Zhang Jingdong remained impassive: "Didn’t you just say 2 million?"
Chen Xiaojiang said gravely: "I initially asked for 2 million out of sympathy for her plight, hence the discount. But now that there’s a sucker like you willing to play the hero, naturally I can’t offer any discount!"
"What’s wrong, you had such a big mouth just a moment ago, and now you’re chickening out when it’s 5 million? Or do you think Su Man isn’t even worth 5 million to you?"
Zhang Jingdong curled his lips: "What do you know? The Lamborghini I gave her is worth over 3 million; I hardly need your petty cash!"
"However, I originally couldn’t be bothered to wrangle with you and was willing to give you the money directly, but because of what you said, I’ve decided to spend 5 million on a legal team to sue you."
"You say 5 million as if it’s settled, but who knows if there’s something wrong with the contract itself, huh huh... I’d rather spend all 5 million on lawyers than give it all to you!"
"By the way..." At this point, Zhang Jingdong glanced at Su Man and then said: "We’ll also need to charge you with sexual harassment!"
"Even though you’ll definitely deny it, with the many years you’ve run a modeling agency, you’ve undoubtedly done this kind of filthy deed more than once. I’ll start an inquiry to see if there are any victims who have been left with psychological trauma or gotten pregnant because of your ’casting couch’ practices."
"Find just three or five of them, and that’ll be enough to make you suffer!"
Chen Xiaojiang clearly hadn’t expected Zhang Jingdong to take this approach and suddenly felt guilty and furious: "You... you’re spouting nonsense... you’re slandering... I’ll sue you too!"
"Tsks, you’re panicking!" Zhang Jingdong was at ease: "Looks like I hit a nerve, got your tail, huh? My idea must be spot on!"
"Fine, just wait for it. You want to sue Susu, right? Well, then we’ll have a lawsuit against each other."
"If we lose, we just lose some money, but if you lose, you might lose your personal freedom! So you’d better spend more money on a better lawyer!"
"And by doing so, even if you manage to get 5 million, a substantial part of it will have to go to paying your legal fees. In the end, you might be lucky to keep 1 million for yourself..."
Chen Xiaojiang was now both furious and anxious: "So this is your game, eh? Alright, you little punk, I’ll take you on. Otherwise, you really think I’m easy to mess with!"
"I was just intending to take care of this smut..."
He had just said this when a hint of panic flashed through his eyes.
Because Zhang Jingdong suddenly kicked out, the foot landing right in front of him.
Chen Xiaojiang couldn’t have imagined that Zhang Jingdong, who looked so refined, would know kung fu, and even appeared to be very proficient!
He even felt that if Zhang Jingdong hadn’t pulled back, his kick could have either killed or seriously injured him.
Chen Xiaojiang had been in business for many years and had encountered several tough nuts, but he had never met anyone who played so irregularly and was as fierce both in wits and combat strength.
Now, with his teeth chattering slightly, Chen Xiaojiang stammered: "What... what do you want to do? I... I advise you to calm down..."
Seeing this, Zhang Jingdong laughed heartily: "Now I understand why you couldn’t take advantage of Susu; turns out you have zero Combat Power!"
"Just a friendly reminder, since you have no Combat Power, you shouldn’t threaten or insult others during negotiations. Otherwise, running into someone skilled like me, you’re likely to get beat up. Got it?"
Chen Xiaojiang, although defiant in his heart, didn’t dare to retort.
But Zhang Jingdong still didn’t let him off, raising his leg slightly: "Did you get it?"
This time, Chen Xiaojiang completely caved: "...I got it!"
At this moment, Su Man, witnessing Chen Xiaojiang who had just been arrogant and despicable, now so meek and submissive, felt somewhat uneasy about Zhang Jingdong’s approach but couldn’t deny that it felt gratifying!
Moreover, she once again saw Zhang Jingdong’s uniqueness.
He was also bad, but compared to a truly contemptible person like Chen Xiaojiang, he was debonair rather than sleazy, and he could even be considered a good person.
And what was most impressive was that he used his strength to punish these bad people and make them get the punishment they deserved.
At that moment, Su Man suddenly felt Zhang Jingdong was really quite handsome, not just in looks, but also in the way he handled things.
"Congratulations Host, you’ve gained 10 points of goodwill from the target person, rewarded with 20,000 yuan!"
Zhang Jingdong’s heart lifted with joy.
Finally achieved the goal!
He then lost interest in entangling further with Chen Xiaojiang: "Alright, go about your business, see you in court!"
"But I warn you, don’t come looking for troubles with Su Man privately anymore, or else I’ll make sure you regret it. Got it?"
Due to Zhang Jingdong’s stance, Chen Xiaojiang this time didn’t hesitate: "I got it..."
Only then did Zhang Jingdong satisfactorily withdraw his leg: "I must say, I quite appreciate your ability to bend and snap back. Go on, leave!"
Chen Xiaojiang quickly stepped back, and his bodyguard on the right immediately came forward.
Seeing that Zhang Jingdong had no defenses, his bodyguard looked for an opportunity to strike, and Chen Xiaojiang’s heart filled with anticipation.
His bodyguard, whom he had hired for a hefty price, he believed would certainly turn the tables on Zhang Jingdong, and then he could repay Zhang Jingdong for the humiliation he had suffered!
