“Say what?”
Li Hongji thought that his hearing was having a problem, even his footsteps abruptly stopped. He blinked his eyes as he looked at the doctor in white coat and indignantly spoke, “Are you joking with me? Tang Xiu himself made more than 20 thugs severely wounded? Are you sane? Are you talking in your dream?”
The doctor in white said with a forced smile, “President, do you think I’d dare lie to you? Even if you give me more courage, I wouldn’t dare to. I witnessed it myself, Mr. Tang’s martial arts is very powerful. He really has injured more than 20 thugs. And that gang is the one that have ganged up somebody in front of the hospital’s entrance this morning.”
Li Hongji angrily replied, “Nonsense! Who the hell can fight more than 20 people? Do you think I can believe that 2 fists are able to contend against 4?”
Long Zhengyu at the side said with a wry smile, “Uncle Li, perhaps what he said is true. As far as I know, Tang Xiu is indeed a martial artist, and even a quite powerful one at that.”
Li Hongji stared blankly for a moment. Then, he said in disbelief, “Even if he’s a martial artist and very powerful, how could he be able to hit more than 20 people? Even those retired special forces, could they be able to do it? Even if the Head of the largest Martial School in Star City, Magnificent Dragon Martial School’s Grandmaster Jiang Feng, could he even be able to do that?”
Long Zhengyu calmly said, “If Tang Xiu’s medical skill is no better than your Junior Brother’s, will you think that Tang Xiu’s medical skill level is stronger than your Junior Brother’s?”
“This…” Li Hongji was speechless.
Long Zhengyu looked at the doctor in white coat and asked, “Where’s Tang Xiu now?”
The doctor in the white coat said, “After Mr. Tang injured those people, he quickly left. I don’t know where he is now.”
Long Zhengyu nodded and then took out his phone to call Tang Xiu.
“What’s up?” Tang Xiu’s ice cold voice transmitted from the phone.
Long Zhengyu said, “Tang Xiu, I’m at Star City Chinese Medical Hospital. I heard that you have injured more than 20 youth thugs outside of the hospital’s entrance, is this real?”
“Yes!”
Long Zhengyu replied with anger, “Who the hell are they? I’ll help you solve them out.”
Tang Xiu directly refused, “I’ll solve the problem myself. Thanks for your good intention.”
“…”
The hung up tone came out from his phone as a forced smile expression was written on Long Zhengyu’s handsome face. He was perfectly aware of Tang Xiu’s personality.
At one of the upscale amusement clubhouses in Star City…
Inside the luxurious decorated KTV private room, although the gambling house was re-started, Tie Long was obviously slightly absent-minded. His hands were no longer as good as before.
“Old Tie, I think you don’t need to let your imagination run wild. Whether it was a blessing or a calamity, you can hide if it’s a disaster. But now what you’ve got to do is to prepare for it. If the ones who investigated you have a strong background, then you should immediately run. If they are weak, then play with them as you like. Panicking at the slightest moves and threats of an enemy will only make your mind chaotic. It would be troublesome for you and throw you into confusion.” The middle-aged big man pulled out a cigarette and said lightly.
The other guy also said, “Yes. If the opponent is very strong, we are also helpless even if we want to help. But if they are at the same level as us, we can team up to trample him. So you need to prepare in advance. If the enemy stays still, then stay still we will. But if the enemy moves, then move we will.”
Tie Long nodded with a thoughtful expression and said, “What you said makes sense. It looks like I asked too much. Nowadays, I’ve offended too many people, causing me to stay on guard at all times. Otherwise, I don’t know when will someone stab me behind my back.”
After having said that, Tie Long threw his cards on the table. He looked at one of the middle-aged man and said, “I’ve prepared 4 million yuan to take the parking lot project next to the Star Park Plaza. Anyone of you have the interest to take up this project with me?”
“Ring ring ring…”
Along with the fading voice of Tie Long, his mobile phone rang again.
Tie Long frowned. He grabbed the phone, and after it was connected, he asked, “What happened?”
After a moment…
Tie Long suddenly stood up from the chair with a shocked expression on his face, shouting, “What the bull you fucking told me? A person making more than 20 of you severely injured? Are you a fucking idiot or me? What? For real? I got it…”
Tie Long hung up the phone. Then, he looked at the three others with an ashen face and spoke with a sank tone, “Everyone, this time I’m afraid that I really have provoked some trouble. And this trouble is one that I really have never ever expected before.”
“What kind of trouble?”
Amongst one of them, his expression moved and immediately asked.
Tie Long said, “Do you remember what I’ve told you? Yesterday I went to a restaurant to eat. And they did not give me any tables. So I injured the restaurant’s boss and the staffs, as well as smashing the restaurant. Since I’m still angered, I sent more than 20 people to wait at the Chinese Medical Hospital’s front entrance to wait for them. As long as they came out, the people I send must fuck them up. And just now, those men I sent, all more than 20 of them, have all been seriously wounded.”
