Chapter 1239: You Have Other Motives
"But if one day he can no longer get by and wants to come back, we will also welcome him with open arms. This is our Six Gates, a place full of human warmth."
"Good." Chen Yu clapped: "Can I join?"
"You? You won't join." Xiao Hong took a look at Chen Yu, then shook her head slightly.
"Why?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned. How could she know he wouldn't join?
"Because you came here with a purpose." Xiao Hong smiled slightly: "You feel that our Six Gates might be able to help you, which is why you came to us, but in fact..."
Xiao Hong said: "Your purpose is not pure, so you won't join, and I would also refuse to let you join."
"So blunt?" Chen Yu smiled slightly: "I do have a purpose in coming here, because I feel you can help me find someone."
"Find whom?" Xiao Hong turned her head to look at Chen Yu.
"A friend, but I don't know what she looks like, what her name is, or where she lives. The only thing I know is that she might believe in Buddhism," Chen Yu said.
"You..." Xiao Hong looked at Chen Yu in frustration and said: "Do you know how many people are in Modu? You only provide information that she is young and believes in Buddhism. It is very difficult for me to find her from among them."
"But I feel I have a connection with you all; perhaps you can help me," Chen Yu smiled slightly.
"I will try my best." Xiao Hong sighed and said: "Although our core personnel are not many, quite a few people have walked out from here."
"Moreover, our intelligence network in this society is also very large. Believing in Buddhism and being young—these are two very key pieces of information. Perhaps from here, we can find some information, but we need to filter it."
"Good, then I will leave it to you. If you have any matters you cannot resolve, perhaps you can find me to solve them," Chen Yu smiled.
"Fine." Xiao Hong nodded.
"Big Sister, it's bad, something happened to Xiao Hu." Just at this moment, Lao Er ran over in a hurry.
"What happened to Xiao Hu?" Xiao Hong's expression changed. Xiao Hu was a member they had newly recruited and was currently still in the observation period. If he had no problems, he would be initiated.
"He was working as a waiter in a bar and spilled drinks on a customer. That customer insisted he pay for it. He didn't have money, so he was beaten," Lao Er shouted.
"Which bar? Call everyone back, let's go get him." Xiao Hong's expression changed.
"I'll go with you," Chen Yu said.
"You?" Xiao Hong took a look at Chen Yu.
"Yes, it's me." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "As for fighting, I am actually quite an expert."
"Good, an extra person means extra strength. Let's go," Xiao Hong said.
Red Leaf Bar, located on a bar street in a district not far from the suburbs.
An eighteen or nineteen-year-old youth was surrounded by a group of big men who were punching and kicking him.
A woman was watching coldly from the side. She sneered: "The kid is quite headstrong. If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."
"Li Jie, I am truly sorry. This kid is new; he doesn't know the rules and has angered you," the bar owner pleaded from the side: "Please, considering he is still young, don't hold it against him."
The bar owner was also helpless. This woman was the mistress of Wen Ge from the bar street. When she went crazy, no one could stop her.
"A Cheng, the goods in your establishment are getting worse and worse compared to before. The quality is getting lower. I came here to have fun, not to find things to block my mood," Li Jie said slowly and methodically.
"I just wanted this kid to have a drink with me, is that so hard? Truly, he doesn't know what's good for him."
While speaking, several big men pressed Xiao Hu, who was covered in blood from the beating, over and made him kneel on the ground.
"Xiao Hu, why are you so stubborn? Wouldn't it be over if you just apologized to Li Jie?" Cheng Ge said with some helplessness.
This kid had a truly stubborn temper. A woman like Li Jie coming here to play was nothing more than looking for a few fresh young men. If she asks you to accompany her, just go and have fun with her, wouldn't that be it?
But this kid just wouldn't agree. Li Jie beat him up to vent her anger; if you just softened your stance, the matter would be over, but this kid just wouldn't bow his head.
"The fault is not mine, I won't apologize." Xiao Hu stiffened his neck and said angrily: "She framed me for spilling wine on her; I didn't."
"The kid has a sharp tongue. It's a pity, he's just a hot-headed fool." Li Jie laughed. She walked up and stared at Xiao Hu, saying: "Now if you soften your stance, big sister won't hold it against you. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite."
"You... don't even think about it..." Xiao Hu's temper was just like that. He raised his head hatefully and stared at Li Jie, possessing quite a bit of an unyielding aura.
"Good, very good. This kid truly doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is." Li Jie laughed out of extreme anger: "A Cheng, I am not happy today. If Wen Ge finds out about this, your bar won't be able to stay open here. You figure it out."
"My little ancestor," Cheng Ge was almost about to kneel to Xiao Hu: "Just soften your stance. I kindly took you in to work here, don't harm me. If Wen Ge comes, I won't be able to survive."
Cheng Ge was also helpless. Having run into this hot-headed fool, he had no other way.
"Cheng Ge, I'm sorry to you, but this old woman cannot humiliate me. My mom said, no matter what, one cannot be ridden over by a woman," Xiao Hu said angrily.
"You really are my ancestor." Cheng Ge truly had no other way, so he had to beg Li Jie for mercy.
"Li Jie, he is just a child. Please let him go, considering he doesn't know any better."
"You little bastard, I didn't want to hold it against you, but you actually think of yourself as someone important? Hold him down!" Li Jie was furious.
She herself was originally from a hostess background. In the past, she was toyed with by men, but now that she had latched onto a big brother in the underworld, her mindset had changed.
She came to this kind of place just to find fun, and she enjoyed the feeling of those men kneeling at her feet and begging for mercy.
How she was hurt by men in the past, she now sought to get back. Originally, seeing that this kid was tender, she wanted to play around, but she didn't expect to hit a nail.
At her command, the several big men on the side pressed Xiao Hu to the ground.
"Kid, I'm giving you one last chance. If you admit defeat and soften your stance to me, I will let you go today. If you dare to be stubborn for one more sentence, see if I don't break your legs."
"Bah, bitch, don't even think about it. Don't think I don't know, a friend of mine was kicked into being a cripple by you," Xiao Hu said coldly: "If you want to hit, then hit. Even if you kill me, don't even think about making me bow my head to you."
"Good, you have backbone." Li Jie sneered. She stepped forward and kicked Xiao Hu's hand fiercely.
Ten fingers connected to the heart; Xiao Hu gasped in pain, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
And Li Jie got angry seeing him in this state. She couldn't help but twist her foot fiercely, and cold sweat streamed down Xiao Hu's forehead from the pain.
