Chapter 476 - Scum’s Promotion
At this moment, Huo Kun finally recalled that Su Tao even dared to slap his cousin, Ye Ling. So it was understandable for Su Tao to slap him since this person didn't have any concept of social ranking in his mind.
From another angle, Su Tao could also be called a madman!
Facing a madman, you either be more vicious than him, or you avoid him.
Thus, Huo Kun started to fall back in panic and pushed the actress in his embrace over since he was worried that Su Tao might come after him again.
Seeing how terrified Huo Kun became, Su Tao felt both angered and teased. Someone like Huo Kun only knew how to bully the weak and feared the strong. He might seem powerful, but he's just someone that would cower upon encountering something beyond him.
Su Tao despised Huo Kun down to his bones. In any case, he could be considered Huo Kun's benefactor, but not only did Huo Kun not repay him, he even schemed against him time and time again.
On the other hand, Ni Jingqiu's feelings for Huo Kun were genuine, but she's only a tool in the latter's eyes.
For such a person like Huo Kun, his life was akin to a zombie; selfish and taking advantage of the weak.
Pushing the actress aside, Su Tao went after Huo Kun. When Huo Kun's friends saw that the situation had suddenly blown up, they shielded Huo Kun and barked, "Bloody hell. You're pretty bold to cause trouble here, do you believe that I won't cripple you?"
As he spoke, the leading middle-aged man ripped his shirt apart and revealed his muscles, which was covered in his chest hair that seemed like he had excess hormones raging in his body.
Waving his hand, Su Tao shooed, "I'm here for Huo Kun, so get lost!"
"Fuck, you're pretty arrogant, aren't you?!" The middle-aged man grinned. "It has been a long time since I trained with a sandbag. Beat him up!"
The name of the middle-aged man was Hong Dabao, and he's forty-five this year. With his robust physique, he now worked as a martial arts coordinator in a production team. When he was young, he worked as a double for many famous martial arts celebrities. Those around him were members of his stunt team, which all of them have practised martial arts since young. Thus, their skills were something that even local hoodlums feared.
The reason why Hong Dabao had a pretty good relationship with Huo Kun was because he knew that the latter had relations with many production teams, and he hoped to find more business through Huo Kun.
Thus, he naturally had to act when he saw Huo Kun being humiliated.
Everyone in the Hong Stunt Team was a hot-blooded youth. So upon receiving the order from their leader, they all pounced at Su Tao.
None of these guys, who have been working as stunt doubles for such a long time, were pushovers, especially the youth at the right. That youth lifted a metal chair and smashed down towards Su Tao's head.
However, Su Tao leaned himself to the side and dodged it. At this moment, another youth threw a kick over from his right, which he raised his hand and gave that youth a shove, causing that youth to lose his centre of gravity and Su Tao took that opportunity to kick his butt. The youth was lifted off the ground and flew before smashing into a round table that seemed like a scene straight out of an action film.
But it was a pity that the surrounding customers did not have the mood to enjoy the show. They had immediately stood up and distanced themselves, fearing that they might be in trouble.
Seeing this scene, Hong Dabao's countenance turned cold. He knew that his men weren't coordinating a fight with Su Tao, but Su Tao was genuinely skilled. How powerful must that person's leg be to send someone that's about 75kg flying?
The youth on the right had his eyes turning red from the adrenaline rushing to his brain and constantly brandished the metal chair. However, he felt that Su Tao's figure was blurred. Su Tao was clearly standing before him, but he couldn't even land a single hit!
It was a misconception that the youth felt that Su Tao moved too quickly.
These stunt doubles might be skilled, but they were nothing in the eyes of an expert.
When Su Tao found an opening, he gave a hook at the youth's chin. A mouthful of saliva gushed out from the youth's mouth and the chair dropped before he fell backwards onto the ground.
The entire event only took half a minute, and Su Tao had already dealt with the two best fighters of the Hong Stunt Team.
Witnessing this scene, Hong Dabao felt his heart turning into ice and inwardly cursed Huo Kun for making such a powerful person his enemy. A bead of sweat dripped from his nose as he had goosebumps all over his body.
"Brother, we were blind and failed to recognise Mount Tai! I hereby apologise to you!" Hong Dabao was perceptive and he immediately lowered his head.
He only had two new disciples beside him, and they were clearly not a match for Su Tao. Thus, he cast a glance at Huo Kun and inwardly prayed for the latter.
When he finished, he gave a signal to his two disciples and they went to support the two other men before leaving the street food stall without turning back.
At this moment, Huo Kun cursed Hong Dabao in his heart for leaving him behind. The latter was just fawning around him a moment ago, and he had left him to his own demise in a blink of an eye.
Then again, Huo Kun had also underestimated Su Tao's skills. He initially thought that Hong Dabao's four disciples could deal with Su Tao, but he never expected that Su Tao would kick their asses so easily.
