Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

As soon as he said that, Liu Jianguo on the other side got so angry that he started blowing his beard and glaring at him.

The old man took two steps to the open space in the center of the private room and immediately assumed a standard fighting stance.

"Stop talking nonsense. Back when I was capturing people in the primeval forests of the south, you were still wearing open-crotch pants."

"If you can beat me to a pulp today, my daughter will be devoted to you."

Chen Yang smiled and took off his dark gray suit jacket.

Liu Yifei quickly reached out and took it, holding it tightly in her arms, her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

Chen Yang walked to the center of the open space, without even setting up a flower stand, and just stood there casually, waving at Liu Jianguo.

Liu Jianguo didn't hold back. He stomped his leather shoes on the carpet and pounced on the carpet like a tiger descending a mountain.

As a former reconnaissance soldier, this old man, though over fifty, possessed a starting speed and explosiveness that surpassed even the young coaches in gyms.

A straight punch was aimed directly at Chen Yang's face, the wind from the punch whistling through the air.

Chen Yang remained calm, tilting his head to the left to easily dodge the punch.

Liu Jianguo missed his punch, then turned around and kicked out with a powerful gust of wind, sweeping across Chen Yang's lower body.

This is called top and bottom lane coordination; they played very methodically.

Chen Yang bent his knees slightly and raised his leg to block, the impact of flesh and bone producing a muffled thud.

The two then began their fight in the spacious private room.

The room was very quiet; even the sound of the air conditioner was drowned out by the sounds of fists and kicks.

The Wang family of three hid across the round table, all craning their necks to watch the spectacle. Wang Yu especially wished that Liu Jianguo could twist Chen Yang's head off with a single punch.

But the more Liu Jianguo looked at it, the clearer he became about the gap between the two.

His military boxing style emphasizes speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness, with every move aimed at vital points. He could easily handle three to five strong men.

But hitting this young man today felt like punching cotton – utterly ineffective.

No matter how much force he exerted or how he changed his moves, Chen Yang could easily neutralize them.

With the advanced combat proficiency skill rewarded by the system, Chen Yang found this attack to be a piece of cake.

During the fight, he deliberately suppressed his system-enhanced physique, not daring to use even 10% of his power.

He knew this was his future father-in-law, and he couldn't just kick him into the hospital; otherwise, his chances of getting a wife would be completely ruined.

So he only defended and didn't attack, moving his feet very lightly and steadily receiving every move Liu Jianguo made, while also giving the old man plenty of face, allowing him to have a good fight.

The two exchanged blows for about thirty rounds, and Liu Jianguo's forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat, and his breathing became heavy.

Chen Yang figured that was about enough; if they kept going, the old man would lose face.

He stumbled, deliberately leaving the left side of the defense open.

Liu Jianguo was, after all, an experienced veteran, and he seized this fleeting opportunity very well.

The old man lunged forward, his two thick arms like iron clamps, grabbing Chen Yang's left wrist and shoulder.

This is a classic joint lock technique in military boxing.

Liu Jianguo used his waist strength, intending to give Chen Yang a solid over-the-shoulder throw.

"Kid, let's see where you run this time!"

Liu Jianguo shouted loudly, putting all his strength into his arms.

Logically speaking, this blow should have knocked over not only a person, but even a calf.

But when Liu Jianguo pulled, Chen Yang's feet seemed to be rooted to the ground, without even wobbling.

He gritted his teeth and pulled a second time, his leather shoes leaving a dent in the carpet.

Chen Yang remained firmly in place.

Liu Jianguo felt that the arm in his hand did not feel like human flesh at all; it was as hard as a steel bar cast into the ground.

In fact, the moment Chen Yang was captured, he immediately activated the basic Golden Bell Iron Shirt skill, which was a reward from the system.

His muscles immediately tensed up like an iron plate. Forget about shoulder throws, you might not even be able to break them with a hammer now.

Liu Jianguo's face turned red from holding back, but he finally admitted defeat and let go of her hand.

The old man took two steps back, his chest heaving violently, and let out a long breath.

Seeing that Chen Yang hadn't even taken a deep breath, he suddenly burst into hearty laughter.

"Good lad, you've really got it. Your hard qigong is really impressive. I'm completely convinced."

Liu Jianguo walked forward with a smile and patted Chen Yang's shoulder heavily with his broad hand.

The old man looked at Chen Yang with increasing fondness the more he looked at him.

Rich, handsome, knowledgeable in medicine, and incredibly skilled in martial arts—you couldn't find a son-in-law like that even with a lantern.

