Chapter 360: Thus far

He didn't understand!

Among those present, there were two or three who had already had some grudges and feuds with him. They had gone to great lengths to deal with him, which he could understand. After all, they had always been like that, constantly seeking trouble for each other.

Once they had a chance, they would nitpick and keep pursuing the matter.

They just wanted to take this opportunity to wipe out the other side in one fell swoop.

These guys came to help Jiang Cheng, wanting to draw Jiang Cheng over to their side, but Sun Guangqi didn't say a word!

They already disliked each other, so it was normal for such a thing to happen.

However.

Chen Lao actually helped Jiang Cheng?

The more he looked, the more displeased he felt, and his opinion on this matter grew stronger and stronger!

He seemed to have reached his limit, so at this point he gave them a cold stare.

"Chen Lao, you know I've always respected you, but this time there's really no need for you to cooperate with these people and then come after me!"

"I still hope you won't get involved in these matters!" Sun Guangqi spoke to Chen Lao with at least some respect, at least he was speaking properly to him!

However.

Chen Lao's meaning was clear: "I actually think this young man is quite good, whether in ability or other aspects, he's quite admirable to me."

"Looking around, there are hardly any young people as outstanding as him these days. For someone like this, although I wish society would give him a harsh beating, I hope even more that he isn't being threatened by you!"

"You say, at your age, you already have everything you want—why bother opposing a young man like this?"

Chen Lao's words were filled with too much soothing.

He glanced at him, sighed, and then gave a slight shake of the head.

His words kept trying to persuade.

At that moment, upon hearing it, Chen Lao's face grew even darker.

"So you mean you're ready to throw in your lot with them and jointly deal with me?" Sun Guangqi finally saw through the faces of these people before him; he couldn't help but sneer, couldn't help but stare at them with extreme coldness, right there in front of this group.

He gave a heh-heh laugh.

As for the other few bigwigs in the Entertainment Circle, they snorted in disdain.

The group giving him a cold stare shook their heads slightly.

"No wonder I've always found you displeasing; now that I look, it's probably because there's a reason!"

"If that's the case, then it seems there's really no room for negotiation on this matter, so there's really no need for us to keep discussing it!"

"I think this young man Jiang Cheng is not bad; I feel I can't just stand by and watch him be insulted like this!"

One of them then stood up repeatedly.

He looked at Sun Guangqi with a blank face, and the words he spoke were more sarcastic than anyone's.

Upon hearing it, the other side's face stiffened slightly.

It seems the other side is deliberately trying to add fuel to the fire here!

Sun Guangqi's face full of displeasure: "I never expected that you had no prior contact with Jiang Cheng, yet now each of you is jumping out to help him."

"Are you trying to deliberately fan the flames, or just want to take this chance to show off your cooperation with him? I won't say it too bluntly."

"But I need to remind you here: even if you combine your strength, you still aren't a match for me."

"Are you really insisting on stubbornly facing me in this situation? That doesn't seem appropriate."

Sun Guangqi knows how to sow discord.

He, who had been full of anger just moments ago, gradually calmed down.

He sneered and slowly sat down.

He lightly waved his hand, signaling that his subordinates nearby could release Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng was finally released. He could stand up.

However, Jiang Cheng's attitude remained the same; he would not easily compromise with the people before him.

In his view, if he really compromised with those before him, his future would be ruined! Compared to those who secretly resort to underhanded tactics at the drop of a hat, he'd probably be doomed sooner or later.

This time, Sun Guangqi unusually did not continue to press for answers.

His eyes were cold.

He looked at the people before him and never expected that Jiang Cheng would have so many people around him, all stepping forward to help him!

Had he known this would happen, he should have been a bit more cautious back then. Now that they've discovered him, it's made him want to continue but he can't!

He also felt helpless.

"Chen Lao, I've always respected you; I think you shouldn't be involved in this! I also hope you'll leave this matter soon." Sun Guangqi explained again, his gaze light as he looked at the people before him, though his eyes held many warnings.

But Chen Lao had no intention of leaving.

"I think this guy Jiang Cheng is not bad, so I'm wondering… whether to cooperate with him." Chen Lao's appreciative gaze fell on Jiang Cheng, and the weak Chen Lao beckoned to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng adjusted himself and walked up to Chen Lao.

!

"Hello, Chen Lao!"

Jiang Cheng had heard of his great reputation.

Before, Jiang Cheng had only heard that he retired due to old age.

Unexpectedly, in his lifetime, since he could see the other party in person,

and the other party seemed to be quite favorable toward him.

Upon learning that Sun Guangqi wanted to deal with him, he actually appeared here together with others. When Jiang Cheng first saw him, he was still a little surprised.

The other party greeted him, and Jiang Cheng followed along.

"You kid, although this is the first time we meet, just at first glance my impression of you is very good!" Chen Lao is a person who doesn't mince words; he speaks his mind directly.

Most importantly, he now truly appreciates Jiang Cheng.

So—

He wore a faint smile.

Thank you!

Jiang Cheng was deeply grateful—he had shown up just when he needed help most.

Chen Lao's presence could resolve many issues.

Moreover, everyone treated Chen Lao with great respect, and every glance they gave him was filled with gratitude.

However, youngsters are inevitably a bit hot-headed and will do things that upset people; those around can understand, but from now on you ought to be a little more careful!

As he spoke, Chen Lao's gaze lingered on Sun Guangqi.

Can Sun Guangqi still not get it?

This guy is clearly doing it on purpose, openly calling him out!

Sun Guangqi felt great discontent.

What should have been a good thing has been turned into a chaotic mess by their arrival.

And he could only sit there, unmoving.

He regarded them coldly.

After that reminder, most of those present stayed silent, not saying a word.

Only Sun Guangqi said, "All right, this matter… ends here!" (End of chapter)
