Chapter 33
"Do you have anything else to say?" Han Mingjun slowly picked up the camera and unceremoniously pressed the format button.
Long Jiu Mo glared at him resentfully, without saying a word.
"Hey kid, still not convinced?" Han Mingjun fiddled with his camera and sneered, "Using such underhanded tactics, you think you're so great, huh?"
Long Jiu Mo's gaze grew increasingly ruthless.
Han Mingjun shook his head and said, "Kid, I've been invincible since I was a kid. I've dealt with all kinds of troublemakers. You're still too green."
In the corner, Yu Mufeng covered his face and choked out, "I was wrong, I'm sorry."
"You realized you were wrong so quickly?" Han Mingjun chuckled, jumping onto the table and sitting there without any regard for appearances. "But bad kids need to be punished, so what do you think... we should do?"
"I'm willing to pay compensation." Yu Mufeng staggered to his feet.
"Money?" Han Mingjun sneered. "Just as I thought, you're a kid. All you want to do when things go wrong is settle things with money. How much can you afford?"
"I...I..."
"Whose child are you? Why have I never heard of the surname Yu in Haicheng?"
Yu Mufeng was ashamed. "I..."
"Kid, is your brain filled with mush? Lu Nan is Cheng Xiangbei's precious treasure, and the Cheng family has no shortage of money."
"Impossible! Xiang Bei's family is struggling financially!"
Han Mingjun raised an eyebrow; this kid was hopelessly stupid. "Alright, I won't waste my breath on you. How about this, we'll give them a taste of their own medicine?"
Long and the other exchanged a glance, their ominous premonition growing stronger. "What are you going to do?!"
"What are you doing?" Han Mingjun raised his camera to examine it. "Doing what you did to Lu Nan."
Long Jiu Mo and Yu Mu Feng hurriedly retreated, but they were no match for Han Ming Jun, and were quickly bound like dumplings. Moreover, Han Ming Jun pulled a dagger from the box brought by the trainer. "This thing is too amateurish, just make do with it!"
After saying that, he stylishly twirled his knife a few times, first cutting Long Jiu Mo's clothes into strips. "How about it? Not bad, right?"
"Let me go!" Long Jiu Mo struggled.
"Let you go? Give me a reason!"
"I...I..." All the viciousness he had shown when bullying Lu Nan was gone, and Long Jiu Mo's teeth were grinding together.
"Actually, I don't think there's much point in relationships between men." Han Mingjun brandished the dagger in his hand and continued, "Since you're both so interested in men, I'll grant your wish!"
"What are you trying to do?!"
Han Mingjun shrugged and lifted the burly man, who had fainted from the pain in the corner, over with one hand. He then tossed Yu Mufeng next to them. "Hmm, this position is a bit unnatural." He kicked Yu Mufeng. "Stick your butt out."
Yu Mufeng shook his head. "You beast!"
"I didn't tell you to do it for real!" Seeing that he didn't move, Han Mingjun had no choice but to force him down onto Long Jiu Mo's genitals. Only after arranging the three of them in a standard 3P position did Han Mingjun clapp his hands in satisfaction, raising his camera to take pictures from the left and right. "Not bad, not bad!"
"Help, help me!" Da Han fainted from the pain and then woke up, his face pale and his forehead covered in cold sweat.
"Hang in there, just two more shots." He lifted his foot and helped the three of them change their poses, and then another burst of flashes.
"Han Mingjun!" The door was pushed open violently, and Xu Zhao appeared with a furious expression.
"Hey? Secretary Xu?" Han Mingjun turned his head and saw his secretary's eyebrows furrowed in anger. He asked with concern, "What brings you here?"
"Don't play dumb with me!" Xu Zhao said angrily, "Weren't you having a meal at the guesthouse? How did you end up here?"
"Something came up, hehe!" He quickly feigned innocence.
"Something came up?" Xu Zhao sneered. "Tell me what's going on with these soldiers outside? It's one thing to skip a proper meal, but they've actually come out to fight and cause trouble! Do they know how serious the consequences will be?!"
Han Mingjun looked around, pretending not to hear.
"Han Mingjun!" Xu Zhao angrily stepped forward and grabbed him. "Come back with me right now! What if someone reports us?"
"Who dares to sue?" He held the camera without moving.
"Hurry up!" he shouted, pulling hard.
The two were arguing when two more people came in.
Han Mingjun was taken aback. "Xiao Lang?"
Han Minglang nodded and asked with concern, "Are Xiang Bei and the others alright?"
