Ethan Scott smirked, continuing, "You bet. Its time for a mouthwash." His audacious remark was surprisingly in line with the tastes of everyone in the room. Several men and women burst into laughter, complimenting Ethan, "Your words are quite amusing, young man."
It wasnt Ethan being arrogant; he knew that those who played with Alex Parker were not minor figures. They were people with the capital to be arrogant, and they liked those who were proud rather than timid and cowardly! With them around, Starlight Entertainment wouldnt dare to touch him today...
Who let this man be the famous Alex Parker, Mr. Chen?
Max Davis was furious, and with a wave of his hand, he shouted, "Go in and smash!"
"Id like to see who dares to smash?" Alexs voice was cold and hard, "Max Davis, I see that you have just come to Ning City, and your style is bigger than anyone elses."
Max Davis? What a good name. Ethan chuckled inwardly, recalling the mans notorious deeds from his previous life. He was a nuisance in the entertainment industry, harming numerous stars. Fortunately, he was from Hong Kong, and could act with impunity. If he hadnt offended a big shot in Ning City, he wouldnt have been arrested across the border and ended up ruined and dead.
Max Davis shuddered, staring at Alexs face with an expression of disbelief, "You, you... are you Mr. Chen?"
Alex didnt speak, but someone else in the room teased, "Mr. Chen, it seems that your face isnt working well, and some people still dont recognize you."
Sweat immediately formed on Max Daviss brow, "Mr. Chen, its me, Max, who is blind and has offended Mr. Chen. Please dont mind me."
Ethan didnt expect Max Davis to be so afraid of Alex, kneeling at the door, disregarding all dignity. But it made sense; before Alex came to Ning City, he was known as a Hong Kong businessman, which meant Max must have been aware of Alexs reputation back in Hong Kong.
The person in charge from Starlight Entertainment couldnt stay calm anymore, stepping forward and whispering, "Mr. Chen, this person is an employee we signed a contract with. This person... should be taken away by us..." They looked like they wanted something but didnt dare to.
Alex felt disgusted and abruptly said, "You can leave."
The implication was that they could leave without him causing trouble for them, but Ethan was not going with them.
The person in charge wanted to say something more, but Max Davis pulled him, "Lets go, lets go! Todays matter, lets talk about it later!" Max Davis glanced at him fiercely, and the person in charge could only smile at Alex and left with Max.
The group that had just been aggressive and fierce now scurried away like rats.
If it werent for the inappropriate occasion, Ethan would have laughed out loud, releasing his inner depression.
Once Max Davis and his group left, all eyes in the private room turned to Ethan, and despite his strong inner resolve, he felt a chill run down his spine under such intense scrutiny.
After an unknown period, it was Alex who finally spoke, "Consider yourself lucky."
Ethan thought to himself, indeed, he was lucky. In the previous life, he owed Alex, and in this life, he owed Alex again.
"Lets go, kid. What are you still doing here? Do you want to join us for a drink?" An older woman stared at him with a smile, lifting a glass of wine.
Ethan sincerely thanked them again before he hurriedly left.
The woman watched him leave and sighed, "He runs pretty fast. Such a cute little brother, I thought I could get some tofu."
Alex glanced at her coldly, "Men are not described as cute."
"Ah? Is that so? Oh, I just returned from abroad, my Chinese is not good." The woman casually waved her hand and placed the wine glass in front of Alex, "Come on, cousin, lets play another round."
Someone nearby snickered, "Sister Bi, youve lost so many times, whos going to carry you home when youre drunk as a dog later?"
Bella Parker rolled her eyes and started a verbal fight with them.
Alex pushed away the glass of wine and got up, "You guys play, its not interesting, Im leaving first."
"Ah, I knew we shouldnt have invited you to a place like this..." After the unexpected incident, Bella also lost the interest to continue playing, and after teasing a sentence, she didnt say anything more.
Alex walked out of the private room, and the two bodyguards behind him also got up and followed closely.
After walking out of the bar, Alex saw the young man who had just rushed into the private room, still standing on the street corner, anxiously waiting for a car.
He hadnt run away? Waiting for a car here is not a wise move. Alex raised his eyebrows and walked over.
Ethan was taken aback at the moment, as if he had seen the white casual clothes next to him, he was startled.
Alex?! He quickly looked up and saw that it was indeed Alex standing next to him, and behind Alex were two inconspicuous men, who should be bodyguards.
