Hong Kong film: People in Wo Luen Shing, summoning the King of Fighters.

Upon entering, I saw seventy or eighty people sitting in the lobby on the first floor, completely filling the tables. None of them were carrying anything.

Iori Yagami and his henchmen stood opposite them, their eyes coldly fixed on them. Oura Kuro sat at the second table to my left, surrounded by his trusted lieutenant, Dongguan Zai, and several capable underlings. It was clear he valued his safety highly.

"Brother Luo is here!" the short mule who led Jialuo in shouted. More than a hundred people turned to look. Iori Yagami's cold expression softened slightly, and he went from leaning against something to standing up, welcoming Chen Jialuo.

"Brother Luo!"

The other henchmen and dwarf mules also called out "Brother Luo" one after another. The excitement, joy, and anger at what Da Puhei had done were all seen by Chen Jia 14 Luo.

Chen Jialu smiled at them. Yagami Iori came up to Chen Jialu and glanced at Daiura Kuro, saying, "That's how it is. They each ordered a one-dollar glass of water, clearly looking for trouble."

Chen Jialuo knew that Iori Yagami was in a difficult position, and that Daiura Kuro had taken advantage of this, which was why he dared to cause trouble. He said to Iori Yagami, "Wait for me to handle this. You did the right thing."

He immediately walked up to Daipu Hei, with Yagami Iori and the other henchmen following behind him. Seeing Chen Jialuo approach, Daipu Hei picked at his ear piercing, his fingers covered in yellow earwax. He then blew on it in Chen Jialuo's direction.

Iori Yagami immediately rushed up from behind, spewing out his national treasure, "You bastard! I'll fuck your dad's ass, I'll shove your ass out your ass, you idiot!"

The other underlings also started cursing, and Da Pu Hei's underlings were not to be outdone. They slammed their hands on the table, pointed at Chen Jialuo and his group, and started spewing vulgarities.

For a time, the entire restaurant was filled with the beauty of traditional Chinese culture.

Chen Jialuo gestured for Iori Yagami to be quiet, and Iori Yagami immediately shut up. His short mule henchmen also stopped.

Da Puhei was surprised by this imposing manner. He had heard that Chen Jialuo was highly skilled and his subordinates were convinced of his abilities, but he did not expect him to be so convinced.

With just one gesture, people immediately fall silent. How is that any different from the military?

But Daipu Hei wasn't afraid. He and Chen Jialuo belonged to the same gang. Unless Chen Jialuo really wanted to leave the Wo Luen Shing triad, he wouldn't fight him. Otherwise, if he just sat there wasting time without making a move, Chen Jialuo could only suffer in silence.

He stared coldly at Chen Jialuo. He had gathered his brothers here today in a grand procession to seek revenge—revenge for the election of the leader.

If it weren't for his meddling, he would have become the new leader of the Wo Luen Shing triad, one of Hong Kong's top triads, long ago!

If he doesn't avenge this, he won't be called Da Pu Hei; he'll be called Hei Da Pu! Damn it!

Da Puhei's eyes were full of anger, but he said with a forced smile, "Crown Prince Luo, how are you going to thank me? On such a busy day, I brought all the brothers from the hall to support you."

Chen Jialuo smiled slightly, then cursed, "Screw you, Da Pu Hei! I can tell what you're up to with my toes. Let me be blunt: trying to mess with me using these underhanded methods won't work. At worst, I'll send my men to your place and cause some trouble. If you won't let me, I won't let you."

As he said this, he reached for the cigarette in his pocket. Iori Yagami reacted quickly, immediately pulling out a shiny lighter and a cigarette, and respectfully lit it for him.

Chen Jialuo took a drag of his cigarette, grinned, and said wickedly, "We can totally fight to the death. I can shut down for a month or two, with Wei Si helping me keep things afloat. Do you have that? At worst, I'll sell some of the big names in my film company—Liu Defa, Zhang Xueyou—I can get at least ten or twenty million for that… Can you hold on any longer?" 430

Da Pu's heart trembled. Could he do it? Of course he couldn't. He didn't have as much money as Chen Jialuo, nor did he have any film and television companies to sell. But what is everyone doing wandering the world for?

It's all about that pride! He'd rather fight for his pride than for the bread! He refused to believe that his small boat, smaller than Chen Jialuo's, couldn't turn around, while Chen Jialuo's big boat could easily do the same!

He sneered, "Who are you threatening, Prince Luo? Who the hell do you think you are? If you're so great, why don't you go to heaven? You want to fight me? Fine! Then bring it on. If I, Da Pu Hei, take one step back, I'll take your surname!"

Chen Jialuo didn't think his two sentences would scare Da Puhei away. He took another puff of his cigarette and said, "Fine, then I'll wait for you to take my surname. I hope you won't leave later."

Before he could finish speaking, the wailing of police sirens blared outside. Da Puhei's face immediately darkened, and he glared fiercely at Chen Jialuo, "Damn it, you're calling the cops to deal with things in our gang!"

