Chapter 529

If it were truly as Guo Zhihao said, that Xu Tian had no power or influence and no background whatsoever, and could be bullied by anyone in the entertainment industry, only relying on tricks and luck to dodge crisis after crisis, how could that be possible?

Damn it! This time he was truly ruined by that idiot Guo Zhihao!

In fact, ever since Xu Tian realized the importance of martial arts, he had been training for one or two hours every day, and his strength had improved by leaps and bounds. Of course, there was still a large gap between him and true top-tier experts, but he was already much stronger than when he first started.

At this moment, seeing Chen Si kneeling and begging for mercy, he did not make things difficult for him again.

He understood the principle of leaving a way out for others; after all, Chen Si had not caused him any irreparable losses, and this was Huaxia, a society ruled by law. If something really happened to Chen Si here, the entire production team would not be able to escape responsibility.

Chen Si thanked Xu Tian profusely with gratitude, had his subordinates clean up the scene, and simultaneously indicated that he would pay the full price for the damaged equipment, while also compensating Xu Tian with a sum for "mental distress."

"Xu Ge, I will send someone to deliver new equipment to you first thing tomorrow morning. Also, if the filming locations you rent in the future are on my turf, I will waive all fees for you!"

"Since we can't film today anyway, why don't I play the host and treat the entire production team to a late-night snack as an apology."

"No need for the late-night snack." Xu Tian waved his hand, "You go to the hospital with your subordinates first."

"Thank you, Xu Ge! Thank you, Xu Ge!" Seeing Xu Tian refuse, Chen Si did not insist further.

As he was leaving, he looked at Fengwu with trepidation and couldn't help but ask.

"Allow me to be so bold as to ask, young lady, which sect do you belong to?"

This woman's martial arts skills meant she was either from a certain sect or someone from the dark forces.

And judging by the way she drew blood with every move, Chen Si even had a terrifying guess: this woman was very likely a bounty hunter who worked for money.

But even for a bounty hunter, being able to hire an expert of this level was definitely not something an ordinary person could do.

It seemed this Xu Tian was truly no ordinary person.

"I don't belong to any sect; I obey all orders from the boss." Fengwu was stern and humorless, her tone even carrying a hint of pride, as if being able to serve Xu Tian was a great honor.

Unable to find out Fengwu's identity, Chen Si sheepishly took his people and left.

And Guo Zhihao's secretary, who had disguised himself as a production team staff member, only walked out tremblingly and slipped away through the back door after Xu Tian and the others had all left.

Because of this episode, the evening's recording was forced to be interrupted, and Xu Tian drove Yan Qingxue home.

On the way, Yan Qingxue asked curiously.

"Xu Tian, tell me the truth, where did you find that woman?"

Just now, with many eyes and ears around, Yan Qingxue saw that Xu Tian was unwilling to elaborate, so she didn't press him.

Now that it was just the two of them in the car, Yan Qingxue still couldn't resist her curiosity.

"She wasn't found by me; she's someone my girlfriend knows." Xu Tian simply pulled out Tang Bingyan as a shield, "When the incident happened, I happened to be with my girlfriend, and when she learned that someone was causing trouble, she sent people over."

Yan Qingxue was still somewhat doubtful, but then she remembered Xu Tian had once said his girlfriend worked at the Tang Group, so perhaps it was by relying on the Tang family's connections that he found this helper.

But she still had one question: when Xu Tian appeared, he had blocked a palm strike from that woman.

"Then when did you also become so capable?"

Xu Tian said: "I was the vice president of the Taekwondo club in college, and when I was at the Xu family, I was arranged to learn combat arts from a young age. You know, wealthy families are always worried about their children being kidnapped. Although the Xu family can't be counted as a top-tier wealthy family, they are at least nouveau riche, so they also attach great importance to this aspect."

Xu Tian did not lie about this; his foster father Xu Pingfeng had let Xu Rixin go learn Taekwondo, Sanda, and combat from a young age, but he would never sign him up for any extracurricular interest classes.

If Xu Tian wanted to learn, he could only hide in the courtyard and watch from afar when Xu Rixin came home to practice.

But Xu Rixin was originally a lazy person who loved ease, and after persisting for two months, he feigned illness and refused to go to the Taekwondo club again. Xu Pingfeng had already paid the tuition for those four high-end dojos for a year and couldn't bear to let the money go to waste, which was why he bestowed the opportunity upon Xu Tian.

Perhaps because too much time had passed, when Xu Tian occasionally recalled his childhood, he could only remember some scattered fragments, and as for his feelings at the time, he couldn't really recall them.

It was as if he were looking at someone else's past, feeling exceptionally strange.

Xu Tian didn't know if this was a side effect of his rebirth, but in any case, those days living in the Xu family were not precious memories, so he didn't take them to heart.

"Hmm, I also learned it when I was a child, and my talent was even better than that brat Yan Hongyu. Later, my second aunt went to my grandmother to badmouth me, saying that as a girl, I would never get married if I spent all day fighting and killing. As a result, she forced me to transfer from the Taekwondo gym to a flower arranging academy."

Yan Qingxue felt disgusted whenever she thought of the things Yan Ershen had done.

"Their whole family writes their scheming on their faces. Isn't it just because they hope I can get married off early so I won't threaten them? Hmph, I just won't let them have their way!"

"You are a member of the Yan family; even if you get married and start a family, you should have your share of the Yan family's assets." Xu Tian said seriously, "We don't want what isn't ours, but the things that belong to you and your godparents, not a single cent can be missing."

"What you say also makes sense." Yan Qingxue nodded, "Before, I didn't want to have anything more to do with them, and I didn't care about that little bit of property anyway. But now that I think about it, why should I? My father did so much for the company, and he was fired just like that."

"If it weren't for my father opening up the markets for several emerging industries, the Yan Group wouldn't have its current scale!"

The more Yan Qingxue spoke, the angrier she became, and she scolded Yan Ershu's family again before letting Xu Tian leave.

In a high-end villa in the central district.

Guo Zhihao was hugging a newly signed young artist and drinking when he suddenly received a call from his secretary.

He pushed the young artist clinging to him away a little and grabbed his phone, placing it to his ear.

"Is the matter settled? That brat Xu Tian should already be beaten black and blue and at the hospital getting bandaged, right? Hahahaha..."

Chen Si's subordinates were no pushovers, and with him personally taking action, this time he would definitely leave a psychological shadow on that pretty boy.

Whenever Guo Zhihao thought of Xu Tian being beaten until he couldn't take care of himself and having to kneel and beg for mercy, he felt thrilled, and even wanted to find a few reporters to go to the hospital to take pictures of his ugly state and put them online.

"President Guo... Xu Tian, he..."

The little secretary stammered, and finally spoke with difficulty.

"He is fine..."

"Fine? What do you mean?" Hearing this, Guo Zhihao bounced up from the sofa, "Chen Si personally took people there, how could he be fine?"

"Is that brat not at the recording site?"

"Damn it, what kind of dog shit luck does he have to be able to escape a disaster every time?"
