Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 700 Changes in the Background

"Xiao Xi! You... you’re finally back!" Sun Jian, the head of Tianxing Entertainment Company, was waiting backstage for Su Xiaoxi. After much anticipation, Su Xiaoxi returned, and he immediately rushed up to her, his hands trembling as he grasped her, speaking anxiously.

"Uncle Sun, what’s the matter?" Su Xiaoxi had not expected that as soon as she returned backstage, she would be seized like this by boss Sun Jian, feeling very bewildered. Seeing Sun Jian’s nervous look, she became even more puzzled and thought to herself, ’What’s wrong with Uncle Sun? He has never been like this before. What... what on earth happened to make Uncle Sun so nervous?’

"Xiao Xi, I’m begging you for a favor, is that alright?" Sun Jian was already sweating profusely. He could no longer care about anything else; he just hoped Su Xiaoxi would agree to his request. If she did, he might have a glimmer of hope; otherwise, his whole family, his whole company could be ruined!

"Uncle Sun, tell me what it is first," Su Xiaoxi said. Seeing Sun Jian so frantic, she had been inclined to agree offhandedly, but on second thought, she decided it was better to ask first. Whatever was making Uncle Sun so anxious must be serious, otherwise, he wouldn’t be speaking to her like this. She didn’t want to rashly agree to something she couldn’t pull off.

"Xiao Xi, I’m begging you, could you please sign with Jones Corporation? Don’t worry, the company here definitely won’t pursue any issues. Just consider it a big favor for your Uncle Sun to repay all the years I’ve nurtured you. What do you think?"

At this point, Sun Jian couldn’t care less about the details. He hastily put forth his request. It wasn’t actually what he wanted. Over the years, he had invested countless efforts and resources to bring Su Xiaoxi to this position. Under her leadership, Tianxing Entertainment Company had achieved rapid growth. Everything they had now was thanks to Su Xiaoxi. If she left, the good days for Tianxing Entertainment Company would be over. If it wasn’t for desperate circumstances, he would never have thought of letting go of Su Xiaoxi.

"What! Uncle Sun! How... how can you say such a thing! You know what kind of company Jones Corporation is. Can you really bear to see me jump into a pit of fire? Although you are my benefactor and have nurtured me, I cannot agree to this request!"

Su Xiaoxi’s face turned pale with fright when she heard Sun Jian say this, her body shaking. Just the mention of Jones Corporation made her irresistibly afraid. The scene of her kidnapping a few days ago replayed in her mind; it had become the nightmare of her life. To sign with Jones Corporation was inconceivable; it was something she simply couldn’t do. Even death wouldn’t make her agree to enter Jones Corporation, a pit she would never be able to climb out of!

Thinking about this, Su Xiaoxi’s cold sweat had already started to flow. She had never dreamed that Uncle Sun, who always loved and protected her, would say such a thing. This was... pushing her into an abyss of no return!

"Xiao Xi, I didn’t want this either!" Sun Jian said, seeing Su Xiaoxi’s reaction. He also felt a great deal of heartache. He had always treated Su Xiaoxi as his daughter and had protected her from the dirty dealings of the entertainment circle. If they hadn’t been driven to desperation, he really didn’t want to do this. But now... if Su Xiaoxi didn’t agree, his family, his company...

With that thought, Sun Jian couldn’t bother with any further pretense. He knelt before Su Xiaoxi, tears streaming down his face. Yang Guo had warned him that if he couldn’t get Su Xiaoxi to agree to sign with Jones Corporation by midnight that day, he would have to face the consequences himself, which were clearly something he absolutely couldn’t bear.

"Uncle Sun, what in the world happened? If you keep pushing me like this, you’re pushing me toward death!" Su Xiaoxi saw Sun Jian kneeling before her, with hot tears on his face, and her own tears started to fall. Uncle Sun must have encountered some insurmountable trouble to be pushing her this way. But no matter what, she could not agree to sign with Jones Corporation; even death wouldn’t make her sign!

But seeing Sun Jian like this, Su Xiaoxi felt she had to find out exactly what had happened. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to rest in peace even in death...

"Xiao Xi, do you know that your aunt and the two children have all disappeared, and your grandparents have disappeared too? And Yang Guo has threatened that if you don’t sign with Jones Corporation, he will immediately forcibly take over Tianxing Entertainment Company. Under such circumstances, what can I do? I have no choice but to beg you!"

Sun Jian, with tears coursing down his face, looked at Su Xiaoxi and laid out the situation. He had no other option now. Only if Su Xiaoxi agreed could this problem be resolved, or he would be left with nothing!

