Soon, a table of dishes was piled up.
Lu Cheng started to move his chopsticks. His movements seemed unpleasant, but the food on the plate went down very quickly!
Shao Lin originally thought that at least half of the dishes would be left, but in the end he ate them all, not even a hair was left!
Shao Lin was amazed when he saw it: "Mr. Bodyguard, you are so awesome! After all, you are a martial arts practitioner and your appetite is amazing."
In fact, Lu Cheng was born in the year of the camel. He could go without eating for 10 days. Because he was too angry to eat, he would skip a few meals and still run a marathon. He could also eat a lot at one time, even though he had not yet entered the Zang Refining Realm. But his appetite is good.
After dinner, Shao Lin drove the two of them back to the hotel.
He took a look at the room number and went to the front desk downstairs to ask: "How many people live in room 505?"
The waiter looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I can't tell you."
Shao Lin took out two hundred-dollar bills, pressed them under his palm and pushed them forward: "Please tell me. The person who lives in room 505 is my sister, and I care about her safety. Which room does the other man wearing sunglasses live in?"
The waiter whispered: "They live in the same room."
Shao Lin frowned, took out a few more big bills, and quietly handed them over: "Is there a camera in the room?"
The waiter changed his face in shock: "Sir, what are you talking about? We are a five-star hotel, how can we have such a thing?"
Shao Lin pushed the money over and whispered: "Don't scream. If you have it, you have it, if you don't have it, you don't have it. If you have it, I'm willing to pay a lot of money to buy the video, no matter ten thousand or twenty thousand."
"No, absolutely not!"
"Hmph, no matter how good the hotel is, there will still be videos leaked."
"You have to look outside for this. This will never happen in our hotel!"
If Shao Lin wants to get that special video, he can take action at a critical moment and use subtle blackmail methods to force Jiang Qiuyun to sign a long-term agreement and at the same time lower the royalties for the contract.
Yesterday, he originally wanted to pick up Jiang Qiuyun at the high-speed rail station and take her to a hotel prepared in advance. However, unexpectedly, an accident occurred. Jiang Qiuyun took a tough bodyguard and directly chose to stay in a five-star hotel.
At this time, he felt very strange: "Yunji is a single girl, so young, beautiful, and very promising as a writer. How can she live with a bodyguard? Even if they are brother and sister, they can't do it."
Shao Lin walked out of the hotel, took out his mobile phone, and logged into an APP, which was said to be connected to 360,000 web cameras. There are tens of thousands of members who pay to peek.
He searched for the hotel where Jiang Qiuyun lived, but unfortunately could not find the relevant video link.
"Oh, no chance this time."
With his status, he didn't dare to kidnap openly. Let alone kidnapping, even if you really get the nude photos, you can only ask someone else to come forward and scare the little girl, and then he will come out to make peace and help solve the trouble, thus indirectly getting benefits.
To be honest, he was lucky this time. If something really happened, Lu Cheng would definitely go to his house and beat him to a pulp!
It is true that Lu Cheng is a good person, but he cannot touch his taboos. If you really want to piss him off, murder and arson are trivial matters. He doesn't have to do it himself, just throw a "Fire Talisman" to turn the entire building into ashes.
In the hotel, Jiang Qiuyun asked: "Why don't you speak today? Do you hate Mr. Shao?"
Lu Cheng said: "Yes. Not only can I sense beautiful jade, but I can also tell whether people are good or bad. I can get a general idea of a good person or a bad person just by looking at him."
"How is this possible?"
"Because I have opened my heavenly orifice, I can sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and I can also distinguish the pure and turbid energy of people. Generally speaking, good people's pure energy rises, bad people's turbid energy rises, and there may be a stench..."
"So is Mr. Shao a good guy or a bad guy?"
"He is definitely not a good person. Fortunately, I came with him. If you came to the Magic City alone, you would definitely suffer."
"What harm can I suffer? Does he dare to hurt me openly?"
"There are endless evil spirits and evil methods."
"What you said is a bit scary. I will listen to you and won't sign a contract with him next time."
"It doesn't matter just signing a contract. Don't contact him alone. If you come to Shanghai again, don't let him know."
"I didn't expect him. He looks well-dressed. Is he really that bad?"
"If you don't believe it, you can investigate to see if there are other female authors under this person, what kind of contracts they have signed, and whether the royalties are high or low."
"The fee he paid me was not low. I am a newcomer, so 10% is quite a lot."
"Ask, how much are other female authors?"
"Just a moment."
As a top author on Fanghua Novel Network, Jiang Qiuyun has a large group of authors. When she goes up to ask, she will know who has signed a contract with Shao Lin. Then she privately adds QQ to contact them, and in less than an hour, she gets two answers.
The two female authors signed long-term contracts, and the royalties for the first publication were 9%, but for the second time they were reduced to 8%!
When I asked them the reason, they all told me that there had been a sudden change, which was too difficult to explain in one sentence.
Jiang Qiuyun felt strange and said to Lu Cheng: "Generally speaking, the more an author writes, the higher the level of the work, and the royalties should be increased. Why did these two people not increase but decrease? If this is the case, why did they sign a long-term contract? "
Lu Cheng said: "Try to ask again, did Shao Lin use dirty tricks? Maybe he didn't come forward personally, but asked someone to arrange the dirty work?"
Jiang Qiuyun sent the message, and the other party fell into silence for a long time.
Those who can write novels can be said to be smart people.
After these people suffered a loss, they learned the hard way and naturally suspected Shao Lin, but because there was no evidence, they could not file a lawsuit. Moreover, the other party may still have leverage over them.
After a long time, one of the female authors sent a message: "Sister Yunji, you must be careful. Don't stay in that kind of dirty hotel. Check the hotel carefully to see if there are cameras!"
When Jiang Qiuyun saw this news, her expression suddenly changed, and she thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you for the reminder, I will help you with the chapters later!"
She was moved and frightened, and said, "Lu Cheng, are there any cameras in the hotel where we are staying?"
Lu Cheng said: "I checked it when I came in yesterday. Then you fell asleep. I couldn't sleep alone, so I checked it carefully again. It should be fine. Besides, you wear clothes when you sleep."
"Is there a camera in the bathroom?"
"Absolutely not. The walls there are very smooth and it's not easy to install a camera. I've seen several recessed places."
"It would be disgusting if the video leaked out."
Although Jiang Qiuyun is young, she is not a charming lady. She studied nursing and was exposed to all kinds of dirty work, so her mental state is not that fragile. Having said that, once indecent photos are spread, it will definitely make her feel upset.
"What is this! It's so dirty! I want to go home."
"Be patient for one more night. You still have many readers waiting."
"I will never sign a contract with someone named Shao next time!"
"Well, find a good publisher."
“I doubt there are any good publishers these days.”
"There will always be. You can't kill everyone with one shot."
"Lu Cheng, fortunately you are here..."
