Jinhao Entertainment Center,
one of the well-known comprehensive entertainment venues in the West District, is always bustling with customers.
The owner, Liu Chuanyu, is quite influential in the area, and almost everyone gives him face.
Usually, no one dares to cause trouble here.
Today, a black sedan slowly stopped at the entrance of Jinhao Entertainment Center. Then, a group of burly men wearing sunglasses swarmed out.
They stormed directly into the entertainment center's lobby, startling all the guests, who were too intimidated by their fierce aura to move.
A few security guards bravely stepped forward, "Who are you? Do you know whose turf this is? You can't just..."
Before they could finish, the leader, a hulking man built like a tower, glanced at them coldly, "Get lost."
The security guards fell silent immediately,
for in that brief moment, they sensed the undisguised murderous intent from the man, which was terrifying.
The group forcefully made their way to the top floor, heading straight to the most luxurious room, which was the office of the owner, Liu Chuanyu.
"Bang!"
The door was violently kicked open.
Liu Chuanyu, overweight and slightly balding, was sitting at his desk. Startled by the loud noise, his face turned dark, "Who are you people? This is outrageous!"
"Are you Liu Chuanyu, the owner of Jinhao Entertainment?"
the burly man asked.
Liu Chuanyu snapped, "Since you know who I am, how dare you cause trouble here?"
The hulking leader stepped forward and said calmly, "You have two days to shut down Jinhao Entertainment and leave Haiqing City, or face the consequences."
Shut down the entertainment center in two days? Leave Haiqing City?
Liu Chuanyu was stunned, then burst into furious laughter, thinking these people must be insane. This isn't a small shop!
Jinhao Entertainment might not be a large corporation, but it's worth billions. How could it be closed just like that?
"You're delusional! Get out now, or I won't be so polite!" Liu Chuanyu said, his face darkening as he reached for his phone to call security.
"Think carefully about the consequences before you speak. This time, we're here on behalf of Young Master Li."
The leader said coolly.
Liu Chuanyu's eyes narrowed, "Which Young Master Li?"
The man sneered, "In Haiqing City, who else dares to call themselves Young Master Li besides him?"
The hint was clear. Liu Chuanyu wasn't foolish; he instantly understood who they were referring to.
Li Ze!
The eldest son of the Li family in Haiqing City!
A top-tier family in Haiqing City, not someone a small-time boss like him could contend with.
But why would he suddenly trouble him?
Liu Chuanyu's expression turned grim and uncertain.
"Even if it's Young Master Li, he can't just shut down my Jinhao Entertainment without any reason."
Buzz.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
At that moment, the burly man's phone rang. He glanced at it casually and chuckled."Young Master, yes, we've met Liu Chuanyu at Jinhao Entertainment Center. However, he seems to have some objections. Alright..."
As he spoke, the man turned his phone screen towards Liu Chuanyu and said coldly, "My young master wants to talk to you."
Liu Chuanyu's expression tightened, but he thought about the value of Jinhao Entertainment Center, the culmination of his life's work.
So, gritting his teeth and summoning his courage, he pleaded,
"Young Master Li, we have no connection, right? I don't recall ever offending you. Why are you asking me to shut down Jinhao Entertainment Center at the drop of a hat?"
"Well, you haven't offended me yet," came Li Ze's voice from the other end of the phone, "but you must leave Haiqing City within two days, no reasons necessary."
"Liu Boss, I've given you two days' grace period. Isn't that merciful enough?"
"Merciful my foot!"
Liu Chuanyu was almost choked with anger. Why did it sound like he was the one getting the upper hand?
"Young Master Li, you're going too far. This is the foundation I've built my whole life! You want to destroy it with just a word? Your family may be powerful, but Liu Chuanyu isn't someone to be trifled with!"
"A cornered dog will jump over a wall!"
Liu Chuanyu's face flushed with anger, his mind clouded. As soon as these words left his mouth, the temperature in the room seemed to drop suddenly, chilling to the bone.
Liu Chuanyu shivered involuntarily.
His body stiffened abruptly.
Because a hard object was already pressed against Liu Chuanyu's forehead.
"Liu Boss, choose your words wisely!"
