Chapter 473: Chapter 473

When Cao An heard Xu Hao say this, he also felt rather annoyed.

Xu Hao was too aggressive, completely disregarding him and not taking his feelings into account at all.

In Huadu, Cao An was also a person of status and identity, but Xu Hao constantly humiliated him, leaving him no dignity.

If he could beat Xu Hao, he would have ordered someone to kill Xu Hao long ago.

Unfortunately, he couldn't beat him.

With a helpless expression, Cao An said, "Young Master Xu, please state your demands. As long as I can do it, I definitely will!"

Xu Hao glanced at him and said indifferently, "Last time, I took your Cao Family's security company. Are you still angry about that?"

"Not at all, not at all, Young Master Xu. My subordinate made a mistake and offended you. It's only right to offer you some compensation," Cao An hurriedly replied with a smile, but a bad premonition was growing stronger inside him.

Xu Hao wouldn't be thinking about taking over the Cao Family's assets, would he?

It was very possible!

Cao An knew that the Xu Liu Group was moving to Huadu. Although the company's address had been established, they were currently looking to expand their business channels. The Four Great Families and the Seven Small Families directly or indirectly controlled at least seventy percent of Huadu's industries. With Xu Hao's ambition, a tiny share would certainly not be enough, so his plan was to gradually cannibalize each family's assets.

And as the Cao Family had been at odds with Xu Hao from the start, they were naturally the first target.

Thinking about this, an unbearable sadness welled up in Cao An's heart, thinking how he, one of the prominent figures of the Seven Small Families, had fallen to such a state!

He even had to act according to the whims of a young man from a small city!

Xu Hao glanced at him and said, "Cao An, I know you must feel very unhappy inside, right?"

Xu Hao didn't wait for him to respond and continued, "But have you forgotten how you offended me initially?"

Cao An's expression changed. How could he speak openly about drugging Chen Suyi? With Chen Suyi's popularity, he would undoubtedly be viciously attacked by her fans. Did Cao An no longer want to mix in the online community?

It was then that Wei Laosan actually laughed out loud, recalling the scene of Cao An dancing in public, which was truly hilarious.

"You committed an act worse than that of a beast back then. If it weren't for me being there, Su Yi might have fallen prey to your evil intentions. I already showed you extreme mercy by sparing your life at that time."

Upon hearing Xu Hao say this, Cao An suddenly felt that what Xu Hao said made a lot of sense.

During those days, whenever Xu Hao took action, someone almost always died, and if not, they were severely crippled and managed to escape!

After realizing this, he suddenly understood that Xu Hao had indeed held back at the time, merely disciplining him a bit without using much force. Otherwise, with Xu Hao's strength, he could have killed him in a minute!

But, Xu Hao hadn't done so.

Cao An suddenly realized, was it possible that he had narrowly escaped death from Xu Hao's hands? Enjoy the story by reading on *.

Was he supposed to thank Xu Hao for not killing him?

Something didn't feel quite right.

Cao An scratched his head, feeling like his brain was somewhat inadequate.

Xu Hao then continued, "This time I won't impose too heavy a punishment on you either. Just transfer your family's malls to me."

Everyone fell silent. Xu Hao simply demanded their malls. How audacious was that?

Those were the Cao Family's assets!

Worth at least ten billion or more!

How could they simply give them away?

Cao An immediately said awkwardly, "Young Master Xu, that's a bit much. Our Cao Family has a total of three malls. Although we can't compare to the financial might of the Sun Family, they're still worth at least ten billion. You're asking for these three malls just like that, isn't that a bit too much?"

Xu Hao responded indifferently, "If you make me go to your Cao Family to demand them, then it won't be just the three malls, it would require much greater sacrifices from your family to quench my anger."

With no choice, Cao An said, "Young Master Xu, as you know, the Cao Family isn't solely decided by me alone. Even my father can't directly decide on the family's asset allocation. It must be agreed upon by the family elders, so I still need to go back and report this."

Xu Hao said with a faint smile, "I'll give you three days. If I don't get a satisfactory response, you'll bear the consequences."

After saying this, Xu Hao left with the three women.

Watching the backs of Xu Hao and the others as they left, Cao An felt an indescribable sense of frustration. In front of Xu Hao, he dared not say anything rebellious!

He feared that Xu Hao would slap him to death, just like how none of the eight Wu Family Bodyguards survived that night.

Wei Laosan glanced at Cao An, walked over, patted his shoulder, and laughed, "Boy, you've got problems again. Better keep your subordinates in check, or who knows if one day Young Master Xu might slaughter you, hahaha!"

He laughed a few times and returned to the Martial Arts Club's office building.

Seeing Cao An get put in his place gave him a great sense of satisfaction—Cao An had been too arrogant in the past, and now he was getting his comeuppance!
