Rebirth: Spoiling the Obsessive Film Emperor

Yin Chengjue’s past life was a complete joke.

The star he personally groomed not only betrayed him but twisted the knife when his company was on the brink of collapse.

Reborn, he vowed ...

Chapter 134 He Woke Up

Because it was a video, the thugs saw Yin Chengjue's expressionless face and confirmed that he really didn't care much about this minor celebrity named Rong Yu.

Little did they know, Yin Chengjue had already sped to the outside of the abandoned toy factory. Not wanting to alert them, he didn't drive in but parked in a secluded spot.

Huayun also arranged for someone to drive over with the car containing the money, and they had already agreed to meet in ten minutes.

Yin Chengjue sat in the back seat of the car, pretending that he was just riding in the car.

"Is this all you're showing me? He's dead?" Yin Chengjue said, feigning complete indifference.

"He's just been drugged a little too much and is still sleeping. But if you don't deliver the money as we demand, he won't just be taking a short nap; he'll suffer from permanent insomnia," the kidnapper sneered.

Yin Chengjue maintained his straight face and said, "Oh."

Seeing that he still showed no sign of being in a hurry, the kidnapper became impatient: "I've seen the person, what else do you want?!"

Yin Chengjue: "I don't want anything, it just takes a little time to withdraw the 50 million in cash. You shouldn't mind that little bit of time, right?"

Kidnapper: "Enough talk! If you don't bring the money by this afternoon, we'll kill you!"

After saying that, the other end of the video call ended.

Yin Chengjue's face visibly darkened.

The video only captured Rong Yu and didn't show anyone else. Yin Chengjue couldn't confirm how many people were inside, so he didn't dare to force his way in.

The feeling of having to calm down and wait was unbearable. Yin Chengjue felt that he might lose control at any moment and rush in to kill all those who dared to kidnap Rong Yu.

The people from Huayun arrived quickly in their car, and they also brought a miniature earphone that could be attached to the earlobe, making it look like an earring.

After turning on the headphones, Wei Shu's voice quickly reached Yin Chengjue's ears.

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

"How is he now? Can you see him?" Yin Chengjue quickly asked about Rong Yu's current situation.

Wei Shu: "Sure, I've already taken control of the camera on the phone you were just video chatting with, and they've conveniently placed that phone in a spot where they can see Rong Yu perfectly!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Chengjue was still unable to completely relax.

Normally, after using a phone, shouldn't you put it in your pocket or lay it flat on a table? Why is the camera still pointed at Rong Yu?

A possibility began to surface in Yin Chengjue's mind.

Yin Chengjue: "They are taking pictures or videos of Rong Yu right now!"

Guard: "Yes, yes! That's what I thought too! I saw the camera was constantly circling around Xiaoyu, they must be recording, but they already video chatted with you, why are they recording again?"

Yin Chengjue had already gotten into the car loaded with cash and said, "I'll go in and take a look first."

Garrison Commander: "Wait! Don't panic! Something's happened!"

Yin Chengjue: "Speak quickly!"

Guard: "Xiao Yu is awake!"

Rong Yu never expected that her momentary carelessness would allow someone to exploit her weaknesses.

When the cloth smeared with the drug was placed over his nose, Rong Yu's first reaction was to hold his breath, but he still inhaled some. The drug was so potent that he felt weak in his limbs and was thrown into the van with his head covered.

The car jolted and bounced, breaking Rong Yu's last bit of resolve, and she was completely pulled into a coma by the effects of the drug.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a place that looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a long time, and even the air he breathed was filled with a strong, lingering smell of decay.

Rong Yu turned her gaze away from her surroundings and looked down at her body, only to find that she was currently tied to a chair with ropes and her mouth was taped shut.

Standing in front of him were more than a dozen people, all tall and muscular, with blue tattoos covering their bodies, and various large and small knife scars.

Some people have scars that even run across their faces, and there are traces of stitches on the scars.

Upon noticing that Rong Yu had woken up, some people revealed lewd and sinister smiles, their faces contorted with grotesque expressions.

"Hey, little beauty, you're awake! What are we waiting for? Let's get started." A man with a scar on his face walked up, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

Another person held up a mobile phone, pointed it in his direction, and then placed it on an old toy to secure it.

Rong Yu listened quietly to their conversation while untying the ropes binding her hands.

The scarred man gestured to the person next to him, and someone stepped forward and ripped the tape off Rong Yu's mouth.

The tape had been stuck on for too long and too tightly, and the person tore it off without any mercy, tearing Rong Yu's lips. Blood oozed from the torn lips and quickly flowed down the corners of Rong Yu's mouth.

