Chapter 27: Reconciliation

Flower Hua Yelou.

The warm yellow light made people feel itchy in their hearts, and from time to time, the giggles of women could be heard.

Master Zhu of the Zhu household raised his wine glass happily: "Li Laoge, you hid it from me so well. If I had known, I wouldn't have been willing to let you go no matter what."

Li Rui sat with a beautiful young woman with a round thigh on his lap...

He pinched the young woman's waist hard.

Making the young woman shyly glance at this lecherous old man, giggling non-stop.

"Just a lucky breakthrough."

Li Rui said, sighing in his heart.

Master Zhu actually called him "Brother"; before, that was something he wouldn't even dare to think about.

Flower Hua Yelou was even more of a place he wouldn't dare to think about.

"Now that Brother has gone to the Tiandi Alliance, the connection with the family cannot be broken; come back and see often in the future."

Zhu Ping changed his usual arrogance.

People who do business are best at saying nice things.

He didn't mention Li Rui working at the Zhu household at all; after all, no one likes others to mention their lowly status.

"Old brother, I heard from Wang Zhao that your body needs to be relaxed recently; pick any girl in this building."

"Then I won't be polite."

Li Rui leaned comfortably on the recliner, a pair of soft hands kneading his shoulders.

He didn't expect Zhu Ping to be so generous.

This Flower Hua Yelou was not a brothel, but a proper pleasure house.

Staying one night costs at least eight taels of silver.

Eight taels of silver, even if Li Rui became a Hall Master of Hun Tian Yi Hall, he wouldn't be willing to spend it like this.

The next moment.

The laughter that only men understand rang out in the private room between Zhu Ping and Li Rui.

After three rounds of drinking, seeing that the atmosphere had been set up enough.

Zhu Ping took out an exquisite small wooden box from his bosom: "Old brother, this elixir is called Tiger Bone Pill, it is an Eighth-Rank spiritual elixir."

Li Rui's pupils widened slightly, his heart pounding.

When Zhu Ping took out the elixir, he had already sensed its extraordinariness, but he didn't expect it to be an Eighth-Rank spiritual elixir.

A big move!

"Only above the Eighth Rank can it be called a spiritual elixir, one spiritual elixir is at least five hundred taels..."

The words of the Medicine Hall disciple echoed in Li Rui's ears.

Five hundred taels... he was really willing.

Even the Zhu household's family foundation would be strained.

Zhu Ping laughed and greeted the door.

Zhu Lie walked into the private room reluctantly.

"Li Laoge had some misunderstandings with my second brother before, but after all, we are all family. I hope old brother can let bygones be bygones and wipe out the past."

As he spoke, he glared at Zhu Lie: "Why don't you apologize to Li Laoge quickly."

During this period.

He specifically investigated the matter between Li Rui and Zhu Lie.

It wasn't simple after investigating.

A coachman named Ma Yang, and a guard named Zhao San.

After offending Li Rui, they died inexplicably.

Although there was no evidence to prove it was Li Rui's doing, Zhu Ping believed that this matter must be Li Rui's doing.

"Li Lao is usually happy, but his hands are so ruthless."

He was so ruthless before he redeemed his freedom; now that he is a martial artist, what would happen?

Zhu Ping didn't want to be targeted by a Rank-Entered martial artist, so he would rather spend a fortune to resolve the matter.

Seeing Zhu Lie still reluctant, he shouted again: "If you still recognize me as your brother, apologize to Li Laoge now."

Zhu Lie's veins throbbed on his face, and after a long time, a few words popped out from between his teeth: "Li Lao, it was my fault before, please bear with me."

The attitude couldn't be said to be good, but being able to let this second master of the Zhu household apologize to Li Rui, a former coachman of the Zhu household, was already unprecedented.

Li Rui waved his hand: "It's all old news, no need to mention it again; I stopped caring long ago."

Hearing Li Rui's words, Zhu Ping's smile became even brighter, and a huge stone in his heart finally fell.

Old people are particular about doing things.

They are all adults; there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. In the face of interests, there is no hatred that cannot be resolved.

People who do business are most afraid of meeting hot-headed youths, with a stubborn temper, treating small grudges as huge matters, and constantly risking their lives without reconciliation; Zhu Ping looked down on such people the most.

The Zhu household and Li Rui joining forces was originally a win-win situation.

Zhu Ping didn't think Li Rui had any reason to refuse; he felt his attitude was low enough and gave Li Rui enough face.

It was another scene of host and guest enjoying themselves, and the giggles of women didn't stop.

After a full hour, Li Rui finally left with the elixir, hugging the round woman, and walked toward the guest room contentedly.

Only the Zhu brothers remained in the room.

Zhu Lie opened his mouth with unwillingness: "Brother, just a half-dead old man, find a few people to bury him at night, why should our family fear him so much?"

Zhu Ping's eyes were cold.

Slap!

A crisp slap rang out in the room.

"If you are still so lawless in the future, you don't have to return to the Zhu household, and I am not your brother."

"Brother..."

Zhu Lie covered his face, full of shock.

Brother would actually hit him for a coachman?!

Zhu Ping looked at his second brother's appearance and sighed, his tone softening: "Second brother, the Zhu household is no longer the small family it used to be. Making too many enemies will definitely bring retribution. If enemies seek revenge, we two can be fine, but what about the whole family?"

"Having become a wealthy family, one should have the tolerance of a wealthy family; do you understand?"

Zhu Lie clenched his fists, making a clattering sound of bones, his knuckles turning white.

"Hehe..."

Zhu Ping was helpless: "I know your temper, but Li Lao is already a member of the Tiandi Alliance."

"I'll tell you one thing, an Alliance Leader of the Tiandi Alliance has already broken through."

Zhu Lie's eyes widened.

The Tiandi Alliance's Alliance Leader was a Seventh-Rank before.

Broken through.

Wouldn't that make him a Sixth-Rank Small Grandmaster?

Ghost.

Sixth-Rank, looking at the entire Yunzhou, that can be considered a figure.

"Don't ruin the relationship with the Tiandi Alliance because of this little thing again."

"I don't want to say it a second time."

After speaking, Zhu Ping flicked his sleeve and went downstairs.

Zhu Lie looked gloomy, gnashing his teeth:

"Li Lao, this matter is not over. There is still a long time in the future; you can't wait, but I can."

"I don't believe you can live another ten years!"

He had already made up his mind that when Li Rui could only lie on the hospital bed, he would personally smother Li Rui to death.

In a room full of red curtains.

The undulating body lay flat on the soft couch, eyes closed, breathing evenly.

Li Rui stood calmly in the room.

He carefully confirmed that the woman on the bed was not feigning unconsciousness, and then nodded contentedly.

A martial artist, wanting to knock out a brothel woman who has no strength to truss a chicken, is too simple.

A cold light flashed in his eyes.

The unwillingness and ruthlessness on Zhu Lie's face just now were too obvious.

"Since you don't want to live, don't blame me."

Take the gift, kill the person.

All of it!
