70: Chapter 70: Using Power to Pressure Others_1 70: Chapter 70: Using Power to Pressure Others_1 Thank you to my “Eight Seconds of Memory” Brother for coming again, congratulations on becoming the “Helmsman,” Tianyu is very excited, thank you for your great support, brothers!
Jiang Xingwei’s words were downright aggressive, he clearly didn’t hold Li Changlin in any regard.
Facing this situation, Li Changlin felt extremely frustrated.
He raised his eyes to Jiang Xingwei and said coldly, “What exactly do you want!”
They say to lose gracefully rather than falter, now he was like a man with nothing to lose; if Jiang Xingwei really pushed him too far, he might as well fight it out with these guys!
“Very simple, either you give me one million, or let this woman spend the night with me!” Jiang Xingwei nonchalantly stretched out two fingers, looking at Li Changlin with a mocking expression.
Lin Ruonan was truly beautiful, and there was an indescribable quality about her that deeply attracted Jiang Xingwei.
“Why don’t you go die!” Upon hearing this, Li Changlin instantly became furious and couldn’t help but lift his foot, ready to kick Jiang Xingwei.
“Oh, my brother, don’t be so impulsive!” Although Gao Yuanming was also very angry, when he saw Li Changlin was about to start a fight, he quickly grabbed him.
There was no choice, Manager Song had already stepped in, if Li Changlin really started a fight, that would be a big incident.
“Gao Yuanming, tell your friend to calm down.” Even so, Manager Song’s face showed some displeasure.
He coldly glanced at Li Changlin, then turned to look at Jiang Xingwei and tentatively said, “Young Master Jiang, your demands are a bit too much, perhaps change your terms.”
“What, you want to stand up for him?” Jiang Xingwei’s mouth twisted into a sneer as he asked calmly.
“No, no, Young Master Jiang has misunderstood.” Manager Song quickly waved his hands, “I’m not getting involved in your matters.
It’s just that Gao Yuanming is, after all, an employee of our bar, and since Mr.
Li is acquainted with Gao Yuanming, my point is, let’s all not make this too ugly.”
“I’m very reasonable!” Jiang Xingwei spread his hands out, calmly stating, “They injured my brother, asking them to pay for the medical expenses is quite normal, right?
As long as they can come up with one million, I’ll definitely not make things difficult for them.”
“You’re sure they can’t come up with the money!” Manager Song was fully aware of what Jiang Xingwei was up to, but such thoughts were only to be kept to himself, definitely not to be voiced.
He felt somewhat helpless now and could only turn his head to look at Gao Yuanming.
Li Changlin was Gao Yuanming’s brother, and Manager Song was hoping Gao Yuanming could convince Li Changlin to deal with the situation for now.
“Li Changlin, what are your thoughts?” Though Jiang Xingwei asked for a steep price, Gao Yuanming didn’t believe this guy would really dare to extort so brazenly.
Even if two people were injured, the medical expenses wouldn’t possibly require one million.
If this matter were blown up, Jiang Xingwei could ultimately be accused of extortion.
Gao Yuanming also didn’t believe Jiang Xingwei was so foolish as to trap himself over a mere one million.
Just how stupid would one have to be to do such a thing!
“They’re not here for the money at all!” Li Changlin glanced at Gao Yuanming, Jiang Xingwei’s intentions were crystal clear, and it was a wonder that Gao Yuanming, who hung around nightclubs, couldn’t see it.
“Damn it!” Reminded by Li Changlin, Gao Yuanming suddenly recalled Jiang Xingwei’s second condition.
He couldn’t help but swear bitterly in his mind.
No wonder Gao Yuanming hadn’t thought more about it; he had assumed Jiang Xingwei and the others were just out to extort money!
“Young Master Wei, Young Master Wei!” Just then, a voice came from the entrance of the bar, and a burly man pushed through the crowd and rushed into the inner area.
“Peng Zai, I’m here.” The sound system in the bar had long been turned off, so Jiang Xingwei heard the call quite clearly and immediately raised his hand in response.
Peng Zai, whose real name is Peng Liangpeng, was Jiang Xingwei’s bodyguard.
Since he had not seen a few of his good brothers for a long time, and he was coming to a nightclub to have fun, Jiang Xingwei had not let Peng Liangpeng follow him inside.
But he hadn’t anticipated that because of his coveting Lin Ruonan’s beauty, he would get into a dispute with Li Changlin and come out the worse for it.
“Young Master Wei, what happened to you?
Who hit you?” Peng Liangpeng ran up and immediately saw the sorry state of Jiang Xingwei.
“That bastard, damn, he kicked me twice!” Jiang Xingwei had only called Peng Liangpeng over but hadn’t mentioned the fight.
Now that his backup had arrived, he obviously wanted to regain face.
Since Li Changlin was taking his time with a response, Jiang Xingwei naturally wasn’t going to be polite!
“Damn, you dare to hit Young Master Wei?
Looking to die, huh!” Peng Liangpeng’s face instantly darkened as he turned around and swung his fist toward Li Changlin’s head.
“Watch out, Changlin.” Gao Yuanming was standing on the outside of Li Changlin, closer to Peng Liangpeng.
Seeing the latter lash out suddenly, he quickly pushed Li Changlin aside.
Li Changlin was pushed away, but Gao Yuanming couldn’t escape the fate of being hit.
Peng Liangpeng’s fist connected squarely with him, instantly sending Gao Yuanming flying.
“Damn it, why hit me!” Gao Yuanming was pitiful, almost in tears.
Peng Liangpeng, being trained in martial arts, had at least two hundred pounds of force in that punch; Gao Yuanming really got the short end of the stick.
However, Peng Liangpeng didn’t care at all.
He frowned slightly and started stepping toward Li Changlin.
“Crap!” Li Changlin was a tough character too, and in this situation, he couldn’t back down.
Setting aside the fact that his good brother Gao Yuanming had just been hit by the other party, with Lin Ruonan standing right behind him, Li Changlin had no room for retreat.
So, he gritted his teeth and braced himself.
Even if he wasn’t a match for the guy, losing the fight didn’t mean he couldn’t take a fierce bite out of him!
In Li Changlin’s mind, he had made up his mind.
“Stop!” However, to everyone’s surprise, instead of staying behind Li Changlin, Lin Ruonan stepped out and placed herself in front of him.
“Ruonan!” Li Changlin called out sheepishly, his heart truly touched.
Man, how had he not noticed Lin Ruonan’s merits before!
Ah, it was all because of Xu Xin’s sugar-coated bullets.
At this moment, Li Changlin was actually distracted.
It wasn’t really his fault, though; although Lin Ruonan always acted tough like a man, she had never given Li Changlin such a shock before.
Shielded by Lin Ruonan’s petite body, Li Changlin couldn’t help but feel a surge of protectiveness.
What an awkward situation!
Li Changlin stole a guilty glance at Lin Ruonan.
Fortunately, at this moment, Lin Ruonan was facing Peng Liangpeng squarely, so naturally, she didn’t know Li Changlin was sneaking peeks at her.
“Get lost, I don’t hit women!” Peng Liangpeng stopped in his tracks and coldly looked toward Lin Ruonan.
“Go ahead, try hitting me if you dare!” Lin Ruonan was not easily frightened; she glared at Peng Liangpeng and sneered dismissively.
“Crap, you actually dare to scorn me!” Peng Liangpeng immediately flew into a rage and couldn’t help but wave his fists and roar, “Girl, if you know what’s good for you, step aside now.
Do you really want to make me raise my hand against you!”
