Chapter 48 has been abolished

  A bloody scene shocked the 16 high-level personnel of Changling Group, they retreated one by one with pale faces until they reached the wall and stopped in fear, looking at Wang Ke with terrified eyes.

  Li Ruoxi was also stunned, she didn't expect Wang Ke to cripple the family elders after defeating them, cutting off their tendons and rendering them useless. To know that cutting off one tendon in their legs and one in their arms would be equivalent to disabling them! From now on, even if they wanted to fight back, their combat strength would be reduced by tens of times.

  Wang Ke coldly threw the dagger in his hand next to Li Yue'e, looking at Li Yue'e who was full of fear and resentment. Wang Ke turned his head to look at the other four people, then sneered: "Originally, I only planned to protect my boss and not let her suffer injustice. But I didn't expect you guys to rely on your martial arts skills to attack me? Hmph, you overestimated yourselves. Even if you attacked me, I would still have the intention of severely beating you and throwing you out of this company. However, you shouldn't have had the intention to kill me, to cripple me! Heh heh, then I'll return blood with blood, tooth for tooth, and let you guys also taste the feeling of being crippled. From today on, you five are useless people, you're garbage without any value. You've lost your martial arts skills, and I'm afraid that in the future, your status and position in the Li family will drop several levels."

  He walked slowly to Li Ziqiang's side, and with a ruthless gaze, he kicked him in the stomach. As Li Ziqiang glared at him with venomous eyes, Wang Ke squatted beside him and slapped him hard on the face, causing his head to hit the ground and bleed profusely. Only then did he speak slowly: "You bunch of inhumane things, today you can force Li Ruoxi to marry someone else, using her as a tool for profit. But one day, your own daughters will probably be abandoned by the Li family too, used to make money for the Li family's benefit. Of course, I know you heartless things won't stop because the blood flowing through your veins is cold, devoid of any human emotions or familial feelings. I'm waiting for the Li family's revenge. If you dare retaliate against me, I'll make sure the rest of the Li family suffers a fate ten times more miserable than yours."

  After finishing the sentence, he slowly stood up and turned to look at the 16 company executives who were already pale with fright, saying coldly: "You heartless bastards, since you are willing to bear the name of betraying your benefactor, then I wish that every time you enjoy yourselves, you will remember today when you betrayed your poor superior, and every night you will lose sleep due to the condemnation of your conscience."

  Looking at them with disgust, Wang Ke rubbed his eyes, "I think that looking at you guys for a few more seconds will dirty my eyes, you heartless white-eyed wolves."

  He walked up to Li Ruoxi and the chill in his eyes slowly dissipated as he looked at her stunning face, still with tears glistening on it. Wang Ke stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears and said softly, "Don't blame me for being too harsh, if I were the one who got beaten down today, I think I would have suffered a more miserable fate than them. Don't worry, even if everyone betrays you, I will protect you from harm. Since this company has been taken back by your family, there's nothing worth staying for, let's go?"

  Li Ruoxi listened to Wang Ke's words, and tears rolled down her face again. At this moment, she knew that Wang Ke was her last reliance, the only one who could protect her. Her gaze swept past Wang Ke's side, scanning the five family elders who had met a miserable end. The heart that had just been warmed up a little bit chilled again, and she nodded without hesitation, turning to leave with Wang Ke together.

  Li Ziqiang and the five others endured the pain their bodies were subjected to, their faces twisted in fear and resentment as they watched Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi's departing figures. They wanted to crawl up and pounce on them, to slaughter that ruthless and merciless scoundrel, but they didn't dare. Not only because of the consequences they would face at this moment, but also because Wang Ke's ruthlessness made them not dare to make any moves even if they weren't crippled now.

  They had no doubt that if they thoroughly enraged Wang Qi, that ruthless man would kill them.

  Regret gnawed at their hearts like a venomous snake, filling their mouths with bitterness and leaving them ashen-faced.

  Sixteen high-level executives of the company looked at Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi leaving with a fearful expression, they were stirred up by Wang Ke's last words, rekindling the shame in their hearts.

  At over twenty years old, Jin Ke, the manager in charge of the home appliance department, slowly regained his composure. He took two steps forward before turning around to look at his colleagues beside him, taking a deep breath and saying bitterly: "I now feel ashamed, that person was right, I am a white-eyed wolf. If it weren't for Director Li, I would probably be nothing by now. I don't want to suffer the condemnation of my conscience for the rest of my life, I have already betrayed her once, I cannot do it again. So I announce, I resign."

  Jin Ke's words left the others stunned, a surge of impulse rising in the hearts of the other fifteen people. But as they reached their lips, the generous promises made by the five people on the ground earlier held them back, and they silently lowered their heads once again.

  "If you don't want to do it, then get out. Others also told us to get out." Li Ziqiang's face was already distorted, but it was unclear whether it was due to the pain of his physical injuries or anger and resentment.

  Xing Ke left directly, and others also went out of the hall one after another. Now that Li Ziqiang has fallen into a miserable situation, no one wants to provoke him.

  In the empty and spacious hall, only Li Ziqiang and Li Yuejiao were left. The heavy and depressing atmosphere lasted for several minutes before Li Ziqiang took a deep breath and said in a gloomy tone: "Today we admit defeat, what about the family? That damn bastard was right, we're finished now, I'm afraid we'll have to make way for others in important positions within the family. We can just wait for retirement!"

