Chapter 86: Let Them Fight Each Other

~8 min read 1,521 words

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Pei Nanli shot a glare at the thuggish Tang Ao, then silently moved to stand behind the tall Wang Chuan.

Tang Ao was greatly alarmed in his heart; could he have misjudged the person again?

No way, he had just glimpsed the rose pattern on this beauty's collarbone; only a big brother's woman gets tattoos, right?

Last time he thought Wang Chuan was easy to bully, only to end up kneeling; he went home to ask his big brother Tang Fei for help, but got scolded.

He had already concluded that Wang Chuan and Xin Yisheng were mixed up with society. Doing some trivial business, he certainly wouldn't be like his own brother Tang Fei, who was eager to make money.

He especially envied Chen Haonan from the Hong Kong movie "Young and Dangerous"; he was too cool. Deep inside, he even had an idea, wanting Wang Chuan to introduce him so he could join Xin Yisheng's side.

"Brother Wang, isn't that Sister-in-law?"

"None of your damn business!" Wang Chuan cursed.

Suddenly remembering that person who was tailing him, Tang Ao's expression didn't look acted; why would someone send a tail to watch me while simultaneously rushing to become my underling?

So he asked directly: "Tang Ao, you went home, did you not find your elders to take revenge on me?!"

Tang Ao's heart sank; Wang Chuan's guess was quite accurate, but his own brother hadn't helped.

He quickly patted his chest and said: "How could that be! Brother Wang is my guiding light; without Brother's intervention, I wouldn't know how to walk the path of the future!"

Wang Chuan caught Tang Ao's fleeting look of panic.

"Really not?!" Wang Chuan's cold gaze swept over Cai Yueming beside him again, "If I find out you are lying, the consequences might not be very good, you know!"

Cai Yueming, made nervous by the glare, nodded first then shook his head, "No... no."

Tang Ao's expression matched his guess; the person tailing him was sent by him. Yet his enthusiastic behavior just now didn't look like that of someone sent to tail him.

This kid Tang Ao, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, didn't have such good acting skills.

'Tomorrow, I should still ask Director Tao Tao to inquire about the specific background of the person tailing me. If this person can't be held for long and comes out to continue tailing me, it will be very troublesome!'

Wang Chuan smiled slightly, "Coming to the Bar this late, could it be that you are here to watch the match?"

"Yes, Brother Wang, are you watching the match later too?"

"If I have time, I'll watch." Wang Chuan replied.

After speaking, he pulled Pei Nanli and walked towards the private room.

A while later, on the way, Cai Yueming said: "Brother Ao, this Wang Chuan is pretty awesome. Haven't seen him in a few days, and he's found another curvy girl, seems even taller than Xin Chanxi, and her development is better!"

"Don't dream about it; a big brother's woman who hasn't gone to jail yet! Do you understand the rules of the underworld!"

Tang Ao tapped Cai Yueming on the head.

They walked into a large private room where there were already quite a few guests preparing to watch the match.

"Tang Ao, why didn't your brother come?" a young man with stitches on his face asked, smiling at him.

"Oh, it's Brother Xiao. Cai Yueming, this is Xiao Rongyue, Brother Xiao, hurry up and say hello."

Tang Ao put on a forced smile; he had put on a forced smile when meeting Wang Chuan just now, and now he had to put on a forced smile meeting Xiao Rongyue.

The group of people laid off from the Mingzhou HVAC Factory were later absorbed by Jiangcheng Xiao's Group, establishing Xiao Group Mingzhou HVAC Factory, which was their Tang Family's fierce competitor.

"My brother has family matters. By the way, Brother Xiao, why come to Mingzhou? Isn't the Mingzhou company managed by your Nephew?"

"I got tired of staying in Jiangcheng, so I came to Mingzhou to relax. I didn't expect that a small place like Mingzhou would also have Nanshan Blue Fire Bar." Xiao Rongyue glanced at Tang Ao.

Recently, Xiao Family and Tang Family had been fighting a fierce price war, squeezing Tang Family into a very uncomfortable position; rumors said Tang Family was preparing to further expand overseas markets to make up for losses. Xiao Rongyue volunteered to his Nephew, knowing Tang Family had invested in this Bar, and came to investigate the news.

