"Cat Master, that kid was too arrogant, he actually made a move on our turf! Why did you still want me to back off?"
After reporting, A Tu couldn't help but express his confusion to Nine Lives Wildcat, "If Master Jin finds out, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain!"
"Heh, A Tu, it's precisely because it's not easy to explain that I didn't let you take action!"
Nine Lives Wildcat lit a cigar and took a few puffs before speaking profoundly to A Tu, "Ling Zhenfei, that kid, is indeed not simple. No wonder even Tan Shaojie and Hei Biao have fallen to him one after another. If we clash with him head-on, I'm afraid there won't be any good to reap!"
"That may be, but..."
A Tu, though feeling the same, expressed his concern with a worried tone, "Cat Master, if we just let go like this, I'm afraid we will be laughed at by the people in the Jianghu!"
"Laughed at? Heh..."
Nine Lives Wildcat slowly blew out a smoke ring, his face full of disdain as he said, "Anyone who wants to laugh can go deal with Ling Zhenfei themselves. Until we are absolutely certain we can take care of that kid, we must not rashly make a move, understand?"
"This... Alright, I will follow Cat Master's command to the letter!"
Although A Tu was unwilling, as Nine Lives Wildcat's most loyal subordinate, he would never, ever go against any of Cat Master's wishes.
"Enough, A Tu, take that kid from Le Family and personally visit Golden Teeth."
Nine Lives Wildcat took a few strong puffs on his cigar, and then with a wave of his hand, he gravely ordered A Tu, "Once you're with Master Jin, don't hold anything back, tell him the truth about what happened here. As for how to deal with Ling Zhenfei, let Golden Teeth handle it! We'll just watch from the wall for now!"
"Yes!"
A Tu nodded, then respectfully left the office.
As Nine Lives Wildcat watched A Tu leave, he sighed softly and said in a low voice, "It seems that this Ling kid is really not simple. To deal with him, I wonder if Young Master has come up with effective measures?"
Though Nine Lives Wildcat's remark seemed like he was talking to himself, a closer listen revealed that his words seemed to have a particular implication.
"Hmph, he's just an unknown kid, why would Young Master need to make a move? I, Chen Jiahao, can clean him up all by myself!"
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a cold laugh coming from behind a screen in the office.
Then, a figure in green clothes emerged like a ghost...
Ling Zhenfei relaxed in the private room of Royal No.1 Club, listened to some music, and sipped tea until the cooperation procedures between Fatty and Ikeda Yasushi were fully completed, then he allowed Ikeda to leave.
"Boss, it's really unexpected, just when we thought we were at a dead end, your casual move turned the situation around, and we picked up such a great bargain!"
Filled with pride, Fatty brandished the contract in his hand, his chubby face beaming with endless joy.
He had already roughly calculated that even if they were just acting as middlemen for this deal, their profit would be at least five million.
"Alright then, since the contract is signed, you'd better hurry back and handle it! That little Japanese guy Ikeda is full of tricks, you still need to be cautious." Ling Zhenfei timely reminded Fatty.
"Mm, okay, boss, then we'll head back now!" Upon hearing this, Fatty deeply agreed and stood up to leave.
"You should head back first, I'd like to stay a bit longer!" Ling Zhenfei was rarely afforded such leisure in the midst of busyness, and he actually felt too lazy to get up from where he leaned.
"Alright, boss, just be careful on your own, I'll head back now!" Fatty nodded and left the table alone to return.
Ling Zhenfei sat there alone, listening to music, but his thoughts shot off in an instant, and he filtered through the day's events over and over in his mind.
He certainly knew that the Royal No.1 Club was the property of Jiangquan District's big boss, Nine Lives Wildcat, and that having offended Cyclops Mountain Eagle, as the boss of Cyclops, Nine Lives Wildcat would definitely not turn a blind eye.
This time Ling Zhenfei had a fight in the club, half because he was annoyed by Le Wu Ya's audacity to slap Fatty, and the other reason was he wanted to test Nine Lives Wildcat, this tiger seated on the mountain.
He wanted to gauge the depths of Nine Lives Wildcat, this infamous underworld figure, to see just how deep the waters were here.
After all, Nine Lives Wildcat was an old-timer in Jianghu, with decades of experience in the underworld, incomparable to Hei Biao and the other district bosses. Even compared to Binyang underground world's head honcho, Golden Teeth, Nine Lives Wildcat was not inferior!
Ling Zhenfei originally thought that by making a move in Nine Lives Wildcat's territory and injuring Le Wu Ya, Nine Lives Wildcat would act, whether it was to maintain their own face or to give an explanation to Golden Teeth.
However, he did not expect that Nine Lives Wildcat could be so tolerant, to actually call back A Tu!
What was the true intention behind Nine Lives Wildcat's move?
Was he really unwilling to wade into these troubled waters, or did he have other plans?
At this moment, Ling Zhenfei's doubts only increased, but no matter how he pondered, he could not find an answer. Finally, he could only put these doubts aside temporarily and take it one step at a time.
Anyway, he had already offended enough enemies. He did not care about adding a few more.
No matter how ruthless characters like Golden Teeth and Nine Lives Wildcat were, so what?
Ling Zhenfei's ambitions were far beyond the shallows of Binyang. Since a conflict with the various district bosses was inevitable, why not let it come sooner rather than later?
Perhaps because he had drunk too much tea earlier, Ling Zhenfei felt a sudden urge to pee, so he stood up and headed for the bathroom.
No sooner had he stepped out of the men's restroom than he heard a commotion and shouting from the adjacent women's restroom.
The door to the women's restroom was half-open, and driven by curiosity, Ling Zhenfei peeked inside. To his shock, he found several big men pinning a woman to the ground, attempting something nefarious.
The woman, with her hair disheveled, was desperately struggling and crying out for help, but her mouth was forcefully covered by one of the big men.
What outrageous behavior! These guys were daring to commit such an act in broad daylight!
Just as those big men were about to drag the woman out of the restroom, they suddenly noticed Ling Zhenfei peering around curiously. One Bearded Man, enraged, glared at Ling Zhenfei with his bulging eyes, "What are you looking at? This doesn't concern you, get lost!"
The face of the Bearded Man was filled with killing aura; anyone ordinary who saw it would be terrified out of their wits, and would surely not meddle in this matter.
But how could Ling Zhenfei turn a blind eye to such a sight?
"Get lost? Heh..."
Far from being intimidated by the Bearded Man's fierce demeanor, Ling Zhenfei disdainfully glanced at him. Pointing a finger at the woman with her hair in disarray, he commanded, "Let her go, and I might give you a chance to beat it!"