The atmosphere in the private room immediately eased, and the previous tension completely dissipated.

Liu Yifei's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

Holding her silk handkerchief, she jogged over in her high heels.

The woman stood in front of Chen Yang, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, and tiptoed to gently wipe his forehead with a handkerchief.

The gesture was incredibly intimate, and her eyes were filled with tender admiration as she looked at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang took the opportunity to put his arm around Liu Yifei's slender waist and said something polite to Liu Jianguo.

"Uncle Liu is still as sharp as ever; I almost couldn't handle those grappling moves just now."

"A sedan chair is carried by people," Chen Yang said beautifully, making the steps perfectly smooth.

Liu Jianguo listened with pleasure, laughed twice, turned around and walked back to the main seat, picked up the Tang suit jacket from the chair and put it back on.

The Wang family of three sitting opposite them looked even worse than if they had swallowed a dead fly.

Wang Yu had been hoping that Liu Jianguo would teach Chen Yang a lesson, but now that he saw the two of them actually getting along, he was so angry that he stomped his feet under the table, but he didn't dare to utter a word because of Chen Yang's fighting prowess.

Wang Fugui's face was also gloomy.

Today's meal has completely humiliated the Wang family; they've been utterly trampled on by a mere brat.

Looking at Liu Jianguo's smug expression, Wang Fugui couldn't suppress the nameless anger in his heart.

He pushed back his chair, stood up abruptly with his greasy, round face, and picked up his briefcase from the table.

"Old Liu, it seems your Liu family has climbed up the social ladder and looks down on our Xiaoyu."

"In that case, I don't think it's necessary to continue with the building materials supply contract that our two companies agreed on before."

This statement is a blatant business threat.

A large part of Liu Jianguo's building materials business relies on the Wang family's import and export channels for sales.

If these two companies really break off relations, Liu Jianguo's company will lose at least several hundred million yuan in profits.

Wang Fugui thought that by using this to intimidate Liu Jianguo, Liu would at least give in.

To everyone's surprise, Liu Jianguo picked up the purple clay cup, blew on the tea leaves floating on it, took a sip of water, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"Whatever. Since we have different paths, let's not work together. Business is about mutual consent, and I won't force you."

Liu Jianguo didn't even glance at Wang Fugui, his tone completely indifferent.

Wang Fugui was speechless, his chubby face turning a deep purplish-red, and he turned away in a fit of rage.

He stared intently at Chen Yang, who was standing beside him, his tone icy.

"Young man, don't think you're so great just because you know a little martial arts."

"Jiangcheng is a very deep place; not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can make it big."

"We, the Wang family, will remember this debt. You'd better be careful when you go out in the future."

Chen Yang put his arm around Liu Yifei's waist, chuckled, and didn't take the harmless threat to heart at all.

Seeing that he couldn't scare anyone, Wang Fugui snorted coldly, took his wife and son, and slammed the door as he walked out.

The heavy mahogany door was slammed shut with a loud clang.

With all the eyesores gone, the private room was finally quiet.

Liu Jianguo pointed to the empty seat from before, gesturing for the two young men to sit down and talk.

Chen Yang pulled out a chair and let Liu Yifei sit down first before sitting down next to her.

Liu Jianguo looked at Chen Yang, tapped his fingers twice on the solid wood table, and his tone became serious.

"Wang Fugui is a smiling tiger; he loves to do dirty tricks behind people's backs."

"He wasn't just saying that casually. Be careful during this time. If you encounter any problems you can't solve, give me a call."

Liu Jianguo has now completely accepted Chen Yang and is protecting him as if he were family.

Chen Yang picked up the teapot and refilled the empty cup in front of Liu Jianguo with hot water.

"Don't worry, Uncle Liu. I don't even consider the Wang family a threat. They can't cause any trouble."

Liu Jianguo nodded in satisfaction, picked up his cup and took a sip of water. The room was quiet for a few seconds.

The old man put down his water glass, leaned forward, and stared intently at Chen Yang.

"Alright, everyone's gone. Let's talk about something serious, just the two of us."

"You just told me that you're now working as a private consultant for Yang Mi of the Xingchen Group?"

Liu Jianguo lowered his voice, his tone carrying a hint of probing.

Chen Yang nodded and agreed, following the lead.

"Yes, Uncle Liu, I've only been working here for a few days and I'm still getting used to it."

Liu Jianguo stroked his chin, squinted at Chen Yang, and suddenly brought up the topic.

"Is the Yang Mi you mentioned the powerful female CEO of Xingchen Group who's been making headlines in business circles lately?"
