89: Chapter 89: You’re Giving Him a Strip Dance
Lin Fei, having been through the baptism of war, once he steeled his expression, that dense, almost tangible killing intent surged forth like tides, unabashedly assailing Elder Wei.
Elder Wei, in his youth, had also taken many lives and was naturally no stranger to the aura of death.
However, this was the first ti he encountered a surging killing intent like Lin Fei’s, and he could not help but have his expression drastically change.
After all, this place was near Rose Manor, and the two of them standing here in the late night was soon noticed by scouts belonging to Rose Manor.
At once, several mbers of Thorny Rose moved towards their position.
“Who are you?
What are you doing here?”
From a distance, mbers of Thorny Rose called out to them.
Seeing that neither man responded, the approaching mbers of Thorny Rose drew their guns.
Upon nearing the two and recognizing Elder Wei’s face, these scouts from Thorny Rose all showed due respect and called out in unison, “Elder Wei.”
Elder Wei, however, did not acknowledge them.
Regaining his composure, his tiger-like eyes chilled as he said with a cold voice, “Lin, do you an to declare war on my Thorny Rose?!”
The speaker was unwitting, but the listener was intentional.
Hearing Elder Wei’s words, the Thorny Rose mbers by his side instantly focused their gaze on Lin Fei.
Several guns were simultaneously aid at Lin Fei’s head, and two scouts stepped in to shield Elder Wei, their stance as if facing a formidable enemy.
Thorny Rose was, after all, one of the three major gangs in Zhonghai.
Only the heads of the other two major gangs had the right to declare war on Thorny Rose.
If it were an ordinary person, even soone like Qiao Hui, the leader of the Hawk Group who tested Lin Fei in the hospital room last ti, claiming that Lin Fei was qualified to declare war on Thorny Rose, these scouts would likely not take it seriously.
However, the person speaking was Elder Wei.
They had no choice but to believe him because, in the underworld of Zhonghai, Elder Wei was a legend!
In the hearts of the Thorny Rose mbers, Elder Wei’s status was akin to Lin Fei’s in the Hell’s Judgent Organization, even surpassing it, perhaps.
Especially after seeing the blood at the corner of Elder Wei’s mouth, these scouts from Thorny Rose were even more convinced.
Two of them, particularly terrified, even pulled out their mobile phones, ready to call for backup.
“Get the fuck back, all of you, and don’t embarrass
here!”
Seeing the Thorny Rose scouts acting as if they faced a big threat, guns and bodyguards ready, treating him like a giant panda to be protected – and what’s worse, so even pulled out their phones intending to call for backup – Elder Wei beca furious on the spot, flailing his dragon-head cane and sending several Thorny Rose scouts running with heads in their hands.
Having struggled in the underworld of Zhonghai for decades, Elder Wei naturally could tell that Lin Fei had no intention of starting a war with Thorny Rose.
His comnts were rely intended to bolster his own position to lower Lin Fei’s demands.
After all, he and Xue i had indeed set a trap at the ‘Banquet of Hongn’ and intended to make things difficult for Lin Fei.
Now that Lin Fei had the power to break free from the trap, if they wanted to ease relations with Lin Fei, it was natural that they would have to pay a price.
There are no permanent friends or enemies, only permanent interests – of this, Elder Wei was clear.
But these ddleso scouts from Thorny Rose ran out causing a stir, seemingly planning to encircle and kill Lin Fei.
If Elder Wei, having been defeated by Lin Fei’s hand, allowed Thorny Rose mbers to attack Lin Fei and word got out, then Elder Wei’s good reputation would be utterly gone.
What’s more pressing was offending Lin Fei, this terrible star.
Lin Fei was able to infiltrate Rose Manor at will and had defeated Elder Wei head-on.
If they managed to kill Lin Fei in the encirclent, that would be one thing, but if Lin Fei were to counter-kill them or escape, then the people of Rose Manor could forget about living in peace ever again.
Any night, they might just get their heads chopped off in their sleep.
Given this, Elder Wei naturally would not let the scouts from Thorny Rose further offend Lin Fei.
That would be like pushing the entire Thorny Rose into a pit of fire.
Imdiately, after getting rid of a few scouts from Thorny Rose, Elder Wei could no longer afford to beat around the bush with Lin Fei and steadied his mind before saying, “Lin, what exactly is that striptease you ntioned?
The Chairman, oh, that girl Xue i, to my knowledge, I don’t think she knows how to dance, does she?”
Lin Fei’s jaw nearly dropped in shock.
He never expected Elder Wei to co out with such a statent.
“What kind of dance is a striptease?” Only soone with nerves as big as Elder Wei’s could ask such a question.
If it were possible, Lin Fei really wanted to ask back, “Are you trying to challenge my ability to keep a straight face?”
Still, Lin Fei was Lin Fei after all.
He keenly realized that it seed Elder Wei was not joking or teasing him, but genuinely did not understand the concept of a striptease.
Indeed, Lin Fei’s judgnt was right – Elder Wei truly did not understand the aning of a striptease.
Elder Wei was even older than Mu Shanshan’s father.
When he was young, society wasn’t as open as it is now; there were none of these ssy terms.
Realizing that Elder Wei was not pretending to be ignorant, Lin Fei thought to himself that there was much that could be done with this.
“Old man, to be honest, my relationship with little i is sowhat complicated.
