Mu Feng kicked his body and said, "I can let today's matter slide, but while you can avoid the death penalty, you cannot escape punishment. Breaking one of your hands will serve as a lesson!"
With that, he stomped down hard on Director Yang's right hand.
A crisp crack echoed, and Director Yang's right hand was instantly crushed into a pulp.
"My hand, my hand is ruined!" Staring at his mangled hand, he burst into tears.
Mu Feng dropped a parting sentence, "Remember this is just a warning. If I ever find out you trouble Xiao Xiao again, I'm sorry, but next time it will be your head that gets crushed!"
With that, the two swaggered away, slamming the door behind them.
Being alone, Director Yang naturally refused to accept it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, I will absolutely not let you off, I will not let you off!"
He didn't rush out. Instead, enduring the excruciating pain, he picked up his phone with his other hand, intending to delete the video he had just posted.
In just one minute, the video was completely erased.
However, to Director Yang's despair, the incident had already escalated to an extreme. It wasn't something he could simply delete and be done with.
"It's over! These damned online parasites actually saved the video?" To his utter despair, videos of his apology and clarification were plastered all over the internet.
If it weren't for the late hour, his phone would undoubtedly have been ringing off the hook.
His mental state had deteriorated. Despite the late hour, he couldn't sleep at all, and he stayed awake until broad daylight.
Early the next morning, the sisters knocked on Mu Feng's hotel suite door.
Cheng Xiao entered with breakfast and said, "Mr. Mu, please try this. It's fish noodle soup we just made, it's delicious!"
As a bowl of steaming, white, thin noodles was presented, the rich aroma of fish broth made his mouth water.
He thought to himself, "If I had two assistants like them to take care of my daily needs, it would be incredibly convenient!"
With that thought, he quickly slapped himself mentally, cursing himself for being inhuman.
However, Mu Feng said with a serious expression, "I'm really troubling both of you. I feel quite embarrassed!"
"Mr. Mu has helped us so much, it's we who should be embarrassed!" Cheng Xiao placed the fish noodle soup on the bedside table.
He quickly got up and said, "By the way, I'm not a patient. Eating in bed isn't a good habit. Speaking of which, what did your company say?"
Upon mentioning the company, Cheng Xiao's beautiful eyes dimmed completely, and she sighed, "I was notified this morning that I've been blacklisted!"
"There's no need to hang yourself on one tree. Can't you find another agency?"
Mu Feng could sense how important Cheng Xiao considered her career. Everyone has their own pursuits.
"Alas, being blacklisted by the entire entertainment industry means that unless I go abroad, I have no chance of developing my career!" Cheng Xiao shook her head repeatedly.
"Ultimately, you're just a victim. If your company insists on playing it this way, then I'll have to teach them a lesson!" Mu Feng clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking.
Cheng Xiao said worriedly, "Mr. Mu, thank you so much for doing so much for me. But I'm worried that the other party is powerful, and it might implicate you!"
"Don't worry. We'll go to your company later to take a look. If it's still okay, I'll acquire it directly. Then you won't be blacklisted, right?"
Mu Feng's words were no different from a fairy tale to others.
Cheng Xiao gasped, covering her mouth, "Mr. Mu? Are you… are you saying you want to acquire Shengyuan Entertainment Company?"
"Yes, is there anything wrong with that?" Mu Feng said it so casually, as if acquiring a company was as simple as buying a toy.
His cosmetics company alone generated astronomical daily revenue, making him outrageously wealthy.
"The company is currently valued at five billion. That's no small sum. Mr. Mu, you just say you'll acquire it?" Cheng Xiao was somewhat disbelieving.
"It's a simple matter. Let's go, quickly resolve your issue so I can get back to my own business. After all, I'm a busy man!" Mu Feng stretched lazily, saying it offhandedly.
Cheng Xiao's eyes dimmed for a moment, her expression and emotions fluctuating without her even noticing.
And so, they drove to Shengyuan Entertainment Company. At the entrance of the company building, as they were about to go in, they were stopped by the security guards.
"Hold on, you can't go in!" the security guard said in a low voice.
Cheng Xiao stepped forward and said, "I'm an artist here. Why can't I go in?"
The security guard sneered, "Tsk tsk, isn't this the promiscuous slut from the internet? Didn't the company terminate your contract? Why are you still here?"
The other security guards burst into laughter, even revealing lewd expressions.
A tall security guard chuckled, "Why not let big brothers have some fun? We may not have much money, but our skills are definitely top-notch!"
Faced with the vulgar insults, Cheng Xiao felt nauseated but was helpless. After all, this was their territory.
"I don't want to stoop to your level. Move aside, or I'll have to use force!" Mu Feng clasped his hands behind his back, his patience having reached its limit.
Unbeknownst to them, a major event was unfolding at Shengyuan Entertainment Company that day.
Due to the video from the previous night, the company's stock price had plummeted to its lowest point, with a high probability of further decline.
Once that happened, the company would be worthless, and all the wealth accumulated over the years would vanish in an instant, with no chance of recovery. All of this was solely because of that one video.
"This acquisition price really can't go any lower. Thirty billion is my bottom line…" A middle-aged man in a suit with a small mustache was fawning over a man with a square-shaped face.
This square-faced man was the general manager of a Chinese investment company, named Zhang Hong.
And the obsequious middle-aged man was the chairman of Shengyuan Entertainment, You Kewei.
"I say, President You, do you think this is the time to negotiate with me? Fifteen billion, not a cent more. You need to understand that soon your company will be worth nothing. If you don't cash out and leave now, you'll end up a pauper!" Zhang Hong chuckled.
You Kewei hesitated. His words made perfect sense, but fifteen billion was practically a pittance, a huge loss.
As he was caught in a dilemma, a voice cut through the air.
"Since thirty billion is your bottom line, I'll offer thirty-five billion!" a young man said as he walked in slowly, accompanied by a beautiful girl. This young man was Mu Feng.
