C18 The Warning of the Richest Man in the World!

Wang Kai shook his head in resignation. "I called my dad, but it was the old man who picked up. He said that the Wang family must not get involved in today's affairs!"

"What?!" Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing Wang Kai's revelation.

It was unexpected that the patriarch of the Wang family himself had issued the decree.

Zhao Gaang's face drained of color, his despair palpable. He realized there was no hope for him now.

With the Wang family elder personally intervening, there was no one left to save him.

Witnessing Zhao Gaang's downfall, officials promptly escorted him and his daughter away.

The crowd was left in a state of bewilderment.

Their eyes turned to Faang Yu, who sat on the sofa exuding an air of ease and composure, as if all that transpired was perfectly ordinary.

Even Su Ningshang was astounded.

She couldn't fathom how, in just half an hour, Zhao Gaang, a billionaire, could be ruined.

And Zhao Linlin, her constant adversary, was just taken away.

Considering it was a hit-and-run resulting in a fatality, Zhao Linlin wouldn't see freedom for at least seven or eight years.

As for Zhao Gaang, his charges were even more severe.

Now, everyone stared at Faang Yu, their faces etched with shock and inner turmoil, wondering if Faang Yu had a hand in the downfall of Zhao Gaang and his daughter.

A flicker of surprise and wariness crossed Wang Kai's eyes.

"Well played, kid. I underestimated you, having ties with Sunn Wanfu. You got lucky today; I'll give you that.

But next time, if you end up in my grasp, it won't be so easy to walk away!" Wang Kai said icily.

He then turned and left, too embarrassed to linger.

Faang Yu, however, remained indifferent, not sparing Wang Kai a single glance.

To Faang Yu, Wang Kai was nothing more than a jumping jack, unworthy of his concern.

"Sunn Wanfu!" The name echoed through the room, leaving everyone in awe.

They had not anticipated that Faang Yu would have connections with Sunn Wanfu.

This made sense now. Sunn Wanfu was reputed to be the wealthiest man in Yundian Province, boasting assets in the hundreds of billions.

The Zhao family, while respectable in Diannan City, paled in comparison to Sunn Wanfu.

For him, dealing with Zhao Gaang would be a trivial matter.

Su Ningshang realized that Sunn Wanfu was behind it all, which explained why her grandfather wasn't the least bit concerned for Faang Yu's safety.

At that moment, Faang Yu addressed the gathered crowd with a calm demeanor, "Ladies and gentlemen, I've won the wager, and I trust you'll honor your commitments.

Please, let's not cause any trouble for Su Ningshang's company's upcoming listing."

"Absolutely, Young Master Faang, rest assured. We see no reason to trouble Director Su," they replied.

Now that everyone was aware of Faang Yu's connection to Sunn Wanfu, no one would dare to inconvenience Su Ningshang.

Yet, Su Ningshang couldn't help but feel irked by Faang Yu's nonchalant attitude.

She seethed internally, "He's nothing but a rural nobody who just happened to luck into an acquaintance with a bigwig like Sunn Wanfu, and now he's acting all high and mighty!"

Despite her irritation, she had to admit that Faang Yu had indeed helped her out of a bind, and for that, she was thankful.

With a frosty tone, Su Ningshang confronted Faang Yu, "Even if you have some connection to Sunn Wanfu, you shouldn't rely on him for every little thing.

Remember, goodwill can wear thin. There will come a day when he'll turn down your requests..."

"Turn me down? He wouldn't dare..." Faang Yu replied, shaking his head with a quiet confidence.

Su Ningshang was almost amused by his audacity. Sunn Wanfu was the top tycoon in Yundian Province, yet Faang Yu spoke as if he were merely an underling.

She couldn't fathom where Faang Yu's brazen confidence stemmed from.

Meanwhile, in the Wang family's estate in Diannan City, Sunn Wanfu sat in a pavilion, facing an elderly, dignified man dressed in a traditional Zhongshan suit.

The elderly gentleman was none other than Wang Bo, the esteemed patriarch of the Wang family.

After receiving a call from Faang Yu, Sunn Wanfu had immediately set out to gather information about the day's events.

It became clear to Sunn Wanfu that there had been a clash between Wang Kai and Faang Yu.

Wang Bo, who had been a benefactor to a younger Sunn Wanfu, hastened to the Sunn residence, urging them to steer clear of Faang Yu.

This explained why, during Wang Kai's recent phone call, Wang Bo had instructed him not to get involved with Zhao Gaang's affairs.

Wang Bo addressed Sunn Wanfu, "CEO Sun, just who is this Faang Yu that you hold in such high regard, prompting you to seek me out personally?"

With a sense of resignation, Sunn Wanfu replied, "Elder Wang, I'm not at liberty to disclose Faang Yu's identity. It's a difficult position for me, but my advice remains—do not provoke Faang Yu.

Otherwise, if he is provoked, it could spell disaster for the Wang family."

Having said his piece, Sunn Wanfu rose to his feet. "Elder Wang, you surely have your own considerations. I won't impose any further. Please, take your rest..."

With that, Sunn Wanfu took his leave of the Wang household.

Once Sunn Wanfu had departed, a sneer of contempt flickered across the old master's face. "The Wang family can't be provoked? Ridiculous! We may not be wealthy enough to rival nations or wield boundless power.

But my father was a decorated war hero in the heat of summer. Even the power brokers of the capital would weigh their options carefully before crossing the Wang family. To think that we would fear a mere youth in his twenties is laughable!

Today, I'll let it pass. But should he ever dare to trample over the Wang family again, he'll find no mercy from me!"

As swiftly as a wink, a new day dawned, and Faang Yu accompanied Su Ningshang to the company, just as he had the day before.

Yet now, the company's employees regarded Faang Yu with a newfound respect, their earlier disdain replaced by a measure of admiration.

After all, Faang Yu was the one who had managed to make Sunn Haonan, the young master of the Sunn family, kneel just yesterday. Naturally, no one dared to underestimate him.

Just then, Su Ningshang rushed out of the office, her face etched with distress.

"Faang Yu, come with me—there's been an incident with my mother!"

Without further inquiry, Faang Yu immediately followed Su Ningshang, leaving the company behind.
