Chapter 3

"Haha." Some teachers couldn't help but laugh, looking at the flustered Chen Junyu and then at Chu Yi with a look of disbelief.

This guy's mouth was quite sharp, wasn't it? He was just saying that the chair couldn't be sat on, and now it had broken.

Dong Guohao was stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment.

He couldn't just complain about the service quality here...

He could only glare fiercely at Chu Yi and quickly pull Chen Junyu up.

Chen Junyu's face was dark, and he was seething inside. The chair didn't break earlier or later, but precisely at this moment, and on his own turf. Wasn't this a clear slap in the face?

Especially when he saw the smile on Tan Yu's lips, his resentment towards Chu Yi deepened even more.

He had made a fool of himself at their first meeting, and the worst part was that he had nowhere to vent his anger.

After such an incident, Chen Junyu had no face to stay there and could only sit with Dong Guohao.

The rest of the banquet went smoothly, but after it ended, perhaps to save face, Chen Junyu proposed to treat everyone to a night at the Dunhuang KTV.

"Is that the most expensive Dunhuang KTV? You can't even enter if you don't spend at least a thousand yuan per person," Zhou Ru said excitedly.

Although they were teachers, they also yearned for the glamorous urban life, and most KTVs now operated legally, so there was nothing wrong with it.

"Teacher Chen, don't be too extravagant."

Chen Junyu waved his hand generously and said, "It's just a little money. Since it's our first meeting, it's only right that I treat you."

Although the management of the Kaisheng Hotel wasn't in his hands, Chen Junyu still held a small share, so he usually spent money freely.

"It looks like we will be blessed in the future."

"Teacher Chen, please take care of us in the future." A few married male teachers flattered him.

Chen Junyu found this very gratifying and even shot a challenging look at Chu Yi.

"Anyone can become a teacher, it seems." Chu Yi sighed inwardly. Actually, Chen Junyu's teaching ability was quite good, and he had a high education level, but his character was flawed.

Once, a student had angered him, and the next day, that student was beaten by a group of thugs and broke a bone.

To say there was no foul play, no one would believe it.

A group of people surrounded Chen Junyu and walked out. Similarly, as a new teacher, Chu Yi was left alone, with only Tan Yu deliberately stepping back to chat with him casually.

"Teacher Chu, you should apologize to Teacher Chen. After all, Teacher Chen has some background. Your words just now must have offended him, making it even harder for you to get a permanent position," Tan Yu reminded him.

"Apologize? Why? Just because I said something trivial?"

To make him apologize?

What a joke.

If the people from the Immortal Realm knew about this, they would be terrified. As the mighty Lord Yama, even if he made a mistake, he didn't need to apologize.

He knew Tan Yu had a relatively kind heart, but she couldn't escape the norms, just like in his previous life. After Chen Junyu appeared, Tan Yu gradually distanced herself from Chu Yi.

As a woman, when weighing the options, she would naturally lean towards Chen Junyu.

"Teacher Chu, you are too stubborn. This will eventually lead to your downfall," Tan Yu frowned. "This world is not as beautiful as you imagine."

"Those who do not share the same path cannot work together." Chu Yi shook his head and didn't say more.

Seeing his reaction, Tan Yu could only sigh helplessly.

She had originally had a good impression of Chu Yi because, although he was not well-off, he was ambitious and had a good appearance and physique.

But compared to Chen Junyu, he fell short, and her parents would never agree.

They were destined to be from two different worlds, and they would only drift further apart.

...

The bizarre city, the young men and women screaming and tearing their clothes, the bustling crowds, and the traffic congestion made Chu Yi feel a bit dazed.

He was really back.

The Dunhuang KTV was only a five-minute walk from the Kaisheng Hotel. After the meal, the group walked a few steps and arrived.

Judging by the atmosphere, it seemed today would end very late.

"Classes start the day after tomorrow, and I haven't even prepared my lessons... What a hassle," Chu Yi couldn't help but feel a headache.

The entire Dunhuang KTV was located in the most prosperous area of Jiuyang City, with its golden and splendid facade and numerous luxury cars parked outside.

Chen Junyu had already reserved a luxury private room, and the group entered noisily, starting to sing wildly.

