“You go back and give a message to Ah Long. Brother Jiang Ming is back, Tong City will be ours from now on, be smart or I’ll smash all the venues he watches, one day at a time.”
My eyes snapped open, so surprised that I couldn’t catch a word for half a day. That was the name, I couldn’t have been wrong.
I wasn’t sure if this man had anything to do with my dad’s death or not, but it was the only lead I had at the moment.
I snapped back to consciousness when I felt a huge pain in my pinky finger as I wavered.
Jin was so arrogant that he was slicing downwards with the knife pressed against my pinky, when suddenly he felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and I don’t know how, but the knife was gone from his hand.
When he came back to his senses, the knife was already against his neck. I held the blade in my backhand, and the palm of my hand was still bleeding from the knife blade I had just grabbed with my bare hands.
Gasping for air, I slapped his face with the back of the blade, and Jin was blinded for two seconds, then let loose a scream.
“You… how… how did you do that?”
I couldn’t possibly answer his question, of course, and grabbed the two sea bowls on the table and slammed them down on Jin’s head.
Jin wobbled, his eyes rolled back, his feet faltered, and then he fell head over heels.
“He’s injured Brother Jin, don’t let him go, go on!” Liu Hu was the first to react and shouted out.
Only then did the crowd wake up as if from a dream and surged towards me like a tidal wave.
There were at least a hundred people here, all blocking the entrance to the small, crowded room, just to catch this woman?
I was so angry that I was speechless. I had no interest in their triad affairs, so I was unlucky today.
Despite the crowd, the private room was not large and not many people could squeeze in front of me, I could still manage.
Xia Gehuai leaned against the sofa, grasping a stool leg in his hand, giving it to whoever came, without any ambiguity: “Zhang Chao, this is not the way to go on, they are fighting in wheels, we can even die of exhaustion!”
Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Hu’s mouth shouted, “Fight, they can’t hold out!” But he himself kept retreating backwards.
When he took a few steps back, he hit a man on the back and cursed in anger, “D*mn you, you don’t have eyes.”
As he cursed, he turned around and the man standing behind him grinned back at him, but this grin made Liu Hu unable to laugh.
“Long, Long, Long, Brother Long ……”
Without saying a word, Big Dragon opened his bow left and right and slapped Liu Hu’s face twice. Liu Hu spun around in place like a gyroscope, and then sat on his butt on the ground.
Only then did he see that behind Big Dragon, there were people all over the place, and each one was copying a guy.
“D*mn it, you’re all tired of making trouble in my territory.” Big Dragon spat on the ground, he saw me in the crowd and muttered, “Young master, why are you here?” Then he shouted, “D*mn it, give me a beating, throw them all out afterwards, don’t leave any hands left!”
Liu Hu knew that he was doomed and flung himself down on his knees to Big Dragon, “Brother Dragon, for the sake of our Green Dragon Gang, spare me.”
Big Dragon grunted, “I’m a proper law-abiding citizen, I wouldn’t dare to look at your triads in the face. But there are rules of the jianghu, this is my territory, my field, I don’t mess with things, things mess with me, you are looking for trouble to find my head, I don’t F**king let you Sh*t on my head.”
“I know, I know, Brother Long, I’m not looking for trouble with you, I have a grudge against Zhang Chao, really, don’t get me wrong.”
“Zhang Chao?” Big Dragon lifted up and stomped him directly on the chest, “If you have a grudge against Zhang Chao, you might as well have a grudge against me!
Liu Hu fell backwards and rolled three or four times on the ground, hitting the wall before stopping.
He couldn’t figure out, even after banging his head, why Ah Long was helping me out three times. In his mind, I was still the same little boy in high school who let people bully him, but unfortunately I wasn’t anymore!
At a command from Big Dragon, the two sides of the men crashed together as heavily as a tidal wave, steel clubs and steel swords clashing with a creepy scraping sound.
“Let’s both hurry.”
Xia Gehuai barely managed to hold himself up, and I scrambled to hold him up, pressing against the wall and heading out.
The Green Dragons and Ah Long’s men were on the verge of a fight and had no time for us, so we could just slip out.
Who knows, just at that moment, Jin got up from the ground and pointed at us and shouted tearfully, “Don’t let Zhang Chao get away! Ah Long, D*mn it, we’ve got your men!”
Before the words left his mouth, he let out an ouch of pain and flopped to the ground like a dog eating Sh*t, as Sister Hong flew up from behind him and stomped on the back of his head with her high heels.
Xia Gehuai’s jaw almost dropped as he watched, “A heroic woman, was it really her who shouted rape?”
I was about to doubt my eyes too, with such strong women, it was impossible to say who was stronger.
“Now is not the time to watch the fun, let’s go.”
I grabbed Xia Gehuai’s sleeve and turned to walk no more than a few steps before someone blocked my way.
The narrow corridor was packed with hundreds of people and there was no way we could escape. These people were surrounded by Big Dragon and were now expecting to capture me for a way out.
Seeing that I was trapped, Big Dragon immediately told his men to stop.
“Jin Lao Si, if you want to get out of the Juchun Garden alive today, let Zhang Chao go!”
Jin Laosi was under Sister Hong’s feet, crushed to death, so how could he speak?
Sister Hong giggled and nudged her toe at Jin Laoshi’s bald head, “Why don’t you tell your men to make way?”
“You can’t make way! Brother Jin, as long as we hold Zhang Chao, Big Dragon can’t do anything to us! Otherwise we’ll lose our men today, and if word gets out, where will the Green Dragon Gang’s face go?!” As Jin Lao Si hesitated, Liu Hu shouted with his hands in the air.
Those who had already been about to move aside, once they heard Liu Hu say that, they surrounded the way they had given way again.
Fearing Big Dragon, Liu Hu pouted and hid behind him. Liu Hu’s face was swollen and even a little transparent to the light, so it was clear how painful those slaps were.
“Zhang Chao, you’re not going anywhere today.”
If his eyes could kill, I would have died a million times in his sight. His teeth were clacking, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had a look that I could never have imagined in high school.
Xia Gehuai held back the pain and spat at him in pooh: “We can’t leave, and neither can you!”
“Hahahaha.” Liu Hu looked as if he had heard an unbelievably funny joke and laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes, “You think you can walk around in Tong City just because Big Dragon is covering you? Let me tell you, Big Dragon is just one of Han Kun’s dogs, what we are selling is Jun Ran’s face. In Han Kun’s territory, Big Dragon can cover you. If you have the guts to stay under Big Dragon’s crotch for the rest of your life, otherwise, if you leave Junran’s territory for one step, you’ll never have a F**king chance to live in peace!”
