369: Chapter 344: Offending Many People 369: Chapter 344: Offending Many People “You think I can’t handle a pen or a sword, my dad is Xia Minglang, as long as I have money, that’s enough! I’ll do whatever I want, and if I can’t get you today, I’ll get you tomorrow, until you’re dead!” Xia Huai shouted at Liu Hun, his whole body exuding a violent aura. “Some bastard born without a father’s care, I really feel sorry for Xia Minglang.” Liu Hun said, grabbing Xia Huai’s shoulder with his left hand and pushing him away. Dagger had been taken away, and the thugs he had called were all beaten to the ground. Xia Huai could only stare at Liu Hun with bloodshot eyes, not daring to step forward nor willing to leave, losing face like this. “Liu Agent... what’s going on?” Shi Bi’er had just finished recording the song and walked out of the studio. She saw the people on the ground and the furious Xia Huai but didn’t understand the situation. When Xia Huai saw Shi Bi’er and the band come out, his rigid mind suddenly became active. He pointed at the band behind Shi Bi’er and said, “You! Come with me! Whatever Liu Hun pays you, I’ll give you ten times more!” Guang Shanlin and the others looked at each other. The proposal was indeed tempting, but whether it could be trusted was another matter. So, Guang Shanlin asked Xia Huai, “And who might you be?” “Hmph! I’m Xia Huai! My dad is Xia Minglang from the glorious entertainment conglomerate!” Xia Huai said, puffing out his chest to Guang Shanlin. “The chairman of the entertainment conglomerate!” Guang Shanlin’s eyes suddenly lit up. He hadn’t expected this loud-mouthed youth to have such an impressive background, but still with some doubts, he said, “You say you’re him just like that? Got any proof?” “Beep beep beep!” Xia Huai pulled out the Ferrari keys and pressed them, directing them towards the Ferrari behind him, and the sports car immediately made a sound. “Wow, a Ferrari! He really is the son of the entertainment conglomerate’s chairman!” the drummer said enviously. Xia Huai’s face instantly showed a proud expression, and pointing at Liu Hun, he said, “This guy is just a poor wretch! I said, as long as you come with me, I’ll give ten times more than what he’s paying!” “But... what about the contract?” Guang Shanlin hesitantly glanced at Liu Hun and then asked Xia Huai. It was obvious that he was tempted. “Give it to me!” Xia Huai, shaking his head, stretched out his hand to Guang Shanlin. Seeing no reaction from Liu Hun, Guang Shanlin boldly handed the contract to Xia Huai. “Nothing but a piece of scrap paper! Worst comes to worst, I’ll compensate you for breach of contract! Liu Hun! You watch! I tear it up, what can you do about that? I’m pulling your people away now, what can you do about that?” Xia Huai said brazenly and couldn’t help but laugh loudly, his demeanor extremely arrogant. Looking at the drift of confetti, Guang Shanlin said rather awkwardly to Liu Hun, “Liu... Agent Liu, man dies for wealth as birds die for food. I hope you can understand.” Liu Hun nodded and shook hands with the band members one by one, “I understand you! But let me remind you, following him will bring you no good.” “Liu Agent, don’t be sour now; if you have the means to pay more, then we’d stay.” the drummer said to Liu Hun with a sneer, clearly seeing where the greater benefits lay; obviously, following Xia Huai could bring them more profit. “It’s not that I can’t do more; it’s that I don’t want to. Goodbye!” Liu Hun said, shaking hands with the five members in a very polite manner. Black Dragon Power all dispelled, artistic talents all absorbed! Seeing the band stand by his side and the people on the ground getting up one by one, Xia Huai suddenly felt much more confident and stood on tiptoes and sneered at Liu Hun, “Liu Hun! Go ahead and record! Let’s see how you do it! You were so arrogant, changing faces, fighting, and playing piano. Oh! That’s right! And recognizing ancient scores from thousands of years ago! How impressive! But... what are you going to do now? Go ahead, record for me to see, Mr. All-Capable Agent!” Without a band, I can recruit again, and I’m not particularly keen to hold onto this kind of band,” Liu Hun said, glancing over the few band members. He had planned to focus on nurturing these people to fame like Shi Bi, but clearly they had chosen the immediate benefits. “What if you have no studio to record in?” Xia Huai asked Liu Hun with a sinister smile. “Studio?!” Liu Hun’s heart skipped a beat; he had no idea what Xia Huai was planning. “You guys! Smash it! Smash everything here into pieces! Leave nothing untouched!” Xia Huai ordered his thugs, who avoided Liu Hun and immediately began to wreak havoc. “Hey! What are you doing?! Stop it!” Shi Bi anxiously yelled at the group of thugs, but it was of no use. “Don’t push your luck, Xia Huai! If I call the cops, it won’t be good for you!” Liu Hun said more forcefully to Xia Huai, not wanting to be hard on this just-legal youth. “Swish!” Xia Huai took out a lease contract. Liu Hun’s eyes focused; it was the contract he had used to rent the studio. “Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!” Xia Huai tore the contract to shreds in front of Liu Hun, then casually threw the pieces into the air, and then, smirking, he asked Liu Hun, “You were going to recruit a band, weren’t you? Go on, recruit them! After recruiting, where will you record? I think a cesspit suits you best, because you’re nothing