The person sitting in that chair must have an incredibly powerful background!

"Dabao, what's the problem? Why did you text me saying someone was causing trouble?" Just then, a criminal investigator walked in, followed by two other officers.

Seeing this, Zhao Dabao quickly rushed over. "Brother Song, you're finally here! This punk actually dared to hit someone!"

"Look at what they did to my nose! I want to sue them for assault! You need to arrest them all right now!"

Zhao Dabao knew he had bitten off more than he could chew, but the two men had indeed laid hands on him, which was more than enough to be considered assault. In his mind, he could blow this issue out of proportion to force them to back off from punishing his company.

At that moment, Chen Jiangsong spotted Chen Zheng, and his expression changed more drastically than ever before.

"Big Brother... so... so it's you!" Chen Jiangsong struggled to speak clearly.

If this had been in the past, he would have been his usual arrogant self, not giving Chen Zheng a second thought. But at this moment, he stood meekly to the side like a child.

He had to remember that his Big Brother, Chen Zheng, was the head of the Dingcheng Group with connections to the military. Even Mr. Yuan had to be incredibly polite to him, so how could he possibly dare to be presumptuous? He had to seize any and every opportunity to curry favor!

"This Tianxing Media company actually forced my cousin to sign a predatory contract. I came to see what was going on," Chen Zheng said calmly.

"Such a thing happened?"

Chen Jiangsong instantly became furious. He whirled around and slapped Zhao Dabao across the face, cursing, "Zhao Dabao, you've got some serious nerve!"

"My Big Brother's cousin is my cousin! And you dared to bully her!"

"I absolutely won't let you off today! Cuff this scumbag, now!"

At Chen Jiangsong's command, the two officers behind him immediately handcuffed Zhao Dabao. Only then did Zhao Dabao realize that this man's connections were astonishingly extensive. He had influence with the Bureau of Culture and the Bureau of Commerce, and even the criminal investigation team was at his beck and call!

"Alright, kid..." Zhao Dabao threatened viciously as he was being led away. "I'll remember your name. But offending me is the same as offending the entire Fan Family. Once I get out, we'll settle this score!"

After all, he wasn't just the boss of Tianxing Media. He also held a position in Xingyao and had an extraordinary relationship with the Fan Family. It would only take a single phone call for him to walk free.

Chen Zheng paid his threats no mind. It was merely the Fan Family. Even if all of Jingzhou stood before him, they wouldn't dare say a word.

"Big Brother, rest assured, I will personally handle this case. I will definitely give you a satisfactory outcome," Chen Jiangsong said, taking a deep breath and looking at Chen Zheng ingratiatingly.

"Very well..." Chen Zheng nodded slowly, then stood up and walked out with Zhao Feng.

Sensing Chen Zheng's cold indifference, Chen Jiangsong shook his head bitterly. These are all the bitter fruits of my past actions...

「Meanwhile, in the suburbs of Yunshan.」

Two figures dashed swiftly through the dense woods. Lone Wolf skirted a large tree, turned sharply, and threw a powerful kick. The tall figure behind him stopped short, crossing his arms to block the blow. He staggered back several meters before managing to regain his footing.

Xu Da shook his aching arm and stared at the man with foreign features, a cold sneer on his face. "Why'd you stop running?" he grinned. "Go on, keep running. I'm not done playing yet!"

"Kid, I have to admit, you've got some endurance. Not even the Iron Pagoda can keep up with me easily, yet you managed it!" Lone Wolf snorted, but his expression was filled with shock. This kid's cultivation is definitely much lower than mine, but being able to chase me down like this with pure physical power is truly extraordinary.

"What a joke..." Xu Da took a fighting stance, ready to act. "My endurance isn't the only thing that's impressive. I'm not just going to catch you today; I'm taking you back with me!"

Hearing this, Lone Wolf sneered. "Kid, do you really think you're all that? You dare to oppose me with your meager external cultivation? If I weren't afraid of the Iron Pagoda setting up an ambush nearby, I would've chopped your head off long ago!"

"Take my advice and scram. Otherwise, I won't be so polite anymore!"

"Fine by me..." Xu Da actually nodded in anticipation. "My brother-in-law said that if I catch you and bring you back, he'll teach me his Cultivation Technique! So, no matter what, you're not getting away today!"

"What did you say? Your brother-in-law? Chen Zheng is married?" Realizing this, Lone Wolf's face instantly darkened.

Yunshan is completely surrounded. A forceful breakout seems impossible. But if...

Just then, a rustling sound came from the surrounding woods, as if a large number of people were approaching. Lone Wolf narrowed his eyes, gave Xu Da a meaningful look, and immediately changed direction to continue his escape.

Xu Da snickered and resumed the chase.

Chen Zheng had just returned to the Royal Hotel when he got a call from Jiang Miaomiao.

"Cousin, I got the news! Tianxing's live-streaming platform has been completely shut down! Was that you?" Jiang Miaomiao's excited voice burst through the phone as soon as he answered.

"Tianxing has gone out of business, so your contract is no longer legally binding. In the future, don't you dare recklessly sign anything like that again! If I find out you're still live-streaming, I definitely won't hide it from Auntie!" Chen Zheng warned sternly.

"Understood!" Jiang Miaomiao huffed, then asked, "Cousin, you helped me so much. Can I treat you to dinner tonight?"

"Why are you offering to treat me to dinner?" Chen Zheng chuckled, shaking his head. "You're just a student, you silly girl. You don't need to treat me. How about this... just tell me what you want to eat, and it'll be my treat."

"I know you're a big boss, but don't look down on me! I've earned a little money from streaming. How about we go to Lili's Western Restaurant tonight? My brother has a blind date there, and I want a chance to see what my future sister-in-law looks like..."
