Qian Shaohua broke out into a cold sweat as he stammered along, "Oh, n-no… Th-Those are just mindless words!"
A grin faintly appeared on Mu Yazhe's lips, though it was a very grim one. His gaze darkened and that chilling look beneath his eyes turned somber.
"You seem to be very interested in my woman?"
As soon as he asked that, he enclosed Yun Shishi in his powerful arms and pulled her even closer to him; this was akin to a silent declaration of ownership – this woman was his.
Qian Shaohua, who was previously scornful at him, immediately went obsequious. Lowering his profusely sweating head, he kneeled like a son of a b*tch. He was truly flustered!
"Erm… that is…" He was in a dilemma. It was improper to admit his interest, but he could not deny it, too!
This man had most likely overheard his licentious words earlier. Why would he stare at him so fiercely otherwise?
Those words were simply said as posturing since Mu Yazhe was not around. He did really not expect to run into him by chance and for the latter to witness his actions and hear his words.
He dared not to look up. If his menacing voice alone could almost scare him witless, what more of his vicious look?
In fact, he had few interactions with Mu Yazhe before, and most of those times were only to discuss their partnership over drinks.
In his eyes, the man was an arrogant but respectable crown prince. He was young and – maybe because of his safe and luxurious upbringing – haughty. He was used to being condescending, so with each movement he made, he treated anyone anyway he pleased.
However, speaking of his background, it was extremely mysterious. Everyone in the industry barely knew anything about him!
Even he, who was an acquaintance of the man for years, had little information about him!
He knew that, on the surface, this Young Master Mu was a well-known entertainment tycoon in the capital. He had two big entertainment companies under his control. He was, no doubt, a formidable and important character; one could simply not afford to offend the powers backing him. A sneeze from him would be sufficient to cause tremors within the entire financial district!
This was not a baseless rumor; even the mayor had to show him respect. One could infer from that that he was no ordinary man!
Thus, everyone held this young chairman in high regard and treated him like a superior. Rather than saying that Qian Shaohua feared the man, it was more accurate to say that he dreaded the latter's mysterious and powerful ties.
This man was also a vicious superior.
There was a well-circulated aphorism in the industry, and it went: 'If one can't be a friend of Mr. Mu, then at least don't be his foe!'
Otherwise, they would suffer terrible consequences.
"Mr. Mu, you see… it's only a woman. It's alright if you are unwilling to give her to me. Let's just leave it at that! Why should this cause a dent in our relationship?"
Hearing that, Mu Yazhe stared at him with severity in his eyes and then languidly blinked his lids. His distinct facial features were etched coldly, and his voice dropped below freezing level as he expressed, "Those words your mouth just spouted, I really don't like hearing them!"
He spoke slowly and frostily, his words clearly holding a deeper meaning! Whoever heard them would sense his dissatisfaction!
His heart skipped a beat. Laughing dryly, he dipped his head to apologize.
