"Captain Shangguan, hello, I am..."
"Boss Wen, I know your phone number. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Wen Liang was stunned. Considering her relationship with Yan Qixiu, it was not surprising that she knew his phone number. He was surprised that Shangguan Chenlu would actually write it down, because no matter from which angle you look at it, she didn't seem like someone who would care about such trivial matters.
Uncle Wen never belittles himself, but when faced with a ruthless person like Shangguan Chenlu, he can only consciously classify himself as insignificant, and maybe that's a little too high.
"I'm sorry to bother you so late at night," Wen Liang said before the girl who was holding the wine rack beside him suddenly rushed over. He tried to pull her but failed. He didn't bother to beat around the bush and said, "It's like this, there's a guy nicknamed Dongzhi Longge, I wonder if Captain Shangguan has any acquaintance with him?"
"Wei Chenlong from Dongzhi?" Shangguan Chenlu's voice was as calm as the surface of an iceberg that has not rippled for thousands of years. She asked, "Have you offended him?"
"That's not the case. A friend of mine had a small conflict with him..."
"Where are you now?"
“The Crescent Bay Bar at the entrance of Sanlitun South Street…”
"Crescent Bay... I'm doing some work nearby. Wait five minutes, I'll be there soon!"
Listening to the beeping sound in the microphone, Wen Liang was a little distracted for a moment. He originally wanted Shangguan Chenlu to just make a phone call, but he didn't expect her to come in person without saying anything. But on second thought, Shangguan didn't seem like someone who would do such a fuss. Could it be that this Dongzhilong brother was so difficult that even she had to be there to be sure of a deal
At this moment, Lin Jing pointed to the field and said urgently: "Boss, Mu Jin was forced to drink by those people!"
Wen Liang's eyes narrowed. Chang Cheng didn't come to the capital this time, so it would not be easy to delay for five minutes. However, the situation did not allow him to hesitate. He said, "Go and stay with Yin Yong and the others. Tell Meng Fan that no matter what happens later, don't act rashly."
"Boss, you..."
Wen Liang waved his hand, said nothing more, and turned to walk into the venue. Lin Jing looked at his back, her eyes full of worry, but she knew that she couldn't persuade him, and it would be useless even if she went over, so it would be better to meet up with Yin Meng and others first to discuss countermeasures.
A few blocks away from the bar, in a dark corner of East Fifth Alley, a black Santana was parked. There were four people in the car, two men in the back and two women in the front. Sitting in the passenger seat was Shangguan Chenlu, who had just talked to Wen Liang on the phone. She put away her phone and said, "Xiao Zhou, go to Group 2 and Group 3 and tell them to wake up and not fall asleep. Keep an eye on every entrance and exit. Meng Tian, you stay here and notify Group 4 to come over to fill in. Let Group 5 continue to stand by and take turns with Group 2 in ten minutes."
"yes!"
Xiao Zhou and Meng Tian got out of the car, one walked to the alley on the east side, and the other stood under a tree on the roadside and smoked. Shangguan Chenlu said to the girl driving the car, "Diao Lan, let's go to the Crescent Bay Bar!"
Diao Lan immediately started the car and drove towards Crescent Bay. Of course, she had heard the content of Shangguan Chenlu's phone call just now. She was extremely curious and wondered what kind of background could make the general team, who always worked so hard and without regard for their relatives, put down their work and go to the rescue.
“…Okay, I promise!”
The long-haired girl was not willing to let Mu Jin drink the heartbreaking wine for her, not to mention the tragedy of accompanying the guest for three days. If that really happened, her life would be completely ruined. But her body was firmly blocked by Mu Jin behind her, and there was no way to stop her. Tears flowed down her cheeks, and the despair and helplessness she had never experienced filled her mind. She was so depressed that she could hardly breathe.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Drink, drink quickly, so you can get a room after drinking, my little brother can't wait any longer!"
"Brother Liu, what's the point of being so anxious? Didn't that chick finish in three seconds last time?"
