Chapter 90 - Something Would Happen to Ye Xinyi?
Chapter 90 Something Would Happen to Ye Xinyi?
“Just as I thought, it’s impossible for them to reconcile.” Master Hou hung up the phone. He stopped persuading her since she sounded extremely determined on the phone.
Mu Tingchuan said with mixed feelings, “The Peony Fairy hates men and now she dares to disobey you over a man. Master Hou, what will you do with this?”
Master Hou smiled gently, “I have done what I promised Xiao Bing since I spoke to her. The rest is not my business.”
“Master Hou, you mean that you are going to let them solve the problem themselves?” asked Mu Tingchuan.
“What else can I do?”
Mu Tingchuan asked, “Master Hou, what do you think will happen to Xiao Bing? Will he end up dead or alive?”
Master gently sighed with pity, “It depends on the fairy’s mood. Do you think he would still be alive if she had wanted him dead?”
Though Zhu Mingyu was already dead, Master still felt confident in his Four Heaven Kings. Master Hou knew too well about what ‘Heaven King’ meant under his leadership. It meant that these four killed countless numbers of Master Hou’s enemies, among which there were Xiao Bing’s equals.
If it were not for that Master Hou felt full of confidence about the Peony Fairy, he wouldn’t do anything and pretend to be magnanimous. Since the fairy would win one way or another, why wouldn’t he do the Ye Family a favor.. To Master Hou, Xiao Bing had already been sentenced to death.
After walking out of Master Hou’s mansion, Xiao Bing received the news that the expansion had been completed. He instantly asked the driver to take him to the noodle house. He thanked the driver after he got out of the car. Then Xiao Bing asked him to drive back.
The noodle house was overwhelmed with laughter. It seemed that everyone was at ease since their work was done. Dumbass could be heard shouting inside, “I will ask Brother Bing to hold a feast to celebrate and no one can leave without getting drunk.”
Grinning, Xiao Bing walked in and looked around. He found that the expansion had been completed perfectly as he had expected and it seemed that the noodle house could reopen for business in two days. The workers intended to say something when they saw Xiao Bing arrive. However, before they could speak, Xiao Bing waved his hands and said, “Come. You are invited to an Emperor Barbecue. Eat whatever you want!”
All of these sturdy men shouted out in joy. Even Dumbass grinned broadly.
Xiao Bing looked at Dumbass and said,” Dumbass, stay here and watch over the noodle house. You won’t be needed during the feast.
Dumbass shook his head like a rattle, “No. I want to eat, drink and chat with you!”
“That’s what whores do!”
“Yes, I’m a whore. I’m a whore.”
Then the workers laughed out loud again.
Emperor Barbecue had chain stores across the country. There were only two in the Black Province: one was in Jiang City and one was in Ha City. Although barbecue had not been created for the upper-class, it was the best for these sturdy men who liked drinking and eating meat.
They gathered around the table in a private room. Some stripped themselves down to their waist; some toasted to others with a big cup while shouting. They all seemed very excited.
Though Dumbass was the one who was enlivening the atmosphere, he didn’t drink much. When asked why by Xiao Bing his only answer had been, “I’m afraid that that woman will come for you when you are drunk.”
Xiao Bing found that though Dumbass was stupid, sometimes he could be very prudent and smart, which made Xiao Bing know him better.
When he came to think of it, he believed Dumbass was not only a stupid boy since he was extremely talented in martial arts. Dumbass just mentioned that he had already achieved the primary stage of Concealing Strength, which meant that he made a qualitative leap over just a couple of days. Even though Xiao Bing’s teaching ability was unparalleled, Dumbass could not have made such progress if he was just a silly boy. Usually, men like him were stupid about trivia but visionaries on important matters.
They were all contentedly drunk when they walked out of the store, except for Dumbass, who hadn’t been drinking too much, and Xiao Bing, who could handle liquor very well. They all said goodbye to Xiao Bing before they left. Xiao Bing even reminded the foreman to come to the noodle house tomorrow to get the rest of the money.historical
While Xiao Bing and Dumbass had intended to stop a taxi, they suddenly saw a man getting out of a limousine. There were two men in black suits behind him that appeared to be holding a seemingly unconscious beauty and they all headed toward the hotel.
Dumbass asked when he saw Xiao Bing frowning, “Brother Bing, you know her?”
“She looked like Yezi’s sister from the back.”
“My sister-in-law is about to check in on you?”
“Do you think she looked willing?” Xiao Bing’s eyes were filled with apathy. He said, “I suppose she’s drunk. Come, let’s have a look.”
