Chapter 2138: Chapter 2138: 2139: A Critical Moment

Seeing this, Li Fengjie also started to panic.

She was essentially a pimp, plain and simple, just facilitating connections.

Hoping they would take a liking to each other and then she could make a little margin in the middle.

But now, both sides had clearly fallen out.

She knew about Zhao Yongqiang’s history, he used to be a thug, fearless, capable of anything.

If Wang Lu were really made to drink the whole bottle, she would be poisoned to death.

“President Zhao, please, calm down. She’s just a yellow-haired girl, just started her sophomore year, she doesn’t know anything yet. There’s no need to stoop to her level.”

“I’ve already shown a lot of face, tried to toast her three or five times and she won’t drink,” said Zhao Yongqiang.

“You ask around in the circle, what kind of person I, Zhao Yongqiang, am. If she doesn’t drink this bottle today, she’s not leaving.”

“But this bottle is over 50% alcohol, and she’s just a young girl, she absolutely can’t drink it.”

“If she doesn’t want to drink, that’s fine, we’ll continue drinking. I’ll consider the matter as having never happened.”

Seeing Zhao Yongqiang soften, Li Fengjie breathed a sigh of relief.

Drinking a few more beers was certainly better than this bottle of liquor.

Thinking this, Li Fengjie elbowed Wang Lu, signaling her to toast Zhao Yongqiang and consider the issue resolved.

“I don’t want to drink any alcohol!” Wang Lu stood up, grabbed her purse, and prepared to leave.

“Thinking of leaving? No way!”

Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Zhao Yongqiang’s driver walked in from outside, blocking Wang Lu’s way.

“What are you doing!”

Wang Lu glared at Zhao Yongqiang angrily!

“Didn’t I just tell you, either continue drinking with me or finish this bottle of liquor, otherwise you can’t leave!”

“I’ve already said, I won’t drink a single sip!” Wang Lu was not afraid at all.

With her older sister backing her up, she didn’t need to be afraid of these people.

“Heh, that’s not up to you now!”

With that, Zhao Yongqiang gave a look to his driver, who stepped forward, grabbed Wang Lu’s hand, pulled her back to the table, and forced her down onto a chair.

Then he picked up the bottle of liquor from the table and held it up to Wang Lu.

“Drink up.”

“I said, I won’t drink a single sip!”

“Fuck, a stinking college student playing innocent?” Zhao Yongqiang sneered, “If she won’t drink, then let’s pour it into her, and today, let her see what true malice is!”

“Understood, President Zhao.”

The driver took the bottle, ready to pour the liquor in, but Wang Lu didn’t give in, she struggled fiercely.

“Still fucking fighting back, I like those like you.”

“President Zhao is impressive, I reckon only someone like you can tame a little wild horse like her,” said the long-haired director.

“President Zhao, let us help you out, this little bitch is quite disobedient,” the assistant director walked over.

The rest of the men all stood up and approached Wang Lu, restraining her arms, holding her in the chair, then watched Zhao Yongqiang with glee.

“We’ve got her under control, President Zhao.”

Because Zhao Yongqiang was the financier of the play, he was the most powerful person in the crew.

The directors and scriptwriters of the crew were very obedient, groveling in front of Zhao Yongqiang like grandchildren.

Zhao Yongqiang got up with a smile, then took the bottle of liquor from the table, smilingly standing in front of Wang Lu.

“You also don’t know your own weight, still trying to play innocent with me? Today, I’ll make you drink this bottle!”

“Wu wu wu…”

Wang Lu was still fighting, but someone was pinching her mouth shut, so she could only make whimpering noises.

Li Fengjie was trembling with fear and didn’t dare to say anything else, just sitting there obediently.

She also knew she couldn’t afford to offend a person like Zhao Yongqiang.

But Dong Yao, sitting beside them, took pleasure in disaster and said,

“Wang Lu, why even do this? President Zhao offered you a toast as a sign of respect, yet you throw face away instead of saving face. Isn’t this just rejecting a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit?”

“You understand the rules,” Zhao Yongqiang said, looking at Dong Yao. “Come with me tonight, and the third female lead in the film is yours.”

Upon hearing this, Dong Yao’s eyes lit up.

“Thank you, President Zhao, thank you, President Zhao,” Dong Yao said excitedly:

“I will definitely do well in this role and will not let you down.”

Zhao Yongqiang nodded, then raised the baijiu high and said with a smile:

“This Maotai is not something ordinary people can drink. Today I’m offering it to you, especially so you’ll remember.”

Wang Lu’s eyes widened, filled with panic.

But being held down by others, all she could make was a whimpering sound.

“Haha… Come on, today I’ll let you taste the…”

Thud!

Zhao Yongqiang hadn’t finished speaking when there was a sudden thud.

Subconsciously, everyone in the private room froze and turned their heads to look.

Standing at the doorway were none other than Lin Yi and Wang Ying!

“Sis, brother-in-law!”

Taking advantage of the momentary shock of others, Wang Ying hurriedly ran over.

“Don’t be afraid, it’s okay.”

Even with a belly full of fire, Wang Ying said nothing else.

At this time, it was important to first deal with the situation at hand.

“Are you two her relatives?” Zhao Yongqiang put down the liquor bottle and said.

“What do you think?” Lin Yi said.

“Alright then, since you’ve come to pick her up, I won’t say much. Take her away, we’ll continue to dine.”

Though a bit of a pity, Zhao Yongqiang knew this was as far as it could go.

If he continued to make more of a fuss, it would be too much.

“Leave? You were about to force my sister-in-law to drink, and you think you can just send us away without so much as a fart?”

Zhao Yongqiang looked up at Lin Yi, “She wants to be famous, wants to act in the film I’m investing in, I let her drink a bit, so what?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Heh… Bullshit…”

Lin Yi said with a cold laugh, “So this is your idea of being reasonable?”

“Isn’t it? This is the rule of the industry. If you want to make it here, naturally you must follow the rules,” Zhao Yongqiang said.

“The rule here is drinking, right?”

“Exactly, what, you have a problem with that?” Zhao Yongqiang said:

“Leave quickly, don’t delay our meal.”

Lin Yi didn’t speak further, he walked towards Zhao Yongqiang and picked up a bottle of baijiu from the table.

“Very generous of you, serving Maotai.”

“That’s the level we operate at,” Zhao Yongqiang said:

“And I also offered your sister-in-law Maotai, generous enough…”

Smack!

Lin Yi, holding the baijiu bottle, smashed it solidly into Zhao Yongqiang’s face.

“Ah—”

Zhao Yongqiang cried out in pain, clutching his head, and screams from other women could be heard as well.

“Dare to lay a hand on my boss, you’re fucking looking for death!”

Zhao Yongqiang’s bodyguard was quick to action, picking up a stool and smashing it towards Lin Yi!

Lin Yi raised his hand to block, stopping the stool, then grabbed the broken bottle and stabbed it into the other side’s abdomen!
