CEO Lu decided that he had enough of this and took three steps towards Hou Yi and started to throw a punch towards Hou Yi's face. As if in slow motion, Hou Yi in a smooth movement, threw one arm up to block and stretch the arm, and the other to deliver a blow to the arm, that left CEO Lu screaming.

"Would you like to try again? Just because I held back to protect my wife's fragile emotional state when your son decided to bully her, does not mean I cannot defend myself."

"You b*stard," responded CEO Lu, who decided to try and kick Hou Yi.

Hou Yi moved slightly and then bent his body while the kick went into the air. He then crouched down and swept a leg that knocked CEO Lu off his legs, given he was not stable on the ground.

"As much as you keep trying, the more I will avoid."

"Screw you, you b*stard."

"Language, so that is something else that your son has learnt from you. If you want, I can keep teaching you a lesson, or do you want to talk business."

Hou Yi was sick of this game and wanted to end it before anyone got seriously hurt, as he could see that CEO Lu's bodyguards had realised that his earlier comments where a bluff and ready to react.

"Business. I want this sorted and your signature on the dotted line before I let these gentlemen," and CEO Lu indicated to his bodyguards "have their fun."

"Well," and Hou Yi raised his voice "my three other bodyguards might have something to say about that." With that three additional guards stepped out from different directions. "I told you that I did not trust you, and that they were hidden. So, lets get down to business."

"Why should I, you broke the rules for the meeting."

"Who did it first? You, who ever intended to comply or me, who asked the others to wait away from the area because I wanted to give you an opportunity for me to trust you."

"You, You …."

"Settle down, you want to talk business, so let go ahead with that."

"You know the deal, give me what I want, and I will not release the photos and footage, real or fake that I have of your wife."

"So, let me get this right, you are blackmailing me, in that you will not release the photos and footge to the press if I give you Hou Enterprises, agree to my wife spending 20 years in jail, and you to receive 800 million US dollars."

"You have it right, and blackmail is such a dirty word. I figured the real and fake photos and film I have regarding your wife is worth, let me be conservative, 8 billion US dollars, if not more. That is what you are buying."

"I am not buying anything, all I am doing giving into blackmail to prevent you from doing something without guarantees that you will not continue your actions."

"You have it perfectly right. I will continue to require payments, any business you start, you can have for 5 years then it becomes mine along with another 100 million US dollars payment."

"Blackmail, as I said …"

"As I told you, it is the price you have to pay. And guess what, given your wife is friendly with CEO Yao's new wife, he will have the same deal. The two of you are determined to destroy me, and I will take what I want, as neither of you will stand by and watch what I can do without giving into my demands"

"Well …"

Hou Yi paused, as in walked Officer Mu, pleasantly surprised to see that he was wrong about CEO Lu attending the meeting. He had been listening to the whole exchange on the mobile Hou Yi dialed him on and was listening in person since arriving just as the meeting was starting hidden from view.

"Let me introduce you to someone who I believe would like to meet you and speak to you further about what you want."

"I do not need to talk to anyone, you are going to give me what I want, and given the delay in agreeing to my terms, to stop me releasing those photos now, you have to hand over a billion dollars US, and your wife has to spend thirty years in jail, and you five years simply for p*ssing me off."
