"Coercion?" Su Xiyang furrowed her brow. A senior executive from Hong Hai Capital is resorting to such despicable acts? So, refusing to cooperate isn’t an option? Signing is mandatory? He even brought over a dozen people to the company to use force? How utterly brazen. Do they really think Hong Hai Capital can do as they please in this country? The word ’lawless’ isn’t even enough to describe their behavior right now!

"It’s the first ti I’ve seen such a large company stoop to such lowly tactics." Su Xiyang casually pointed to the cara on the ceiling. "This entire room is being recorded. You dare touch and see what happens? Don’t think for a second I won’t expose your ugly face and Hong Hai Capital’s tyrannical behavior to the public one day."

If the video from today gets out, Hong Hai Capital will face imnse public pressure. Once it turns into a dia firestorm, any company, no matter how large or influential, would be dealt a heavy blow. They might even collapse and never recover their forr glory. This was Su Xiyang’s way of reminding Yuan Chong to tread carefully, lest his recklessness plunge Hong Hai Capital into an unrecoverable abyss.

However, faced with Su Xiyang’s pointed reminder, Yuan Chong was not the least bit nervous. In fact, he seed to have nothing to fear. He scoffed. "Su Xiyang, you seriously underestimate Hong Hai Capital’s public relations capabilities.

"So what if there’s video footage? Do you really think your recording will ever get out? With just a snap of our fingers, forget about your local Hangcheng City news dia—even the news outlets in the Capital City will obediently turn a blind eye.

"Su Xiyang, you know absolutely nothing about the influence of Hong Hai Capital! A small fry like you is trying to shake Hong Hai Capital? Aren’t you getting ahead of yourself? It’s like a mantis trying to stop a chariot—utterly laughable!"

Su Xiyang crossed her arms and retorted coolly, "If you’re so powerful, why go to all this trouble to make sign a contract? Shouldn’t you be able to reduce my company to ashes with a single word? First you talk about cooperation, then you try to force a signature. That doesn’t align with your company’s supposed dominance."

Yuan Chong was montarily choked speechless by her words, but at this point, he couldn’t be bothered to waste any more ti.

"There’s nothing more to say to you." Yuan Chong waved his hand dismissively and asked one last ti, "Are you dead set on not signing?"

Su Xiyang remained perfectly still. "Go ho and have your mother sign it. I don’t have ti to deal with a cur like you!"

"Get her," Yuan Chong ordered decisively.

At his command, the dozen or so n imdiately sward forward. One of them lunged across the desk, his hand reaching for Su Xiyang’s throat to drag her out.

CRACK!

Suddenly, the sickening sound of a bone breaking made everyone freeze.

SWISH.

Shen Fanyun had appeared in front of Su Xiyang. He shot out a hand, directly snapping the assailant’s wrist. Before the man could even react, Shen Fanyun slapped him, slamming his head hard against the desk.

Blood splattered through the air. The acrid sll of it began to fill the office.

Yuan Chong had anticipated Shen Fanyun would intervene, so he wasn’t afraid. I was prepared for a scene like this.

"Take him down first," Yuan Chong ordered.

The n shifted their focus, all turning to face Shen Fanyun.

BOOM!

Without a word, Shen Fanyun unbuttoned his suit jacket. He lashed out with a kick, sending the man in black at the front flying five or six ters. In midair, the man was like a kite with a broken string.

What kind of explosive power was that, to send a full-grown man flying five or six ters with a single kick!

Yuan Chong’s brow furrowed. This kid is absurdly strong. Before he could collect himself, another dark figure flew past his eyes with a whoosh.

A series of sharp, staggered gasps filled the room.

Everyone’s expression turned grim, and for a mont, they simply froze, forgetting to attack. Even Yuan Chong was deeply shaken. This guy... he’s not so ordinary person, is he? How can he be so strong? It’s not humanly possible!

"All of you, attack him together! I refuse to believe he can fend off all of us!" Yuan Chong snapped, shaking himself out of his stupor. He couldn’t accept that their entire group was no match for Shen Fanyun.

BOOM!

Shen Fanyun kicked out again, sending another man flying. This one was clearly more seriously injured; a series of sickening cracks echoed from his body as he flew.

Now, everyone truly panicked.

Shen Fanyun made it look effortless, felling them one by one as easily as an adult swatting aside kindergarteners. Forget a dozen n; even a hundred wouldn’t be enough for him to break a sweat against.

"President Yuan, this guy... he’s too strong. I don’t think we can take him."

Yuan Chong said nothing.

"Should we call for more n? Or maybe we should pull back and return this afternoon?"

Yuan Chong remained silent.

SWISH!

Yuan Chong felt his eyelashes flutter, and in the next instant, Shen Fanyun was standing right in front of him.

Wh- Yuan Chong was badly startled. Even with all his worldly experience, he couldn’t comprehend how Shen Fanyun had moved. Did this kid just teleport?

"W-What do you want?" Yuan Chong stamred, his complexion changing. "If we’re going to discuss cooperation, let’s just discuss it! What’s the point of fighting? Can’t we just talk things out? We’re all civilized people! There’s nothing that can’t be solved by sitting down for a talk. Resorting to violence... that’s not how decent people behave!"

He had thought a dozen n would be more than enough, never imagining Shen Fanyun’s strength would be so far beyond his comprehension. Now, with Shen Fanyun glaring at him like a tiger at its prey, Yuan Chong’s legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Talk properly?" Shen Fanyun asked, a flicker of disbelief in his eyes as he glanced around the room. "You show up uninvited early in the morning with over a dozen n. You resort to violence when you don’t get a signature. Is that what you call ’talking properly’?"

"I... I..." Yuan Chong stamred, his face falling as he scrambled for an explanation. "I was just... just joking with Boss Su. I had no intention of harming her, really."

"Alright then," Shen Fanyun nodded, a knowing smile touching his lips. "In that case, I’m just joking with you, too."

BOOM!

He struck out with his palm, slapping Yuan Chong squarely on the crown of his head. Yuan Chong felt his body seem to lift for a mont before he crashed to the ground, sprawling on all fours like a repulsive toad.

His mind went blank, and his entire body throbbed with a pain so intense it felt like his bones were out of place. Before he could react, Shen Fanyun had planted a foot on his head.

"President Yuan," Shen Fanyun asked calmly, "how do you like my joke?"

Yuan Chong could only groan in agony. It was too painful. He had already taken a beating yesterday and hadn’t even recovered, and now Shen Fanyun had thrashed him again without a shred of rcy...

"Do you have any idea who I am?!" Yuan Chong roared hoarsely, his voice cracking with pain and fury. "Aren’t you afraid of the trouble you’ll be in for doing this to ?! Ow, ow, ow!"