"It's alright, we should be home by now." After saying that, he smiled at Cheng Xiangdong and said, "Xiangdong, you're here too?"
"Yes." Cheng Xiangdong thanked him solemnly. "Thanks a lot this time, brother. You should go back first. I'll take care of things here."
"Hurry up and go!" Xu Zhao tugged at his sleeve forcefully. "Are you worried that we haven't caused enough trouble already?"
"I'd like to see who dares to sue!" Han Mingjun patted Xu Zhao, gesturing for him to look at him. "Look, I'm just wearing ordinary training clothes, there aren't any markings on them."
"That won't do either!"
"Okay, okay." Han Mingjun picked up the camera and said to his younger brother and Cheng Xiangdong, "I'm taking the evidence with me. If you can't settle this, come find me."
"Alright, you should go now!" Han Minglang urged.
"What kind of attitude is that!" Han Mingjun left, feeling hurt.
Cheng Xiangdong looked around the room and called out, "Who is the manager here?"
Someone rushed over, wiping sweat from their brow. "It's me, it's me!"
"Let's take this man to the hospital first," Cheng Xiangdong said, pointing to the burly man groaning as he held his broken wrist.
"Yes, yes." The manager scurried out to call for help.
"Humanity, oh humanity," Han Mingjun sighed.
"Still talking!" Xu Zhao maintained his cold expression. "Did you hit me?"
"When have I ever bullied ordinary citizens?" Han Mingjun raised an eyebrow. "Alright, everyone, let's call it a day!"
"Yes!" A chorus of footsteps followed him out.
Stepping outside the gate, he gave a cold glance, and several pairs of peering eyes immediately withdrew. Before getting into the car, Han Mingjun thought of a question. He stopped and said seriously, "Ahem, let me ask you all, what are you all doing out here today?"
Someone immediately answered loudly:
"walk!"
"Transform food!"
"zipper……"
"Just passing by!"
Seeing that everyone had fully grasped the spirit of the speech, Han Mingjun nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, let's go back and continue drinking!"
"Yes!" The car doors slammed shut, and several cars sped away in a line. If it weren't for the clubhouse's exterior walls being smashed to pieces, people would have thought it was all a dream.
After Han Mingjun left, everyone at the club breathed a sigh of relief.
After taking the injured person to the hospital, the manager, sweating profusely, approached Cheng Xiangdong. "Sir, may I ask what happened just now..."
Han Minglang smiled and asked in a friendly tone, "Is this club owned by the Shao family?"
"How did you know?" the manager asked in surprise. Ya Yuan's background was indeed powerful, but it was affiliated with a local businessman; most people wouldn't know who the parent company was.
"Does anyone from the Shao family currently reside in Haicheng?"
"Yes," the manager replied respectfully. "Young Master Xin is here and on his way." He was worried about how to handle such a serious matter.
"After he arrives, tell him to come directly over. My surname is Han."
"Yes, yes." Unable to ascertain his background, the manager bowed and withdrew. Today's events had been exciting enough; who knew who was inside? Perhaps it was best to wait for the young master to take charge! Amen!
After the manager left, Cheng Xiangdong finally had time to check on the two men who had tied up Lu Nan. "Long Jiu?"
"What? You know each other?" Han Minglang jumped onto the table and sat down, just like his brother.
"We're old acquaintances," Cheng Xiangdong sighed. "What grudge do you have against Nannan and Huzi?"
Long Jiu Mo closed his eyes and remained silent.
Cheng Xiangdong didn't press the matter and turned his gaze to another person. "What's your name?"
"Yu Mufeng." Yu Mufeng turned his head to the side.
"A call from the parents."
Yu Mufeng remained silent.
Cheng Xiangdong sneered. "If you know what's good for you, tell me yourself. I don't have that much patience."
Han Minglang jumped off the table and grabbed the other person by the throat. "Hmm?"
In just a few seconds, Yu Mufeng felt a suffocating fear. "I'll talk, I'll talk..."
While waiting for the other party to pick them up, the Shao family arrived.
When Shao Lixin saw the shop smashed like this, his face turned ashen.
"Who did this?!" They actually dared to cause trouble on the Shao family's turf! They must have a death wish!
The manager, trying to be apologetic, whispered, "There's someone waiting for you inside. He said his surname is Han..."
"Han?" Shao Lixin's brow twitched. "Did he say his name?"
The manager shook his head. "No. But the person who smashed up the shop just now was wearing a military uniform."
Shao Lixin gasped. "Do you know who it is?"
