Yang Gao knelt down and slapped himself repeatedly, tears welling up as he said, "I was wrong, it's all my fault. I really shouldn't have harbored illusions about Cheng Xiao..."
You Kewei was so angry he felt like spitting blood. His fingers trembled as he pointed at Yang Gao and roared, "You, you actually did something like this? Today, I must kill you!"
In his eyes, Cheng Xiao was Mu Feng's woman. To offend the woman of a big shot, wouldn't that mean certain death?
Now was the time to show his stance. He had to kill this guy.
You Kewei was tall and burly, a stark contrast to the plump and short Yang Gao.
After being dragged away, he continued to cry out, "Boss, let me go, please let me go!"
"Mr. Mu, perhaps we can let this matter go, can we?" Cheng Xiao was very kind-hearted. Seeing how pitiful he looked, she quickly felt a pang of sympathy.
Mu Feng waved his hand, "Alright, his crime doesn't warrant death. Let him go!"
You Kewei snorted coldly and tossed him aside. He issued a stern warning, "You worthless piece of trash, you dare offend anyone? If it weren't for Miss Cheng showing you leniency today, I would have minced you into meat paste!"
Yang Gao, having narrowly escaped death, lay on the ground, panting heavily. He had been thoroughly scared and had wet himself. A pungent stench filled the air, utterly nauseating.
Mu Feng waved his hand, "Alright, hurry up and drag him out. This smell is too overwhelming!"
Soon, security guards walked in and escorted Yang Gao out, one on each side.
The other employees were also in tears, utterly miserable. They were all fired. The company was almost free of its bad eggs.
After resolving everything, You Kewei bowed deeply in the office, "Mr. Mu, I am truly sorry for this incident. It is my dereliction of duty in management, but I promise this will never happen again!"
Mu Feng nodded slightly, "This is a small matter. The most important thing for the company now is to minimize negative news and stabilize public opinion!"
Cheng Xiao, standing by the side, was a bit stunned. In the blink of an eye, the company was now Mu Feng's.
Dramatically, he now needed to rush public relations to prevent the company from further decline.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Mu. Although the company's losses will be significant, it will not go bankrupt. I will handle this matter!" You Kewei patted his chest.
Mu Feng, too lazy to manage the company, nodded, "Do a good job. I have high hopes for you!"
"By the way, Mr. Mu, Miss Cheng, there's a leading role in a movie that needs an actress. I think Miss Cheng would be perfect!" You Kewei suddenly remembered something.
Cheng Xiao was startled, shaking her head like a rattle drum, "No, no, no. It's fine for me to sing a few songs, but I don't know how to act!"
Mu Feng smiled, "The first time is difficult, but the second time will be easier. Practice with a few more scripts, and you'll be fine. Believe in yourself!"
You Kewei also chimed in, "Mr. Mu is right. Miss Cheng, I truly believe you are suited for movies. You'll be an award-winning actress in the future!"
The flattery was so obvious that anyone could tell he was trying to please Mu Feng.
Cheng Xiao was so moved that tears almost flowed. She was just a minor actress with some fame, but then she was blacklisted.
She felt as if she were waking from a dream.
However, she clearly understood that all of this was brought about by Mu Feng. Without him, she was nothing.
"Thank you, Mr. You, thank you, Mr. Mu!" She bowed to both of them.
You Kewei was so startled he almost knelt down. He bowed obsequiously, "Don't mention it, Miss Cheng. I should be the one bowing!"
"Alright, alright, don't scare her. You'll continue to manage the company. I'm too lazy to ask about it normally!"
Mu Feng stretched and stood up, "Alright, since everything is settled, I'll be leaving!"
You Kewei tried to persuade him, "Mr. Mu, I've just prepared a banquet. Please don't leave, join us for a meal!"
Mu Feng had always refused such pointless banquets. He didn't want to waste time on anything.
He politely declined, "I have other matters to attend to. You all eat yourselves. Miss Xiao, I'll trouble Mr. You to look after her!"
You Kewei hurriedly shook his head, bowing, "It's no trouble, no trouble. Shall I drive you back?"
"That won't be necessary. Let's keep in touch!" Mu Feng nodded and then left the chairman's office.
After he left, You Kewei breathed a sigh of relief. He had really been worried that Mu Feng would cancel the acquisition. With him leaving, things had calmed down.
He walked up to Cheng Xiao and said in a very humble manner, "Miss Cheng, you didn't even have an office before, only a workstation. I'll have the deputy general manager's office tidied up for you. You can work there from now on. Oh, and the company has also purchased an imported Iveco RV. You can travel in it for filming and business events!"
Cheng Xiao was flattered, "Ah, this... this isn't quite right. These are usually standard for A-list artists. How can I..."
"Hey, what's not to like? This RV and the office are all yours. I'll arrange a team for you later, and all the company's resources will be tilted towards you. I guarantee that within three months, you'll definitely become an A-list star!"
You Kewei's words were not untrue. With Cheng Xiao's capital, it was indeed possible for her to become an A-list star.
As they planned her future career, Mu Feng was preparing to drive away. Before he had gone far, he was stopped by a group of people.
These people were carrying cleavers and baseball bats, clearly thugs from society.
"Get out of the car, you bastard!" The leader of the group, a young man, smashed Mu Feng's car windshield with a baseball bat.
Mu Feng's face instantly turned cold. He slowly got out of the car and asked, "Who are you people? Why are you smashing my car?"
The young thug smiled smugly, "Kid, do you know? You've offended someone. Smash it, smash it hard!"
Mu Feng chuckled, "If you really smash my car to pieces, you'll have to compensate at least ten million, otherwise, this matter won't end well!"
He laughed heartily, "Ten million? This beat-up car of yours is worth at most a hundred thousand yuan. Smash it!"
"I was planning to get a new car anyway. Since you want to smash it, please, be my guest!"
Mu Feng stepped aside, watching the thugs' rampage with narrowed eyes.
The thugs, armed with cleavers and baseball bats, began to smash the car wildly. Soon, his sedan was smashed to smithereens and rendered scrap.
The leader licked his lips, "Kid, see? Your car is smashed to pieces. What can you do to me now?"
