123 Seeking Forgiveness (2/2)
”Zihao had always like these fine things. Who would drink this sour wine?” Wang Zhiyong jested but his hand was still on the wine glass.
After a couple rounds of drink, the three started coversing with one another. Wang Zhiyong was surprisingly quiet and Zhou Zihao was talking a lot more.
Jiang Chen had a feeling that Zhou Zihao was trying to befriend him. His attitude made him feel wary. Logically speaking, his artificial intelligence was almost overlapping with Zhou Family's craft. In other words, Zhou Zihao was not popular at home? So he wanted to form a relationship with me?
Jiang Chen was not repulsed by Zhou Zihao's friendly gesture. After a few glasses of wine, they started calling each other brothers.
”Brother Jiang, I'll have to offer you a glass one more time. This glass counts as me not controlling my subordinates and causing problems for you.” Zhou Zihao suddenly stood up, smilingly offered a toast and drained the glass of wine.
To drink wine like this was a waste of a luxury.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen also hurriedly stood up and smiled wryly.
”There is no need, Brother Zhou. I don't really mind and he hadn't done anything yet.”
Zhou Zihao waved his hand and then signaled the server on the side. The waiter courteously nodded and walked out in haste.
After a while, the door opened.
Jiang Chen saw a strange man came in.
The person was sporting a buzz cut. His face had a certain kind of resoluteness but also had a terrified expression on his face. Age wise, he was at least 10 years older than Zhou Zihao.
Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed slightly as he guessed the identity of this 30-year-old man.
Liu Changlong, the leader of Hongyi Gang and the man who plotted against him.
Wang Zhiyong watched while he carried his glass with a gloating expression. Zhou Zihao didn't look at Liu Changlong and only stared at Jiang Chen with the same smiling expression. Jiang Chen glanced at Liu Changlong and then questioningly looked at Zhou Zihao.
”Ahem.” Zhou Zihao lightly coughed.
There was a ”pudong” sound as Liu Changlong, a man 180 cm tall, dropped to his knees and knocked his head on the ground.
”I, Liu Changlong, was blinded and listened to wrongdoers' incitement and planned to kidnapped your parents. I hope Sir Jiang Chen to forgive me and let me go like a fart.”
Jiang Chen was stunned. He really did not expect Liu Changlong was planning to abduct his parents outside of the province. He also didn't think that before he even made a move, Zhou Zihao had already brought him here to apologize.
Wang Zhiyong looked at Liu Changlong who was kowtowing and seemed to wear an expression that this was to be expected.
Zhou Zihao still didn't spare a glance at Liu Changlong and remained his focus on Jiang Chen while smiling.
”Is Brother Jiang satisfied with this result?”
Jiang Chen's throat moved and laughed awkwardly, ”Very satisfied.”
He didn't know what to say, and though he disdained these scums of society and was enraged by the fact that Liu Changlong planned to use his parents to threaten him, he did back down.
Zhou Zihao with his squinting eyes was a ruthless character and not at all easy to deal with. In any case, he owed him a favor.
Jiang Chen thought to himself but his expression remained the same.
When Zhou Zihao saw that Jiang Chen had relented, he then waved his hand.
The beautiful waitress on the side, holding a bottle of about 1 liter of Baiju, came over and place it in front of Liu Changlong with a smile.
”You know what to do,” Zhou Zihao said casually.
A cold sweat rolled across Liu Changlong's forehead but when he thought of Zhou Zihao's intention, he gritted his teeth, opened the lid with his teeth and began drinking.
That was 1 litter of Baijiu. The alcohol concentration would certainly not be low.
Jiang Chen who was watching on the side was secretly scared.
Zhou Zihao was watching on coldly while Wang Zhiyong was still showing an interested expression.
As soon as Liu Chonglong had finished the bottle, he immediately fell unconscious on the ground. The waiter nearby looked at Zhou Zihao and after seeing him nod, he carried the unconscious Liu Changlong outside.
Liu Changlong was going straight to the hospital; he was definitely biting the bullet on this one.
Jiang Chen was secretly speechless but did not have an ounce of sympathy, though he was more and more scared of Zhou Zihao's ruthlessness.
This man is ruthless!
”Zihao, you should pay extra care to those people under you. Are you not afraid of dirtying your own hands?” Wang Zhiyong said and chuckled.
”Ahem, even a rat has a rat's value,” Zhou Zihao said then turned to look at Jiang Chen, ”I hope you won't mind what happened today. Brother Jiang, I truly value our friendship. If this rat dares to dirty your shoes again, I'd throw him into the Huangpu River.”
”No need for that, Brother Zhou is really a great friend. It's my honor to become your friend,” Jiang Chen said.
Thankfully, they were not enemies.
”There is no need to go back today. Why don't stay for the night? Zihao prepared you another fun show. Hehe.” Wang Zhiyong burst into laughter.
”Ahem, Brother Yong, spoiler is not good.” Zhou Zihao lightly coughed.
”What type of show?” Jiang Chen asked casually.
”Trust me, you will love it.” Zhou Zihao smiled mysteriously after continuing, ”Would Brother Jiang give me this chance?”
It would be impolite to refuse.
Jiang Chen only debated for a second before quickly replying, ”Then, I'll listen to the host.”
There was nothing to it but say yes.
After dinner, it was still the same smiling waitress. Jiang Chen was led into a quiet room on the third floor under her guidance.
”The noise insulation here is excellent. Enjoy yourself.” The staff smiled ambiguously and backed out of the room.
Jiang Chen touched his nose shyly, stood at the entrance for a while before finally going into the room.
[Looks like I am not going home tonight.]
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen pushed the exquisitely decorated door open, but after entering the room, he was surprised to see someone he didn't expect.
”It's you?”
Jiang Chen's expression could not be more strange.
