Chapter 57: Cruel Choice

  Since meeting just now, Wang Haodong has been feeling that Liu Cuie is very angry, as if she had faced a friend's betrayal, it was strange, the word "betrayal" actually appeared in her heart.

  Wang Hao Dong worried about her anger, and at the same time, he quietly felt a little happy. She actually cared about him too. This showed that between the two of them, there was some familiarity, which made him occupy a certain position in her heart. Even if this position was very low, it still meant that he had left something in her life.

  An awkward silence fell between them. Liu Cuie snubbed out her cigarette and asked, "I'll only ask you one thing: have you ever had the idea of using me?"

  Wang Haodong hastily shook his head, "I haven't stooped to the point of taking advantage of you. Even if our gang has taken your business and become a thorn in your side, developing into a bloody conflict, I absolutely won't take advantage of you, nor have I actively approached you."

  "I act with integrity and honesty; if I speak falsely, may heaven strike me down."

  "Alright." Liu Cuie looked into Wang Haodong's eyes, "I choose to believe you, but please forgive me for giving you a cruel choice."

  Wang Haodong didn't know what she was going to say, and slightly furrowed his brow. She looked at Wang Haodong, paused for a moment, then said: "I admit it, our previous acquaintance, I considered you as a friend, but we are from different camps, I can't be friends with an enemy, I'll give you a choice."

  "First, leave Wang Kai alone and stop getting involved in our disputes with him. You and I can still be friends. Second, if you continue to side with Wang Kai against us, our friendship is over. In the future, whether we fight or make peace won't be up to us individually."

  Wang Hao Dong fell into deep thought, took a deep breath, and quickly made his decision. "Sorry, I will advance and retreat with Wang Kai. If he chooses to negotiate and reconcile with you, I respect his choice and will make my own choice. If he continues to be an enemy of yours, I'm very sorry."

  "But in my heart, you will still be my friend, I won't hurt you."

  After hearing Wang Haodong's words, Liu Cuie smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your choice, thank you for your promise."

  The two fell silent next.

  Liu Cuie perhaps had been sitting for a long time, and she slightly swayed her body. Her small western-style suit was V-necked, and the exposed part of her shirt revealed a plump and bulging curve, as well as a patch of fair skin.

  Wang Haodong's eyes were somewhat unbridled, and Liu Cuie could sense it. Her face turned red, and she suddenly stood up, muttering: "You men are all the same."

  Liu Cuie strode away, leaving Wang Haodong alone in the vast and spacious great hall.

  Wang Haodong picked up the tea and took a sip, trying his best to listen to the voices in Wu Bin's office, but unfortunately found that the soundproofing effect of that office was very good. He had no idea what they were doing or saying inside.

  Recalling Liu Cuie's offer, Wang Haodong was indeed in a dilemma. However, he had already made his choice, and everything now depended on what Wang Kai would do next.

  Wang Haodong secretly hoped that Wang Kai and Wu Bin could reconcile, come up with a reasonable plan, and neither side would continue to fight, no one else would be injured or killed, and he and Liu Cuie could still remain friends.

  However, Wang Haodong understood that this hope was very slim.

  After about ten minutes, Wang Haodong was getting anxious and was just about to stand up and stretch his body when the office door opened. Wang Haodong turned his head to look and saw Wang Kai walking out from inside. His face looked very gloomy and somewhat ferocious, it was clear that things hadn't gone well.

  The gate was not closed, and Wang Haodong's gaze fell on a young man, about 24 or 25 years old, wearing a white suit, with a big bun on his head, pale face, looking like he was malnourished, with fatigue in the corners of his eyes, anyone could tell at a glance that he was worn out from excessive drinking and womanizing.

  The large office, just him alone, no need to think more, Wang Haodong also knew that this person was Wu Bin, the boss of Taoyuan Entertainment Club, and also their arch-nemesis.

  The office door with a spring hinge slowly closed, and Wu Bin's figure disappeared from Wang Hao Dong's line of sight. He walked forward to come to Wang Kai's side and asked in a low voice: "What did he say?"

  "Give me 200,000 and I won't touch any casino business from now on."

  Wang Haodong asked tentatively: "Looking at you, it seems like there's no other choice."

  "The money is too little, not enough sincerity." Wang Kai took a deep breath, "I want one million, he only agreed to give thirty thousand, I refused."

  Wang Kai still has some status and face, Wu Bin takes out 300,000 to settle the matter. If it were Wang Haodong, he might agree, but Wang Kai is also a figure in Linyuan Town, so in order to confront Wu Bin, he would give his subordinates over 1 million, not just 300,000 to dismiss them.

  "What did he say?"

  Wang Kai smiled and said, "Everyone has their own strengths."

  Although these four words are very plain, they carry a bloody and murderous aura. Wang Haodong can feel it, and next, they will engage in a fierce battle. In this process, it is inevitable that someone will be injured or even die.

  Wang Kai made his choice, and Wang Haodong could only nod and say, "Then let's just rely on our own abilities."

  Just as they were about to leave, Wu Bin's office door creaked open.

  "King Kai, stay behind."

  Two people turned their faces, Wu Bin walked out of the office, "We are from the same place, when we were young, we played together, when we went to school, you were one grade higher than me, can be said to be my senior, so to speak, I couldn't see your face when I looked up, but I could see it when I looked down."

  Wang Kai interrupted him and said, "What do you want to say?"