Tang Ao thought, this rich young wastrel Xiao Rongyue was actually just like him, knowing nothing about doing business, but he had self-awareness and didn't touch business.

Xiao Rongyue was different. He thought about becoming a General Manager of a subsidiary company under Xiao's Group every day, just to show off in the circle of rich second-generation kids in Jiangcheng and Mingzhou.

'By the way, today is the European Cup; let's bet on a match, create a conflict between him and Wang Chuan, let Wang Chuan teach him a good lesson. Or let Wang Chuan get taught a lesson by Xiao Rongyue. I can accept either.'

Thinking of this, Tang Ao pretended to smile and said: "Brother Xiao, today is the European Cup Opening Match, which team do you favor? How much money did you bet?"

"Damn, does it need to be said? Portugal, the host nation?" Xiao Rongyue sneered.

Hearing this, Tang Ao wondered how to persuade Wang Chuan to bet on Greece to win; he needed to think about it.

Let the two of them fight; he would definitely bet on Portugal to win in secret.

This kid Cai Yueming loved football, had done research, and once said that since the European Cup introduced group stages in 1980, it had maintained a record of the host nation not losing the opening match.

On the way back to the private room, Wang Chuan showed Pei Nanli the text message from Ning Hui.

Pei Nanli complained, "Wang Chuan, why are you mixing with little hooligans now? And when will you send me home?"

"This little hooligan is a high school senior graduate from the same school as Xin Chanxi; last time he harassed Xin Chanxi at the Driving School, and I beat him up." Wang Chuan replied: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Xin Chanxi, ask Wang Jia."

"Your mom said before midnight, and now it's half past eleven; are you leaving later, or leaving now? You can just take a taxi yourself."

Pei Nanli was stunned, "Wang Chuan, what do you mean? In the middle of the night, you want me to take a taxi home alone?!"

She hadn't expected that Wang Chuan didn't plan to send her home; she was very dissatisfied inside, forgetting that just now she had been afraid Wang Chuan might do something to her.

The taxi driver's threat was higher than Wang Chuan's threat.

"No, there are so many people here, all brought by me to the Bar; I can't just leave them and go, right?" Wang Chuan replied in a low voice.

"Jiangnan Misty Rain Community, the round trip is estimated to take about fifteen minutes; what matter could be delayed?"

Hearing Pei Nanli say this, Wang Chuan chuckled lightly: "Pei Nanli, you aren't afraid of me anymore now. You lost just now."

Pei Nanli took out her Mobile Phone and typed out a text message: "Mom, Wang Chuan will send me home later!"

Pressing send, she said: "My mom knows you are sending me home; if you dare to do anything to me! You are the main culprit, you can't escape."

Wang Chuan gave Pei Nanli a thumbs-up, returned to the private room, and found Sun Ying and Li Wei occupying the microphones, singing a duet of Jacky Cheung's "I Have a Crush on You".

And Sun Ying's boyfriend Xu Jincheng was a loyal audience member.

'Damn it, did Sun Ying and Li Wei take a fancy to each other? Did Li Wei actively expose his identity as a rich second-generation kid?'

Wang Chuan shook his head, came to Xin Chanxi's side, and asked: "When are you going home? It's half past eleven already? I saw Tang Ao outside just now."

Xin Chanxi's beautiful brows furrowed tightly: "Tang Ao, did he come to trouble you?"

Wang Chuan replied: "No, your Senior Student Pei is preparing to go home; in the middle of the night, are you two going back together?"

Xin Chanxi glanced at the time. "My driver arrives in twenty minutes. Why not ask Senior Student Pei to wait a bit longer so we can leave together? I'll go tell her."

Wang Chuan suggested, "Wait a moment and ask Sun Ying; you two came together."

Creak—the private room door opened, and Tang Ao and Cai Yueming walked in, followed by General Manager Cao Te.

"Brother Wang, the European Cup Opening Match is coming up; did you place your bets? Manager Cao here has a Hong Kong channel—safe and worry-free."
