Chapter 769: The Protective Sixth Senior Brother, Must You Bring Humiliation On Yourself? (1)
“…”
The surroundings fell silent in an instant.
The heavy security door of the LI family’s mansion had been taken down and casually thrown aside.
The servants in the courtyard knelt on the ground, not daring to lift their heads.
This face had appeared multiple times in news reports across various countries and frequently graced the covers of financial magazines.
LI Yanchen was undoubtedly one of the most outstanding young talents of his generation in Sijiu City. He had also been invited to numerous economic forums.
But compared to the Duke of Muston, the difference was like heaven and earth. The gap was too vast.
Not to mention the families of the Free State.
Why had the Duke of Muston suddenly come to the LI family?
Everyone in the LI family was dumbfounded.
“Aren’t you planning to punish me?” Raphael rolled up his sleeves and smiled. “I’m right here. Tell me, and maybe I can help you. I’m curious to see who can actually punish me.”
Old Master LI, who had been in charge of the LI family for many years, had never seen such a scene.
His legs went weak, and his teeth chattered. “Your Highness…”
LI Yanchen’s confidants had offended the Duke of Muston?
And now he had come to their door?
Since when had the Duke of Muston become so serious?
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have dared to say those words even if he had a hundred times the courage.
“The LI family is impressive,” Raphael clapped his hands. “Your subordinates dared to offend me, and yet you still want to use my routes for your deals? It seems like you don’t need them anymore.”
He spoke lightly, but it intensified Old Master LI’s fear, nearly snapping his nerves.
Indeed, the Duke of Muston controlled the economic lifeline of the Western Continent.
As long as the LI family wanted to export their products, they needed the Duke’s approval.
This was cutting off the LI family’s lifeline!
“And you,” Raphael snapped his fingers, pointing specifically at LI Yanchen. “From now on, keep a low profile in my presence. Understand?”
“You’re really confident, aren’t you? Maybe you should look in the mirror and see what you are.”
After he finished speaking, he took the coat handed to him by the head guard, put it on, and left without even glancing at the LI family.
He was exceedingly arrogant.
LI Yanchen’s gaze was fierce, his fists clenched, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly. It was evident he felt deeply humiliated but couldn’t retaliate.
That was the Duke of Muston. Even with the Yu family, they couldn’t compete against him.
LI Yanchen didn’t believe what the Duke had said.
Who wouldn’t recognize his face?
How could anyone deliberately offend him?
There had to be another reason.
Unfortunately, the person involved was crippled, and nothing could be asked.
The LI family could only suffer in silence, unable to express their grievances.
“This is outrageous!” Old Master LI trembled all over. “He’s a foreigner, and he dares to act recklessly on Great Xia’s territory. I will report this to the Thousand Army Alliance!”
Despite his words, Old Master LI didn’t dare to go to the Thousand Army Alliance.
After all, the LI family had committed numerous misdeeds. Going there would only bring trouble upon themselves.
Given the Thousand Army Alliance Leader Xiao Wenjian’s style, he would probably have a drink with the Duke of Muston.
They were still too weak!
Old Master LI turned around. “Yanchen, remember this day. You must push the LI Group onto the international stage and obtain the token of the Free State!”
No matter how strong the Duke of Muston was, he couldn’t compare to the forces of the Free State.
Fortunes change over time.
They would see who would come out on top!
LI Yanchen clenched his fists tighter. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I will.”

Undisturbed, Si Fuqing had been happily interning for the past two days.
While eating at the hospital cafeteria, Sang Yanqing came to find her, sporting two dark circles under her eyes.
“In the past few days, I’ve received a total of one hundred and thirty TV drama scripts,” Sang Yanqing said after taking a sip of water and catching her breath, “and thirty-two movie scripts.”
Si Fuqing paused. “That many?”
Yet, only a few dramas could actually air in a year, and even fewer made any impact.
“Yes, many of them, and eighty percent are inviting you to play the lead role,” Sang Yanqing nodded. “Do you want to do a TV drama or a movie?”
Si Fuqing thought for a moment and nodded. “Let’s do another TV drama first, then a movie.”
“Yes, I thought the same. There are two drama scripts here, and the director teams are very reliable,” Sang Yanqing pushed two scripts towards her. “You just finished playing a role in a xianxia drama. I suggest you take on a character completely different from your last one.”
There were two kinds of actors.
Some stayed within their comfort zone, playing the same type of roles repeatedly.
Others constantly seeked breakthroughs, even if it meant risking failure.
