Jiang Cheng came to the downstairs of Longxing Sports and Entertainment Center with a car key in his hand. He walked to the side of a black car, opened the door, and got in. Then, he started the car and drove to Barter's villa.
While driving, Jiang Cheng recalled the situation just now. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. He just said that he was going to leave, but he didn't expect Alice to rush over and grab him. What's more, he didn't expect Alice to stumble and almost fall to the ground. Fortunately, he quickly ran two steps forward and held her so that she didn't fall to the ground.
However, although Alice didn't lie on the ground, her knees were on the ground. Suddenly, her delicate white skin was scratched, and blood flowed out. She burst into tears, crying very sadly.
Looking at Alice's sad crying, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt that his heart was about to break. He quickly found medical tools and personally bandaged her wound. He asked Katyusha and Chen Yiting to take good care of Alice. He also said a lot of good things in front of Alice, which temporarily calmed her down and allowed him to sneak out.
(Alice probably hasn't fallen since she was a child. She was a flower that was tightly protected in a greenhouse. If her father and sister knew that she was injured, they might kill me!) Jiang Cheng thought with a bitter smile.
The car that Jiang Cheng drove was borrowed from a brother of the Lung Hing Society. The purpose was to be less conspicuous. He and Barter's incident was better hidden to prevent people from secretly watching them.
After driving for about 30 minutes, Jiang Cheng quickly came to the villa where Barter lived. After parking the car and getting off, there were already people waiting for him. It was two bodyguards in black suits with serious expressions and vigilant eyes. They stood beside the garage and seemed to be waiting for him.
Jiang Cheng's eyes flashed. It seemed that today's meal was indeed different. He opened the door and got off the car. As soon as he got off, one of the bodyguards in black suits rushed towards him.
"Gang Leader Jiang, Master is already waiting for you in the dining hall. Please follow me." His words were very polite, but the smile on his face was very stiff, as if it was deliberately faked. After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the villa.
Jiang Cheng's gaze swept around, and his pupils slightly shrank. It was very strange. There were people squatting in every corner of the villa, and there were more than 20 of them. The security was much higher than the last time. This situation might mean that the safety of Barter of the Pallard Family was being seriously threatened!
Jiang Cheng wasn't worried that the people around him were targeting him, because these people didn't look at him with killing intent. Instead, they looked at him with admiration.
Could it be that these people also know that I assassinated Bordel? Or could it be that the news of him showing off his skills in the past has already spread among these guys?) Jiang Cheng was surprised and guessed in his heart.
Jiang Cheng followed the bodyguard into the villa and came to the dining hall. He found that there were already many people waiting here. The largest oval table was filled with all kinds of exquisite food. There were nine maids standing beside the table. Barter, Pelia, a slightly chubby middle-aged man, and two other handsome young men were sitting at the table. There were a total of five people sitting at the table.
Jiang Cheng didn't know the two handsome young men, nor had he seen them before. They had been looking at him with a faint smile since he came in, and their eyes were full of deep meaning. As for the middle-aged man, he recognized him. Pelia had introduced him to him during the banquet last time. He was Pelia and Alice's uncle. His name was Kennedy. It was said that he was one of the more trustworthy people in Barter's branch.
"You're here. Have a seat." Barter looked at Jiang Cheng and said indifferently.
Jiang Cheng didn't mind. Barter was known as the Raging Bull of the underworld. It was good enough that he could speak calmly. As for the attitude, it would be too stupid to be demanding. So, Jiang Cheng nodded with a smile and sat on the right side of the table, beside Pelia.
"It's 23 minutes and 47 seconds late from the time you said." Barter looked down at his watch and raised his head to look at Jiang Cheng with a slight reproach.
"I'm sorry. Because Alice wouldn't let me go, I was delayed a bit." Jiang Cheng said apologetically.
Barter's expression eased up and said with a smile, "I see. It's alright, no need to apologize."
After pausing for a moment, Barter smiled again and said, "I heard from Pelia that Alice is living a happy life. Because of some special reasons, her physique has improved a lot. Thank you very much, Mr. Jiang Cheng." Barter looked at Jiang Cheng with sincerity. These words came from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said with a smile, "I treat Alice as my sister. As long as it's something I can do for her, I won't hesitate. There's no need to thank me. My actions are only out of my own will. There's no need to thank me. But why did you ask me to come here for a meal?" Jiang Cheng asked while looking at the two young men on the opposite side of the table.
