My Dongguan Love Story
Chapter 63: Surrounded
After I finished showering, I stayed inside the bathroom and didn't go out. After a while, I heard the cruise ship's horn, so I opened the bathroom door, peeked out, and only came out when I saw that no one was around.
I walked towards the deck and watched the cruise ship gradually dock at the shore, knowing that we must have arrived at Hong Kong Island.
Now that we're almost at Hong Kong Island, Song Qian shouldn't bother me anymore, right? With that thought, I felt relieved and headed towards the restaurant.
Inside the restaurant, Victoria Song had changed her clothes and was wearing a purple dress. There were still some water droplets on her fair collarbone.
When she saw me come in, she looked at me with a complicated expression, a mixture of surprise, approval, and resentment.
Now that we've arrived at Hong Kong Island, Zhang Xiaoqian's task for her has failed, but she doesn't intend to bother me any further. So she changed into a bikini and put on a loose-fitting dress, ready to head to Hong Kong Island later.
Zhang Xiaoqian and Zhang Peng looked at me with complicated expressions; they hadn't expected that I could actually reject Song Qian, such a beauty.
Zhang Xiaoqian was now considering giving up on her plans.
For a moment, everyone on the ship was lost in their own thoughts, and no one spoke; the atmosphere was quiet for a while. After a while, a crew member came up from the lower deck and said to us:
"We're almost at shore, everyone get ready."
After the ship docked, the crew member told us, "We will come back here in four days. We will only stay until noon. We will not wait for you after that."
"Mm." Zhang Xiaoqian had sat there before and knew the rules.
Zhang Peng led her towards the shore.
Victoria Song followed closely behind them, while I walked at the very back.
As I watched Victoria Song's retreating figure, I wondered if she was angry with me. After all, it must be very upsetting for a woman to go through all that and still be rejected.
But I can't worry about that much, after all, we're just strangers who met by chance.
I initially thought Victoria Song was coming with us, but when we got ashore I realized she had her own destination. So the three of us got into a black car and left the dock.
After getting on the vehicle, I realized that the driver's cab was actually on the right side, which immediately struck me as quite novel.
Zhang Peng sat in the back seat, holding a purple Motorola phone, and was typing a text message: "We've arrived at Hong Kong Island."
After a while, he received a reply: "Okay, proceeding as planned."
When Zhang Peng saw the text message, a smile appeared on his face. He turned to look at Zhang Xiaoqian and blinked.
Zhang Xiaoqian immediately understood, but suddenly felt uneasy.
This time, they brought Da Zhuang along to Hong Kong Island, making two preparations. The first was to have Song Qian seduce Da Zhuang and take photos as evidence of his infidelity, so that their mother could break up with Da Zhuang.
Now that Dazhuang hasn't fallen for the trick, the only option left is to activate the second plan: go to the casino later, where the Hunan gang will teach Dazhuang a lesson and detain him on Hong Kong Island. If necessary, they can hand Dazhuang over to the police, claiming he was smuggled in, and then imprison him.
In short, they don't want Dazhuang to return to the mainland.
This physically separates him from his mother. After three to five months, once the initial excitement wears off, his mother's feelings for Dazhuang will gradually fade.
This isn't ideal for Da Zhuang. But there's nothing we can do since Da Zhuang didn't fail with Song Qian, so we have to keep him in Hong Kong.
Although Zhang Xiaoqian didn't like Dazhuang, it was only because she disliked him being with her mother. She didn't want to be so ruthless as to lock Dazhuang up on Hong Kong Island.
So when Zhang Peng first suggested this idea, she didn't agree. It wasn't until Zhang Peng reasoned with her and appealed to her emotions, and offered the idea of using Song Qian to seduce her, that Zhang Xiaoqian finally agreed.
Seeing the hesitation in Zhang Xiaoqian's eyes, Zhang Peng gripped her hand tightly and looked at her, his eyes urging her not to back down at the last minute.
However, what neither of them expected was that, like the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind, Brother Nan did indeed want to arrest Da Zhuang, but at the same time, he also wanted to arrest Zhang Xiaoqian.
