Mu Qing gritted her teeth, unable to utter a word of surrender.
It feels like giving in to Du Muchen is the same as giving in to that bitch Su Peishan.
She caused him so much trouble, and he still has to apologize and be subservient to this damned woman? It's like slapping himself in the face.
One of his men, clutching his throbbing abdomen, got up from the ground, blood trickling down his chin, looking utterly miserable.
“I’m not doing this job anymore. I… I don’t want to risk my life for a little bit of dirty money. If I die… my wife and children won’t be my own anymore. I still have my seventy-year-old parents to support. I’m the only son of the Wang family.”
After grumbling weakly, the man forced himself to stand up despite the excruciating pain and looked around at his companions who were lying on the ground.
"Who's coming with me?"
Immediately, everyone who had been wailing got up from the ground.
“I’m quitting too. This job is inhuman. I’ve wanted to leave him for a long time.”
"Me too. He expects us to be loyal to him, but he pays us such low wages. He even deducts our wages if we are late even once. There's no need to work for a boss like that."
In an instant, all the resentment that had been building up against Mu Qing, the boss, completely erupted, like a volcanic eruption, with fiery red lava coming from all directions like a roaring beast.
Don't blame everyone for turning against him at the last minute. Mu Qing usually treats his subordinates with beatings and scoldings, never regarding them as normal people. He always thinks of himself as their provider and looks down on them from the bottom of his heart.
His actions had already sown resentment in everyone's hearts.
They used to follow his lead. Firstly, being Mu Qing's bodyguard was relatively easy. Mu Qing would only bring them along when attending important banquets and collaborations, and even then, it was mostly just for show.
In addition, they were all martial arts practitioners. Apart from being Mu Qing's dogs, they were considered superior to others and gained many benefits through their relationship with Mu Qing.
Even though Mu Qing often scolded them, they could continue to be his dogs for the sake of money.
But today they've encountered a tough character, and they're not willing to sacrifice their lives for a boss who treats them badly.
Seeing that he was now being pushed around by everyone, Mu Qing's face turned extremely cold.
He knew perfectly well that if these people turned against him, he would lose the right to negotiate with Du Muchen.
Even if he was unwilling deep down, in reality he still had to give in to the other party.
Mu Qing, after all, was a seasoned veteran in the business world, and she knew very well what kind of decisions would be most beneficial to her in a crisis.
At this moment, apologizing to Du Muchen is his only way out.
"Young Master Du, I was rash just now, I apologize to you."
Du Muchen stared at him silently, his eyes devoid of any warmth or emotion.
She just stared at him coldly.
Mu Qing clenched his fists. Everyone here was smart, and he understood that the other party was not satisfied with his apology.
Then, a loud "thump" was heard.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Mu Qing knelt before Du Muchen.
“Mr. Du, I, Mu Qing, have lived for over forty years and have never knelt before anyone. I have offended you today, and I beg you to be magnanimous and forgive me this time.”
After saying that, he stretched out his hands and crawled on the ground.
The scene was hard to believe. This man, who held immense power in Eve and was always arrogant and conceited, manipulating others at will, could actually be in such a sorry state.
Du Muchen's eyes flickered, his gaze shifting to Su Peishan.
"Which hand just touched your waist?"
“Huh?” Su Peishan was stunned.
He stared at Du Muchen in astonishment.
Du Muchen noticed that she hadn't reacted yet, and turned his cold gaze to Mu Qing.
"It's the left hand."
You may not remember, but I remember it clearly. When that groping hand touched her body, only one thought flashed through his mind: destroy it.
Su Peishan finally understood what nonsense this man was spouting.
He was actually holding a grudge about Mu Qing putting her arm around his waist just now. His temper is really... low.
Mu Qing showed a surprised expression.
Unexpectedly, Du Muchen would value that bitch Su Peishan so much.
He even held a grudge if another man touched her.
Clang
A dagger gleaming with a cold silver light was thrown in front of Mu Qing.
Looking at the sharp dagger in front of her, Mu Qing's heart sank into an abyss.
"Will you do it yourself, or should I get someone to help you?"
Du Muchen's tone was very calm, like he was chatting casually with an acquaintance.
But what he said was incredibly chilling.
Mu Qing clenched her fists, her body trembling slightly uncontrollably.
Is Du Muchen going to cripple his hand?
How can this be? If his hands are crippled, he will become disabled.
This was something he simply couldn't accept.
At this moment, Mu Qing cast aside the last bit of stubbornness and pride in her heart.
"Young Master Du, I know I was wrong. I swear I will never have any thoughts about Miss Su again. Please forgive me this time."
"Miss Su? Heh, you were really enjoying calling me a slut just now." The one who spoke was the very capable young man.
Hearing the other person speak up for her, Su Peishan gave them a grateful look.
The boy was dressed in all black, wearing a cool baseball cap. Half of his face was hidden under the brim of the cap, but his fair skin showed that he was very young. His voice was deep and magnetic, like that of a standard announcer, which was very pleasant to listen to.
Judging from the voice, the other person must be a handsome young man.