But, there’s one thing I can assure you of, I don’t have as much hostility towards her as you might imagine.”
Having understood the key here, Lin Fei’s deanor suddenly improved, switching to his usual joking and smiling face, as he stepped forward to support Elder Wei.
Elder Wei had been contemplating what price to pay to smooth things over with Lin Fei, but Lin Fei suddenly beca amiable, apparently not as difficult to deal with as imagined.
There’s an old saying, “One doesn’t strike the smiling face that reaches out.” Lin Fei, smiling and actively approaching, with Elder Wei himself being intent on easing their relationship, naturally did not fail to show Lin Fei kindness.
Especially when Lin Fei ntioned that apparently, there wasn’t much conflict between him and Xue i, which greatly relieved Elder Wei.
“What’s the deal with that striptease?”
With Lin Fei’s support, Elder Wei took the lead towards the interior of Rose Manor, asking as they walked.
“Actually, it’s just a kind of trendy dance.
Last ti, by the swimming pool at the back of her villa, she danced it for .
It’s just that I said sothing inappropriate that ti, which made her unhappy.
I thought, if I let her dance for
again and say so nice things to coax her, the matter would be over.
I didn’t expect that she would still trouble you, sir.”
Lin Fei glossed over the incident where he saw Xue i completely stripped, and with his explanation, Elder Wei, who had little experience in these matters, was completely taken in.
“You young people, why can’t you communicate properly?
It’s just a dance, and you make such a big deal out of it.
Really, I don’t know what to say about you!”
Elder Wei chastised them with a sense of regret, aiming not only at Lin Fei but also at Xue i.
Poor Chairman Xue i had hoped that Elder Wei would capture Lin Fei for her to deal with.
She had even thought about how she would dispose of Lin Fei, especially his eyes and mouth—this woman had considered more than a dozen ways to do it.
No matter how imaginative Xue i was, she couldn’t have guessed that Elder Wei, who had watched her grow up and pushed her to the throne of Thorny Rose, would be swayed by Lin Fei.
So much so that when Xue i saw Lin Fei supporting Elder Wei into the villa, she was completely stunned.
She had envisioned many outcos of the competition between Lin Fei and Elder Wei.
She even thought that Elder Wei might be defeated or seriously injured.
Of course, she thought more about Elder Wei capturing Lin Fei, dragging him into the villa for her to dispose of.
The only thing she didn’t expect was that Lin Fei would be entering the villa, supporting Elder Wei.
What was going on here, friends through a fight?
Xue i was a bit at a loss.
Elder Wei had already wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth when he entered Rose Manor with Lin Fei’s help.
Therefore, although Xue i could see that sothing was off about Elder Wei, she would never have imagined that Elder Wei was vomiting blood because of Lin Fei.
“Elder Wei, you…”
“What about ?
Why are you standing around?
Haven’t you hurried to check on the tea yet?”
Under Lin Fei’s misguidance, Elder Wei completely misunderstood Xue i.
Thinking that her caprice had caused him and Lin Fei to fight in vain, Elder Wei naturally had no good feelings towards Xue i.
If it had been anyone else from Thorny Rose making such a mistake, causing Elder Wei to vomit blood, they would probably have been taken out back and shot by now.
Xue i didn’t realize that she had been played by Lin Fei, but being in charge of the vast organization Thorny Rose, she still had the basic ability to read expressions and moods.
Seeing Elder Wei’s displeasure, Xue i quickly picked up the Purple Sand Pot and poured him a fresh cup of tea.
“With all due respect, Elder Wei, I’m thoroughly convinced by my loss.”
Lin Fei praised Elder Wei at the right ti, giving him both a peace of mind and a burst of happiness.
But a sly fox is a sly fox, even though Lin Fei hadn’t clued Elder Wei in beforehand, Elder Wei’s face didn’t betray a single flaw as he picked up his teacup, smiling, “We both held back, never going all out; it couldn’t be considered a real fight.”
Elder Wei’s response was brilliantly calculated, maintaining his image in front of Xue i without appearing arrogant.
“Chairman, as there are no outsiders today, I won’t stand on ceremony, and I don’t think it’s inappropriate to address you as ‘Little i’.”
Lin Fei flattered him, and naturally, Elder Wei knew how to return the favor.
“Elder Wei, how could you say that?
In front of you, I’m forever the junior.
I’d be more than happy if you disregarded such formalities.”
Although Xue i wanted to remind Elder Wei that Lin Fei was still an outsider there, out of respect for Elder Wei, she chose to temporarily forget about Lin Fei.
“That’s good to hear.
Lin Fei has told
all about the situation between you two.
After I leave later, you can dance that striptease for Lin Fei again.”
Xue i was stupefied.
If these words had co from Lin Fei’s mouth, she wouldn’t have found it strange, as she had witnessed his shalessness many tis.
However, these words ca from the mouth of Elder Wei, whom she respected most, and in that mont Xue i felt as if her entire world had collapsed.
Xue i was dazed, but Lin Fei was very much aware.
As soon as Elder Wei finished speaking, Lin Fei quickly found his mont, “You’ve been busy all night, sir, and you must be tired.
These matters between us are trivial; you needn’t worry about them.
You should hurry back and rest.”
“That sounds good, I won’t disturb you two anymore.”
With that, Elder Wei stood up with Lin Fei’s support and walked towards the exit of the villa.
