Chapter 18 Unless Yang Ce tells us in person

As the words fell, a man in a property management uniform, holding a rubber baton, approached the trio.

He eyed Shen Lang and the other two with suspicion, launching into a barrage of questions.

"Who are you people?"

"Do you know what this place is?"

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing the man's arrogant and overbearing demeanor, Shen Lang almost kicked him away.

However, Shen Lang eventually held back.

After all, he couldn't be with Yu Xiao and the others twenty-four hours a day. If Yu Xiao and the others had a bad relationship with the property management after moving in, it wouldn't be a good thing.

"Hello, we are the owners of Villa Number 29. We'll be in your care from now on."

Shen Lang, carrying Yu Xiao, stepped forward, forcing a smile, and said.

"What? You're the owners of Villa Number 29?"

Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, the man in the property management uniform was instantly furious. "Everyone in the Emperor Villa Garden knows that Villa Number 29 belongs to Yang Ce, the King of Nanling. You're the owners? Kid, do you take me for an idiot?"

Yang Ce had reserved Villa Number 29 when the Emperor Villa Garden first went on sale.

The property management company of the Emperor Villa Garden knew this inside and out.

During this time, the property management company had dispatched personnel to patrol the villa twenty-four hours a day, fearing that Yang Ce might find fault with their services when he moved in.

However, the man in the property management uniform never imagined that instead of Yang Ce, Shen Lang and his group would show up. And they had the audacity to impersonate the villa's owners.

"Yes, the previous owner of this villa was indeed Yang Ce, but he gave it to us just two hours ago."

Shen Lang looked at the man in the property management uniform and smiled, "If you don't believe me, you can call Yang Ce yourself to verify."

"Kid, you dare to mess with me?"

Hearing Shen Lang's words, the man in the property management uniform's face turned ashen, then red, filled with rage.

Who was Yang Ce? He was the King of Nanling, feared by both the underworld and the legitimate society. Who in Nanling dared to question him? Wasn't that seeking death?

Moreover, a nobody like him couldn't possibly have the phone number of such an important figure.

Wasn't Shen Lang's statement just toying with him?

"See, you don't believe me when I tell the truth, and you're too afraid to call and verify. You're making things difficult for me."

Seeing the man in the property management uniform getting angry, Shen Lang spread his hands, saying with a helpless expression.

"Kid, you're not making things difficult, you've been caught red-handed and have no excuse."

The man in the property management uniform sneered, "I don't know how you three got in, but I know for sure that you're up to no good. You're here with malicious intent."

"Oh..."

Shen Lang's smile vanished, replaced by a look of playful mockery. "So, you're saying you're going to deal with us next, right?"

Shen Lang was someone who relished chaos. Since the man wouldn't back down despite his politeness, there was no need to be courteous anymore.

"Kid, you're wise enough."

The man in the property management uniform pointed his rubber baton at Shen Lang and said coldly, "If you know what's good for you, you'll come with me to the property management office and cooperate with the investigation. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite right now."

"Impolite?"

Shen Lang stepped forward and said coldly, "I'm the one who's impolite to others, and no one has ever been able to be impolite to me. I'd like to see how you plan to be impolite to me."

"Fine, kid, you brought this upon yourself."

The man in the property management uniform, seeing Shen Lang's arrogance, retorted angrily, "For people like you who sneak in with ill intentions, no one will hold me accountable even if I cripple all of you one by one."

"Since you're being uncooperative, don't blame me for crippling you first, and then taking you and these two women to the property management office for a slow investigation."

With that, the man in the property management uniform swung his rubber baton fiercely towards Shen Lang's forehead.

"Brother Shen, be careful."

Seeing that the man in the property management uniform had actually attacked, Yu Xiao and Yu Fei cried out in unison, their faces filled with worry.

But it was too late. As Yu Xiao spoke, the rubber baton was already descending towards Shen Lang's forehead.

However, in the next second, Shen Lang remained standing where he was, still holding Yu Xiao.

And the man in the property management uniform was sent flying seven or eight meters away, crashing heavily into a tree, his mouth full of blood.

"What happened?"

Seeing this, both Yu Xiao and Yu Fei were bewildered and looked at Shen Lang in unison.

But it wasn't just them; even the man in the property management uniform had the same expression.

It was too fast. He hadn't even seen how Shen Lang kicked him before being struck in the chest and sent flying.

At this moment, the man in the property management uniform could clearly hear the cracking sounds of his ribs breaking.

If he moved, the broken bones would immediately pierce his internal organs, taking his life.

"Kid... you... you actually dared to assault someone?"

The man in the property management uniform looked at Shen Lang, furious, "Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

Shen Lang looked at him with disdain and said, "You accused us of having ill intentions first and then tried to attack us. Yet, you're acting righteously as if you're the victim. You're not only hypocritical but also shameless."

"That kick just now was a small lesson for you. I hope you'll stop here. Otherwise, next time it won't be your ribs that shatter, but your skull."

After speaking, Shen Lang ignored him and looked at Yu Xiao, saying, "Open the door, let's go inside."

"Okay--"

Yu Xiao nodded, gripped the key, and turned it gently. The villa door creaked open.

It was a three-story villa, covering an area of nearly 500 square meters. The space was vast, the decoration luxurious, and the opulent furnishings made one feel as if they had entered a palace.

Upon entering the living room, Shen Lang gently placed Yu Fei on the sofa to sit, then sat down himself.

"Brother Shen, what's going on with this villa? I just heard it has something to do with Yang Ce. Is it true?"

Seeing Shen Lang sit down, Yu Xiao also cautiously sat down and asked nervously.

"That's right, this villa does have something to do with Yang Ce. However, this villa is now yours."

Shen Lang smiled, "Yang Ce's subordinates burned down your house, so I made him compensate you with a house, and he gave you this villa."

However, upon hearing Shen Lang's words, neither Yu Xiao nor Yu Fei believed him.

"You don't believe me?"

Seeing the reaction on the sisters' faces, Shen Lang gave a wry smile and said, "What do I need to do for you to believe me?"

Yu Xiao and Yu Fei said in unison, "Unless Yang Ce tells us in person."