When Su Tao came before Huo Kun, he raised his leg and lashed out a kick at the latter's abdomen without any hesitation.
Clutching onto his stomach, Huo Kun kneeled on the ground as he retched with his facial muscles spasming. His face was completely distorted, and he recovered a long while later. When he looked at Ni Jingqiu, he no longer had the arrogance from before and begged, "Jingqiu, we were once a couple. Are you really going to stand by and watch him humiliate me?"
Hearing his begging, Ni Jingqiu's heart went into turmoil. Truth be told, she really found Huo Kun pitiful and wanted to stop Su Tao.
However, she knew that Su Tao was teaching Huo Kun a lesson because of her.
Seeing her internal conflict, Su Tao's solemn voice resounded, "If you feel that I've done wrong, then I can stop now!"
"He deserves it!" Ni Jingqiu bit on her lips and toughened her heart.
Seeing that Ni Jingqiu had abandoned him, Huo Kun immediately started swearing, "You bitch, slut, cold-blooded garbage!"
After that, he spouted even more terrible things and actually insulted Ni Jingqiu on her taste and every possible thing that he could think of when they were a couple.
Hearing those unsightly words, Ni Jingqiu's face turned pale with the observers looking at her with different gazes; there were shock, ridicule, disdain, and even pity.
At the same time, Su Tao never expected that the Dao of scum that Huo Kun has achieved could still be promoted. There's no ultimate scum, but only more scum.
Not that they've broken up, he actually spouted all their private matters. Just how despicable could he be?
"I've spent so much on you, and you didn't even let me sleep with you! But in the blink of an eye, you're now behaving so intimately with another man. My eyes were truly blind!" Huo Kun was still spouting his insults.
Surprisingly, Su Tao did not stop Huo Kun since the latter needed to show how disgusting he was so that Ni Jingqiu could get a clear sight of him.
Women were forgetful and soft-hearted. So if powerful medicine wasn't used, it's uncertain if Ni Jingqiu would still have lingering feelings for Huo Kun, which might spark and a later timing get the two of them back together.
Biting on her lips, Ni Jingqiu firmly stood up and looked at Huo Kun. "Thank you for your words. I've never expected that there can be someone as disgusting as you. I do not wish to see you anymore in the future, and I will erase you from my memories. Perhaps I will feel much better this way."
When she finished, she headed for the exit.
"Want to slap him?" Su Tao tried to call out to her.
"No! I will only dirty my hands by slapping him!" Ni Jingqiu decisively left.
Letting out a sigh, Su Tao felt uninterested when he looked at Huo Kun. Pulling out his wallet, he paid for the meal and went after Ni Jingqiu.
After Ni Jingqiu and Su Tao disappeared, Huo Kun felt pain in his entire body and fell onto the ground. His eyes were burning with hatred; the humiliation he felt today was all because of Su Tao. At this moment, he only wanted to take revenge on Su Tao at all costs.
The female actress also recovered at this moment, so she came over and asked, "Chairman Huo, are you alright?"
As Huo Kun slowly tried to crawl back up, he pushed the actress away, which the latter awkwardly stood up and asked in a self-mocking tone, "Do you think that I'm bloody pathetic?"
"No. Chairman Huo, you're the manliest person in my heart! That ex-girlfriend of yours is garbage, and I feel disgusted by her." The actress spoke against her heart.
But before she could finish, Huo Kun slapped her.
Spitting on the ground, Huo Kun raged, "You're just a bloody public transport. What rights do you have to criticise her?!"
"Me?" The actress instantly felt exceedingly grieved. She had no grudge with Ni Jingqiu, and she only criticised Ni Jingqiu because she wanted to get on Huo Kun's good side. However, she never expected that she would suffer a slap because of it.
The nearby customers all started to point their fingers at her, which the actress wanted to find a hole and burrow herself in it.
Grabbing onto the actress' chin, Huo Kun moved to her ear and humiliated, "I've seen tons of women like you that sacrifice their body to achieve that motive. Not even a myriad of you can compare to Jingqiu's position in my heart. I insulted her because I wanted to wake her up and turn around. Do you think that you can replace her by helping me insult her? You're dreaming!"
"Chairman Huo, I don't have that intention. I'm satisfied to hope that you can pamper me." The actress violently shook her head.
Patting on her cheeks, Huo Kun sighed, "Whores are heartless, and actors aren't loyal. Although I know that you're just trying to get on my good side, I still feel much better. As long as you serve me well today, I'll sign you as my next focusing actress."
The actress inwardly sighed. That the slap was worth it, so she asked, "Chairman Huo, that was such a buzzkill. I don't feel comfortable eating here anymore, why don't we change our location?"
"Where?" Huo Kun smiled.
"Why don't we go to the Great Tai Hotel?" The actress charmingly smiled before she continued, "I guarantee that I will feed you well!"
"What a slut!" Huo Kun's entire body felt sore because of Su Tao, and he wanted to find a place to regain his dignity and confidence as a man.
