Fuming with anger, Lu Yunbin returned to the Lu family's residence. Just as he was about to ask one of the Lu family's Phase-5 Hunters for help, one of the bodyguards received a call and informed him.
"Young Master Lu, Master is looking for you."
"Got it."
Lu Yunbin responded and walked in a direction. After passing through a long corridor, he entered a retro room and saw a man with a thin face and a long beard. This man was his father, Lu Zhongqing.
"Dad, why are you looking for me?"
Lu Yunbin asked, puzzled.
Under normal circumstances, his father should be at the company and not at home. He had some doubts as to why his father was not at the company today and why he was looking for him.
"Recently, some external forces have moved into the base city. One of them is called Tang Wei. Do not provoke him."
"You usually rely on the power of the Lu family to bully some rich businessmen and Awakened family members. But this person, you must not provoke him."
After saying this, Lu Zhongqing did not receive a reply. He raised his head and looked at Lu Yunbin suspiciously, but what he saw was a face full of shock and panic.
His heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
"You didn't provoke him already, did you?"
Hearing his question, Lu Yunbin's face became even more flustered, and his uneasiness was written all over his face.
"Dad, why can't I provoke him?"
"I don't know either. This was a sudden order from your grandfather, and I don't know the reason."
Lu Zhongqing frowned.
"Grandfather personally gave the order?!"
Lu Yunbin's heart sank. His grandfather was naturally the pillar of the Lu family, the Morning Star powerhouse Lu Guangyao.
To be able to make a Morning Star powerhouse give an order not to provoke him, one could imagine how extraordinary Tang Wei's identity was.
He remembered that the last time he received such an order was when a Morning Star powerhouse visited.
Seeing the change in Lu Yunbin's expression, Lu Zhongqing was even more certain of his guess. He looked at Lu Yunbin with a sharp gaze and asked in a deep voice.
"Have you already provoked him?"
"Yes …"
Under Lu Zhongqing's gaze, cold sweat slid down Lu Yunbin's forehead, and he said coldly.
"You son of a bitch!"
Lu Yunbin stood up abruptly. He was so angry that his face was ashen. He slammed the coffee table next to him into pieces.
"Speak, how did you provoke him?"
Lu Yunbin didn't dare to hide anything, nor did he dare to exaggerate. He recounted the entire process in detail. After he finished, he looked at Lu Zhongqing nervously.
"Dad, although I did provoke this person, he didn't suffer any losses. Instead, I was the one who suffered losses. This matter shouldn't be considered serious, right?"
"It's fine if you're usually arrogant and despotic, but you don't have any judgment at all. You just had to provoke someone that even your grandfather doesn't want to provoke."
Lu Zhongqing was so angry that he wanted to slap him to death. But after all, he was his own son. He suppressed his anger and took out the phone.
"I'll contact your grandfather now and ask for his opinion before I deal with you."
Soon, the call was connected and Lu Guangyao's voice came out of the phone.
"Hey, Zhong Qing."
Judging from the voice, Lu Guangyao was in a good mood.
That was the truth. With the demon-humans running rampant, it was definitely a good thing for Liuzhou base city to have another Morning Star powerhouse, so he was in a good mood.
"Dad, Yunbin has already provoked the person you said we shouldn't provoke."
Lu Zhongqing braced himself and said.
"What did you say?
Yunbin has already provoked him? "
Lu Guangyao's furious voice came from the other end of the phone. His good mood was completely gone.
If Liuzhou base city lost a strong ally because of this matter, and a conflict arose because of it, it would be an extremely serious matter for Liuzhou base city.
"Go apologize. Bring Yunbin to apologize. If he doesn't forgive him, I'll pretend I don't have a grandson."
Lu Yunbin couldn't help but hear the roar even though they were separated by a few meters. His face turned pale without a trace of blood.
Although he was naughty and mischievous, his grandfather still doted on him. He actually said something like severing the relationship between grandfather and grandson. One could imagine how angry his grandfather was and how serious this matter was.
Beep, beep, beep!
Along with the busy tone, the other end had already hung up. Lu Zhongqing looked at Lu Yunbin and said.
"Did you hear your grandfather's words?"
"Yes."
