At this mont, everyone already saw Xiang Yu as a dead man, daring to speak to Cheng Wulan like that. They had never encountered anyone like that before.
The air was filled with a tense atmosphere, and everyone was waiting to face Cheng Wulan’s wrath.
But to everyone’s surprise, Cheng Wulan turned and left without a word. They didn’t notice that the mont Cheng Wulan turned, the corners of her mouth curved upwards into a smile.
When Cheng Wulan left the room, many people let out a long sigh of relief, as if they had just gone through a life and death ordeal.
They all looked at Xiang Yu with strange eyes, clearly saying, "You lucky bastard."
Tang Yongmin, however, gritted his teeth, glaring viciously at Xiang Yu. Once all the team leaders left, he gritted his teeth and said, "You’re dead, kid."
Xiang Yu smiled nonchalantly and didn’t say much. Just then, two people ca over to Xiang Yu’s side.
Now everyone rembered, although Xiang Yu wasn’t dead, he still needed to face the punishnt of the second rule.
Verbal offense against a superior requires twenty cane strokes.
Xiang Yu did not resist and was dragged by the two and laid on the ground, whereupon two iron rods were taken to strike his buttocks.
Interestingly enough, it’s already the 21st century, and there are still people using such punishnts; it’s really childish.
It is likely that this punishnt thod was devised by Cheng Wulan. Although she’s a prominent leader, after all, she’s a woman, and won inherently have a naive nature.
Because of this, when Xiang Yu spoke those words earlier, Cheng Wulan did not bla him.
The iron rods hit Xiang Yu’s buttocks hard, and the burning pain made him gasp involuntarily.
Though the punishnt didn’t seem that severe, those two boys wielded all their strength in administering it.
In their hearts, their goddess was teased by Xiang Yu, so naturally, they were furious and thus showed no rcy to Xiang Yu.
"Ouch, Tang Yongmin, you bastard, you set up," Xiang Yu shouted, not at all concerned about how Wang Li, who was lying there, felt.
The others found it amusing seeing Xiang Yu like this, figuring this kid was quite tough, as most wouldn’t survive twenty strokes.
Yet Xiang Yu was still full of energy, cursing Tang Yongmin, which made them view Xiang Yu in a better light.
"Wang Shuo, you better serve well when we get back. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have ended up like this," Xiang Yu said, lying there.
Wang Shuo gave an awkward smile; indeed, it was his instigation that led Xiang Yu to this state.
"Alright, since you’ve beaten Wang Li, I’ll listen to you," Wang Shuo, not one to be coy, agreed on the spot.
"Bring a cup of water," Xiang Yu extended his hand.
Wang Shuo, though a bit uneasy, obediently brought water for Xiang Yu.
The twenty iron strokes were done, and the surrounding bodyguards and drivers said nothing further about the match.
Then a doctor entered the room with a dical box.
Upon entering, the doctor first saw Wang Li’s swollen face and intended to treat him.
"Hey, over here," Xiang Yu suddenly shouted, then pulled down his pants to reveal his lacerated buttocks.
Originally, everyone didn’t take Xiang Yu’s injury seriously, as they had never witnessed such a punishnt as twenty cane strokes before.
When Xiang Yu exposed his buttocks, they couldn’t help but draw in a breath of cold air.
Xiang Yu’s buttocks were a horrifying ss of blood and flesh, making people shiver at the sight.
Yet Xiang Yu lay there completely calm, indicating his high tolerance for pain.
When the doctor saw the wounds on Xiang Yu’s buttocks, he shivered inside and then looked at Xiang Yu again.
"Hey, doctor, stop admiring my butt and get on with the dicine," Xiang Yu said casually.
"Hang in there, it’ll hurt quite a bit when the dicine is applied," the doctor warned with so concern.
Xiang Yu just nodded without saying more.
The doctor tentatively applied a little, watched Xiang Yu’s face, and, seeing no reaction, relaxed. He then carefully started applying the dicine to Xiang Yu.
Afterward, he approached Wang Li with the dicine.
"Change it," Wang Li said coldly, sitting there.
Since being hit, he had sat there in silence, harboring imnse hatred for Xiang Yu, swearing to kill him as long as he lived.
The doctor switched to a different dicine and carefully applied it to Wang Li.
With the prior experience of Xiang Yu, the doctor did not bother asking Wang Li and applied it directly onto Wang Li’s face.
At that mont, Wang Li suddenly jumped up and slapped the doctor.
"What are you doing? What did you put on ? It hurts so much!" Wang Li shouted, standing up.
The doctor, clutching his face, complained with an aggrieved expression, "The dicine I used for you is the sa as that guy’s."
Only then did the surrounding people realize that this dicine was incredibly potent.
"Shut up, can’t a person get so sleep?" Xiang Yu suddenly quipped.
Everyone was speechless; during the application of dicine, Xiang Yu made no sound, and with his buttocks now shredded, the dication surely hurt more.
Wang Li’s face was only swollen, far less painful than Xiang Yu’s injuries.
Wang Li also realized he had overreacted, quickly sitting back down, glancing at Xiang Yu who lay there, unwillingly admiring Xiang Yu’s pain tolerance.
Now everyone’s gaze towards Xiang Yu changed once more, especially Wang Shuo, who began to look up to Xiang Yu sincerely.
anwhile, in another office, Cheng Wulan and a few team leaders were in a eting.
"A war escalation isn’t bad for us. In fact, it’s the strongest opportunity to expand our influence." Cheng Wulan looked at everyone before continuing, "I plan to lead our team towards the direction of becoming rcenaries."
Once she finished speaking, the room fell silent. Everyone was pondering Cheng Wulan’s words.
The news was indeed astonishing to them.
Cheng Wulan wasn’t in a hurry and waited there to give them plenty of ti to think.
After about five minutes, she looked at everyone and asked, "What do you all think?"
The five team leaders looked at each other, not wanting to be the first to express an opinion.
"Team Leader Wang," Cheng Wulan turned to Wang Xiao.
Seeing no one speaking, Cheng Wulan started calling nas, and Wang Xiao, being the leader of one team, was naturally the first to respond.
Wang Xiao braced himself and said, "Sister Lan, I feel the timing for our transformation is not yet mature."
"Why?" Cheng Wulan straightforwardly asked.
Wang Xiao thought for a mont and continued, "Being rcenaries isn’t that simple, we must first have weapons, then our brothers need thorough training. Moreover..." Wang Xiao paused and continued, "Our brothers have grown accustod to being lazy, if we really have to go to the battlefield, I think..."
Wang Xiao hesitated to continue, but everyone already understood...
