Bruce Lee had a splitting headache as if he was being roasted by fire.
He had never thought that a casual decision would have such a profound impact on his entire life.
He knew that these people's target was Fang Yan. He only needed to stand up and say that he had nothing to do with Fang Yan. He didn't understand how Fang Yan came in. Then, he didn't need to do anything. Fang Yan would be politely asked to leave by the club's security.
But what if he did that? Where would the spirit of Swallow Dock be? Where would his reputation be? Where would his own spirit and reputation be?
When he returned to Swallow Dock, he would be criticized by the elders in the village, and the teacher would use his shovel to beat his head.
However, if he didn't accept the Jiang family's suggestion and insisted on standing on Fang Yan's side, it would be difficult for him to do anything in Yan Jing City in the future. All the achievements he had made in Yan Jing City and the connections he had built would collapse. All his efforts and achievements over the years would vanish.
Because they had offended the Jiang family, which no one wanted to offend. Perhaps some people would care about their friendship with him, but they cared more about the living conditions of the family.
This was the law of business, both real and realistic.
Besides, even if he stood up to protect Fang Yan and told everyone here that he brought Fang Yan in … would he be able to protect him?
Fang Yan didn't receive an invitation. He knew that, and many people here knew it. The person who helped to smooth things over also knew it. As long as the Jiang family was willing, they could even drive Fang Yan and himself out together … Bruce Lee alone couldn't protect Fang Yan.
The reason why the Jiang family didn't directly go to the club to deal with this matter was not to save Bruce Lee's face. They didn't care about Bruce Lee's face.
They let Bruce Lee deal with this matter because they wanted him to make a choice between standing on the side or sacrificing himself. Choosing to sacrifice Fang Yan or … everything he had.
More importantly, Fang Yan was driven out by his own people. This kind of humiliation was much more serious than being pushed out by the Jiang family.
If Fang Yan was chased away by a single sentence from the General family, he would never be able to raise his head in this particular circle for a very long time.
Everyone was looking at Bruce Lee. Everyone was waiting for him to make a decision.
It was a decision that would change the lives of Fang Yan and Bruce Lee.
At least, that was what they thought.
"What's the big deal?" Someone sneered.
Fang Yan strode toward Jiang Junling. When he passed by Bruce Lee, he gratefully patted him on the shoulder and said guiltily, "Brother Xiao Long, I'm really sorry … for making things difficult for you today."
Jiang Yi Rong was about to speak, but found that Fang Yan had already walked past her. He wasn't interested in talking to her. He didn't even look at her.
Jiang Yi Rong gritted his teeth and sneered: "You're courting death. There was no one to blame. Bruce Lee, don't learn from this idiot! "
Fang Yan stood in front of Jiang Junling. The bodyguards behind him wanted to make a move, but Jiang Junling waved his hand to stop them.
In this place, Fang Yan didn't dare to make a move.
Even if Fang Yan touched a strand of his hair, he had a way to throw Fang Yan into prison and make him spend the rest of his life in prison.
Bao Shi 'er, the Xingyi Grand Master who had fought with Fang Yan in Huacheng, stood behind Jiang Junling and looked at Fang Yan with a playful look. The Hanged Ghost Fisherman, who had an old relationship with Fang Yan's grandfather Fang Huwei, also stood behind Jiang Junling. He wore sunglasses and looked around. No one knew what he was thinking.
There were also two strange-looking men staring at Fang Yan with inquiring or fanatical eyes. They had all heard about the battle between Fang Yan and Bao Shi 'er in Huacheng and were very curious about the young warrior Fang Yan. If it weren't for their status, they would have stood up and challenged Fang Yan.
Fang Yan was surprised and thought that it was logical. The tigress in camouflage clothes stood next to Jiang Junling. She seemed to have a high status. When she saw Fang Yan looking at her, she took the initiative to greet Fang Yan and said: "Little handsome, we meet again. I said, don't forget my name … You won't disappoint me, will you? "
"Miss Tigress." Fang Yan greeted the tigress gracefully and said with a smile: "How can I forget such a charming lady?"
"You have a sweet mouth. I didn't dote on you for nothing." The tigress giggled and said, her chest heaving up and down. It was very eye-catching.
Fang Yan looked at Jiang Junling with gentle eyes and a calm expression and said: "I apologize to you."
Hua …
The audience was in an uproar!
Everyone looked at Fang Yan in shock. Some were laughing, some were mocking him, but most of them looked like they were deep in thought or understood.
"This idiot finally can't bear the pressure, right? Fighting with the Generals, he doesn't even know who he is. "
"A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin. Jiang Junling didn't say a word, and a random kid can make Fang Yan stand up and apologize to him … Jiang Junling really lives up to his reputation."
