Chapter 52 - 52 50 The Trouble Caused

52: Chapter 50: The Trouble Caused 52: Chapter 50: The Trouble Caused After that conversation, Li Jie’s heart had also felt some relief.

“By the way, Brother Jie, how did you end up provoking that group of people?

They all seemed like local toughs, must be quite influential huh?

I’m afraid this won’t be the end of it,” Tangyu asked.

Li Jie’s facial muscles twitched, a flash of panic crossed his eyes.

He looked at Tangyu, hesitated for a while before clenching his teeth and said, “Actually, I’m not too clear about who exactly they are, but I’m pretty sure they should be the local toughs from West Donglin Street.

Having offended such people, I can only blame my bad luck, and I will be more careful in the future.” Li Jie was also somewhat worried and afraid.

After all, even if that group of people didn’t dare to kill him outright, crippling him was something he believed they would dare to do.

Encountering such an incident naturally made Li Jie very worried.

But since things had come to this point, there was no other way but to brace himself and deal with it.

“I think it’s a local tough too, and this might complicate things.

In the underworld, face is everything; fighting over it is common.

They failed in their attempt to kill you yesterday and instead got themselves into trouble, so they definitely won’t let this go; they are bound to take their revenge on you or me.

I’m not afraid if they come after me, but it would be dangerous if they targeted you,” Tangyu said seriously.

If this matter was not resolved, it was almost certain that Li Jie would have no chances of coming to work again.

Since he had this friend, Tangyu wanted to take care of the situation thoroughly.

Li Jie’s face also turned rather pale, this worry constantly gnawing at him, and he had thought of the worst-case scenarios.

But hearing Tangyu so certain about it frightened him anew, a nameless fear spreading within his heart.

“Brother Jie, you don’t need to worry.

Since I’ve taken on this matter, I will see it through to the end.

However, I still don’t know the details of the incident or how you offended them, so I’m not sure how to start helping you sort this out.

So, Brother Jie, could you tell me exactly what happened?” Tangyu asked.

Li Jie was greatly shaken and stared blankly at Tangyu, as if he had seen a bright light in the darkness, grasping at a straw of salvation.

However, reason still made Li Jie calm down.

He knew that this matter was not trifling.

Tangyu might be skilled, but dealing with a local tough could still be very dangerous.

Li Jie shook his head and said, “No need, Tangyu, thank you for your kindness, but since this matter started because of me, I should be the one to face it.

I don’t want to drag you into it anymore.

Just the two of us, we absolutely can’t fight against those local toughs.

Even if we call the police, they wouldn’t be able to do anything about them.”

Tangyu smiled lightly and said, “Don’t be so pessimistic about it.

Everything has a possibility; nothing is absolute.

Don’t worry, Brother Jie, if I say I can handle it, I naturally have some confidence.

I’m not foolish; I wouldn’t rashly tackle something I’m unsure of.

I’m still young, and I definitely want to live a good life.”

Li Jie was stunned, thought about it, and felt there was some reason in it.

Perhaps, Tangyu really had some confidence.

His astonishing skills alone made it seem plausible that he had some significant backing.

Li Jie thought for a while and then said, “Speaking of the matter, I can only blame my own foolishness.

Here’s what happened: a few days ago, I was bored at home in the evening and stumbled upon an adult website online.

I often saw advertisements for such sites before but never paid them any mind.

However, that night, foolishly, I clicked on it.

A suppressed thought emerged in my mind wanting to find a woman to play with, and frankly, I despise myself for being so frivolous.

I entered the site and browsed randomly when a woman took the initiative to send me a message, and she was very forward in chatting with me.

We talked openly, asking some daring questions.

Of course, nothing happened that first day.

Over the next few days, I visited the site a few more times and coincidentally ran into the same woman on several occasions.

Each time she was very proactive in chatting with me.

Last night, as we were talking, she suddenly suggested we meet up to do some things she had been wanting to do, and I knew she was proposing a hookup.

My mind certainly wasn’t against it, so I agreed without hesitation.”

“We agreed to meet at a location and I was quite satisfied when I saw her.

She might not have been very beautiful, but she had a very sexy figure and was fashionably dressed, and importantly, quite young.

She seemed equally pleased with me.

But it’s all casual sex, so there weren’t many demands.

We started with some food, just at a roadside food stall, and the two of us spent less than a hundred yuan.

So I let my guard down, convinced she wasn’t a scammer, just a lonely soul like me.

After eating, we went straight to get a room—” Li Jie stopped at that point, looked at Tangyu, but Tangyu had no particular expression, so Li Jie continued,”Everything was going smoothly, but just as we were about to undress in the room, the door was busted open, and those men charged in.

I knew immediately that something was wrong.

While they were confronting the woman, I took the chance and ran, and that’s when the subsequent events unfolded.”

