Chapter 461: Entering the Venue

In a strained voice, Boss Hu asked cautiously,

"Son, are they the ones you provoked?"

The man with the earring nodded as if it were a given and huffed,

"Yes, Dad! It's these sons of bitches! They even hurt me. Hurry up and take care of them!"

His cronies all chimed in, nodding in agreement, hoping Boss Hu would step in and teach these arrogant youths who didn't know their place a lesson.

The two roommates also wore cold smirks, their eyes filled with ridicule as they looked at Jiang Wanyu.

Jiang Wanyu was extremely worried. She gripped Qin Tuo's hand tightly, her palm sweating.

But Qin Tuo remained perfectly calm and composed, not looking the least bit worried.

Boss Hu's eyes nearly rolled back in his head as he almost fainted on the spot!

Luckily, the man with the earring reacted quickly enough to catch his father.

Boss Hu gasped for air, his face deathly pale.

The man with the earring asked in confusion,

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Boss Hu shot him a vicious glare and, without another word, swung his hand.

SLAP!

The slap left the man with the earring completely stunned. He couldn't process what was happening.

Then, without a moment's hesitation, Boss Hu dropped to his knees before Qin Tuo.

"Oh my god, th-th-this… Dad, why are you kneeling?"

The man with the earring was utterly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning, frozen in place like a wooden statue.

All his cronies' eyes went wide, looking as if they were about to pop out of their sockets!

They simply couldn't understand why the great Boss Hu would be kneeling to someone.

Kneeling on the ground, Boss Hu trembled violently and began to beg for mercy.

"Mr. Qin, Miss Chen, it's all my good-for-nothing son's fault! He was blind and offended you. I beg you, please be magnanimous and don't lower yourselves to his level!"

Boss Hu was a Ming City local. Of course, he knew exactly what kind of people Chen Man Ni and Qin Tuo were.

At that moment, he wished he could beat his bastard son to death!

Seeing his father's attitude, a chill ran through the man with the earring.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew he had provoked someone terrifying.

Even his own father had to grovel and beg for mercy before this person!

Instantly, fear made the man with the earring's knees buckle, and he dropped to the ground before Qin Tuo.

Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded. Jiang Wanyu's two roommates stood with their mouths agape, unable to believe their eyes.

Qin Tuo's expression grew cold. He let out a quiet scoff but said nothing.

Seeing Qin Tuo's reaction, Boss Hu was even more terrified and pleaded relentlessly, hoping Qin Tuo would show some mercy.

Just then, Xue Qingqing walked over.

The moment she appeared in public, she caused a wave of screams!

The fans on-site had just realized that the star of the concert, the goddess of their hearts, was standing right in front of them.

Xue Qingqing's heart leaped with joy when she saw Qin Tuo had arrived!

But then she noticed something seemed to be wrong. Her brow furrowed as she asked,

"Mr. Qin, has something happened?"

Qin Tuo slowly recounted what had just happened.

Instantly, Xue Qingqing's expression turned grim.

This Boss Hu's son had offended Qin Tuo, which meant he had embarrassed her as well.

"Miss Xue, I beg you, please put in a good word for me with Mr. Qin!"

Boss Hu turned to plead with Xue Qingqing.

He thought that considering all the hard work he had put in for her, even if it wasn't particularly meritorious, Xue Qingqing would surely help him out.

But to his surprise, not only did Xue Qingqing not plead with Qin Tuo on his behalf, she instead said decisively,

"Boss Hu, from this day forward, my Xue Family is terminating all cooperation with you. Our families will have nothing to do with each other ever again."

Hearing Xue Qingqing's words, Boss Hu nearly collapsed, his eyes filled with intense despair.

Beside him, his son knew he had caused a huge disaster. He just kept kowtowing and begging, trembling so much he couldn't utter a single word.

It turned out that Boss Hu's most profitable business was mining on the Xue Family's mineral veins and then reselling the ore.

Losing this business would be an absolutely fatal blow to the Hu Family's finances.

Boss Hu came to his senses and begged desperately, tears and snot streaming down his face.

"Miss Xue, I know I was wrong! Please, give us another chance!"

But no matter how much he begged, it was useless. Xue Qingqing had made up her mind to terminate all ties with the Hu Family.

She knew that perhaps only by doing this could she appease Qin Tuo.

Boss Hu gradually fell into despair. In the end, his heart was like dead ashes, and he could only shake his head and laugh miserably.

The man with the earring also knew he was finished. 'They'll probably break my legs when I get home!'

The group of thuggish cronies had long since seen that things were going south and had scattered in all directions.

Only Jiang Wanyu's two roommates were left, standing awkwardly in place.

Jiang Wanyu had witnessed the whole thing and was too shocked to say a word.

Qin Tuo, however, took her hand and walked forward to greet Xue Qingqing.

"I'm so sorry, Qin Tuo. I let these people spoil your evening."

Xue Qingqing said with an apologetic smile.

Qin Tuo shook his head and smiled back.

"It's fine. Just a few clueless fools. They didn't bother me."

At this moment, Xue Qingqing noticed Qin Tuo was holding a young woman's hand, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

She couldn't help but ask,

"Mr. Qin, this is?"

Qin Tuo replied with a smile,

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you. This is my cousin. Her name is Jiang Wanyu."

After learning that Jiang Wanyu was Qin Tuo's cousin, Xue Qingqing let out a huge sigh of relief deep down.

Immediately, a smile spread across her face, and she enthusiastically came forward to take Jiang Wanyu's hand.

Jiang Wanyu was completely taken aback. Being treated so politely by a huge star like Xue Qingqing was something she wasn't used to.

Xue Qingqing gave Jiang Wanyu a gentle smile and said,

"Wanyu, let me take you inside with me!"

With that, she took Jiang Wanyu by the hand, intending to lead her into the venue.

All the fans watching this scene were overcome with envy!

Many people couldn't even get a ticket, yet Jiang Wanyu was being personally escorted into the concert by Xue Qingqing herself. Such treatment was unparalleled.

Jiang Wanyu's two roommates stood rooted to the spot, their eyes filled with shock.

When they saw Jiang Wanyu about to enter the venue with Xue Qingqing, the two of them finally snapped out of it and hurried to follow!
