Supremely Talented Tyrant -
Chapter 880 - 879: The Magnanimous Adult
Actually, when Hao Jian just stepped out, he had received a phone call from Spice Ginger, telling him that he was drinking nearby. But he did not expect to return and see Che Xiaoxiao being beaten up; Spice Ginger had only come over to offer a toast to Hao Jian and unexpectedly witnessed this scene upon arrival.
"Zhao Da, you have the guts to mess with my boss, quite bold, eh?"
With a sneer, Spice Ginger looked at Zhao Da. He was pretty clear about this guy's character. And Wu Ming, who often defiled singing girls at KTVs, was also known to him. However, such things were common in the underworld, and since it was someone else's turf, he hadn't felt it was his place to interfere.
But now that these people were picking on Hao Jian, he couldn't ignore it any longer.
"Spice Ginger, cut the crap. Have your brothers smash this place. Take whatever you see, and if anything happens, I'll take the fall."
Hao Jian glanced at Che Xiaoxiao behind him and waved his hand impatiently at Spice Ginger, signaling him to get moving and take care of business, rather than wasting time here.
"But these two guys..."
Upon hearing this, Spice Ginger nodded and was about to lead his brothers out, but then he glanced at Wu Ming and hesitated to speak. He wanted to ask if he needed to take care of them as well.
"Leave these two guys to me to deal with. You go take care of your business."
Hao Jian shook his head. Wu Ming was the main culprit for hitting Che Xiaoxiao, and now he had brought Zhao Da to cause him trouble. This was something Hao Jian could not overlook. As for Zhao Da, there was even less to say—he dared to smear his reputation...
"Boss... Boss..."
Zhao Da had not heard the conversation between the two men, as he was already terrified to the point of a blank mind by what Spice Ginger had just said. Had he really just gone after a big shot like Spice Ginger?!
By the time he recovered, the entire KTV was left with only Hao Jian and his three associates, along with Zhao Da and Wu Ming. As for the others, they had all been pulled away by Spice Ginger and his men to keep from bothering Hao Jian any further.
"Sir... Sir, I beg you to be magnanimous, please don't take it out on us small fry!" Finally snapping out of it, Zhao Da knelt down before Hao Jian in terror, knocking his head on the floor repeatedly, his trembling form expressing his current fear.
"Please don't wreck our shop!"
After Spice Ginger and the others had gone out, the relentless sounds of smashing and crashing filtered through the poorly soundproofed door, causing Zhao Da's pale complexion to turn even whiter. After all, this shop wasn't his! There was a real boss above him!
"Right, right, we were wrong, so wrong!"
Seeing Zhao Da kneel, Wu Ming quickly followed suit. If his own backbone was scared, what could he do? Although he had no idea who Spice Ginger or Hao Jian were, Zhao Da's actions were undoubtedly the right move.
"Oh? You tell me, on what grounds should I forgive you?" Hao Jian looked at the two men with a cold sneer, snorting coldly, "You harm my woman because you can, you give me the blame casually, and now that you realize I am stronger than you and that you can't beat me, you start to beg for mercy?!"
"Where did that aggressive momentum just now go?! Motherfucker! You're cowering now?!"
"If I didn't have this power, maybe I'd be the one kneeling on the ground right now, and my woman would have been defiled by this pig!"
Hao Jian's cold words hit Zhao Da and Wu Ming's already shaking hearts with each syllable, and Zhao Da's face revealed a color of ashen despair, fearing that there might not be a way out of this...
"Smack!"
Just then, the door to Hao Jian's KTV room was opened again, and a man drenched in sweat rushed in, his face ashen with fear. He strode over to where Zhao Da and the other were.
"Go to hell!"
He stepped forward and kicked the two men, who hadn't had the time to react, and sent them flying out. Zhao Da, with a puzzled face, stared at the man who had kicked them.
"Boss... Boss… why are you hitting us?"
The "boss" Zhao Da was referring to was naturally the real owner of the KTV, a man named Xu Zhu known for his resourcefulness. Before Hao Jian took control of both the legal and illegal domains of Hua City, Xu Zhu also wielded a not-insignificant influence in the underworld.
However, under pressure from Hao Jian's emergence, he had no choice but to disband his followers. It was only recently that he started to gather a few people again to watch his shop and keep up appearances, as Zhao Da alone didn't have the capacity to manage these toughs.
