Chapter 1705 -1645: Trouble Arrives_2

“Oh?” The obese General Manager Jin looked confused at the scar-faced man.

General Manager Jin was in business, but not the kind of legitimate business. It involved some shady dealings, so he often had connections with some illegal forces. This scar-faced man, whose real name was Hua Xiaolong, was a tough character, usually doing things in an arrogant and domineering way, never following any rules of the street.

Now, suddenly talking about rules made General Manager Jin somewhat uncomfortable.

Hua Xiaolong said slowly, “That’s right, we need to talk about rules, otherwise people would say we’re bullying others.” His gaze fell on Qi Lanqin and Feng Kexin, such beautiful and classy girls, really hard to come by.

Seeing the opponent’s posture, Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou knew these people were not good, but hearing them talk about rules, they mustered some courage. Liu Caiyou said, “He just harassed my girlfriend, that’s why there was a conflict. Besides, I just pushed him a bit, he fell because he drank too much.”

Hua Xiaolong squinted his eyes and said, “Oh, is that so? Then it’s much simpler to deal with. You’re the one who pushed General Manager Jin, our rule is you break a hand for hitting with a hand, a leg for a kick. You pushed General Manager Jin with both hands, so we’ll just waste both your hands.”

Hua Xiaolong said this lightly, but it made Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou, Zhao Fei’er turn pale.

Only then did General Manager Jin understand, he clapped his hands immediately, and said, “Right, right, that’s the rule, didn’t you hear it, kid? Are you going to cripple your own hands, or should we do it for you? Of course, crippling them yourself might have some restraint, but if our brothers do it, there’s no guarantee of holding back. They might just entirely ruin your arms, haha…”

Liu Caiyou, trembling with fear, stammered, “Brother Xiao Long, it’s just a small conflict, I was wrong, please have mercy and let us go.”

Chapter 1646

Liu Caiyou and Wang Cong were also young, but they were not the kind who dared to cause trouble. If this had happened in their own lives, they might not have been so cowardly.

But this was Kun City, a place they were unfamiliar with. They had no courage at all when encountering such people who were clearly mixed in with the underworld, and reason was useless, so they instinctively became timid.

General Manager Jin sneered and said, “Let you go? When you pushed me down, why didn’t you say that, and this girl, she even kicked me back then, so what do you say now? How should we handle this?”

Zhao Fei’er turned even paler upon hearing this, stammering anxiously, “No, no, you fell, I tripped over you, I didn’t mean to kick you.”

Hua Xiaolong snorted, “No matter what, you have hit and pushed, General Manager Jin is a buddy of mine, hitting him means slapping my face, and I, Hua Xiaolong, still need some face. I can’t lose face, you two…” He gestured at Liu Caiyou, his eyes wide open, “Hurry and get over here!”

Wang Cong wasn’t directly involved, so he was somewhat calmer and quickly mustered up the courage to say, “Well… I know my buddy offended you, but we are friends of President Meng of Yuming Industry, can you give President Meng some face?”

Hua Xiaolong furrowed his brows, “Kid, you know someone, and you know President Meng? Then I want to ask, what’s your relationship with President Meng?”

Wang Cong immediately said, “We are business partners of President Meng.”

“Business partners?” Hua Xiaolong suddenly laughed, “Partnerships are so unreliable, General Manager Jin, do you have many business partners?”

General Manager Jin laughed heartily, “I have lots of business partners, I can’t even count them. We’re just making mutual profit, who the hell considers giving face to anyone.”

Hua Xiaolong curled his lips, “If you were any of President Meng’s relatives, we might give some face. You call yourselves business partners, abusing President Meng’s name here, why don’t you try and see if President Meng dares to come and stand up for you?”

Hua Xiaolong had a considerable reputation in Kun City, although he didn’t completely disregard President Meng. If President Meng were really here, he would have to show some respect, but since Wang Cong just mentioned it casually, he naturally wouldn’t care.

Moreover, he came here not only to support General Manager Jin but also because he had taken an interest in Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin. Intimidating them now was to ensure Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin would obediently comply later.

Wang Cong, Liu Caiyou, and Zhao Fei’er had little social experience and couldn’t discern Hua Xiaolong’s true intention, but Song Xiaodong could see his intent in the way he looked at Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin.

“Brother, these people are really annoying.” Feng Kexin whispered into Song Xiaodong’s ear.

Song Xiaodong nodded but did not speak up. He wanted to see how Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou would handle this situation. Because of Qi Lanqin, he intended to help them. Ability could be developed gradually, but he needed to see their character, which isn’t taught. If they had poor character, Song Xiaodong would only help them out of obligation, without much further involvement.

Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou were completely panicked now. To them, President Meng represented their greatest support. If invoking President Meng didn’t work, they really had no other options.

With a cigar in his hand, Hua Xiaolong took a puff, blowing out thick smoke, “Well, do you know anyone else? Just say it all.”

Liu Caiyou took a deep breath, “We know we can’t afford to offend you all, please just tell us what you want, how much compensation?”

Hua Xiaolong squinted his eyes, “Do you think we’re short of money? Or trying to extort you?”

Liu Caiyou asked, “Then what do you want?”

Hua Xiaolong’s squinted eyes suddenly opened wide, glaring intensely, with the scar on his forehead seemingly glowing, “Didn’t you hear what Laozi said just now? You hit my buddy, so I’ll cripple your hand.”

Liu Caiyou and Wang Cong had never encountered someone so fierce, and involuntarily took a step back, Liu Caiyou instinctively hid his hands behind his back, while Wang Cong said with forced bravado, “This…seems a bit too much?”

Hua Xiaolong’s vicious gaze swept over them, “If I say it’s fine, then it’s fine. Let me tell you, around here, I am God. Even if I chopped you up to feed the dogs, nothing would happen to me.”

Zhao Xiaofei was on the verge of tears, sobbing, “What do we have to do?”

Hua Xiaolong waved his hand, “Dammit, I hate seeing women cry the most, it’s irritating. Shut up.”

Zhao Xiaofei immediately covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound for fear of angering Hua Xiaolong, but her chest rose and fell uncontrollably, and tears flowed involuntarily.

General Manager Jin patted Hua Xiaolong on the shoulder, “Alright, Xiao Long, they’re just some out-of-towners, let’s not be too harsh on them, otherwise it makes us people of Kun City look like we have no style.”

Hua Xiaolong rubbed his chin, “You seem to have a point.”

Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou felt a glimmer of hope, perhaps the situation could ease.

Hua Xiaolong looked at them again, “For the sake of General Manager Jin pleading for you, I’ll give you an opportunity.”

“What opportunity?” Wang Cong asked cautiously, knowing that with people like them, such an opportunity wouldn’t be easily given.

Hua Xiaolong’s gaze turned back to Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin, then he said slowly, “Simple, let these three girls accompany us for drinks. As long as General Manager Jin and I are happy, that’s the end of it.”

“Ah?” Zhao Xiaofei exclaimed immediately.

Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou’s expressions changed too. They weren’t fools; they could easily guess what might happen if the three women went to drink with them.

Hua Xiaolong said coldly, “I’ll give you one minute to consider. Either the girls drink with us, or I’ll cripple your hand and that girl’s foot.”

Wang Cong and Liu Caiyou exchanged glances. Liu Caiyou gritted his teeth, “Is there any other choice?”

“No!” Hua Xiaolong answered bluntly.

Liu Caiyou slowly stepped back, his leg against the coffee table, then the hand he had behind his back secretly picked up a bottle, “Sorry, we can’t agree to either of these choices.”
