After paying the bill, Chu Ge didn't bother with the two Korean n across the table anymore. Amidst a variety of gazes, he called out to Song Baijia, picked up the suitcase, and left.
Chu Ge walked away leisurely—not exactly strutting but at least with steady steps. Even when he brushed past the two Korean n, he didn't avert his gaze. Song Baijia followed behind him, glancing nervously at the two Koreans. Even after they had walked quite a distance, he couldn't help but sneak a look back.
As they were leaving the booth area and about to go downstairs, a loud shout ca from behind, "Stop!"
Chu Ge halted his steps, turned back to et the eyes of the man with the short ponytail, slightly raised his chin, and smiled with an air of evil righteousness, "You need sothing else?"
The man with the short ponytail didn't speak, just kept his gaze fixed on Chu Ge's face.
Chu Ge waited for two seconds, snorted lightly, and continued to move on.
The manager sighed in relief. Finally, this troublemaker was leaving. He couldn't exactly say why, but he had a feeling that Chu Ge was even more dangerous than those Korean n.
As they stepped out of the Shangpin Barbecue doors, Chu Ge turned his head and smiled, "Brother Song, how full are you now?"
Song Baijia still seed a bit absent-minded. Hearing Chu Ge's voice, he hesitated a mont before awkwardly smiling, "I'm... about sixty percent full. Today, I originally wanted to welco you, but I didn't have enough money, and in the end, I made you pay. What a ss."
Saying this, Song Baijia took out a bunch of bills from his pocket and handed them to Chu Ge.
"Enough, put the money back. I've been saying I'll treat you to a al for ages. Are you trying to make look bad?"
Chu Ge rolled his eyes at Song Baijia and directly stuffed the bills back into his pocket. "Since you're not full, why don't we find another place to eat?"
"Well... alright, but this ti, you have to let treat you." Song Baijia nodded, hesitated for a mont, then looked back at Shangpin Barbecue, "Buddy, were you too harsh just now? The guy just wanted to share ten plates of at, why did you go so hard on him?"
"So people you just can't spoil, or else they'll really walk all over you." Chu Ge shrugged, "It's just that those two Koreans didn't explode. If they hadn't backed down, I'd have taken them on too."
"Instead of staying well-behaved in South Korea, why co to Hua Country and throw their weight around? It's really gotten them into trouble, especially that guy at the door earlier. He was the one who wasn't watching where he was going and bumped into you, yet acted like you were the problem. What's up with that?"
Song Baijia sighed slightly, "You can't really bla them. If I hadn't been distracted at the ti, I wouldn't have run into him, and none of this would have happened."
Seeing Song Baijia's self-bla, Chu Ge shook his head in anger and amusent.
"You're just too good-natured. If you keep never hitting back or talking back, you'll only end up being bullied by others. By the way, do you hold back because you can't control your strength and fear accidentally killing soone?"
Song Baijia awkwardly scratched his head, just about to speak when his steps faltered. With a look of bitterness, he sighed, "It seems they're coming after us, should we... should we run?"
"Run?" Chu Ge grinned, interlocking his fingers and stretching his arms outward, "I was just thinking about getting so exercise, why run?"
Song Baijia turned around and took a look. He hadn't misheard; those Koreans had indeed co out of the barbecue restaurant, approaching them with unfriendly expressions, and the errand boy Xiao Bai was among them, looking like a drowned rat with his wet head and clothes, having apparently taken a thorough rinse under a faucet.
"You're my brother, alright? Please stop causing trouble, we didn't suffer much, let's just run!"
Seeing Song Baijia's face full of pleading, Chu Ge sighed with exasperation, "Alright, alright, we'll run, run, run. You... sigh..."
Just as the two were about to run, two Jinbei vans suddenly burst from the street corner, and the headlights from the four vehicles shone directly into their eyes, making them squint reflexively.
Next, they saw the two Jinbei vans screech to a halt by the roadside. The car doors were yanked open with a "bang", and more than twenty fierce young n with all kinds of large tattoos jumped out of the cars. Then, following a sturdy man in a black tank top with a beard, they rushed toward Chu Ge.
Seeing this situation, already very nervous, Song Baijia beca even more nervous. Damn, what's going on now? The Koreans behind them were obviously aiming for him and Chu Ge, so why were these guys coming for them too?
Not only was Song Baijia dumbfounded, but the Koreans chasing them were also puzzled. They all stopped, crossed their arms, and started watching the commotion, especially translator Xiao Bai, whose gaze now held both resentnt and glee.
Ha! Haha! Interesting, this is really interesting! Seems like he doesn't even need his Korean companions to make a move, soone is already out to avenge him?
Chu Ge watched the bearded man rapidly approaching, slightly curling his lips. This man was none other than Bao Zhanhai, a trusted aide of Chen Jue, famously known as "Brother Leopard" in Lidu.
