After Xiao Zheng was coaxed away by Mister Zhao, Li Mubai immediately ordered his subordinates to send Chong Chen to the hospital, then cleaned up the scene and called all the restaurant staff. After a series of threats and promises to ensure that the matter was suppressed, he finally walked out of the restaurant, exhausted.
However, the confusion and hatred in his eyes did not dissipate. They were only hidden in the depths of his eyes, not letting anyone see through them.
After Chong Chen's subordinates left the restaurant, they went straight to the hospital. Li Mubai followed them to a black Rolls-Royce, opened the door with a humble but uneasy attitude, and sat inside.
The exterior of the car was not as flashy as a Ferrari or Lamborghini, but the interior was extremely luxurious, spacious and transparent.
This car was Mister Zhao's car. Everyone on Pearl Road knew that. Even many local residents who did not mingle in the streets knew that the owner of this car was the legendary Mister Zhao of Pearl Road.
When he boarded the car, Zhao Qingyun sat quietly on the left side, while the old man sat expressionlessly on the right. He held a glass of whiskey in his hand, and drank it in large gulps with a displeased expression. He was obviously unhappy.
Zhao Qingyun followed but did not get out of the car. With Li Mubai's intelligence, he immediately understood the reason.
The two of them had fought at the old man's birthday banquet. If they appeared in the situation just now, it would definitely add to the unnecessary dispute and increase the smell of gunpowder. Therefore, he passed through the door but did not enter, and waited in the car.
After Li Mubai got in the car, he very rationally chose to sit next to Zhao Qingyun. He looked at Mister Zhao with a subtle expression, and said with mixed emotions, "Godfather — — Slap!"
Before he finished speaking, Mister Zhao stretched out his hand without warning and slapped Li Mubai's face. His gold-rimmed glasses were slapped askew, and a few bright red finger marks quickly appeared on his refined face. He looked extremely pathetic.
"I'm just preparing to retire!" Mister Zhao suppressed his anger and scolded. "But you're not dead yet! I said not to provoke Xiao Zheng. Do you think my words are bullshit!? "
The old man had not been angry for a long time. Especially when facing these godson. But today, he slapped Li Mubai hard and scolded him like a roar. Li Mubai was covered in dog blood, and his body trembled.
The ferocious tiger was old, but its power was still there. Among the four sons of the Zhao family, Li Mubai's style was the closest to Ye Shiguan's, and he was the chief strategist who could best understand Ye Shiguan's thoughts.
Among the four sons of the Zhao family, Li Mubai was the chief strategist who had the closest style to Ye Shiguan. Outside, he was the second brother whom even the eldest of the Zhao Clan, Chen Chong, respected. In the Zhao Clan, he was the strategist that the old master relied on the most. But now, he was slapped across the face by Old Master Sheng. Zhao Qingyun, Qingyun, and Li Qingyun Qingyun. by Zhao, Qing Qingyun, and Mubai His lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say a word.
The Li Yu, Yang, and was, Yang, the Xiao, and did not say. by, he, the Xiao, the old, the Chen Chen of, he, the old, he, he, Chen, Chen, and, the Xiao, and, and Xiao Chen of Yun of Li of the. Chen, Yang, and Chen, and,, would, The Ye,,, of Chen, and, and would,, the Chen, and., So, he accepted the slap, bowed his head, and admitted his mistake.
After Mister Zhao's reprimand, his anger dissipated, and he glared at Li Mubai. "You are the smartest of the four brothers, the most intelligent. Even if there is a big problem, can't you mediate it? How could you let Xiao Zheng and Chen Chong fight? "
"I don't like Xiao Zheng, either. So — "Li Mubai said in a low voice.
"So you let Chen Chong do as he pleases?" Mister Zhao said angrily. "I warned you, Xiao Zheng is not an ordinary person. He was able to kill a dragon that crossed the river, and that has already proved his courage and ability. Do you really want to die on the street? Do you want to make another enemy while confronting Ye Shiguan? "
Li Mubai said bitterly, "Godfather, I lost control. I should have stopped their fight."
Mister Zhao snorted and ordered the driver, "Go to the hospital."
…
After coming out of the restaurant, Lin Xiaozhu kept walking. The wound on her arm had stopped bleeding, but it still hurt. She didn't dare to raise her head, and she didn't dare to look at Xiao Zheng. At this moment, she realized how terrifying this brother-in-law that she couldn't see through was, and how she didn't dare to get close to him.
In the past, she only thought that Xiao Zheng could fight, was cute, and was loyal. But she never thought that Xiao Zheng would kill someone, and kill someone in front of her.
Killing someone was too terrifying for Lin Xiaozhu, who was only a high school student. The impact on her soul was too great. She couldn't accept this reality in a short time. Accept the fact that her brother-in-law was a murderer.
She knew that Xiao Zheng was taking revenge for her, but no matter what, deep in her heart, there was still a trace of fear for Xiao Zheng. A trace — escape.
She wanted to be a chivalrous woman, but it was just the kind of chivalrous woman in the movies who wielded a sword and wandered the world. The movies wouldn't show the cruel and murderous side of a chivalrous woman. She also didn't know that to be a chivalrous woman, she had to kill a lot of people.
She was impulsive and rebellious, but she had now turned over a new leaf. But her brother-in-law — was a more terrible person than she had imagined, a person who killed people like flies.
Her heart was in a mess.
Xiao Zheng followed behind her. He walked very slowly and did not make a sound. He guessed Lin Xiaozhu's mind and understood how much impact today's events would have on Lin Xiaozhu. He even completely changed his view of himself.
But he didn't regret it, not at all.
She was his sister-in-law, and he was her brother-in-law, even if the identity of brother-in-law could only last for two months. But he wanted to do his best to protect her. Don't let anyone hurt her.
This was Xiao Zheng's attitude, the attitude of a man who had no family and never had any relatives.
Whoever dared to touch his sister-in-law, he would let him die. There was no discussion.
The distance between the restaurant and the school was not far, and it took ten minutes to walk there.
Standing at the school gate, Lin Xiaozhu turned around with difficulty. Her pale face had mixed emotions, but she finally raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Zheng: "I — I'm going back to school."
"OK." Xiao Zheng nodded gently and said softly. "Go to the school infirmary and bandage it. Although the wound is not deep, it may still be infected. Remember not to touch water, it will be inflamed. By the way — "
"I know." Lin Xiaozhu interrupted Xiao Zheng's instructions, lowered her eyes and said very quickly. "I'm going to be late, I should go back to the classroom."
Xiao Zheng still wanted to say something, but Lin Xiaozhu quickly walked into the school gate. She quickly disappeared from his sight.
Xiao Zheng stood at the door, his eyes gloomily watching Lin Xiaozhu who was getting farther and farther away, and his face was full of loneliness.
Maybe — I should stay away from her.