Chapter 449 Even the fiercest mouse fears a cat.

Chen Jialuo shrugged and said jokingly, "Family matters are best handled by bringing in the party that stands on the side of fairness and justice."

"Fuck you!" Da Puhei sneered. "But so what if the cops come? I didn't take anything, and I ate something. What's wrong with your restaurant? You think you can get away with not serving customers?!"

As they were talking, the door was pushed open, and Li Feng, wearing a camel-colored overcoat with black clothes underneath, and an ID around his neck that read "Causeway Bay Senior Inspector," appeared.

He was followed by a dozen fully armed police officers, each carrying AK-47s and fully loaded. As soon as they entered, they said, "We received a report from the public that there's trouble here. Who's in charge?! Come out and speak!"

Chen Jialuo pretended not to know him and came out, saying, "Officer, it's me. I'm the one who called the police. I was doing my business here. Da Puhei and a group of his men came over and stood in my restaurant. They just ordered a glass of water and sat here for five or six hours. It scared away all the customers who wanted to come in, and even those who had made reservations didn't dare to come in."

"It's you again, Chen Jialuo. You can't even rest during the last holiday of the New Year." Li Feng glanced at him indifferently, then looked at Da Puhei. "Is what he said true?"

Daipu Hei sneered, "Officer, we're here to show our support. The restaurant is located here, so why are you discriminating against us? Fine, I'll order another vegetable dish for the whole table. We can eat and drink to our hearts' content!"

Li Feng wouldn't tolerate him. The police were the cats, and the gangsters were the mice. It was only natural for the cat to eat the mouse; with power in hand and justice above their heads, truth reigned supreme!

He slapped the Dongguan guy's green-dyed head. "Why did you dye your hair green? Did someone cheat on you?"

The Dongguan guy jumped to his feet, his eyes bloodshot, glaring fiercely at him.

Li Feng slapped him across the face. "What, you're not happy? If you're so capable, why don't you become a police officer and be my boss? Damn it!"

The heavily armed team members behind him all pointed their black gun barrels at Dongguanzi.

The Dongguan guy gritted his teeth and sat down. Li Feng took two steps and slapped another gangster on the head. The gangster didn't dare to get up and just stared at Li Feng.

Li Feng looked around and cursed, "Are you all idiots?! Did you think your big brother invited you here for tea, or to get beaten up by the cops?! I have forty or fifty men outside. I'll give you a chance. Whether you spend the rest of your vacation in the police station or at your warm home, it's up to your big brother to choose."

As he said this, he walked up to Daipu Hei, whose face had darkened, bent down, and leaned close to him, saying, "So, Daipu Hei, do you want to continue drinking tea or pay the bill and leave?"

If his henchmen were really arrested, it would be a net loss for him. He wouldn't have made Chen Jialuo bleed; instead, he would have left his territory vulnerable.

If a well-informed rival came and messed with his place, and the remaining bastards couldn't stop him, he would truly regret it. Thinking of this, Da Puhei took a deep breath, glared fiercely at Chen Jialuo who was smoking, then at Li Feng who looked serious, and finally instructed Dongguanzi, "Pay the bill and let's go."

Dongguan Boy stood up and headed towards the cashier. Da Pu Hei shouted, "Brothers, come back with us!" At this shout, the short mules all stood up.

Even in defeat, one should not lose face. As he left, Da Puhei still uttered harsh words to Chen Jialuo, "Just wait, this is not the end of the matter. One day you will kneel at my feet and call me grandpa."

Chen Jialuo shrugged and said indifferently, "Then I'll wait."

At noon, Big D also made a similar threat to him, and now Big D is here again. The two of them are indeed rivals; even their threats are so similar.

Through the glass window, he saw Da Puhei leading several of Dongguan Zai's henchmen into a flashy black BMW with a pig-head nose, while the other short mules and henchmen got into Wuling vans or Santanas... Some of the slower-coming short mules hadn't even squeezed onto the vehicles yet, so they had to slink behind the vehicles and walk to the bus stop to transfer to two buses to get to the gang.

Chen Jialuo clicked his tongue in admiration, thinking to himself, "So stingy! If you can't afford to buy, you should at least rent."

Yagami Iori's trusted men, who were guarding the venue, also reported the situation through walkie-talkies, saying that everyone had been evacuated, but the delay of the previous few hours had significantly impacted today's performance.

Iori Yagami said that as long as the matter was resolved, the performance bonus could be recovered in the next day or the day after.

Chen Jialuo smiled slightly upon hearing this, quite satisfied with his handling of the situation. A combination of kindness and firmness is an essential skill for any manager. He then invited Li Feng and his brothers to a meal at a restaurant.

But as soon as he said it, he realized that it was inappropriate. With so many people around, it was not convenient to reveal Li Feng's identity.

He then gave Iori Yagami a look, and Iori went to the cashier and took a wad of cash. Under the pretense of seeing Li Feng out, he slipped the money into Li Feng's hand.

