Chapter 40: Chapter 28.3

Dead pig not afraid of scalding water. (Part Three)@@novelbin@@

Sure enough, the hotpot restaurant was indeed very popular. It wasn’t even peak dinner time yet, and there was already a queue.

Bai Juanqiu took a number, then borrowed a power bank from the cashier to charge Ren Xingliu’s phone. After giving some thought, he turned the phone on in passing.

Sure enough, shortly after coming back to life, Ding Shi’s call appeared once more. It seemed it was really an emergency.

Bai Juanqiu accepted the call.

“Iron pallet, you have finally turned your phone back on!” Ding Shi said while panting, “Where are you right now? I’m almost at Sea Dream.”

Bai Juanqiu frowned. “What happened?”

Ding Shi was taken aback before recognizing the voice. “Why is it you on the phone? Where is A-Xing?”

Bai Juanqiu replied, “He went to park.”

“Oh no!” Ding Shi panicked instantly. “I just received messages that Song Chengkai had summoned his gang to Sea Dream to hinder Xing-bao. They all drove by themselves, so they must be heading to the parking lot first. I hope Xing-bao won’t run into them!”

“What!” Bai Juanqiu’s pupils dilated slightly. He took a turn and ran straight into the elevator. “I’m heading over there now.”

Ding Shi gasped, “I see them—”

However, the call dropped when the elevator closed. Bai Juanqiu didn’t bother to call back. His eyes were fixed as the decreasing number on the elevator’s digital screen while his heart pounded wildly.

At the same time, a wave of regret surged inside.

How could he be so careless!

They knew clearly that Song Chengkai had an affair with Ren Xingliu, and also knew that the other party had followed them, but they didn’t raise enough vigilance, thinking that the other party just couldn’t get over it for the moment.

He was clearly aware that Song Chengkai had a history with Ren Xingliu and knew that the other party had followed them here. But this didn’t raise any alarm because he just took it as the other party holding on to the childish grudge.

He was too naive!

He had even been in so many fights back in school. Why did he forget that these people’s favorite thing to do was to call their friends to use many to bully the few.

Various thoughts flashed through his brain. With a ding

, the elevator door reached the first basement level.

Bai Juanqiu rushed out and was about to call someone when he heard the sound of engines and noisy voices not far away, as well as the faint voice of Ding Shi.

Bai Juanqiu shot out arrow steps. As he was about to call out Ren Xingliu’s name, he heard the sound of engines and commotion not far away. Between that, he could faintly pick out Ding Shi’s voice.

Feeling a pang in his heart, he immediately ran towards the source of the sound without saying a word.

Turning a corner, he indeed saw Ding Shi’s figure.

Ding Shi stood next to the car. Opposite him, several other cars had not yet turned off, and several young people with flamboyant postures got out of the car cursing.

Ding Shi was standing next to a car, and opposite him, there were several cars with their engines still running. Several young men exited out of their cars with arrogant posture while cursing loudly.

Among them, the one with green-dyed hair sneered at Ding Shi and said, “Surname Ding, so you’re here as well.”

Neither of them was giving the other an inch, proficiently trash talked at each other, not paying notice to the figure walking over from the side.

“Where is Ren Xingliu?” A chilling voice sounded.

Lu Mao was trying to overpower Ding Shi with his momentum, when suddenly a shadow suddenly enveloped him. He looked up and met a pair of eyes as sharp as ice blades.

The green hair was trying to intimate Ding Shi with his imposing demeanor when suddenly, a shadow came over him. He looked up and met with a pair of sharp eyes that were as deadly as ice shards.

Bai Juanqiu stared grimly at the green hair with a face like frost.

He was a very tall man, and with his chin slightly raised, he gave off a look of disdain from above.

The green hair’s arrogant aura dwarfed suddenly. Now appearing weaker, he countered, “Who are you?”

Bai Juanqiu didn’t answer him, only repeating his question again, “Where is Ren Xingliu?”

His sense of oppression was so powerful that the green hair had this fear that if he couldn’t answer the question, he would be beaten to the ground.

At this moment, Ding Shi also remembered the important priority. “Yeah, hurry up and spit it out. Where is A-Xing?”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Mao calmed down and suddenly became furious, saying, “How do I know? We just arrived and I want to ask you!”

As soon as he interrupted, the green hair calmed down and instantly became furious, rebuking, “How the heck should I know? We just got here and were about to ask you!”

Ding Shi: “…”

Bai Juanqiu slowly turned his head and glanced at Ding Shi.

Ding Shi had no ounce of courage to meet the other’s eyes. After a moment of silence, he pretended to be calm and said, “Oh, so you haven’t run into him yet. Okay then.”

When it came to facing Ding Shi, the green hair’s temper rose again. “It’s just a matter of time. We’ll settle the score today.”

