Charlie overheard the conversation and scoffed, “A Japanese family thinks they can show off on my Chinese turf? Just so you know, even if Ito Takehiko stood right in front of me and tried to act tough, I’d still take him down. He’d be begging on his knees for mercy.”
“You jerk!” Koichi Tanaka, who felt a bit guilty towards Charlie because of his girlfriend’s rudeness, suddenly erupted with anger.
He admonished sharply, “How dare you disrespect Mr. Ito? Have you lost your mind?”
Charlie smirked, turned to face Koichi Tanaka, and retorted coldly, “Tanaka, is it? Long time no see.”
The moment Tanakaid eyes on Charlie, he looked as if he had seen a ghost.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
He vividly recalled how Charlie had effortlessly destroyed Yamamoto Kazuki’s reputation with a single move. Without a doubt, Charlie was the most formidable person he had ever encountered, and he never expected to run into this intimidating figure at the Hermes store in Eastcliff Airport.
His legs turned to jelly, and he knelt on the ground, shuffling a few steps closer to Charlie, uttering in a mix of respect and fear, “Mr. Wade, I had no idea it was you! I sincerely apologize!”
Koichi Tanaka was understandably terrified of Charlie.
Previously, the renowned Japanese master Yamamoto Kazuki had dared to challenge Charlie, only to be left crippled and utterly subdued. There was no way Tanaka would defy him!<fn8665> For original chapters go to find~novel</fn8665>
If Charlie decided to take offense, Tanaka knew he might find himself back in Japan, utterly defeated.
Tanaka Hiroshi, oblivious to the unfolding situation with his girlfriend, was taken aback by Koichi’s sudden kneeling and apology. He quickly reached out to pull Koichi up, shouting angrily, “Koichi, have you lost your mind? You’re Mr. Ito, one of the brightest young talents with a limitless future! How can you bow to a stranger?”
In a fit of rage, Tanaka yanked the woman down to the ground and barked, “How dare you disrespect Mr. Wade? Apologize to him right now!”
The woman, suddenly pulled to her knees, winced in pain and eximed, “Koichi, what are you doing?!”
Tanaka raised his hand and pped her, growling, “Stop your nonsense and apologize immediately!”
Stunned by the p, the woman was taken aback, but seeing Koichi’s intense fear, she reluctantly stammered, “Sir, I… I’m sorry, it’s my fault…”
Charlie, uninterested in their antics, remarked coldly, “You two better remember this: I don’t care how you behave in Japan. While you’re in China, keep a low profile. As the saying goes, the raptors can’t cross the river; just what do you think you are?”
Hiroshi Tanaka quickly nodded, pleading, “Mr. Wade, I understand my mistake. From now on, I’ll keep a low profile, and I’ll make sure this foolish woman does too. Please, don’t hold it against us!”
Charlie waved his hand dismissively, “Get out of my sight.”
Hearing those words, Tanaka felt an immense wave of relief wash over him. He hurriedly expressed his gratitude, “Thank you, Mr. Wade! We’re leaving right now…”
With that, he sprang to his feet and dashed for the exit. Just then, Charlie remembered something and called out, “Wait a moment!”
Tanaka froze in shock, nervously asking, “Mr. Charlie, what else do you need?”
Charlie replied nonchntly, “I have a question for you, and I expect an honest answer.”
“Absolutely!” Tanaka nodded vigorously, “You can count on me to tell you everything!”
Charlie’s voice turned icy as he inquired, “How is your eldestdy doing these days?”
