As soon as Chen Yun entered the restaurant, a burly middle-aged man, accompanied by Huang Yaolong and a group of plainclothes subordinates, strode up to greet him.
"Haha, Brother Chen, you've finally arrived! We've been waiting for you for ages!"
This man was the commander of the Western Frontier Army, surnamed Xiao, named Tian Ce, courtesy name Qi Yang.
Chen Yun smiled and said, "I'm sorry, there was a bit of traffic on the way here. I've kept Commander Xiao and the others waiting."
The burly middle-aged man said, "Brother Chen, your way of addressing me is too formal. You can call me Lao Xiao, or you can call me by my courtesy name Qiyang. Today we're catching up as brothers, having a meal and drinks, so let's not address each other by our official titles."
Chen Yunxiao said, "Okay, then I'll call you Lao Xiao!"
After saying that, he looked at Huang Yaolong and the others behind Lao Xiao, who were all dressed in civilian clothes, and laughed, "Look at you all dressed in civilian clothes, are you going to drink without any restraint and get me drunk?"
Old Xiao laughed and said, "Not at all, Brother Chen, your enormous capacity for food is well-known in the army. We brothers from the Western Frontier may not be a match for you!"
"Come on, I've already asked the restaurant owner to prepare some simple food and drinks in a private room on the second floor. Let's go up and have a couple of drinks."
Chen Yun said, "Thank you for leading the way!"
Old Xiao and the others, like stars surrounding the moon, escorted Chen Yun up to the second floor of the restaurant.
Although Chen Yun has been retired for many years.
But Lao Xiao recently heard that Qin Lao, Zhang Lao, and other elders unanimously recommended Chen Yun for the long-vacant position of Grand Commander.
If Chen Yun were to truly become the Grand Commander, he would be in command of the entire army.
From now on, all armies in the Northern Border, Jiangnan, East China Sea, and Western Frontier will be under the command of Commander-in-Chief Chen Yun.
At that time, Lao Xiao, Huo Guanying, Cao Yelong, and others were all going to become Chen Yun's subordinates.
Therefore, Lao Xiao was very polite to Chen Yun at this moment, and was also trying to build a good relationship with Chen Yun in advance.
After Chen Yun and Lao Xiao's group went up to the second floor...
Not long after.
A gaunt old man dressed in black cloth, with a sinister look in his eyes, entered from outside, accompanied by several men in suits and sunglasses.
This old man in black cloth is Yang Jincheng, the steward of the Yang family in the capital.
The men in sunglasses following him were all elite henchmen of the Yang family.
They were ordered to avenge Yang Hongwei and settle scores with Chen Yun!
now.
Yang Jincheng, accompanied by several men wearing sunglasses, entered the restaurant. His eagle eyes scanned the entire place, searching for Chen Yun.
In the hotel lobby.
Several waiters were peeling garlic and preparing vegetables.
The restaurant owner was feeding his three-year-old son.
Upon seeing Yang Jincheng and his group, the restaurant owner quickly put down his son, stood up, and asked, "Hello everyone, are you here for a meal?"
Before the restaurant owner could finish speaking, Yang Jincheng shook his head and said in a somber voice, "Chen Yun, who just came in..."
Upon hearing this, the boss immediately said, "Oh, you're with Mr. Chen, right?"
Yang Jincheng remained calm and nodded slightly: "Yes, where is Chen Yun?"
The boss hurriedly said, "Mr. Chen and his family are in room number 5 upstairs. I'll take you up..."
Yang Jincheng said indifferently, "No need, we'll go find him ourselves."
That's all!
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking arrogant and cocky, and led a few of his men in suits toward the stairs.
The restaurant owner felt that Yang Jincheng's attitude was somewhat arrogant and haughty.
But I didn't take it seriously!
After all, he knew that the people dining in the private room upstairs today were all people of considerable status.
He sat down and continued feeding his son, coaxing him, "Little Tiger, eat some more. You need to eat well to grow tall..."