After listening, Tangyu finally understood the full story, “So, the woman you hooked up with was the girlfriend of one of those men who were chasing you.

You messed with a local tough’s girl; this is no small matter.

Regardless of whether she seduced you first, that won’t hold with these street types.

No wonder they pulled out knives and chased you down the street.

In their world, having their women messed with by another man is a huge offense, a taboo”

“Er…

are you saying I’m definitely doomed?” Li Jie felt utterly disheartened.

“If I don’t step in, I reckon you’d really be hard-pressed to escape this ordeal; you might not die, but at the very least, you could end up crippled, or even – potentially rendered useless over there,” Tangyu said straightforwardly.

Li Jie’s face turned frightfully pale, and he broke into a cold sweat.

He naturally knew what Tangyu was referring to.

Tangyu patted Li Jie’s shoulder and said, “I told you not to worry, didn’t I?

I’ll handle this for you.

I can’t say I’m a hundred percent sure, but as long as the local tough’s influence isn’t too immense, I think it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

If we’re to solve this, we should do it soon.

We’ll ask Sister Min for leave in the morning and head over.”

“Alright, Tangyu, I’ll listen to you, thank you.” Li Jie nodded his head, at that moment he fully trusted Tangyu.

“Don’t mention it, I’ve said we are friends, and I can’t just stand by when a friend is in trouble.

Don’t worry, it won’t come to that; things aren’t that severe yet, after all, you haven’t had a relationship with that woman.

If you had, it might indeed have been a bit troublesome,” Tangyu said.

Wang Dazhuang suddenly came in, looking serious, “Bro Jie, Bro Tangyu, let me go with you, the more people, the more strength.”

Seeing Wang Dazhuang come in, Li Jie’s face turned red—it seemed Wang Dazhuang had heard everything.

But he quickly came to terms with it; this matter had to be explained to everyone anyway, so if he knew, he knew.

Tangyu shook his head, “No need, having more people might not be a good thing, it could make things worse.

So, stay at the company.

If we haven’t returned by noon, you can help us call the police.”

“Uh…” Wang Dazhuang was startled.

Tangyu smiled, “Just kidding, relax, I’m confident, trust me.”

Looking into Tangyu’s eyes, into his calm and indifferent face, Wang Dazhuang also felt a strange power filling his heart, rising with immense trust, and nodded to Tangyu, “Alright, Bro Tangyu, I trust you, but be careful.

We’ll be waiting for your return.”

“Thank you, Wang Dazhuang, I have offended many in the past, please forgive me,” Li Jie said with a grateful face.

Wang Dazhuang grinned, not expecting Brother Jie to have changed so much, “Don’t say that, Brother Jie, you were strict with us for our own good, I can understand that.”

“Alright, Brother Jie, let’s go,” Tangyu said.

The two asked Fang Min for a morning off without specifying the reason, just vaguely mentioning that they were going out to handle some matters.

The business department often had to go out to discuss cooperation with clients, so with Li Jie’s status, he really didn’t need to ask for half a day off.

After leaving the company, Li Jie was about to hail a taxi when Tangyu stopped him, “No need, I have a car, I’ll drive.”

Li Jie was slightly startled; Tangyu actually had a car, but he quickly realized that perhaps his family was well-off.

However, when he saw Tangyu pull up in a brand-new BMW 7 Series, Li Jie was truly stunned, his eyes full of surprise looking at Tangyu.

Being able to drive a luxury car worth over a million meant his family was definitely not simple.

This made him curious about who Tangyu really was; why would someone from such a wealthy family work as a low-level employee?

It’s not that Sister Xin couldn’t drive a million-dollar car.

Driving it is one thing, but maintaining it is an entirely different expense.

Once in the car, Li Jie’s heart was still restless.

“This is my friend’s car; he asked me to break it in,” Tangyu said casually, not wanting to draw too much attention.

Li Jie then nodded in relief.

West Lin Street, located in the West District of Donglin City, isn’t too bustling of a street; it’s an old street, though the red-light industry is quite thriving.

Thus, the street is also very chaotic.

In chaotic times, heroes emerge, and because of the chaos, local thugs dominate the area.

Donglin City has five districts, and West District is the oldest, giving it the most worn-down and chaotic vibe.

Many of Donglin City’s homegrown forces converge here.

The streets here are mostly divided by local thugs, forming several dark zones.

And West Lin Street is controlled by “Brother Biao” Wang Biao; anyone doing business on West Lin Street has to pay him protection money.

The many entertainment venues on West Lin Street are also owned by Brother Biao, and on this street, hardly anyone doesn’t know him.

West Lin Entertainment Club is a comprehensive venue, primarily featuring adult entertainment.

This club is exactly where Brother Biao’s den is located.
