I became a movie star at the age of three; Dilraba and I are childhood sweethearts.

There was no anger, no mockery in those eyes, only indifference.

It was as if Jung Yunho wasn't even qualified to be his opponent.

It's just a speck of dust that accidentally gets on your clothes; you can easily flick it off.

This utter contempt was more painful than killing him.

"It's so noisy."

Xiao Chen finally spoke, his brows furrowed slightly, clearly disliking the noise.

Just three words.

Deputy Director Zhang immediately yelled at the security guards.

"Shut them up!"

The next second, the security guards covered their mouths, and the agent's pitiful pleas for mercy came to an abrupt end.

The corridor finally returned to silence.

Deputy Director Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned around and bowed to Xiao Chen and Wang Jinhua.

"Sister Hua, Teacher Xiao Chen, I'm so sorry!"

"It was a major oversight on our part that allowed such an rude person to disturb you."

"I assure you, from this day forward, these people will never appear on Hunan TV again!"

"forever!"

He kept a very low profile, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

Wang Jinhua glanced at him, her expression softening slightly.

"Director Zhang, you're exaggerating. This matter has nothing to do with you."

She knew that Xiao Chen didn't like to take his anger out on others.

Xiao Chen took the water from Wang Jinhua, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip.

"We've got the water, let's go back."

He didn't look at those people even once from beginning to end.

What just happened was nothing more than a trivial farce.

But for others, this farce was a storm capable of destroying everything.

The members of TVXQ, dragged out of the Hunan TV building, fell awkwardly onto the steps at the entrance.

This attracted countless fans who watched and screamed.

Their manager snapped out of it and, instead of fixing his appearance, went on a rampage, yelling at the members.

"Do you even know who you just offended?!"

"That's Xiao Chen! It's Xiao Chen!"

All five members of TVXQ were stunned.

Only now have they truly grasped what the name means.

Especially Jung Yunho, he felt dizzy and his vision went black.

Xiao Chen!

How could it be him?

How could that boy, who looks even younger than me, possibly be the legend standing at the top of the world?

Before they came to China, the company repeatedly warned them that there were several artists they absolutely could not offend.

And at the top of that list was Xiao Chen.

But what did he just do?

He actually pointed at Xiao Chen's nose and demanded that he bow and apologize?

A chilling coldness shot from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head.

He's finished.

TVXQ is finished too.

The agent scrambled and stumbled as he tried to rush into the building.

"Quickly! Go apologize!"

"We must beg for Mr. Xiao Chen's forgiveness!"

"Otherwise, we'll have absolutely no way to survive in China... no, in the whole world!"

Several members also realized what was happening.

Ignoring her idol image and the astonished looks of the fans around her, she followed her manager like a madwoman.

However, they were stopped by security guards as soon as they rushed to the door.

"Director Zhang has given an order that these individuals are never to set foot on Hunan TV again."

The agent suddenly knelt on the ground, hugging the security guard's leg and crying out.

"Please make an exception! I beg you! Let us go in and see Teacher Xiao Chen just once! Just once!"

"Our captain didn't do it on purpose! He just doesn't recognize someone's true worth!"

Jung Yunho also knelt down, followed by Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoo-sam...

Five people knelt down in unison at the entrance of Hunan TV.

Facing the building, he used all his strength to perform a perfect 90-degree bow.

"Teacher Xiao Chen! I'm sorry!"

Their voices were uniform, choked with sobs, and filled with fear and regret.

The surrounding fans were stunned.

What's going on?

You should know that in Xiao Chen's previous life, K-pop stars were considered to be extremely high and mighty.

They only see China as a market for making money, and have always looked down on China and its people.

There were even domestic TV hosts who knelt down before idols from the "Universe Country".

This is the first time I've seen an idol from the Universe Kingdom so servile.

And in the dressing room.

Xiao Chen had his eyes closed, letting the makeup artist apply makeup to his face.

An Yixuan and Liu Yifei curiously came over.

"What's going on outside? It sounded really noisy just now."

Xiao Chen didn't even lift his eyelids, and said indifferently.

"It was just a few flies, and it's already been dealt with."

Wang Jinhua stood to the side, her phone ringing incessantly.

She walked to a corner and answered a phone call.

"Okay, I understand."

"Pass the notice down to all artists and all projects under Shishiba Culture."

"We will refuse any form of cooperation with TVXQ and their management company in the future."

"Also, let's give a heads-up to a few companies we know in the industry."

"They understand what I mean."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jinhua looked at the handsome face in the mirror, her eyes filled with doting affection and heartache.

The boy she watched grow up should be the center of attention wherever he goes; how could he suffer such injustice?

Since some people are so blind, she doesn't mind making them disappear from their sight forever.

Soon, Xiao Chen finished her makeup and was ready to go on stage for the recording.

As soon as he stepped out of the dressing room, he saw Deputy Director Zhang still standing guard at the door, looking anxious.

Upon seeing Xiao Chen, he immediately came forward, rubbing his hands together, and spoke cautiously.

"Teacher Xiao Chen, I'm really sorry about what happened just now."

Xiao Chen smiled, the spring breeze was gentle.

"It's okay."

"Just don't let it affect the recording of the show."

The more nonchalant he seemed, the more uneasy Deputy Director Zhang felt.

He knew that this guy's influence was far beyond what a boy band from another universe could match.

Deputy Director Zhang dared not say anything more and respectfully led the way.

Meanwhile, in the hotel room where TVXQ was staying, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.

The agent's phone hadn't stopped ringing since they got back to the hotel.

One.

again.

They were all notified that the cooperation had been cancelled.

"Hey, Mr. Li? What? The phone launch event tomorrow... it's canceled?"

"A cameo role in the movie... is that... not necessary either?"

"What! They even crossed us off the list for next month's variety concert?"

With each phone call the agent received, his face grew paler.

In the end, he let his arms fall limply, muttering to himself, his eyes vacant.

"It's all gone."

"All our trips, business activities, and performances in China have been cancelled."

One member couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice.

"Why...why is this happening?"

"We've already apologized!"

The agent gave a bitter laugh and looked up at them.

"Xiao Chen has given the word."

"From now on, he will not appear anywhere TVXQ is."

In China, and even in the global entertainment industry, this is a choice.

This is a choice that any event organizer, brand owner, or TV station could make with their eyes closed.

Do you want a boy band from the universe that's somewhat famous in Asia?

Or do we need a genius star who can leverage global capital, has fans all over the world, and is synonymous with both popularity and quality?

The answer is self-evident.

Jung Yunho sat blankly on the ground.

He remembered the look Xiao Chen gave him at the end.

It turns out that in that person's eyes, crushing them was really as easy as flicking away a speck of dust.

It's simple and not worth mentioning.
