Zhong Yousheng couldn’t help but straighten his back and sit up. Yan Jinyi had been fighting with them for a long time but there still wasn’t a clear outcome. Indeed, Yan Jinyi was quite capable.
“Dad, look at her moves, she doesn’t seem to have practiced Taekwondo or Karate. It seems to be a type of ancient martial arts.”
He had at least watched some ancient hero dramas, in which the people fought in styles that were similar to Yan Jinyi’s.
“Our culture is vast and profound. Although it’s the modern times now, there are still families that practice and pass down ancient martial arts. Go investigate the background of this woman.”
His instructions fell on deaf ears because what Zhong Jie was the most concerned about now was what if Yan Jinyi really won.
The Zhong family was notable in Hong Kong, and their forefathers of the past three generations were all casino owners. It would be a huge shame to the family if they were to become underlings to an actress!
“Zhong Jie?”
“Dad, in case this woman wins, do we really have to become her underlings?”
Zhong Yousheng’s face was a little sullen. “Hmph, it’s impossible, she hasn’t shown any signs of being able to win after so long.”
Yan Jinyi heard the conversation between the two of them clearly.
‘She’s obviously holding back and giving in to them on purpose. Otherwise, how can they fight for so long?’
Yan Jinyi was not really a fool either. Even if she agreed today, she would only end up offending the Zhong family. If it were at her place, it would be fine but she was now on their territory.
‘Damn it, is Tang Qing a tortoise? Why isn’t he here yet?’
Perhaps because they were angered by Yan Jinyi, the few bodyguards got more and more excited, so much that they even began to cooperate. Seeing that one of them was about to land a punch on her face, Yan Jinyi swung the feather duster onto the man’s arm in exasperation.
“Don’t go overboard when I’m being kind to you. You’ll be scared to death if I start hitting you seriously!”
She retorted while dodging. Finally, the tightly shut door of the room was pushed open.
Tang Qing walked in with an imposing aura and a cigarette in his mouth.
When Zhong Yousheng saw him, he quickly ordered the bodyguards to stop and squinted at Tang Qing who had taken it upon himself to seat opposite him. “Mr. Tang, why didn’t you inform me that you’re here? I could have sent a chauffeur to pick you up.”
Tang Qing pinched the cigarette and tossed it into the ashtray on the coffee table. He then leaned backwards against the sofa in a nonchalant manner.
“I heard that my dear Jinyi was taken away by you, Mr. Zhong. Why? Do you have a problem against me? You actually ordered so many people to beat her up.”
He was indeed there for Yan Jinyi’s sake.
However, he was curious as to when Tang Qing arrived in Hong Kong because he didn’t get any news at all.
Zhong Yousheng was old and experienced. Still putting on airs, he answered, “Miss Yan beat my son up yesterday so I’m just seeking justice for him now. Mr. Tang, what’s the problem?”
“Nonsense!” Yan Jinyi snapped angrily, pointing her finger at Zhong Jie. “Mr. Tang tried to molest me last night and I refused, so he ended up bringing more than ten people to mob me. I was defending myself and I still have the recording in my phone. Do you want me to expose it?”
She had really recorded a voice recording.
Yan Jinyi took out her phone, and Zhong Jie’s voice soon sounded.
Now, Zhong Yousheng began to lose his composure as he continued to glare at Zhong Jie. ‘What a dimwit. How can he let her get evidence against him after he hit her?’
Tang Qing crossed his legs and rubbed his chin with one hand. “Mr. Zhong, I may not live in this city but I still own some businesses. Are you forcing me to go against you?”
Zhong Yousheng’s expression was sullen. “Ahem, seems like it’s all just a misunderstanding. Fortunately, Miss Yan is also not injured. My son and his friend also took a beating, so we are considered even.”