“Enough with your nonsense.” Bai Juanqiu impatiently cut in, “Where is the Song guy?”

Song Chengkai followed them the whole way, so he must have already found Ren Xingliu and might have already taken action himself.

These people were summoned by Song Chengkai. Even if they just got here, as long as they give Song Chengkai a call, they would instantly get the location.

At those words, the green hair gave him a wary look, “What do you plan to do?”

“Didn’t you say the score will be settled today?” Bai Juanqiu narrowed his eyes. “Get that Song person to come and settle the account face to face.”

The provocative meaning of these words was too obvious. Although Lu Mao was a little frightened, he couldn’t help but get a little angry and said angrily: “It’s just you?”

The provocation was practically leaking from those words. Although the green hair was afraid for his life, it was evitable for him to get angry. He snapped, “What are you going to do if I don’t?”

The people who came with him also started clamoring.

“Who do you think you are?”

“You think we won’t beat you here and then?”

When Ding Shi saw this, he immediately cursed. The person he called hadn’t arrived yet, so they would take action now. They didn’t have the upper hand, and were about to think of ways to delay it.

Against this situation, Ding Shi instantly cussed. His backup wasn’t here yet. If they started fighting now, they would be at a disadvantage. He must find a way to buy time.

Bai Juanqiu directly grabbed the green hair’s collar and asked, “That’s a lot of nonsense. Well, are you going to call him or not?”

Ding Shi: “!!”

No way, why was Bai Juanqiu so quick to move hands?

Also, was he seeing things? The green hair guy wasn’t a small dude, how come he was lifted up so easily?

The green hair didn’t expect this person to suddenly turn physical, even less so on being so easily lifted off the ground, high enough that his heels weren’t touching the ground.

This was even more terrifying than being beaten to the ground directly.

“What the fuck?!” The green hair was both panicking and blushing with shame. He instantly threw a punch. “Hand off!”

However, his fist was caught immediately. Then the other guy twisted his wrist, and he let out a scream of agony, “Ahhh—”

Others rushed forward at once.

“Let go of him!”

“You want to die that much?”

Seeing that the scene was about to break out, Ding Shi’s vision went dark. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a figure walking out of the corner. His face suddenly lit up with joy and he shouted quickly: “A Xing, I saw A Xing.” — —”

Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Ding Shi felt like his vision went dark. At that moment, he caught a glimpse of a figure emerging out of the corner. He was instantly filled with joy as he shouted while smiling, “A-Xing is here, A-Xing—”

The group of people brought by the green hair also looked over and shouted, “It’s Kai-ge!”

“Kai-ge is here—”

Only then did Bai Juanqiu toss the green hair aside. He nervously turned to look, and then: “…?”

Not only him, but also Ding Shi, the green hair, and his people. All of them collectively fell silent after seeing the scene around the corner.

At the same time, countless question marks popped out of their heads.

The people who appeared from there were indeed Ren Xingliu and Song Chengkai, but why did they look so harmonious?

They watched as the two walked side by side. Song Chengkai was looking down at his phone while typing.

From time to time, Ren Xingliu turned his head and pointed right at Song Chengkai’s phone, saying, “You typed this word wrong.”

“Oh, yes.” Song Chengkai nodded the next second. “I’ll correct it.”

Only when they heard shouting did they look up. When they saw the scene in front of them, they showed puzzled looks.

Baffled, Ren Xingliu asked Ding Shi, “Why are you here?”

Song Chengkai also looked at the other group. He furrowed his brow and questioned, “Why are you guys here?”

Ding Shi, the green hair, and others looked at each other, back and forth, and they saw the confusion on others’ faces.

No way, they should be the one asking those questions?

In the end, Bai Juanqiu spoke first.

Bai Juanqiu’s expression had already softened a bit, but now it darkened again. He stared at the harmonious two people for a while, and finally turned to Ren Xingliu: “What are you doing?”

Bai Juanqiu composed himself at the sight of Ren Xingliu, but it turned grim once more. He stared at the two, who were acting very friendly towards each other, then turned to Ren Xingliu, asking, “What are you two doing?”

“Oh.” Ren Xingliu replied with ease, “Xiao Song said he got a scar on his hand from the car accident, which is an eyesore. So, I taught him a way to get rid of the scar.”

Bai Juanqiu: “…”

Ding Shi: “……”

Green hair and others: “………”

The green hair looked at Ren Xingliu and then at Song Chengkai. He was only able to hold his tongue for a bit before asking in confusion, “Kai-ge, didn’t you say before that having a scar is manly?”

Song Chengkai: “!!!”

His expression turned stern as he said righteously, “That was before, but we’re in a different era now. We need to change our mindset and be a fine young man!”
