Chapter 728: Foreign Tourists
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Yes, we are tourists from Europe who came to Song Jiang. There are ice lanterns [1] here. It has a great view and is beautiful!” Edward smiled and explained, “Can you help us call the traffic troubleshooting department?”
“That is okay but I have to see your pa.s.sport. I have to confirm that you’re not illegal immigrants. I don’t want to get into trouble.” Yang Ming said with a poker face.
“Yes, of course.” Edward wasn’t defensive at all. What Yang Ming said was very reasonable and the requirements were not excessive. In the middle of the night with two foreigners at this place, it was normal for a person to be vigilant.
Without putting in much thought, he handed his pa.s.sport to Yang Ming. Yang Ming took a look. This person was called Edward, 38 years old, Hungarian. Yang Ming returned the pa.s.sport to Edward, recalling that he should have nothing to do with Hungarians. However, to be on the safe side, he still spoke to Little Dorsk, “Show me your pa.s.sport as well.”
“Hey, brother, you’re really careful!” Little Dorsk took out his pa.s.sport and handed it to Yang Ming.
Yang Ming took Little Dorsk’s pa.s.sport. He opened it and his pupils shrank a bit.
“Dorsk,” this person was actually surnamed “Dorsk”? Although this surname was rare, Yang Ming wasn’t unfamiliar at all! Shu Ya and I had just mentioned the name of this person!
Yang Ming looked at the appearance of the Little Dorsk. Indeed, there was a resemblance to Dorsk. Could it be…? Yang Ming’s heart palpitated. Is this person the son or relative of Dorsk?
How did this guy come to Song Jiang? Obviously, although Dorsk’s death was related to him, Little Dorsk had no way of knowing. Shu Ya shouldn’t say that even if she wanted to say it. She had no chance to say it.
Was it directed at Shu Ya? With this thought in mind, Yang Ming probably wanted to understand the key of the incident. Shu Ya was a key figure. On the Alice, Dorsk had ill intentions toward Shu Ya. There was no way no one knew it. With Dorsk’s arrogant character, he would inevitably expose his thoughts directly on his face.
Therefore, Dorsk was killed after being in conflict with Shu Ya… Although these two incidents didn’t seem to be relevant, some people with a motive would a.s.sociate the incidents.
It seemed that this Little Dorsk wasn’t a stupid person. He could think of Shu Ya as a breakthrough. It wasn’t easy.
Since Yang Ming roughly grasped the situation, he naturally didn’t need to continue with the act to them. He put Little Dorsk’s pa.s.sport in his pocket. Yang Ming’s face became cold.
“What are you doing?” When Little Dorsk saw Yang Ming put his pa.s.sport in the pocket, he was somehow inexplicable. “That is my pa.s.sport.”
“Let’s stop the act. Did you think that I don’t sleep in the middle of the night and pa.s.sed by here accidentally?” Yang Ming ridiculed them.
Edward heard Yang Ming’s words and his expression changed. He secretly stayed on guard. On the other hand, Little Dorsk still didn’t understand what happened. He said all of a sudden, “What are you doing here?”
“Let me introduce myself. I am Shu Ya’s bodyguard.” Yang Ming was certain that these two people were coming for Shu Ya, so there was no reserve in his speech. “Do we need to find a place to talk?”
“Were you in the van just now?” Edward heard Yang Ming and he didn’t dare to act rashly. Because he also saw that the skills for those who were responsible for Shu Ya’s security at the hotel weren’t weak. Yang Ming, as a personal bodyguard, would definitely be better than those people. Edward was also not sure if he could handle Yang Ming.
“Stop the c.r.a.p. How else would I know if you were in the ditch?” Yang Ming’s English was also becoming more fluent.
“It was deliberate?” asked Edward.
“You can say that.” Yang Ming said, “Let’s talk. What do you want to do with Shu Ya?”
“We don’t have any malicious intent. We just want to ask Miss Shu Ya some questions.” Little Dorsk’s replied. Since Edward didn’t dare to take the shot, it meant that the business on the side of Song Jiang was deep. There were gangs involved. The matter became a bit more complicated.
“What do you want to ask? You can tell me. I will convey it for you. But if you want to meet Miss Shu, that is simply impossible.” Yang Ming said faintly.
“Aren’t you looking down on us too much?” Edward heard Yang Ming’s words and felt a bit sullen. He couldn’t grasp Yang Ming’s background. He didn’t dare to make a move. This already made him felt like a coward, so he would have some resentment at this moment.
“At least in Song Jiang, you don’t have any chances,” said Yang Ming disdainfully.
“Are you a local gang member in Song Jiang?” Little Dorsk heard some clues.
“You can say that.” Yang Ming nodded. “Well, if there is anything you want to say, I will convey it for you. Stop having any alternative motives, or else, I can guarantee that you won’t leave Song Jiang alive.”
