Before Ye Zi could respond, Wang Baozhang answered the phone and said bluntly:
"Make your son apologize to my sister-in-law, and then get the hell out of here."
Otherwise, you know what the consequences will be.
Wang Baozhang said something and hung up immediately, then turned to Ye Zi and said:
"All done. Is there anything else?"
"It's gone."
Beep beep beep...
Wang Baozhang hung up the phone decisively.
Just as Liu Shi'an was preparing a gift and about to make a sarcastic remark, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
When Liu Shi'an saw the caller ID, his expression changed. He then glanced at Ye Zi and Tong Tong and instinctively sensed that something was wrong.
As soon as the call connected, before Liu Shi'an could speak, a furious roar came from the phone:
"I don't care where you are, apologize to the other party right now and get back here, or from today onwards, you have nothing to do with me."
Also, if this was caused by a woman, sever all ties with her; otherwise, don't ever show your face in front of me again.
The other party didn't give Liu Shi'an any chance to explain, and hung up the phone immediately after yelling.
Liu Shi'an looked stunned, and the internet celebrity livestreamer next to him looked even more incredulous.
Tongtong's assistant was quite surprised. The landlord's son had been causing her trouble for over a month, and this was it? One phone call solved it?
The person who addressed Liu Shi'an as "Laozi" could only be the landlord.
Tongtong's relationship is no secret. As Tongtong's assistant, she also knew about Yezi's background. Apart from participating in three survival shows, Yezi had no other works.
She never expected him to have such great influence. She knew very well who Liu Shi'an's father was; although he wasn't a real estate tycoon, he was quite famous.
She wants to sever ties with her son because of a single phone call.
In other words, although Tongtong's fiancé is not well-known in the industry, he is definitely a big shot in a certain field, and Tongtong doesn't even know these things.
If Tongtong knew her fiancé had such power, she wouldn't even need to come over; a simple phone call would have solved the problem.
The assistant was making assumptions and guesses, thinking of all sorts of things. Tongtong waited calmly for Liu Shi'an to apologize, while Ye Zi said with a mocking expression:
"Landlord's son? Raising my rent? Young master? Rushing through the capital?"
The rustling of the leaves snapped Liu Shi'an, who had been lost in thought, back to reality.
He hadn't expected this outcome. Without his father's support, he wouldn't have been able to move an inch in Beijing, let alone have a smooth ride.
Moreover, he has never actually been to Beijing; such talk is just to fool gold-digging women who have never been exposed to the various circles of Beijing.
He dared to act all high and mighty at Tongtong's studio because Tongtong had fallen out with her original company and was now without resources or backing.
Unexpectedly, Tongtong's background is even more terrifying now, not only crushing him, but also his father.
"Apologize," Ye Zi said in a low voice, a hint of murderous intent in it.
A chilling aura flashed by, and Liu Shi'an seemed to have experienced something terrifying; a patch of his pants became wet.
Ye Zi frowned, then said:
“You haven’t been here today, you haven’t met me, and nothing has happened. Keep your mouth shut, or even ten fathers couldn’t protect you.”
Liu Shi'an nodded in horror.
Ye Zi whispered again:
"roll."
"I'm sorry, thank you," Liu Shi'an said, and then fled as if he were escaping.
Ye Zi pulled Tong Tong Tong up and said:
"Didn't I tell you to go to Baozhang if you need anything? Why are you trying to handle it all by yourself?"
Tongtong stood up and said as she walked:
"I just didn't want to trouble them too much."
There was a strange smell in the meeting room, and they didn't want to stay any longer.
“That guy is so bored he’s practically rolling on the floor. He’s already on holiday and going home to prepare for the New Year. We have to find something for him to do, otherwise he’ll feel resentful.”
Tongtong chuckled. She knew what Yezi did for a living, but she never expected that after all that, she would still have such a childlike side.
After Ye Zi and Tong Tong left, the abandoned internet celebrity finally came to her senses. She was finished. She had offended the company boss, and her backer was a useless person.
Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the fact that Tongtong had just established her studio, sign a contract as soon as possible, get resources, make a name for myself, and then seek a better job or climb the social ladder.
The first half went as expected, but the result was completely different. He then looked at his assistant, who had just snapped out of his reverie, and said:
Am I finished?
The assistant nodded and said:
"I can't continue as an actor, so I'll just continue being an internet celebrity."
After finishing up at the studio, Yezi and Tongtong went shopping and then went home.
Two days passed in a flash. Yezi and Tongtong hardly went out during these two days, spending the rest of their time at home together.
When the time came, Ye Zi drove away.
Upon arriving at the Gates of Hell, the entire area was deserted. Everyone had gone home for the Lunar New Year holiday, and only a few remained, having nowhere else to go.
Although the Gate of Hell is underground, it covers a considerable area, and few people have seen it.
Besides Sister Meng and Xiao Touming, there was also Tu Fu and three power-type combatants at the bar.
Ye Zi looked puzzled. Xiao Touming and Tu Fu were normal, since they were homeless. It was also normal for Sister Meng to be here, since they were about to go on a mission and it wouldn't make sense for her, the person in charge, to be absent.
It's strange that Yang Dali, Chen Qifeng, and Zhang Mingming are here, as all three of them have families and none of them live in Beijing.
The Chinese New Year is almost here, but instead of going home, I'm here.
As soon as Ye Zi sat down, she saw four boxes, each labeled with the name of one of the four power-type combatants.
Ye Zi walked over, opened her box, and saw that it contained the armor that Wang Dachui had made for her.
Thinking back to the four sets of armor and the appearance of Yang Dali and the other two at this time.
Ye Zi immediately understood that the three of them would also be joining the team on this mission.
Not long after, a bespectacled, well-mannered middle-aged man walked into the bar, greeted Sister Meng first, then nodded to Ye Zi and the others, and sat down at the bar.
"Let me introduce you. This is Wu Donghuan, the head of the foreign affairs team. You can just call him Lao Wu," Mengjie said to Yezi.
"Ye Zi." Ye Zi reached out and greeted Wu Dongheng.
"Old Wu."
The two shook hands, and then Ye Zi looked puzzled.
“We are in charge of external affairs. If you are mercenaries, you can think of us as mercenary brokers.”
Our main responsibility is external communication. For example, in this competition, we're in charge of betting on the sidelines, collecting the spoils, and engaging in verbal battles with other factions.
Ye Zi immediately understood that this was the representative who had been pushed into the open to communicate with other forces, commonly known as the scapegoat.
After exchanging greetings, Wu Dongheng handed Ye Zi a document and said:
"This is the information for this competition, which was just released an hour ago, which is why I called you back."
Ye Zi nodded and took the documents. The four words on the cover surprised him greatly.