  "Everyone comes out to mix and mingle, seeking wealth, fame and status. It's said that harmony is precious, but personally I dislike all the fighting and killing. Being able to talk things through is the best, however, in the world of Jianghu, fighting and killing are a necessary means. Although I detest it in my heart, there are times when I have no choice but to use these methods."

  Wu Bin looked at Wang Haodong and said: "I heard that in your team, there is a very capable fighter named Wang Haodong. Is it this person next to you?"

  Wang Kai frowned, "I found that you like to beat around the bush when speaking. If there's something to say, just say it straightforwardly, it won't delay everyone's time."

  "You're a military man who likes to use violence, so I'll give you a chance to show off. If we continue to fight like this, it's hard to know when to stop and we might get caught by the authorities. So let's settle this with a battle instead. Each of us will send five people to the abandoned paper mill in the eastern suburbs."

  "If you lose, you will never touch the gambling industry again; if you win, your place can continue to operate."

  Wu Bin's face showed a hint of playful smile, as if he was engaged in an interesting game, "Make your choice."

  Wang Kai replied without hesitation: "I agree."

  Wu Bin burst out laughing and clapped his hands, "Great, I'll invite a middleman to witness it. We'll play a game with some real stakes using Jianghu methods. I'll decide the location and method, you choose the time."

  "In ten days."

  "Okay, then in ten days."

  After agreeing with Wu Bin on the way to resolve the issue, as well as the time and place, Wang Haodong and Wang Kai didn't stay much longer. On their way back, they no longer saw Lazi and others blocking them, as if they had become air.

  Wang Haodong knew that Wu Bin must have made arrangements, and since there was a new solution, they would not obstruct anymore, otherwise it would be disrespect to the boss.

  As they left the hall, Wang Kai whispered: "To be honest, this time's matter is a bit coincidental, I haven't even discussed it yet, Wu Bin took the initiative to ask for it."

  Wang Kai had originally planned to find Wu Bin and have a decisive battle to settle the matter once and for all. However, during the negotiations, he didn't dare bring it up, but unexpectedly, when it was time to leave, Wu Bin voluntarily proposed this solution, which happened to be exactly what Wang Kai had in mind.

  Both sides are very satisfied with this solution, otherwise, if they just keep fighting, it will involve too many people and things, even if they have a relationship network on top of each other, it's easy to cause problems. It's better to solve it once and for all, and since the line has been drawn, we should prepare for the duel in ten days.

  He got on the carriage and King Dahai hastily inquired about it, learned about the way of the duel, patted his thigh and said: "Alright, then ten days later, let's overthrow them."

  "With a ten-day preparation time, Wu Bin will definitely find an expert and have a showdown with us. We can't be careless."

  Just as Wang Kai was speaking, Wang Haodong's mobile phone rang. He took a look at the number and found it was the fixed telephone of the village store. He answered in a hurry, "Hello, who is this?"

  "Hao Dong, it's me, Shu Fang."

  Zhang Shufang's voice came over the phone, "I'm looking for you about something."

  "What's going on?" Wang Haodong asked hastily.

  "Qianqian and I are angry and don't want to take the college entrance exam, what should we do?"

  Wang Haodong felt dizzy, remembering that tomorrow was the 5th, Zhang Qian would go to school to pick up her admission ticket, and tomorrow afternoon she would take the school bus together to the city to confirm the exam venue. The day after tomorrow was the college entrance examination.

  What's wrong with her and why doesn't she want to go? If it's really like that, then aren't the three years a waste of time?

  "What made you angry?" Wang Haodong asked hastily.

  "It's not a big deal, anyway." Zhang Shufang sighed and said: "Are you busy with your work? Can you help me persuade her?"

  "Alright, I'll be back later."

  Hanging up the phone, Wang Haodong told Wang Kai that something had come up at home and he needed to head back to Liujiayuan for a bit. Wang Kai thought for a moment before saying, "Alright, Haodong, you go ahead and take care of things. Take these next few days to rest and recharge, and in a week's time, I'll send a car to pick you up. At that point, we can start making plans and give them a crushing defeat."

  Wang Haodong nodded, "Alright, give me a call if you need anything."

  Wang Kai said: "The sea, drive to Liujiayuan."

  Wang Haodong shook his head and said, "No need, I'll find a car to go back. You guys go to Nanqiao and take care of Lele and Haoqiang. The two of them are quite reckless, if we don't keep an eye on them, they might cause trouble."

  "Alright then, be careful on your way back." Wang Kai didn't insist, and Wang Haodong got off the car, hailed a pedicab, and headed to Liujiayuan Village.

  On the way, Wang Haodong was very puzzled in his heart. What's wrong with Zhang Qian? Is it really a small matter? He thought about it but didn't understand, so he simply stopped thinking about it and waited until he got home to figure it out.

  The weather in June became scorching, the air was filled with a burning smell, and it was time to harvest wheat. Along the roadside fields, agricultural harvesters and combine harvesters could be seen everywhere. When these machines were operating, the golden wheat fell down one after another.

  The car was driving on the bumpy and broken road, Wang Haodong's body was also shaking up and down with the bumps on the road. Alas, taking a bus in such a place is simply a kind of torture.

  Finally arrived at the village entrance, Wang Haodong hurriedly got off the car, paid the money, rubbed his sore butt, and was about to take out a cigarette to smoke, but found that he had no cigarettes. Conveniently, there was a store by the road, so he went in to buy some cigarettes, picked up a few bottles of drinks, chatted with the owner for a few sentences, and then headed back to the village directly.
