Chapter 53: Duel to the Death (1/2)
Xu Cheng dragged the man that beat up Old Wang to the hospital and threw the guy onto the floor of the ward, dumbfounding Old Wang.
That guy immediately kneeled on the ground and didn’t dare to get up as he begged Old Wang, “Big Brother Wang, please forgive me, I did a horrible thing.”
Old Wang was still speechless about how this guy was behaving; just what did Xu Cheng do to the guy?
Seeing the blood on the corners of his mouth and his clothes, it didn’t take a genius to figure out that Xu Cheng at least beat him up.
However, Old Wang was still quite uncomfortable seeing a thug’s attitude suddenly turn 180 degrees and for a man who beat him up to kneel before him to apologize.
“Uh…”
The North Gate disciple suddenly slapped himself in the face as well, shocking Old Wang as well.
“Brother Cheng, you didn’t have to do this…”
“He beat you up like this and you don’t think the apology was necessary? Did your ribs break for nothing? Old Wang, it was my bad that you got dragged into this and was beat up because of using my motorcycle. So, no matter where the guy was, I had to grab him and bring him to you to kneel and apologize. Oh and, I know that you are not from this city, that you are still single, and that you don’t have many friends out of work and your colleagues still have to work, so for the next few days you are here, this guy will be taking care of you,” Xu Cheng patted on Old Wang’s shoulder and said.
“Yes, yes! I will take care of Big Brother Wang for sure! Big Brother Cheng, rest assured!” The guy immediately began nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice.
“I’m telling you, you better take good care of my colleague so he can come back to work early. As for the hospitalization fees, I will leave it up to you.” Xu Cheng glanced at the guy that caused all of this.
That guy immediately nodded as hard as he could. “Big Brother Cheng, don’t worry. I got it, I got the bills!”
Tonight, Xu Cheng truly shocked everyone.
He thought that no matter how big this guy’s balls were, he probably wouldn’t cause any trouble to him again. What he did tonight was enough to shock those from North Gate and show them that he wasn’t someone they could mess with.
Xu Cheng patted Old Wang’s shoulder, smiled, and said, “Recover soon so you can come back to work.”
Old Wang nodded. “Thanks, Brother Cheng.”
Right after Xu Cheng came out of the hospital, he found a sports car parked beside his cruiser. Young Master Lin and his brother Lin Dong stood there and gave Xu Cheng a big thumbs up.
“I heard you basically blew up North Gate’s lair tonight. Now half of Shangcheng knows your name, especially the other three gates. In the past few days, you managed to provoke both North Gate and West Gate, and North Gate’s morale even fell to the lowest point in history. You are in big danger now.”
Xu Cheng didn’t really care. “Where’s the danger coming from?”
“I heard that the North Gate Gang’s leader, who went into seclusion, is going to come out and sanction you,” Young Master Lin said.
“North Gate’s gang leader?” Xu Cheng was a bit surprised.
“Yeah, he’s the founder of North Gate. Back then, when the country wasn’t as powerful and the laws and enforcement weren’t perfect, it was an era where strength and power rules. He was definitely a martial art master that had many disciples that went out to become masters themselves in North Gate. But yeah, he went into seclusion a while ago and completely uninvolved himself with the affairs of the gang. However, you saying that North Gate should disband really touched that old man’s bottom line. I think you should lay low for the next little while. I’m telling you this because I admire you. If you receive a deathmatch invitation from the underground boxing ring, don’t accept it. Remember what I’m saying.”