After all, Ye Xinyi was Yezi’s sister and she had no conflict with Xiao Bing. She had left Xiao Bing with a bad first impression. But, she had already apologized to him. Should Xiao Bing be broad-hearted since this rich girl had already taken the first step?
Hence, Xiao Bing decided to check on her regardless of the consequences.
Xiao Bing ran into the lobby with Dumbass. Xiao Bing walked up to the counter and rested his arms on it. Then he made eyes at the receptionist with a narcissistic expression as he spoke in an attractive tone, “Hottie, like what you see? Do you mind telling me which room has been booked by the several men who just walked in.”
The beautiful girl put on her standard smile, “You are a handsome Mister.”
“And?”
“I do mind!”
Xiao Bing slapped the counter, which startled the beautiful girl. Then she saw Xiao Bing leaning his body on the counter. The carefree smile on his face was replaced by the holy light of justice. “Beautiful girl, the men that just walked in are suspected of drugging and raping the girl they were carrying. Frankly speaking, I’m the undercover cop for this case. I hope you can help me with my work.”
The beautiful girl was still smiling politely, “I’m sorry sir. May I see your certification?”
Xiao Bing seemed worried, “My girl, you look so pretty and your smile is like an angel’s. How come you can’t be flexible for a moment. I came in a hurry and forgot to bring my ID. But, didn’t you see that the woman being carried into the room was unconscious? Terrible things will happen if I stay here any longer.”
The pretty girl seemed to be hesitating.
Xiao Bing added, “Think about your fellow woman. What if she gets violated because of your stubbornness? Will you still be able to live with your conscience then?”
The beautiful girl nodded, “You’ve made your point.”
Xiao Bing felt relief, “That’s more like it.”
“But, you still need to show me your certification. There are rules for this hotel.”
“..”
Xiao Bing almost jumped to his feet. This girl was so unexpectedly obstinate towards him. But, not giving the room number had to do with privacy. The hotel made a rule about it and there was little Xiao Bing could do.
Time was ticking and Xiao Bing was not sure if those men intended to do her harm, but the possibility existed. Ye Xinyi would soon be his sister-in-law. It was not wise for him to do nothing after watching her being carried unconscious into a hotel.
Xiao Bing contemplated for a while and thought that maybe he should call Yezi or Ye Bancheng. “But, what if I’m wrong? Usually, girls don’t want things like this to be known by others. We might become enemies again. It seemed that good intentions weren’t always rewarded with kindness.
Xiao Bing once served in the Dragon Teeth and because of its specialty Xiao Bing still had some privilege even though he had retired. This sort of thing actually was a piece of cake for Xiao Bing. However, he didn’t want to expose his identity. The less people knew about him, the better. That was why Xiao Bing was not willing to show his last cards. Besides, even if he showed them to ordinary people, they would not understand.
While hesitating, Xiao Bing thought of Lil Bei and called him instantly. Xiao Bing made it brief after the phone was put through, “Lil Bei, where are you now?”
“I’m already home, Brother Bing. The landlords near your apartment had apartments for rent and I chose one of them, which will make it convenient for us to look after each other.”
“That’s good. I have something here in the Beam Hotel I need you to deal with. I need you to find out the number of the room a man booked. I need you to do it now and try to make the police call the hotel and remember, be discrete.”
“No problem and I probably won’t need the police. I can just call the owner of the hotel. Brother Bing, please wait a moment.”
Since Dragon teeth had a network across the country and it was involved in all kinds of fields, which included the police, Lil Bei could easily do what he was asked. As a member of the elite group of the Dragon Teeth, it was simple for Lil Bei to learn the number. As a matter of fact, Xiao Bing also could use the resources. He just did not want too many people to know that he was here and he specifically reminded Lil Bei of that.
In less than five minutes the recipient received a call from the owner of the hotel. He sounded very serious, “I’m Cheng Qian, is there a Mister standing in front of you?”
The girl hadn’t expected the boss to call her himself. She said yes with profound respect and humility.
“He is a friend of the president of the chamber commerce of the Black Province..Anyway, do what he asks of you. Don’t offend him and send him my regards.”
After hanging up, the recipient changed the way she had been looking at him. It now contained admiration and awe. She checked the room number of the men that had just booked in a hurry and told Xiao Bing, “I’m so sorry for what happened before. My boss asked me to apologize. I just checked and the room is 205 on the second floor.”
“It’s okay. You are a very dutiful recipient.. I hope you can find happiness in your work!” Then Xiao Bing walked towards the stairs with Dumbass following behind.