"Fuck you, I sprained my back the day before yesterday. If it's less than an hour this time, I'll kill you!"
"Hey, how about a competition?"
"Let's compete, am I afraid?"
Brother Long's men burst into laughter, as if the most interesting thing in the world was to see others struggling at their feet. Mu Jin's face was as pale as paper, and she twisted her hands heavily on her thighs. Then she grabbed the whiskey on the table and was about to close her eyes and pour it into her mouth, when suddenly a hand reached out and snatched the bottle away. She heard a gentle voice in her ear: "You are so young, why are you drinking!"
Mu Jin turned around in shock and saw the guy who had made her feel so embarrassed just now standing next to her. She opened her mouth slightly, not understanding what was going on. The long-haired girl was also stunned, almost unable to believe her eyes, and exclaimed: "You..."
Wen Liang winked at her, signaling her not to make a sound, then patted Mu Jin on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll take care of the rest!"
Although Mu Jin and Wen Liang had only met by chance, she didn't know why her trembling body suddenly calmed down when she heard him say that. The action just now had exhausted her strength and courage, and her legs and feet softened and she fell into Wen Liang's arms. Wen Liang handed her to the long-haired girl, asked the two girls to step back a few steps, walked to the booth and stood tall, and said with a smile: "Brother Long, you are a big man, but the little girl is ignorant, why bother with them? Why don't you give me face and skip the wine?"
"Who the hell are you?"
Liu Ge, who had just shouted that his little brother was thirsty, stood up and pointed at Wen Liang's face, swearing. Wen Liang continued to smile, and the whiskey he snatched from Mu Jin's hand slammed on the table. Before everyone could react, the sharp half of the bottle passed through the splashing beer and glass fragments in the air and pierced into Lao Liu's shoulder like lightning, and at the same time kicked him in the lower body.
Brother Liu had just felt the sharp pain in his shoulder and had not yet uttered the angry roar in his throat when he was hit so hard by the violent impact on his lower body that he lost the ability to speak and fell limply to the ground in front of Wen Liang.
Wen Liang gently raised his right foot and stepped on the bottle on Brother Liu's shoulder, letting the blood flow under his feet. He kept smiling and said, "When the adults are talking, it's not my place to interrupt. I'll teach him a lesson on behalf of Brother Long. I hope it won't hurt everyone's harmony."
The seven men, including the burly man, all stood up. Some of them put their hands on their waists, with fierce eyes and murderous intent, like wild beasts ready to eat their prey. If they were timid people, they would probably wet their pants right away.
Dong Zhilong was indeed extraordinary, as his brothers alone could be so aggressive. The crowd watching the excitement was truly frightened at this moment, and more than half of them ran away in a flash. The rest were either foolish and bold, or had important backgrounds, but they also stood far away from the venue, fearing that they would be involved in the fight.
Lin Jing was reluctant to leave, but Meng Fan knew Wen Liang's methods. Since he had specifically ordered her to do so, she had to follow his instructions and not go against his will or act on her own. So he let Zhou Shijun and Shao Yuhua put Lin Jing in a corner.
"Minister Lin, if you want to work with the boss, the first thing you have to remember is to follow orders!" Meng Fan lowered his voice and said sternly, "Who isn't worried here? But worrying is useless. Staying here will not help. It's better to choose to believe!"
Lin Jing looked at Wen Liang who was surrounded. How could he deal with these ferocious hooligans all alone? She asked blankly, "Believe it?"
"That's right. I believe the boss is omnipotent and will never let us down!"
Meng Fan started working with Wen Liang from Biluochun and witnessed all the miracles along the way. After taking over Phoenix Bird, he became Wen Liang's absolute confidant and participated in the operation of many major events. He had a fanaticism that was almost worshipful in his bones.
Lin Jing was infected by his firm belief. She looked at Wen Liang again, and her eyes gradually became firm: Boss, you must not let me down!
