  Chapter 48: The threat after dispersing

  Tonight's game, still playing Pai Gow first, Lei Weibin as the banker, fought for three hours, neither losing nor winning, then played Exploding Gold Flower, several hours later, until 3 am, everyone didn't have much to lose or win.

  "It seems like it's going to be a draw tonight, I'm tired, let's just disperse." Lei Weibin rubbed his eyes, which were red and had some dark circles under them, looking very exhausted.

  "Let's go, if we're not going to play then let's just forget it."

  "Go ahead and go back to rest."

  The other players also didn't want to play anymore, so they left the scene. Lei Weibin was the last one to leave, and before he did, he chatted with Wang Kai for a bit, then also left the scene.

  It was almost the same as yesterday, when Le Wei Bin left, his driver came to pick him up. After the car disappeared from view, Wang Hao Dong and others who had come out to see him off turned around and went back into the house.

  Knock knock knock.

  A sudden, urgent footsteps came from behind, Wang Haodong hastily turned his face around, only to see more than a dozen people wearing black clothes, striding out of an alley and coming up behind them.

  "It's Wu Bin's man." Wang Kai said in a low voice, and had already pulled out a dagger from his waist.

  Liu Lele and others, seeing the sudden arrival of enemy hands, also became vigilant. Hao Qiang was very quick-witted and knew that they were all unarmed, so he hastily entered the main courtyard, took out the weapons, and brought out the large wolf dog to guard the scene.

  This big wolf dog is over a meter high, with a large body and fierce expression, barking at the people who came, ready to pounce out at any time, still very intimidating.

  "Don't be so nervous."

  The leader of the group, a man in his thirties with a round face and a slightly chubby appearance, spoke up. He had a scar on his forehead that stretched from the left corner of his eyebrow to the bridge of his nose, about four centimeters long, resembling a centipede. As he spoke, the scar twitched lightly, giving him a rather ferocious look.

  "Scoundrel."

  Wang Kai stood out from the crowd, standing at the forefront of his own troops, looking at that person and coldly smiling: "At midnight, so many people come to my side, are you thinking of having some fun?"

  "If you want to play, I would have taken action earlier." The man sneered and took two steps forward, coming to Wang Kai's side. "We're all from the same place, we can't avoid each other, Brother Bin doesn't want to be ruthless, so let me give you a final ultimatum."

  Wang Kai put away his dagger and said, "Oh? Go ahead and speak."

  "Lin Yuan Town can only have one such place, and that's Bin Ge's Peach Garden. Others will never be able to open a similar establishment. Wang Kai, if you engage in other professions, I won't interfere and will even support you. But if you continue to be obstinate, you'll inevitably end up with a miserable outcome, possibly even losing limbs."

  Threat, this is the threat of Chi Guo Guo. Wang Hao Dong and Wang Kai listened to these words, without any unusual movement. Liu Le Le and others have become furious, shouting: "Lai Zi, what are you talking about? You just licked Wu Bin's ass, and you got this position, what a joke?"

  "Little brat, who do you think you are? I'm talking to your boss, what right do you have to interrupt?"

  The old man's face was full of anger, pointing at Liu Lele and saying: "I can open your skull once, there will be a second time, kid, you'd better be careful."

  Liu Lele jumped up and shouted: "Mom's, let's have a one-on-one fight."

  "Duel?" Lai Zi burst out laughing, "Little rascal, have you been watching too many [martial arts dramas]?"

  "There isn't."

  "Hey, I've come to meet you." Behind the beggar emerged a large man, about 180 cm tall, with broad shoulders and a rounded waist, holding an iron club in his hand, looking very intimidating. As soon as he walked out, he gave off an oppressive aura.

  Liu Lele's stature was much weaker in comparison, and compared to the tall and strong Han, he looked like a sprout, but he didn't pretend to be timid, instead, he walked out with big strides, with an air of determination to fight to the death.

  "Le Le, come back!" Wang Kai shouted loudly.

  Liu Lele stopped in her tracks, "Kai Ge, if they're afraid of losing face, let's just get one and call it a day. If we get two, that's a profit."

  "Haha, you've got a great team there, none of them listen to you." Lai Zi started mocking from the side.

  Wang Kai angrily said: "I told you to come back."

  Seeing Wang Kai getting angry, Liu Lele stomped her feet and reluctantly returned to the back of Wang Haodong.

  Wang Kai turned his face and looked at Lai Zi, saying: "Lai Zi, I have only one sentence to ask you to convey to Wu Bin. Since I've taken this path, I must achieve results and will absolutely not give up halfway."

  "Alright, you're a rare breed." Lai Zi smiled wryly and said: "If you don't drink the toast, you'll be punished with another drink. This is my evaluation of you. Also, I will pass on your words to Bin Ge, hoping that you can still see the sun three days later. Farewell."

  After Lai Zi finished speaking, he turned around and waved his hand. The people he brought with him crowded around him, and the group quickly left, soon disappearing from sight.

  "Damn it, I'll kill him." Liu Lele cursed to himself and said to Wang Kai: "Brother Kai, I've already figured out his address. Later, I'll go stake out his place and take care of him."

  Snap.

  Wang Kai responded to Liu Lele with a slap in the face, leaving him stunned and bewildered.

  "Do you know why I hit you?" Wang Kai asked with wide eyes, enunciating each word.

  Liu Lele remained silent, while Wang Kai hummed a tune. "Although we are brothers and can joke around in private, you must understand the rules in situations like just now."

  "Brother Kai, I was wrong." Liu Lele responded with a hint of grievance. He also understood that when the big brother spoke, it's best for younger brothers not to interrupt, but he couldn't help standing up in anger.

  "Go back." Wang Kai went into the big yard first.

