After Zheng Jianhai and his son had left, Baldy Liu begged Zhang Xiaoshan again.
"Bro, I’ve settled this matter, and I won’t skimp on the necessary apologies. Please show rcy and spare this ti. I guarantee I won’t trouble you again."
Zhang Xiaoshan probed Baldy Liu’s intentions, realizing that after leaving yesterday, Baldy Liu had felt resentful and thought about retaliation; however, it was rely kindling, and Zheng Wen was the one who truly lit the fire, at least if Zheng Wen hadn’t gone to provoke Baldy Liu last night, today’s trouble wouldn’t have occurred. At this point, Baldy Liu was indeed admitting defeat.
Being an old hand in the underworld, he knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was not soone to be trifled with, and decided to concede.
"Fine, since you show so respect, give one hundred thousand yuan, and we’ll call it even today."
Zhang Xiaoshan threw his machete on the ground.
"You can take this."
Baldy Liu hurriedly pulled out a bank card from his pocket.
"This is my cut from the casinos I managed yesterday, exactly one hundred thousand. The PIN is six sixes, take it."
Baldy Liu truly felt the pinch, for one hundred thousand yuan could serve as the down paynt for a small two-bedroom apartnt in Wanshan County.
Zhang Xiaoshan unapologetically accepted it and pocketed it. This was indeed an unexpected gain.
With the two hundred thousand yuan he already had, he now had over three hundred thousand in savings, a sum besides the village chief and Luo ili, likely no one else in White Dragon Village could match.
Now he could lend money at high interest rates to Wu Yong’s family, but how should he go about this?
"Alright, you may go now."
Zhang Xiaoshan waved his hand, dismissing Baldy Liu.
Baldy Liu, feeling as if he had been granted an amnesty, fearing Zhang Xiaoshan might change his mind, quickly took his n and left.
Zhang Xiaoshan watched Baldy Liu’s retreating figure, deep in thought.
He had noticed yesterday that Baldy Liu was critically ill, so much so that he wouldn’t last a month before becoming gravely incapacitated...
"Baldy Liu, I see you’ve got so spirit in you, so take a piece of advice— you’re seriously ill. Avoid alcohol and promiscuity, and you might live a bit longer; otherwise, you’ll undoubtedly die within a month," he shouted at Baldy Liu.
Baldy Liu didn’t believe Zhang Xiaoshan’s words, taking them for a death threat from Zhang Xiaoshan, and hurried his steps even more.
"Big Brother, we’ve suffered a big setback today, and that kid even cursed you to die. Are we just going to let this go?"
A few hundred ters out and sure that Zhang Xiaoshan wasn’t following, one underling began to stir things up.
"What do you suggest we do?"
Baldy Liu, bloodied, asked the other.
The other replied,
"We must gather the boys and beat him up again."
"We have about a hundred underlings, right? I’ll leave them all to you. You take them and finish him. Do you dare?"
Officially, Baldy Liu was the manager of Sea Dragon KTV, but he was actually the underground boss, and the KTV was rely a front. Their main inco ca from shady dealings, so they had raised about a hundred thugs.
The underling, recalling Zhang Xiaoshan’s fierce deanor, felt nervous.
"Bro, that guy fought like he had nothing to lose, and even with a hundred people, it might be tough,"
"Dammit, you know that even with all of us combined, we can’t take him, then why the hell?" Baldy Liu, exasperated, slapped his underling, who then bowed his head in silence.
Baldy Liu said to his surrounding underlings,
"I’ve been in the ga for so long, and now I’ve capsized in the gutter. Dammit, I admit defeat. From now on, don’t provoke that kid. Also, anyone who dares to speak a word about today’s incident, I’ll kill you."
It was certainly too embarrassing an incident to spread around.
"Whew..."
Suddenly, a profusion of blood gushed from Baldy Liu’s nose.
"Big Brother, what’s wrong with you?"
The crowd was sowhat worried.
Baldy Liu was also feeling dizzy, but he still insisted,
"Nothing serious, probably just so aftereffects from that kid’s beating earlier."
"Right, bro, that kid said you’ve contracted a fatal illness, at death’s door already. Is it true?"
"How could that be? He’s probably just trying to scare ; let’s go,"
Baldy Liu, disbelieving, got into a car and left with his underlings.
...
Zhang Xiaoshan had also erged from the alley and quickly headed towards the entrance of the dical school.
Delayed by Liu and his n, the examination had already started over ten minutes ago.
The entrance to the dical school was under strict surveillance.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing a blood-soaked figure running towards them, the security personnel imdiately beca vigilant.
Zhang Xiaoshan, who had stains of the gangsters’ blood on him, which was indeed frightening, quickly explained,
"I’m not a criminal, I’m a candidate here to take the exam."
Saying this, Zhang Xiaoshan even handed over his exam admission ticket.
The security team leader took it and sized up Zhang Xiaoshan.
Initially intending to refuse Zhang Xiaoshan outright, but seeing his condition and not wanting to provoke him, he said,
"The exam has already started, wait a mont, I’ll make a phone call to have soone co handle this."
He then went to the guardhouse to make a call, leaving Zhang Xiaoshan waiting.
About five or six minutes later, a vibrant and youthful figure rushed from the direction of the classroom building toward the gate.
Her hair cascaded over her shoulders, dancing in the wind as she ran, like a fairy from a TV drama.
Light blue wide-leg jeans, white sneakers, and a white Korean-style jacket, both lively and intellectual.
Zhang Xiaoshan’s gaze was instantly captivated.