but a piece of shit! I’ve poached your people, what can you do? Smashed your studio, what can you do? Torn your contract, what can you do again?” “Don’t... don’t speak! I know what you’re going to say, it’s just the penalty for breach of contract, right? It’s just money, right? I, Xia Huai, don’t have much, but I do have money! Who made my dad Xia Minglang? Want money? Here it is!” Xia Huai had become so arrogant that he didn’t even know his own surname anymore, and casually wrote a check for a million and threw it on the ground, then said to Liu Hun, “Take it! Your penalty for breach of contract! Anything extra is a bonus for you!” “This person is too much! Smashing, hitting, and causing trouble!” Shi Bi’er frowned tightly with contempt at the arrogant Xia Huai. “Pick it up! Get down and pick it up! It’s yours if you pick it up, and if you’re willing to kneel, I’ll give you another million. How about it, Liu Hun, you’re short of money anyway, right?” After Xia Huai finished speaking, he burst into loud laughter, seemingly having forgotten all that happened before. “I’ll do it! I’ll kneel and pick it up! Give me a million!” Guang Shanlin said obsequiously to Xia Huai. “I’m willing too! I’m willing! Let me do it! I can do anything!” “Me too! Me too! Whatever they can do, I can do too!” “...” The band members were groveling at Xia Huai’s feet like dogs, each willing to kneel and even lick his shoes for that million. Xia Huai laughed so hard his face twisted, and said to Liu Hun, “Liu Hun! Do you see? You just have to kneel to get the money! If you’re willing, I’ll add two million more! Not interested? I can also give this band back to you, I can find you the best band in Hui Music, and the best recording studio too! What do you say?” “Is your head filled with shit? Do I need to remind you about what just happened?” Liu Hun stepped closer to Xia Huai, his gaze growing more and more piercing. Suddenly, Xia Huai felt a chill run down his spine, and he couldn’t help but shiver, wanting to maintain an “I’m a rich and handsome guy” demeanor. However, under Liu Hun’s relentless advance, his entire body trembled uncontrollably, and he became a coward. “You... what do you want to do? Don’t mess around! You... you guys stop him!” Xia Huai commanded his henchmen with a fear-stricken face. Just as the thugs were about to approach, Liu Hun suddenly turned around, his tiger-like gaze sweeping over all of them, and he asked in a stern voice, “Who dares?!” The thugs around him, who were just about to make a move, each shuddered and froze in place, as if glued there, none daring to move, no one willing to stick their neck out. “All of you are useless! You... don’t come here! Liu Hun, what do you want to do? If you dare to touch me, I can sue you!” Xia Huai felt his own voice start to tremble, unsure why. Standing near Xia Huai, Guang Shanlin, and a few others also felt something amiss in the atmosphere and started backing away, unable to articulate why, but all had the same thought flash through their minds—this man is dangerous! “Kneel!” Liu Hun walked up to Xia Huai and roared. “Thud!” At his command, Xia Huai knelt immediately, his previous arrogance gone, replaced by endless fear. He didn’t want to kneel; he wanted to stand tall, but his body told him that kneeling was the smartest move, as he saw a pair of eyes that were not human, swirling with iridescent mist, eyes that seemed to suck away everything, including life. “Pick it up!” Liu Hun continued, his face cold as he addressed Xia Huai. Xia Huai shakily reached out to pick up the check from the ground, nearly dropping it several times. “Hold it up to me with both hands!” Liu Hun looked down at Xia Huai, like one might look at an ant they could crush at any moment. Xia Huai obediently did as he was told, not daring to resist in the slightest, presenting the check to Liu Hun with the utmost reverence. The people around were stunned, staring in shock, unsure of what to do. No one went to help Xia Huai up, and no one dared to rush Liu Hun and beat him up. “Let’s go!” Liu Hun pulled Shi Bi’er, who was still in shock, and sauntered out of the recording studio. Behind them, a bunch of motionless thugs and band members stood like petrified chickens, and Xia Huai kneeling on the ground watched them leave, everyone present understood a truth—money which seemed omnipotent was nothing but dirt in front of this man! The current situation could not merely be described as complicated; only half of the album was completed, the recording studio was gone, the band was gone, and there were only ten days left. Liu Hun spent the whole morning calling from home. Everyone who answered put him off, hanging up after barely two sentences. He had anticipated this, but still hoped against hope to try. “How is it? Still no one willing to rent us a recording studio?” Shi Bi’er sat anxiously beside Liu Hun. Liu Hun nodded and said, “Can’t even rent the worst studio, can’t find a third-rate band either. We blew it with Tianxing and then got on the wrong side of Hui Music, now with Yao Shi making arrangements on both sides, they are definitely not going to help us.” “So what do we do now? All three major entertainment companies have isolated us, Nandou Studio is two-faced, and a bunch of female celebrities are waiting to laugh at us. We could have approached Director Chai before, but now it would probably be awkward too.” Shi Bi’er took a big sip of coffee, as bitter as her current mood.