  Everyone entered the courtyard, and Wang Kai gathered people to the large hall on the first floor. After scattering the cigarette ashes, he said: "You all saw the specifics, Wu Bin is about to take action against us, let's discuss our opinions."

  Hao Qiang shouted: "Kai Ge, we're not afraid of them, at worst we'll die together."

  Biaozi nodded, "Yes, Kai Ge, no big deal, we'll just fight it out."

  "It seems that none of you have any confidence in me, it's all just a gamble, a desperate attempt. Fish die and nets break." Wang Kai smiled wryly and turned to Wang Haodong: "Haodong, what do you think?"

  "I saw the gap."

  Wang Haodong bluntly said, smoking a cigarette, "Wu Bin's people are very disciplined, not like us who are so slack. Moreover, he currently has the upper hand, and to him, we're just small fry that can be crushed at will."

  As he said this, others seemed to want to refute him. Wang Haodong waved his hand and directly interrupted their words: "It's precisely because Wu Bin looks down on us and thinks we're not worthy that he gave us an opportunity."

  "What opportunity?"

  Wang Haodong smiled, "A chance to turn over, he didn't take us seriously, but didn't know that the dike of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant hole. The ants were small and pitiful compared to the solid dike, but day after day of erosion, only needed to gnaw out a small hole, could make the dike collapse."

  "That's right." Liu Lele echoed in agreement.

  Wang Kai asked: "Hao Dong, do you have a specific plan of action?"

  Wang Haodong shook his head: "Not for the time being, but Wu Bin is going to use force to suppress us, this is beyond doubt. Let me think carefully and come up with a method before discussing it with everyone."

  "Everyone, disperse and go rest. Be careful for the next two days. Wu Bin will definitely take action against us in these two days. Don't be careless and must pay attention to protecting yourself. If there's nothing important, don't leave this big yard."

  After Wang Kai asked for Wang Haodong's opinion, he didn't ask anyone else for their opinions. He knew that others couldn't provide good ideas. After speaking, he got up and went to rest first.

  "Kai Ge has a look of great enemy, it's really unnecessary." Liu Lele murmured and also got up to rest.

  "Ah, yes, that Lai Zi is nothing but a piece of trash. In the past when he wasn't hanging out with Wu Bin, whenever he saw me, he'd still call me Brother Biao. Just now, if I didn't need to maintain Kai's image, I would've gone up and slapped him already."

  Wang Haodong didn't know whether what he said was true or not, and didn't comment on it. He went to rest directly, but he didn't expect that the other person was just bragging. When he woke up in the morning, the other person had disappeared.

  In the morning, Wang Haodong never slept in late. Breakfast was a must, unless he was too tired to move and occasionally skipped a meal. He got up, washed his face, went out to buy breakfast, and when he came back, called everyone to eat, but found that Biaozi was nowhere to be seen.

  Wang Kai's face was somewhat gloomy, and he asked the gatekeeper Haoqiang: "Where did Biaozi go?"

  "I didn't know, when it was almost dawn, he got up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom, so I opened the door for him to go out. Later, I felt a bit sleepy, so I dozed off for a while."

  Hao Qiang scratched his head and recalled, "After that guy left, it seemed like he never came back."

  Liu Lele jumped up, slammed her hand on the table and shouted: "Damn it, he must have escaped at the last minute, that cheap person."

  "Don't be so arbitrary." Wang Kai waved his hand, took out his mobile phone, and tried to dial Biao's number, but found that the call couldn't get through, the other party had already turned off their phone.

  "What time did Biaozi leave?" Wang Haodong asked Haoqiang.

  Hao Qiang thought for a moment and said: "It was probably around five o'clock. I checked my watch just a few minutes before he left."

  Wang Haodong furrowed his brow and said, "Let's wait for a while, maybe he had something urgent to attend to and will be back soon."

  Wang Kai bit his lip and said, "Everyone eat, don't think so much."

  Then everyone started eating, but Wang Hao Dong noticed that Biao Zi's two younger brothers seemed a bit distracted, exchanging glances while eating and appearing as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.

  Wang Haodong had a bad premonition.

  As expected, after dinner, the two young men said to Wang Kai: "Brother Kai, we have something to say."

  "I know what you want to say."

  Wang Kai puffed on his cigarette, scanning the crowd with a glance. "Wu Bin is not someone to be trifled with. If you follow me, you won't have any sense of security. I'm saying it again now - if anyone doesn't want to follow me, they can leave right now. I absolutely won't force anyone."

  "Even if you leave me, as long as you don't follow Wu Bin to deal with me, we are still brothers. But if you side with Wu Bin or provide him with any information, then you are my archenemy, Wang Kai."

  Wang Kai's words were powerful and sonorous, and after he finished speaking, he turned to the others and said: "Now it's your turn to make a choice."

  Liu Lele shouted: "Kai Ge, I support you. Because we are brothers, I want to work together with you."

  Hao Qiang said: "Kai Ge, I'll stay behind, I'm not a coward."

  A look of deep thought appeared on Wang Dahai's face.

  "Sorry, Ke Ge..." The two young men looked embarrassed.

  "Never mind, I understand."

  Wang Kai interrupted them, pulled out a wad of money from his pocket and said: "The world is full of danger, I can understand you, this is one thousand yuan, take it, my ability, for now, can only give you that much, take care."

  Two yellow hairs left, and everyone else stayed.

  "I gave you all a choice, you can stay, let me be moved, no matter whether I, Wang Kai, can make a name for myself or not, from now on we are brothers who share life and death."

  Wang Kai excitedly said, stretching out his palm, Wang Hao Dong, Liu Le Le, Hao Qiang and Da Hai, each stretched out a palm, and pressed it together with his hand.
