"Heh, it's nothing. Haven't I always loved playing football? Three years ago, I was playing football with someone and accidentally fractured my leg. That left the root of the illness! "
Cheng Yi sat down and forced a smile. "It's fine. I can walk and jump. My daily life isn't affected at all!"
Jiang Tian lowered his head and took a sip of tea. He did not say anything.
Cheng Yi did not tell the truth. There must be something behind it.
But since Cheng Yi did not want to say it, Jiang Tian did not want to force him. He would ask him when the time was right.
Qinger also noticed the abnormality.
But since Jiang Tian did not ask, she naturally would not ask either. She obediently poured tea for Jiang Tian and the rest.
"Is this my sister-in-law?" Cheng Yi held the cup with both hands and thanked her.
Jiang Tian nodded his head.
"How virtuous! Jiang Tian, you're so lucky! "Cheng Yi praised.
"Cheng Yi, let me tell you. This place is now mine. Drink to your heart's content tonight! Aren't you the God of Wine? I'll definitely take you down today! "
Zhen Shuai, on the other hand, didn't notice anything. He put on the airs of a big boss and shouted, ordering wine and food. He was awe-inspiring and extremely smug.
"Zhen Shuai, you're doing pretty well! I heard that there are a few chain stores in Emperor International that are worth hundreds of millions! "
Cheng Yi praised. But Jiang Tian noticed that Cheng Yi's gaze was calm. He thought that Cheng Yi's background was probably not simple. Just what was his background?
"Jiang Tian, I'm really sorry. I didn't even know that you guys got married in Lin Zhou City. Here's a red packet for you!"
Cheng Yi immediately took out a stack of money from his wallet and wrapped it in red paper. He handed it to Zhao Xueqing and smiled apologetically, "Sister-in-law, you must accept it. It's just a token of my appreciation!"
"Jiang Tian, this …" Qinger hesitated.
"It's Boss's kind intentions. Just accept it!" After Jiang Tian nodded, Qinger accepted the red packet.
Tan Guangxu smiled and said, "Cheng Yi, you are really generous. One red packet is equivalent to half a year of my salary!"
"No, I'm not doing well …" Cheng Yi smiled. It wasn't modesty, but rather bitterness.
He laughed heartily and said, "But no matter how difficult it is for me, when you get married, each of you will get 10,000 yuan as a wedding gift!"
Jiang Tian said faintly, "At that time, Eldest Brother's family was in dire straits. They relied on Auntie to earn money to support the family. Cheng Yi swore at that time that he would become a rich man. He promised that he would give anyone who got married half a kilogram of money as a gift … "
Jiang Tian looked at him deeply, and said, "At that time, Boss Cheng was really full of heroic spirit!"
"Young and frivolous!"
Cheng Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I've calculated that 500 yuan per catty is about 48,000 yuan! I can't afford it now! "
"Forget it. Even if you give 4.8 million yuan, it's nothing in front of Jiang Tian!"
The dishes began to be served. Zhen Shuai opened a thirty-year-old bottle of Maotai and poured wine for everyone. He laughed and said, "Jiang Tian is amazing now. He's the Crown Prince of Medicine King Group! Medicine King Group is now worth tens of millions! "
"Zhen Shuai!" Tan Guangxu glared at him.
Obviously, Cheng Yi didn't seem to be doing well. If anyone heard it, they might hurt him.
"Jiang Tian, congratulations!"
Cheng Yi raised his glass and smiled. "I'm afraid that you can be on par with Nie Family, Sun Family, and Chen Family!"
The two clinked their glasses and drank.
Jiang Tian found that even at this moment, Cheng Yi didn't show the slightest bit of shock. There were only blessings.
"Bah! Nie Family and Sun Family are nothing! "
Zhen Shuai spat and said disdainfully, "Nie Family, Sun Family, and Chen Family were all destroyed by Jiang Tian! Sun Hao was directly killed by Jiang Tian! This is … awesome! "
His resentment toward Sun Hao hadn't completely dissipated until now.
Cheng Yi's face changed when he heard that. His hand that was holding the glass trembled slightly, and some wine spilled out.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Jiang Tian, be careful. The power behind these three families is not to be trifled with!"
"What power?" Jiang Tian asked with interest.
"Do you know Japan's Cherry Blossom Society?" Cheng Yi's face trembled as he said softly.
"Cheng Yi, since you know about the Cherry Blossom Society, who are you?"
Jiang Tian was very curious, but he shook his head without batting an eyelid.
"Cherry Blossom Society … is too far away. You know Yakuza's Yamaguchi-gumi, right?" Cheng Yi frowned.
"Who doesn't know? They've been in movies before. Yamaguchi-gumi, mafia, and so on …" Zhen Shuai said with a smile.
"In Japan, Yamaguchi-gumi is ruled by the Cherry Blossom Society!" Cheng Yi frowned with deep fear.
"How do you know all this?" Jiang Tian asked with interest.
"This … I heard it from someone at a barbeque stall!" Cheng Yi smiled embarrassedly.
"Haha, Cheng Yi, you northeasterners like to brag. Yamaguchi-gumi is already so powerful. How can there be a Cherry Blossom Society stronger than them? If you're so good at making up stories, why don't you write web novels? It's like there's rice in a vat! "Zhen Shuai laughed.
Cheng Yi smiled awkwardly and said, "Jiang Tian, I'll call you later!"
At this moment, Tan Guangxu asked, "Cheng Yi, you've been away from Jinling for so many years. How have you been? How's your aunt? "
"My mother has passed away …"
A trace of grief appeared on Cheng Yi's face, but it was immediately covered up by a fake smile. He said with a smile, "She died of a cerebral infarction. There wasn't much pain, and she passed away peacefully!"
