Chapter 162: Going Along With The Plan
“According to his words, he is the Vice President of Xiongfeng Group.” The waitress answered.
“Vice president? Then, isn’t he in the workforce?” Brother Bao had a glimpse of a malicious smile at the corner of his mouth.
Yang Ming opened the door of the room as he prepared to leave. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure quickly pa.s.s by him. Seemingly, this fellow didn’t notice Yang Ming, but Yang Ming had seen him clearly.
Yang Ming hastily chased after him. He tapped on the back of the person. “Brother Bao!”
Even though Brother Bao fought ferociously with the gangster boss of Shuanghai, his fame in the underworld had risen. After some time, he had changed for the better. In this instant, Brother Bao’s fame in Song Jiang City was on the crest of a wave. Brother Bao was Bao Sanli, the one who shared the same cell with Yang Ming in the detention center.
As a result, there wasn’t anyone who dared to tap on his shoulder. Brother Bao was about to go into a rage after someone tapped him. However, when he turned around and saw the person clearly, he immediately expressed a joyful expression. “Brother Yang, why are you here?”
“Such a coincidence, Brother Bao. Why are you here?” Yang Ming was particularly enthusiastic because he met someone familiar. They had gone through weal and through woe.
“I don’t have a proper job. After I was released, I came here to look after this place. I heard from the waitress that there was a client making trouble. I’m going to investigate!” said Brother Bao.
“Then, you should go ahead. I don’t want to bother you any further. I will catch up with you on another day.” Yang Ming didn’t want to delay him any further since Bao Sanli had some matter to deal with.
“Don’t sweat it. You should come with me. There’s nothing for you to be wary of with that physique of yours!” Brother Bao put his hand on Yang Ming’s shoulder and dragged him along.
“Alright, Brother Bao, I will follow your lead. You should let go of your hand. If the others didn’t know, they would think we are gay. That is disgusting!” Yang Ming quickly pushed away Bao Sanli’s hand.
“Hehe, who dares to say so?” Even though Bao Sanli said this, he removed his hand. He was still wary of Yang Ming. This little brat wouldn’t hold back when it came to a fight.
“Aren’t you doing quite well?” Yang Ming reached his hand to Bao Sanli’s necktie. “Isn’t this from Goldlion Holdings? How did you get your hands on this little fellow?”
“Hehe, didn’t I learn it from Brother Yang? You can only earn a spot in the underworld by being ruthless. When I think about the past, I find it amusing. I got into detention hall merely by beating up a few people. For now, nothing will happen to me.” Bao Sanli exclaimed, “The boss here is quite decent. I stood up for him. As long as I don’t beat someone to death, he will help me resolve the issue normally. Let me say this, Brother Yang. If you were to be part of our world, you would definitely be better than me.”
“Me? Hehe, I think I should focus on my university studies.” Yang Ming shook his head as he laughed. If he were to take part in the underworld, he would have done so earlier. There was no need to stay in school.
As both of them chit-chatted with one another, they reached the place of the incident. At this time, Guo Jianchao was moving his hand up the skirt of the woman named Xiaojiao.
“Yi? Why is it him?” Yang Ming saw Guo Jianchao and was surprised. His only thought was that this fellow’s taste was too poor. Besides having a good figure, there was nothing praiseworthy about this woman. Her face looked like a slipper and made Yang Ming sweat.
“Why? Do you know him?” Bao Sanli stopped and whispered. If that person was Yang Ming’s friend, then Bao Sanli had to reserve some respect for him. Never mind that Yang Ming was the person Bao Sanli most respected, a confrontation with Yang Ming was something Bao Sanli couldn’t even handle! Even though it wasn’t that scary for a gang fight, if Yang Ming backstabbed him, he wouldn’t be able to endure it. Of course, a confrontation with Yang Ming never came across Bao Sanli’s mind.
The brotherhood of detention hall was merely the “Three Big Irons” [1] of society.
“Yup, I just ate with this dumba**.” Yang Ming had a sarcastic tone with him.
Bao Sanli sensed something out of it. With this tone, he deduced that Brother Yang had a grudge against this little brat, so he spoke, “Brother Yang, you know this person. What should we do?”
“What do I say? What did you plan to do beforehand?” Yang Ming asked in return.
“I will kick his a**, drag him to the road and toss him there,” replied Bao Sanli.
“Uhm… Kicking his a**… Isn’t that too lenient for him?” Yang Ming uttered to himself.
Bao Sanli heard it. It wasn’t a typical grudge. That should be easy. Who didn’t know how to exert brute force? So he said, “It won’t be an issue even if I break his leg as long as Brother Yang can relieve your anger.”
