Chapter 31: I Never Expected You’d Hog It All For Yourself
Dusk.
Outside Xianwei Tower.
“It’s been a long time since I came here to eat.” Lin Fan still reminisced about this place very much, and he even somewhat missed Butler Li. Butler Li was truly generous, but this guy hadn’t come to find him for a while.
If Butler Li knew Lin Fan’s thoughts, he would definitely wave his hands repeatedly.
Couldn’t find him, really couldn’t find him.
The gang leader had said, you’ve joined the Public Security Bureau with big ambitions, can’t pull you over, as for the silver spent before, just consider it fed to the dogs.
Regarding this.
Butler Li was very dissatisfied. The way it was put, I ate too, doesn’t that mean I’m a dog too?
“Brother Lin, Fourth Master Qin invited you alone, you’re bringing us along, okay?” Yang Ming asked uncomfortably.
Bringing guests, but bringing women.
Seems a bit excessive.
Squad Leader Song nearby felt the same. He didn’t want to come, but Lin Fan told him that being reckless wouldn’t work, to take them down, he had to infiltrate internally, become brothers.
He thought about it and felt it made a lot of sense.
“No problem, just talk less when the time comes, leave it to me.” Lin Fan said.
Squad Leader Song and Yang Ming nodded.
At this moment, Lin Fan seemed not like a commoner constable, but like a squad leader, while Song Qing and Yang Ming were the commoner constables.
“Oh, Master Lin, you’ve finally come.” The shopkeeper spotted Lin Fan in constable uniform with the iron rod on his back at a glance and hurried forward respectfully.
This Master Lin really knew how to stir things up, transforming into a constable just like that.
“Mm, lead the way.”
“Alrighty.”
Stepping into the restaurant, occupational habit made him glance at the hall, and at a glance he saw an old acquaintance sitting alone in the corner drinking and eating.
Butler Li.
At this time, Butler Li was taking a sip of wine and a bite of food, savoring the deliciousness before him with relish. After the binge eating and drinking some time ago, his stomach had become picky.
When eating dishes, he only wanted those from Xianwei Tower; other dishes were hard to digest.
Mm… there’s a gaze.
Those who are often stared at know that when someone keeps looking at you, you’ll have a strange perception, always feeling uncomfortable all over.
Butler Li looked up to find that gaze, and he spotted Lin Fan standing at the staircase entrance at a glance.
He wanted to greet him warmly, but suddenly, he noticed something off in Lin Fan’s gaze, which contained all sorts of emotions.
Surprise!
Shock!
Disappointment!
Regret!
As if saying, aren’t we friends? You actually came to eat alone without calling me.
Butler Li recalled the various situations before. He had approached Lin Fan with a purpose, but during that time together, their relationship had deepened, becoming like brothers.
He could feel that although it was all play-acting at first, over time, they could be considered friends.
Butler Li wanted to stand up and greet him warmly, explaining why he came to eat alone, but just as he had that thought, he saw Lin Fan say nothing, not even glance at him, chatting and laughing with the people beside him as he went up the stairs.
He saw Lin Fan’s cheek twitching slightly from the side, that was disappointment toward him.
Thinking of this, Butler Li’s mouth slightly agape, with a thousand words but not knowing how to speak, he raised his cup and drained it, lowered his head, the delicious food before him lost its taste, as if he had done something guilty.
“Brother Lin, I’m really not eating alone. Since you consider me a friend, if I don’t find you, you’ll come find me eventually.”
Muttering to himself.
Another cup of strong liquor down his throat.
Just a few cups, and he was drunk.
Second floor, Palace private room.
Qin Si sat there waiting, and beside him sat another person, big and burly, with a tiger back and bear waist, very fierce, but overall giving an impression of not being too smart.
Originally it was agreed to be one-on-one, just the two of them.
But Peng Chang came back with the situation report, making him unsure how to proceed, so he originally wanted to ask Wang Changhai to accompany him, since he was closer to Lin Fan and easier to talk to.
But who would have thought Wang Changhai said he wasn’t feeling well and politely declined.
No choice, he could only ask another hall master from Loyalty Hall, namely He Sen in front of him.
“Old Fourth Qin, relax, with me here, that kid won’t dare not give face. No matter what, I’m a hall master, when he sees me he has to respectfully call me Hall Master He.”
He Sen shoved beef tendon into his mouth with his bare hands, his eating manners disgusting, making Qin Si feel nauseous.
He was starting to regret calling He Sen.
Damn it, don’t mess up my business.
I’m here with sincerity to negotiate with that Lin guy.
He Sen grinned, missing a front tooth, his smile ferocious, “This is good stuff, great tonic. After we finish your business later, I’m still going to play with a good-family little girl, fourteen years old, very tender.”
Heh heh, Hall Master He, you really know how to play, but you better take it easy, don’t let things blow up and be hard to clean up.” Qin Si said with great disgust.
Really fucking perverted.
The women in the brothel are so much better, proficient in all eighteen martial arts, skilled at blowing, playing, singing, everything.
One grip and it rises, can deliver goods, very refreshing.
Forcing good-family girls, what kind of mentality does that take.
He Sen said disdainfully: “You think I’ve been idling around for nothing? Blow up? Unless her family doesn’t want to live.”
At this moment, footsteps came from outside, along with the shopkeeper’s voice.
“Master Lin, it’s right here.”
Pushing the door.
Qin Si stood up, just about to address him as Master Lin, when he saw Lin Fan even more enthusiastic than him, a smile appearing as he opened his arms.
“Fourth Master Qin, long time no see.”
Hug, patting the back.
Qin Si’s hands hung in the air, stunned, really stunned.
Weren’t we, have we even met before?
You’ve completely thrown me off.
But thinking of Lin Fan’s enthusiasm, Qin Si also smiled and patted Lin Fan’s back, “Master Lin, yes, long time no see, I’ve missed you terribly.”
When out and about, if you can’t act, don’t go out.
Look at them now, whoever sees them wouldn’t say, these two clearly have a good relationship, definitely good brothers.
He Sen leaned back in his chair, head tilted, watching the scene before him, not moving a bit, with an air of, I’m Hall Master He here, if you’re smart, you’ll respectfully call me Hall Master He.
Letting go.
Qin Si saw the other two beside Lin Fan and was startled, he brought people.
And he brought Song Qing and Yang Ming.
He was all too familiar with Song Qing, just like a stone in the latrine, smelly and hard.
Lin Fan smiled and said: “Fourth Master Qin, I know you said one-on-one, chat alone, but I knew you’d definitely bring people, so I brought two along to introduce to you, you don’t mind, right.”
“Oh, Master Lin, what are you saying, I’m thrilled.” Qin Si said, “Come, come, quickly sit down, the dishes are all served, just waiting for Master Lin, let’s start.”
Lin Fan looked at He Sen.
He didn’t expect Qin Si had called him. Back when he was mixing at Jili Wharf, he had heard others talk about it.
The most beastly guy in Loyalty Hall was He Sen.
This guy liked forcing and defiling good-family girls, and every time after, if the girl’s family resisted even a bit, he would find ways to torment them.
Glanced at the beef tendon on the plate in front of him.
He knew, tonight another good-family girl was going to be targeted.
Fuck.
Originally tonight he wanted to take down Qin Si.
Now the target changed, tonight he was going to ruthlessly take down He Sen.