Dingsheng is a large enterprise in Dongguan, with assets of around 100 million. If you could get hold of the boss's daughter, you could probably squeeze at least 10 million out of her.
Having failed to achieve their goal with General Manager Li, they naturally needed to find a new way to make amends. Clearly, this was the perfect opportunity.
Nan Ge looked at Zhang Peng's phone, chuckled wickedly, put a cigarette in his mouth, opened a contact named "Shanji" in his contacts, and sent him a text message:
"They've already arrived on Hong Kong Island, and will be at Macau soon."
A short while later, a text message reply came: "ok!"
Nan Ge looked at the text message and smiled, revealing his yellow front teeth.
Our group got into the car and drove towards Kowloon City.
I looked up and saw that the road ahead was similar to that in Dongguan, not particularly bustling.
Not long after, we stopped in front of a three-story building.
Zhang Peng looked up at the sign above the shop entrance: "Haojiang". He then smiled and patted Zhang Xiaoqian's thigh: "Xiaoqian, we've arrived, let's get off."
"Mmm." Zhang Xiaoqian took his hand and got out of the car. I followed behind them, looking around with some confusion.
I saw two young thugs with dyed yellow hair standing at the entrance of Haojiang, smoking cigarettes and watching me. There were also a few other people standing scattered not far away, looking like they were keeping watch.
I became very wary; this place didn't look like a legitimate shop.
As soon as I lifted the curtain and stepped inside, a pungent, foul odor, carried by the heat, enveloped me. The stifling stench made my chest tighten.
I looked around and found that this was actually an underground casino, with many people sitting around different tables, shouting and betting wildly.
Zhang Xiaoqian was clearly startled by the scene before her; she had never been to such a chaotic place before. She looked helplessly at Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng looked around for someone to meet. He saw a man with a buzz cut walking towards him, and as the man drew closer, he recognized him and called out, "Brother Chicken."
During his years working for the Hunan gang, he once had the chance to meet Brother Chicken by chance.
Chicken is a member of the Lien Ying Society, which is considered a relatively powerful triad in Hong Kong.
This casino in Macau is a casino under the control of the United British Society, and it's also Chicken's territory.
Zhang Peng brought Dazhuang here so that the Mighty Dragon would fall into the territory of the local bully.
Brother Chicken had a tough-looking appearance; he wasn't tall, but his frame looked very solid, and he exuded a ruthless and thuggish air that came with being a gangster. His smile was both sly and wicked. He glanced at me, then at Zhang Xiaoqian and Zhang Peng, and finally asked Zhang Peng:
"Are you Zhang Peng?"
Zhang Peng looked at Brother Chicken with a fawning smile and said, "It's me, Brother Chicken. This is Chen Dazhuang."
As he spoke, he pointed at me, and I immediately had a bad feeling when he pointed at me.
"Oh?" Brother Chicken smiled and spat out his chewing gum on the ground, then waved his hand. Immediately, several of his underlings surrounded us.
I was just starting to panic when I saw these thugs surrounding me. Then I saw Zhang Peng, holding Zhang Xiaoqian's hand, walking away smugly, glancing back at me with a mocking look as they went.
"Dazhuang, enjoy Brother Shanji's 'hospitality'! Hehe."
Zhang Xiaoqian glanced back at me, her gaze somewhat complicated and conflicted, but then she turned back.
Seeing this, even someone as dense as me would know that Zhang Xiaoqian and her group had summoned me to Hong Kong Island to deal with me.
My face turned ashen instantly. I was about to yell at them when I saw them about to step out of the encirclement when a bald guy shoved them hard, causing them to stumble back two steps and almost fall to the ground.
Zhang Peng glared angrily at the bald guy, then looked at Chicken with a big smile: "Brother Chicken?"
Brother Chicken smiled, licked his lips, and looked at Zhang Peng, saying:
"Pengzai, don't rush off. How much money do you have? Take it out and share it with the brothers. They've worked for you, they can't work for free, can they?"
