CHAPTER 677: CHAPTER 679: DISTURBANCE AT THE VENUE

In the venue, all the actors were taking their bows on stage when suddenly a man rushed onto the stage, grabbing one of the female actors by the hand and refusing to let go, "Yanzhi, come with me, I’m buying you out tonight."

Yanzhi was the stage name of that female actor. She was terrified by this sudden incident; trying to break free, she trembled and said, "Young Master Zhu, I’m not for sale anymore."

"Not for sale? What’s this joke, who are you trying to fool? Clearly, you’re just out to sell yourselves." The man still wouldn’t let go, "I’m not without payment; I’ve got plenty of silver."

"Young Master Zhu, please, let me go." Yanzhi was so frightened she was close to tears, her eyes swirling with them. She didn’t want to live that kind of life anymore.

Members of Xuntian Escort Agency, who were in charge of security at today’s venue, quickly made their way to the stage. Yang Ming also swiftly got on stage and grabbed the man’s wrist, "Sir, please conduct yourself with dignity."

"Let go of me, is this how you treat a guest?" The man, his wrist in pain, yelled at Yang Ming, "Ha, it’s not like I’m not paying. I’ve been with Yanzhi for quite some time, how come you’re acting all high and mighty now?"

Yang Ming’s brows furrowed, his expression ice-cold, "Sir, please show some respect. Joy Grand Theater is a place for performances, not that kind of worldly establishment anymore. If you’re looking for company of a lady for fun, please head to Chunfeng Pavilion across the street."

"Humph, coming to you was an elevation."

"We don’t need that kind of elevation, please leave immediately and refrain from disturbing the others here."

Yang Ming gestured to his brothers as he spoke. Men from Xuntian Escort Agency stepped up in front of the man, who cowered and began retreating, still mouthing off, "Hmph, what’s so great about you, just you wait and see."

Yang Ming told his brothers, "See him out."

The man was escorted out of the Grand Theater by the formidable Xuntian Escort Agency.

At this time, the other guests in the venue hadn’t left yet. Yang Ming continued addressing everyone from the stage, "I apologize for that little incident just now. While I have this opportunity, let me repeat, Joy Grand Theater is now a place that brings joy through performances; we will no longer permit our ladies to be sold. I hope everyone will give these girls a chance to start anew. I thank you all here."

As he spoke, Yang Ming clasped his hands and bowed deeply, then continued, "To express our apologies, Joy Grand Theater is going to perform two extra acts for everyone. I hope you have a wonderful evening here."

Once Yang Ming finished, the host immediately understood and said to the crowd, "Please take your seats and remain quiet, the performance will begin shortly."

The actors took this opportunity to head backstage.

As Yang Ming stepped down from the stage, he saw his wife standing there looking at him. He hurried over and brought her backstage.

"Why did you come out?"

"I wanted to see who the blind one was, adding trouble for me." Xiaoxiao, having heard the commotion backstage, was truly upset and had rushed out to see what was happening. Fortunately, Yang Ming had resolved the situation on stage.

Given the girls’ special status, it was inevitable that something like this would happen sooner or later. This incident ultimately served to show the other guests that indeed, the girls of Joy Grand Theater were not for sale anymore.

"Don’t worry, I’m here." Yang Ming reassured her.

"Okay." Following this incident, Xiaoxiao decided to station more people around the stage to prevent guests from rushing up and causing trouble.
