I'm not Going to Threaten You

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I can't do that yet," Stanford said. "You probably already know this, but Professor Lin's research has only neared the final stage. It's not actually completed yet. You and Mr. Xiang will have to stay in America until we complete everything!"

"What? That was not the deal!" Chen Xiaobei spat. "I suggest you don't go back on your words!"

"Hehe! Mr. Chen really has quite the sense of humour! America is a powerful country and we are not afraid of warring. I am going back on my words indeed. Now what are you going to do about that?"

Stanford looked at Chen Xiaobei unambiguously.

This was exactly like that old proverb that said: if one's face is thick enough, one can achieve everything in this world!

He told Chen Xiaobei in the face that he had backtracked on the deal! As if that wasn't enough, he even taunted Chen Xiaobei! It was rare that a person's face could reach such a degree of thickness!
