Supremely Talented Tyrant -
Chapter 949 - 948: Don't Want to Live Anymore?!
"President Wu, you're here!"
From afar, Wang Hui spotted Wu Kai at the parking lot entrance, accompanied by twenty security guards. His face lit up instantly, and he quickly approached with his woman, Cen Yu, in tow.
"What the hell! Wang Hui actually pissed off Young Master Hao?!"
As soon as Wu Kai stepped into the parking lot, he scanned the area and immediately spotted Wang Hui. But even more striking was the sight of Hao Jian and his companions not far ahead. When Wu Kai laid eyes on that unforgettable face, his eyes widened abruptly, and a palpable sense of fear surged through his body.
Without hesitation, Wu Kai hastily led his twenty guards toward Hao Jian's direction. Initially, he was walking briskly, but soon, he broke into a full-on sprint. His guards watched in stunned confusion—what was happening to Wu Kai? Could the man approaching him be some incredibly important figure?
"What the hell! Why's Wu Kai in such a rush? Could it be that I hold a high position in his mind?!" Wang Hui, who had been walking quickly at first, suddenly spotted Wu Kai running toward him. His face lit up with a subtle smile as countless theories raced through his mind, and he convinced himself of this conclusion.
Haha! My days of success have finally arrived!
Wang Hui hurried his pace toward Wu Kai as well. Since even President Wu was sprinting to meet him, how could he take his time strolling? Wouldn't that be disrespectful to Wu Kai? His entire fortune and future hinged on Wu Kai's support. If Wu Kai favored him, he might not even need five years—perhaps three or two would suffice—to become a billionaire!
But...
When Wang Hui was just a meter away from Wu Kai, he stopped. However, Wu Kai didn't. Wu Kai completely ignored Wang Hui and brushed past him...
This sight left Wang Hui dumbfounded, and even Wu Kai's guards looked puzzled. Wasn't Wu Kai racing to greet this enthusiastic fellow?
"Young Master Hao!"
Wu Kai paid no attention to these people's thoughts, nor did he care. In his eyes, Wang Hui didn't warrant such an honor. Only someone like Hao Jian deserved it...
Seeing Wu Kai bow respectfully to Hao Jian and speak in a deferential tone shattered Wang Hui's worldview. Cen Yu's eyes widened with disbelief...
This... is that supposed to be the broke loser?! How could even President Wu treat this guy with such reverence? From the way it looks, Wu Kai seems completely desperate to curry favor...
The guards, seasoned at reading situations, processed their shock quickly and returned to their neutral expressions. Wu Kai's affairs were none of their business—it wasn't their place to discuss or intervene. Their sole responsibility was to ensure Wu Kai's safety, while everything else was best ignored.
This pragmatism was a survival skill honed over years of working for competitive companies. After all, corporate politics were intense—not only for employees but also for the security team. Offending someone in a higher position could mean losing their job entirely.
"Who are you?"
Looking at the bowed Wu Kai, Hao Jian asked in confusion. He truly didn't remember him—Wu Kai wasn't one of the top figures in Hua City, and Hao Jian couldn't be bothered to know such people. Showing interest in them was just a waste of time.
If there was an issue that needed fixing, Hao Jian would simply let the top-tier players handle it. Those individuals would mobilize their resources to resolve it, leaving Hao Jian free from unnecessary concern.
If Spice Ginger were here, he'd probably know who Wu Kai was, given he dealt with these types regularly. However, Hao Jian was alone today and hadn't brought Spice Ginger along...
Hearing Hao Jian's words, Wu Kai merely responded with a slight, unconcerned smile. Yet, the guards and Wang Hui behind him were utterly shaken...
This guy doesn't even know President Wu, yet Wu Kai treats him like this?! What kind of world is this? How could such a thing happen?
If they didn't know Wu Kai personally, they might have suspected an impersonator!
For a moment, their gazes toward Hao Jian shifted—from initial shock to outright disbelief. Wang Hui's expression grew even grimmer. Wasn't this guy supposed to be poor? Even if he could afford an Aventador, how could he possibly know President Wu?
But then... He doesn't recognize President Wu, yet somehow, President Wu recognizes him!
At that moment, Wang Hui couldn't suppress pangs of regret—the kind of regret that gnaws at the soul. He regretted offending Hao Jian, realizing he was merely someone clinging to Wu Kai's support for survival. As for Hao Jian? Judging by Wu Kai's deferential demeanor, there was likely little he wouldn't do for Hao Jian...