The pale Lu Yunbin nodded.
"Go apologize later. You must be sincere. Otherwise, I'm afraid your grandfather will really sever the relationship between grandfather and grandson."
Lu Zhongqing said in a deep voice. He could tell that although Lu Guangyao's words were filled with anger, they were also somewhat serious.
If he couldn't get forgiveness, severing the relationship between grandfather and grandson and kicking Lu Yunbin out was not impossible.
More than two hours later, Lu Yunbin once again appeared in Fang Ping's villa. However, this time, he didn't have the arrogance from before. Instead, there was fear.
To be able to make his grandfather give the order not to provoke him, one could imagine that the other party's identity was not simple. He was destined to be someone he couldn't afford to provoke, but he had already provoked him.
"Sir Tang Wei, this brat has offended you before. I brought him here to apologize to you."
Lu Zhongqing glared at Lu Yunbin and said.
"Hurry up and apologize to Sir Tang Wei!"
"I'm sorry, Sir Tang Wei. I didn't know it was you, so I offended you."
Lu Yunbin hurriedly said.
He was really frightened. If the old man severed the relationship between grandfather and grandson and kicked him out, he would be completely finished.
"Sir Tang Wei, this is a gift prepared by the Lu family as an apology. Please accept it."
Lu Zhongqing handed over a document bag and said apologetically.
Although Fang Ping looked very young, he didn't dare to underestimate him. From Lu Guangyao, he knew a lot of secrets about Morning Star powerhouses.
Once one became a Morning Star powerhouse, not only would their lifespan increase, some of them even had the means to maintain their youth forever. Even in death, they would still look young.
Perhaps the person in front of him was a young-looking Morning Star powerhouse. Only such a powerhouse could make his grandfather value him so much.
Because Zuo Gaofeng's identity couldn't be exposed, "Tang Wei" became the spokesperson on the surface. That was why Lu Guangyao said things like "Don't provoke Tang Wei".
"For the sake of Chief Lu, I'll accept your apology. There's no need for a gift."
Fang Ping waved his hand. He wasn't unforgiving, and just brushed this matter aside.
No matter what, the other party was still a member of a Morning Star family. He still had to give them some face. After all, he still had to stay in this base city for a long time. He couldn't have a bad relationship with the Lu family.
"This is our apology. Please accept it, Sir Tang Wei."
Lu Zhongqing didn't take back the document bag, but insisted.
Seeing the other party like this, Fang Ping glanced at Jin Li. Jin Li understood and passed the document bag to Fang Ping. Fang Ping opened the document bag and couldn't help but be surprised.
"This is too valuable. I can't accept it!"
This was a production base transfer agreement. The other party was transferring a production base under the Lu family's name to him.
Due to the different types of crops and the size of the production base, the market value of the production base was different. Even the cheapest production base was worth at least a few hundred million.
It was just an apology gift, yet he had taken out such a valuable item. This kind of extravagance really shocked him.
"This is also the old man's wish. Please accept it, Sir Tang Wei!"
Lu Zhongqing said with some pain in his heart.
Giving away the production base was indeed the old man's idea. Not long after he hung up the phone, he called again and asked him to give him one of the Lu family's production bases as an apology.
Although he was heartbroken, this was the old man's order. He naturally didn't dare to refuse.
"It's my first time in Liuzhou base city, and I do need to buy a property. I won't stand on ceremony then. Please help me thank Chief Lu."
Seeing the other party insist, Fang Ping didn't refuse and accepted the transfer agreement.
Of course, this production base wasn't that easy to take. The Lu family gave this production base to him partly as an apology, and partly because they were afraid that he wouldn't be willing to help.
Now that there were interests involved, if Liuzhou base city was attacked, he had to help even if he didn't want to. After all, if Liuzhou base city was destroyed, the production base under his name would naturally become useless.
"I will pass on the message for Sir Tang Wei."
Seeing that Fang Ping accepted the transfer agreement, Lu Zhongqing let out a sigh of relief. Since he was willing to apologize, it meant that Fang Ping had accepted the apology.
He couldn't help but look at Lu Yunbin next to him. He was furious. Because of this bastard, the Lu family was forced to give away a precious production base. This price was not ordinary.
