C64 (1/2)

In the pitch darkness of the punishment room, the sound of whips could be heard from time to time.

Mu Leng Feng's upper body was bare, bruised and scarred. Without a word, he put on his shirt, walked up to the man in the middle, and stood there without moving.

Zhuo Er squinted his eyes and did not say anything.

”Nope.”

Zhuo Er held his hands behind him, and slowly clenched them into fists.

Just then, someone knocked on the door and entered, ”Boss, Xi Shang Yun is here.”

Zhuo Er was not surprised, he turned and looked at Mu Leng Feng, ”You and him are relatives, do you need to avoid him?” At the same time as he asked this question, his pitch-black eyes were fixated on Mu Chen. The corner of his mouth contained a faint smile, but his gaze did not contain the slightest bit of warmth.

”No need.” While Mu Leng Feng was speaking, he had already left.

In the bright living room, Xi Shang Yun sat on a chair with his legs crossed. Although he was young, his imposing manner was not inferior to anyone facing him.

Zhuo Er looked at him, wearing a grey robe and loose black pants, his expression at ease. Mu Leng Feng stood behind him and looked at Xi Shang Yun coldly. His brows did not loosen even a little, as though he could never guess what was thinking.

”Young Master Chai, did you come here today to look for someone again?” Zhuo Er teased.

Xi Shang Yun glanced at him, and raised the corner of his mouth in ridicule, ”Zhuo Er, you are opening the door to do business, do you need to be afraid of customers knocking?”

”Business, of course! It has always been the purpose of our 'Flame Gate' to help our guests resolve their difficulties. However, the Flame Gate also has its own rules. As for the privacy of the guests, we will not leak it out. So, no matter what Young Master Chai wants to ask, it's best not to say it out loud, in case you hurt the relationship between our two families. No matter what, I have to give Master Huang some face. ”

Zhuo Er naturally knew the purpose of Xi Shang Yun's visit today, and directly expressed his attitude, cutting off his thoughts.

Xi Shang Yun pursed his lips and laughed coldly: ”Do you believe that I won't take down your Flame Gate today?!”

Zhuo Er rested his chin on his hand in boredom, ”Young Master Chai, don't be so angry, do you think our Flame Gate is a vegetarian? So you were able to get torn apart by someone just because you said so? ”

Xi Shang Yun glanced at Zhuo Er, and then closed his eyes, ”I heard that you want to end those bribes that cannot be seen in public, and bring the Flame Artillery Group below the stage into the normal course of business. However, some of the older people in the group seem to be unwilling and are threatening you with the withdrawal of their capital. ”

Zhuo Er's expression changed slightly. At this time, Mu Leng Feng spoke out from behind him, ”Young Master Chai, if you have something to say, just say it.”

Xi Shang Yun looked at him. Amongst all the greedy relatives of Liang Man Shu's mother, only Mu Leng Feng suited him well. But Xi Shang Yun indeed only found out about the matter regarding him staying in the Flame Gate recently.

Without hurry or delay, he said, ”Hand over that person and let me buy into the stock as to how much money you need.”

Zhuo Er's expression was no longer indifferent. He only stared at him, the color in his eyes constantly changing.

Suddenly, he stood up and pinched the space between his brows, frowning, ”Leng Feng, help me entertain Young Master Chai, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable, I want to go back to my room to rest.”

As he said that, he nodded to the young man in front of him, ”Young Master Chai, I'm sorry, I'll be losing first.”

The corner of Xi Shang Yun's lips curled up, revealing a assured smile, ”Go ahead.”

After he left, Mu Leng Feng slowly sat down, raised his head and looked at Xi Shang Yun, and said: ”Just to uncover this person, you have spent a lot of effort.”

Xi Shang Yun shrugged his shoulders, ”If you dare to touch my woman, even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find this person!”

Mu Leng Feng was silent for a few seconds, before he said, ”You've really decided to invest in the Flame Volcano? Will Cousin agree? ”

Xi Shang Yun laughed in an unconcerned manner, ”No matter what I do, it has nothing to do with him. I'm not interested in the money he has. ”