When Zhang Peng heard that Shanji was going to rob him, his heart sank.
What does this mean? I clearly agreed with Brother Nan that you guys would deal with Da Zhuang, so why am I being dealt with as well?
Zhang Peng wanted to resist, but looking at so many underlings, he knew it was useless. Not only would he lose his money, but he would also be implicated and might even get beaten up for nothing.
Thinking that Zhang Xiaoqian's family had a lot of money, he figured he might as well consider this small amount as a precaution. So he turned to Zhang Xiaoqian and said, "Xiaoqian, give them the bag."
Upon hearing that they were trying to take her money, Zhang Xiaoqian put her hands on her hips and angrily shouted at Zhang Peng, "Why should I? I won't give it to you!"
Hearing this, Zhang Peng looked troubled. Normally, he wouldn't dare disobey this spoiled and willful little princess, because she was his lifeline; if she got angry, he was finished. But this was a dangerous moment. If he dared to disobey Brother Jishan, it could cost him his life. How could he dare to provoke her?
He could only cling to Zhang Xiaoqian and plead:
"Xiaoqian, your mother still has a lot of money. We can have as much as you want when we get back. But if we don't give it to them now, we probably won't make it out of here alive today."
Seeing his cowardly behavior, Xiaoqian was furious. She slapped him hard and yelled, "You coward! What kind of mess have you made?!"
Seeing that the two were still flirting, Chicken gestured to Baldy to take the bag that Zhang Xiaoqian was carrying.
Having received instructions from Brother Chicken, Baldy walked towards Zhang Xiaoqian with a wicked grin on his face.
He raised his eyebrows and, with a cold expression, reached for Zhang Xiaoqian's handbag. Because Zhang Xiaoqian was holding on tightly, when he pulled hard, he actually dragged Zhang Xiaoqian forward and threw her straight into his arms.
Baldy felt something soft in his arms, and his right hand reached for Zhang Xiaoqian's waist. It was smooth and slippery, and his blood immediately surged.
He couldn't resist lowering his head and bringing his nose close to Zhang Xiaoqian's hair, inhaling the fragrance of her hair and smiling contentedly. After sniffing, he stuck out his thick tongue and licked Zhang Xiaoqian's cheek, leaving a trail of foamy saliva.
All of this happened so suddenly. Zhang Xiaoqian first smelled the stench coming from the bald guy's mouth, and then felt a sticky liquid on her face. She immediately felt nauseous and gagged, almost vomiting.
At this point, she realized what was happening and was so frightened that she tried to struggle and escape, but the bald guy grabbed her waist tightly with his hand.
Moreover, he looked at her with a frivolous and teasing gaze, like a cold, damp snake sliding down her neck. The air was thick with the stench of his breath and a suffocating sense of oppression, making her tense up every second and wanting to escape immediately.
Zhang Xiaoqian's face turned deathly pale, and she said in a panic, "Let me go, and I'll take care of you."
As he spoke, he raised the bag and smashed it down on the bald man's head.
Seeing the dark shadow flash before his eyes, Baldy quickly let go to catch it. Zhang Xiaoqian was thus freed from her restraints and quickly took a few steps back, jumping out of Baldy's body.
Seeing this, Zhang Peng quickly stepped forward to help Zhang Xiaoqian, his eyes full of concern: "Xiaoqian, are you alright?"
Zhang Xiaoqian, still shaken, saw that the person who came was Zhang Peng and, in a fit of anger, slapped him across the face.
"Damn it, Zhang Peng, are you even a man? He took advantage of me, and you didn't even react!"
Zhang Peng had a faint red mark on his face, and he looked extremely aggrieved. Did he think he could handle the people from the Lianying Society?
He had just seen Xiaoqian being groped on the waist by the bald guy, who took advantage of her. He was furious, but despite his anger, he didn't dare to confront him.
Faced with Zhang Xiaoqian's anger, he could only apologize and coax her, whispering in her ear:
"We're on someone else's turf, we can't just stand by and do nothing! When we get back, I'll definitely get someone to teach them a lesson."
