Chapter 115: Rest Assured, I’ve Got This
Hearing Xu Fangcheng’s words, Qin Haowen, although somewhat conflicted inside, still gave Xu Fangcheng a flattering response, “With Young Master Xu’s strength and methods, snagging the prize will be a piece of cake. Just don’t forget about your little brother here.”
“Haha, once I make my move and succeed, you’ll definitely reap the benefits,” Xu Fangcheng said with a sneering smile, generously promising Qin Haowen.
“Then here’s to Young Master Xu’s triumphant victory,” Qin Haowen sarcastically raised his wine glass, extending it towards Xu Fangcheng.
Xu Fangcheng also picked up his glass, casually clinking it against Qin Haowen’s.
Both tilted their heads back, about to down their drinks, when suddenly, the door to the private room was thrown open with a smack.
Iron Hand Master strode into the room with a stern expression.
Several scantily clad women shrunk back in fright, and Qin Haowen, as if facing a great enemy, forced himself to stay calm and roared at Iron Hand Master, “Who the hell are you, barging into The Grand Qin Hotel like this? Are you tired of living or something?”
“Qin, don’t worry, he’s one of mine, and a super powerful martial artist at that!” Xu Fangcheng stood up, quietly speaking to Qin Haowen by his side.
“Oh, one of our own? Please, take a seat!” Upon learning of Iron Hand Master’s identity, Qin Haowen’s attitude changed immediately, and he invited Iron Hand Master to sit with a hint of politeness.
Although Xu Fangcheng had cleared up Qin Haowen’s misunderstanding, seeing Iron Hand Master barge in so recklessly also displeased him greatly.
Both the Xu Family and the Qin Family were super wealthy and influential clans; every servant had to abide by the rules of servitude. If a servant’s actions were improper, it reflected poorly on the master and was grounds for ridicule.
Xu Fangcheng was very unhappy with Iron Hand Master’s hasty intrusion, but Iron Hand Master couldn’t be considered a servant of the Xu Family. He was a guest elder, and as a prestigious martial artist, Xu Fangcheng could only command him and had no authority to punish him; he had to be polite to Iron Hand Master.
“Iron Hand Master, what’s the emergency? Why did you rush over here in such a fluster?” Xu Fangcheng asked sternly, his face stiff as he addressed Iron Hand Master.
“Young Master, please step outside for a moment,” Iron Hand Master said with a grave face to Xu Fangcheng.
Seeing Iron Hand Master’s expression, Xu Fangcheng sensed that something was wrong and, without hesitation, stood up and walked towards the private room’s entrance.
Iron Hand Master immediately followed behind Xu Fangcheng, and once Xu Fangcheng stepped out, he did as well, then with a bang, closed the door to the private room.
“What’s going on? Didn’t I tell you to go capture Xu Fan? Did you get him, or did something go awry?” Xu Fangcheng asked cautiously.
“Young Master, I was ordered to capture Xu Fan and that little brat Ted. Everything was going smoothly, but then a complication arose. I discovered that the situation in Zhonghai is rather chaotic. Quite a few unidentified martial artists have appeared within Zhonghai City’s borders, their intentions unclear, but none of them pushovers. Even people from the Flame Dragon Organization are getting restless. Concerned for your safety as you’re unprotected, I rushed over here. If anything were to happen to you, I, Iron Hand, couldn’t bear the responsibility,” Iron Hand Master fed Xu Fangcheng the excuse he’d prepared in advance.
“Damn, how could there be so many martial artists in Zhonghai City? What’s going on?” Xu Fangcheng’s expression fluctuated.
The Xu Family’s influence mainly stretched over Dragon City, and although they held some sway in Zhonghai, they were considerably weaker compared to the Qin Family, a native power in Zhonghai.
So, hearing Iron Hand Master speak of the chaotic situation in Zhonghai, Xu Fangcheng’s heart was strung tight, feeling like his life could be under threat at any moment.
“You can’t leave my side now. I’m going to ask Qin Haowen about the situation in Zhonghai,” Xu Fangcheng instructed Iron Hand Master.
“What about Xu Fan? I’ve been staking out his location for several hours now. I was about to catch him!” Iron Hand Master said regretfully.
“What’s more important, Xu Fan or I?” Xu Fangcheng said, displeased.
“Yes! Your safety is my top priority at all times,” Iron Hand Master bowed slightly, speaking respectfully to Xu Fangcheng.
Xu Fangcheng nodded, opened the door, and walked over to Qin Haowen with Iron Hand Master trailing closely behind.
“Qin, you’re the big fish of Zhonghai City. Tell me, has anything strange or out of the ordinary happened recently, any mysterious martial artists showing up?” Xu Fangcheng asked Qin Haowen cautiously.
“There has indeed been such an incident. Just yesterday, our subsidiary’s security team discussed beefing up protection, because there have been several cases in Zhonghai City lately where people were drained dry, and the head of Jin Hui Group was blown to bits at the docks. Now the whole of Zhonghai City is in a state of panic,” Qin Haowen recalled the news from the last few days, his voice filled with trepidation.
“Damn, it’s a good thing Iron Hand Master warned me in time. Qin, I’ve just remembered there is a load of business awaiting my attention back in Dragon City. It’s getting late, and I should head back too. Next time I’m in Zhonghai, we’ll drink and catch up properly,” Xu Fangcheng’s expression shifted as he resolved to head home.
On this trip to Zhonghai City, he had brought only Iron Hand Master with him. If anything unforeseen were to happen, Iron Hand Master might not even be able to protect him. But back in Dragon City, it was a different story; with the Xu Family’s large influence there, even martial artists wouldn’t dare cause trouble. Besides, other clans’ martial artists were present to maintain order. On the surface, the four major clans might always be at each other’s throats, but when faced with outsiders, they would unite in an instant, keeping them at bay outside Dragon City.
“Young Master Xu, we at the Grand Qin have excellent security measures. There’s no need to be so hasty,” Qin Haowen feigned an attempt to persuade him to stay.
“I simply must attend to official matters and cannot linger any longer,” Xu Fangcheng said with feigned regret. Turning, he noticed a ‘Beautiful Ladies’ magazine on the sofa, grabbed it, and said, “Qin, you’ll have to watch this beauty for me. I’ll be back for her,”
“You can count on me, Young Master Xu. I’ll keep a close eye on her in your absence,” Qin Haowen patted his chest, appearing noble and selfless while secretly thinking, once I’ve had my fill and grow tired of her, then I’ll let you have her—it won’t be too late. No matter how awesome Xu the Young Master is, he’ll still be driving my second-hand car.
“Great! Good brother, make sure to keep a tight watch on this beauty for me. She has truly piqued my interest. When I return to Zhonghai, I plan to take her to The Grand Qin Hotel to stay in the Mandarin Duck Presidential Suite!” Xu Fangcheng didn’t forget to give a final, earnest reminder before he left.
“Ok! You can rest assured when I’m on the job!” Qin Haowen assured him reliably.
