Chapter 2: Chapter 2: 30,000,000, is that a lot?
"Good! Young Master, our people will arrive within a minute! Congratulations, Young Master, you can finally return to the family. No more need to put up with this humiliation!" a magnetic voice responded to Chen Tang over the phone.
Chen Tang heaved a sigh, "Remember, don't reveal my identity yet, I... I'm not planning to go back yet!"
"Understood!"
...
Now that the family ban was lifted, Chen Tang no longer needed to endure in silence.
Watch his own wife be humiliated?
Chen Tang couldn't do it!
After hanging up the phone, Chen Tang prepared to push open the door and rush into the room. Just then, Manager Liu came out from the room. Seeing Chen Tang's actions, he slapped Chen Tang across the face, "You scoundrel, do you think the trouble you've caused isn't big enough? If you want to die, don't drag us down with you..."
Manager Liu was still muttering, but Chen Tang, without a word, slapped Manager Liu's face hard in retaliation!
Slap!
The crisp sound echoed in the corridor, leaving Manager Liu and several security guards stunned, "Holy sh*t, you dare to hit me too? Dammit, you don't want your job anymore? Damn!"
Imperial KTV is one of the more upscale KTV establishments in Yun City, where the waitstaff, with wages and tips, could make over 10,000 yuan a month. In Yun City, this was considered a very good job.
For many people, a job at Imperial KTV was highly coveted.
Before the ban from his family was lifted, Chen Tang indeed needed a job to support himself.
But now...
"Humph, just a lousy job. So what if I don't do it?" Chen Tang took off his vest and threw it on the ground fiercely. Before Manager Liu could react, Chen Tang slapped the other side of his face, "These two slaps are payback. You'd better stay out of my business!"
As his words fell, before Manager Liu and the security guards could come to their senses, Chen Tang had already kicked open the room door and charged in!
In the private room, Lin Chuxue was pouring drinks for Boss Zhang and a few other corpulent men, "Boss Zhang, Boss Wang... I apologize for the earlier mishap, I'm sorry..."
As Lin Chuxue bent down to pour the drink, Boss Zhang's other, uninjured hand actually reached out to grab her again, "President Lin, forget about pouring drinks. Come on, sit with me..."
Men are always like that, forever restless for what they can't have!
"Boss Zhang, please don't do this, I have a husband..." Lin Chuxue dodged, but Boss Zhang, relentless, lunged at her!
Bang!
Just as Boss Zhang's hand was about five centimeters from Lin Chuxue, another beer bottle came crashing down!
"Ah!" Boss Zhang screamed in agony, his arm retracted like a flash of lightning, this hand rendered useless once again.
When Boss Zhang saw it was Chen Tang, he became so furious that he was hopping mad, hysterically roaring, "You son of a bitch, what are you, a rabid dog? Manager Liu, what the hell are you doing eating sh*t for? Kid, if 'la zi' don't kill you today, I'll take your surname..."
Manager Liu, followed by several security guards, rushed in frantically, finally managing to subdue Chen Tang, "Sorry, sorry! Boss Zhang..."
Having been interrupted twice already and still not having touched a hair on Lin Chuxue, Boss Zhang was fuming to the extreme, "Dammit, all you know is to say sorry, what the f*ck is the use of sorry! 'La zi' will cripple you today!"
As he spoke, Boss Zhang, regardless of his bleeding hand, grabbed a beer bottle, winding it up to smash down on Chen Tang's head.
Chen Tang's arms were grabbed by Manager Liu and the guards, rendering him unable to move. If that beer bottle came crashing down, Chen Tang's head would be split open for sure.
Seeing Boss Zhang's action, Lin Chuxue quickly stepped forward to stand in front of Chen Tang, "Boss Zhang, please calm down... I apologize on his behalf, please let him go for my sake? After all, he is my husband..."
But Boss Zhang, like an enraged lion, completely disregarded Lin Chuxue, "Get out of the way! You filthy whore, you really think I fancy your second-hand goods that much? Wait until 'la zi' settle the score with you later!"
Just as Boss Zhang swung the bottle, ready to strike, a rush of footsteps came from the doorway and a cold voice sounded at the entrance, "Zhang Hao, quite imposing, aren't we? When are you planning on repaying the money you owe me?"
