experts who died at Chu Yunfan’s hands could be counted on two hands. And among those experts whom Chu Yunfan had killed were even marshals and generals of the Federation.
Chu Yunfan could easily kill him, so he didn’t dare to be presumptuous in front of Chu Yunfan.
However, Lieutenant General Wang cast it aside after reading the information. After all, he had determined that Chu Yunfan was dead. Since he was dead, there was naturally no value in studying him.
Who knew that the young master who was thought to be dead would appear in front of him?
Although a few years had passed and Chu Yunfan’s image and temperament had changed a little, Lieutenant General Wang still recognized him.
It was as if he was facing a wild beast that could tear him apart at any moment.
“In that case, I won’t say anything more. Let him kneel for an hour and I’ll let this matter go.”
Chu Yunfan stood up. If the other party was tactful, he would let him go. He saw Adjutant Li walking over from the distance, and he went to greet him.
Seeing Chu Yunfan and Adjutant Li leave, Lieutenant General Wang felt relief wash over him. It was as if a great pressure had been lifted off of him. His back was completely drenched as if he had just walked through the gates of Hell.