Wen Liang pushed hard with his feet, and Brother Liu screamed, just like a pig or sheep lying on a wooden board waiting to be slaughtered. The giant man flashed a flash of anger, but did not order to attack immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Brother Long, who was sitting comfortably, half drunk and half awake.
Wen Liang, who was highly expected by his subordinates, actually secretly wiped a cold sweat. He had to be ruthless. Otherwise, he would have shocked the other party. It would be difficult for him to protect himself with his skills. After all, he was not Chang Cheng, and the giant alone might not be able to handle it. However, he had to choose the right target to be ruthless. The other party was all desperate. Just being ruthless might arouse their anger, which would be counterproductive. Therefore, in addition to being ruthless, he had to catch someone who could make the other party afraid to act rashly. This Brother Liu was able to speak without authorization, which meant that he had a say in the circle. He was sitting next to Brother Long, so he should have a high status. After teasing him, he was echoed and played with by others. He seemed to have good popularity. The most advantageous thing was that this person was delicate and tender, with a dim complexion. He was probably a pen-like character, and his fighting ability was not that high. Therefore, when he saw that he was the first to come forward, Wen Liang didn't think twice and directly knocked him down and controlled him!
He bet right!
The giant hesitated for a moment. Brother Long still looked drunk. He squinted at Wen Liang and touched his bald head with his big hand. He said, "Those who beat me up and meddle in my business, are you tired of living?"
If he was willing to speak, there would be a possibility of delay. Wen Liang was afraid that he would not speak and would just start a fight. In that case, he would die before he could accomplish his goal. He said, "Brother Long, you are joking. I can tell from the looks of it that I am a person who loves life and loves life. Living another hundred or eighty years would not be too much. But the one under my feet, if you don't say something, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to survive tonight."
Brother Long chuckled and said, "A hundred and eighty years? You don't even look like a turtle, but you still want to live a long life. Because of your wish, I will be generous and give you face. Boy, I will count to three, and if you let them go, I will just ask for one of your hands. You can find a place to sell these two girls' skins for three to five years, and then we will be even!"
Wen Liang smiled and said, "You know what, with Brother Long's temper, I'll make a lot of money from this deal."
Brother Long slowly sat up straight. He was able to make it to where he is today, so he was definitely not a reckless and ignorant ruffian. He saw that Wen Liang's behavior was definitely a top choice. He frowned and said, "You look very unfamiliar. Are you from out of town?"
Wen Liang nodded and said, "Brother Long has a good eye. This is my first time in a bar here!"
"Is this the first time these two girls have met each other?"
Wen Liang gave a thumbs up and said, "Great, you can see that, Brother Long has a keen eye!"
Brother Long stared at Wen Liang's face carefully, confirmed that he was not lying, and slowly lay back down. That is to say, in the small city of Sijiu, there is no one who does not know the powerful figures of that age in those families. After a long time, it turned out that he was a country bumpkin from outside the city. Although this country bumpkin looked a little more powerful, he was still a country bumpkin no matter how powerful he was. He sneered and said, "Boy, you have to understand. This is the imperial city, under the feet of the emperor. If you try to be a hero, you will lose your head!"
Wen Liang knew that he could only delay it till here, but according to the time, Shangguan Chenlu should be here by now. He hoped that she didn’t have the bad habit of being late!
"Who wants to lose his head?"
Someone like Shangguan Chenlu would certainly not be late. She said five minutes and it meant five minutes, not a minute more or less. She walked over with big strides in the simplest casual clothes, and Diao Lan followed closely behind her.
The capital city is big, but it is not a small place. Especially since Shangguan Chenlu had worked in the Public Security Corps, she was well-known and everyone knew her. The giant shuddered a little, and seeing that the boss was still drunk and out of shape, he leaned over and said, "Boss, Shangguan Chenlu is here..."
(Thanks for the reminder, I'll correct it to An Jiu's "Sāhā". Staying up too late will make you dizzy.) (To be continued)