“Breaking his leg… no!” Yang Ming shook his head. He wasn’t the rash Yang Ming like before. Sometimes, beating the h.e.l.l out of his opponent wasn’t the best solution. I need to come up with something that punishes him while gaining benefits for me.
“Did Brother Yang feel it was too ruthless?” Bao Sanli thought Yang Ming regarded breaking his leg was too ruthless.
“Not ruthless. But, breaking his leg doesn’t offer any practical benefits for me.” With these words in mind, Yang Ming suddenly thought of the conversation he ‘saw’ from President Hua. Get a hold of other’s weakness, and you don’t need to be wary of their disobedience! A light bulb lit up in Yang Ming’s mind, “Brother Bao, follow my instructions later…”
“It’s not a big deal. You should look forward to it and depend on your brother!” Bao Sanli hit his chest and a.s.sured him, “Brother Yang, your method is quite ruthless! This little brat is having bad luck tonight!”
“Knuckles are not the only way to resolve an issue. Sometimes, the brain is more important.” Yang Ming felt he had thought through his problem in a holistic manner and said it in a delighted manner.
“Brother Yang, that’s true. If you don’t come and join us in the underworld, it would be such a waste.” Bao Sanli nodded his head.
…Yang Ming sweated a little, Why are you always trying to drag me into it?
Right now, Bao Sanli swaggered in while he spoke loudly, “What happened? Who’s making a fuss?”
“Brother Bao! Save me!” Xiaojiao asked for help loudly as she heard Brother Bao’s voice. It sounded like she was meeting her savior.
“Erm? Is It Xiaojiao?” Bao Sanli hastily walked over. He held onto Guo Jianchao’s throat as he shouted, “You motherf*****, how dare you dally with my girl? You don’t want to be alive anymore?” As he spoke, he signaled Xiaojiao with a wink.
The waitresses here were quite smart. Experience from serving their customers every day gives them a better ability to grasp the situation. At this moment, Xiaojiao saw Bao Sanli’s wink, and she immediately understood the situation. Brother Bao was getting a reason for his behavior to protect her!
In fact, Xiaojiao might have misunderstood the situation. Bao Sanli didn’t need a reason to beat up someone!
“Who… who are you?” Guo Jianchao noticed a person with a strict face who didn’t look like a good guy appear in front of him. He was half sober by that time.
“Who am I? I am the security captain here. She is my girlfriend. I heard you were forcefully taking her.” Bao Sanli glared at Guo Jianchao as he asked.
“I…” Guo Jianchao certainly understood the situation. The so-called security captain must be the gangster boss of this place. Or else, how would a security guard not wear a uniform? The waitress, Xiaojiao, was actually his girl? It shouldn’t be such a coincidence, right? How could my luck be worse than this?
Even though Guo Jianchao had status in society, it was limited to proper business. Those who were in the underworld wouldn’t care much about him. If he was the chairman of the board, probably he might be given some leeway. Since he was just a working manager, the others wouldn’t give a d.a.m.n about him! Hence, Guo Jianchao was very fearful of gangsters from the underworld!
He wasn’t afraid of Yang Ming was because he never regarded Yang Ming as a gangster. The reason was the difference in the quality of gangster and a small punk.
He only thought Yang Ming was a small punk from the street with nothing to be afraid of. But, it was different with gangsters. Besides their organization and discipline, they were ruthless.
Hence, Guo Jianchao understood the situation and quickly apologized, “I am sorry, I am sorry. I made a mistake… brother. If there isn’t anything else, I will leave…”
“Leave?” Bao Sanli held Guo Jianchao’s head and gave him two big slaps. “You touched my girl, and you expect to go away like this? Do you think I don’t exist?”
“I thought she was just a typical waitress…” Guo Jianchao got smacked out of his consciousness, yet he didn’t dare to resist.
“Typical waitress? Even a typical waitress was a no. Our Nightless Club has a rule – a client can’t force a waitress for service!” Bao Sanli shouted, “Don’t tell me that you didn’t know!”
“I…” Guo Jianchao didn’t know what to do. He never imagined that his momentary impulse would lead to such a huge consequence. But right now, the other wouldn’t let him go so easily. He could only bear with his mistake. Hence, he said in a downcast manner, “I apologize. Brother, it is my mistake! What do you say? How about I compensate you with money?”
“Money? Are you a dumbf*ck? What do I need the money for?” Bao Sanli glared and delivered a punch to Guo Jianchao’s stomach. “Do you think my girl is here for sale? Do you think you can touch her if you pay? If I screw your wife and pay you money, are you willing to accept it?”
