Chapter 1440


    "Tell me, what''s going on?" Ingram asked.


    The subordinate immediately said, "The next singer is making a fuss backstage. She doesn''t want


    to perform in revealing outfits, and that''s what''s holding back the performance."


    He frowned. He mmed his palm on the table and bellowed, "Who does she think she is? Other


    singers were performing just fine, yet she decided to make a scene all of a sudden?"


    "Does she even know her ce? Who does she think she is to be acting against us? She doesn''t


    get to pick a thing! Find someone and make her go on stage. I want to see her performance right


    away!"


    The subordinate hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, Young Master Zhao. I''ll get Susie Song on stage


    right away."


    At the mention of this name, Fade who was about to leave the venue, immediately froze in ce.


    His gaze was cold as he stared into the distance.


    "Susie Song?" Fade frowned. Yuri did mention at their dinner the night before that Susie was


    preparing for an important performance and had to skip the dinner.


    Could it be that her rehearsal that night was for this? His heart skipped a beat at this thought.


    Thinking back to the revealing outfits and performances by the artists earlier, as well as the perverts


    among the crowd, his face fell and he strode towards the backstage area.


    "Instructor Chen, where are you going?" Romeo was startled, then he quickly followed after him.


    At the backstage area, he saw a number of celebrities preparing to go on stage, and there were a


    few familiar faces whom he had often seen on TV.


    The beautiful female singers were all wearing revealing outfits while doing their final rehearsals. The


    scene was strange to even look at.


    Fade couldn''t help but to picture Susie being forced into outfits like these, and his steps quickened


    at his thoughts.


    He arrived at the entrance of the wardrobe, and before he could make his entrance, he could


    already hear sounds of quarreling from the inside.


    "This is not a ce for you to make a fuss at, especially when we have guests of this scale outside!


    Get changed and get on stage now!" A man yelled.


    Then, there was a woman''s voice saying, "I''m fine with performing, but not in such outfits. You didn''t


    mention this at all when we were rehearsing earlier!"


    "Artists, who are way more well known than you, have already performed looking like that. What''s


    wrong with you revealing a little bit more?" The man asked.


    "I don''t care about them, but I will never wear it. If you dare force me, I''ll leave immediately," she


    said.


    "If you dare to refuse, I can guarantee that your career as a celebrity will be over!" The man


    shouted.


    "Then, I''ll just stop being one," she said.


    "You, stop right there! You have to perform whether you like it or not. This is no longer a negotiation


    but an order!" He yelled.


    "I don''t..." She wanted to say something.


    "Stop pushing our limits! Someonee over and force her to change right now!" He yelled.


    "Let go of me..."


    Fade couldn''t hold back any longer when he heard the conversation. He kicked the door open and


    rushed into the room.


    Several men were holding the woman down, ripping off her clothes, while she continued to struggle


    even though she was clearly not strong enough to fight them off.


    She was none other than Susie.


    "Get lost!" Fade let out a furious roar and rushed over.


    "Who are you? What..."


    He mmed them down without waiting for them to finish their sentence. He then pulled Susie


    towards him as he took off his coat and draped it around her. Heforted her by putting his arm


    around her shoulders and said, "Sister Song, I''m here now. You''ll be fine now."


    Susie was so frightened that her face was covered in tears. She was surprised to see him. "Why,


    why are you here? Fade, I..."


    He said in a deep voice, "Don''t worry, Sister Song. As long as I''m here, no one will dare to do


    anything to you."


    A subordinate rushed into the room at that moment. He pointed a finger at Fade after watching the


    scene and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing? Hurry up..."


    "Get out!" Fade kicked him away.


    "How dare you... I''m a subordinate of Young Master Huang!" The other party introduced himself, but


    before he could say anything more, he was kicked by Fade and he fainted.


    Then, Fade left with Susie in his arms.


    However, they didn''t manage to go far as a group of people was walking towards their direction, and


    the leader of the pack was Ingram.


    Seeing the scene in front of him, Ingram''s eyes darkened and he said coldly, "It''s you again."


    Ingram''s gang also shouted.


    "Hey, what are you doing here? Are you ruining our mood again?"


    "What do you have against us?"


    "D*mn it, I was just getting excited and you just had to ruin things for me!"


    Fade looked at the group of people coldly and said in a low voice, "Sister Song is my friend. She


    said that she doesn''t want to perform, thus I''m taking her away now."


    "She doesn''t want to perform? She had signed a contract! She can''t just leave the scene!"


    "She''s nothing but a mere performer. Stop acting high and mighty. It''s your honor to be able to


    perform for us. How dare you be so picky?"


    In the midst of the shouting, Ingram looked over at Fade with his dark gaze and said, "I don''t care


    who she is to you, but she has to continue with the performance, or else she will be insulting me


    and I will never allow this."


    "Then, just treat it as an insult," Fade hooked his arm around Susie''s waist and strode forward.


    Ingram shouted coldly, "Stop him!"


    In an instant, all the young martial artists and bodyguards, who were behind Ingram, immediately


    stood in front of Fade, blocking his path.


    He looked around and said in a cold voice, "Whoever stands in my way must die!"


    "You arrogant piece of sh*t! I am from the Liu family and I''m going to stop you today. I''ll see if you


    dare..." A rich young man stepped out and stood in front of him arrogantly.


    Fade did not hold back either. Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, he kicked him squarely


    in the chest.


    With a loud thump, the man was sent flying away. His body flew more than ten meters in the air


    before crashing into the wall, where he slid to the ground. There was a dent in his chest, and if he


    wasn''t dead by the attack, he was most likely greatly injured.


    With such an attack, everyone was deeply


    shocked.


    "You actually hit him!"


    "That''s Young Master Liu. How dare you..."


    "Do you know that you''ve brought huge trouble upon yourself?"


    Fade''s eyes swept around as he shouted, "Who else wants to stop me?"


    They kept quiet out of fear and took a few steps back. They dared not look him in the eye.


    Fade snorted coldly. He held Susie in his arms, and continued moving forward.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
