Chapter 16: 【016】Troublesome Neighbor
"I’ve been obsessed with fitness these past few years, and recently I met an old man who practices Tai Chi. He taught me some Xingyi Boxing techniques. It’s just enough to bluff people,
and it’s not that I can fight. You saw those Spirit youngsters earlier; each one is so skinny, like skeletons, probably not even 110 pounds. Seriously trying would make it easy to win."
Wang Longhu explained with a smile. Except for the part about being obsessed with fitness for years, everything else was true.
But Ye Yuanpei already had a seed of suspicion planted in his heart, and he naturally found it hard to believe what was said.
"By the way, how’s your injury? Do you want to go to the hospital to have it looked at?" Wang Longhu changed the topic and asked.
Ye Yuanpei shook his head nonchalantly. "This injury is nothing. Once I sleep and wake up tomorrow, it’ll be fine."
"I just heard that guy with the knife say for you to return the video and IOU. Is he the one who attacked you earlier today? If he can track you down to Dong County and knows where you live, this isn’t a simple matter. You both need to be careful." Wang Longhu couldn’t help but remind them.
If it weren’t for him drinking here tonight, Ye Yuanpei and his companion might have been badly beaten.
"I, Ye Yuanpei, am quite a figure in Dong County. It’s no surprise they found out where I live. I’ll make sure to pay back these two secret losses today.
Damn Lingbei, owing me money and daring to come and snatch the IOU. This isn’t over." Ye Yuanpei sat back at the dining table, took a big swig of Tiger Bone Wine, and cursed.
Wang Longhu sat down helplessly; he could only intervene in this mess once, but he couldn’t keep helping them.
