Chapter 82 - The Angry Yang Haodong
A few hours later, Yang Haodong finished writing his chapters and was preparing to upload the new chapters on the Runningnovel website.
However, after he opened the "Author's Area" page, he found that Battle Through the Paradise had disappeared.
Feeling that it might be because of a bug, Yang Haodong tried to refresh the page several times, but the result was still the same.
Yang Haodong also tried to search for his book in the Reader's Area, but after typing "Battle Through the Paradise" and pressed the search button, only "Sorry, no result is found" appeared.
…
Ten minutes later, after trying every method available, the result was still the same.
"My book disappeared? Or did someone from Runningnovel delete it?" Yang Haodong whispered with a very ugly expression.
Just because he didn't want to sign a contract with them, they deleted his book?
Yang Haodong took exhaled a foul breath and picked up his phone to dial the customer service number of Runningnovel company.
"Hello, welcome to customer service of Runningnovel. What can I help you with?" A sweet female voice resounded.
"Hi, I am the author of Battle Through the Paradise. Why did my book disappear suddenly?" Yang Haodong put on a calm expression and asked normally.
"Please wait a moment, sir. I will help you check the problem."
A few seconds later, the sweet voice sounded again, "Apologies, sir. It seems like there has never been a book called Battle Through the Paradise on our website."
Yang Haodong's calm expression turned black in an instant, "Are you sure about that? Don't tell me that you don't know my book too! Runningnovel? What a good Runningnovel!"
Then, without waiting for the other party to reply, Yang Haodong ended the call directly. He knew that she must have been ordered from the management team of that company, so continuing to talk wouldn't make any sense at all.
Yang Haodong clenched his fist, his muscles bulged, and his veins swelled.
A few minutes later, he calmed down and made another call.
"Oh, the sun must rise from the north for brother Haodong to call me!" A surprised voice sounded from the other side of the phone.
"Xiu Mo, do you know Battle Through the Paradise?" Yang Haodong skipped the gibberish and dived into the subject directly.
Xiu Mo didn't seem to mind Yang Haodong's straightforwardness as he said, "Battle Through the Paradise? Hehe, of course I know it. As the president of the National Writers Association, how can I not know such a precious masterpiece? But why do you ask this?"
Yang Haodong took a deep breath and revealed, "I am the author of that book."
"Ah!" Xiu Mo let out a sound of exclamation and said, "You're that book's author? Our mighty military governor Yang Haodong of Tong City can actually write such a good novel?"
"What? You're looking down on me?" Yang Haodong rolled his eyes unhappily.
"By the way, what are you telling me this for?" Xiu Mo asked curiously. Since Yang Haodong decided to call him and tell him this secret out of nowhere, there must be more to it.
"It's nothing much, but Battle Through the Paradise suddenly disappeared from that website. I figured that it might have something to do with the upper management team of that company. I don't know what to do so I called you."
"Huh? You call this 'nothing much'?" Xiu Mo exclaimed again. "This is a big matter! As a diehard fan of your novel and you, this matter is extremely big! Don't worry, I will help you solve it. I will give you good news soon."
Yang Haodong was taken aback, he didn't expect that this guy was his fan. But he replied, "Good, then I will wait for good news."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Haodong leaned on his chair.
Actually, Yang Haodong could find the number of the president of Runningnovel by himself and called the other party directly. But he didn't want to reveal his identity to them so he chose to call Xiu Mo instead.
That guy Xiu Mo was from the Xiu Family in Holy Martial Capital City. A few decades ago, when Yang Haodong went to battle in the abyss, he rescued a weak-looking guy with glasses from the claws of a monster. Later, Yang Haodong and that guy became good friends.
And that guy was of course Xiu Mo, the second young master of the prominent Xiu Family.
The power of the Xiu Family was really not small, however, since Xiu Mo didn't have much accomplishment in martial arts, the position of the head of the family fell into the hand of his big brother.
Fortunately, Xiu Mo, this naughty and fanatical guy, was not interested in that position since young and he and his brother had a very good relationship with each other, therefore, Xiu Mo's power was only second to his big brother in his family.
But even with such great power, Xiu Mo still didn't care. The only things he cared about were novels and monsters.
Not long after, Yang Haodong's phone rang and it woke him up from his thoughts. Picking up the phone, it was Xiu Mo.
"Brother Haodong, I found out why your book disappeared. This actually has something to do with my National Writers Association. It turns out that a famous author called Liu Fei bribed my bastard secretary and my bastard secretary ordered the Runningnovel company to mess with your book… For this, I apologize to you," Xiu Mo said quickly and apologized Yang Haodong quietly.
"Well, don't worry about it, it's not your fault," Yang Haodong chuckled and said.
"Also, I have already punished my bastard secretary, Yi Renhei. He's not my secretary anymore. Right, I also deleted that Liu Fei guy's name from my association and slapped him down from the position of Martial City's Writers Association's chairman. That Liu Fei guy actually scolded you a lot on social media. Battle Through the Paradise should reappear now. One more thing, as compensation, I want to give you the Abyssal Diamond Bamboo."
"Abyssal Diamond Bamboo? This is not good, right? You don't have to do this at all," Yang Haodong smiled and praised this guy for being such a righteous and understand person secretly in his heart. But if Xiu Mo really gave him that treasure, Xiu Mo would be the best person in Yang Haodong's heart.
"No, I have to give it to you. This thing wasn't bought with my money either, it is a bribe given to Yi Renhei by Liu Fei," Xiu Mo said firmly and left no room for rejection.
Yang Haodong could only laugh helplessly and accept the 'compensation' reluctantly, "Fine, just send it to my address."
"Oh, I almost forgot. There's one more thing. That Liu Fei guy has a very good relationship with the Wu Family in Martial City. I think it has something to do with the Wu Family. If you need my help, just call me. If I can't help you, I will ask my big brother to help you."
"All right, thank you this time."
"Yeah, if I have the opportunity, I will go to Tong City and ask for your autograph. See you."
After the call was hung up, Yang Haodong closed his eyes and muttered, "Wu Family? I see. It turned out to be that dog family. Liu Fei? The author of Infinity Mountain of Chaotic Snow? I didn't expect an author like him to be such a narrow-minded person."
Now, that Liu Fei and the bastard secretary of Xiu Mo had received their punishment. After they had offended Xiu Mo, their fat would end.
One more thing, according to what Xiu Mo had told him earlier, Liu Fei scolded him a lot on social media?
Yang Haodong was too busy writing novels and dealing with some affairs related to his work these days, so he had no time to pay attention to things on social media.
Taking out his phone, Yang Haodong opened UU and searched for Liu Fei.
As Xiu Mo said, this damnable guy really scolded him a lot. But what made him angry was that he didn't just scold him alone, he also scolded his father, Yang Song, at that.
It was fine if he scolded him alone, Yang Haodong would let the matter here. But he actually touched his inverse scale, then just be prepared to receive the real punishment.
Since young, Yang Haodong knew that although his father was quite shameless and cunning, he knew that in the entire family, his father actually suffered the most. He had to run here and there, do this and that, to raise him and his younger brothers.
Other people could scold him however they wished to, but if they dared to even just insult his father's hair, then he would never forgive those offenders.
That Liu Fei scolded his father for being an ignorant old man who knew nothing about novels? This must be the greatest joke he had ever heard in so many years.
That Liu Fei cursed his father to die soon? This must be the evilest curse in Yang Haodong's ears.
Good, Yang Haodong had decided. He would find that guy and teach him a profound lesson. He didn't care even if he had to commit a crime.
