Chapter 499: Chapter 499: Dizzying

Xu Ke’s words made Xu Longzhen pause for a moment. Perhaps Xu Longzhen’s dumbfounded expression was too obvious, Xu Ke’s face showed a shocked expression, as if he couldn’t believe it, "Are you not here to thank me but to pick a fight? Is doing good deeds these days really asking for trouble?"

No one had ever spoken to Xu Longzhen like that before; for a moment, Xu Longzhen found himself stumped by Xu Ke’s words.

Seeing that Xu Longzhen could not come up with a response, the assistant behind him sighed helplessly and took over the conversation.

"One thing has nothing to do with another. The reason we’re here today is about your assault accusation. What happened afterwards has nothing to do with today’s agenda," the assistant said, adjusting the glasses on his nose.

"But it’s clearly the same thing. How can you split it into two? An event consists of a cause, process, and result. You cut off the head and tail and only look at the middle; even then, you only see the first half and come to me, the so-called party involved, to settle accounts. Isn’t that a bit far-fetched?" Xu Ke crossed one leg over the other and looked at Xu Longzhen and the assistant with an indescribable expression.

Though Xu Ke hadn’t said anything excessively, the two people there couldn’t help but feel their faces grow hot.

"I wonder what this complete story looks like according to you?" Xu Longzhen scratched his face awkwardly, pretending to be calm as he looked at Xu Ke. Yet his words made the assistant abruptly close his eyes, his breathing suddenly heavier. If it weren’t for the wrong time and place, he would have loved to smack his own head.

The moment Xu Longzhen spoke, it was blatant that he hadn’t gotten the situation straight before coming to cause trouble. It was utterly embarrassing.