His three-year-old son, Xiaohu, tilted his chubby little head and glanced at Yang Jincheng and his group who were coming up the stairs.
The child thought these men in suits and sunglasses looked particularly impressive, so he said, "Dad, when I grow up I want to be as impressive as these men! Dad, what do these men do?"
The restaurant owner couldn't answer.
Yang Jincheng and his group, who were climbing the stairs, all showed pride upon hearing the child's words.
Yang Jincheng is the head steward of the Yang family.
The several men in suits were all bodyguards for the Yang family.
Even in the capital, when they invoked the Yang family's name, others would give them some respect.
Therefore, Yang Jincheng and others are proud to be members of the Yang family!
At this moment, Yang Jincheng stopped and stood on the stairs, looking down at Xiao Hu with a hint of arrogance, and said, "Little kid, these imposing uncles are all bodyguards of the Yang family in Beijing!"
bodyguard?
Little Tiger blinked his bright eyes and said innocently, "I want to eat more, I want to grow tall, and when I grow up, I want to be a bodyguard for the Yang family, just as impressive as my uncles."
Upon hearing this, a smug smile appeared on Yang Jincheng's gloomy, lifeless face, and he nodded slightly: "Good, good, good, that's ambitious!"
That's all!
He then took several well-trained bodyguards upstairs to confront Chen Yun.
The restaurant owner continued feeding his son.
But a moment later, angry shouts came from upstairs: "Where did this bunch of bastards come from, daring to cause trouble for Mr. Chen and disturb our drinking? Give them a few slaps to sober them up, then throw them all downstairs!"
The restaurant owner and the waiters in the lobby were stunned when they heard the angry shouts coming from upstairs.
One by one, they subconsciously looked up at the second floor.
All that could be heard from above were angry shouts, sounds of fighting, and screams.
Immediately afterwards.
Then I saw a figure being kicked down from the second floor.
Boom!
The figure fell from the second floor, landing heavily in front of the restaurant owner and others.
Everyone was stunned.
The guy who was kicked away and fell flat on his back with his face covered in blood was none other than the arrogant old man from before, Yang Jincheng!
The restaurant owner was stunned.
His son, Xiaohu, was also stunned.
The group of waiters at the scene were also stunned.
Everyone was still in shock.
Immediately, several more people screamed and tumbled down the stairs.
It was Yang Jincheng's bodyguards.
These bodyguards had lost their earlier imposing manner; some had broken arms or legs, some had bruises around their eyes, some had broken noses, and some had blood trickling from their mouths.
After tumbling down the stairs, they lay on the ground, groaning and moaning in pain.
Each one is more tragic than the last!
Little Tiger stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his small face filled with shock, his round eyes brimming with terror.
He repeatedly said to the restaurant owner, "Dad, these uncles were beaten up so badly! I don't want to be the Yang family's bodyguard anymore, I don't want to be the Yang family's bodyguard anymore..."
Yang Jincheng and his bodyguards were already in a terrible state, with broken arms and legs, bruised and swollen faces.
Then I heard the little boy say those words again.
They were all so ashamed and indignant that they almost vomited blood!
At this time.
Chen Yun, along with Lao Xiao, Huang Yaolong, and others, appeared at the top of the stairs on the second floor.
Chen Yun looked down at Yang Jincheng and the others and said coldly, "I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare your lives. Go back and tell the Yang family not to bother me again, or I'll raze them to the ground when I return to the capital!"
Yang Jincheng and the others, enduring the pain from their wounds, looked up at Chen Yun in horror.
Chen Yun said indifferently, "Get lost!"
Yang Jincheng, along with several wounded men, scrambled out of the restaurant and fled.
Little Tiger looked up at Chen Yun, who was surrounded by a crowd of people and looked like a king ruling the world. His little face was full of admiration, and he said with burning eyes, "This uncle is so handsome and majestic!"
