Shen Dong said, "No need, you can go back. I'm really looking forward to the next singer."
Shen Xue said, "Okay, sorry to bother you."
Wang Hai, standing next to him, curled his lip and said, "Bro, are you trying to attract girls' attention this way? Isn't that so outdated?"
Shen Dong grew impatient and said, "Yes, I'm just a rich bumpkin. Are you happy now? Pshaw, you like a girl but can't even afford to give her a gold card. And you have the nerve to go and cause trouble for her. You're really quite fashionable."
"Pfft"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Wang Hai lost face and flew into a rage, pointing at Shen Dong and saying, "Judging from your accent, you must be from Hong Kong, right? You'd better understand that this is Yandu, my territory."
Shen Dong crossed his legs and looked at Wang Hai with a strange expression, saying, "I remember Yandu is the territory of the Xia Kingdom's government and people. Who do you think you are there?"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Everyone burst into laughter again.
Wang Hai nodded and said, "Alright. Kid, I'll remember you. We'll see."
Shen Dong hummed in agreement and said, "I hope your memory will improve."
Wang Hai stormed back to his seat, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed a few numbers.
"Old Cat, bring your brothers downstairs at Soul Bar and help me deal with someone."
"No problem, I'll be there in twenty minutes."
Putting down his cell phone, Wang Hai gave Shen Dong a cold look and muttered, "I'm going to teach you how to be a decent human being."
Shen Dong didn't take Wang Hai's threat to heart at all.
Xue Shan, however, was somewhat worried and said, "Mr. Shen, a wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. Wang Hai has connections in the underworld. I saw him make a phone call just now. Why don't we go back first?"
Shen Dong asked with great interest, "What kind of person is this Wang Hai? He seems pretty arrogant."
Xue Shan said, "Wang Hai's parents died early, and he grew up in the Su family. He and Su Junxia, the eldest son of the Su family, are like brothers. A few years ago, Wang Hai established a foreign trade company called Hanhai, which has been doing business with the northern part of the Su family. I heard that it is doing very well. With money, this guy has become a bit arrogant. He is very arrogant and bossy all day long."
Shen Dong said dismissively, "Foolish."
Xue Shan nodded and said, "Many people from other families make their fortunes quietly, and only a few are so ostentatious. Compared to them, this guy is indeed very foolish."
Shen Dong said, "Don't worry about him. Let's continue listening to the music."
The second singer was a male singer whose singing skills were much rougher than Shen Xue's, making Shen Dong frown.
The others seemed to find it hard to listen to, and after he sang only one song, they booed him off the stage.
The third was Liu Huan, a well-established singer, whose song "Hero" got everyone's blood pumping.
Shen Dong immediately presented Liu Huan with a gold card and said, "Teacher Liu, I really like your song 'Youthful Ambition.' I wonder if I will have the honor of hearing you sing it live today."
Liu Huan smiled and said, "No problem."
As the music began, Liu Huan's uniquely high-pitched and resonant voice seemed to transport Shen Dong back to his past life as a criminal police officer.
After the performance, Shen Dong gave Liu Huan another gold card, making Liu Huan feel a little embarrassed.
In this day and age, 200,000 yuan could make him sing all night.
Seeing that Shen Dong had spent 300,000 yuan at once, the other singers who came to visit all went on stage to perform, hoping to get Shen Dong's gold card.
Unfortunately, an hour passed and Shen Dong only gave out one gold card, while most of the others received red cards.
Even so, Shen Dong still threw out 600,000.
Tang Qiang from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" production team gasped and said, "They're really rich."
Chen Tianhong looked at Shen Dong, who was sitting there calmly and without expression, and thought to himself, "This is a real man."
Half an hour later, Shen Dong checked the time and said, "It's getting late, let's go."
No one objected, and they followed Shen Dong outside.
Zang Haiqiao hurriedly came out to see them off.
Just as they left the bar, the doors of two vans opened, and a group of thugs carrying baseball bats stepped out.
They all had dyed hair, looking a bit like gangsters from Hong Kong.
"You're Shen Dong?"
The man in the lead was about thirty years old and had a strong build. He pointed a baseball bat at Chen Dong and said sternly.
Shen Dong smiled and asked, "What is your surname?"
The man said, "Thank you all for your kindness in calling me Brother Cat."
Shen Dong asked, "Wasn't it Wang Hai who sent you?"
Cat Brother scratched his ear and said, "What Wang Hai or Zhang Hai? I don't know them at all."
Shen Dong sighed and said, "You guys are pathetic for daring to do it but not admitting it. Tell me, how are you going to deal with me?"
Cat Brother said coldly, "I originally just wanted to break one of your legs, but now I find your words a bit too unpleasant, so I'll add your tongue as well."
Shen Dong laughed heartily and said, "There are about 520,000 gangsters in Hong Kong. Whether they are triad bosses or low-level thugs, no one dares to threaten me like this. I didn't expect you to show up today. Hehe, not bad, you're not very smart, but you've got guts. You're quite interesting."
Seeing Shen Dong facing more than twenty armed thugs, still with his hands in his pockets and showing no fear, everyone secretly admired him.
Zang Haiqiao stepped forward and said, "Brother Cat, this Mr. Shen is a Hong Kong tycoon invited by the government to invest. He's not someone you can afford to offend. Considering we've known each other, I can plead with Mr. Shen to let you off the hook."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Cat Brother laughed loudly, "Qiaozi, do you know why you can't make it big? It's because you're too cowardly. Today, I'm going to take this guy surnamed Chen's left leg and tongue. Brothers, give him a beating!"
A group of thugs, brandishing baseball bats, charged toward Chen Dong, shouting as they approached.
Shen Dong shook his head and said softly, "What a bunch of reckless fools."
No sooner had he finished speaking than three gunshots rang out in everyone's ears.
Six men in plainclothes, armed with pistols, charged forward like cheetahs.
"We are security personnel from the State Security Department. We now order you to immediately put down your weapons and all squat on the ground."
"Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without exception."
Faced with six pistols, the twenty-odd thugs looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.
"What National Security Department? I'm not easily intimidated, give them a good beating."
Cat Brother cursed and swore, then grabbed a stick and struck the hand of a man in plain clothes.
"Bang"
Without the slightest hesitation, the man opposite fired a shot directly at Cat Brother.
"Damn, you guys are serious."
Cat looked down at his chest, then collapsed to the ground with a thud, dead.