"Mr. Alex, thank you very much for your help just now." Anyway, its not too much to say "thank you", since he saw it again, Ethan thanked him again.
Alexs expression is always cold, he nodded and asked Ethan, "Cant get a car?"
Ethan was a little embarrassed on his face, "Its hard to get a car in Ning City in the evening."
"Come here." Alex turned and walked in a direction, Ethan was stunned, but he still obediently followed, he could be fearless towards Starlight Entertainment, but for Alex, who saved him and also has great power, he would show a compliant side.
Alexs travel is naturally a luxury car, the black Bentley is parked not far away, the bodyguard came forward to open the door first, and Alex gestured for Ethan to "get in, Ill take you back."
Ethan didnt expect such a big pie to fall from the sky and hit him. He thanked him again and got in the car first. After he sat in, Alex sat next to him. Ethans body was tense for a moment, its impossible, even in the previous life, Alex saved him, but at that time, he and Alex were just a passing acquaintance, which is like now, actually sitting together in a car!
He, such an unknown little character, has such an "honor", it would be amazing to say it out!
"Where do you live?" Ethan was still thinking wildly when Alexs voice rang again. His voice is as clear and pleasant as jade, if Alexs character is a bit gentler, then his tenderness when he speaks must be able to bewitch many people.
Ethan stopped his thoughts and reported the apartment address.
It took only about ten minutes for Ethan to arrive at the apartment downstairs. He had to thank Alex again and then got out of the car.
Alex didnt say much, and the two people seemed to have no connection except for this.
Ethan walked into the stairway illuminated by the moonlight, and Alex rolled up the window and ordered the driver, "Go back."
The black Bentley sped away in the night, and Alex sitting in the car suddenly reached for the mobile phone on the seat, did the young man lose it? Alex raised his eyebrows and opened the mobile phone screen, only to find that the interface was still on the video upload page. On a whim, Alex opened the video, and the picture swayed, and it was the bar private room just now...
I dont know how long it took, Alex finally closed the mobile phone.
Men are not described as "cute", like him, they can be described as "handsome".
The move of uploading a video is bold enough!
No... Alex suddenly thought of the guys face in his mind again, which is dazzling and beautiful. Well, you can also use "beautiful" to describe him like this.
The first thing Ethan did when he got home was to take a bath, wash away the smell of smoke and alcohol on his body, and then go to sleep to relax his tense nerves. Although he was not afraid in the bar, when he came home and relaxed, he felt a pain in his temples.
The next day, Ethan got up and looked for his mobile phone everywhere but couldnt find it. He was upset about where he lost it, but then he thought that no one would know who uploaded the video.
Ethan quickly went to reissue his mobile phone card and bought a new mobile phone. Who knew that in the afternoon, he received a text message from the person in charge again. However, the person in charge might have learned from Max about the consequences of offending Alex, so the wording of the text message this time was very careful, mainly asking Ethan what his relationship with Alex was.
What relationship? It just happened to help him and send him home.
Ethan knew that it was not easy to take advantage of Alexs momentum, so he seized the opportunity and replied to the person in charges text message, directly saying that he had found many linguistic pitfalls in the contract after consultinga lawyer, and now he wants to terminate the contract with the company. If the company refuses, dont blame him for being rude.
Ethan didnt explicitly say what he would do if he was not polite, which made the person in charge furious, but when another day passed, the video gradually became popular on the Internet, and even the police paid attention, and Starlight Entertainment was jumping up and down.
They all thought it was Alex who made a move, otherwise, who could make such a big momentum?
The person in charge who signed Ethan was scolded by his superiors, and he had to contact Ethan in a hurry, saying in one sentence: Lets talk it out.
Ethan didnt expect that Starlight Entertainment would also be so timid and fearful, and he vaguely agreed to let Alex be generous, and after terminating the contract without paying any compensation, Ethan rushed to the "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" crew to sign the contract and set the salary.
After signing the contract here, the police went to Starlight Entertainment for a visit.
The senior management of Starlight Entertainment scolded the person in charge again, "Didnt you say you went to terminate the contract with Ethan? Didnt you say everything was fine? So whats going on now? Is Alex trying to kill us?"
They didnt know that Ethan and Alex were just passing acquaintances!
At this time, no matter whether they kneel down to Ethan to beg for forgiveness or kneel down to Alex to beg for forgiveness, its useless.