Chapter 450 The Malay Girl's Plea for Mercy

Li Feng sighed and offered to return it, but Chen Jialuo feigned anger, saying, "It's a holiday, and I feel bad for troubling you all to make this trip. It's not much, I'll treat them to some barbecue."

Li Feng said, "What's our relationship? That's unnecessary. I'll treat you." Chen Jialuo replied, "You're treating, and I'm treating."

Li Feng inwardly praised Chen Jialuo's good manners and accepted the money. He then turned around and took them out for food and drinks, with Chen Jialuo providing them with refreshments along the way.

He observed the reactions of his subordinates, and seeing that none of them showed any unusual behavior, he immediately smiled. In this era, honest officials were not popular.

After leaving Iori Yagami's place, Chen Jialuo had the nine-headed man drive straight to the long-legged Malay girl's rented apartment. The Malay girl, who was dancing alone at home, was quite surprised to see him.

She bounced right onto Chen Jialuo, who carried her into the house. The house was a mess; beer cans were scattered everywhere, the ashtray was full of cigarette butts, and clothes were piled on the sofa. It was a complete departure from Chen Jialuo's previous idea that women's homes were clean and tidy.

It was such a mess, he didn't even know where to put his feet.

"Why are you here?" the Malay woman asked, reaching out to kiss him, but he blocked her with his hand. "You smell bad, go take a shower first. Did you do all this by yourself?"

The Malay girl sniffed herself, then got off Chen Jialuo somewhat embarrassed. She quickly started tidying up the room, answering Chen Jialuo's question as she did so, "Yes, you haven't contacted me since that night. I don't dare to contact you either, knowing you've been very busy lately, participating in the election for the head of the organization and managing this and that."

"But I can't help being like you, so I resort to smoking and drinking to distract myself. Don't misunderstand, I usually keep my home very clean and tidy. This was an accident."

Hearing her words, Chen Jialuo took off his coat and squatted down to help her pack. Seeing this, the Malay woman quickly stopped him, saying, "I can handle these things. You're someone who does great things; you don't need to pack these."

Chen Jialuo smiled and said, "It's nothing."

But the Malay woman insisted that he sit on the sofa, so Chen Jialuo had no choice but to obey and sit on the sofa watching her tidy up. After she had almost finished tidying up, the Malay woman said she was going to take a shower first, as she was a little dirty.

Chen Jialuo smiled and offered to shower with her, but the Malay girl blushed and refused. When she came out wearing a bathrobe, her hair was half-dry and her long, straight legs were exposed, which made Chen Jialuo feel a surge of heat. He took the cigarette out of his mouth, stubbed it out in the ashtray, and got up to take a shower.

After washing up and entering the bedroom, the Malay girl was already lying in bed, her long, smooth, black hair cascading down her back, her smooth shoulders exposed. Seeing her, Chen Jialuo felt a surge of heat and quickly burrowed under the covers.

A little over an hour later, the battle was over. The Malay girl, her face flushed, nestled in his arms, tracing circles on his chest with one hand, and asked curiously, "Brother Luo, have you ever thought about marriage?"

There it is again.

Jialuo glanced at her and asked, "The truth, or a lie?"

The Malay girl thought for a moment and said, "Listen to the lies first, then listen to the truth."

Jialuo said, "I did think about lying."

The Malay woman's smile vanished instantly. She forced a smile and asked, "And the truth?"

Seeing her expression, Jialuo suddenly changed his mind and said, "I've thought about it."

The Malay girl's heart pounded upon hearing this. She lightly punched his chest twice, then couldn't help but laugh, saying, "You're so naughty. If you've thought about it, just say so. Why make up a lie?"

Chen Jialuo smiled but didn't answer. He put his hands behind his head and looked at the snow-white ceiling. The snow had been thick a few days ago, but the sun had been shining brightly these past two days, and the temperature had risen, melting the snow into water.

Water seeped into the ceiling through the cracks, staining the snow-white ceiling with the colors of blooming plum blossoms. He couldn't help but think that this hotel was so expensive for one night, why didn't they check it?

The Malay girl rented a hotel room and stayed for two months.

He thought about his women, and none of the fighters wanted to get married. Leona didn't even consider him her boyfriend; she was just a friend he could sleep with. Mai Shiranui was slightly better; she could acknowledge him as her boyfriend. But women like Huang Yazi and the Malay girl would ask him about marriage.

Is this due to different upbringing or different social conditioning?

The Malay woman moved her head, rested it on his chest, and picked up a strand of hair to play with. She said, "So, if you were to get married, who would you marry? Or rather, who do you most want to marry?"

Chen Jialuo picked at his slightly itchy earlobe with his little finger and said, "If I were to get married, I would definitely marry them all."

These words startled the Malay woman, who sat up abruptly and stared at Chen Jialuo in astonishment. "Marry them all? Will the law allow that?"