Hearing this voice, Boss Zhang's arm froze in mid-air, his face turning to one of forced smiles as he turned and said to the entrance, "Boss Liu, Master Liu... didn't we agree on a two-month grace period?"
At the doorway, a man clad in a Zhongshan suit stepped into the room. The man had no distinguishing features, a square face, beaming with smiles, and even carried a hint of scholarly elegance.
However, in the VIP room, the remaining bosses all stood up in unison when they saw Master Liu, and politely said, "Master Liu!"
Master Liu flicked his sleeves and said indifferently, "I've changed my mind. Come with me, you have eight hours to inform your family to raise the money! Oh, and the rest of you, since you all came together, you should leave together!"
Master Liu's voice was not loud, but his casual glance around the room sealed the fates of everyone present.
"Master Liu, Boss Zhang's issue has nothing to do with us!"
"Yeah, I still have things to deal with at my company, can I leave first?"
...
The few bosses who had come with Zhang Hao turned pale and shivered uncontrollably when they heard they had to go with Master Liu.
Master Liu, whose real name was Liu Tianxiong!
On the surface, he seemed gentle and refined, but his actual methods were extremely cruel! Liu Tianxiong was known as the "living Yama" in Yun City. It was said that Liu Tianxiong owned a white house of his own, and once someone was taken there, if they ever came out alive, at best, they'd be severely scarred; at worst, they'd go insane...
Chen Tang glanced at Liu Tianxiong and understood immediately!
The omnipotent Liu Tianxiong of Yun City, this must be the D-Level support from the family!
If D-Level support is this strong, what about C-Level and B-Level?
"What, do you have a problem with that?" Liu Tianxiong smiled as he glanced at Boss Zhang and the other bosses. Although his eyebrows maintained a smile, the faint chill in his expression made them shiver uncontrollably.
"No… no problem…"
...
Just a moment ago, Boss Zhang, Elder Wang, and others were acting high and mighty, but now they were as meek as sheep, obediently lining up to leave.
At this moment, they had no thought of dealing with Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang!
Liu Tianxiong turned around, glanced at the captured Chen Tang, and after exchanging a look with him, said indifferently to the security guards, "Why are you still holding him? Let go!"
"Yes!" Manager Liu quickly responded and gave the security guards a signal with his eyes.
Someone as influential as Liu Tianxiong, even the owner of Imperial KTV was only fit to carry his shoes; how could Manager Liu afford to offend him?
Seeing that Chen Tang was safe, Liu Tianxiong didn't stay any longer and quickly left the room.
The supervisor, Manager Liu, glared fiercely at Chen Tang, "Chen Tang, consider yourself lucky! Today Master Liu spoke for you, otherwise, I'd break your legs! I now declare that you're fired, get lost... and don't let me see you again!"
After dropping the harsh words, Manager Liu hurriedly left with the security guards.
He had to report today's events to the boss as soon as possible.
In the end, only Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang were left in the VIP room. "Chu Xue, you sold yourself for 30 million? Was it worth it?"
Lin Chuxue gave Chen Tang a complex look, her voice tinged with bitterness, "Ah... you don't understand. The company is about to go bankrupt. I really need that 30 million!"
Having been married to Chen Tang for so many years, while Lin Chuxue and Chen Tang were not incredibly close, neither had there been deep hatred. Moreover, today, Chen Tang had gone to great lengths to protect her, stirring a bit of touched emotion in Lin Chuxue's heart.
In contrast, Lin Chuxue's relatives, except for her grandfather, all looked down on Chen Tang, always feeling like he was a fresh flower stuck in cow dung!
Chen Tang looked deeply into Lin Chuxue's eyes, "Let's go, you go home first. Don't do something this foolish again! The 30 million, I'll ask my classmate to help invest."
It seemed, it was time to make a trip to the bank!
30 million, was that a lot of money?
The Chen Family, even as a side branch, after the restriction was lifted, each member should be able to access at least tens of billions, right?
Moreover, wasn't Chen Tang the legitimate young master of the Chen Family's main branch?
