La forgeronne d'un autre monde

Chapitre 437

"Young man, it was my fault. I will never try to scam you again!"

"Brother, please have mercy on us and spare us!"

The three of them clung to Ma Yunteng's legs, pleading and looking extremely miserable.

"Spare you, it's not impossible!"

A wicked smile crept across Ma Yunteng's eyes as he looked at the three men and continued, "However, you may escape the death penalty, but you cannot escape punishment!"

Listen up! Each of you give me 50,000 yuan! Otherwise, you'll be spending the rest of your lives in prison!

Although Ma Yunteng didn't care about the money, since the other party had chosen to commit fraud, they should pay a price!

Upon hearing the voice, the three men's faces immediately darkened. All three were seasoned con artists, and now their attempt to scam had failed, leaving them with demands for compensation!

"Brother, we don't have that much money!" The man almost cried.

"Young man, please have mercy on me," the old woman nearly vomited blood.

"Attorney Liu, I'm leaving this matter to you. Remember! If you don't raise the 150,000 yuan, sue them immediately!" Ma Yunteng instructed seriously.

"Haha! This is truly gratifying!"

"This young man is too kind. If I had that much money, I would have run them over and killed them!"

"That's right, I hate these people who stage accidents to extort money the most!"

Hearing the discussions of the crowd, Ma Yunteng felt a sense of satisfaction. He didn't linger there and immediately put his arm around Xia Yuxin and got into the car.

"Let's go back. Shi Ke and my cousin should be done shopping by now. Let's have Cloud Hot Pot again today!" Ma Yunteng hadn't eaten with a few girls in a long time, so he planned to take them out for Cloud Hot Pot again this time.

"Brother Teng, I can't go back tonight. A good friend of mine is having some trouble, and I want to go help her!" Xia Yuxin suddenly frowned and said.

"Oh, what's wrong?" Ma Yunteng asked.

“This friend of mine was my college classmate. Right after graduation, she went to work at a radio station as a program host. But because she refused the station's leaders' advances, she may be unemployed today,” Xia Yuxin said.

"Well, that's easy!" Ma Yunteng said casually.

Meanwhile, at a radio station in Jiangnan City.

"Yaoyao, have you thought this through? If you don't give in to me today, don't blame me for being ruthless!" A man with a beer belly said, while groping the beautiful woman named Yaoyao with his hand.

This beautiful woman is Chu Mengyao, Xia Yuxin's college classmate and one of her best friends.

"Get out of my way!" A cold look suddenly appeared on Chu Mengyao's face as she dodged his hand.

"Hmph! Chu Mengyao! I advise you to think this through! If it weren't for me protecting you, do you think you could have survived at the radio station with your voice? Do you know how badly the ratings for the two shows you host have dropped? Let me tell you the truth, the station's leaders have wanted to replace you for a long time. If I hadn't spoken up for you, you would have packed your things and left long ago!" The beer-bellied man was a planner at the radio station named Wang Jian. He planned more than a dozen programs, and he basically had the final say on who would host them.

"If you continue like this, I'll call the police!" Chu Mengyao said seriously, her eyes narrowing. She knew that many female hosts at the station had that kind of relationship with him, after all, he held considerable power. But Chu Mengyao was not the kind of girl who would sell her body for her career.

"Call the police? Are you willing to call the police?" Wang Jian chuckled.

"I've already found out. You worked as a broadcaster and host at the university for three years. You also worked hard to learn broadcasting skills in your spare time. Our radio station is the best in Jiangnan City, and it's the best platform for you to realize your broadcasting dream! If you dare to call the police, I guarantee you'll never be able to stay at the station again!"

The sound faded.

Chu Mengyao frowned immediately. Yes, becoming a popular announcer had always been her dream, and she had put in a lot of effort for it. The radio station she was currently working at was the No. 1 Radio Station in Jiangnan City, which was the best platform for her to realize her dream. If she really left, other radio stations might choose to reject her because of this stain on her career!

"My show starts in ten minutes, please leave. I need to prepare my content." A tear rolled down Chu Mengyao's cheek as she said disappointedly.

"Ten minutes? Hehe... You can do a lot of things in ten minutes! Come on! Don't be shy!" Wang Jian's lips curled into a lewd smile as his gaze swept over Chu Mengyao's voluptuous body.

Upon hearing Wang Jian's foul language, tears instantly streamed down Chu Mengyao's face. At that moment, she had made her final decision!

After hosting this program, she will say goodbye to the audience and then leave the radio station that she has always longed for forever.

"If you say anything like that again, I guarantee I'll completely ruin your public image!" Chu Mengyao pulled out her phone, revealing a WeChat chat window where she was having a voice call with someone. Xia Yuxin had just sent her a voice message asking how she was doing, and the two were still chatting when Wang Jian barged in.

"Heh, let me tell you, even if you record it, it won't work! The station director is my uncle! This radio station is basically owned by my uncle! Understand? Whoever I put in power can be put in power. I can make you sleep with me, and you can't say no!!" Wang Jian grinned and shouted smugly, "Fine, you'd better prepare your program and finish your last shift. After today, come to my office! Otherwise, think about the consequences!"

After saying that, Wang Jian slammed the door and left.

Chu Mengyao burst into tears, her face streaked with tears. After calming herself down, she put on her headphones with a relieved expression, her lips slightly parted:

"This is The Sound of Music. Accompanied by beautiful music, we would like to invite our first listener to connect with us tonight," Chu Mengyao said in a clear, ethereal voice, while pressing the answer button.

"Hello, this is The Sound of Music. What would you like to say to everyone?"

"Um... I just wanted to say that your voice is so beautiful. Can I have a yearly subscription so you can keep talking to me?" The person making the call was Ma Yunteng.

"Thank you for your support, but... our radio station doesn't offer annual subscriptions..." Chu Mengyao said with a wry smile.

"I'm not kidding! Name your price!"

"...Sir, theoretically, this is indeed a possibility. If you could buy our radio station...but our radio station is worth at least a billion!" Chu Mengyao said sweetly.

"Um... is it really that cheap..." Ma Yunteng clicked his tongue. "Give me five minutes, okay?"

------------

I need to take a day off. I'll be working until 5 AM tomorrow.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, there will be many late-night updates this month.
