"What did you say, Third Grandpa?" Wang Chao's face darkened.
Apologize to Wang Lin? What a joke! It would be good enough if he didn't beat him up!
"You didn't hear me clearly? I'll say it again. You apologize to Wang Lin immediately!" Wang Jianguo demanded.
"That's right, you must apologize!"
"Wang Lin is a good person in our village. He repairs bridges and roads, and even gives benefits to the elderly in our village during festivals. Wang Chao, you beat even such a great benefactor, you are simply scum!"
"Wang Chao, if you don't apologize today, don't even think about leaving here!"
"Wang Lin has done so many good deeds, made huge contributions to the village and society, created value."
"Wang Chao, how could you beat such a great benefactor? You are simply despicable! Wang Anguo is such an honest and upright person, how could he give birth to such a heinous bastard like you?!"
"Wang Chao, apologize to Wang Lin immediately, or else, our Wang family will expel you from the clan!"
After Wang Jianguo's voice, many people at the scene stood up one after another, scolding Wang Chao with great momentum.
Over the years, Wang Lin had used the money he defrauded from Wang Chao to start his own company. In order to enhance his reputation, he also used a portion of that money to do good deeds in the village and earn a good reputation.
He even gave millions of dollars in gifts to curry favor with the village chief.
In order to make the respected Wang Jianguo stand by his side, he arranged Wang Jianguo's granddaughter in a very good private school, and paid for the tuition himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs for the other elders, he also used various ways to please them.
Moreover, this time, Wang Lin was in charge of the village demolition and had given them a lot of benefits.
Frankly speaking, in the eyes of Wang Jianguo and others, Wang Lin was a surefire great benefactor, a philanthropist.
And Wang Chao beating such a person made him a thug, a villain in their eyes!
Hearing these people's words, Wang Lin looked smug and sneered at Wang Chao, his eyes even more arrogant.
The person who kills and burns wears a golden belt!
The person who repairs bridges and roads doesn't even have a corpse!
He knew that one day, Wang Chao would discover that he had embezzled his money.
Therefore, many years ago, he had already begun to lay out, using Wang Chao's money to please the elders of Wang Chao's family and even buying off the village chief and other respected elders in the village.
When he learned that the village was going to be demolished, he even gave these people a lot of benefits.
In this way, he could establish himself as a great philanthropist in the village.
Only in this way could he return home in glory and enjoy everyone's praise.
After being beaten up by Wang Chao, he not only sought the help of He Guang to deal with Wang Chao, but also immediately gathered all the elders in the village together in order to make Wang Chao wary and powerless.
Moreover, he spent so much time shaping his noble and charitable character, earning the love and admiration of so many people.
As long as Wang Chao dared to fight with him, he dared to bring these people out to crush Wang Chao and ruin his reputation.
"Haha, you're still too naive to fight with me, Wang Chao!" Wang Lin thought proudly to himself.
"This Wang Lin is really a hypocritical guy," He Guang said, sitting on the side and watching the elders reprimand Wang Chao, then looking at Wang Lin with approval. "It's no wonder he's doing so well, being such a shameless and despicable animal."
In this day and age, dignity and honesty are not worth mentioning!
Most people who do well in society are bad people who steal and cheat.
Wang Lin used to just be a laborer overseas with a bleak future, probably a lowly person for life, being stepped on by others in the dirt.
However, he met Wang Chao, cheated him out of his money, and transformed himself into a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist, receiving the support of so many people.
Wang Chao, who worked hard for his money, would find it as difficult as climbing to the sky to get his money back in this situation.
Moreover, with so many elders as witnesses, Wang Chao not only couldn't do anything to Wang Lin, but was also likely to ruin his reputation.
This was a plan that killed two birds with one stone.
After all, these old people controlled the assets of the whole village, and some of them had strong backgrounds.
Even if Wang Chao was stronger, he would not be able to beat these giants.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Watching the elders in the family being fooled by Wang Lin, scolding him, Wang Chao's eyes flashed with coldness, his fists making a cracking sound, and his anger was raging.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe said coldly, "Third Grandpa, you've all been deceived. The money that Wang Lin has spent over the years has been my hard-earned money!"
"Your hard-earned money? Haha, Wang Chao, what kind of thing are you? With your high school education and family background, you can't even earn a million if you sell yourself," Village Chief Wang Xiang sneered and taunted. "Do you know that in the past ten years, Wang Lin has invested millions of dollars in the village alone?"
"Are you still shameless enough to talk about your hard-earned money?"
Pausing for a moment, he glared at Wang Chao and rebuked, "Wang Chao, even now you still want to argue, you're simply lawless!"
"However, for the sake of your grandfather's face, I'll give you one last chance. Apologize to Wang Lin immediately, or we'll call the police and charge you with intentional injury, guaranteeing that you'll sit in jail for a few years!"
"Shut up!" Wang Chao angrily exclaimed.
Without a doubt, this village head must have taken money from Wang Lin, which is why he was so devoted to defending Wang Lin.
"How dare you scold me? Wang Chao, are you tired of living?" Wang Xiang's face turned cold, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
He immediately took out his phone, ready to call the police and arrest Wang Chao.
"Village Head!"
Wang Jianguo stood up, grabbed Wang Xiang's phone, and said in a deep voice, "Regardless of the situation, Wang Chao is still a member of my Wang family. Give me face and don't call the police. Let me handle it."
"Okay, Third Grandpa, I'll give you face. I'll leave this matter to you, but let me make it clear that if Wang Chao remains stubborn, don't blame me for being impolite." Wang Xiang said.
"Definitely, definitely."
Wang Jianguo nodded, then walked over to Wang Chao with his cane and said, "Wang Chao, you've really done something wrong this time. Wang Lin is a good person who has done many good deeds and has helped Third Grandpa a lot."
"Listen to Third Grandpa's advice and apologize to Wang Lin. I guarantee that no one will continue to hold you accountable for your mistakes."
At first, he tried to persuade Wang Chao with kind words, but later his expression turned cold and he spoke slowly, "If you insist on being stubborn, don't blame Third Grandpa for not being polite to you!"
