The next day, Jiang Yuning prepared to rush over to Huayi Brothers in Beijing to meet up with Wang Zhonglei and Xu Ke. They were going to discuss' Di Renjie: The Dragon King of Shengdu '. Everyone else thought that the Wang brothers were specifically promoting Xu Zhixuan's film. But, in reality, Huayi Brothers wasn't the only investor. Xu Zhixuan also invested in half of the film, but this was never exposed.
However, today, Xu Zhixuan was originally in a good mood and was preparing to go to the airport when he received a phone call. His mood suddenly became irritable, and the caller was Xu Xian. Her words made Xu Zhixuan very angry.
"Uncle, I am very disappointed in you!"
Since he was young, Xu Zhixuan was an omnipotent god in Xu Xian's eyes. There was nothing that Xu Zhixuan couldn't solve, and he had always regarded Xu Zhixuan as his idol. However, this time, it seemed that Xu Xian's heart was broken, and his tone was full of disappointment.
"I say, Baobao, what's wrong?" Xu Zhixuan was confused. It didn't seem like anything had happened to him. Recently, he had been staying in the crew and filming. Even the so-called scandal with Zhou Gongzi had been explained clearly. In the same crew, it was normal for male and female actors to have scandals. It wasn't like this had never happened before. Xu Xian shouldn't be disappointed in him.
"Uncle, you are not a man. You are not responsible!"
Xu Xian seemed to be really angry, but Xu Zhi Xuan didn't understand why. Not long ago, when he talked to her on the phone, she was still fine. How did she become like this after just a few days? Did he do something unforgivable? She even said that he wasn't a man and that he was irresponsible.
"Baby, don't be angry. Tell uncle what's going on. I'm still confused!"
Xu Xian didn't know whether Xu Zhixuan really didn't know or not, but she called to stand up for Song Ji-hyo. After all, she had already recognized Song Ji-hyo as Xu Zhixuan's girlfriend and future aunt.
"Why didn't you come back? Don't you know that aunt has been very bad recently?"
Xu Zhixuan's eyes immediately sharpened. Could it be that Song Ji-hyo had a problem? Could it be that the people he sent to protect Song Ji-hyo didn't protect her well? Could it be that he had to relive the pain of the past? Xu Zhixuan's right hand clenched a few scratches on the leather seat.
"Park the car to the side, now!"
Although Choi Ho-woon didn't know what happened, he quickly ordered the driver to park the car by the side of the road. Then, he drove Lim Yoon-jin and the others out of the car and let Xu Zhixuan sit alone in the car. He watched the movements in the car nervously.
"Tell me, what happened to your aunt?" Xu Zhixuan's voice was a little trembling with coldness. Xu Xian on the other side of the phone could feel it. He frowned unconsciously. Did uncle really not know what happened?
"Someone pursued aunt. After being rejected, he kept pestering her, which made aunt very angry. Moreover, that person recently announced in front of the reporters that uncle had actually broken up with aunt and that he was her new boyfriend. However, aunt didn't want to make things difficult for uncle, so she didn't announce that she had broken up with you for the time being."
Xu Zhixuan couldn't believe that the other party actually dared to do this. What was the meaning of this? Was this a slap to his face? Moreover, why didn't Song Ji-hyo tell him? Could it be that someone in Korea pressured her not to inform him? From what Xu Xian said, the news had already spread throughout Korea. Why didn't he know?
"Choi Ho-woon!! Get in here!!! "
The people standing outside the car couldn't help but tremble, especially Choi Ho-woon. He seemed to have realized something and walked towards the nanny van with trembling legs. Fortunately, the place where the car was parked was relatively remote. Other than the passing cars, there weren't many pedestrians, so it wouldn't attract a crowd.
Bang!!
The car door was slammed shut. The few assistants who heard it were shocked. Those who could enter Xu Zhixuan's team were all carefully selected and were absolutely loyal. Moreover, they all knew Xu Zhixuan's position and power.
"Speak!" Xu Zhixuan closed his eyes and held his phone tightly in his hand. After hanging up the call with Xu Xian, Xu Zhixuan's heart was not calm at all. It was like an active volcano waiting to erupt, rolling non-stop.
"I … I … I …" Choi Ho-woon was suppressed by Xu Zhixuan's aura. He kept repeating "I'm here". At this moment, he already knew what he was about to face. Although he was already prepared, at this moment, he was still afraid.
"What about me? Choi Ho-woon, you better f * cking tell me honestly. Don't challenge my limits!!" Xu Zhixuan opened his eyes and suddenly grabbed Choi Ho-woon's collar and pulled him in front of him. His eyes were red and he was furious.
Choi Ho-woon, who was stunned by Xu Zhixuan, was now panicking. His eyes kept darting around as he thought about how to answer. However, time waited for no one. Xu Zhixuan was obviously unable to suppress his anger. He slapped Choi Ho-woon's left cheek until it was swollen.
