The office door was shut tight not far away, and no one knew what was happening inside.
"Let's sit and wait!"
Qin Chuan found a chair and sat down. He was already in a bad mood, having been inexplicably targeted today and dragged into someone else's relationship drama.
After about ten minutes, the door to Leng Ningshuang's office finally opened.
An enraged man stormed out; it was Ouyang Nan.
Many people outside were watching to see the outcome. When the office door opened, regardless of what they were doing, everyone quietly stopped and their gazes converged.
"Bitch! Bitch!!"
Ouyang Nan ignored the attention, exuding an unprecedented ferocity. His fists were clenched, as if something unbearable had just happened in the office, and he muttered curses under his breath.
Suddenly, he turned and shouted at the office door, "You slut, you want to break up with me? No way!!"
"As long as I'm alive, you'll never escape my grasp in this lifetime!"
Ouyang Nan's roar was so loud that everyone in the office area looked up in shock. Even people from other offices opened their doors to peek out curiously.
Under numerous watchful eyes, Ouyang Nan finished his tirade and strode towards the exit, seemingly preparing to leave.
Abruptly, as he passed Qin Chuan and his group, Ouyang Nan stopped dead in his tracks, his eyes, filled with malice, fixed directly on Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan's expression was calm, meeting the other man's gaze with composure. The others were more nervous, as many people considered Ouyang Nan to be quite neurotic and mentally unstable.
A normal person wouldn't act so extremely.
"You son of a bitch, it's all because of you..."
Suddenly, amidst gasps of surprise, Ouyang Nan clenched his fist and lunged at Qin Chuan like a mad dog.
In his eyes, Qin Chuan's gaze was an immense provocation.
"Xiao Chuan, be careful!"
"Boss, watch out!"
The incident happened so suddenly that no one expected Ouyang Nan to act so brazenly in such a place, and to target Qin Chuan.
As cries of alarm rang out, Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes and instinctively moved to dodge.
However, Qin Chuan's movement soon stopped. A pair of dark, inky eyes emitted a chilling, unfathomable light.
*Bang!*
In that split second, a fist loomed larger in his vision, and Qin Chuan's body toppled over.
As Ouyang Nan attempted to press his attack, Ye Meiyun, Ge Lan, and Liu Kaihe finally reacted and stepped forward together, grabbing Ouyang Nan's body.
At the same time, others from the office rushed over. Some went to help the fallen Qin Chuan, while others joined in to restrain Ouyang Nan's rampage.
"Ouyang Nan, you lunatic!"
"Completely irredeemable!"
Amidst the chaotic atmosphere, an angry shout suddenly cut through the air. It was Leng Ningshuang, who had run out of the office at some point.
"Boss Qin, Boss Qin, are you alright?"
After scolding Ouyang Nan, Leng Ningshuang hurried to Qin Chuan's side, her face etched with anxiety and concern.
Qin Chuan rubbed his numb and aching jaw, slowly getting up from the ground. He tasted a metallic flavor and spat, his mouth full of blood.
Ouyang Nan had indeed struck hard, hitting his jaw and breaking his gums and tongue.
Qin Chuan's expression was surprisingly calm. He merely glanced at Leng Ningshuang and then said to Ye Meiyun, who was looking at him with concern, "Sister, help me call the police!"
"Supervisor Ge, take out your camera from your bag and record everything here!"
As Qin Chuan finished speaking, Ye Meiyun and Ge Lan were momentarily stunned, then reacted quickly.
One swiftly pulled out her phone to call the police, while the other took a camera from her bag and turned on the recording function.
"Boss Qin, what are you doing? Why are you calling the police?"
Leng Ningshuang quickly interjected.
"I apologize on behalf of Team Leader Ouyang!"
"Let's all sit down and discuss this matter!"
Qin Chuan calmly looked at Leng Ningshuang, a slight upward curve at the corner of his lips. "Team Leader Leng, given your previous help, I hope you won't interfere in this matter!"
"I was standing here, minding my own business, and was assaulted for no reason. Do you think a mere apology can resolve this?"
"If apologies were that effective, what would be the point of the police!"
Leng Ningshuang was rendered speechless by Qin Chuan's words.
Just then, a voice filled with violence rang out. Ouyang Nan, who was being restrained by many, wore a look of madness.
"Son of a bitch, you're calling the police? Fine! Let him!"
"If you don't, you're my grandson!"
"If you dare to call the police, believe it or not, I'll ensure your stupid advertisement can never be broadcast!"
Ouyang Nan roared hysterically, his voice causing everyone present to wear a look of utter exasperation.
This man was truly courting death!
Didn't he see the camera recording everything? If this were to be exposed, the trouble would be immense!
This was CCTV, not some backwater corner. If it were exposed, the impact would be enormous.
"Quickly go call Director Xie!"
Someone with quick wit whispered an instruction to a person nearby.
"Team Leader Ouyang, this is CCTV. Do you think this is your home, where you can stop my advertisement from airing with a single word?"
Qin Chuan stared coldly at Ouyang Nan.
Ouyang Nan's demeanor remained as arrogant as ever. Hearing this, he adopted a condescending, superior posture and sneered, "A bumpkin is still a bumpkin, a frog in a well, never seen the vast sky outside!"
"This is my home, what are you going to do about it?"
"My brother-in-law is the head of the entire advertising department... mmmph..."
As Ouyang Nan was speaking, a hand suddenly covered his mouth with lightning speed.
Qin Chuan's gaze turned completely cold. He scanned and found that the one covering Ouyang Nan's mouth was actually an acquaintance—Wang Yang!
Noticing Qin Chuan's icy stare, Wang Yang grinned sheepishly. "Boss Qin, we can discuss things. Why be so impulsive!"
"We're all businessmen. If the police get involved, it might not be the most beneficial outcome for you!"
Qin Chuan's eyes were cold, and just as he was about to speak, a commotion arose.
"Make way, everyone!"
"Director Xie and Director Ma are here!"
As the noise grew, the crowd parted, and two middle-aged men, one stout and one thin, walked over with grim expressions.
Upon seeing Qin Chuan's bleeding mouth and Ge Lan's recording camera, the two men's eyebrows twitched simultaneously.
Then, one of them glared fiercely at Ouyang Nan in the crowd.
