Don't interfere with Skylark Entertainment's issues
Wu Jingcheng frowned and seemed to have sensed something, so he covered the speaker and turned to his assistant. "Where's Hong?"2
The assistant replied, "I don't know where Young Master Hong went. We contacted him earlier, but his phone is turned off…"
"What…?"
Wu Jingcheng's expression instantly shifted. As the boss of Hongxing Gang, he instantly understood the caller's intention. Wu Hong was most likely in someone else's hands now…
"What do you want?"
A trace of fury was evident in Wu Jingcheng's voice as he picked up the phone again.
"Heh… Wu Jingcheng… I currently have your son, Wu Hong… I hope…"
Before Qin Yan could finish speaking, a tragic shout was heard from behind her, startling even Qin Yan.
"Ah… stop hitting me… AH… Save me… Dad, hurry and save me! Fm about to die… Ahhh…"
Currently, Wu Hong was staring at Qin Yan with infatuation, but wave after wave of blood-curdling screeches kept escaping his mouth.
"Hong…!"
Wu Jingcheng recognized Wu Hong's voice instantly.
Wu Jingcheng understood Wu Hong very well since he was Wu Hong's father after all, and like father, like son. Wu Hong possessed a stalwart personality and could be considered a staunch man with an iron backbone. However, his precious son was producing such heart-wrenching screams at the moment, making it evident that his son was going through substantial torture.
"If anything happens to my son, I'll make you pay for it!" Wu Jingcheng coldly shouted with fury.
Qin Yan chuckled. "Wu Jingcheng, you should be knowing that tomorrow is the auction of Starlight Entertainment. I am now coveting Starlight Entertainment. You might be knowing that Skylark Entertainment is my biggest competitor. I hope you won't ask for trouble on your own and meddle in other people's business… You understand me, right?"
"Dad… hurry and save me… Agree to her demands quickly… I can't bear it anymore… Dad, agree to anything this woman says! Or else… you'll lose me… Dad…" Wu Hong's yells turned more miserable on the other end of the phone. His acting skills were rather contagious indeed.
Dipping five and Slaying Seven looked at Wu Hong with indescribable expressions, speechless.
Not too long ago, Wu Hong viewed death as a method of returning home and even boldly declared: "Keep dreaming if you want to use me and threaten my dad! I won't help you achieve your wishes even if I have to die!!!" In the blink of an eye, he was slapping his own face swollen…
"You…" Wu Jingcheng gritted his teeth but nodded at last. "Fine! I'll agree to stay out of Skylark Entertainment's business. Skylark Entertainment will have zero connections with Hongxing Gang from now on…
"Also, my wife and children shouldn't be punished for my actions. I hope you will stop harming my son. Otherwise… you know Hongxing Gang's background. I have no problem agreeing to your demands, but if any accidents occur to my son, your whole family will be buried in retaliation!"
"Heh… Wu Jingcheng, I'm uninterested in your son. As long as you cooperate obediently, I can guarantee your son's safety," Qin Yan uttered.
Qin Yan hung up immediately.
"Brother, nice acting skills! You're as talented as expected!" Dipping Five gave Wu Hong a thumbs up with immense respect. "Now that the matter has been resolved, you can leave."
Wu Hong was startled and frantically shook his head. "I won't leave!"
"Damn, I've never seen anyone like you…" Dipping Five was baffled. He won't leave even after being released?
"How could you?! You can't act like this! Use me then turn your back on me like you don't know me! No, I absolutely won't leave! I'll stay right here and won't go anywhere else!" Wu Hong looked at Qin Yan fearlessly.
Qin Yan: "…"
I feel like… there's something wrong with his lines…?
"Alright, fine, as you wish. You can stay here for now if you want," Qin Yan said after mulling it over for a moment.
If Wu Hong returned now, Wu Jingcheng might renege on his promise, so it would be better to keep Wu Hong here for now and send him home after the matter was completely resolved. Atleast till the auction ends and she acquires Starlight Entertainment.