Rong Yu's lips became even redder as a result.

"Hmm, just like Young Master Chang said, she's a stunning beauty. It's a pity she's a man. I have no interest in that kind of thing. Whoever is interested can go for it." The scarred man looked Rong Yu up and down and commented.

"Hehehe, then we'll gladly accept your offer, brother." Some men rubbed their hands together and chimed in.

"Hey, before you start, inject this into him." Scarface said, taking out a small bottle and a syringe. He skillfully loaded the needle, then inserted it into the plastic cap and extracted the clear liquid inside.

The others chuckled knowingly: "Boss, you're really something."

The scarred man laughed and said, "This is a good thing. He got a good deal, but considering how much money he can get for it, this little thing is nothing. Consider it a gift to him."

The man holding the phone and recording said, "Boss, if we let him get this thing in, the video he records will definitely satisfy Young Master Chang even more."

The scarred man said smugly, "When have I ever failed to satisfy my clients? This is just a small matter."

Rong Yu astutely grasped the key point: "Young Master Chang? Chang Yue?"

"Tsk tsk, you guessed wrong. It's Young Master Chang, Chang Fengyuan, not his good-for-nothing spoiled brat brother," the scarred man said.

"Chang Fengyuan? Heh."

Rong Yu suddenly smiled: "Chang Fengyuan? Just an illegitimate son. I heard that he was brought back by Old Master Chang not long ago, causing chaos in the family. In the end, only Old Master Chang recognized this son as the eldest son. In the minds of others, Young Master Chang is still Chang Yue."

Rong Yu looked at the scarred man: "I don't remember ever provoking Chang Fengyuan. Surely it wasn't to avenge Chang Yue?"

The scarred man snorted, "We don't care about any of that. Since Chang Fengyuan told us to teach you a lesson, we'll naturally do what we're paid to do. Just get started."

Several people approached Rong Yu in response. One of them took the syringe handed to him by the scarred man, walked to Rong Yu's side, and tried to tear open his sleeve to inject the needle into his arm.

Just then, a hand suddenly reached out, grabbed the man's wrist, and twisted it!

"Ah!" The first person to strike let out a painful scream!

Amidst the wails, Rong Yu stood up from the chair, snatched the needle from the man's hand with her free hand, and without hesitation, plunged it into the back of his neck, quickly injecting the liquid into the man's body.

"Since it's such a good thing, let's enjoy it together first." Rong Yu's voice was clear and pleasant, but it sounded chilling to the man who had been injected.

Ignoring the pain in the back of his neck, he tried to kick Rong Yu away, but heard a soft "thud" from the back of his neck.

Rong Yu held the syringe that had already been injected with liquid in her hand and waved it in front of him with a smile.

Then the man was horrified to discover that the syringe was empty!

Rong Yu kicked the man away, threw the syringe aside, grabbed a chair from the side, and hurled it at the four or five people who rushed up cursing at her!

He hit it with such accuracy that the people rushing towards him had no chance to dodge and crashed straight into him, eliciting another round of cries of pain.

The kidnappers, who were standing quite far apart, finally realized that a fight had broken out, and that their man was being overpowered by the person who had just recovered from the effects of the drug!

The scarred man had been chatting and smoking with the man who was recording when he turned around and saw his men lying dead. His anger was palpable: "A bunch of useless trash! They can't even beat an actor!"

People standing at a distance also rushed up angrily, holding all sorts of iron pipes. Because of their numbers, they quickly surrounded Rong Yu.

"Kid! You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! We'll cripple you!" the scarred man threatened viciously, already holding a large machete in his hand.

Rong Yu pressed her lips together, her face grim, her fists clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.

He had no weapons.

He knew he wasn't up to the task of facing so many armed men unarmed.

Moreover, the situation is still not fully understood.

Instead of immediately smashing the steel pipes on Rong Yu, the kidnappers simply surrounded him, staring at him with malevolent eyes, as if they might beat him into a bloody pulp at any moment.

Upon seeing this, Rong Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and she vaguely guessed what was going on.

"If you cripple me, the money you're about to get will be gone, right?" Rong Yu scoffed. "I should be quite valuable, right? If you get that money, you can definitely squander it for a long time. But if you hurt me, all the hard work you've done today will be for nothing."

The scarred man narrowed his eyes: "Kid, you really think we wouldn't dare do anything to you?"

Rong Yu: "No, I believe you all really want to beat me to my knees and beg for mercy right now, but more than that, you want to get your money."

Rong Yu extended her hand to the scarred man and said with a smile, "I don't care who you called to ask for money just now. Now give me your phone, and I'll dial another number. You can get another payment. You name your price, how about it?"