Even more regretful was Cen Yu standing beside Wang Hui. She felt like dying. Had she known Ye Chunliang's brother-in-law was so influential, she wouldn't have left Ye Chunliang no matter what!
Staying with Wang Hui in hopes of becoming a wealthy wife might take ages—and now, there might not even be such a chance. If she'd stayed by Ye Chunliang's side, his brother-in-law could likely make her a rich wife in mere moments with as little as one word!
Didn't Wu Kai himself just treat Hao Jian with such reverence?
"I'm the branch manager of Wanda Group in Hua City. My name is Wu Kai!" Hao Jian didn't recognize him, so Wu Kai promptly introduced himself while bowing respectfully. "I had the privilege of witnessing your charisma once at a gathering, Young Master Hao. I also happen to have connections that made me aware of your illustrious identity..."
"Oh? Alright, alright!"
After hearing Wu Kai's introduction, Hao Jian smiled faintly. He figured Wu Kai probably knew only some superficial details—but for now, that was enough. With a chuckle, Hao Jian said, "It's an honor to meet President Wu. However, your territory here does seem a bit problematic. I simply went shopping with my woman and ended up encountering such a rabid dog..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Kai's eyes flashed. Among all of Hao Jian's concerns in Hua City, the people he cherished most were undoubtedly his women. Hao Jian was famed for losing his temper for their sake—"raising hell for a beauty" accurately described him. From past incidents, nearly eighty percent were related to his women...
Now that Hao Jian had spoken to this extent, it was clear this matter wouldn't be resolved peacefully. Wu Kai quickly nodded, then snapped his head toward Wang Hui and Cen Yu, letting out a cold snort: "Wang Hui, I just signed a contract with you today, yet here you are causing trouble with Young Master Hao! Do you even want to stay in Hua City anymore?!"
"President Wu... I... I didn't mean to!"
Upon hearing Wu Kai's words, Wang Hui's complexion changed drastically. His knees buckled, and he fell straight to the ground, his expression filled with despair. "I... I didn't know he... he was such an important figure!"
"You didn't know?! Haha! What a convenient excuse!" Wu Kai sneered with anger masked by laughter. This was a golden opportunity to perform well in front of Hao Jian—and he wouldn't waste it. He let out a sharp snort and said, "Even Hua City's mayor wouldn't dare treat Young Master Hao like that, yet you, a mere small-time entrepreneur, dare to disrespect him!"
"Are you asking to die?!"
Hearing this, Hao Jian's face showed a peculiar expression. Hua City's mayor was none other than his mother-in-law—and Wu Kai's remark made things awkward for Hao Jian. The usually fearless Hao Jian dreaded these delicate scenarios involving family affiliations. As Che Xiaoxiao's mom, Hao Jian couldn't push things too far...
"The... The mayor?!"
This guy was someone even the mayor wouldn't dare offend? Wang Hui's face turned from despair to sheer terror...
As for Cen Yu, she was already drowning in regret, wishing for the ground to swallow her whole. The more Wu Kai revealed, the deeper her remorse grew. How could she have failed to anticipate how powerful Ye Chunliang's brother-in-law truly was...
"Young Master Hao, how do you wish to deal with him?"
Wu Kai didn't presume to decide Wang Hui's punishment. After all, offending Hao Jian was Wang Hui's transgression—it was only right for Hao Jian to determine the outcome. Having scolded him for a bit, Wu Kai turned to Hao Jian and asked for instructions.
"President Wu! Mercy! Please have mercy!" Upon hearing about his potential punishment, Wang Hui's face turned deathly pale. Desperation overtook him, and he stopped caring about dignity, smashing his forehead against the concrete with loud thuds. In mere moments, Wang Hui's forehead was bloodied...
"It was all her fault! She caused all of this—I'm not to blame at all!" Seeing his pleas ineffective, Wang Hui's restless eyes darted around until they landed on Cen Yu beside him. Seizing the opportunity, he clung to her like a life preserver.
He shifted all responsibility onto Cen Yu...
"If it weren't for her wanting to be with me, none of this would've happened!"
"Heh, what I, Hao Jian, despise the most are those unwilling to bear their own responsibility while groveling relentlessly and lacking even an ounce of dignity. I abhor even more those who push their companions off cliffs just so they can survive."
"And you? You embody both traits perfectly. So tell me, how should I deal with you?"
Hao Jian didn't grant Wang Hui the chance to respond but instead gazed at him with a sardonic smile...
