Chapter 117: 98 Exposure

A night quickly passed.

Liang Buqing woke up from his sleep, his eyes foggy as he opened them, feeling his head swollen and heavy.

He sat up in bed, yawned, looked around the room, and suddenly froze.

"Where is this?"

Liang Buqing rubbed his head, still dizzy, his mind was a complete mess, unable to remember anything.

He didn’t know where he was, nor how he ended up there.

"Did I blackout from drinking?!"

Liang Buqing smelled a strong scent of alcohol on himself and saw a nauseating puddle of vomit beside the bed, making him suspect that he had drunk heavily last night.

He hurriedly got out of bed and went to the window to look outside.

The street was covered in snow with few pedestrians around.

The pale sun hung in the sky, judging by the time, it was almost well past noon.

This sleep took him, damn near to midday!

Liang Buqing carefully observed the surrounding buildings, then suddenly realized.

"This place is, Hanxiang Building!"

Liang Buqing vaguely remembered that he had come here with Yan Songfa; they had picked a girl for company and drank together, but he couldn’t remember anything after that.

Liang Buqing turned to look at the bed, but didn’t see anyone else. Where was the girl he had chosen?

"Knock knock—"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Liang Buqing quickly got dressed and went to open the door.

A person appeared outside the door.

Liang Buqing paused, recognizing the visitor, Xu Xiaodao, the Gang Leader of the little knife gang.

To say he knew him was only one-sided.

Actually, he had never officially met Xu Xiaodao.

The only reason he knew Xu Xiaodao was because the latter had taken Xu Dazhi, the Incense Master, as his godfather, an event that was quite sensational.

"Gang Leader Xu?" Liang Buqing was incredibly surprised.

Xu Xiaodao smiled, saluted with his hands, and said, "Brother Liang, you’re awake. I’ve been waiting for you for quite a while."

"You, waiting for me?"

A confused Liang Buqing was even more baffled.

Xu Xiaodao made himself at home walking into the room and sat down, then snapped his fingers.

Snap!

Immediately after, two men in black led a young woman into the room.

Liang Buqing’s pupils constricted; he remembered that this girl was the one who had served him last night.

What was her name?

"What, what is going on here?"

Liang Buqing looked puzzled.

Xu Xiaodao extended his hand, gesturing him to sit down.

Liang Buqing frowned, a sense of unease rising in his heart, and slowly sat down.

Xu Xiaodao said indifferently, "Big Brother Liang, people talk a lot when they drink too much. Last night you said quite a bit, which this little wretch overheard."

Liang Buqing’s heart skipped a beat, startled, and he forced a laugh, "What did I say? Drunken words shouldn’t be taken seriously."

"That is true, but some also say, ’In vino veritas!’"

Xu Xiaodao smiled meaningfully, then turned to the girl and said coldly, "What did you hear last night?"

The girl slightly raised her head, looking timidly at Liang Buqing, and stammered softly, "I heard him say, say, he killed someone from the Black Tiger Sect!"

Liang Buqing’s expression stiffened, his breathing halted, and his mind went blank instantaneously.

Xu Xiaodao, observing his reaction closely, narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly, "This little wretch thinks the secret you revealed while drunk, Big Brother Liang, is quite valuable, so she came to me, wanting my help to sell the information to the Black Tiger Sect."

Gulp~

Liang Buqing’s scalp tingled, he continuously swallowed, sweat breaking out coldly, so nervous that his whole body couldn’t stop shaking, and he stammered, "You, you... "

Xu Xiaodao immediately waved his hand and said, "I’m also from the Iron Mountain Sect, how could I betray our own? So, I immediately detained her and brought her back for you, Big Brother Liang, to handle."

Liang Buqing breathed a sigh of relief, his expression gradually twisted as he walked forward and slapped her across the face.

"Slap~"

The girl fell backward from the blow, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, her cheek quickly swelling.

Liang Buqing panted heavily, eyes blazing with fury, his fists clenched tightly, wishing he could strangle this little wretch.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaodao spoke unhurriedly, "Big Brother Liang, this little wretch who gossips can’t be spared."

He stood up, made a throat-slashing gesture to two black-clad strongmen, and said coldly, "Drag her out."

"Please spare my life, sir!"

"I was wrong, sir, I just wanted to buy my freedom!"

No matter what she screamed, the two black-clad strongmen brutally stuffed her into a sack and dragged her out.

Liang Buqing watched, slowly sat down, his whole body feeling like it had been drained, his gaze slightly vacant.

Xu Xiaodao patted his shoulder, laughing, "It’s all right now, Big Brother Liang, drink less in the future. Drinking leads to trouble!"

"Oh..."

Liang Buqing’s expression numb, replied, suddenly raising his head, and asked, "Gang Leader Xu, you saved my life, how can I ever repay you?"

Xu Xiaodao waved his hand and laughed, "What are you talking about, we both serve the Iron Mountain Sect, isn’t it right for me to help you?"

Liang Buqing hesitated, "This..."

Seeing this, Xu Xiaodao said seriously, "How about this, you owe me a favor. Next time I need help, I hope Big Brother Liang won’t refuse."

Liang Buqing replied promptly, "Definitely, definitely, from now on Gang Leader Xu is my good brother!"

Xu Xiaodao laughed heartily and bowed before leaving.

Liang Buqing watched him go, then mopped his sweat profusely before picking up a teacup and gulping down its contents.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiaodao turned and walked into another room.

"How did it go?"

In the room, Zhang Hu stood up from his seat, urgently asking.

Xu Xiaodao nodded slowly, "It’s confirmed, it must have been Fang Zhixing who did the killing."

Zhang Hu beamed with joy, asking, "Did Liang Buqing confess to you?"

Xu Xiaodao shook his head and said, "In that situation, even if you gave Liang Buqing ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare confess. I tricked it out of him!"
