Chapter 1487


    Now, on such an asion, he had to apologize to Fade, such an obscure person, in front of tens to


    hundreds of thousands of people?


    If he really did this, he would lose others'' respect and he might not even be able to continue his


    career anymore.


    Thinking of this, Bet said to ra, "Miss Moo, the leader of the Moo family and I know each


    other, so we can be considered friends. I did make a mistake in this matter, and I willpensate


    youter. But now, it''ste, let''s head to the central ind first!"


    He was deliberately trying to stall for time, gradually changing the topic.


    But then, a deep voice sounded, whichpletely dispelled Bet from his delusions.


    "We are friends? Why am I unaware of this?"


    After that, a man in histe forties walked towards them and stared at Bet with a stern look on


    his face.


    When Bet saw the man, his face froze instantly. "Head, Head of the Moo family. Why, why are


    you here? I, I..."


    "Seems like someone was deliberately trying to im that he is my friend to take action against my


    true friends. How can I sit around and do nothing?" Taufeeq asked in a low voice.


    That kind of pressure from a powerful martial artist instantly made Bet sweat profusely, and he


    almost copsed to the ground.


    Pord immediately understood the deeper meaning of his words. "True friends, doesn''t that


    mean..."


    As Pord shifted his gaze to look at Fade, Taufeeq and ra started walking towards Fade.


    ra jumped over, smiling gleefully and approached Fade. "Brother Chen, I''m sorry. I''mte and


    you''ve been wronged."


    Then, Taufeeq also walked over and bowed slightly. He took the initiative to greet Fade, "Mr. Chen,


    you''re here."

    Fade shook Taufeeq''s hand and said lightly, "Mr. Moo, you don''t have to be so polite. Just call me


    Fade."


    Taufeeq nodded and then turned to Moore and Joey, greeting them as well.


    When the onlookers saw this scene, they were absolutely taken aback. It was already shocking


    enough that Fade was friends with Taufeeq, but now it seemed that Taufeeq really respected


    Fade.


    This made everyone dumbfounded as they began secretly guessing Fade''s identity and


    background.


    Meanwhile, Bet and Pord, who were on the other side, were dumbstruck by what they saw.


    They were so shocked that they were frozen in ce, not able to move a single inch.


    "Fade, what''s going on?" After greeting him, Taufeeq pointed to Bet and asked.


    Fade answered faintly, "It''s not a big deal. It''s just that we had some conflict with them two days


    ago. They tried to suppress others with their power and wanted tomit misdeeds, thus I taught


    them a lesson and now they are back for revenge."


    "What!" Taufeeq''s face darkened immediately as he continued in a deep voice, "Bet Xu, it''s time


    for someone else to be the director of the museum."


    Hearing this, Bet couldn''t help it anymore. His legs went weak and he dropped to the ground as


    if his legs turned to mud. "Master Taufeeq, I know I was wrong. No, don''t..."


    Although Taufeeq wasn''t his immediate superior, and he wasn''t part of the system, with the Moo


    family''s status and power, it would be a piece of cake for them to fire him as the director of the


    museum.


    What''s worse, if he had offended the head of the Moo family, it would almost be impossible for him


    to continue living in Long City in the future, not even in Zobery District.


    Therefore, Bet couldn''t care about his ego anymore. He justid on the ground and cried for


    mercy.


    However, Taufeeq, Fade and the others were not interested in dealing with such a person. They


    waved their hands and ordered the bodyguards to drag Bet and Pord out.


    After Bet''s matter was dealt with, Taufeeq personally led the way and brought Fade and the


    others inside. They followed the wooden bridge and arrived at the middle of the central ind.


    Compared to the hustle and bustle of the riverbank, although the ind wasn''t huge, it was still less


    crowded.


    Around the central ind, there was a ring of bricks and stones. In the center of it was a three-story


    tall wooden building. The wooden building was exquisitely decorated with dazzling colors, which


    attracted a lot of attention.


    Below the wooden building, a group of well-dressed people were chatting and ttering each other.


    The Lantern Festival had turned into a party for people with higher social status.


    Without a doubt, Taufeeq was one of the most prominent figures in this party.


    The guests he had personally gone out to greet naturally became the center of attention as well. For


    a time, many people came forward to propose a toast, and their warm attitude made Fade


    somewhat overwhelmed.


    After exchanging pleasantries, Taufeeq brought Fade and the others to the top floor of the wooden


    building.


    There were even fewer people there. There were only a few exquisite wooden tables, on which


    fragrant tea and desserts were served. Several guests were chatting softly.


    It was obvious that those who had ess to the third floor of the wooden building were the honored


    guests amongst the distinguished visitors. Taufeeq had brought Fade to the third floor and that


    indirectly showed how high of a social status Fade had.


    Taufeeq strode in. A middle-aged man stood up and walked up to him with a smile. "Taufeeq, you''re


    finally back." "Salman, I''m truly sorry for keeping you waiting. My apologies." Taufeeq''s attitude was


    quite humble in front of Salman.


    "We''re all brothers, Taufeeq. Why are you apologizing? That''s too excessive," Salman said


    forthrightly. He then nced at Fade and the others behind Taufeeq. He was judging them as he


    asked, "Are these the honored guests you personally went to wee in?"


    Taufeeq nodded, then smiled and introduced, "Salman, this is Mr. Fade Chen, whom I''ve mentioned


    to you before. He''s not only an honored guest, but he is also my lifesaver."


    "So he is Mr. Chen." Salman looked over at him, and he was not very enthusiastic.


    Concurrently, Taufeeq introduced Salman to Fade and said, "This is Salman Zheng, the chairman of


    the Chamber of Commerce of Southern District, as well as amittee member of the political


    consultative conference for industry andmerce. He is a big shot."


    "Taufeeq, you''re exaggerating. I am just a president. How can I be counted as a big shot?" Salman


    said modestly, but his expression showed that he was still very proud.


    Meanwhile, a young man who seemed to be in histe twenties called out to Salman, "Dad", before


    striding towards them.


    Seeing this, Taufeeq immediately introduced him, "This is Keith Zheng, also known as Young


    Master Zheng, Salman''s son. He''s young and promising!"


    Fade turned over and saw him. He slightly squinted his eyes. This Young Master Zheng was the


    one he met two days ago in the hotel where he bumped into ra.


    Back then, Keith didn''t have a great attitude towards him.


    As expected, when Keith saw that it was Fade, his eyes suddenly turned cold and a look of


    displeasure and disdain shed across his face.
