Wei Heng looked at A Heng, who was blocking his way, wearing a suit but whose figure was still hard to conceal, and his eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
This woman was half a head taller than him. Although she was dressed in a proper business suit, she exuded an air of unruly thuggishness.
Dafei glared angrily at Aheng, spitting a mouthful of phlegm on the ground: "Damn it, speak Mandarin, you mainland bumpkin, daring to put on airs in front of me!!"
Back then, Hong Kong was a highly developed country, and many mainlanders who illegally immigrated worked for the government. Even if you were from a privileged family, once you arrived in Hong Kong, you were considered a country bumpkin. You couldn't speak Cantonese, and even the old ladies sweeping the streets at roadside food stalls would scoff at you behind your back.
Women are called "Northern Girls" and men are called "Gold diggers," both extremely offensive terms. Being backward leads to discrimination, a phenomenon that has existed throughout history and across the world.
Dafei glared at Ning Yuan and sneered, "Hmph! I originally wanted to make a good start to your new company's opening by being friendly and getting some good fortune, but now I'll have to make you bleed a little as a red envelope!"
He grabbed the baseball bat handed to him by the person next to him: "Brothers, get them! Teach these bastards who's on Mong Kok!"
After saying that, he picked up a stick and swung it at Ah Heng's head. Several henchmen behind him also brandished their weapons, steel pipes and baseball bats, looking fierce and ready to fight to the death as they rushed over.
"Go outside and fight!" Ah Heng grabbed Da Fei, who was rushing up, and pushed him into the corridor like he was a helpless little chick.
Wei Heng also realized what was happening and pushed the other thugs out the door.
Today is the opening day, and Ning Yuan has carefully decorated the office; she can't let these thugs smash it up.
With a loud "bang!", the office door slammed shut, shutting out the noise from outside.
The corridor was thrown into chaos.
Ah Heng's moves were ruthless and cunning, each strike like a sharp, venomous snake, precisely targeting the opponent's vitals. He used the unique killing techniques of a special reconnaissance soldier.
Wei Heng, on the other hand, acted steadily and cautiously, knowing when to advance and retreat. He was able to protect himself while also keeping an eye on A Heng. The two worked together seamlessly, driving the group of thugs into a retreat.
Dafei was kicked in the stomach by Aheng and clutched his stomach, unable to get up for a long time.
Seeing that his men were outnumbered, Dafei realized the situation was dire. He brandished his baseball bat and fought back desperately while yelling at the top of his lungs, "Damn it, what are you all standing there for? Go get help! Call Brother Sheng!"
The two henchmen scrambled out, leaving only Dafei and a few thugs who were putting up a fight in the corridor. They were beaten by Aheng and Weiheng and fled in a sorry state.
People from other companies in the corridor saw this and were terrified; they all hid.
Not long after, a series of noisy footsteps came from the other end of the corridor, and a group of burly men in black suits walked over aggressively.
The leader was a tall man wearing a black shirt, with a refined and handsome face.
However, a long, menacing scar on his right cheek ruined his refined appearance, giving him a cold and gloomy look.
Behind him followed dozens of thugs wielding clubs and machetes, each one looking fierce and menacing.
The moment they appeared, the once noisy corridor fell silent, with only heavy breathing and low moans.
Upon seeing the other person, Dafei immediately seemed to have found his pillar of support, and ran over with a bruised and swollen face to complain—
"Brother Sheng, look at these guys from the mainland! Not only do they refuse to pay protection money, they even dare to injure our brothers! They're utterly lawless! They don't respect you or the 14K at all!"
When Ning Yuan saw the scarred man appear, her pupils contracted sharply, her face instantly turned cold and her eyes seemed to be covered with ice.
We've met again!
This scarred man is none other than Xiang Ziying!
No, he should be called Qin Changsheng now. How could he be here?
Moreover, he appeared as the leader of the 14K gang?
Back then, when we were in the capital, He Su interfered.
The Xiang brothers believed that Xiang Xiaosi died at the hands of Rong Zhaonan. In addition, there was a "scandal" between Xiang's eldest son's fiancée Ye Qiu and Rong Zhaonan. Furthermore, the development paths of the Xiang and Rong families were diverging, which ultimately made the two families mortal enemies.
For more than ten years, the brothers Xiang Ziying and Xiang Ziye tried to kill Rong Zhaonan several times, until the chaos was rectified and the elders of the Xiang family fell from power one after another.
Xiang Ziye, having nowhere else to turn, kidnapped her, intending to die together with her.
In the end, the eldest brother, Xiang Ziye, died at the hands of Rong Zhaonan, and the third brother, Xiang Ziying, was arrested. No one expected that this guy would actually escape from prison and flee to the Hong Kong government!
Although neither he nor his fourth uncle admitted that he was Xiang Ziye.
But Ning Yuan wasn't blind. She had seen Rong Zhaonan before he got into trouble, when she went to her fourth uncle for help!
She was absolutely certain that Qin Changsheng was Xiang Laosan—Xiang Ziying!
Ning Yuan looked at him warily, but on the surface, wasn't "Qin Changsheng" one of her fourth uncle's men?
Why does he seem to have such a high status in a triad like the 14K?
Dafei constantly looks down on people from the mainland, but he never dares to say anything bad about even half of the mainland in front of Qin Changsheng!
Qin Changsheng's gaze passed over Da Fei and landed on Ning Yuan, who was standing at the end of the corridor.
His pupils suddenly contracted, and he was slightly taken aback before resuming his expressionless demeanor.
Qin Changsheng glanced at the disheveled Da Fei and the henchman lying on the ground, and asked coldly, "What happened?"
Dafei was so angry with Ning Yuan and the others that he was bruised and battered. He then embellished the story and told them what had happened.
"Brother Sheng, you have to stand up for the brothers! These bastards, just because they're rich, they don't respect the 14K at all, and they've injured so many of our brothers!"
Of course, the fact that they provoked first was completely omitted.
Finally, he pointed at Ning Yuan and said fiercely, "Brother Sheng, this is the woman who led the attack on us!"
Qin Changsheng remained silent, his gaze falling once more on Ning Yuan, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
Ning Yuan met his gaze coldly. Don't think that just because you've changed your identity, I won't recognize you!