"Cheng Yi, my condolences!" Tan Guangxu said with some regret.
Zhen Shuai quickly raised his glass and said, "Let's drink, let's drink. It's rare for us brothers to get together. Let's not talk about these unhappy things!"
After everyone drank for a while, Jiang Tian asked, "Cheng Yi, what about you? What are you doing? "
"My mother left me a sum of money, and it's enough for me to eat, drink, and play for a while. I've been traveling around, and I've been living a carefree life!" Cheng Yi smiled proudly.
Jiang Tian didn't want to ask any more questions.
It could be said that Cheng Yi didn't speak a single word of truth aside from the few words about the cherry blossom festival.
Soon, it was already 10 pm at night.
Cheng Yi looked at the time on his phone and smiled, "Alright, that's all for today. I have to go!"
"What's so funny? One-stop service. You can eat, drink, and gamble. There's still two more! "
Zhen Shuai said. He was so drunk that his eyes were hazy.
Jiang Tian coughed, and Zhen Shuai was startled. He immediately said, "Sister-in-law, I've said too much. There's no gambling or gambling. It's a proper massage! Jiang Tian, you're not allowed to play. Cheng Yi, you're not allowed to leave! "
"I really have to go!" Cheng Yi insisted.
"Stay at my place. My presidential suite!" Zhen Shuai smiled.
"There's no need. I've booked a presidential suite at Sheraton. I'll look for you guys tomorrow! "Cheng Yi shook hands with everyone and walked out quickly.
"To Mount Wu!"
At the entrance of Emperor International, Cheng Yi refused to be sent off. He stopped a taxi and whispered to the driver.
"Mount Wu?"
Jiang Tian raised his eyebrows. Mount Wu was a barren mountain. Didn't he book a hotel?
"Okay!" The driver nodded. Cheng Yi was about to get into the car, but Jiang Tian stopped him.
He threw a hundred yuan to the driver and said, "Master, I'm sorry for delaying your business. You can go first!"
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yi looked at Jiang Tian in surprise.
Jiang Tian didn't say anything. Instead, he dragged him into Emperor International and into an empty private room.
Jiang Tian didn't let Qinger and the rest in. He took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured a glass for Cheng Yi. He then poured another glass for himself. Then, he stared at Cheng Yi and said coldly, "Cheng Yi, if you treat me as your brother, then tell me how you lost your leg!"
"It's okay, it's okay. Second Brother, you're thinking too much …"
Cheng Yi pretended to be relaxed and said, "I had a car accident and amputated my leg. I didn't want you guys to feel uncomfortable, so I didn't tell you!"
Jiang Tian downed the wine in his glass in one gulp. Bang! He smashed the floor and said coldly, "You really don't treat me as your brother. Good, you're really good!"
"I …"
Cheng Yi opened his mouth to speak. His expression kept changing. Then, he slumped on the sofa and grabbed his hair with both hands. He said sadly, "Second Brother, it's not that I don't want to tell you. I don't want you to worry. I'm also afraid that I'll hurt you!"
"Cheng Yi, believe me. I can definitely help you!"
Jiang Tian sat down and poured himself another glass of wine. He drank it in one gulp.
"Help me?"
Cheng Yi drank a mouthful of wine and said with a bitter smile, "Jiang Tian, no one in this world can help me. I've already accepted my fate!"
"Your leg was cut off by an expert with a knife. You're actually not traveling. You're running for your life."
Jiang Tian said coldly, "Moreover, you're running so fast that you don't even dare to stay in a hotel. You can only sleep in the wild, right?"
"Second Brother, you've matured …" Cheng Yi smiled and finally told Jiang Tian everything.
It turned out that Cheng Yi really came from a martial arts family in the northeast, just as Jiang Tian had guessed. This family wasn't strong, but they had opened a martial arts school and were also involved in some shipping and foreign trade. The family also had billions of assets.
The Cheng family had several heirloom gems, which were said to be able to quickly improve a martial artist's cultivation. However, Cheng Yi's father, Cheng Yi, found that it was not the case at all.
These stones didn't have any spiritual energy at all. He spent ten years and didn't find anything unusual about these stones, so he forgot about this matter and lived a peaceful life that stood aloof from worldly affairs.
It happened when Cheng Yi was ten years old. Suddenly, several experts from the Yamaguchi-gumi broke into the Cheng family and wanted to buy them at a high price.
Cheng Yi flatly refused. Although he couldn't see what was so powerful about these so-called gems, they were, after all, heirlooms. No matter how much the other party offered, Cheng Yi was unwilling to sell them.
The other party didn't agree and immediately attacked. The Yamaguchi-gumi captured several members of the Cheng family and threatened Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi had no choice but to give a few gems to the other party. However, the experts from the Yamaguchi-gumi didn't seem to know how to use these gems. They thought that the gems given by the Cheng family were fake and came to harass them every few days.
Cheng Yi's cultivation was only at the peak of the Iron Body Stage. He couldn't fight the Yamaguchi-gumi at all. He had no choice but to leave the northeast, change his name, and hide all over the country.
Cheng Yi suddenly rented a residence in the Qixia County government's residence to avoid the Yamaguchi-gumi's pursuit.
When he graduated from college, Cheng Yi suddenly left Jinling and returned to his hometown in the northeast because the Yamaguchi-gumi once again captured the fugitive Cheng Yi.
After more than ten years of diligent study and hard training, Cheng Yi had already reached the Iron Body Stage. His mother's cultivation had also reached the level of internal strength. He thought he could fight the other party and rescue his father.
However, the other party had brought experts from the Sakura Society this time. Cheng Yi was no match for them at all. In the wilderness suburbs, his mother was raped and killed, his father was seriously injured, and one of Cheng Yi's legs was cut off.
