How could this be?

It's impossible!

CEO Liu, such an influential figure, even in a major company like Chenghua Entertainment, he's one of the big shots! A major figure far above ordinary people!

Han Wendong was shocked to the core, his face filled with disbelief as he watched CEO Liu and Qin Heng.

He originally thought that as soon as CEO Liu arrived, this arrogant kid would definitely be finished.

But, unexpectedly! Such a thing would happen!!

CEO Liu was actually showing an unbelievable amount of respect to this kid, even bending over to bow with the utmost courtesy!

Just like a servant!

Why! Why on earth is this happening!!

Han Wendong completely failed to understand the current situation; it had exceeded his realm of knowledge, and beneath the shock and anger, his already serious injuries intensified!

"PFFT!!"

Another mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out. Han Wendong was now extremely miserable, on the verge of breaking down. He looked at CEO Liu and yelled, "Why! Why, Boss Liu! Who is this kid!?"

The thugs too turned their attention to CEO Liu and Qin Heng, equally stunned. As followers of Han Wendong, they were very clear that CEO Liu was one of Han Wendong's backers. And the biggest one at that!

But what was happening now? Han Wendong's major backer had rushed here only to completely ignore him. Instead, he ran over to that kid, acting all respectful and subservient.

Unbelievable! It was truly too incredible!

What is this situation!?

Everyone was confused, completely clueless about what was happening.

Even Master Yang and the other customers in the store were very puzzled. This seemingly ordinary young man, who appeared to be just a regular college student—who could he be? To make a highly influential person like CEO Liu so respectful? That was just too incredible!

"You're not qualified to know Mr. Qin's identity," CEO Liu turned his head and glanced at Han Wendong, his eyes like one observing an ant. He spoke indifferently, "All you need to know is that Mr. Qin is someone you can't afford to provoke. That's enough."

This person, not even I can afford to provoke. You, this little thug, actually dared to mess with this big shot; it's simply courting death, seeking your own doom... CEO Liu cursed inwardly.

Just now, upon learning that Han Wendong and his men had surrounded Qin Heng, CEO Liu was almost scared out of his wits. Because, just half an hour earlier, he had received a notice from the company headquarters stating that He Mingtong, who controlled 60% of Chenghua Entertainment's shares, and the father and son duo of the Wangs, who controlled 30%, had already signed contracts to transfer their shares to a young man named Qin Heng, free of charge. Furthermore, they included a photo of Qin Heng.

Upon hearing this news, CEO Liu's first reaction was disbelief. It was like a fantasy! These shares were worth at least a hundred billion, maybe even two hundred billion! To simply give them away for free!? Unbelievable! It was inconceivably unbelievable!

However, in just half an hour, he received calls from the company headquarters, the secretaries of the Wang father and son, and the secretary of He Mingtong, all informing him about this matter. As the project manager and a minor shareholder of Chenghua Entertainment, he was entitled to know about it. And as this information came to light, it was noted that Qin Heng—the one who had acquired 90% of Chenghua Entertainment's shares in one go—was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old, merely a college freshman!

On the surface, such a person would almost certainly be unable to acquire shares potentially worth two hundred billion in one stroke! This 'Mr. Qin's' background and origin must absolutely be earth-shattering! Even the He Family would have some reservations. It's really too frightening!!

In his heart, CEO Liu had already regarded Qin Heng as one of the most outstanding, strongest, and most formidable individuals in Beijing, and indeed throughout all of China! Truly, he was a personage of the highest standing!

Therefore, he dared not show the slightest negligence, all the more fearful of any blunder occurring on his part.

Those around were all shocked too! They looked at Qin Heng with disbelief, repeatedly pondering the meaning behind CEO Liu's response in their minds. Then, they all looked at Qin Heng with unsettled surprise.

A bigshot, indeed! This seemingly ordinary young man was undoubtedly a bigshot, or rather, it was clear that a top-tier force or family stood behind him, far exceeding CEO Liu's level!

With this in mind, those thugs were surely done for!

Looking at Han Wendong lying on the ground, continuously spitting blood, everyone shook their heads. In their opinion, Han Wendong was beyond saving—a mere thug who had offended a person of importance. He was doomed for sure!

"No! I don't believe it! It's impossible!!"

Han Wendong was still struggling. Looking toward the burly old man next to CEO Liu, he said, "Master! You've taught me martial arts, you can't just watch me get destroyed! Master! Save me! Save me!!"

"Bai Lao was a guest I invited, merely taking a liking to you and giving you some instruction in fist and foot," CEO Liu sneered, saying, "Don't get ahead of yourself. Bai Lao is a Half-Step Transcendence Martial Artist; what are you by comparison!"

Half-Step Transcendence! Half-step Grandmaster! Such a level, among the common folk of the secular world, could already be considered very powerful.

"Boss Liu, there isn't really any connection between Han Wendong and me." The burly old man smiled and shook his head with an indifferent expression, but then he continued, "Nevertheless, this Han Wendong did learn a bit of my martial arts, and now he has been knocked down to the ground. It seems that Mr. Qin's own martial arts skills are also quite exceptional."

"Bai Lao, what do you mean by that?" CEO Liu frowned upon hearing this, a sinister foreboding emerging in his heart. He said, "Bai Lao, you mustn't act rashly. Mr. Qin is a bigshot!"

As for Bai Lao, CEO Liu's feelings were actually quite complicated. Such a Half-Step Transcendence Martial Artist was truly too strong for any ordinary person! Normally, CEO Liu dared not meddle with Bai Lao; their relationship, if any, was merely mutually beneficial, without any hierarchical status. Whatever Bai Lao wished to do, CEO Liu was powerless to stop him.

"Rest assured, Boss Liu, I know my limits." The burly old man smiled, then took a step forward. Looking at Qin Heng, he said, "The Bais' Xing Yi Faction, Bai Tongtang. I wonder, Mr. Qin, from which sect or school do you hail? For someone so young, you've managed to severely injure a student I personally trained."

For Martial Artists, learning one's martial arts didn't necessarily make one a Disciple, but it did make one a student. And a student being beaten usually entailed a blow to the reputation of that martial art. Especially when the person who defeated the student was of a similar age! That was even more serious! If word got out, others might think that the martial arts of the Bais' Xing Yi Faction were inferior! Such an outcome was unacceptable to the always proud Bai Tongtang.

Now, he wanted to prove the might of the Bais' Xing Yi Faction.

However, Qin Heng couldn't be bothered to engage with him at all. He completely ignored Bai Tongtang. Instead, he turned to Master Yang and said, "Master, could you please make the noodles? My friend and I have been waiting here for half a day."

Ignored! Utterly ignored!!

Bai Tongtang had never encountered such a situation before! As a Half-step Grandmaster of the Martial Dao, someone known as a Half-step Grandmaster, wherever he went, he would receive a grand reception. He had never been ignored like this!!

A disgrace! A sheer affront of the highest order!!

Bai Tongtang was furious. His fists clenched tight, his gaze fixed on Qin Heng, he said, "I'm addressing you respectfully as 'Mr.' Don't be ungrateful! If a young man is too arrogant, he might end up dead!"
