Chapter 204: Making Trouble for the News Agency

~7 min read 1,221 words

Zheng Haoyuan knew his father especially wanted him to marry into the Zhou family.

So for this marriage alliance, Zheng Haoyuan made many preparations, but who would have expected that at the crucial moment he would be devastated by this news.

Zheng Haoyuan immediately said to his father: "I will definitely handle this matter; once I find out who is behind the sabotage, I will smash his head!"

After saying those harsh words, Zheng Haoyuan turned and left.

After Zheng Haoyuan left, Mr. Zheng then had his assistant follow Zheng Haoyuan, knowing his son was not someone to be trifled with; if anything else happened now, it would truly be irreparable.

"Keep an eye on the young master, don't let him cause trouble."

Although the Zhou family had clearly said the marriage alliance would be postponed, they were actually just waiting for an investigation result.

If the police say Zheng Haoyuan hit someone, this marriage will surely be called off; but if there is still a chance, the Zhou family might not refuse to ally with the Zheng family.

Thinking this through, Mr. Zheng immediately instructed his secretary to greet the police side, planning to spend money to settle the matter.

Those who were beaten were all ordinary people; these ordinary people could not earn several million in a lifetime.

Therefore Mr. Zheng decided to give each of them one million yuan in compensation, so they would keep quiet and not cause any trouble.

As long as they don't call the police, the situation might still have a chance to turn around.

Here.

Zheng Haoyuan had already arrived at the news agency; the news agency had long known that Zheng Haoyuan was the untouchable little tyrant of Hai Cheng, so before publishing these news items they had already made preparations.

When Zheng Haoyuan arrived at the news agency, hardly anyone bothered to look at him.

Zheng Haoyuan strode forward and smashed a table: "Where is your chief editor?"

Those news releases are all approved by the chief editor; if it weren't for the chief editor's consent, those news items could never be posted online.

Moreover, the news agencies of major websites all reposted it, each with its own unique perspective, and many news agencies criticized him for having violent tendencies, saying he would surely do something harmful to society in the future.

Zheng Haoyuan directly ran to the chief editor's office.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw two bodyguards standing beside the chief editor.

Seeing this situation, Zheng Haoyuan felt no fear at all, after all he was the young master of the Zheng family—who would dare treat him like that?

Zheng Haoyuan was about to swing his fist at the chief editor when the two bodyguards beside him quickly stepped forward and grabbed his arms.

Zheng Haoyuan never expected that two mere bodyguards would dare to block him; having learned some martial arts abroad, he had intended to give them a lesson, but in the next second they pressed him onto the table.

Realizing he was being mocked, Zheng Haoyuan's face grew ever uglier.

"Let go! Let me go!"

Zheng Haoyuan wanted to deal with the two bodyguards himself, but they had no intention of showing him any mercy.

The chief editor had long been frightened by this scene and stood in the corner; no matter what, he was still the young master of the Zheng family.

The bodyguards under Lu Jingqing were really too heavy-handed; if they happened to injure Zheng Haoyuan, the Zheng family would surely not let it rest.

"I tell you, I am Zheng Haoyuan, the young master of the Zheng family! Do you know who my father is? Who gave you the guts to treat me like this?"

Zheng Haoyuan struggled desperately.

And the two bodyguards who had been holding Zheng Haoyuan had no intention of letting go: "Our master said this news agency is under his protection; if the young master Zheng comes again to cause trouble, don't blame us for showing no mercy."

Upon hearing that, Zheng Haoyuan's face darkened.

"Your master? Who is your master? I don't care who your boss is; even if he stood here, he should give me some face! Let me go, hear me?!"

Zheng Haoyuan shouted loudly in the chief editor's office.

He simply did not believe anyone could be more formidable than his father.

He had been flattered all his life, and no one had ever dared to treat him this way.

One of the bodyguards, hearing Zheng Haoyuan utter such arrogant words, merely gave a cold laugh: "Your father, in front of our master, can only nod and bow; someone like you, a little brat, doesn't even get a chance to speak to our master."

Hearing the bodyguard's words, Zheng Haoyuan's face became even uglier.

"You're talking nonsense! In Hai Cheng, there's no one more formidable than my father."

"That's just your narrow vision; get out at once! If we find out you're causing trouble at the news agency again, next time we'll break one of your legs."

After throwing out that line, the bodyguard directly tossed Zheng Haoyuan out.

Zheng Haoyuan was turned away at the door, because he couldn't beat the two bodyguards beside the chief editor, so he could only retreat for now.

Zheng Haoyuan had originally planned to call his allies back and then come to vent his anger, but his assistant immediately recognized that the two bodyguards were wearing the uniforms of the Lu clan.

"Young master, this news agency is under Boss Lu's protection; you must not cause trouble."

"Boss Lu? Which Boss Lu are you talking about?"

"Who else could it be? It's Lu Jingqing!"

Lu Jingqing is not someone just anyone can provoke.

Although the Zheng family has considerable status in Hai Cheng, just as those two bodyguards said, even if Mr. Zheng stood before Lu Jingqing, he could only nod and bow.

The people under him certainly don't intend to provoke Lu Jingqing like that, so they could only give Zheng Haoyuan a piece of advice.

"Young master, I think it's better to tell Mr. Zheng right away; what you need to do now is think about how to face Madam Zhou tonight."

Although the Zhou family no longer welcomes Zheng Haoyuan, he should still show his courtesy.

"So you mean I should just endure being beaten today?"

Zheng Haoyuan's face grew ever darker.

He would not allow himself to suffer such a great loss today while the news agency remained completely unscathed.

"Young master, Boss Lu is indeed someone we cannot offend; since they said the news agency is under Boss Lu's protection, we cannot lay a hand on it."

The assistant said this earnestly by his side.

Mr. Zheng had him follow Zheng Haoyuan to prevent him from doing anything extreme; now at this critical juncture, Zheng Haoyuan absolutely must not become a hot search topic again.

Upon hearing that, Zheng Haoyuan could only suppress his anger: "After this matter is over, I will have settled the marriage with the Zhou family—just watch how I deal with this news agency!"

And what about Lu Jingqing?

In his view, it's no different.

He just didn't believe that he had really stirred up the newspaper office—could Lu Jingqing actually break his leg?
