Yuan Huai wouldn’t believe what Xiang Yu said. He had gotten to know Xiang Yu a bit by now, and this guy would lie on the fly without a second thought.
They exchanged a few casual words about other matters before Yuan Huai left for Hong Jinbao’s room.
Hong Jinbao was Yuan Huai’s godfather. Ever since returning here, Yuan Huai had many feelings he wanted to share with Hong Jinbao.
As soon as he entered Hong Jinbao’s room, he was hit by a strong sll of alcohol, and Hong Jinbao was sprawled on the bed, intending to sleep.
Seeing Yuan Huai enter, Hong Jinbao quickly got up and cursed, "That bastard Xiang Yu is inhuman."
Yuan Huai was puzzled. What was going on? Could it be that Xiang Yu didn’t drink but got them drunk instead?
"That damn guy’s drinking is like a bottomless pit. We were all fooled by him initially," Hong Jinbao explained, recounting the earlier events.
After listening, Yuan Huai was left speechless and realized that Xiang Yu had been telling the truth all along.
They talked about many things, most revolving around Xiang Yu and the imnse impact he’d had on them.
After leaving Hong Jinbao’s office, Yuan Huai returned to his room to rest; nothing was happening today.
Around ten o’clock that night, Yuan Huai was just about to fall asleep when soone knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Yuan Huai asked.
There was no response from outside, and the knocking resud.
Yuan Huai beca cautious. He used to be the Vice Sect Leader of the Hongn and had offended people here before. Was soone coming to harm him?
He carefully got up and looked outside through the peephole. He saw a cold and beautiful face—it was Leng Chan.
Yuan Huai was confused about why she would co to see him. He opened the door and stood there awkwardly.
"Not inviting in?" Leng Chan asked.
Yuan Huai gave an awkward smile, stepped aside, and said, "Please co in."
Leng Chan walked in confidently and sat on the sofa. The layout of the rooms here was similar, so she wasn’t curious, but instead just looked at Yuan Huai.
"Do you need sothing?" Yuan Huai asked.
"Yes," Leng Chan replied coldly.
Seeing Leng Chan’s expression, Yuan Huai sighed and sat opposite her.
"What is Leng Xiaofeng to you?" Yuan Huai asked.
Leng Chan had inquired about Leng Xiaofeng during the day, and now she was here undoubtedly for this matter.
"That’s none of your concern. I just want to know about him," Leng Chan said coldly.
"I don’t know," Yuan Huai replied straightforwardly.
"You do," Leng Chan responded just as directly.
Yuan Huai remained silent and just sat there quietly.
"Please, tell ," Leng Chan persisted.
Leng Chan could tell Yuan Huai knew sothing because he was not good at hiding the truth.
"I won’t say anything, so you might as well not ask," Yuan Huai said as he stood up. "It’s already late, you should leave. I need to rest."
Yuan Huai clearly wanted her to leave; he didn’t want to revisit past matters.
"I am his daughter," Leng Chan revealed her relationship with Leng Xiaofeng only because Yuan Huai wouldn’t speak.
Yuan Huai wasn’t surprised. When she inquired about Lu Xiaofeng, he had already guessed it. But it was a matter from many years ago, and he had no desire to revisit it.
"Stop investigating; those matters are all in the past," Yuan Huai said caringly.
"If you don’t speak, I’m not leaving today," Leng Chan stubbornly declared.
Yuan Huai was at a loss. It was awkward to be alone in a room with a woman like this.
Just then, soone suddenly pushed the door open and ca in. From his large build and dark complexion, it was clear it was Tie Zhuzi.
Tie Zhuzi walked in and, upon seeing Leng Chan there, awkwardly smiled and said, "Sorry to disturb you."
Tie Zhuzi then turned to leave.
"Stop right there," Leng Chan suddenly said, standing up to leave. As she passed by Tie Zhuzi, she glanced at him coldly and said, "You didn’t see anything."
Tie Zhuzi nodded quickly, "I didn’t see anything."
Seeing Tie Zhuzi’s honest expression, Leng Chan believed he wouldn’t talk and nodded before leaving.
In fact, she was quite grateful to Tie Zhuzi. Back when she fought Fang Xiaoming, it was Tie Zhuzi’s iron rod that helped her a lot.
After Leng Chan left, Tie Zhuzi smiled mischievously at Yuan Huai, a far cry from his earlier honest look.
"Listen, it’s not what you think. Hey, don’t go..."
Yuan Huai was now wide awake. mories from the past flooded into his mind.
The next day, Yuan Huai got up early to exercise. His body had been deteriorating due to years of drinking, and he needed to get fit quickly.
He couldn’t even complete a lap around the villa, but Xiang Yu managed to run ten laps before stopping to practice boxing.
"Kid, are you a freak? Not only do you have great stamina and strength, but you also drink so much. Are you even human?" Yuan Huai complained while practicing boxing alongside Xiang Yu.
"Theoretically, I’m no longer human; I am the god people worship in their hearts," Xiang Yu said with a serious and calm deanor.
Yuan Huai was left speechless. Xiang Yu could boast so calmly, which was truly admirable.
"Did you tease Leng Chan yesterday?" Xiang Yu asked casually.
Yuan Huai blushed and replied, "Don’t listen to Tie Zhuzi’s nonsense. I didn’t do anything."
"You wanted to do sothing?" Xiang Yu responded with surprise.
Yuan Huai knew explaining to Xiang Yu was pointless, so he didn’t bother and just continued practicing with him.
He had been training with Xiang Yu for over ten days, and he felt his body slowly recovering and growing stronger.
It was strange, but he didn’t think much of it. After all, he used to be a dragon among n.
After finishing their training and eating, they headed to the indoor basketball court. Today was the day for candidates to be promoted to Vice Sect Leader, and Xiang Yu had to participate.
As they approached the basketball court, they saw that cars were parked outside and many people were crowded there.
It turned out that the inside was already packed, and people traveled from far and wide just to catch a glimpse of Xiang Yu.
Tie Zhuzi followed excitedly beside Xiang Yu and said, "Brother Yu, we’ve hit it big this ti. Look at all the brothers in Hongn; they’ll listen to our command in the future."
"Keep a low profile," Xiang Yu quietly reminded him.
They also wanted to squeeze in from the outside, but there were too many people, making it impossible.
"What hall are you from, pushing around like this?" soone said impatiently to Xiang Yu.
"I have sothing to do inside," Xiang Yu said with a smile.
"We all have things to do. Otherwise, why would we be here? Stand in the back," the person replied rudely.
Xiang Yu had no choice but to try another side, but it was the sa situation—too many people inside, preventing him from entering...
