Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses

Chapter 169: He is Linjiang’s Number One Young Master, You Cannot Disrespect Him

The next day, around noon.

Jiang Che called Ah Long to the living room, “Arrange a meeting for me. I want to see that Song Tao. At eight o’clock tonight, I’ll be waiting for him at Heaven On Earth.”

“Yes, young master…” Ah Long responded and respectfully retreated, immediately finding someone to pass the message to Song Tao.

In a certain five-star hotel, Song Tao was watching TV somewhat idly when the door suddenly knocked. Song Tao felt a bit puzzled, thinking that no one should be looking for him at this time.

But he didn’t think much and directly opened the door. In front of him stood a man in black clothes and wearing sunglasses. The man’s face was extremely solemn, exuding an aura of authority.

“Who are you?” Song Tao frowned, looking at the man in front of him with some confusion.

He was sure he didn’t know the other person. What did this guy want from him?

“Are you Song Tao?” The man in black didn’t answer Song Tao’s question but instead asked coldly.

“Yes, I am Song Tao.”

“Our young master wants you to meet him at Heaven On Earth at eight o’clock tonight. Remember to be there.” After leaving these words, the man in black turned to leave, never giving Song Tao a proper look, showing no respect at all.

This made Song Tao very unhappy!

Ever since he became a top star in the Chinese music scene, no one had ever dared to disrespect him like this!

Even the bigwigs in the industry would give him some face. And today, he was looked down upon by an unknown person?

“Who is your young master? Why should I go?” Song Tao asked angrily, his face turning blue with fury.

“My young master is Jiang Che of the Jiang family. You can choose not to go.” The man in black turned back and sneered at Song Tao. He knew his young master’s temper well.

No one dared to stand him up. If this guy dared not to go, he definitely wouldn’t see the sun tomorrow. After saying this, the man in black left without looking back, having no intention of entangling with Song Tao further.

“Sister Zhang, who is this Jiang Che?” After the man left, Song Tao went to the next room and asked a woman in her thirties.

This woman was his assistant, responsible for his daily life and various performances.

“Jiang Che is the eldest young master of the Jiang family in Linjiang City. If he wants to see you, you should go and remember not to act high and mighty!” The woman named Sister Zhang pushed her black-framed glasses up her nose and said seriously.

Before coming to Linjiang City, she had specially investigated the distribution of various family forces in the city and knew that the Jiang family had terrifying power here.

“Do you have any grudges with this Jiang young master?” Sister Zhang looked at Song Tao with some suspicion and asked. She had overheard the conversation between the man in black and Song Tao, and it was clear that the man was not friendly.

“No, I don’t know this Jiang Che at all.” Song Tao shook his head, looking a bit bewildered.

Could it be that this Jiang young master was also his fan? After all, besides his female fans, he had quite a few male fans too.

“As long as there’s no grudge. He is probably just curious about you.” Sister Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said. As long as there was no grudge, it was fine. After all, Jiang Che was someone they could never afford to offend.

“Can I not go tonight?” Song Tao frowned and asked. The attitude of the man in black made him very unhappy, and he didn’t want to give face to this so-called Jiang young master.

Just a messenger was so arrogant, so Jiang Che couldn’t be a good person either.

“No, you must go. Disobeying his will, you might not be able to continue in this circle.” Sister Zhang shook her head and said seriously.

She wasn’t exaggerating. The power of capital was that terrifying. Even though Song Tao was currently a top star, just one word from Jiang Che, and Song Tao would fall from grace and be banned from the entire internet!

Song Tao naturally understood this truth. His expression was very gloomy. The reason he wanted to quickly accumulate fame was to amass his capital so that he could jump out of this circle.

Outsiders watched the excitement, but those in the industry knew how deep the waters were. It might look glamorous on the surface, but without a strong background, one was just a puppet of capital, a money-making tool.

If he wanted to turn the tables and become the one playing the game, he had to quickly build his strength and connections.

“I understand. I will go tonight…” Song Tao took a deep breath and said. Enduring for a moment would calm the storm; taking a step back would open the vast sky.

He had already become the top star in the Chinese music scene, just a step away from success. If he was banned at this moment, it would be a devastating blow, preventing him from ever making a comeback. He couldn’t afford to make such a low-level mistake now.

“It’s good that you understand. Besides, meeting Jiang Che might also be an opportunity for you.” Sister Zhang said with a smile, relieved as well.

She was worried that Song Tao would be stubborn and refuse to give Jiang Che face, as young people could be hot-headed. Although Song Tao was a top star, he was clearly outmatched by someone of Jiang Che’s status.

Song Tao didn’t say anything more. For some reason, he had a bad feeling about this meeting with Jiang Che, a feeling of unease that made him very anxious.

“Zhang Jie, I’m going back now.” After saying this, Song Tao returned to his room.

…………

At 7:40 PM, Song Tao parked his car at the entrance of Heaven On Earth, got out, and walked inside.

Jiang Che had asked him to be there by eight, so he arrived twenty minutes early. Entering the lobby, seeing the men and women coming and going, Song Tao frowned, unable to understand why Jiang Che wanted to meet him in such a place.

“Are you Mr. Song Tao?” A young man dressed as a waiter walked up to Song Tao, smiling broadly.

Jiang Che had already shown him a photo, so he knew this was the person Jiang Che wanted to meet. Hence, he was very polite.

“Yes.” Song Tao nodded.

“Then please follow me, sir. Young Master Jiang is waiting for you in the VIP room on the fourth floor.”

The waiter said, leading the way for Song Tao.

The fourth floor of Heaven On Earth was never open to the public and was generally a resting place for the owner. Since Li Hu joined Jiang Che’s camp, it had become Jiang Che’s exclusive room.

Jiang Che inviting Song Tao to such a place for a meeting also showed that he valued this person highly.

Song Tao didn’t think much and directly followed the waiter into the elevator, heading to the fourth floor.
