"Hehe, I... my name is Fang Xiaohui." After the two introduced themselves, Tang Bing knew it was about time.
"Cough, cough... everyone, let’s head out!"
Tang Bing coughed, then spoke up.
Everyone nodded and began walking towards the bike shed at the school...
Not long after, two cars drove out of the campus, and about half an hour later, the group got a private room, settled down, ordered some drinks and food, and started chatting.
Counting everyone, there were exactly eight people at a large table, which was very much in sync. By this time, Liu Ting was sitting next to Chen Tianlong, while Tang Bing had voluntarily taken a seat next to Li Tianqing.
The two remaining friends saw everyone’s actions and smiled wryly, realizing they were probably the third wheels tonight.
But thankfully, Fang Xiaohui was next to them, although it seemed Fang Xiaohui had some interest in Yang Fan. But everyone loved beautiful women, and if they wanted to win her over, they had to be proactive, not just exchange glances.
So, the chubby Li Gui took the initiative and started chatting with Fang Xiaohui. Fang Xiaohui was naturally shy, and when someone chatted with her, she didn’t refuse, answering every question Li Gui asked.
After chatting for a while, the food and drinks arrived, and the boys filled their glasses and started drinking.
"Let’s have a toast to Brother Chen Tianlong, everyone."
At this point, Tang Bing suddenly laughed heartily and stood up. He used to be the leader among the three of them, but now he was willingly stepping down to be the second.
Chen Tianlong also smiled, raised his glass, and downed it in one go.
The three ladies nearby were a bit puzzled by the scene, especially Li Tianqing. She had never heard of Tang Bing having such a big brother, and as far as she knew, he was the big brother himself.
Looking at Chen Tianlong, who was dressed plainly, he didn’t seem like a rich young master. Tang Bing was a young master of the Tang Family; it didn’t make sense for him to be submitting to Chen Tianlong.
Even though the three girls didn’t know what was happening, they could clearly see that Tang Bing and the other two showed great respect to Chen Tianlong. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
"Tang Bing, what happened today? Why are all three of you toasting to Chen Tianlong?" Li Tianqing, whose curiosity was piqued the most, tugged lightly on Tang Bing’s sleeve and asked, puzzled.
Liu Ting and Fang Xiaohui, beside them, also looked curious.
Actually, Liu Ting knew Chen Tianlong a bit earlier than the others. In her view, Chen Tianlong was just an ordinary student, handsome but slightly thin. Why were Tang Bing and the others acting so respectfully towards him?
Hearing this, Tang Bing laughed heartily first, then recounted the events of that day in detail.
After listening to Tang Bing’s vivid description, Fang Xiaohui and the other two women looked at Chen Tianlong with disbelief. After all, they hadn’t heard of Chen Tianlong’s deeds, so they assumed Tang Bing was boasting and were clearly skeptical.
However, Chen Tianlong noticed that Liu Ting, sitting beside him, was very quiet. Others might not know Chen Tianlong’s prowess, but she did.
On that day in the alley, he fought dozens by himself, and they were armed with knives and guns. He handled them in the blink of an eye, showing he was a master.
Just as everyone was chatting away, the door to the private room was suddenly kicked open, and three people rushed in.
Among the three, Chen Tianlong recognized two—Zhou Qianghan and Hao Jian. The other one looked older, possibly in his forties, dressed in a suit. He appeared tall, robust, with a slightly sinister look but an impressive demeanor, definitely not someone ordinary.
"Chen Tianlong, we finally found you. Offending the Flying Eagle Gang, you still dare to drink here?" The speaker was Zhou Qianghan, who clearly had plenty of confidence today, not like the impulsive person he seemed before; it looked like he came prepared.
After a moment’s thought, Chen Tianlong’s gaze finally locked onto the middle-aged man.
Could it be, this is the expert Zhou Qianghan brought? Otherwise, with just Hao Jian and Zhou Qianghan, how could they make such a fuss?
"Zhou Qianghan, what are you here for?"
Seeing this scene, Chen Tianlong got a bit angry and replied coldly.
"The rest of you, this doesn’t involve you, get lost. Today, I’m only here to settle scores with Chen Tianlong." Zhou Qianghan waved his hand, ordering everyone else to leave.
"Damn, don’t think I’m scared of you just because you’re from the Hao Family. Chen Tianlong is my big brother. If you want to mess with him, you have to get through me first." Hearing this, Tang Bing was furious. The Hao Family might be powerful, but the Tang Family was not to be underestimated.
Behind him, Li Gui and Liang Chao also stood up.
"Sigh, young people are so impetuous."
At this moment, the burly man let out a sinister smile, walked over to the table, pulled out a chair, sat down leisurely, and said, "Chen Tianlong, I heard you beat up Hao Jian and Zhou Qianghan a few days ago. Is that true?"
"They brought it on themselves; if you don’t seek death, you won’t die!" Chen Tianlong replied coldly.
"Hehe, you are quite arrogant. No need to be tense, let me introduce myself, I’m Hao Kan!"
Before Chen Tianlong could react, Tang Bing and the others were instantly dumbfounded.
"Boss, this Hao Kan is the Hao Family elder’s brother. He learned martial arts at the Celestial Martial Sect since childhood. This guy is a bit tricky, you better be careful," Tang Bing quickly whispered to Chen Tianlong.
But these matters weren’t important to Chen Tianlong. Are the three masters of Celestial Martial Sect more skilled than my masters?
He really didn’t take this Hao Kan seriously.
However, he slightly nodded at Tang Bing’s friendly reminder.
"Hehe, what do I care what your name is?" Seeing the man introduce himself, Chen Tianlong found it amusing and replied, slightly playful.
"Kid, you’re quite cocky, aren’t you?" Hao Kan’s face twitched, and he kicked the chair in front of him, staring fiercely at Chen Tianlong ahead.
At this moment, Tang Bing and the others in the private room also burst out laughing.
Yet, Zhou Qianghan chuckled as he looked at everyone, knowing they were about to face big trouble.
"No, I’m just moderately cocky," Chen Tianlong calmly remarked.
Suddenly, Hao Kan jumped up, completely disregarding his image, here to cripple Chen Tianlong, avenge the Hao Family, and eliminate the Lin Family’s support.
"Chen Tianlong, you’re good, you’ve managed to anger me."
Hao Kan’s face flushed red, and he suddenly kicked at Chen Tianlong. Chen Tianlong frowned and swiftly jumped off his chair.
"Bang!" Hao Kan’s kick shattered the chair Chen just sat on into pieces, which was quite impressive.
Seeing this, Tang Bing and the muscular Liang Chao hurried over to protect Chen Tianlong. Holding beer bottles, they charged at Hao Kan without saying a word.
