Such a life is truly tragic.
After Scarface got the bank card from Lu Wanqing.
Scarface grinned maliciously.
"I know what you're thinking."
"However... that's reality. Luckily, you didn't do anything stupid, otherwise, I can't guarantee what you might have done."
"As for what it is, I believe you understand."
"You wouldn't want anything to happen to your parents, would you?"
Scarface lightly patted Lu Wanqing's face a few times with the bank card. This humiliating action made Lu Wanqing grit her teeth and clench her fists.
Seeing this, Scarface grinned even more savagely.
He loved this kind of person who wanted to rebel but didn't dare to.
He pulled out a lighter.
He waved it in front of Lu Wanqing and then said, "See this lighter?"
Lu Wanqing remained silent and took a step back to create distance.
Scarface said slowly:
"You're like this lighter right now, completely at my mercy. I can do whatever I want with you, and you can't resist even if you're not willing."
"Don't think that just because you've spent these past few nights with that rich young master, you have the right to rebel. That's not true."
"In my hands, you're like this lighter. I let you exist, so you obediently do what you're supposed to do."
"I don't want you to exist. You'll just disappear like this lighter."
Pfft—!
With a sharp twist, the brand-new lighter snapped in two, the gas inside instantly evaporating, leaving behind a lingering smell that inexplicably evoked a sense of despair.
Lu Wanqing stood there, pale-faced and speechless.
Scarface grinned again, the smile on his face drawing out the scar, conveying a fearsome aura that made people afraid to resist.
He didn't like breaking lighters at first, but when he accidentally broke one and noticed how others feared him, he gradually fell in love with it and eventually became obsessed with it.
This feeling made him feel very comfortable, especially when he saw the fear on the faces of these people who had no power or background. Scarface was even more fascinated by it.
Look at Lu Wanqing, who was trying to resist before, now she doesn't dare to say a word.
Sure enough, if I don't scare him a little, he'll really think he's qualified to fight me.
Does she really think that being noticed by that rich young master for a few days gives her confidence?
That doesn't exist.
After making a threat.
Scarface didn't linger. He told Lu Wanqing again to come back in a few days to collect the debt, and then he left.

The VIP private room.
Tiger Soul is not inside.
Only Luo Chen remained there, scrolling through his phone.
Looking at the trending topics, Luo Chen read them one by one.
Most of the conversations revolved around the upcoming premiere of the show and the topic of the strongest singer, and of course, the story of Tianlai and Zhang Fan was also mentioned.
Luo Chen didn't pay much attention to these things.
Although the plot deviated from its original course early on, resulting in such events, it generally continued to develop along its original trajectory.
There will be a challenge match before the strongest singer's broadcast begins.
The challenge serves as a prelude to the show, and also as a way to see which singers truly have the ability to participate.
In other words, it's not much different from a knockout tournament.
It's just that the name has become more pleasant to hear.
There were quite a few singers participating, and in the early stages of the challenge, there were no four gold medal mentors to score the contestants; it was entirely based on audience votes.
Whoever gets the most votes will advance directly to the top 64.
Everyone agrees that this approach to fairness is without any issues.
Although such voting can still be manipulated behind the scenes.
The company has a significant advantage in terms of operations and the number of fans.
If it's similar to previous singing competition shows, then that's unfair.
After all, some singers may sing very well, but they don't have many fans, and their own companies don't invest many resources in them. So, there's no need to wait for the results; you already know who has won.
Unfortunately, the hype surrounding "The Strongest Singer" went on for too long, and the advertising campaign was also very extensive.
Many people are paying attention to this now.
The level of popularity is terrifying.
That's where fairness comes into play.
No matter how many fans you have, it's still within a fixed range; most of the new fans are drawn in by the larger number of followers.
They don't care which singer it is, how good-looking they are, or how much popularity they have.
As long as it doesn't offend their ears and the singing is genuinely good, they will vote.
The uncertainty of who will ultimately emerge victorious adds a lot of anticipation.
Although the program has started.
There were four top-rated mentors giving scores, but the audience still played a significant role.
Luo Chen, however, thought it was nothing.
According to the plot of the book, the strongest singer wants to create a fair program without any behind-the-scenes manipulation, and wants to select which singer truly deserves the title of the strongest.
Given the significant resources invested in the early stages and the extensive publicity, if such a situation were to occur, the program would undoubtedly be met with a barrage of criticism.
So if they want to make a second season, the audience won't accept it.
This is not the outcome they wanted.
Luo Chen stroked his chin and placed his phone on the table.
According to the original text, the champion of the first season was originally Tianlai, but one of the singers performed exceptionally well and directly won the championship.
He is not recognized.
Surprisingly, this was unexpected.
This outcome was something no one could have imagined.
Although the singer he was competing against was once very popular and had a large number of fans.
Everyone also believes that the final throne should belong to him.
After all, the opponent is indeed very strong in terms of experience and singing.
But as the saying goes, new talents replace the old, and the singer who was originally under the label of Tianlai performed exceptionally well and won the throne.
Whether it's the scores from the four top mentors or the votes from the audience, he received the most.
As a result, Tianlai's reputation resounded throughout the entertainment industry. As the person in charge of Tianlai, Qin Xiyao was naturally sought after and respected. People would praise her for her unique vision and for discovering gems that others could not see.
Tianlai naturally became one of the partners, sharing the profits.
However, the situation has now deviated from the original development.
With overlapping world lines and interconnected storylines,
Ye Feng is Ye Lin's older brother.
Far away in the northern frontier, he was controlling everything through his words, and the honor that should have belonged to Tianlai had become uncertain.
Everyone has given up hope that Teana will make it to the end.
It's estimated that Teana will stop after the challenge ends.
Without any prior knowledge, anyone who inquires will immediately shake their head in disbelief.
Even those fans who previously supported Tianlai are now like this.