Chu Ge knew that Bao Zhanhai had always disliked him. Although Chen Jue habitually treated him with respect, Bao Zhanhai had long wanted to kill him. In this situation, he and Song Baijia might be facing enemies on both sides.
But it didn't matter; he never intended to run in the first place. If it's a fight, bring it on. Who's afraid of who?
"Tap, tap, tap..."
Accompanied by a series of dense footsteps, Bao Zhanhai ca face to face with Chu Ge, and suddenly shouted to his group of underlings behind him, "All of you, call him Master Chu!"
More than twenty underlings imdiately shouted in unison, "Master Chu!"
Chu Ge broke into a sweat, this situation... was a bit different from what he had imagined?
Song Baijia was even more confused; he had always known that Chu Ge knew a lot of officials and even the captain of the criminal police had to give Chu Ge face, but seeing the current scenario, it seed like Chu Ge also had connections with these people who were obviously part of the underworld?
The shout from more than twenty strong n, if not deafening, was certainly imposing, causing the South Korean group behind Chu Ge to frown.
Xiao Bai was utterly dumbfounded; damn, could it be that this group wasn't here to cause trouble for the kid? Instead... he was the one who called in reinforcents? Damn it, when did he make the call to gather people?
Although the South Korean group couldn't understand Chinese, from the current situation, they could roughly guess what was going on, leading them to look at each other in disbelief.
The leader of the South Korean group signaled to Xiao Bai, asking what the group was shouting, Xiao Bai was stunned for a few seconds before coming to his senses, hurriedly and nervously explaining the situation, and suggesting they retreat first.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Xiao Bai's explanation, the leader of the South Korean group showed no signs of tension or hesitation. Instead, he stroked his chin, a smile forming at the corners of his mouth, looking quite intrigued. After a brief shock, the other South Koreans also returned to their nonchalant expressions.
Being called "Master Chu" by these people, Chu Ge smiled wryly, "I say, Leopard brother, what ga are you playing with ?"
Bao Zhanhai imdiately replied, "Master Chu, please don't call that, I can't take that title from you. If you think of as soone worthy, just call 'Little Hai' or 'Haizi'. The things that happened before were all due to my ignorance; please don't hold it against . Zhanhai apologizes to you."
Bao Zhanhai's deanor was indescribably sincere and respectful, seeing him like this, Chu Ge was truly a little unaccustod, but it gave Song Baijia another scare.
He had already heard people around him ntion the na "Leopard Brother", especially that apprentice of his, every ti "Leopard Brother" Bao Zhanhai was ntioned, his eyes lit up with admiration, dreaming of joining "Leopard Brother's" ranks.
However... this "Leopard Brother" was actually so submissive in front of Chu Ge?
"Master Chu, those people behind... are they after you and this gentleman?"
Chu Ge smiled and replied with a simple "Mm", while Song Baijia took a mont to realize that "the gentleman" Leopard Brother referred to was him, leaving him a bit at a loss.
Just as Song Baijia was about to say sothing, he suddenly saw Bao Zhanhai striding towards the South Korean group, raising his right hand, and with a sudden sweep forward, shouting, "Grab your weapons! Go!"
Two strong n carrying large travel bags unzipped them with a loud zipping sound and tossed the travel bags onto the ground, making a clattering noise.
Inside these travel bags were an array of shiny blades and iron bars two-fingers thick. More than twenty strong n picked up these weapons, dragging their tips or ends along the ground, making a piercing screech, as they followed Bao Zhanhai towards the South Korean group.
"Oh my god!" Song Baijia was completely panicked, "Brother, you... you better say sothing! If they really start fighting, wouldn't it lead to deaths?"
Chu Ge smiled slightly, "Don't worry, they're all experienced, they know what they're doing. Those blades and iron sticks aren't easy instrunts to cause death with."
"Then... what do we do when the police co later?"
"By the ti the fight is over, it's unlikely the police will get here, and even if they do, it has nothing to do with us, right? Alright, no need to overthink, we can just enjoy the show from the sidelines."
"What exactly is going on here?"
"I'm not entirely sure right now either, let's watch and see what happens."
As he spoke, Chu Ge sat down on a bench by the street, crossing his legs, his gaze fixed on the South Korean group, while he faintly sensed that sothing was amiss.
Among them, except for the lackey Xiao Bai who was scared to the point of curling up and trembling on the side, the rest remained very calm.
Even though Bao Zhanhai's n outnumbered them by more than twice and were all ard, the South Korean group stood firmly in their spots, their expressions even carrying a hint of sarcasm and indifference.
Involuntarily, Chu Ge slightly furrowed his brows, this South Korean group... seed not to be simple?
