Chapter 718: 589 Fall off the horse when disagreeing, immensely regretful [1 update]_2

Ying Zijin: "?"

She turned her head and saw the young man carefully walking their way.

She glanced at his dazzling golden hair and fell silent for a moment, "He’s one of us, relax."

The female secretary was stunned but immediately reacted and moved a chair next to the girl.

Shang Yaozhi and the others also looked over.

"Xize Lorentz," said the young man as he sat down, took off his mask, and lazily greeted, "Nice to meet you all."

He had a face that was too handsome for words.

Blonde hair, blue eyes, and a high nose bridge—the standard Westerner features.

The agent’s occupational habit nearly kicked in, almost asking Xize if he wanted to join the entertainment industry.

Fortunately, he restrained himself in time.

Lorentz, oh Lorentz!

This surname belongs to the Emperor of the O continent.

If he dared to ask that question, he would have lost his life in the next second.

So their boss really did know someone from the Lorentz Family!

The female secretary couldn’t help herself, "Mr. Xize, what is your position within the Lorentz Family?"

"My position in the Lorentz Family?" Xize stroked his chin, "Well, hardly anyone has seen me; I just recently came out. Life’s really tough."

What he said was true.

But to everyone else, it sounded like Xize’s position within the Lorentz Family wasn’t high, that he wasn’t in touch with the core members of the family.

Everyone sighed in relief.

Sitting at the same table with a member of the Lorentz Family really had them nervous.

Xize ordered a glass of red wine and pulled out a pure gold card, lowering his voice, "Boss, this is the gold card of Lorentz Bank. Apart from me, only you have one, it’s universally accepted, withdraw money as you please, no limit."

Ying Zijin took it, "Next time, you really can choose a different color."

"No way, gold is my bottom line," Xize insisted firmly, "Other colors are too ugly, I don’t like them."

Ying Zijin held her forehead.

"Boss, I’m going to leave now," Xize crouched down again, "Let’s stick to video calls before I officially come out, as there are quite a few people eyeing me, and I’m not as tough as that guy Norton, need to work on that, scared I might croak again."

Ying Zijin: "..."

She truly couldn’t understand why Xize spoke such fluent Chinese.

He even used the local slang perfectly.

After thinking for a moment, Ying Zijin threw him a sachet.

Xize caught it, sniffed it, and found no scent.

He was curious, "What’s this?"

"Poison," Ying Zijin said indifferently, "can kill ten people at your elders’ rank."

Xize’s expression stiffened, "Boss, you as a young lady, are pretty fierce, huh?"

Ying Zijin saw through his thoughts, expressionless, "I’m hundreds of years old, don’t even think about relying on me."

Xize: "..."

Where was he hundreds of years old? The two hundred years he slept in the Ice Coffin, all of his bodily functions were frozen.

He didn’t admit it; he was only a little over a hundred years old, much younger than Dog Norton!

He was sure he’d be able to find a girlfriend.

Xize felt a tinge of sorrow, "Boss, why didn’t you pick up my call last night? I wanted to ask you about the IFF matter."

"I was watching TV with my boyfriend."

"..."

At that, Xize really turned and walked away.

He just couldn’t stand this double-standard boss anymore.

In the private room, the agent who was mid-meal suddenly turned pale.

"Yaozhi! Do you remember, in the history of the Lorentz Family, there was also a head named Xize?"

Shang Yaozhi pondered for a bit, "Now that you mention it, it seems there was."

Because it wasn’t his own field of study, he hadn’t specifically looked into that part of O continent’s history.

The agent struggled to swallow his saliva, "I don’t know why, but I feel like he is the same person as the Xize in history."

Shang Yaozhi was stunned, "What are you talking about?"

Still, the agent took out his phone and looked up the names of the rulers of the Lorentz Family across generations.

Indeed, in the 16th century, there was a head of the family named Xize.

The agent clicked on an accompanying portrait.

Back then, there were no cameras, only oil paintings.

The oil painting was evidently highly distorted.

Uneven eyes, a wide chin, and thick lips.

Looking at the strange oil painting, the agent fell into silence.

Because he couldn’t connect the painting with the exceedingly handsome blond young man he had just seen.

Indeed.

He must be delusional.

How could anyone live that long?

It’s too common in O Continent for descendants to share names with their ancestors.

Some even specifically name their sons after themselves.

The agent also felt he was overthinking it, considering his mental resilience had increased in the past few days.

He turned off his phone and looked up, "Yaozhi, let’s go to the airport."

Although the trophy has not yet reached Shang Yaozhi’s hands, it really wasn’t important anymore.

Just last night, film companies from various countries contacted Chuguang Media to purchase the broadcast rights for "Rebirth."

"Rebirth" hadn’t even officially premiered in Hua Country yet, there were only a few screenings.

The official premiere was scheduled for the end of March, with a global release.

It was foreseeable that this would bring great benefits to Shang Yaozhi, Chuguang Media, and the film industry of Hua Country.

**

The Pazzi Family.

The more Diana read the news, the uglier her expression became.

It was said that this incident did not affect her much.

She held absolute power and didn’t plan to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, but her reputation had been truly tarnished.

David was still unreachable to this moment.

Moreover, this had caused another conflict with the Lorentz Family.

This was not what the Pazzi Family wanted to see.

Although up to now, the Lorentz Family hadn’t caused them any trouble.

Diana took a deep breath and asked the butler beside her, "What did father say?"

"Your father has already sent people to the airport to invite them to our family’s residence," the butler replied respectfully. "Miss Diana, rest assured, the Lorentz Family is making such a fuss because the IFF Golden Image Award was unfair."

"Even if it were not Chuguang Media from Hua Country but a small company from Q Country, they would do the same, and they won’t meddle in the aftermath."

The Lorentz Family was acting this way just for the family’s reputation, it had nothing to do with who it was.

The Lorentz Family didn’t have that much time to manage others’ affairs.

Chuguang Media had also caused a great loss of face for the Pazzi Family, especially CEO Ying.

They couldn’t possibly let it go easily.

Diana suppressed her impatience and exhaled slowly, "Then I’ll wait."

**

On the other side, at the airport.

The alarm sounded suddenly.

[Attention all passengers, attention all passengers, we have received temporary control notification due to an emergency incident.

All flights are suspended from taking off, all flights are suspended from taking off, please wait patiently, and the airport will notify everyone as soon as possible and arrange for the flights to take off.]

The city where the airport was located was close to Jade Ice Cui, a territory of the Pazzi Family.

If the Pazzi Family took control of the airport, then not a single plane could take off, including private jets.

After all, private jets also needed to use the airport’s runway and depart from the airport.

The entire airport fell into chaos in a moment.

Although this airport was not as big as Jade Ice Cui, it was still an important transportation hub.

Passengers from various countries panicked.

After all, terrorist attacks were not uncommon in O Continent.

Especially since the explosion case in University Town had not been traced back to its source.

Into Chuguang Media’s private jet burst a group of people.

Luke was leading, followed by the Guard Squad of the Pazzi Family.

The female secretary’s expression turned stern.

Luke glanced around and sneered, "Just you? Where’s your boss? Did she leave you behind and run away?"

"She’s still at the hotel, isn’t she?" Luke looked down, "Come on, report to her immediately, tell her to come here right away, otherwise, you indeed won’t be able to leave O Continent."

"Of course, we can transport your bodies back to your country for free, without charging any fees."
