Chapter 386: Harsh Midnight



The night was as dark as ink, and the salty sea breeze blew across Repulse Bay, a wealthy area where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

Luxurious villas of different styles are nestled against the mountains and facing the sea, lying quietly in carefully manicured gardens. The warm lights shining through the window lattices symbolize the gathering of the top wealth and power in Hong Kong Island.

However, this exquisite tranquility was torn apart by a sudden and extremely harsh sound near midnight.

“Bang—bang—bang—bang—!!!”

The violent, continuous and unrestrained sound of car horns, like the roar of an enraged metal beast, suddenly pierced the night sky of Repulse Bay No. 3 and instantly resounded throughout the bay area.

The sound did not sound like that of an ordinary passing vehicle, but rather a deliberate provocation, with a fierce force that wanted to pierce through the villa door and the dignity of the owner inside.

The classic radiator grille of the Rolls-Royce Phantom glows coldly under the dim street lights.

Inside the car, Fok Chun-ting, the eldest son of the Fok family and the most famous second-generation rich man in Hong Kong Island, was sitting comfortably in the top-quality leather seat with his arms folded.

His eyes were as cold as a knife, staring at the tightly closed door of Villa No. 3 in Repulse Bay in front of him.

In the front driver's seat, Old Xu, the Huo family's trusted driver for many years, was grinning.

There was a smile on his face that was almost flattering, yet also a bit malicious.

"Young Master, just wait and see if that Japanese guy dares to play deaf and dumb again!"

Old Xu pressed the horn hard and said with his head tilted as if to take credit.

"Well, go on."

Huo Zhenting snorted from his nose, and the anxiety and desire to conquer in his eyes almost burned.

For Liu Rumeng, he must fight for this dignity!

How dare a mere upstart from Japan, Kobayashi Tenwang, put on airs in front of Peter Ho and try to steal his woman?

Let him know today that the fate of Hong Kong Island lies with the man named Huo!

For other residents of Repulse Bay, when the first horn sounded, the lights of several nearby villas lit up almost instantly.

Then, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, ripples spread rapidly.

Figures appeared one after another from the windows of villas, terraces and garden shadows in the distance and near.

The wealthy people were either wearing silk pajamas or just coats, with expressions of astonishment on their faces, which then turned into an indescribable excitement.

Late at night, someone dared to honk their horn so arrogantly in Repulse Bay. The situation was definitely not simple.

Moreover, it seems that the target is directly aimed at Repulse Bay No. 3, which immediately reminds people of the scandal reports between Kobayashi Tenwang and Liu Rumeng during the day.

"...Hiss, what a noise! The Huo family's car? Parked... in front of Xiaolin Tianwang's house?!"

"Yes! It's the Huo family's 'Tiger'! The license plate number can't be wrong!"

"Oh my god, it's right! What did today's Sing Tao Daily say? 'Young Master Huo risks his life for his beloved, while a wealthy Japanese tycoon steals her away!'"

"Needless to say! They must be targeting Liu Rumeng! They're jealous and are hitting me right in the face. Young Master Huo must be really pissed off!"

"So brave! So bold! Young Master Huo is indeed a role model for us young people in Hong Kong Island. Let's see if this Japanese guy dares to be so arrogant in our territory!"

The subdued but excited discussions quickly spread to the terraces and windows of each house.

For these wealthy people whose daily lives are refined but inevitably filled with hypocrisy and calculation.

Being able to witness with your own eyes the eldest son of Hong Kong's top wealthy family, Fok Chun-ting, personally taking action and openly challenging another wealthy man with an equally deep and mysterious background in front of his door is a hundred times more exciting than watching the hottest midnight movie!

Moreover, public opinion was almost overwhelmingly on Ho Chun-ting's side.

"Did you see that? That Japanese guy named Kobayashi didn't even dare to open the door! Not a single security guard showed up!"

"Oh, what a tycoon from Japan, I think he's nothing but a paper tiger! He immediately lost his footing in front of Young Master Huo!"

"That's right! A powerful dragon can't overpower a local snake! Hong Kong Island is a land of deep waters! Kobayashi Tenwang may be calling the shots in Japan, but when he comes here, even a dragon has to coil and a tiger has to lie down! Young Master Huo can just stretch out his hand and he'll become a tortoise!"

"Well, that's not the case... Kobayashi Tenwang is said to have a very powerful background..." someone whispered.

"Deep? Deeper than the Huo family's decades-long foundation? Deeper than the Huo family's connections in all aspects of Hong Kong Island? You're kidding!"

Someone immediately sneered and refuted.

The door of Villa No. 3, which remained motionless and seemed to be dead silent, became the perfect evidence for everyone to support Peter Ho and mock Kobayashi Tenwang.

That tightly closed door was undoubtedly a synonym for "cowardly" in the eyes of everyone.

The Guo family villa was brightly lit.

This place is about a few hundred meters away from Repulse Bay No. 3. The atmosphere is completely different from the "watching the show" state of the entire bay area. It is more like a festive and tense party scene.

The Guo family members who were also attracted to the balcony and windows by the shocking sound of the horn were briefly surprised, but then they were replaced by huge ecstasy!

"It's Mr. Huo's car! It's really Mr. Huo's car that's parked in front of Xiaolin Tianwang's door and honked!"

Guo Zhiqiang's wife, Yan Meijuan, clutched the gold bracelet on her wrist tightly, an unconcealable smile on her face. "He's...he's going straight to Xiaolin Tianwang to cause trouble! He's doing this for Mengmeng!"

"Good! Very good!"

Guo Letian, the old man of the Guo family, an old Shanghai businessman who has experienced the ups and downs of the business world for a long time, has a gleam in his eyes at this moment.

His wrinkled face flushed with excitement. He leaned on his golden nanmu cane and slammed it twice on the floor. "Zhen Ting, this kid is really brave! For Meng Meng, he dared to block Xiao Lin Tian Wang's door!
