"How could you guys stop such an important guest?" The lazy Huang Rong ignored Lian Jiudong's question and scolded the security guards with feigned displeasure.
The security personnel immediately looked terrified. They genuinely thought they had offended a big shot and didn't know what to do.
"Mr. Huang, the guest doesn't have a membership card for the club. According to regulations, no one is allowed to enter without a membership card," a security guard said with difficulty.
"Oh? Is that so? This is none of your business."
"Yes, sir!" The security personnel breathed a sigh of relief. They left immediately, not wanting to stay a moment longer.
Huang Rong deliberately ignored Zhang Guodong, his disdain only growing stronger. These days, have people's heads been slammed in a door? Don't they even know their own worth before coming to demand justice? Justice? Heh, what's that worth these days?
Huang Rong had just received a call from Li Yun, which prompted him to want to see what Zhang Guodong, this man who wanted to get something out of him, was like. But upon seeing him, he was greatly disappointed. Zhang Guodong's appearance was average; aside from his demeanor, he had nothing particularly outstanding about him.
Zhang Guodong had a gloomy face, which made Zhuo Rong very unhappy.
"You are Huang Rong?" Zhang Guodong asked again.
"Who do you think you are, daring to cause trouble at the Imperial City Club?! Shouting and yelling like that!" Huang Rong frowned, seemingly annoyed. The fat manager beside him, quick to read the situation, immediately jumped out, pointing at Zhang Guodong's face and yelling, "You guys, tie this guy up and wait for the police to arrive!"
The chubby manager had been furious with Huang Rong. He had no other outlet for his anger. Seeing that Huang Rong disliked him, he suddenly found a scapegoat, cursing inwardly, "Doesn't he know his place? Why isn't Li Ping here yet? Does he want to quit being the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau?"
"Crack! Ah!"
Zhang Guodong snorted, then swiftly extended his two thumbs and pinched them in mid-air. With a crack and a scream, the fat manager's index finger was bent 180 degrees and snapped off right before his eyes by Zhang Guodong.
"Too noisy! Bang!" Zhang Guodong said calmly.
With another slap, the fat manager was knocked unconscious, and the noise finally stopped.
Zhang Guodong's seemingly casual violence, coupled with its devastating impact, startled Huang Rong, who was standing nearby. Huang Rong instinctively tried to back away to maintain his distance. He truly hadn't expected this man to actually dare to start a fight at the Imperial City Club. In reality, Huang Rong was overconfident; Zhang Guodong was someone who could disregard the rules. Having already made his move, he naturally wouldn't mind doing it again.
"Take me upstairs to find Liu Zhengyuan. Don't make any moves, or you'll regret it!" Zhang Guodong coldly glanced at Huang Rong and said.
Huang Rongcai calmed down, intending to warn Zhang Guodong, but the words he was about to say were swallowed back by Zhang Guodong's cold, murderous gaze. An immense pressure descended upon him, like an illusion, yet also feeling real. That one look from Zhang Guodong made him feel as if his body no longer belonged to him.
Unwittingly, Huang Rong followed Zhang Guodong upstairs. Several security personnel accompanied them; it was clear they were uneasy about having General Manager Huang alone with Zhang Guodong. Onlookers assumed the general manager had agreed, thinking this young man, Zhang Guodong, was quite something, actually forcing General Manager Huang to personally lead the way. In reality, Huang Rong had unspeakable grievances and was filled with fear and unease.
This man's single glance terrified him. He mentioned Liu Zhengyuan—who was he? There was only one person upstairs who had caused this trouble: Master Liu, the man Wu Jianzhong had mentioned!
This greatly shocked him.
He had just witnessed the cunning of Liu Zhengyuan, who swindled and recruited servants, and he never expected that the visitor would directly ask to see Liu Zhengyuan by name. He was momentarily surprised and uncertain.
The pressure only disappeared once they entered the elevator. Huang Rong felt as if she had been pulled out of water, and she broke out in a sweat, soaking her underwear.
"Who exactly are you? Master Liu has already left. Just tell me what you want!" As soon as the pressure disappeared, Huang Rong subconsciously kept a few steps away from Zhang Guodong, and then said sternly.
Huang Rong was intimidated by Zhang Guodong's mere gaze. If word got out, he would never be able to hold his head high in the industry.
He thought it might have been a hallucination. However, Zhang Guodong might have been a soldier, and the kind who had killed people, so his eyes were filled with murderous intent, which caused him to lose his composure for a moment.
Zhang Guodong turned around and said coldly, "You can't make the decision. The only thing you can do is hand over that fat manager and the eight security guards who blocked the rescue. You'll know what to do with them. If anything happens to that girl, you'll be executed!"
"Where did Liu Zhengyuan go!" Zhang Guodong emphasized this question.
"Damn, still so arrogant?" Huang Rong had never been ignored like this before, and he sneered repeatedly, "I can't make the decision? Very well, I've never seen someone this powerful before! Buried with you? Let's see who dies first!"
"Slap!" Zhang Guodong reached out and slapped Huang Rong across the face. The five red fingers left a mark on Huang Rong's cheek, stunning everyone. Even the security guards behind him couldn't stop him in time.
"Ah! Hit him! Hit him to death!" After a long pause, Huang Rong suddenly roared wildly, his face contorted with shame and rage. Even the most cunning and scheming person cannot remain calm under the weight of personal pain. Zhang Guodong's slap hurt more than if he had lost a piece of flesh.
"Don't let him get away, surround him!" Upon hearing General Manager Huang's command, several security personnel rushed forward.
But even the most skilled mortal could not compare to Zhang Guodong. In almost a single exchange, Zhang Guodong had taken them all down, leaving only groans on the ground.
"What do you want?!" Zhang Guodong stood still, glancing at Huang Rong, who instinctively took a few steps back, somewhat panicked. Huang Rong was anxious; he had been far too careless. How could he have brought in such a seemingly desperate fellow? And he had fewer men with him!
Just then, another elevator opened with a "ding-dong" sound, and a dozen or so armed police officers poured out.
"Stop! Don't move!"
With more than a dozen gun barrels pointed at Zhang Guodong, Huang Rong regained his sense of security and quickly retreated into the police ranks.
Li Ping arrived slightly late. He hesitated for a moment after receiving the call from the chubby manager. It was hard to believe that anyone would dare cause trouble at the Royal City Club, and almost result in eight deaths!
In ordinary entertainment venues, Li Ping would have no qualms, but the Imperial City Club was far too sensitive. Zhang Guodong had taken down eight people and seriously injured them in one fell swoop, and when he came back, Li Ping became suspicious, fearing that he had offended a powerful figure.
Upon seeing this, he gasped in shock. Huang Rong's face was swollen, and the finger marks were clearly visible. His gaze towards Zhang Guodong became even more wary. Who was this young man? He had actually beaten up Vice Minister Huang's youngest son.
"Keep him under my watch, beat up the crowd, and take him back to Xu for interrogation!" Li Ping gritted his teeth, pointed at Zhang Guodong, and his men immediately surrounded him, preparing to handcuff Zhang Guodong.
Zhang Guodong, however, was disdainful. He glanced at Huang Rong without changing his expression and said, "Li Yun is right. You are a bastard!"
"Wait!" Huang Rong's expression changed, and he called out, "Who are you? How do you know Li Yun?"
