Chapter 176: Chapter 176 You Are Really Confident
The room instantly fell silent.
Everyone who was initially puzzled now stared blankly at Wu Mu, shock apparent in their eyes.
Li Hu, who had maintained a calm demeanor and had firmly believed that Wu Mu wouldn’t dare to do anything, even when Wu Mu approached, suddenly felt his brain buzz, blanking out.
Everyone was momentarily stunned.
Then, chaos erupted.
Holy shit!!!
Wu Mu actually poured wine on the investor’s head!!?
Isn’t that way too exaggerated!!?
Even Zhou Yu’s agent, the instigator, was dumbfounded.
He only thought that Wu Mu seemed a bit arrogant after his building collapsed, but he never expected him to be this arrogant.
To treat an investor like this over such a trivial matter of bowing his head!?
Does he no longer care about his future in the industry?
Whether Wu Mu cared about his future in the circle was uncertain, but he definitely hadn’t forgotten who the culprit was.
After dousing the investor Li Hu, Wu Mu without another word, grabbed another wine glass from the table and splashed it in Zhou Yu’s agent’s face, "Manager Zheng, this one’s for you too."
His action also instantly revitalized the initially dead-silent venue.
"Fuck your mother!" Where was Li Hu’s imposing aura gone as he cursed loudly, his eyes bloodshot as he charged at Wu Mu.
"Hold back President Li!" Yang Rongfa, who was also initially shocked, reacted instantly.
A verbal altercation was one thing, but if it turned to physical violence, their project would surely face trouble.
The scene instantly turned chaotic.
Yang Rongfa and a few employees from the company quickly restrained Li Hu, then glared towards Wu Mu, "Get out of here now."
Sun Yueqing, also in shock, came to her senses and immediately grabbed Wu Mu’s hand, "Let’s get out of here!"
Wu Mu glanced at Li Hu, who was visibly fuming, smirked slightly, and without insisting on staying, complied and followed Sun Yueqing out.
At another table, Sun Yueqing’s assistant and agent quickly followed suit.
Sun Yueqing hurriedly pulled Wu Mu along until the noise of the venue was no longer audible, then stopped, panting.
Once stopped, she was still somewhat dazed, looking at Wu Mu, and still partly doubting whether the incident had been a dream.
After several seconds, she touched her head, "God, are you possessed? How could you change this much? If you don’t want to drink, just don’t—why escalate the conflict like this?"
"You’ve completely offended the investor and Producer Yang now."
His assistant and agent were looking at Wu Mu as if he were a legend.
Having known Wu Mu through Sun Yueqing and having heard rumors that Wu Mu seemed different from before,
But no amount of hearing compared to the shock of witnessing it firsthand.
This wasn’t just a big change—it was like he was a completely different person!
The old Wu Mu would never have offended an investor over such a small matter!
Wu Mu, seemingly bewildered by their reactions, asked, "Where did I offend the investors?"
"You haven’t offended them!?" Sun Yueqing glared at him incredulously.
Wu Mu, noticing their expressions, chuckled and said, "Is it possible that I didn’t offend them, but instead, they offended me?"
"They offended you?"
Sun Yueqing paused slightly, looking at Wu Mu silently, "You’re really confident."
Wu Mu laughed heartily, "I guess so."
Sun Yueqing was speechless, "Even if you didn’t want to bow down, why didn’t you just leave instead of escalating the situation like this, making it irreconcilable?"
If Wu Mu had left, even if the investor remained upset, it wouldn’t have escalated to this extent.
Wu Mu clicked his tongue, "He offended me, and I still have to swallow my anger and let it go? I did give in a bit initially, but they were relentless. Should the good person always be at the end of the gun?"
Sun Yueqing frowned, "That’s true, but..."
She, of course, believed that Zhou Yu’s agent and the investor were at fault.
"But it was just a small thing about bowing down; causing such a fuss just because of singing a song or having a drink was absurd, not worth it at all."
"People do live in reality, after all, and reality is full of unfair things. Things can’t always go your way."
"Yeah, if it were the Wu Mu from a past life, he would have probably handled it more tactfully, especially since he didn’t have the system back then. Acting rashly might feel good for a moment, but it would have caused more significant damage."
"But now that he had crossed over and had the system, tactfulness be damned."
"He had seen enough companies that displeased him; just add this one to the back of the line, behind Geng Wei."
"That investor is definitely going to give you trouble next," Sun Yueqing sighed.
Give me trouble?
I was planning to give him trouble.
Wu Mu thought to himself.
Then before the trouble from Li Hu arrived, calls from his friends got there first.
He was still sitting with Sun Yueqing, who seemed to be the one in trouble as she sighed and moaned while Wu Mu reassured her that everything was fine.
Then his phone rang; it was a call from Lin Qingyue.
Lin Qingyue’s voice sounded amused, "Did you really douse the investor?"
Wu Mu was curious, "News travels this fast? You’ve heard about it already?"
Lin Qingyue laughed, "Producer Yang called me; he’s furious, saying what kind of person did I recommend, am I trying to sabotage his project?"
Now Wu Mu felt a bit embarrassed, saying this project was actually introduced by Lin Qingyue, "Director Lin, will this affect you?"
"What impact could it have on me?" Lin Qingyue didn’t care.
"Will it affect your relationship with Producer Yang and Wang Ren?"
"Don’t worry about that, how could such a small incident affect them?" Lin Qingyue didn’t take the matter to heart at all.
Tsk, rich kids do talk tough.
Wu Mu clicked his tongue in his mind.
Lin Qingyue: "It looks like you might lose this gig though; Producer Yang is probably going to contact you to terminate the contract. That investor said if they don’t pull you out, they’ll withdraw their funding."
Wu Mu didn’t mind, "If they terminate it, then so be it."
Although Lin Qingyue felt it a pity that Wu Mu’s chance for transformation was gone, nothing could be done since it had already happened.
With Wu Mu’s current abilities and popularity, finding opportunities wouldn’t be difficult.
Lin Qingyue continued to inquire about all sorts of details about what had happened at the venue.
Hearing that Wu Mu didn’t drink, she was puzzled, "You don’t drink?"
Wu Mu was even more puzzled, "No, I don’t. Haven’t I mentioned it many times?"
He remembered having mentioned more than once during dinners at the Star Agency and even when Lin Qingyue’s friends came over—his childhood friend had asked him if he drank, and he had said no at those times too. Lin Qingyue should have known.
Lin Qingyue did know, but she only thought that Wu Mu hadn’t wanted to drink before.
But now, it seemed like he was quite determined.
She thought for a moment, puzzled, "Why suddenly decide to quit drinking? Any traumatic experience?"
Wu Mu shook his head, "No, just never liked it."
"I see."
Sun Yueqing didn’t quite understand this, but Lin Qingyue, who had spent more time interacting with Wu Mu recently, did.
Such a minor issue had escalated to this point, it could have been resolved by simply bowing down.
From a worldly perspective, it seemed a bit unworthy.
But considering the person involved was Wu Mu... it somehow wasn’t too hard to understand.
It very much aligned with the character Wu Mu was now showing.
After hanging up with Lin Qingyue, calls from Zhou Yu, Wang Xiaotian, and Yu Ke soon followed.
Soon after, even Shu Mei and Su Meng sent messages asking about the situation.
Wu Mu hadn’t expected the news to spread this fast.
Though it made sense for Zhou Yu and Wang Xiaotian, as they were insiders, to know.
But why did Shu Mei and Su Meng know too?
