Jiang Nuan lowered her gaze and looked at him. "Yes, he is my son. His biggest dream in life is to become a singer."
Feng Cheng lowered his head and remained silent. Pursuing a career in the entertainment industry is truly arduous!
Mu Jiuchen finally understood what was happening.
These two people were trying to drug his son!
A sudden chill emanated from Mu Jiuchen's entire being.
"Wife, you're saying they drugged our son?" he asked, needing clarification.
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly. "Yes! When I went out to the rooftop to rest, I overheard them talking up there. Fortunately, I followed them all the way in and switched the cups. Otherwise, our precious darling wouldn't have had a chance to participate in this competition."
Feng Cheng and Li Yu: ... How could such a coincidence happen?
Li Yu sneered as he looked at the couple. They possessed outstanding demeanor and extraordinary appearances. However, he had already inquired, and the background of the "Cat Face Little Prince" was completely devoid of any influence.
With no backing, he could manipulate them as he pleased.
He threatened Jiang Nuan, "So what if you saw? You have no proof, so don't just blabber nonsense."
"If you dare to speak recklessly, your son's life will be ruined. At that point, even if you beg on your knees, or climb into my bed, I won't spare your son."
These words instantly ignited Mu Jiuchen's fury.
He didn't say a word as he moved like a gust of wind, grabbed Li Yu by the collar, and delivered a fierce punch.
"You dare to touch my son? How many lives do you have? You dare to threaten my wife? You dare to insult my wife, you damn fool, don't you want to live?" Mu Jiuchen was enraged, wanting to kill.
"Bang..."
Another punch landed squarely on Li Yu's face.
"Ah..." Li Yu screamed, and the strong smell of blood filled the air.
Li Yu, accustomed to a life of luxury and having amassed a considerable fortune as an agent over the years, had only indulged in food, drink, and entertainment, leaving him frail and weak.
Mu Jiuchen's fierce punch nearly took half his life.
Blood streamed from his nose, making him look exceptionally disheveled.
"Bang..." Mu Jiuchen delivered another powerful punch to Li Yu's face.
Li Yu's slightly plump body swayed precariously. Mu Jiuchen released him, and he immediately collapsed onto the ground, kneeling.
Meanwhile, Feng Cheng stood by, stunned, watching Li Yu being beaten.
"Don't... don't hit him anymore. If you keep hitting me, I'll die. You don't want to be responsible for a death because of me, do you?"
The pain was unbearable. He couldn't take it any longer. If the beating continued, he would truly die.
Li Yu raised his hands to shield his face, looking at the imposing Mu Jiuchen with terror.
Mu Jiuchen’s long leg swung out with a powerful kick.
"Bang..." The man's body bent at a ninety-degree angle and flew backward.
Only when he landed on the ground did Mu Jiuchen return to Jiang Nuan's side.
"Pfft..." The man's face was bloody, and he curled up in agony, groaning.
Feng Cheng: ...
It was hard to believe that the usually arrogant Li Yu would ever find himself in such a miserable state.
Jiang Nuan looked at Feng Cheng and asked, "How old are you this year?"
Looking at his appearance, he was either underage or just recently came of age.
"Sister, I'm 17 this year, and I'll be 18 in a few months. I was also forced into this. There are many unfeeling rules in the company. To gather medical expenses for my father, I had to do as my agent said. Please, don't sue me. Can you sue me after I've gathered enough for my father's surgery?" Feng Cheng pleaded tearfully.
Jiang Nuan looked at him, seeing a trace of conscience within him, and said, "Husband, find out about his father's situation and help him with his medical expenses, so this child can go back to school."
Mu Jiuchen frowned as he looked at her. He didn't possess such kindness, but he had to listen to his wife.
"Alright!"
Feng Cheng looked at Jiang Nuan in surprise, his eyes wide. "Sister... are you... not angry anymore?"
Jiang Nuan's expression was unreadable, but she knew that a seventeen-year-old child, besides wanting to save his relatives, had a difficult time surviving in this corrupt environment.
"Yes. I heard the conversation on the rooftop very clearly. You were indeed forced. I'm willing to give you a chance. However, this matter cannot be revealed to my son. He doesn't know we're here. When you go on stage later, your expression should be natural."
"Thank you!" Feng Cheng gratefully kowtowed three times to Jiang Nuan.
Mu Jiuchen's gaze was somber.
He looked behind him and called out, "Li Shuang, come here."
Li Shuang, who was not far away, heard the voice and quickly walked over.
"Sir!"
She looked at Li Yu, who was not far away, and frowned slightly.
"Mr. Li, you're here. These two people committed assault inside. Hurry up and have them thrown out."
He dared not call the police, as the evidence was in Jiang Nuan's hands.
Li Shuang's eyebrows furrowed. She had vaguely overheard some things earlier.
The "Cat Face Little Prince" was Sir's son.
She had never expected this.
It was too shocking; he was a little genius.
She had always wanted to sign the "Cat Face Little Prince" to their company but had never been successful.
"Mr. Li, why are you standing there? Don't forget that our company has a collaboration with your company. The CEO of AT Entertainment is my brother-in-law. If you offend me, even if your company is large, your resources will dwindle." Li Yu threatened Li Shuang.
Li Shuang: ... Rest assured, it won't be our resources dwindling, but rather your company going bankrupt overnight.
Mu Jiuchen raised an eyebrow and thought, AT Entertainment? That's the one opposite this building, the one that hasn't been on good terms with Hua Rong Entertainment?
Mu Jiuchen looked at Li Shuang and said, "You may go. I will handle this matter myself."
Li Yu was stunned. Who was he?
Li Shuang's expression was very respectful.
"Understood, Sir!" Li Shuang turned and left.
Li Yu: ... He wiped his bloody nose and stumbled to his feet.
Mu Jiuchen called Xiao Fan, asking him to come and handle the situation.
Mu Jiuchen arranged for bodyguards to guard the premises and then took Jiang Nuan back to the competition venue.
Feng Cheng also followed along.
When Li Yu tried to leave, he was stopped by the bodyguards!
As the couple entered, Jiang Yukuo had already finished singing.
The four groups of singers were already on stage, awaiting their turn.
The host exclaimed with great emotion, "Next, let us count down from five to see who will be our champion today."
"Cat Face Little Prince."
"Feng Cheng..."
"Thin Waist Combo..."
The audience shouted the names of their favorite singers.
The host raised a finger. "Come, everyone, let's count down five numbers together. Five, four, three, two, one."
"Announce the results!"
On the large screen behind the stage, the number of votes kept increasing.
Jiang Siyun watched her brother's name with excitement.
Seeing his votes steadily climb, she was both nervous and thrilled.
Two minutes later.
The host announced the result: "Congratulations to our Cat Face Little Prince for winning first place!"
"Yay!" Jiang Siyun jumped up happily, wildly waving her glow stick.
My brother is truly amazing!
Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiuchen were also very happy.
Kuo Bao had worked hard for many years, all for this moment.
"Second place, Feng Cheng!"
"Third place, Li Yu!"
"Bravo..."
Enthusiastic applause erupted from the crowd.
The atmosphere at this moment was electric.
Confetti from behind the stage exploded with a bang, bang, bang.
Petals fluttered down from the sky.
A faint fragrance instantly permeated the air.
The stage lights shone in a myriad of colors, heightening the atmosphere to its peak.
The crowd cheered with joy!
But at this moment, a spectator in the audience suddenly asked loudly, "Host, I have a question, can I ask it?"
