Underworld Chronicles: Qiao Si's Strategist, Xiao Ke, and Wang Weifan

Seeing so many people had arrived and the office was packed, Xiao Ke said, "Alright, let's not stand around here anymore, let's go have a drink."

So, Xiao Ke led everyone to a large restaurant nearby, where they got a large private room and more than ten people sat down.

Since Xiao Ke was hosting, everyone wanted him to sit in the center position. But could the energetic Xiao Ke really sit there? Without saying a word, he pushed Qiao Si to sit in the center position, because Qiao Si was the oldest and no one could say anything if he sat there.

After everyone was seated, Xiao Ke asked the waiter to bring the wine first, and to bring out the best dishes.

Xiao Ke poured himself a glass of wine and said, "Fourth Brother, Xiao Fei, this is your first time meeting. Let me introduce you. This is Qiao Si, Fourth Brother, he works in engineering. This is Chen Jianbin, we all call him Xiao Fei."

Fourth Brother, it's an honor to meet you. Let me, Xiao Fei, offer you a toast first. Xiao Fei picked up his glass, stood up, clinked glasses with Qiao Si who had also stood up, and drank.

Xiao Ke and the others also had a drink with him. Xiao Ke pointed to Li Zhengguang and continued to introduce him, saying, "This is Li Zhengguang. He's a college student. What's that saying again? A hooligan isn't scary, but a hooligan with culture is scary, hahaha."

After Xiao Ke introduced Li Zhengguang, everyone laughed. Out of politeness, Li Zhengguang was about to stand up and clink glasses with Xiao Fei.

To everyone's surprise, Xiao Fei didn't even stand up this time. He thought to himself, "You, Li Zhengguang, are just Qiao Si's subordinate. Although I'm younger, I'm still on equal footing with Qiao Si. Who do you think you are, Li Zhengguang?"

Xiao Fei disdainfully tapped his wine glass on the table as a greeting to Li Zhengguang. Li Zhengguang, who was about to stand up, saw Xiao Fei's arrogant attitude, put his butt back down, and his face immediately fell.

Li Zhengguang glared at Xiao Fei, thinking to himself, "Fuck your mother! If Qiao Si and Xiao Ke weren't there, I would have smashed a bottle over your head."

Despite his inner turmoil, Li Zhengguang, a college graduate and a man of good manners, still politely drank the glass of wine, even though he was seething with anger.

So, when you're out and about, it's best to be polite and careful with your words and actions. You never know, a glance or a gesture might offend someone and cause them to stab you in the back, because people's hearts are unpredictable.

No one else noticed Li Zhengguang and Xiao Fei's actions, because the main character today was Xiao Ke, and they had all come for him.

"Brother Ke, the battle at Hulan River has been talked about in all sorts of strange ways. Today, all our brothers are here, so why don't you tell us the details?" Hao the Cripple said first.

Yes, Xiao Ke, tell us about it, everyone wants to hear it. Qiao Si is quite interested too.

Damn, what's there to say? Don't listen to that nonsense from outside.

"Brother Ke, just tell us, let us see it too," Xiao Fei interjected.

Alright, since you all want to hear it, I'll tell you. Xiao Ke then recounted his trip to Hulan in a very casual manner.

Everyone listened intently. Although what Xiao Ke said wasn't as exaggerated as the rumors outside, no one was hurt, he took down the top dog in Hulan, and he also took down the hat guy and threw bombs. It was fucking exciting and thrilling to hear about.

"Come on, Brother Ke, I won't say anything more. You've made me proud, you're awesome." Hao the Cripple raised a bottle of baijiu and toasted Little Ke.

Qiao Si, Yang Mantou, and Xiao Fei each opened a bottle of baijiu and toasted Xiao Ke with one of their own.

"That's fucking awesome! We're all here today, and we're all from the underworld. How about we learn from the Oath of the Peach Garden and become sworn brothers?" Hao the Cripple suggested, having already downed a bottle of baijiu.

"Hey, I think it's a good idea. We're all just trying to make a living, and we can look out for each other in the future." Xiao Ke thought Hao the Cripple's suggestion was pretty good.

Qiao Si, Yang Mantou, and Xiao Fei all felt pretty good about it. These days, isn't it fashionable to stick together and help each other out? They're all influential figures in the underworld, so helping each other out is a good thing for everyone.

Since everyone agrees, let's learn from Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei today and swear an oath of brotherhood in the Peach Garden. I propose that Fourth Brother be our eldest brother, what do you think? Xiao Ke said.

"Agreed. Fourth Brother is the oldest, so of course he should be the eldest brother. Let Brother Ke be our second brother." Hao the Cripple agreed.

"Oh, how could I? You guys all started out before me. Let Xiao Ke be the big brother," Qiao Si declined.

That won't do, that won't do. Making me the second-in-command would be giving me too much credit.

"I think Cripple's suggestion is excellent. Fourth Brother can be the eldest brother, Brother Ke can be the second brother, and you, Cripple, can be the third brother," Yang Mantou continued.

"Then I'm the youngest, so Brother Yang, you'll be the fourth brother," Xiao Fei interjected.

"Alright, alright, it's settled then. Come on, let's have another bottle, the five of us brothers, and swear an oath by blood." Hao the Cripple opened another bottle of baijiu, picked up his crutch, and stood up.

Qiao Si, Xiao Ke, Yang Mantou, and Xiao Fei also stood up. "Come on, we don't ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we ask to die on the same day, month, and year. We'll share happiness and hardship together."

After the five older brothers finished speaking in unison, they all tilted their heads back and began to gulp down the drink.

Years later, what they said actually came true. They ate peanuts on the same day, month, and year and died together. It seems that sometimes vows are not to be made lightly; they might just come true.

After the sworn brotherhood was established, the room became lively. Everyone was from the underworld, and they all had to be good at fighting and drinking. Everyone started drinking freely.

The older brothers and the younger brothers put their arms around each other's shoulders and started toasting each other.

Apart from Li Zhengguang and Xiao Fei, who looked down on each other and didn't drink alone, everyone else drank in circles.

Some people's alcohol affects their stomach, causing their face to turn red immediately, but they don't urinate. Others' alcohol affects their kidneys, causing their face to remain unchanged even when drinking, but they urinate a lot.

Young Ma Long was the type who drank to the point of exhaustion. When he drank too much, he had to go to the toilet. There was no toilet in the private room, so he had to keep running out.

When Malone went to urinate for the second time, he saw a tall girl with a ponytail walking ahead of him.

The girl was wearing a white top and trendy flared pants, with a big, perky bottom that swayed as she walked.

This kind of swaying is definitely not like the girls in karaoke bars who deliberately wiggle their big butts when they walk, as if their butts could fly off at any moment, making them look slutty at first glance.

The girl that Ma Long saw possessed an absolute, natural, harmonious beauty. Her ponytail and two buttocks swayed with her walk, making Ma Long's mind wander and his heart flutter.

Everyone else had already gone into the women's restroom, but Ma Long, like a fool, almost followed them in. He quickly turned around and ran into the men's restroom.

When Malone finished urinating and came out, the girl he had just seen also came out of the women's restroom.

Ma Long was dumbfounded. "Holy crap, I was standing and she was squatting, and she peed just as fast as I did. That's amazing!"

What will happen to Malone after he sees the girl's true face? Stay tuned for the next episode.
