Chapter 228: Jin Cunyue’s Total Concession
by xennovelEvening.
Xu Shaochen was sitting on the sofa with Linda in his arms, watching TV.
Linda was wearing a black silk nightgown with lace patterns below the neckline. Her fair, long legs curled up on the sofa, making her look incredibly seductive. She leaned against Xu Shaochen, occasionally feeding him fruits.
Xu Shaochen’s eyes were on the TV, but his mind was elsewhere. He was waiting for a call from Long San and the others.
“Knock, knock, knock….”
Suddenly, the door was knocked on.
Linda got up to open the door.
Standing outside were Jin Cunyue and his assistant.
It wasn’t hard to find out where Xu Shaochen lived; most people of significance in Jiangzhou knew. They got the address after asking a few people.
Originally, they even thought of getting someone to accompany them and put in a good word, but that person strongly refused.
Are you kidding? Offending Xu Shaochen and still expecting me to speak on your behalf? If I really go, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to speak again!
“May I ask who you’re looking for?” Linda asked while looking at them. Her Mandarin had become quite fluent.
Jin Cunyue was momentarily stunned by Linda’s beauty, but he quickly recovered and said hurriedly, “We’re here to see Mr. Xu.”
“Please, come in.” Linda led them into the living room and then closed the door.
Xu Shaochen looked at Jin Cunyue and his assistant, a playful smile curling at the corner of his mouth. “Big star, I thought you had already returned to Stick Nation.”
“Good evening, Mr. Xu. I’m here to apologize. I offer my most sincere apology for my behavior earlier today.” Jin Cunyue’s face showed some embarrassment. He did want to return to Stick Nation, but he couldn’t!
Xu Shaochen gave a faint smile, his eyes filled with undisguised mockery. “No need to apologize. How could you be wrong? Isn’t Stick Nation supposedly the number one power in the universe? How could you bow down and apologize to others?”
“Mr. Xu, please forgive my ignorance and foolishness. I now deeply understand my mistake. This afternoon, I went to the hospital and paid all the medical expenses for the firefighter, and I’m also willing to cover his subsequent recovery costs. I sincerely ask for your mercy and a second chance.”
Jin Cunyue bowed deeply to Xu Shaochen, showing a very respectful attitude, but inside, he was filled with anxiety.
If Xu Shaochen didn’t forgive him, there was really nothing he could do.
In Stick Nation, the entertainment industry was also quite developed, and various contract terms were clearly specified. The status of a celebrity was actually not that high.
If he couldn’t return soon and delayed the shooting of various commercials, he’d be breaching the contracts and would bear significant responsibility.
He couldn’t afford the consequences, so he had to find any way possible to return to his country quickly.
Xu Shaochen got up from the sofa, barefooted, and walked up to Jin Cunyue. He reached out and patted his face. In a calm tone, he said, “Remember this: you’re in Longguo, not Stick Nation. When you speak on this soil, use your brain. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you’re turned into fertilizer for this land. Got it?”
“Yes, Mr. Xu, please calm your anger. I will keep your words in mind. From now on, I will donate to the remote areas of Longguo every year to apologize for my inappropriate remarks. I sincerely ask that you grant me a chance to reform.” Jin Cunyue said sincerely, his forehead soaked with cold sweat.
His Mandarin was not good. He had practiced these lines several times in advance, but it still sounded awkward and stilted.
But that was also where his intelligence came in. Even though he felt unwilling and angry inside,
since he had decided to concede, he was going to concede all the way, thoroughly presenting the stance of admitting his mistake.
As a weaker party bowing down to someone stronger, there was no shame in that.
In fact, he made the right choice. With such an attitude, even Xu Shaochen was reluctant to vent his anger.
“Fine, now get out.” Xu Shaochen waved his hand impatiently as if he were shooing away flies.
“Huff~”
Jin Cunyue and his assistant simultaneously let out a sigh of relief. Then they placed the gifts in their hands on the floor. “Mr. Xu, these are just small tokens of respect. I hope you will accept them. I’ll take my leave now.”
Once the words were spoken, Jin Cunyue and his assistant backed away respectfully for a few steps and then turned to leave, closing the door behind them.
Looking at the gift boxes on the floor, Xu Shaochen didn’t seem interested at all. He told Linda, “Sell these and donate the money. Make sure to find a reliable agency.”
These were expensive gifts. Selling them would bring in over a million yuan. That’s not a small amount, and if the money was donated to a corrupt charity, it could easily be embezzled by some unscrupulous people.
“Boss, our Xu Family has its own charitable foundation,” Linda said, looking at Xu Shaochen.
Xu Shaochen was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had heard of it.
Seeing his reaction, Linda further explained, “The Xu Family Charity Foundation is quite well-known globally. We have provided aid to many impoverished countries and regions. Even in Longguo, in many remote areas, we have donated teaching buildings and libraries.”
“I see.” Xu Shaochen nodded. The rich usually engage in charity. His grandfather is the world’s richest man, so naturally, he wouldn’t be an exception.
……
Tenglong Hotel.
Room 205.
Inside the room, Zhou Hu was holding a tall model, ready to pounce.
“Isn’t this great! Isn’t this great!”
Zhou Hu’s face was filled with excitement, his eyes gleaming with a violent thrill.
“You’re amazing, so amazing. I can’t take it anymore.”
Although the model was only doing this part-time, her professionalism was strong, and she was very dedicated. Even though she didn’t feel anything, she almost wanted to laugh.
However, she still worked hard to make a delighted expression, shouting and screaming to satisfy Zhou Hu’s sense of conquest.
A minute later, with a shudder, Zhou Hu felt the world suddenly lose its flavor.
The model got out of bed, feeling that this money had been too easy to earn. With everything, including undressing, it took only three minutes to earn five thousand yuan.
“Handsome, you’re really awesome. Be sure to call me next time!” The model smiled slightly at Zhou Hu. She liked clients like this—short time, big money.
Zhou Hu gave a self-satisfied smile and patted the model’s fair face. “Little minx, wasn’t I great? Are you going to miss me?”
“Yes.” The model nodded, blushing, though she secretly despised him. If you weren’t shouting the whole time, I wouldn’t even have felt that you were in.
Do you really not know your own limits? Soon, the model left.
“Knock, knock, knock….”
A minute later, there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Hu was puzzled for a moment, then smiled, “Little minx, you really can’t bear to leave your Brother Hu.”