Edward’s face was gloomy. He didn’t like Yang Ming’s words but he didn’t doubt the authenticity of his statement. He didn’t know the situation of the gangs here, but on the European side, a gang could really decide a person’s life and death.
“Well, this is our contact information. Please allow me to trouble you and transfer it to Miss Shu. When she is free, give me a call.” Edward hesitated and handed over a business card.
When Yang Ming took the business card, Edward gripped Yang Ming’s hand as though it was an accident. Yang Ming secretly found it funny. It seems that this Edward is unwilling to give up. He still wants to test me.
Yang Ming didn’t care. He held Edward’s hand. As he used his grip, it was as if pliers gripped Edward’s hand. Edward’s grip was already outstanding. However, Yang Ming’s hand had soaked in Fang Tian’s secret medicine, and his strength was far stronger than Edward. Moreover, during Yang Ming’s training days, one exercise had Yang Ming grab a steel pipe with one hand with his whole body suspended. He supported the weight of his whole body with the grip of one hand.
Edward didn’t think that the gap between him and Yang Ming was so big. He thought he gained some respect back. He didn’t expect it to be in shame. His face turned red. Fortunately, it wasn’t obvious in the night.
Yang Ming loosened his hand, and Edward quickly withdrew his hand. He said awkwardly, “I was afraid of losing it. It is hard to find it back again at night.”
Yang Ming smiled coldly and nodded without saying anything. He didn’t think that the two guys would be directly busted here. But, to murder someone in his own country, Yang Ming didn’t want to think about it. His foundation was here. Yang Ming still didn’t want to be suspected.
“I will hand over the business card for you. But, whether Shu Ya contacts you or not, it isn’t something I can determine.” Yang Ming said faintly.
“Okay, thanks for the trouble,” replied Edward.
When Yang Ming turned around and disappeared into the night, Little Dorsk asked, “Why didn’t you keep him here?”
“I am not his opponent.” Edward shook his head.
“Really? You’re not his opponent?” Little Dorsk felt inexplicable.
“Asia’s underworld is not simple. There are talented individuals hiding among the crowd.” Edward sighed.
Little Dorsk was a person involved with the underworld. As he heard Edward said this, his expression became grim. He nodded and said, “Let’s wait and not do anything else. If it doesn’t work, we will do something later.”
“That is our only way. Oh, yes, what do we do now?” Edward frowned and pointed to the car in the ditch.
“Ah? I have forgotten to ask him to help make a call…” Little Dorsk said with a bitter face, “Also, my pa.s.sport…”
Yang Ming came to the place where he parked before. He got into the van and drove home. When he got home, his parents were already asleep. Yang Ming had called his family beforehand and said that he was going to the airport to pick up a friend to let his parents sleep first.
Since Yang Ming confessed a few details, Father Yang and Mother Yang also became more lenient to Yang Ming. They no longer looked at Yang Ming like a child. They gave Yang Ming more personal time.
Moreover, since Yang Ming’s father became a chairman, he had become a lot busier. His father had no time to take care of Yang Ming’s little things.
In this period of time, the smiles on his parents’ faces had obviously increased a lot. Yang Dahai was in a high position, and the number of people who came to brown-nose him was obviously much more. Even the community director had come to the door and hoped that Mother Yang could return to work in the community. He even promised to solve the problem of the staffing structure as soon as possible.
After Yang Dahai got experience in this period of time, he was also more prudent. He directly turned down the community director. Yang Dahai had already discussed it with his wife. If nothing happened, she would go to the factory to help.
Anyway, Mother Yang was also laid off from the factory. She was also familiar with the factory. Although she could return to the community work, she wouldn’t be a cleaner as before, getting ordered here and there. She would at least be an official staff member, but how would that be better than going back to the factory?
Yang Dahai was now the chairman of the board. If Mother Yang went there, wouldn’t she be brown-nosed by others exaggeratedly? It was better than anything else! In contrast, of course, it was better to go to the factory.
Yang Ming returned to his room and took out his phone to charge it, but there was an unread message on it. When he opened it, it was sent by Lin Zhiyun. It was from an hour ago when Yang Ming was busy misguiding Edward and Little Dorsk into the ditch. He probably didn’t hear it.
“Yang Ming, I can’t sleep.” Lin Zhiyun only sent one message, no more. She might have been afraid that Yang Ming had already rested.
Although Yang Ming wasn’t sure if Lin Zhiyun was asleep, he still replied, “I just got home. Why can’t you fall asleep?”
After sending the text message, Yang Ming took off his coat. He tidied himself up and went to bed. The message prompt of the phone sounded again. It seemed that Lin Zhiyun wasn’t asleep, and she had been waiting for his reply.
“I’m scared. Have you gone home?” replied Lin Zhiyun.
“I just got home. I just settled the matter with Shu Ya’s endors.e.m.e.nt. Why are you scared?” asked Yang Ming.
“Does Chen Mengyan know about the things between us? I’m afraid she would scold me,” replied Lin Zhiyun.