The leader's face bore an undisguised chill, suggesting that if Liu Chuanyu uttered another wrong word, it might cost him his life on the spot!
Silence fell on the other end of the phone. Cold sweat started dripping from Liu Chuanyu's forehead, the silent pressure almost crushing him. With a twitch of the burly man's fingers, his life could be over in an instant!
After a few seconds, Li Ze's voice came through with a sigh, "Liu Boss, is there a misunderstanding? A cornered dog will jump over a wall? If you know you're a dog, then act like one... Do I look like I'm negotiating with you?"
His tone was icy as he issued a final ultimatum: "Tell me, do you want to obediently leave Haiqing City, or do you want to bury yourself and your family in Haiqing City?"
Li Ze didn't need Liu Chuanyu's opinion, nor was he here to negotiate with him.In the eyes of the Li family, what was Liu Chuanyu?
Being in a position of advantage meant using all available resources to one's advantage, even if it meant resorting to ruthless and bullying tactics.
As a villain, one had to act like a villain.
I'm not like those villains whose intelligence is diminished, constantly making stupid moves and handing out experience points to the protagonist and their cronies all day. They may appear to have control, but in reality, they are just providing opportunities for the protagonist to gather various resources and strengthen their forces.
For him, it was about using his power from the start to crush the enemy in their cradle."I..." Cold sweat trickled down Liu Chuanyu's forehead.
At this point, Li Ze spoke again, slowly: "Liu Boss, don't sabotage yourself. Even for the sake of your daughter Liu Xiaoxiao, you should think carefully."
"You!" Liu Chuanyu suddenly looked up, disbelief written all over his face.
To have everything he had today, Liu Chuanyu had engaged in many shady dealings and made numerous enemies. For safety reasons, he had always kept his daughter's true identity hidden, even from his closest associates, to prevent enemies from retaliating. When the leader's hulking figure mentioned his daughter's name directly, Liu Chuanyu's last line of defense crumbled.
Under the wolf-like bloodthirsty gaze of the leader, Liu Chuanyu finally trembled and said, "Okay, I promise to leave in two days."
"Isn't this better? Liu Boss, you've made a wise decision," Li Ze chuckled.
"Both sides reaching such a peaceful agreement without resorting to violence or bloodshed, isn't that a bright future for us all?"
With the gun still aimed at him, Liu Chuanyu's mouth twitched as he repeated, "Yes, yes..."
"Young Master Li, what about us?" the leader asked over the phone.
Li Ze replied, "Withdraw. You have other tasks."
"Alright, let's go!"
After hanging up, the hulking man holstered his gun, gestured, and the group departed in a formidable manner.
"Phew~ Phew~" Liu Chuanyu suddenly slumped in his chair, feeling as if his body weighed a thousand pounds, his lips drained of color.
After a long while, he pressed a button on his desk.
A man with a center-parted hair walked into the room. "Boss, you called?"
He was Liu Chuanyu's trusted confidant.
Liu Chuanyu, exhausted, said weakly, "Take inventory of our assets, dismiss the staff. We need to leave Haiqing City."
"What?" His confidant was shocked, turning pale. "Boss, this is not acceptable, we..."
Boom!!
A potted plant on the desk was violently smashed onto the confidant's head, causing him to bleed profusely and collapse.
Liu Chuanyu's face twisted in fury, bloodshot eyes roaring, "Do as I say! If you don't want to die!"
"Yes, yes." The confidant was completely terrified, clutching his head and hastily leaving the office.
The rage on Liu Chuanyu's face slowly dissipated as he slumped back into his chair once again.
At the same time, in the Chairman's office of the Entertainment Media Corporation.
Li Ze hung up the phone.
Liu Xiaoxiao, daughter of Liu Chuanyu, is one of the heroines in the TV series "Country Experts Go Urban," where she meets the protagonist Ye Tian at Xuri University. After a cliché hero-saves-beauty incident, she was captivated by Ye Tian's charm and strength, joining his harem. As a result, Liu Chuanyu became involved with Ye Tian through Liu Xiaoxiao's influence, providing him with considerable support in the early stages.
And now,
With Liu Chuanyu leaving Haiqing, he would undoubtedly take Liu Xiaoxiao with him.
The connection that should have existed between the two is now severed!
