Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Two Strangers
"Yufei... what’s wrong?"
Chen Tianlong paused, asking sowhat curiously.
"It’s nothing... I’ll go attend to the guests."
Feeling it’s hard to explain, Zhang Yufei knew Chen Tianlong was just a student and couldn’t really help her with anything.
Chen Tianlong chuckled wryly, shook his head, and returned to the table with a glass of red wine. The three of them chatted idly as they waited for the al to be served.
After a while, two people arrived. They looked unfamiliar, yet dressed in fashion and leather shoes. Chen Tianlong glanced at them casually and didn’t greet them.
"So many seats are empty here, if we take a spot, should be all right?" One of the strangers, slightly handso, said politely.
Chen Tianlong smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Sure, no problem, this table can seat eight people."
"Hehe, thank you!"
The handso man smiled slightly at Chen Tianlong.
However, the man next to him appeared more stern, possessing a peculiar aura that imdiately put Chen Tianlong on alert.
Recognizing faces is an assassin’s signature move; they can identify the good or bad among special individuals.
The stern man beside the handso guy clearly had the natural deanor of an assassin or soone with a very aloof personality, which regular people couldn’t fake.
According to Chen Tianlong’s judgnt, if soone with a solitary personality appeared in such a setting, it wouldn’t happen; after all, this is a party and soone aloof wouldn’t co just for a al.
The remaining possibility is that this person has issues, possibly an assassin!
But this is just Chen Tianlong’s speculation, not necessarily aning the person is an assassin. He was already cautious in his heart.
Once they sat down, the handso guy went to the wine table and returned with two glasses of wine. Yet, both of them rely took a sip and put the wine aside, never touching it again.
They seed sowhat bored but kept looking at their watches as if waiting for sothing.
Suddenly, a voice startled Chen Tianlong and also made the two strangers look rather pale.
"Chen Tianlong, I’m back!"
The speaker was none other than Chief Zhao Bing.
Shortly after, two young n arrived, and Chen Tianlong saw they were Zhang Yufei’s colleagues, Deputy Captain Zhou Qiang and colleague Li Jun.
Suddenly, the eight-seat table was surrounded and very lively.
The two strangers turned pale for a reason; hearing Chen Tianlong’s na, they imdiately recalled the formidable figure Hao Shuai spoke of.
Those two were from the Celestial Wolf Gang, experts from the Capital City.
Today’s task was mainly to eliminate Zhang Yufei and these police officers for a simple reason: their fourth and fifth in command were captured by the police, and even the third barely escaped death.
This ti they were ordered by the boss to complete the task.
And this Chen Tianlong, along with Chief Zhao Bing, managed to eliminate their sixth and seventh in command, thus becoming a major obstacle to this mission.
Probably, Hao Shuai didn’t expect this either.
Zhao Bing’s appearance might be within Hao Shuai’s expectations, but not Chen Tianlong’s.
Yet, at such a mont, they couldn’t go outside to make a call or have any conspicuous movents; it would easily draw attention, especially with so many police officers here who weren’t easily fooled.
"Are these two your friends?"
Zhao Bing looked at the two strangers in front, older than Chen Tianlong and the others, and asked with so suspicion.
"Ah? Oh, no, they just arrived, probably invited guests of the party." Chen Tianlong replied directly.
However, from his prior observation, Chen Tianlong was already highly suspect, clearly seeing these two were not ordinary guests.
Since arriving, they never left, and rely took a sip of wine, seemingly afraid of getting drunk.
Therefore, Chen Tianlong’s initial caution turned into high alert, making them potentially dangerous figures. This was Zhang Yufei’s birthday party, and the ultimate target was most likely Zhang Yufei.
Though Zhang Yufei and Chen Tianlong weren’t related, they had shared life-and-death experiences together. If anything happened to Zhang Yufei, Chen Tianlong would feel troubled by it.
Sure enough, the two strangers seed uneasy, rely pretending to drink but not daring to drink much. Chen Tianlong’s lips curled slightly, grasping the situation. Although he didn’t know their exact motives, they certainly weren’t good guys.
"Yang Fan, Zhao Lei, you guys stay here, I’m heading to the restroom first."
Chen Tianlong suddenly stood up and said.
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Zhao Lei waved his hand nonchalantly, while Yang Fan, true to his foodie nature, was too lazy to speak and waited for the food to arrive.
Chen Tianlong stood up and quickly headed to the restroom, pulling out his phone. Shortly after, Zhao Bing’s phone in his pocket by the table rang, making him pause.
But Zhao Bing wasn’t an ordinary person; as Chief, his responsiveness was strong. Chen Tianlong’s call right after leaving signaled that speaking here wasn’t convenient, needing a change of location.
"Sorry everyone, I need to take this call; it’s a bit noisy here."
Zhao Bing found an excuse and left his seat. Indeed, it was a good excuse, as it was very noisy and crowded, with no choice.
The two strangers didn’t suspect a thing, continuing to wait while occasionally checking their watches. The others didn’t notice anything, focused on their own activities.
Yang Fan was quiet, constantly eating and rarely speaking, whereas Zhao Lei was a chatterbox, talking while eating to the two police officers.
About five minutes later, Chen Tianlong returned to his seat, followed by Zhao Bing two minutes later, who ca back smiling, saying, "Oh dear, I rushed out today and forgot to explain to my wife, who called to inquire."
"Haha, Chief, your wife really keeps you in line." Zhou Qiang joked.
"Of course, our Chief is handso and charming, admired by many girls. If your wife doesn’t keep watch, what if sothing happens?"
Li Jun stoked the flas.
"Co on, can you guys stop being so an? Watch out, I’ll rate you low and see how much bonus you get next month." Zhao Bing threatened.
"No, Chief, I was wrong."
"I was wrong too, please forgive ."
The two were shocked and quickly pleaded.
"Haha, alright, I’m a kind Chief who generally doesn’t bully my subordinates." Zhao Bing said, raising his wine glass, "Rarely do we gather around the table, it’s fate, let’s drink."
"Okay, let’s drink."
Chen Tianlong understood Zhao Bing’s intention, wanting to probe those two strangers.
Sure enough, everyone drank their wine at once, while the two strangers rely took a sip and set it down.