Slap!! Choi Ho-woon's head hit the back of the chair with the force of the slap. The pain on his forehead and left cheek woke him up instantly. One had to know that after following Xu Zhixuan for a few years, he had gained Xu Zhixuan's trust. There were many ordinary secrets that he did not hide from him. Choi Ho-woon was very clear about how powerful Xu Zhixuan was. He knew that if he did not answer, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
"I … I had no choice. The president ordered me to hide it from you. He … he said that he would … would solve it!" As he spoke, he accidentally twitched his left cheek, causing Cui Haoyun to suck in a breath of cold air. It seemed that the slap just now wasn't light. His entire left cheek was numb, and there was nothing but pain.
"He told you to hide it, so you hid it. Who the f * ck do you work for? Ah!! Who the f * ck pays you? Ah!! How the f * ck do you treat me like this? Ah!! " At this moment, Xu Zhixuan was like an angry lion. It was as if his dignity as a king was being challenged. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with coldness. He stared straight into Choi Ho-woon's eyes. Every "ah" made Choi Ho-woon's body tremble unconsciously.
At this moment, Choi Ho-woon deeply felt the danger of death. He believed that if he did not answer properly, the consequences would be very serious. No leader would like their subordinates to listen to someone else's orders. They would even cooperate with someone else to hide it from their master, even if that person was Yang Xianshuo.
"He … he said that the Koreans would solve it, so I …" Choi Ho-woon lowered his head. No matter how he answered or explained, he did listen to the Koreans' orders. He temporarily hid it from Xu Zhixuan. This was an unforgivable mistake.
"Who gave the order?!" Xu Zhixuan also temporarily calmed down. He also knew that this matter was not entirely Choi Ho-woon's fault. Although he was Xu Zhixuan's manager, the person who gave the order to him in Korea must have a high status. He could not refuse, but Xu Zhixuan hated this feeling of betrayal.
"The higher-ups gave the order. President Yang gave the order!" Although Choi Ho-woon followed Xu Zhixuan to China to develop the market, it did not mean that he did not know what was going on in Korea. He had many connections in Korea. However, Choi Ho-woon also knew that this time, he did not dare to refuse the person who gave the order. Moreover, hiding this matter from Xu Zhixuan was indeed for Xu Zhixuan's own good. He knew that the whole country was currently focused on the presidential election. Xu Zhixuan would be impulsive and return at this crucial time. He did not know what would happen if that happened, but he knew that Xu Zhixuan would not be able to get away with it.
"Then what do you say about the recent matters?!" Xu Zhixuan frowned. If this matter was not clarified, their friendship would be broken. Obviously, it would cause Choi Ho-woon to no longer be his manager. Therefore, Xu Zhixuan had to clarify things.
Choi Ho-woon did not understand and asked, "What happened recently?"
"You don't know?"
"I don't know. Recently, I've been helping you promote your new movie!"
Xu Zhixuan stared straight into Choi Ho-woon's eyes, trying to see if he was lying. But this time, Choi Ho-woon's eyes were full of righteousness. He looked straight into Xu Zhixuan's eyes. Only then did Xu Zhixuan believe that Choi Ho-woon was not lying.
"Just now, BaoBao called and said that Bai Changzhu has been pestering Zhixiao. He even said in front of the reporters that I have already broken up with Zhixiao and that he is Zhixiao's boyfriend. Now, the front page of the Korean news is all about this!"
Xu Zhixuan looked at Choi Ho-woon angrily. If this guy did not hide the truth, he would not be in such a passive position. It was as if he had really become Chen Shimei. Needless to say, this news must have been published yesterday. Now, it was all over Korea. If he did not resist, then his name would definitely become Korea's Chen Shimei.
"Didn't they say that it would be resolved?" It would have been better if Choi Ho-woon did not mention it. But, as soon as he mentioned it, Xu Zhixuan became angry. Damn it, it would be resolved. It also depended on what the matter was. If Song Ji-hyo and the presidential election were placed together, even an idiot would know which one would be the winner.
"Tell me everything you know!"
Choi Ho-woon saw that there was still a chance to salvage the situation, so he quickly replied, "Actually, I know about Bai Changzhu pestering Zhixiao. It was a few days after I told you that someone was pursuing Zhixiao. But, the people in Korea said that they had been protecting Zhixiao, so I was not worried. They said that they would resolve this matter and asked me not to tell you for the time being. So …"
Needless to say, the matter became more and more troublesome. It was no longer just about Song Ji-hyo, but about Song Ji-hyo. They started to fight. To put it bluntly, Song Ji-hyo was implicated for no reason. Luckily, Park Jinhui's people knew that Song Ji-hyo was Xu Zhixuan's girlfriend. Otherwise, things would not have been so simple.
"Book a ticket to Korea. We will return immediately!" Xu Zhixuan could no longer tolerate it. He knew that Song Ji-hyo needed him at this moment. Just like how Xu Zhixuan could not allow others to use his family as a fighting point, no one could!
Choi Ho-woon heaved a sigh of relief. At least, his death sentence had been postponed. He could only slowly make up for it in the future. But, at this moment, he understood that Xu Zhixuan was his master. As long as he could gain Xu Zhixuan's trust, then he would have no advantages in the future.
"There's no need for that. I've already checked Zhixiao's schedule. They will probably be in Hong Kong tomorrow to film an RM!"
"Then book a ticket to Hong Kong!"
