Chapter 352

Hongguo Li held the cricket up to show Wen Han,

Wen Han took the cricket's corpse,

Wen Han laughed happily and said, "You're dead, you really are dead, how much money did I lose on you?"

Qiu Xi said beside him, "Second Master, it's Mr. Zhao's cricket that was killed. This is Mr. Zhao."

Wen Han then turned his head and glanced at me,

I hurriedly said to Wen Han, "Hello, Mr. Wen, I've long heard of your great name but never met you before; this time I finally get to see you in person."

"Where is Mr. Zhao from?" Wen Han asked.

"He's from a farming family in Xinfadi," I said.

"Mr. Zhao is being modest; development in Xinfadi is going very well, with great momentum, and those coming from there are all big families. Where did you buy Mr. Zhao's cricket?"

"A friend brought it over from Ningyang in Qilu Province. Unfortunately, that guy choked it to death." After saying that, I pointed at Qiao San.

Wen Han said, "Qiao San, this isn't your first time coming here to play; you should know the rules, right."

"You win some, lose some—how could you choke someone else's cricket?"

At this point, Qiao San's half face was swollen,

then he mumbled unclearly, "It killed my bomber, he cheated."

"How can you just say someone cheated? Hongguo Li, you're an old player—did Mr. Zhao's insect cheat? Tell us." Wen Han said to Hongguo Li.

Hongguo Li immediately nodded,

"Second Master, I examined it carefully; Mr. Zhao's insect had no cheating at all—it's completely normal."

"Did you hear that, Qiao San? The insect is normal. If you lose, you lose; if you can't afford to lose, don't play." Wen Han said.

"Wen Han, Mr. Zhao hitting Qiao San is an affront to my face; everyone knows Qiao San hangs with me, so hitting him is like hitting me. This matter needs an explanation." Li Tian said beside him.

Li Tian finally spoke,

Upon hearing Li Tian speak, Wen Han pretended to have just noticed him, clasped his fists and said, "Oh, Li brother, you're here—long time no see. Glad to meet you, glad to meet you."

"Wen Han heard you went to an island country; when did you come back? Why didn't you say so, so the brothers could give you a welcome." Li Tian also returned the fist salute.

"Hehe, I just came back yesterday. Thanks for your concern, brothers. You just said Mr. Zhao hit Qiao San. I and Mr. Zhao are also meeting for the first time."

"We're not old friends either; today Qiu Xi called me over to discuss the matter. What do you think?" Wen Han asked.

"Wen Han, everyone knows this Insect Fighting Pavilion is yours; since we're on your turf, we should hear your opinion."

"But I want to say this: if the handling isn't fair, then don't bother—I won't give you face. My people have already arrived." After saying that, Li Tian pointed at the uniformed people outside the room.

"Haha, Li brother, this is such a small matter; you know their duties are heavy now. We're just playing with insects—why bother them? Let them go back." Wen Han laughed as he said.

This Wen Han spoke calmly, without a trace of panic.

At a glance, he's clearly a seasoned hand.

I looked and thought in my heart, he's definitely a person from Sijiucheng.

"With them here, Wen Han, you can be fair." Li Tian was unwilling to let those uniformed people leave.

"It seems you don't trust me, Li brother. I said today we'd discuss matters; Qiao San lost the insect fight, so he lost."

"Losing means admitting it."

"What does Qiao San choking Mr. Zhao's insect amount to?"

"Insects are everyone's beloved treasures."

"Mr. Zhao hitting Qiao San is wrong,"

"Let's do this: Mr. Zhao apologizes to Qiao San,"

"Qiao San lost how many packets of tea."

Hongguo Li quickly said, "Second Master, Qiao San lost a total of 20 packets of tea; plus Young Master Li and others, it comes to 60 packets."

"Oh, that's quite a stake. How about this: Mr. Zhao doesn't take the tea money,"

"count it as Qiao San's medical expenses."

"Qiao San choked Mr. Zhao's insect, and Mr. Zhao hit him—this evens things out."

"This is the way I said we should handle it." Wen Han said.

Upon hearing Wen Han say that,

Li Tian's face went white and he said, "Wen Han, if you say that, where am I to put my face? I've called everyone here; today we absolutely cannot let that Zhao guy go."

After Li Tian finished speaking, he gestured for the uniformed people to move toward me.

I sneered, my heart already ready—that is, to go head-to-head with these few uniformed people.

"It seems my face isn't enough, my words don't count; Li Tian, don't think that just because you have a few uniformed people you can act high-handed in my place."

"If you want to call people, believe it or not, I can summon all the duty personnel of Sijiucheng."

"Making a fuss over such a small matter would not be good." Wen Han said, word by word.

Upon hearing Wen Han say that,

Li Tian said nothing more,

the scene became a bit awkward.

After about a minute or two of silence,

Li Tian still showed no stance,

"It seems you, Li Tian, don't trust my strength. Qiu Xi, call Lord Wu and have him bring his brothers over." Wen Han said.

"Yes." Qiu Xi quickly pulled out her phone from her bosom.

"Wen Han, today I'll give you face. We won't arrest this Zhao fellow, but I've noted this grudge; from now on, if we meet again, we'll be enemies."

"Unless you, Zhao, never appear in Sijiucheng, if you show up and I, Li, run into you, I won't be polite." Li Tian pointed at me and shouted.

"Hmph, Li Tian, I, Zhao, am not easily frightened. It doesn't matter. As Mr. Wen just said, I don't want those several dozen packets of tea either—I'll just treat it as paying for Qiao San's medical bills."

I also hit Qiao San, and Qiao San also killed my cricket, so this matter is considered even.

I gave Mr. Wen face, which means apologizing to Qiao San: sorry, I went too heavy. We're all guys, bear with it a bit more.

After saying that, I clasped my fists toward Qiao San.

Qiao San stared at me blankly without speaking.

"Mr. Zhao has already apologized, and Li Tian's matter is also considered past. Let's talk about your affairs later; for now, this matter is that I must be given Mr. Wen's face."

In my entertainment hall, absolutely no trouble can occur.

At a glance, Mr. Zhao is a straightforward person; he said he doesn't want the sixty packs of tea, so he doesn't want them.

That's enough.

"Mr. Zhao, please go first."

"Wen Han, you really let Mr. Zhao go," Li Tian asked anxiously.

"I keep my word. Li Tian, don't keep going on. Mr. Zhao, please." Wen Han pointed outside with his hand.

Wen Han's meaning is clear: that I should leave quickly.

At this moment I hastily clasped my fists toward Wen Han,

"Thank you, Mr. Wen. Mr. Zhao will go ahead; when there's time, please invite Mr. Wen to play at New Prosperity Land. He Zuming, let's go."

He Zuming hastily said: "Okay, we're leaving. Thank you, Second Master Wen, Mr. Qiu, and Mr. Li."

He Zuming also clasped his fists at this time.

I and He Zuming hastily walked out from the house.

Young Master Li watched us leave, very angry.

But out of respect for Wen Han's face, he didn't say anything.

We thus swaggered out of the crowd of uniformed people,

Then we walked to the street; I hastily drove, taking He Zuming away from here.
