Inside the villa on Victoria Peak.
He Wenchang cautiously entered the villa under Fang Jie's guidance and stood awkwardly in front of Wu Tianhao.
"What brings you here, Mr. Wu?"
In terms of seniority, He Wenchang is actually older than Wu Tianhao.
In terms of lineage, Hung Shing Lian is the direct descendant of the Hung Society, while Chao Yi Yong was originally just a low-level gang with a history of less than thirty years.
However, the two sides were worlds apart in strength, and He Wenchang was timid and cowardly, and was very humble in front of Wu Tianhao.
Wu Tianhao glanced at He Wenchang with disdain and didn't even offer him a seat.
“Your Hong Sheng Lian is really doing well lately.”
He Wenchang quickly smiled apologetically, "No, no, it's just that some ignorant brat managed to get a decent ranking on the stage. How could I dare to talk about prestige in front of you, Mr. Wu?"
Wu Tianhao snorted coldly: "Since you don't dare, then you should stop."
"I'll make sure that kid Hong Shenglian forfeits the next match. Anyway, he's not the only boxer to forfeit in the Dragon City Championship."
He Wenchang was taken aback upon hearing this.
At first, He Wenchang really didn't want Yang Sheng to continue fighting in the ring.
Who could stand it if someone took down a top-ranking member of a major triad?
However, in the last two matches, Yang Sheng seems to have finally listened and knows when to stop, which makes He Wenchang very satisfied.
After all, as long as they don't offend anyone, the further Hong Shenglian goes in the Dragon City Championship, the greater their fame will naturally become.
Recently, there has even been an increase in newcomers joining Hong Shenglian, all drawn by Yang Sheng's reputation.
But at this point, Wu Tianhao's decision to have Yang Sheng forfeit the competition left He Wenchang genuinely puzzled.
Yang Sheng has never fought against Chao Yiyong's people, so why did Wu Tianhao make him forfeit?
Moreover, although many players withdrew from the Dragon City Championship, it was because they were injured in the previous match and knew there was no point in continuing, so they withdrew to save their ranking.
Yang Sheng has maintained his peak performance until now, so it's not surprising that he suddenly withdrew.
He Wenchang wanted to voice these doubts, but seeing Wu Tianhao's cold gaze, he immediately withdrew his words.
"Mr. Wu, please rest assured that Yang Sheng will definitely not appear on the stage in the next match."
Wu Tianhao glared at He Wenchang with an unfriendly expression: "If you know, then get to work. What are you still standing here for? Waiting for me to treat you to dinner? You idiot!"
Despite being a powerful gang leader, He Wenchang was scolded by Wu Tianhao like a primary school student, but he dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction and quickly took his leave.
He didn't dare to scold Wu Tianhao, but he resented Yang Sheng in his heart, wondering where he had offended Mr. Wu and caused him to be taught a lesson.
Seeing this, Fang Jie couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.
If it weren't for that stubborn, arrogant man insisting on taking on this matter back then, none of this trouble would have happened now.
Hao is good in every way, except that he is too sentimental and even somewhat disregards the bigger picture.
…………
Among all the gangsters in Hong Kong, Ho Man-cheung is considered a veteran.
Although the older one gets in the martial arts world, the more timid one becomes, he has still seen a lot and is quite knowledgeable.
At least he witnessed the entire process of Wu Tianhao leading the rise of Chao Yiyong, and knew just how ruthless, arrogant, and lawless Wu Tianhao was.
Therefore, he dared not ignore Wu Tianhao's words. After returning to the main hall, He Wenchang immediately had someone summon Yang Sheng.
"Old Ding, what did you call me here for?"
Yang Sheng casually sat down to the left of He Wenchang, crossed his legs, picked up his teacup, and drank it all in one gulp, looking relaxed.
After planting flags and forming alliances, Yang Sheng became a powerful figure in Hong Sheng Lian, no longer needing to pretend to be cautious and timid.
Unlike his submissive demeanor in front of Wu Tianhao, He Wenchang was quite imposing in front of Yang Sheng.
"Ah Sheng, news has come from the Dragon City Championship that although He Anfeng's Red Stick won the match, he broke several bones, so he has forfeited the next match."
So the result isn't 22 to 11, you've already made it into the top ten of the Dragon City Championship.
This ranking is enough for Hong Sheng Lian. You can forfeit the next match.
Yang Sheng frowned slightly, slowly put down his teacup, and said in a deep voice, "Old Ding, what exactly happened?"
He Wenchang isn't an idiot.
The further they go in the Dragon City Championship, the more advantageous it will be for Hong Sheng Lian.
Why should I abstain for no reason?
Either something unexpected happened, or He Wenchang has Alzheimer's disease.
He Wenchang said helplessly, "How would I know what happened? Anyway, this was ordered by Mr. Wu of Chao Yiyong."
Yang Sheng sneered inwardly; his worst fears had come true.
Wu Tianhao personally took to the field.
He Wenchang is known for being a spineless coward. If Wu Tianhao intimidates him, he will probably give in immediately without even asking why.
Playing with the teacup in his hand, Yang Sheng did not look up, but said with a slightly sarcastic tone: "Old Ding, even if Chao Yiyong is powerful, he can't be so unruly, can he?"
"He can just order anyone to forfeit; why doesn't Crippled Hao go and be a referee at the Dragon City Championship?"
He Wenchang frowned and said, "Asheng, I know you feel wronged, but the price of angering Mr. Wu is too high. You can't afford it, and Hong Shenglian can't afford it either!"
This isn't a discussion, it's an order!
Don't forget, I'm still the old man in charge of Hong Sheng Lian. If you don't want to abstain, I'll abstain for you!
Yang Sheng stared at He Wenchang for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Don't be angry, Lao Ding. I didn't say I wouldn't forfeit."