Chu Yi, however, sat quietly on the side, out of place, and no one offered him a microphone.

"Teacher Chen, I heard this KTV is under Fan Hong's control. I didn't expect you to have such influence, even Manager Zhang came to toast you just now," Zhou Ru said exaggeratedly.

"Are you talking about Boss Hong?" Chen Junyu's face showed a hint of fear. "He is indeed formidable, starting from scratch and establishing himself in Jiuyang City. He has KTVs in every district, and once a district leader didn't give him face, and was taken down."

In terms of status, the Kaisheng Hotel was far inferior to the Dunhuang KTV.

Chen Junyu had only seen Fan Hong from a distance at an auction.

"Coming from the countryside, you really lack experience. You're so timid here," Chen Junyu sneered as he looked at Chu Yi, who was drinking beer by himself.

After a while, Team Leader Dong Guohao, feeling the urge to smoke, ran to the corridor to have a cigarette.

At that moment, a beautiful woman in a black low-cut dress, slightly drunk, walked out of a private room. Her white, exposed thighs made Dong Guohao's throat dry.

He was naturally lecherous, but usually just enjoyed the view. However, today, after drinking and being in an entertainment venue, he couldn't resist and reached out to touch her.

"Get lost!" The woman's drunkenness was instantly sobered up. Seeing the fat, middle-aged man in front of her, she showed a look of disgust.

"Acting all high and mighty, you're just a prostitute. What's wrong with touching you?"

Seeing her expression, Dong Guohao couldn't help but feel angry.

A mere prostitute dared to look down on him?

"Filthy bitch, you're asking for it." Emboldened by the alcohol, Dong Guohao pushed the woman.

"Fat pig, you'll pay for this!" The woman wasn't one to be trifled with and immediately threatened him.

"I'll be waiting right here!" After a string of curses, Dong Guohao swaggered back to the private room.

...

On the other side, the beautiful woman, filled with anger, returned to a luxury private room.

This was the largest private room in the Dunhuang KTV, and those who could afford to come here had a hard requirement: they must be billionaires.

Two tall, black-clad men with sunglasses stood at the door and quickly opened it.

Inside, there were over twenty people, all muscular.

On the leather sofas, there were women in cheongsams and uniforms, all extremely alluring, trying to please one person.

That person was a man in his forties, with a rugged face, a scar on his right ear, a crew cut, and wearing a Zhongshan suit.

There was a saying in the underworld: there were two types of people you absolutely couldn't provoke.

Those wearing Zhongshan suits and those holding black umbrellas.

Clearly, this man was the boss here.

Next to the middle-aged man, Manager Zhang of the Dunhuang KTV stood respectfully, not daring to look around.

Inside the room, the atmosphere was sultry, with a hint of spring.

"Xiao Li, what's wrong?" Manager Zhang was surprised to see Xiao Li run in, looking aggrieved.

"Manager, I was bullied. A fat man not only touched me but also insulted me. You have to do something for me," Xiao Li said.

"What happened? Everyone here knows you are my woman. Who dared to touch you?" Fan Hong frowned.

Manager Zhang's face also darkened. There were rules here, and no one could touch the women Fan Hong played with.

"Xiao Li, who was it, and in which room?" Manager Zhang asked.

"VIP2, he doesn't look like a rich person."

"So it's that guy." Manager Zhang understood and respectfully said to Fan Hong, "Brother Hong, it's someone from the Kaisheng Hotel, the second son of Chen Huaqiang."

"Spit, I thought it was someone important. Chen Huaqiang would have to take a detour if he saw me, and his son dares to act arrogantly here?" Fan Hong chuckled, making the woman on him shudder.

Everyone knew that Brother Hong hated it the most when someone touched his women.

Years ago, a CEO of a large group touched one of his women and almost got killed. It was only because of the city leader's face that he was spared, otherwise, he would have lost his life.

Fan Hong's current status was built on his ruthlessness.

"Xiao Zhang, take a few people and bring that fat man and the people from the Kaisheng Hotel here. I want to see how they plan to explain themselves today."

"Yes, Brother Hong." Manager Zhang tensed up, knowing that blood would likely be shed today.
