Chapter 393 - 393 393 The Surprise at Xiang Yu Headquarters

393: Chapter 393 The Surprise at Xiang Yu Headquarters 393: Chapter 393 The Surprise at Xiang Yu Headquarters Although Xiaoxuan didn’t say anything, Xiang Yu vaguely felt that Xiaoxuan’s emotions fluctuated more when he saw Zhong Huashan.

At the time, Xiang Yu wasn’t paying much attention to him and therefore didn’t take note of it; now that he thinks about it, Xiaoxuan seemed to recognize him.

Xiaoxuan didn’t say, and Xiang Yu wouldn’t ask further.

After all, everyone has their secrets, and even if they are brothers in arms, there are still some things that can’t be shared, just like how Xiang Yu is actually a member of the Special Forces and is here on a mission.

He wouldn’t casually reveal this—not that he didn’t trust the brothers around him—but speaking out would bring no benefit to them and could only cause a rift in their camaraderie.

Tie Zhuzi took them out, and they hadn’t returned even after eight in the evening, probably having too much fun outside.

Long Wu stood there with a sullen face, not speaking a word.

She had thought her brother was different from others, but it turned out he was the same sort.

When she had been with her brother in the past, Long Zaitian never showed any desire to play.

It seems the moment she stopped supervising him, he started to run wild.

“It’s all because of you leading him astray,” Long Wu dropped the sentence and then went back to her own room.

Xiang Yu and Xiaoxuan exchanged a smile and said no more.

In the past, Long Zaitian had put on the act of a responsible brother in front of Long Wu, but now that she wasn’t around, he felt no worries.

What man doesn’t like to have fun?

“Brother, it’s about time.

Let’s set off,” Xiaoxuan said, glancing at his watch.

Xiang Yu looked at his watch as well and nodded.

It was just past eight, and according to his usual habits, he was accustomed to being late.

Today, Xiaoxuan seemed a bit more eager.

“Let’s go,” Xiang Yu said, standing up and heading outside.

Although the wounds on Xiang Yu’s body were still painful, simple movements weren’t a problem.

It had to be said that the medicine from Liu Yuhang and his son was indeed effective.

No wonder the heir of Xishan Pharmaceuticals would willingly perform a painful deception just to get his hands on these prescriptions.

If their ancestral medical techniques could be promoted through the media, they would surely astonish the entire world—these are the treasures passed down through five thousand years of Chinese heritage.

Xiaoxuan drove, speeding towards headquarters.

But when they arrived at the headquarters, it was only just past eight-thirty.

Xiang Yu led Xiaoxuan towards Zhong Huashan’s villa, which was located right at the center of the entire estate, and was also the most luxurious and imposing place.

The surrounding glass was made of bullet-proof material, and the interior decoration was to the extreme of opulence.

If Zhong Huashan wasn’t back, it was rare for anyone to enter.

As Xiang Yu and his companion approached the villa, he thought he would be stopped for a search, but the people standing to one side just smiled at him without any intention of intervening.

Xiang Yu’s name had already spread throughout the headquarters, and it was very likely that he would become the boss’s personal bodyguard, with a status only second to the boss himself.

If possible, they would try not to provoke such a person.

Seeing the way they looked at him, Xiang Yu still found it somewhat unfamiliar.

In the past, he always played the role of the underdog, the target of others’ oppression, and now he found himself playing the part of the mighty through borrowed power.

“Captain, the boss specifically instructed us, if you arrived, to go directly to find him on the second floor,” one of the men dressed in black said obsequiously while standing in front of Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu nodded, then he and Xiaoxuan proceeded upstairs.

There was no denying that the feeling of being revered was amazing.

No wonder so many people yearn for power—it’s a psychological delight.

Xiang Yu walked directly to the second floor from the staircase.

At the second-floor landing, four people stood guard.

Upon seeing Xiang Yu, they all nodded their heads at him in greeting.

One of them even led Xiang Yu straight to Zhong Huashan’s office.

These men were all Zhong Huashan’s bodyguards, exuding their own arrogance; but now, they were all extremely respectful toward Xiang Yu, which showed just how powerful this head bodyguard was.

Perhaps one day, Xiang Yu would become their direct boss.

Xiang Yu didn’t bother with pleasantries either and swaggered into Zhong Huashan’s room.

When Xiang Yu entered the room, he stopped short.

He saw Zhong Huashan sitting in a large chair, leisurely smoking a cigarette.

On the sofa opposite him sat two people.

One was Ding Yongwei, while the other, sitting up straight, was Luo Lin.

It was apparent that Luo Lin was somewhat restrained and nervous as he sat there.

Upon seeing Xiang Yu’s arrival, Ding Yongwei, who had been caught off guard at first, chuckled and said, “What a surprise today.

I’ve heard that Xiang Yu likes to be late no matter the occasion.

What happened—did you kick that bad habit?”

Luo Lin took the opportunity to add, “It’s true, he used to be late all the time.

He was a person who didn’t keep to schedules.”

Ignoring the two, Xiang Yu stepped forward and said to Zhong Huashan, “Boss, what’s going on here?

Weren’t these two already arrested?”

Zhong Huashan smiled and then gestured toward a distant sofa, “Take a seat first.”

Xiang Yu made himself comfortable without any polite refusals and went straight over to sit opposite Ding Yongwei, while Xiao Xuan stood behind Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu didn’t show the same restraint as Luo Lin; instead, he leaned back casually, looking more like a gang leader at that moment.

Seeing Xiang Yu like this made Ding Yongwei extremely uncomfortable.

To Ding Yongwei, Xiang Yu was just a lucky nobody who hadn’t been there long but was now sitting on equal footing with him.

Zhong Huashan took a puff of his cigarette and then said slowly, “You’ll know what’s really going on soon enough.”

Zhong Huashan didn’t elaborate, and Xiang Yu didn’t ask further.

Right then, he felt that Zhong Huashan had been somewhat hasty in apprehending Ding Yongwei, thinking maybe all of this was part of Zhong Huashan’s strategy.

With that thought, Xiang Yu couldn’t help but take another look at Zhong Huashan; the man was a cunning old fox, not easy to deal with.

“Xiang Yu, about the competition for head bodyguard, you should give up,” Ding Yongwei seized the chance to throw Xiang Yu off balance.

“Do you know who Tie Sanjiang is?

Don’t end up losing your own life trying to take him down.

It’s not worth it.”

“I’m not one to give up, and I always see things through to the end.

Many have doubted me before, only to end up with their necks broken,” Xiang Yu retorted bluntly.

“Hmph, you’re clueless.

Wait until a week’s time is up, and you’ll realize just how naive you are.

By then, I genuinely hope you’re still alive,” said Luo Lin confidently.

During the day, he thought his life had reached a dead end.

Ding Yongwei’s downfall signified his own, leading him to feel some resentment towards Ding Yongwei for his impulsiveness.

But after they were caught, things did not go as he had anticipated.

He expected the boss to interrogate them harshly, perhaps even subject them to severe torture.

However, to his surprise, the boss hadn’t laid a finger on them but had instead discreetly transferred them here.

At that point, he guessed it must have been a play put on by the boss and Ding Yongwei’s elder brother…
