"Looking so young, sigh, today's students."
"Yeah, why hide their names? Otherwise, it would be hard to tell. Feeling guilty?"
"Probably feeling guilty. A relative of mine went to Japan for work and got severely injured by their extremists on the road. In the end, he was sent back under the pretext of disturbing public order, and they didn't even cover his medical expenses."
After Sun Jun sparked a discussion, some of the other people waiting nearby also began to talk among themselves. A few of them seemed to be there to pick up Japanese friends as well, and to divert attention, they kept mentioning that their guests were normal business representatives, with names clearly displayed on their Clouds.
Although it wasn't to the extent of physical violence, the atmosphere was predominantly one of blaming Yang Xiaoyou. People have a tendency to gawk.
Seeing Yang Xiaoyou being continuously criticized, Sun Jun couldn't help but show a hint of satisfaction on his face. "Take your time earning your credits. Some people are not worth provoking."
The recent upheaval at home had left Sun Jun in desperate need of an outlet for his frustrations. After venting this anger, he felt a sense of relief wash over him; many of his pent-up worries had been released.
Indeed, there were many people whose lives were far worse than his own. Even though his current situation was challenging, it was still infinitely better than that of the fellow in front of him.
Faced with the surrounding accusations, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't be bothered to explain anything. The numbers were clearly against him; trying to clarify would only escalate tensions. What could start as a minor issue could easily turn into a major conflict, where he would be the only one at a disadvantage. Was he supposed to eliminate them all?
Fortunately, the flight was not delayed. Soon after hearing the announcement, the noise around him quieted down as everyone raised their signs high to look towards the exit.
When a stunningly beautiful and coldly elegant woman stepped out from the exit, she caught the attention of many nearby. However, when she turned her head and scanned the area, she headed straight towards Yang Xiaoyou.
"Yang Xiaoyou?" Upon reaching him, she spoke in a cool tone with surprisingly fluent Chinese. It was unclear whether she had mastered it beforehand or had learned it after arriving.
"That's me. You must be Nobunaga Hideyoshi, uh, sir?" Yang Xiaoyou responded, trying to present himself well upon meeting Nobunaga Hideyoshi, though he appeared somewhat hesitant.
"That's right. Let's go." After nodding slightly, Nobunaga Hideyoshi declined Yang Xiaoyou's offer to help carry her luggage and prepared to walk outside directly.
"Sir? Indeed, Japanese people are all perverts." Sun Jun, who was not far away, couldn't help but curse upon hearing this. Initially surprised to see such a beautiful woman was the one Yang Xiaoyou was supposed to meet, he felt a bit unsettled. However, after overhearing their conversation, he couldn't help but feel a sense of mockery.
Upon hearing this, Nobunaga Hideyoshi shot a sharp glance at Sun Jun, causing the four bodyguards beside him to feel a sudden chill. The expression on Sun Jun's face turned pale as he sensed the genuine killing intent emanating from Nobunaga.
Although the killing intent itself varied greatly in intensity, it was not something an ordinary person could easily face. The deliberate release of such intent could easily be felt by ordinary people, but it offered little substantial help in combat.
Many people's power gradually evolved through their killing intent.
However, when Nobunaga Hideyoshi noticed the sign held by them, he frowned and asked Yang Xiaoyou beside him, "Did you come with them?"
"Impossible! Just look at his attitude," Yang Xiaoyou quickly denied. His current status was merely that of an outsider; he certainly didn't want to provoke someone as important as the Chief Steward.
"Then what is this? Why are they using our registered Hong Kong company to pick someone up?" Nobunaga Hideyoshi's handsome face turned cold. He hated it most when others commented on his appearance; it was a gift from his parents, not something he chose for himself.
"Uh, oh, he's the son of the chairman of Cheng Yuanyang Shipping Group. I forgot we acquired it under the name of our Hong Kong company; he's probably here to pick you up," Yang Xiaoyou said with a light knock on his head and a smile. Whether he truly forgot or was pretending to forget was something only he knew.
"Very well, Sun Jiahao has raised his son well. Let's go." After snorting lightly, Nobunaga Hideyoshi took the lead and walked outside.
Meanwhile, Sun Jun stood nearby with a mocking expression as he watched the two of them. After hearing their conversation, he froze for a moment and glanced at the sign held by the bodyguards.
After realizing that no one had come out of the arrival gate and seeing that the two were already walking away, his expression suddenly changed dramatically as if he understood something. Without caring about his status anymore, he rushed after them while shouting, "Sir, please wait! Sir, we have prepared the vehicle!"
At the same time, some onlookers who had already met their targets began to criticize Yang Xiaoyou. Upon seeing Sun Jun's reaction, they felt it was strange; their hearts flashed with mockery as they observed him shift from an assertive demeanor to one resembling that of a servant. The contrast was simply too stark.
"Are you the representative of Hong Kong Bofort Company? I represent Chenghai Shipping Group and would like to express my welcome," Sun Jun panted as he caught up with Yang Xiaoyou and Nobunaga Hideyoshi, wearing a somewhat fawning expression.
Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but admire him; there was a reason he managed to climb to such a position in the student council and maintained order so well. At least he could bend and stretch in ways many others could not. Yang Xiaoyou initially thought that upon learning this news, Sun Jun would leave angrily but was surprised by his current demeanor.
It seemed that Nobunaga Hideyoshi's negotiations were putting significant pressure on Cheng Haiyun.
"I don't want anything to do with you or your car. I don't even want to see you when I'm at your company," Nobunaga Hideyoshi expressed his anger clearly with three refusals.
However, Yang Xiaoyou understood that while Nobunaga was indeed expressing his anger, part of it was also a strategic move to gain leverage for future negotiations.
"Sir, you have truly misunderstood me. Please do not let some unscrupulous individuals ruin our tacit cooperation. I have a personal grudge with this person, and he will definitely slander me maliciously. Furthermore, I was not targeting you just now; it was only him. Here, I once again express my sincerest apologies." Sun Jun immediately laid the conflict bare, bringing his issues with Yang Xiaoyou to the forefront. If Yang Xiaoyou were to speak ill of him in front of Nobunaga Hideyoshi in the future, it would likely tarnish Yang Xiaoyou's image in Nobunaga Hideyoshi's eyes.
Bringing everything to light had its disadvantages, but the advantages were equally apparent. Sun Jun's choice was the best way to rectify his own mistakes.
Given the nature of the negotiations between both sides and the importance of their members, it was not impossible for him to take down Yang Xiaoyou as well. After all, he was the son of the chairman here, while Yang Xiaoyou was merely a part-time worker on the other side, involved in a deal worth hundreds of millions. It was clear who held more weight.
"Oh, so you have a conflict. This company's goal was proposed by you, right? Although mixing personal feelings into business isn't ideal, your choice for this goal is indeed commendable; it suits us well." After hearing Sun Jun's words, Nobunaga Hideyoshi paid no mind and hailed a taxi while calmly addressing Yang Xiaoyou.
"Hehe, sorry about that. I'll be more careful in the future." Yang Xiaoyou scratched his head awkwardly. It was important not to leave a bad first impression on Nobunaga Hideyoshi. As for someone like Sun Jun, was he really worth worrying about?
Just ignore him.
Upon hearing this, Sun Jun was completely thrown into a state of collapse. "Impossible! How could this happen because of such a character!"
With a twisted expression full of rage, Sun Jun could not accept that such a significant change had occurred in his family company due to that person's choice of target. The contrast was simply too much for his heart to bear; he could not remain calm.
He felt as if he were on the brink of collapse, ultimately left with a despondent expression as he numbly stared at the taillights of the taxi.