At the Starlight Entertainment, inside the lounge:
"Brother Lingchen, Brother Lingchen! I'm telling you, that girl was simply awesome! She had the brilliance of the sun and moon draped over her and she rode on a trail of rainbow-colored auspicious clouds to save me in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses! She dazed everyone with how handsome she was! Shen Sisi and those tall and stocky thugs were all beaten black and blue!" Gong Tianhao provided Ji Lingchen with an animated description as he was sitting on the sofa.
Ji Lingchen chuckled. "Really?"
"Really! Of course! She was super handsome! Its such a pity you didn't see it yourself, but only I could've seen this kind of scene, of course!" Gong Tianhao said, drunk on his own story.
At that moment, Fang Wen walked out of the break room with a cup of water in hand.
Gong Tianhao leaped towards Fang Wen at once. "Blockhead, I'm telling you! Do you know what happened that day? You absolutely can't imagine it, but that girl had the brilliance of the sun and moon draped over her and she rode on a trail of rainbow-colored auspicious clouds to save me in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses! She simply…"
Fang Wen expressionlessly glanced at the excited Gong Tianhao, "Shut up. You've told me 800 times already."
Gong Tianhao's nose nearly touched the sky from how upturned it was. "Hmph! Jealous! I think you're just jealous!!!"
Fang Wen remained aloof and didn't say anything.
At that moment, Jiang Xun opened the door and entered.
Gong Tianhao immediately abandoned Fang Wen and fluttered toward Jiang Xun like a butterfly. "Jiang Jiang! I'm telling you, the atmosphere was about to explode back then. A millisecond more and your young master, I, would've had his belt stripped off by those hoodlums. However, quick as a wink, the girl had the brilliance of the sun and moon draped over her and she rode on a trail of rainbow-colored auspicious clouds…"
These past few days, every time Gong Tianhao saw someone, he would repeat how the girl "heroically saved the damsel in distress" back then, and no one was exempt.
From Ji Lingchen to Fang Wen, from Jiang Xun to Fei Yang, and from Xiao-Qing to Dong Zai, they all wished nothing more than to sew Gong Tianhao's lips shut from their annoyance.
Fei Yang was sitting in front of the long table processing documents. His expression was serious as he reflected, "I don't understand who the lady was and why did she help Tianhao. Her motives are suspicious."
Ji Lingchen's eyes glinted.
Even Fei Yang realized it, so Ji Lingchen was also aware, of course.
Gong Tianhao was unconcerned. "The two people who came back with that girl were super fearsome! They're simply martial arts experts! I've never seen people like them outside of movies; they could defeat ten people single-handedly easy-peasy!"
Fei Yang sighed. "Even if the lady came with helpers, our opponents aren't minor street delinquents; it's Hongxing Gang! After suffering such a large grievance, Shen Sisi absolutely won't take things lying down. Hongxing Gang is probably aware of this matter already…"
Gong Tianhao still was unconcerned. His expression was essentially that of a lovestruck teenage girl who blindly admired and trusted her boyfriend.
He picked up a bag of chips and went to lie on the sofa without any worries, acting rather carelessly.
Ji Lingchen, Fang Wen, and Jiang Xun met each other's eyes, exasperated.
The lounge door was forcibly pushed open with a bang, and a woman dressed like an assistant was standing at the door with a displeased expression.
The woman arrogantly swept her eyes over the occupants of the room before landing on Ji Lingchen, "Why are you still here chatting and acting so free?! Don't you have work to do? Tomorrow is the auction. Remember to pay tribute to Shao Heng, and start preparing now!"
The female assistant's belittling words lit firecrackers instantly.
Gong Tianhao tossed his chips to the side and leaped up. "Damn, who the fuck are you speaking to? How dare a nobody like you talk to us like this?! Do you want to die?"
This group of people had acted rather docilely recently; even Gong Tianhao restrained his temper quite a bit until now.
This female assistant thought things would proceed the same as before, so she didn't expect Gong Tianhao to suddenly fly off the handle. She jolted in fright and reflexively cowered back.
However, she soon straightened up and derisively glanced at them before haughtily saying, "Of course I'm not a nobody. You have to know our Shao Heng isn't someone you can offend!
"As for who you are? Heh, you're merely a group of undesirable stray dogs! What do you have to brag about? Tomorrow after Skylark buys Starlight Entertainment, you will have to respect our artists just as you do to god! Hmmmph!"