"I didn't dare to ask, but he left after Young Master Han inside arrived."
His anger vanished instantly, and Shao Lixin was now hoping the other person wasn't who he thought it was. The manager led the way, until they reached the entrance of Jutao Pavilion. Shao Lixin looked at the door, took a deep breath, and then raised his hand to knock.
"Come in!" A familiar voice came from inside, and Shao Lixin's heart sank immediately.
"Oshin!"
"Third Young Master!" Meeting an acquaintance, there was no need for pleasantries. Shao Lixin shook his head with a wry smile. "How exactly did I offend the Eldest Young Master? Why is he causing such a ruckus at my place?"
"Well, this is a long story." Han Minglang chuckled dryly, pointing at Cheng Xiangdong and saying, "He'll compensate for whatever losses we incur!"
"What's there to compensate for!" Shao Lixin said, "Since the young master didn't even lay out a red carpet to welcome him, let's just smash it up!" He knew he'd get a severe scolding from his brother when he got home. He'd told him countless times that in Haicheng, you couldn't afford to mess with Young Master Han, but for years, the young master had never set foot in his doorstep. He'd let his guard down and hadn't given his men a proper crisis management lesson. Sigh!
"I'm really sorry about this!" Han Minglang patted him on the shoulder like a good buddy. "I'll treat you to drinks another day."
"No need," Shao Lixin shook his head with a bitter face. "Just let the eldest son explain to my brother."
The Han and Shao families have maintained a good relationship for many years. If it weren't for the Han family's intervention a few years ago, the Shao family patriarch would have been in serious trouble. Furthermore, the eldest son of the Han family is his brother Shao Liren's idol, and the second son is his brother's close friend. Even if the eldest son were to smash up his shop, or even set it on fire, Shao Liren would be applauding it!
Understanding his predicament, Han Minglang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it."
As the group was talking, Yu Mufeng's father finally arrived.
What happened?
"Are you Yu Mufeng's father?" Cheng Xiangdong asked coldly.
"Yes, it is me." Mr. Yu wiped his sweat and looked around. "Where is my son?"
“There…” He was bound haphazardly, listless.
"You!" Mr. Yu rushed forward to untie his son, shouting angrily as he untied the ropes, "You've gone too far! You're worse than animals! How could you kidnap my Xiaofeng? I'm calling the police!"
“Sir,” Han Minglang shrugged, “you should ask your son what good deed he’s done first!”
"Xiao Feng?" Yu Mufeng patted his son's face, then lowered his head and remained silent.
"What exactly happened?" Mr. Yu asked suspiciously.
“He kidnapped my brother,” Cheng Xiangdong said. “And he even used violence against my brother!”
"Impossible! My son wouldn't do such a thing!"
“I have evidence and witnesses.”
"Xiao Feng..." Seeing the other person's serious face, Mr. Yu's confidence wavered. "Speak!"
Yu Mufeng remained silent, tears streaming down his face from his lowered eyes.
Yu's father felt a chill in his heart and exclaimed in surprise, "Xiao Feng!"
"Alright, what do you think we should do to resolve this?" Cheng Xiangdong said, arms crossed.
"This..." The son remained silent, and the father didn't know the truth either. However, seeing Yu Mufeng's dejected appearance, he figured they were probably in the wrong. Yu's father's eyes darted around, and he said, "Well, if your side agrees, I'm willing to offer financial compensation."
"Economic compensation? Money?" Cheng Xiangdong raised an eyebrow.
Mr. Yu hurriedly pulled out a business card from his inner pocket. "This is my business card. I'll take the child with me now, and you can talk to me about the price later."
Cheng Xiangdong examined the business card between two fingers. "Regional General Manager?"
Mr. Yu nodded and helped his son up. "I won't renege on my debt."
After saying that, the father and son slowly walked towards the door.
Cheng Xiangdong watched the other party leave arrogantly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. "General Manager Yu, aren't you going to ask who I am?"
"Oh?" Mr. Yu stopped in his tracks. "I told you I wouldn't renege on my debt, and I need to find out the truth of the matter. Or perhaps we can meet in court?"
"Mr. Yu, my surname is Cheng."
Mr. Yu frowned, suddenly becoming alert. "Success?"
"The young master kidnapped my younger brother, who is also the beloved son of your company's president."
"What did you say...?" Mr. Yu was taken aback.
"Impossible! Lu Nan's surname isn't Cheng!" Yu Mufeng finally spoke up.
Cheng Xiangdong chuckled. "But to my father, Lu Nan is like his son."
