Liu Kangyang's explosive temper returned, and he suddenly found it laughable.
As Liu Changjian's own grandson, what was there to fear in this run-down place called Jiangcheng?
Whoever came would have to show the Liu family some respect.
He sent a text message directly to his grandfather: "Old man, if you don't want your grandson to disappear forever, hurry to the film base! I'm being bullied by someone on set."
This message should be shocking enough.
Grandpa wouldn't not come.
But this time, after waiting for two hours, Liu Changjian still hadn't shown up.
Only Qin Yexuan remained seated there, calm and collected.
Everyone else was already on edge.
"Um, isn't Su Xueqing still locked in the car? We need to let her out quickly. Our crew needs to get back to work," the director said softly.
"I forbid her release!" Qin Yexuan raised an eyebrow. "We haven't finished dealing with things here yet!"
The director and producer forced a wry smile. "What kind of status does Old Master Liu Changjian have? How could he possibly come here?"
Oh?
Qin Yexuan slowly stood up, suddenly grabbed Liu Kangyang's left hand, and with a simple shake, he made a sound that was less than human.
Liu Kangyang let out a scream, three of his five fingers were broken.
Qin Yexuan even smiled. "Is this enough? Liu Changjian will definitely come."
Liu Kangyang writhed on the ground in agony. It was the producer who then, trembling, took a photo and sent it using his own phone.
This time, it didn't take long for Liu Changjian to arrive with his entourage.
Not as ostentatious as usual, the old master of the Liu family only brought two bodyguards.
His face was dejected, and he stood there, mustering his energy. "Who kidnapped my grandson? Is there no law anymore? Do you know who I am?"
No one spoke.
Liu Changjian glanced around and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed it wasn't an enemy coming to settle a score, nor was it a kidnapping. It was just this brat getting into trouble again.
"Take Kangyang away. I have a lot to do today and don't want to escalate this."
Liu Changjian was now like a dog with its tail between its legs, truly scared. The more low-key, the better.
However, a stranger appeared, cold and terrifying. "No one is taking him away. I said so."
Liu Changjian looked up, his eyelids began to tremble. He sensed a familiar aura from this "stranger."
Qin Yexuan, using the alias Qin Aiqian and even changing his appearance, still possessed that inherent aura of a superior when he truly unleashed his power.
Liu Changjian swallowed. He was now cautious and apprehensive. "May I ask who you are?"
"My surname is Qin!"
Liu Changjian trembled all over. "Qin, Qin? Do you know Mr. Qin Yexuan?"
He was most afraid of that devil, Qin Yexuan.
Qin Yexuan glanced at him. "We know each other. We see each other every day."
Liu Changjian's head buzzed.
Trembling, he took out his phone, wanting to make a call to confirm.
Qin Yexuan immediately reprimanded him. "Liu Changjian, how many lives do you have? Didn't those three broken teeth make you sober up? You still want to call someone? Let me tell you, once I, Qin, speak, my words are like spilled water. No one can do anything about it!"
Liu Changjian, who had just had three teeth knocked out and lost everything, fell to his knees with a thud.
Everyone in the tent was petrified.
Chen Yongran and Liu Kangyang were even more incredulous.
The old master of the Liu family actually knelt before someone? And it was this extra?
They didn't know that Liu Changjian was nearly scared to death at this moment.
He had completely confirmed that the man in front of him was somehow connected to Qin Yexuan.
Perhaps he was specifically sent by Qin Yexuan to deal with his grandson.
This was terrifying!
Liu Changjian trembled for a while, and then pleaded, "Please, please show mercy. He is my only grandson..."
Before he could finish, Qin Yexuan raised his finger. "Fine. You can exchange your life for your grandson's two hands and two feet! Do you think this is a good deal?"
What kind of person was Liu Changjian?
He was the type to abandon his entire family when fleeing.
He feared death more as he aged. How could he exchange his life for Liu Kangyang's?
His eyes trembled as Liu Changjian stood up, instantly appearing much older.
Liu Kangyang became frightened, seeing his grandfather so utterly defeated and fearful for the first time.
He knew he had provoked the wrong person.
And not just anyone, but a super-powerful figure that no amount of influence could help against.
"Grandpa, you can't do this. I'm still young, I have most of my life ahead of me. I can't become crippled."
Liu Changjian gritted out, "So, you mean you want me to trade my life for yours?"
Of course, Liu Kangyang thought this, but he didn't dare to say it. His face turned red, and he finally managed to squeeze out, "I will definitely give you a grand funeral."
"Damn it!"
Liu Changjian was furious, completely disillusioned.
He lacked even the basic filial piety. What kind of person was this?
He suddenly turned around and roared at his subordinates, "Break his arms and legs, then send him to the hospital. I will only cover the surgical and medical expenses. From now on, his life or death has nothing to do with the Liu family!"
Liu Kangyang screamed and desperately tried to escape, clutching his broken fingers.
Inside the tent, everyone was silent with fear.
The director and producer trembled, almost wetting their pants.
Liu Changjian's men stepped forward, nimbly restrained the fleeing Liu Kangyang, and with a snap, snap!
Two consecutive sounds. They broke the fool's arms from the elbows.
Then they raised their feet and with all their might, broke his legs.
Liu Kangyang cried out the first few times before finally succumbing to the pain and passing out.
"Take him and get out. Liu Changjian, learn to act with your tail between your legs from now on. You are no longer the head of the Liu family. Now, you are just an old dog!"
Qin Yexuan was merciless.
Liu Changjian, shamefully, took his people and left.
Qin Yexuan took another sip of tea, then looked at Chen Yongran, who was cowering in the corner...
