"Besides, you said I am a capitalist, didn’t you?"
Zhou Chengyan said, squatting beside the man, one hand dragging his smiling face, the other indifferently slapping the man’s face, "Do you think you’re tough, or is my background tougher?"
Then, he said something even more despair-inducing.
"Aren’t I more familiar with the people at the police station than you are?"
The man choked.
The floor was so cold, he felt like crying.
"Don’t be sad, I’ll sponsor you another 2 million."
Zhou Chengyan added, with a knife hidden in his smile.
Seeing the man in this deathly state, Zhou Chengyan thought it was quite dull. Rising to his feet, he stood at a distance, smoothed out his slightly crumpled clothes, crushed the cigarette butt on the floor with his toe, and made a call to the police station.
"Hello, it’s me."
Then Zhou Chengyan briefly recounted the incident.
...
"Yes... He scammed a total of 2.75 million."
The half-dead man on the ground: ?
After quickly handling the man, Zhou Chengyan promptly hung up the phone. He leaned against the nearby wall, all dressed up, and lit another cigarette, admiring the pathetic sight of the man.
The scattered smoke obscured his harsh face, and when the cops arrived and took the man away, Zhou Chengyan finally left with a cigarette in his mouth.
When he returned, grandfather Zhou had finished drinking his tea and was back. Zhou Guorui gave him some advice, told him to smoke less, glanced outside, heard the siren, and asked, "Why are the cops here all of a sudden?"
Zhou Chengyan, hands cushioning the back of his head, lazily looked at him and then lazed back in his seat.
"Not sure."
"Maybe someone did something shady."
Yu Ting squinted at Zhou Chengyan and carefully noticed a little dark blood stain near the leg of his trousers.
This matter must have something to do with him.
Noticing that Yu Ting was looking at him, Zhou Chengyan looked back at her with an attractive smile, "Why, do you think I’m better-looking than your husband?"
Zhou Chengyan was always attractive, whether he was smiling, smoking, hitting people, or mocking, he was strikingly handsome, refined yet roguish, both noble and dangerous, exuding a deadly charm.
As the saying goes: women don’t love bad men.
For most girls, he was incredibly handsome and charming.
But this "most girls" did not include Yu Ting, who only thought Zhou Chengyan was frivolous, and it was hard to tell whether what he said was true or false.
"No thanks, my husband is more handsome than you." After Yu Ting surprisingly replied, she turned her head away and sat down.
Zhou Chengyan sat in his seat and concluded, "You’re so young and already your eyesight is failing."
Then, the short break was over, and it was time to start filming the second half.
Before the shooting started, Zhou Chengyan suddenly raised his hand to signal the production team, "I want to change seats."
"I don’t want to sit next to an old woman." Not just old but also slow.
Shen Ruchu, who got the cue, was like: ?
If it had been anyone else, Shen Ruchu would have flown into a rage long ago, but unfortunately, it was Zhou Chengyan.
"I won’t sit with him."
Yu Ting further expressed, everyone was straightforward.
Seeing two mentors voicing their opinions, the troubled production team chose to turn a blind eye and continued preparing for the shoot.
"Really, Miss Yu, you’re not going to take advantage of my golden connections?"
Zhou Chengyan commented, then knowingly baited her, "Isn’t your career on the rise? Why not take advantage?"
The Zhou’s of Nanshan City, a family who could open up all relationships in Nanshan City and most of the upper echelons of the country, were behind him.
"I’m not considering." Yu Ting found him annoying and ill-intentioned.
