Chapter 435: Chapter 435

The boy’s back hit the wall, a muted groan, and he fell to the ground.

The man sneered, his gaze dark and brooding, staring at the boy curled up on the ground: "Run, keep running."

Feng Cheng rushed over, "Aning, Aning, are you okay?"

He turned his head and shouted angrily, "What you’re doing is a crime, I’ll sue you."

The man chuckled, instructing the bodyguard, "Give him a phone, let him call the police. I want to see who dares to arrest me."

Feng Cheng was grinding his teeth, having just escaped from the tiger’s den only to fall into the wolf’s lair. And this man seemed much harder to deal with than Huang Xi, his face clearly signaling trouble, and he was indeed ruthless.

Feng Cheng even regretted it. He should have stayed in the private room earlier. At worst, he would’ve just sung some songs and played games with a group of entitled young masters and mistresses. They wouldn’t have gone too far.

But what this man in front of him would do was uncertain.

Rong Xianning coughed, struggling to get up, "I... I’m a contracted artist with Eternal Century, also a popular contestant in Chunzhou TV Station’s youth idol program. If anything happens to me, Eternal Century won’t let you off, and public opinion online will be extremely unfavorable to you."

The man coldly laughed, his eyes full of contempt and disdain: "Eternal Century? Ding Meng, right? What is she worth? She’s not even fit to carry my shoes. As for public opinion online, do you think I care? Aren’t you giving yourself too much credit?"

Rong Xianning tugged at the corners of his lips, biting the tip of his tongue until it bled, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, making his face even paler.

"Then I can only fight you to the death. My life is worthless, if I die, so be it. But what about you? Is it worth stirring up trouble for nothing? Why don’t we each take a step back and see the bigger picture?"

The man squinted his eyes: "Are you threatening me?"

The boy spoke slowly and steadily, "An elephant and an ant, anyone would think the ant is overestimating itself, trying to shake a tree. But don’t forget, an ant can also have the power to make an elephant’s life unbearable. You can feel free to try."

The boy stood straight, in a disadvantaged position yet refusing to back down even half a step, his slender frame filled with unyielding spirit.

In the shadows, Zhu Shou watched this scene, only feeling the boy was excessively foolish.

At the same time, from deep within, he had a trace of admiration. Having been in this circle for so long, he’d long forgotten what boundaries were, but this boy, by his words and deeds, demonstrated what integrity and perseverance were.

People , there were too few in this circle, at least he had never seen one. Most people just go with the flow, turning a blind eye, and climbing towards greater fame and power by any means necessary.

Only this boy was an exception.

Maybe he was just too young, charging ahead fueled by reckless courage. After he delves deeper into society and sees more of its dark side, he might make a different choice.

The man froze for a moment, then as if stung, his face turned red with shame and anger: "Blatant nonsense, killing you is as easy as killing an ant."

Shen You’an sighed deeply, stepping out from the shadows.

The man suddenly lifted his gaze, looking over warily: "Who?"

It was a slender, delicate girl, her face pale and serene. She walked over as if no one else was there, stopped beside the boy, and squatted down to meet his eyes.

Rong Xianning was struck dumb, long forgetting the pain in his body, his expression falling as he lowered his head reluctantly. Thinking of something, he suddenly looked up anxiously, "You should go, don’t worry about me."

Shen You’an helped him up: "Let’s get up first."

Rong Xianning slowly stood but grabbed her arm backhandedly, his eyes pleading: "Please go, I’m fine."

Feng Cheng stared blankly at the girl before him. Was she the one who spoke last in Huang Xi’s private room earlier?

If she played with Huang Xi, her status must be out of the ordinary. Maybe she could save them from this predicament.

Feng Cheng rubbed his hands together like a fly begging: "Please help Aning, Aning was coerced by them, good deeds are rewarded, please."

Rong Xianning said in a deep voice, "Don’t say anymore."

The man gave a sinister smile, eyeing the girl’s graceful figure with lust: "You brought yourself to me, so don’t blame me for being rude."

At this, the boy who was unfazed by having his dignity trampled, suddenly changed his expression. He pulled Shen You’an behind him with a swift move, using his not-so-broad back to shield her from harm.

"Anything you have, come at me. She’s innocent." Google seaʀᴄh novel~fire~net

At this moment, the tightly closed private room door behind the man opened, and a young man walked out, cursing and swearing: "Liang Cai, did you fall into the toilet? Do you want me to fish you out...?"

Opening the door, he was dumbfounded by the scene before him.

Liang Cai messing around again, Feng Yueyang was filled with contempt, but considering the acquisition matter, it was best not to cause complications. For now, he should appease this bastard.

"Oh, you still have this taste, neither picky about meat nor vegetables..."

Feng Yueyang’s gaze moved from Rong Xianning to the young girl beside him. Originally an inadvertent glance, he withdrew his gaze, realized something was amiss, and looked over sharply.

In the dimly lit corridor, the girl’s glasses reflected light, yet it didn’t prevent him from seeing those deep eyes, staring straight at him, like a soul-stirring envoy, hiding murderous intent.

Feng Yueyang suddenly felt a chill at his crown, his knees weakening, subconsciously wanting to kneel to the ground.

Liang Cai, you bastard, trying to get me killed.