Zhang Xiaoqian realized that Zhang Peng was just a useless lackey who would never avenge her. She was determined to kick him when she got back safely.
Seeing that Xiaoqian had stopped throwing a tantrum, Zhang Peng immediately turned to look at Brother Chicken. Although his eyes showed great displeasure and anger, his tone remained as ingratiating as ever:
"Brother Chicken, all the money's in my bag. Shall we head back now?"
Brother Nan told him to bring Da Zhuang to Hong Kong Island so that the people from the Lianying Society would come out and deal with Da Zhuang. Before, he thought it was a great idea. But after just getting in touch with the Lianying Society, he's now genuinely scared and just wants to leave as soon as possible.
Chicken didn't answer him immediately. Instead, he glanced at Baldy. Baldy saw Chicken's expression, nodded, opened his bag, and took out a stack of red bills.
His eyes lit up when he saw the thickness of the red bills.
Brother Chicken was quite satisfied with the stack of red bills and looked at Zhang Peng, saying, "You can go now."
Hearing his words, Zhang Peng breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Brother Chicken, thank you, Brother Chicken."
After saying that, he took Zhang Xiaoqian's hand and was about to leave. Although Zhang Xiaoqian was filled with anger, she didn't dare to vent it here. Suppressing her anger, she turned around and prepared to leave with Zhang Peng.
However, the gangsters surrounding them did not make way.
Zhang Peng turned to look at Shanji in confusion: "Brother Shanji?"
Chicken laughed and pulled up a chair from the side, sat down, crossed his legs, and looked at him: "Leave Zhang Xiaoqian here, and you can get lost."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoqian turned pale with fright, looked down at Zhang Peng, and shook her head repeatedly.
Zhang Peng smiled wryly to himself, then looked at Shanji with a troubled expression: "Brother Shanji, she's my girlfriend. I want to take her with me. Please do me the favor."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the bald guy slapped him hard across the right cheek. The force of the blow swelled his right cheek, and the impact sent him spinning halfway around before he fell to the ground.
Zhang Peng was stunned when he was slapped, and it took him a while to come to his senses.
The bald guy pointed at him menacingly: "Give you face? You're nothing!"
"Get out of here right now, or we'll arrest you too."
Zhang Peng was in pain and scared. He looked at Brother Chicken and pleaded, "Brother Chicken, Brother Nan only allowed Da Zhuang to stay. Please let me take Xiao Qian with me."
He feared the United British Society, but he also didn't want to leave Zhang Xiaoqian there. It wasn't that he cared about her, but rather about her wallet. If he couldn't protect Xiaoqian, where would he get the money?
Brother Chicken chuckled and glanced at him, then looked at Zhang Xiaoqian: "The only daughter of the Dingsheng boss, such a valuable hostage. Hahaha, how could I let her go?"
Seeing that his boss was in a good mood, Baldy couldn't help but say, "Brother Chicken, this woman's skin is so smooth. Can I play with her for a while? I promise I won't break her."
"Okay." Brother Chicken nodded and waved to Zhang Peng: "Get lost, or we'll arrest you too."
Zhang Peng gritted his teeth, looked at the pheasant, then looked at Zhang Xiaoqian with reluctance. Seeing Zhang Xiaoqian looking at him for help, he panicked. He wanted to take Zhang Xiaoqian with him, but he was powerless to do so.
Seeing Zhang Peng dawdling, the bald guy stepped forward and kicked him, sending Zhang Peng flying three meters before he crashed heavily to the ground.
Zhang Peng coughed up blood, his heart filled with fear. He dared not linger any longer, gritted his teeth, and ran towards the door, giving Zhang Xiaoqian one last, reluctant look before running out.
Seeing that Zhang Peng had really abandoned her and run away, Zhang Xiaoqian was filled with despair! She was definitely going to be...
When Shanji saw that Zhang Xiaoqian's face was covered in tears, and then looked at me with a calm and serious expression, he smiled and waved his hand. The henchmen surrounding us all drew their machetes.
