Chapter 93 - Suplex! (1/2)
Seeing the shop slip through his fingers made Wang Ming feel perplexed. He couldn't even describe to another person how he felt now. He had never thought that Weng Ping would go back on his words like that. Did Weng Ping blame Wang Ming for what had happened to Weng Ting? Or has Weng Ping always been an evil man? Wang Ming didn't know anymore, but one thing for sure is that he's going to get revenge someway.
Though luckily since he had won so much money, he would have no problems buying another shop. The Feng Zhong market is enormous even though Weng Ping's shop has a suitable location, there are other locations which are even better. The only reason that Wang Ming wanted to buy Weng Ping's shop in the first place was to help him. He wanted to do him a favor, but now he'd started his road on the path of demise.
Wang Ming then gave Peng Tong a call and told him his meeting had been cut short because of unforeseeable circ.u.mstances. So he could meet with them now.
”Ok, I'll be there as soon as I can. Should I bring something to the meeting?”
”Just bring your A game, big brother. It's the boss you're meeting, not a girl, so just dress in whatever you want as long as it is appropriate. We're not meeting in a restaurant, but just a food stall on the side of the road. As for a gift, it's up to you.”
Food stall? Were they meeting really meeting Peng Tong's boss? Why would the big boss of Wang Gang eat at a food stall? But also importantly why did he want to meet him? Even though Wang Ming has an honorary position in Wang Gang, he didn't want to become even more associated with Wang Gang as it had already f.u.c.k.e.d up his relationship with Qiao Meng. If he really joined Wang Gang, she would probably be the first person trying to catch him. He's after all only a businessperson, not a gangster.
Though since the Wang Gang had helped him so many times, he would still need to come with a gift. But what could he bring? Wang Ming collected nothing he had nothing to give. He couldn't really gift an underworld boss food. But then he thought about the knifes he had bought, a while ago, he had never taken them out from the bag he had put them in before the warehouse incident happened.
Even though he had bought them for only a few hundred yuan, the knives looked like they were worth at least a few thousand yuan. Wang Ming just wanted to give a gift as a greeting and thank you to the Wang Gang's boss and not to flatter him.
Going back to the restaurant to grab the knives, Wang Ming saw that the restaurant doors were closed. Had they sold out in only one hour? But when Wang Ming looked inside the restaurant he saw a dozen of customers kneeling down on the ground while Uncle Hou, Fu Jinhai and Gao Xingjuan, Louzheng's nurse, were standing back to the kitchen wall except for Louzheng who was sitting in his wheelchair instead.
Wang Ming tried to scout out how many perpetrators it was, but he could only look through the door as they had pulled down the blinds. How had none of the customers outside noticed all this happening? Wang Ming thought, but he couldn't care too much about it as he needed to rescue them.
Luckily he got eye contact with Louzheng who smiled seeing that Wang Ming was there but stopped when he saw Wang Ming pointing at the robbers with his finger. Wang Ming tried to ask Louzheng how many robbers there were by mouthing each word, but Louzheng just couldn't understand. But after more pointing and mouthing he finally understood, but he couldn't show Wang Ming as his hands still barely function.
So he tried to mouth it back to Wang Ming, but this time it was Wang Ming's turn to not understand a thing, Louzheng's face looked like a monkey trying to speak human. Seeing that it didn't work, Louzheng blinked for each robber. After blinking four times, he hoped that Wang Ming understood.
Seeing that Wang Ming took up four fingers, Louzheng nodded and let out a sigh which attracted the attention of the robbers.
”Why are you so noisy? Just shut the f.u.c.k up you handicapped motherf.u.c.ker. Now where does Wang Ming keep all his valuables? If you answer honestly, I'll let you all go, if you don't then each 5 minutes I'm going to kill one person starting with the handicapped motherf.u.c.ker!”
The robber roared for everyone to hear, which made the hostages feel anxious. They all tried to convince Louzheng and the others to give up Wang Ming's valuables, but none of them knew where Wang Ming stored his things.
”We don't know!”
They all shouted, but the robber clearly didn't believe them as he snorted and just pointed at the clock.
Even though Wang Ming was outside the door, he could clearly hear everything that the robber said he only had 5 minutes before they would kill Louzheng. Since he knew now that there were only four robbers, he felt confident dealing with them all, as there were only two monitoring the hostages while the other two were in the back trying to find his valuables.
Though Wang Ming didn't know why they would rob his restaurant, he had no valuables at all. Had they heard about his win at the jade store so they wanted to come and rob him? But all the money is in his bank account, no one keeps so much cash nowadays. If they wanted to blackmail him for money, then they would have just gotten Louzheng to call him and get him to transfer the money, but they didn't.
Unlocking then opening the door, Wang Ming tried to sneak in as stealthily as possible but since this is a restaurant door, it makes noise each time someone opens it to alert the owner of a new customer. But Louzheng, who had monitored Wang Ming, saw that the door was just about to make sounds.
Screamed as loud as he could to bring all attention to him. Which clearly worked as both of the men who had been monitoring the hostages, looked at Louzheng to see what had happened, the one that had threatened Louzheng earlier who clearly wasn't happy with Louzheng being so noisy walked up to him with an angry face.