  The other four people sat down cross-legged with difficulty, and their true energy flowed slowly as they closed their eyes. After a while, Li Ziming slowly opened his eyes and said bitterly: "I really regret it, I regret coming to Changji City, I regret listening to the family's orders, and bringing Li Ruoxi back to that dead girl. Everything that happened is like a nightmare, and I'm afraid that our family company will also be taken away from me."

  Li Yu'e slowly opened her eyes, looking pale and gloomy at the others, before saying viciously: "I want to take revenge on that bastard, make him taste what it's like to be worse off than dead."

  Li Ziqiang coldly glanced at Li Yu'e and sneered, "You dare to avenge him? Don't you fear provoking him into killing you?"

  Li Yu'e's eyes showed a hint of fear, and her body trembled slightly before she slowly closed her eyes.

  Li Ziqiang said it hit her in the heart, she didn't dare to, because she clearly realized that if she really provoked that ruthless and cruel bastard, he would really kill herself.

  "I won't rest until I've avenged him." Li Yu-e said venomously.

  Her fingernails dug deep into her palm, and fresh blood slid down the gaps between her fingers, but she seemed to be unaware of it.

  Li Ziqiang took a deep look at Li Yu'e, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He then quickly pulled out his phone and dialed the number of the family's patriarch, his father.

  "What's going on?" A low but authoritative voice came from the phone.

  Upon hearing this, Li Ziqiang's body trembled slightly, and he bitterly said: "Dad, I, Ziming, and Yu'e have all been defeated. A young man appeared beside Ruo Xi, about 20 years old, named Wang Ke, his strength is very strong, the five of us joined forces are no match for him. Now that Wang Ke has taken Ruo Xi away."

  After a moment of silence, a low voice came from the other end of the phone: "Tell me exactly what happened."

  Li Ziqiang hastily recounted all that had happened from start to finish, and then waited anxiously for his father's arrangements.

  "I've got it, I'll take care of this matter. You five come back now! The Snow Jade Cream from our family can reconnect your severed tendons and you won't be affected in the future." The voice on the phone came again.

  Li Ziqiang's eyes widened, and a strong joyful color floated on his face. He held the phone and respectfully answered it. After the other party hung up the phone, he slowly put away the phone and said in a low voice: "Father asked us to go back. The family's Xueyu cream can connect our broken tendons. Now let's recover from our injuries and leave in four hours."

  Following the silent Li Ruoxi back to the villa, Wang Ke had just wanted to open his mouth and persuade Li Ruoxi again when the bell outside the courtyard door suddenly rang.

  He walked quickly to the gate and opened it, and Wang Ke saw two middle-aged men wearing black suits standing outside the gate with cold faces.

  "Who are you?" Wang Ke asked in puzzlement.

  One of the men, who was wearing glasses with golden frames and holding a folder in his hand, looked at Wang Ke deeply and said calmly: "We are people sent by the family. The master has just called us to take back this villa. Is the young lady here? We need to talk to her."

  Wang Ke's expression turned cold and he said indifferently: "Come in!"

  Leading the two middle-aged men to the villa hall, Wang Ke looked at Li Ruoxi sitting silently on the sofa and Song Yi standing beside her with a confused face before speaking: "Boss, your family has sent people over to take back the house."

  Li Ruoxi's icy face flashed with a desolate expression, she turned her head to glance at the two middle-aged men, then stood up and said in a cold voice: "I understand, Song Auntie, pack your things and come with me! If you're still willing to follow me, your salary will remain the same as before. If not, I'll give you some money and you can go home!"

  Song Yi stared blankly at Li Ruoxi, then turned her head to glance at the two middle-aged men before quietly saying: "Miss, leave this place, where are you going?"

  Li Ruoxi shook her head and said: "I don't know."

  Song Yi sighed and said softly, "Why don't you come to my home first? The house is not big, but at least there's a place to settle down. I won't ask for wages, as long as you're okay."

  A hint of divine light flashed in Li Ruoxi's eyes, she stood up and grabbed Song Niang's hand, shaking her head and said: "Song Niang, I know you're good to me, but I can't go. How about this? You go back home first, and after I settle down, I'll come pick you up, okay?"

  Song Yi hesitated for a moment, she could feel Li Ruoxi's determination, and then nodded in agreement.

  Suddenly, Li Ruoxi seemed to think of something and didn't bother with the two middle-aged people. Instead, she quickly grabbed her bag and rushed towards the second floor.

  Five minutes later, Li Ruoxi sat paralyzed on the bed, holding her mobile phone in one hand and a bank card in the other, as two lines of clear tears rolled down her pale cheeks once again.

  This bank card was given by her family and the money inside is hers to use, but now the bank card has been frozen, which means she can no longer use a single penny inside.

  There were also four or five bank cards beside her, all of which had been frozen.

  "You guys are really cruel, must you kill us all?" Li Ruoxi's stunned face and painful eyes looked so helpless.

  Twenty minutes later, she finally wiped away the tears on her face. After that strong stroke, the corners of her mouth curved into an arc.

  "It's a good thing I made the worst plan earlier. Such a family, it doesn't matter if I don't stay. I, Li Ruoxi, don't believe that with a large sum of money in my hands, I won't be able to create a career that completely belongs to me."
