Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 611: Going Too Far
As his words fell, everyone looked at him as if he were insane.
Even at this time, he still had such a defiant attitude, even threatening Chen Jianxiong!
You have to understand, he had already angered everyone!
Any slightly rational person knew that now was the time to appease the crowd's anger and let the situation gradually subside!
Instead, he didn't try to defuse it; he was pouring oil on the fire!
This was something many people, including those young masters and misses, as well as the elderly, had not expected.
"Su Chen, you're crossing the line!"
Situ Lei immediately shouted angrily:
"Not only have you hurt someone, but you also won't allow them to be treated. Don't you think you're being way too bullyish?"
"Way too bullyish?"
Su Chen scoffed:
"I'll show you bullyish. Today, if he doesn't reveal the mastermind behind the scenes, there's no way he's leaving alive!"
"Hmph, President Chen, let's go. I refuse to believe that this guy really dares to be so bold!"
Situ Lei snorted coldly, and then helped Chen Jianxiong to prepare to leave.
But just as he took one step, Su Chen moved, instantly appearing behind Chen Jianxiong, and kicked directly at the bend of his leg!
"Crack!"
At the same time, a clear sound of bone cracking was heard, and Chen Jianxiong's leg fell to the ground with a thud!
"Ah~~~~"
Following that, Chen Jianxiong howled like a pig being slaughtered!
No matter how tough he was, he couldn't resist this kind of heart-wrenching pain!
Situ Lei immediately looked at Su Chen; he couldn't believe that, in such an incendiary situation, he really dared to strike!
The other onlookers' eyes also widened in shock; this guy was a pure demon, not caring at all about what others thought!
For a moment, everyone was too scared to make any noise!
"This guy is just too domineering!"
Pei Jian shook his head and sighed bitterly.
"Being domineering requires corresponding strength; otherwise, it will end up as a joke."
Pei Man said with a slight smile.
"Do you think he has that strength?"
"I don't know, but I believe he does!"
Pei Man turned and looked in a certain direction:
"Those people should be coming out by now."
"If they don't come out soon, it's going to be difficult to clean up this mess."
Pei Jian nodded in agreement.
"Young man, spare others when you can, and stop while you can!"
Just as Pei Jian finished speaking, an old voice rang out.
Though the voice was aged, it was filled with robust power and authority!
Su Chen lifted his head to look, and saw seven elderly men walking towards him.
While these elders were all advanced in age, with even the youngest being close to seventy, each one of them had a ruddy complexion and steady footsteps, clearly still in good health.
```
These elders were, of course, from the Five Great Families, including Shen Mingchang from the Shen Family, Pei Zhennan from the Pei Family, Su Chun from the Su Family, Zheng Yuxian from the Zheng Family, and Situ Kong from the Situ Family.
Among these individuals, most were still the heads of their respective families, with the sole exception being Zheng Yuxian, who had passed the position of family head to his son, Zheng Qiusheng.
Despite this, the power of the Zheng Family still lay in his hands; thus, in reality, he remained the actual head of the Zheng Family.
Naturally, among these elders were also the second-in-commands, namely Shen Mingchang's brother Shen Mingsheng and Zheng Yuxian's brother Zheng Yuhua.
After all, there weren't many of the older generation left alive—this gathering could be said to include most of the ancestors from the Five Great Families, aside from two or three others who were either bedridden or in hospitals.
Following behind these elders were some individuals, almost all in their forties or fifties, each emanating a robust aura of martial artists!
They were not the descendants of these elders but their personal bodyguards, with naturally extraordinary cultivation!
Seeing these elders approach, the faces of those young heirs instantly lit up with fervent gleams!
All at once, their minds became more agile!
"Young man, shining too brightly is not necessarily a good thing; remember the principle that what flourishes must decline."
The speaker continued:
"Young man, how about you do me a favor? Let's call it even today; we won't pursue the matter further, and I guarantee this CEO Chen won't either."
The person speaking was none other than Situ Kong, the elder of the Situ Family. He looked at Su Chen with a slight smile on his face.
Truth be told, he somewhat admired this young man—not only him, but most of the others did as well.
It had been a long time since they had seen such a youth, and some even entertained the idea of winning his loyalty, including Zheng Yuxian of the Zheng Family.
Although Su Chen had just struck Zheng Min, Zheng Min was, after all, merely a relative from a side branch.
Having lived through most of their lives, these elders knew that what mattered most for the prosperity and succession of a family was talent!
And this young man before them was indeed rare talent!
Furthermore, it's better for a family's image in a public setting to show a generous and compassionate elder.
These old foxes, seasoned with age, had their own schemes in every move they made.
"Grandpa..."
Situ Lei thought his grandfather had come out to stand up for him, especially after Su Chen had struck Chen Jianxiong—it was as if he had slapped his face.
But unexpectedly, his grandfather came out seemingly wanting to smooth things over, which made him very anxious.
However, just as he began to speak, he was stopped by Situ Kong's gaze and was forced to close his mouth.
"Yes, young man, take a step back to broaden your horizons; after all, these are all trifles that needn't be taken to heart," said Su Chun from the Su Family, with a cheerful smile on his face:
"Surely the young man won't deny us elders this bit of face."
The other elders conveyed similar sentiments, including Pei Zhennan, who had mostly figured out Su Chen's identity, and felt that they couldn't keep up the dispute.
The onlookers were somewhat surprised by this scene—the elders from the Five Great Families didn't seem eager to pursue the matter with this young man.

Just a moment ago, the crowd was in high spirits, but now they were somewhat disappointed.
They had thought that, given the young man's strong demeanor, the elders from the Five Great Families would surely take the opportunity to put him in his place.
After all, wasn't making a scene at the financial summit, effectively organized by the Five Great Families, tantamount to disrespecting them?
Yet, contrary to their expectations, the elders chose to step back and reconcile.
In their view, since these elders had spoken, the affair was undoubtedly concluded.
The young heirs were also somewhat resentful and puzzled by the elders' motives, but they did not dare go against the elders' words.
For a moment, all eyes were on Su Chen; he had indisputably become the absolute protagonist of the summit!
However, in everyone's minds, there was almost no suspense about the young man's forthcoming decision—he would surely take the easy way out...
