If someone is qualified enough for Zhao Zhuowen to do him a favor at this level, then this kid… For the first time, Kim Hyun-soo felt a pang of regret for his lack of information. What exactly made Zhao Zhuowen intervene in front of this kid? Could he be a hidden big shot?
"What, you can't even protect someone's favor? How about this, I won't protect him anymore," Zhao Zhuowen suddenly said.
After a pause, before Kim Hyun-soo could continue speaking, he said, "Oppa, after you're done dealing with him, let's practice! My hands have been itching to get moving lately."
Upon hearing Zhao Zhuowen's words, Jin Xianxiu's expression changed. He forced a smile and said, "Hahaha, Young Master Zhuowen is joking. I may not give face to anyone else, but how could I not give face to Young Master Zhuowen? I hope this friend can have a good spar with you later, Young Master Zhuowen. I won't participate."
Thinking of Zhao Zhuowen's terrifying skills, Kim Hyun-soo glanced at Lin Chen with a smile. Those around him seemed to only then realize the important point, and looked at Lin Chen with schadenfreude.
Judging by the time, Li Kui, Pan Wei, and the others should have arrived by now. Lin Chen deliberately had them bring in local paparazzi to sneak in. That way, as long as Yang Xiaomi's whereabouts were exposed to them, it would be considered a way of indirectly saving her.
As for Jin Songzhu, she lay to the side, crying. Because she was already young and had a fair and thin appearance, she looked exactly like a bullied middle school girl.
"I'm so annoyed." Although Lin Chen was a little angry at Jin Songzhu's willfulness, seeing her like this now, he felt as if he had bullied her and made her cry. It was really both funny and sad.
"Alright, stop crying. Isn't this all your own doing?" Lin Chen was a little annoyed, but in the end he had no choice but to let Jin Songzhu leave with him.
“Friend, isn’t this going too far?” Zhao Zhuowen disagreed, frowning and a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.
Lin Chen took a deep breath and calmly said, "Don't worry, if I lose, I will keep both women. But I will only take them with me if I win, how about that?" He had already thought out his bargaining chips and strategy.
Zhao Zhuowen remained silent for a moment, said nothing, simply nodded, and left with Lin Chen.
Of course, although they left, the matter did not end there.
Although Kim Hyun-soo was forced to compromise under Zhao Zhuowen's intimidation, his anger had not subsided. He turned his gaze to the people in the private room who had caused the incident, secretly plotting his revenge.
The "Boundless Joy" bar, as it's known to outsiders, is actually the "Boundless Joy" club. It is indeed a high-end club, accessible only to the truly wealthy and powerful; outsiders have little chance of getting in. The extravagance inside is astonishing.
Therefore, the "Boundless Happiness" club was mistakenly referred to as the "Boundless Happiness" bar, which immediately lowered its perceived status.
To make matters worse, this incident has also attracted the attention of paparazzi. They have already sneaked into Yang Xiaomi's private room and started taking all sorts of photos. Once this gets out, Kim Hyun-soo and his "Boundless Happiness" will definitely suffer a huge negative impact!
He can't afford to offend Zhao Zhuowen, nor can he afford to offend Wu Yifan, so how could he not afford to offend a rich second-generation like Che Yulin and a lecherous manager from out of town like Boss Cao?
"Ahhh, Manager Kim, don't hit me! Don't hit me! I'm very familiar with Young Master Zhuo!" Che Yulin was the first to suffer, being hung up with ropes and brutally beaten by Kim Hyun-soo's men until even his own father wouldn't recognize him.
"You're close to Young Master Zhuo? Hmph, don't think I don't know. You're nothing but Young Master Zhuo's dog. If Young Master Zhuo really cared about you, he would have taken you with him just now!"
Kim Hyun-soo sneered, having already seen through everything.
Even the heavily pregnant CEO Cao was not spared. He was stripped naked by Kim Hyun-soo's men and thrown into the bathtub, where beer was poured over his head repeatedly!
"Boss, boss, I'm Young Master Wu's friend! I'm Young Master Wu's friend!" Boss Cao pleaded in a panic.
"Young Master Wu has already told me that he has done what he could to help, and he won't concern himself with the rest. President Cao, those paparazzi were attracted by you and your female artists, which may damage the reputation of my club! Considering you've come from afar, these drinks are a gift from me, so you can wake up and not make any more foolish mistakes!" Kim Hyun-soo said coldly.
Mr. Cao's company wasn't located in Haizhou City, so even though he had influence in other cities, he was ultimately powerless against the local bully. He used several cases of beer to wash his hair and take a bath; this time he truly indulged in a life of luxury!
...
After they came out, Lin Chen spoke first and asked, "Did you inflict the injuries on Ya Nan?" His tone was accusatory.
"So what if it is?" Zhao Zhuowen retorted dismissively.
"Give me a reason." Lin Chen's voice was already somewhat low; he was extremely dissatisfied with the use of violence against women.
"Do I need to give you a reason to hit my girl?" Zhao Zhuowen said provocatively, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
"Even if she has a thousand faults, she shouldn't be hit." Lin Chen's principle was simple: violence is the lowest form of treatment when dealing with women. He would never tolerate such behavior.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Zhao Zhuowen dangled his car keys in his hand, his fierce gaze fixed on Lin Chen.
"How about we raise the stakes again? Let's get her to the hospital first. If I win, she can receive treatment; if I lose, you can take her away anytime." Lin Chen raised the stakes again, his bets getting bigger and bigger, it all came down to the final all-in bet.
"That's interesting. Okay, I agree!"
A playful smile appeared on Zhao Zhuowen's lips. He seemed to have been drawn in by Lin Chen's provocation and decided to continue the bet.
He was completely unaware that Lin Chen had him under her thumb. This was because he had a weakness few knew about: a gambling addiction. Lin Chen had only managed to escape unscathed by exploiting this weakness after understanding his true nature.
"Get in the car."
Behind Zhao Zhuowen was a black Mercedes-Benz G-Class, exuding an imposing presence; it would be hard to find another one like it in the entire Haizhou City. However, the car did match Zhao Zhuowen's image and status quite well.
Su Yanan lay quietly behind Lin Chen, seemingly asleep peacefully as the effects of the medicine wore off. Jin Songzhu, however, was not so well-behaved.
She had originally planned to use Lin Chen to escape the "Boundless Joy" bar and the clutches of Wu Yifan and Jin Xianxiu. Now that she was finally out, she naturally didn't want to stay any longer, so she tried every possible way to escape.