In fact, when trouble arose just now, it was one of his subordinates who phoned him. Hearing that his shop was being vandalized, he immediately leaped from his mistress and rushed here without stopping.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the shop, his head felt like it had been ferociously hammered. The entire KTV was in shambles—anything that could be seen or carried was destroyed. The floor-to-ceiling windows were shattered, and the goods in the internal supermarket were trampled and broken beyond recognition.
Upon seeing this scene, he also rushed over to stop it, but a man casually threw him out. This man was none other than Spice Ginger. After motioning toward Hao Jian's room to Xu Zhu, Spice Ginger led his hundreds of brothers to smash up the KTV.
Xu Zhu recognized him and knew that what the current Hao Jian was waiting for was this business owner's stance, so he didn't let his men intervene either.
Instead, they continued their task. Although Hao Jian had said they could take whatever they needed, they really didn't know what to take. Money? They were not short of it. Things? They were not short of that either. Even KTVs like this, Spice Ginger could buy several in a snap of a finger. Given that, why bother exerting effort on something worthless?
Just smash it up, that's it.
As for the servers of the shop, as soon as they saw the fearsome appearance of Spice Ginger and his men, they scurried out of the KTV and dared not enter again.
"Heh, it seems you're the owner of this place, aren't you?!"
Before Xu Zhu could answer Zhao Da's question, Hao Jian's voice rang out, scaring him into immediately kneeling on the ground. Hao Jian's voice might have been light, but Xu Zhu, as a businessman, could clearly sense the anger within it.
"Yes, yes... I am the owner of this place, Young Master Hao, please spare me!" Sweating profusely from his forehead, Xu Zhu kept nodding his head, and then he pointed fiercely towards Zhao Da and his companion, saying, "It's all these two bastard's fault! Please, Young Master Hao, show mercy and spare this shop!"
"I simply can't believe you wouldn't know about these two's antics over the years."
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian shook his head slightly, first glanced at Zhao Da and his companion and said, "These two, I will definitely not let go today..."
"And you, I will not let off either. However, I am not the one who will deal with this matter today; there is someone else who will. Just wait here for a while."
After speaking, Hao Jian fell silent and stopped speaking. He reached for the snacks on the table and started eating them bit by bit, while Che Xiaoxiao, comforted by Zhao Yating, stopped sobbing. But her eyes, originally full of spirit, were now tinged with red, stirring pity in those who saw them.
Now that Hao Jian was silent, Xu Zhu didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of disturbing him, but he was puzzled in his heart about who would come to handle them.
But it was just as well, as long as it wasn't Hao Jian dealing with this...
Recalling the rumors that swirled in their circles about Hao Jian's personality, Xu Zhu felt a tinge of fear. Because all the rumors converged on one essence: cold and unfeeling.
Time trickled away, and the sounds of destruction outside never ceased. Xu Zhu's heart bled as the KTV, though not his main business, was still a profitable asset. Now that it was being destroyed, it genuinely hurt; it was the fruit of his labor!
"Creak..."
After an unknown length of time, so long that the knees of the three kneeling people had gone numb, the sound of the K room door opening suddenly echoed. Hao Jian's eyes lifted slightly and there, at the doorway, a female clad in a professional suit stepped in slowly.
A woman? She probably won't be that much of a threat...
Seeing that it was a woman, Xu Zhu's heart dropped with relief. As long as it's a woman, then things should be easier to handle...
But just as his heart settled, the moment he saw the woman's face, his own face gradually froze, and a trembling voice emanated from him...
"It's you?!"
The person who arrived was Che Xiaoxiao's mother, Guo Shuxian. The moment she received word from Hao Jian that her daughter had been bullied, she immediately interrupted the meeting she was in halfway through, grabbed her purse, and sped towards the KTV with urgency.
Her daughter had just been through an ordeal not long ago, and now there was another incident. Frightened, Guo Shuxian did not dare waste a minute. However, when she walked in and saw her unscathed daughter, Che Xiaoxiao, on the sofa, her expression also turned to blank astonishment.
"What's going on? Hao Jian!"
She had seen hundreds of people smashing the KTV outside, initially thinking it might be a fight, and worried that she might get dragged into it if she entered, but her concern for her daughter led her to push through regardless. When she arrived, it seemed as though the gangsters simply couldn't see her, completely ignoring her presence.
Relieved by this, she followed the address given by Hao Jian and found Hao Jian in the K room, where she also saw Che Xiaoxiao sitting on the sofa...
Looking at the unhealed handprint on Che Xiaoxiao's cheek, her anger began to rise slowly...