In the afternoon, all of a sudden, I received a phone call. I heard the voices of my wife and two children, followed by the voices of my parents. The caller demanded that I give up Su Xiaoxi and make her sign with Jones Corporation. Otherwise, none of these five people would be left alive!

Immediately afterward, I got a call from Yang Guo. His words were even more threatening, declaring that if I didn’t get Su Xiaoxi to agree to sign by midnight, he would maliciously force a buyout of Tianxing Entertainment Company and ensure that I wouldn’t get a penny. He also warned me not to call the police, or else all of my family members would disappear!

It was only then that Sun Jian realized Yang Guo and Jones Corporation hadn’t given up after their last attempt and continued to find every way to snatch Su Xiaoxi away. But Sun Jian never imagined that Yang Guo would stoop so low as to involve his family, forcing him to plead with Su Xiaoxi. In Sun Jian’s eyes, losing the company didn’t matter as much, but under no circumstances could he let his family suffer. Otherwise, he would never have been forced to beg Su Xiaoxi.

Of course I knew what Jones Corporation was like. None of the actresses who went in there had a good end. I didn’t want Su Xiaoxi to join such a company, but under the current circumstances, if Su Xiaoxi didn’t agree, I would lose everything, including my family which mattered most to me. That was something I couldn’t accept at any cost!

Therefore, Sun Jian rushed to the backstage area of the concert venue to wait for Su Xiaoxi, with the sole purpose of begging her to agree to sign with Jones Corporation, because I really couldn’t bear it anymore...

"Wha... What! My aunt and the kids, as well as my grandparents, have all been kidnapped, Uncle Sun, you have to call the police!" Hearing what Sun Jian said, Su Xiaoxi was shocked. She could never have imagined the situation would escalate to this point. She knew Yang Guo was despicable and shameless but didn’t anticipate he would do such a monstrous thing for her. What on earth should she do?

But Su Xiaoxi, thinking over and over, couldn’t come up with any good solutions except for calling the police. She quickly urged Sun Jian to call the police and have them resolve the situation. She really didn’t want to sign with Jones Corporation and face a life worse than death. With that thought, Su Xiaoxi was already in tears. She never expected such a thing to happen and understood why Uncle Sun was pressuring her so much, but she just couldn’t do it...

"If it were possible to call the police, I would have done so long ago. You know, Xiao Xi, Yang Guo brought in Ding Kun from Tianhai, a big name in the underworld. He’s sent the word out and now no one in Tianhai dares to get involved. If they do, he will show no mercy to anyone. Right now, even if we call the police, it will be useless. The police are afraid to handle it, too. You have no idea how powerful Ding Kun is; we can’t afford to provoke him, especially now with all my family in their hands, it’s even less possible to call the police. Otherwise..."

"Xiao Xi, for all the years of care and protection I’ve given you, and all the love you’ve received from me, please help me out. Without Uncle Sun, you wouldn’t have everything you have today. Now, only you can help me; otherwise, I’ll certainly face the ruin of both my family and home. I beg you, I’m kowtowing to you! Bang, bang, bang..."

Upon hearing Su Xiaoxi’s response, Sun Jian immediately explained the specific situation. Yang Guo had secured Ding Kun, a notorious Boss from Tianhai. With Ding Kun’s word out, no one in Tianhai would dare to touch this matter. With things pushed to a dead end, there was no possibility of turning back. In a nutshell, if Su Xiaoxi did not agree to sign, everyone’s family members, including myself, only had death awaiting us!

With that thought, Sun Jian, tears streaming down his face, kept kowtowing to Su Xiaoxi. He had only one thought: to make Su Xiaoxi agree to sign with Jones Corporation, to save his family, to save the company...

"Uncle Sun, are you pushing me towards death!" Su Xiaoxi realized the gravity of the situation upon hearing what Sun Jian said, and knew that if she didn’t agree, Uncle Sun’s entire family would lose their lives because of her. She couldn’t bear that at all. But to sign with Jones Corporation was even more unbearable. She would rather die than sign with Jones Corporation!

Now Su Xiaoxi was in deep conflict, not knowing how to untie the deadlock. Tears had completely flooded her face...

Looking back on the past, when she was just a little girl, Uncle Sun appeared. It was Uncle Sun who gave an orphan like her the warmth of a family. Under his caring, love, and patient guidance, she had gradually reached her current position. In her heart, Uncle Sun’s family had become her own family. The kindness Uncle Sun’s family had shown her was something she did not know how to repay.
