Chapter 536 Bai Kunyu

"I don’t have money; my accounts have been frozen. If I had money, I wouldn’t be asking you for a loan," Chen Guanglei took a deep breath, suppressing his anger. He didn’t have the right to be angry now.

"I remember after your dad passed away, you bought a Vacheron Constantin watch for eight million. It’s the one on your wrist right now, right? Since you’ve worn it for a while, sell it to us for four million," Dong Hao said.

They knew Chen Guanglei was broke but still came over, aiming for his watch.

"Impossible, I can’t give you this watch; it’s my hope for a comeback," Chen Guanglei quickly shook his head.

Without them mentioning it, he wouldn’t have even thought of it.

His watch was worth millions.

If he sold the watch later and put the money in the bank to earn interest, he could live better than many ordinary people without doing anything.

If he invested that money, maybe he really could make a comeback.

"That’s not for you to decide," Du Le and Dong Hao looked at each other, then forcefully snatched the watch from him.

"Give me back my watch!" Chen Guanglei roared in anger, trying to take back his watch.

"This is our watch, and you dare to snatch it?!"

"Do you think you’re still the Chen heir of before? Now, in our eyes, you’re nothing but a fart!"

The two were furious and knocked Chen Guanglei to the ground, beating him with a flurry of punches and kicks, making him scream in agony.

"Stop hitting me, I don’t want it anymore, the watch is yours, I don’t want it anymore."

Chen Guanglei felt that if he continued to be beaten like this, he might not die but would be seriously injured.

Now, with no money, he couldn’t afford hospitalization even if he were critically injured.

"Hmph, at least you know your place."

The two stopped and drove off in their car.

"Damn it, if I ever become rich again, I will return this humiliation to you a thousandfold!"

Chen Guanglei wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, grinding his teeth in fury.

...

When Xu Yang heard about Chen Guanglei’s predicament, he didn’t say anything.

All of this was self-inflicted by Chen Guanglei.

Nearing the end of his workday, Xu Yang received a phone call.

It was from Xu Zhen.

"Mr. Xu, tomorrow is the wrap-up celebration for ’I Am Not a Medicine God.’ Do you have time to attend?" Xu Zhen asked.

"It’s wrapping up? Where?" Xu Yang inquired.

He didn’t have much going on and could indeed attend.

"At the Regal Hotel in the capital, tomorrow afternoon at four," Xu Zhen said.

"Alright, I’ll attend," Xu Yang agreed.

Without any surprises, ’I Am Not a Medicine God’ would gross several billion at the box office.

This was a film worthy of his attention.

Moreover, it was the first film he truly invested in, in terms of direction and production.

Unlike his previous investments in Wu Jing’s ’War Panther’ and later ’War Panther 2,’ where he merely put in the money.

For ’I Am Not a Medicine God,’ he chose the director, the script, and even the actors, which made it completely different.

"That’s great, everyone in the crew hopes you can make it. They were worried you wouldn’t have time. Your presence will make everyone very happy," Xu Zhen said excitedly.

"Have you notified Wang Xiaocong and the others?" Xu Yang asked.

"You’re the first I’ve told. I haven’t called them yet, but I plan to right after this," Xu Zhen replied.

"Don’t bother, I’ll let them know myself," Xu Yang said.

If Wang Xiaocong and the others went, he would have company.

"That’s great, thank you, Mr. Xu," Xu Zhen said.

"No need to be polite," Xu Yang said.

After ending the call, Xu Yang opened the WeChat group with the five of them.

He mentioned the wrap-up celebration for ’I Am Not a Medicine God’ and asked if any of them had time to go.

Unfortunately, everyone had their own business to attend to and couldn’t make it.

Wang Xiaocong and Jiang Yuheng were abroad on business, and Su Wenbin had his mother in the hospital, so he needed to stay with her.

Lin Junyi got a girlfriend and was accompanying her on a trip to Southeast Asia.

Having no choice, Xu Yang could only go by himself.

That evening, when he returned home, he told Zhao Yuxin about going to the capital for the "I’m Not the God of Medicine" wrap-up ceremony and then asked, "Do you want to go with me?"

Zhao Yuxin shook her head, "I won’t go. I attended the celebration for ’War Panther’ last time, and I pretty much understand what these gatherings are like, nothing new. I’d rather just focus on work."

Xu Yang nodded, "Okay."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "Right, when should we set the date for our wedding?"

The date for the wedding hadn’t been set yet.

They had been discussing it these days, but hadn’t settled on a date yet.

Deciding to have the wedding, the two of them weren’t in a hurry anymore.

Zhao Yuxin thought for a moment and said, "I’ve looked over the calendar, and next year’s National Day is suitable for marriage. How about we set it for then?"

Xu Yang said, "Would that be too long? It’s almost a year away."

It was October now, and next year’s National Day was almost a year away.

Zhao Yuxin said, "It’s fine, as long as it’s set. Think about it, by that time, we’ll only have been graduates for two years."

Xu Yang nodded and said, "Alright, next National Day it is then. This will give us time to prepare everything properly."

The next day.

Xu Yang took a plane to the capital city and checked into the Lijing Hotel.

After having lunch in the hotel’s restaurant, Xu Yang went back to his room for a nap.

Since the wrap-up ceremony wasn’t starting until four in the afternoon, there was no rush.

He wasn’t sure how much time had passed when a series of phone calls woke Xu Yang up.

Checking the caller ID, he saw it was a strange number from the capital.

After answering, he heard an unfamiliar man’s voice, "Is this Xu Yang?"

Xu Yang was startled, "Who are you?"

The man said, "I’m Bai Kunyu, Bai Kunlin’s brother."

Xu Yang squinted his eyes, "What do you want with me?"

Bai Kunyu said, "You sent my brother to prison and cut off any hope our Bai Family had of saving him."

Xu Yang said, "And then?"

Bai Kunyu said, "I’m at the hotel’s café. Come down, let’s talk. Some things are better said face to face."

Your next read is at NovelBin.Côm@@novelbin@@

Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

It wasn’t a surprise to Xu Yang that someone from the Bai Family was looking for him.

If they wanted to talk, then he was ready to talk.

He got up, freshened up, and then went down to the café on the ground floor.

Not recognizing Bai Kunyu, he had to pull out his phone and dial the number.

Soon, he heard a ringtone.

Following the sound, he saw a young man waving at him.

The young man looked somewhat like Bai Kunlin and was undoubtedly his brother, Bai Kunyu.

Xu Yang walked over and sat opposite him. A server came up, and Xu Yang ordered a cup of coffee.

Bai Kunyu said, "Xu Yang, sending my brother to prison was really unwise of you."

Xu Yang asked, "How so?"

The other side had come after his company, so this was only a normal counter-attack.

Bai Kunyu said, "No matter how unreasonable my brother was, he is still a member of the Bai Family. The Bai Family is not someone you can afford to offend."

Xu Yang shook his head, "Sorry, but I don’t see the Bai Family as unapproachable. Of course, I won’t provoke the Bai Family for no reason. You need to get one thing straight, Bai Kunlin was the one who provoked me. I just made the necessary response, that’s all."

Bai Kunyu said, "Xu Yang, I know you have some capabilities, but you shouldn’t have done this. No matter what my brother did, you shouldn’t have sent him to prison, that’s a slap in the face for our Bai Family."

Xu Yang said impatiently, "I don’t want to listen to your unreasonable arguments, and I don’t have the patience to argue. Just get to the point, what do you want me to do?"