Pelia had told him on the phone that she would introduce someone to him. It should be one of the two young men on the opposite side.
The two young men in front of him were both in their mid-twenties. One of them was dressed more casually, but he was dressed in branded clothes from head to toe. The other was dressed in tight-fitting clothes that made him look thin and capable. There was a hint of sharpness in his eyes, and he should be a bodyguard. Both of them showed an expression of interest, and their gazes kept moving between Jiang Cheng's body.
"I'll introduce someone to you and we can also reach an agreement." Barter pointed at the young man in casual clothes and said, "This is from the Purton Family from England. He's also one of the three people most likely to become the future head of the Purton Family. His name is Chasmin. The person next to him is his bodyguard."
"Purton Family!" Jiang Cheng couldn't help but murmur. Then, his expression slightly changed. He grabbed the dagger on his waist. The Purton Family had made killing him one of the conditions to become the head of the family. Now that he met someone who had a 1/3 chance of inheriting the position of the future head of the Purton Family, how could he remain indifferent?
Chasmin's bodyguard wasn't an ordinary person. As soon as Jiang Cheng moved, he seemed to have felt a murderous aura. He took out his pistol and raised his hand to aim at Jiang Cheng. When Jiang Cheng saw his action, he threw the dagger in his hand and stabbed it into his throat. A massacre was inevitable!
"Stop!" Barter shouted angrily. His voice was like a thunderclap in everyone's ears.
Barter had been in a high position for many years. He was used to speaking in a commanding tone. Plus, he had a hot temper. That was why people in Europe gave him the name – Black Bull. Now that he suddenly roared, it really shocked Jiang Cheng and the bodyguard. Although they were still holding weapons in their hands, no one took the initiative to attack.
"Medella, put down your weapon!" Chasmin shouted to the bodyguard next to her. The young man called Medella hesitated for a moment, then he snorted and put the pistol back on his waist.
Jiang Cheng held the dagger in his hand, still maintaining a high degree of vigilance. He slowly put the dagger back on his waist, but his hand was still on the handle to ensure that he could attack again at any time. The opponent was using a gun. If he wanted to be one step ahead, he had to do this! And he had a hunch that this bodyguard named Medella wasn't a third-rate person. He was very strong! And he had a trace of murderous aura. It was the coldness of someone who had killed many people!
"I'm really sorry." The young man, Chasmin, smiled and said to Jiang Cheng, "My bodyguard is too easily agitated. If he has been rude, please forgive him."
This Chasmin isn't a simple person either. At the very least, he's shrewd enough to not show his emotions. And he's so young … Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat. The Purton family actually had such a person. If he became the patriarch of the Purton family and wanted revenge, it would be very troublesome!
"Gang Leader Jiang, you don't have to be wary. I'm not here for revenge today. I just want to talk to you about cooperation," Chasmin continued smiling and said slowly in a calm tone.
"Cooperation?" Jiang Cheng was really surprised this time. He had killed the former patriarch of the Purton family, but this Chasmin didn't come to him for revenge, but for cooperation?
"Yes." Chasmin smiled and nodded.
"Don't you want to avenge Podder? I heard that the Purton family has made taking revenge on me a must for the selection of the new patriarch. " Jiang Cheng also smiled and said slowly, "But I'm really wronged. I don't know what evidence the Purton family has to say that I'm the murderer. At that time, I was busy at the port in District 19 … "
Chasmin shook his head and interrupted Jiang Cheng. "Gang Leader Jiang, let's not talk about this anymore. The person who appeared in District 19 in your place is called Zhang Jie, right? Our family already has this information."
"Hehe." Jiang Cheng chuckled. Since the truth had been revealed, he became a little more calm. He placed his hand on the table and held his chin with one hand as he glanced sideways at Chasmin and asked, "Then I want to know, why didn't you take revenge on me? Yet, you proposed cooperation. What's there to cooperate with? "
Jiang Cheng's current attitude was a little like a ruffian. He was casual and indifferent like a street thug. He looked like he was saying, "I'm like this. What do you want?" He was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Chasmin's smile became a little helpless. She coughed twice and asked with the corners of her mouth curled up, "Why do I want revenge? If Podder hadn't died, I wouldn't have the chance to become the patriarch. Speaking of which, I have to thank you. Frankly, even if Gang Leader Jiang didn't make a move, I was planning to kill him soon. "There was a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.