"Apologizing is what a smart person does. What can that kid do if he doesn't admit defeat? Ask for money? He doesn't. Ask for people? He doesn't either. What right did he have to fight against the General Order? Jiang Junling doesn't need to do anything, his people can take care of things properly … "
There was a lot of discussion below the stage, but the little fellows of Swallow Dock looked at Jiang Junling with a strange expression, as if they were looking forward to the start of a big show.
Jiang Junling adjusted his glasses and looked at Fang Yan thoughtfully.
When Fang Yan walked towards him, he calculated in his mind three choices and 19 ways to start, but he didn't expect it to be this one.
Isn't this guy very unyielding?
"I apologize to you." Fang Yan said aloud again. "Just like the rumors in Beijing, we did have some unpleasantness in Huacheng. You tried to plot against me, but I bullied you instead. You found a dog to stir up trouble, and I beat the dog until it lay on the ground and couldn't get up. "
Fang Yan pointed to Xing Yi Grandmaster Bao Shi 'er behind Jiang Junling and said, "Bao Shi' er, the king of Xing Yi. You asked him to challenge you, and he's very strong. He made me use a lot of force, but I still knocked him out. "
Wow …
Shocked voices came from the venue again.
Many people knew that there were many martial arts masters around Jiang Junling. These people were very strong and could fight against a hundred. Especially those who he brought with him to various large gatherings, they were all grandmasters.
Even such masters were knocked out by Fang Yan, so how powerful was Fang Yan?
Some people thought of their cold and dismissive attitude towards him just now. If he attacked in anger, it would be difficult for them to resist, right?
Bao Shi 'er's face turned purple, and his body trembled with anger. He wanted to fight to the death with Fang Yan on the spot.
Too hateful!
Too shameless!
This is too much!
Don't hit people in the face. You're not hitting the face, but the heart.
Jiang Junling's face didn't change, and there was even a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
Yes, this was the Fang Yan he knew. This was what his old friend, who he missed day and night … should do.
He wasn't apologizing, he was … provoking.
"Fang Yan." This time, even Xia Xia couldn't help but stand up to stop Fang Yan. She knew what Jiang Junling represented, and how much power the Jiang family had. She was worried that Fang Yan would act out of loyalty, and that he would face more disasters in the future.
She admired the brave, but she was more willing to applaud those who knew when to advance and when to retreat.
Fang Yan looked back and patted her on the arm. He said with a smile, "It's okay. Jiang Junling and I are old friends. Some words have to be said face to face … Friends should be honest with each other. "
"I apologize to you." Fang Yan said this for the third time. "Why should I resist? If you want to bully me, I'll let you bully me. If you want to beat me up, I'll let you beat me up. If you want to kill me, I'll let you kill me as long as you leave my body intact … Why should I resist? "
"It doesn't matter if I resist, but I found that Jiang Junling is only so-so. His wisdom and schemes, which are praised by others, are like child's play. His ace bodyguard, which is envied by others, is also a peerless expert. It turns out that the General's Order that everyone fears is a paper tiger … Yes, I should apologize to you. I shouldn't have broken this paper tiger. "
General Xing couldn't bear it anymore. He jumped out and shouted, "Fang Yan, you don't know what's good for you … We give you face, but you don't want it. When we don't give you face, you won't be able to cry even if you want to."
Fang Yan glanced at General Xing and said, "Don't be in a hurry to jump out and show off. You're the happiest person here, aren't you? You've been secretly setting up your brother again and again. Jiang Junling is such a smart guy. Doesn't he know? He's just pretending to be stupid. When he suddenly becomes serious with you, you'll know how stupid what you've done before is … If you don't have the wisdom of Zhuge Liang, don't pretend to be a hermit. "
"Slander." General Xing's face was frighteningly gloomy.
Fang Yan's eyes turned back to Jiang Junling's face and said, "Yes, you have money, power, and connections. Yan Jing is your home ground, Hua Xia is your home ground, the whole world is your home ground … I admit that I don't have as much money as you, power as you, and connections as you. I'm a small character, and you're a big character. No matter where you are, you have all the advantages. "
"But, I must resist. I have no choice but to resist. " Fang Yan said in a long-winded manner. He was patiently explaining one thing, although such an explanation would only cause more misunderstanding and hatred. "I'm my mother's son. My mother only has me. If I'm bullied, she'll be unhappy. If I'm beaten, she'll be very sad. If I'm killed, she'll want to die … I don't want my mother to worry about me. I can't let my mother be disappointed in me. Whose parents won't worry if their child is bullied outside? "
