Chapter 960: Offended Some Heavy Hitter
Liu Chengcheng felt a sense of crisis. During the fight between the two of them, she had felt that Zhou Yao was acting strange. Because with Zhou Yao’s skills, he could have easily taken down that woman. If he did not let go, Bai Qi would not be able to break free. But he let Bai Qi escape. Could it be that his abnormality was due to Bai Qi’s good figure?
From her knowledge, Zhou Yao was not a lecherous man.
There were too many women with good figures and nice faces in this world. He typically did not take notice of any woman, but his reactions seemed quite different in Bai Qi’s case.
Bai Qi heard Liu Chengcheng whinings. She raised her head and took a good look at the man Liu Chengcheng held onto. This man should be Liu Chengcheng’s supporter.
He looked very handsome, Bai Qi gave an objective evaluation in her heart. His skills were good too. He seemed to have been trained at a proper facility. She was no match for him.
However, no good man would fall for Liu Chengcheng. Bai Qi did not have a good impression of Zhou Yao at all.
“Miss Liu, what do you want? Did I hit you, or are you just making false accusations? There are many witnesses here. I believe that anyone who is not blind saw what happened.”
Bai Qi glanced at Zhou Yao as she spoke. Her message was clear. If he was not blind and not blinded, he could ask anyone and they would tell him that she did not hit Liu Chengcheng.
Zhou Yao stared deeply into Bai Qi’s gray eyes. He raised his straight eyebrows but said nothing.
Liu Chengcheng knew that if Zhou Yao did not express his stance now, it meant that he would never express his stance. She quickly looked at the producer, “Producer, this woman actually provoked me publicly. I’m the female lead of this drama, and it was you who chose me for this role. Now that she’d provoked me, she’d indirectly provoked you. There’s no need to pay her for today!”
Liu Chengcheng glanced at the stack of money in the producer’s hand.
“You!” Speaking of compensation, a trace of disappointment flashed across Bai Qi’s cold eyes.
Liu Chengcheng knew that Bai Qi needed money. She proudly raised her chin and said arrogantly, “Miss Bai, I’m giving you a chance now. If you apologize to me and admit you’re in the wrong, I’ll let the producer give you the money.”
So she wanted to act domineering? So she thought she was justified? Now, Liu Chengcheng was going to use the money to get her back.
Bai Qi glanced at the producer. The producer’s expression was very troubled. It was obvious that he didn’t want to offend Liu Chengcheng. Bai Qi curled the corners of her lips coldly. She understood. She looked at Liu Chengcheng and said in a clear voice, “Miss Liu, the money is the reward for my work. It belongs to me. You’re not asking the producer to give me my money. Instead, I’m asking the producer to give my money to you. Consider it tuition money, use it to learn how to act like a human being!”
Bai Qi turned around and left.
Liu Chengcheng was so angry that she almost vomited blood. That woman!
Zhou Yao looked at Bai Qi’s fading figure. She walked with valiant energy. That round b.u.t.t was not moving deliberately, but it just so eye-catching. Any man who saw it would have some kind of dirty thoughts. It wasn’t just the woman’s eyes, but her figure and the aura of her fading figure were all very similar to the woman he loved.
Why were there two people who were alike in this world?
Zhou Yao glanced at the stack of money in the producer’s hand. It was not much, somewhere around $200. Did she need money?
Liu Chengcheng saw that Zhou Yao’s gaze remained on the woman. She gritted her teeth in hatred but tried her best to smile brightly. “General Zhou, I’m going to the washroom.”
Zhou Yao pulled his arm back and stepped forward. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Seeing that he’d left her without hesitation, Liu Chengcheng clenched her bag tightly. As she walked to the washroom, she took out her phone from her bag. “h.e.l.lo, Brother Hu, it’s me… Bai Qi from the Bai’s Martial Arts Dojo, give her some trouble…”
…
Bai’s Martial Arts Dojo.
Bai Qi walked in and handed a stack of hundred dollar bills to the Hall Master. “Hall Master, this is my pay for today.”
The Hall Master was in his fifties and was very amiable. “Bai Qi, you’re back? Did you have a good day?”
“Yes, I did.”
“That’s good.” The Hall Master took the stack of bills and counted them. Then, he took out five and handed them to Bai Qi. “This is your reward for today.”
Bai Qi revealed a soft smile. “Thank you, Hall Master.”
She took the money. Now was not the time to be polite. She did not have much money to begin with. The stack of money came out of her own pocket. She had originally planned to pay the rent with it.
Now that the rent money was gone, she needed to work even harder to earn money. Otherwise, she would be chased out by the landlady.
“There’s no need to thank me. Those who enter the Bai’s Martial Arts Dojo are family. Let’s go eat.”
“Okay.”
Bai Qi followed the Hall Master outside. At this moment, a person rushed in. “Hall Master, something bad has happened.”
The Hall Master stopped in his tracks and immediately asked, “What happened? Tell me slowly.”
“Hall Master, a group of people came over just now and said that they want to take back the Bai’s Martial Arts Dojo s.p.a.ce. He’s not renting it to us anymore.”
“What? But our rental contract hasn’t expired yet…”
“Hall Master, I told them the same thing. But those people said that they don’t care. We have to move out first thing in the morning, or else they’ll come and destroy our dojo…”
“This is outrageous! Where are they? I’ll go and reason with them right now. We live in a society with legal laws and system…” the Hall Master was going to head out.
“Hall Master, don’t go. Those people look very arrogant and very sn.o.bbish. They almost fought with our people just now. They have no fear. If they really make a big deal out of this, we’ll be the ones at a disadvantage. After all, we’re only commoners.”
Bai Qi quickly went forward. She thought for a moment and said, “Hall Master, Xiao Fu is right. Those people probably have nothing to fear. We need to stay calm.”
“How can I stay calm? It’s not realistic to move out tomorrow. There are so many disciples in our hall. I’ve been here for decades. I’m already used to it…” the Hall Master sighed.
Bai Qi frowned and looked at Xiao Fu. “Did those people say anything else? Why would they cause trouble for no reason? There must be a reason.”
Xiao Fu scratched his head. “Those people said that someone in our dojo offended a certain heavy hitter. This is our punishment!”
Offended a certain heavy hitter?
Bai Qi’s heart skipped a beat. She was certain that this was the working of Liu Chengcheng and that man!
She didn’t expect them to be such despicable and shameless people!
“Hall Master, Xiao Fu, something happened to me on set today. I offended that big star, Liu Chengcheng. They’re coming for me.”
“What?” The Hall Master was shocked.
Bai Qi quickly comforted him, “Hall Master, don’t worry. I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. I’ll go find them now!”
…
Bai Qi rushed to the set. They were shooting a night scene. Bai Qi found the producer.
