"Exactly, mainland girls don't know their place."
"Coming to challenge us in Xinyi City, trying to negotiate with Brother Long, be careful, Brother Long might just shoot you dead, hahaha!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Chu Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
Longcheng saw her expression and felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Well, normally when they're wielding knives and walls, they talk about brotherhood and loyalty, calling each other "big brother" and "little brother," thinking it's quite impressive. But when they say these things in a formal setting, they inexplicably feel ashamed.
It's like you're at the United Nations General Assembly, shouting, "Big brother, let's wipe him out!"
This will only make people think you're a brainless, uncultured idiot, not that you're any great!
Chu Yu exudes righteousness. Her appearance and attire are far superior to those of gang girls. She looks like a cultured person who has received higher education and attended a regular university.
How can you speak to a cultured person in this tone?
Long Cheng, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, shuffled the cards and glanced at her sideways. "How did you know I'm Long Cheng?"
Chu Yu remained calm and composed. "When I pushed the door open, everyone in the room looked at me, but you didn't look up. The one who kept his composure the most must be the boss."
This flattery was so effective that all the underlings felt they had lost.
Judging from their boss's expression, he was clearly very pleased. If they had known that their boss liked this kind of flattery from cultured people, they wouldn't have bothered to praise him as having boundless charm, being a master at seducing women, and being the kingpin in bed.
Long Cheng took a drag of his cigarette, squinted, and gave a half-smile:
"You're quite composed. You say you're from a mainland film and television company, but do you even know this is my Xinyi City's territory? Filming on my turf without even asking me, what will other gangs think of me if they find out?"
Chu Yu didn't understand, "If you don't tell, and I don't tell, which branch will know?"
Longcheng: "..."
Long Cheng was speechless. His twin swords were hanging on the wall. He took them down, and before Chu Yu could react, the swords were pressed against her neck.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
Chu Yu pondered his attitude and told the truth: "I'm afraid."
"Afraid? You look scared? I've been a big shot in Hong Kong for so long, with over five thousand brothers under my command, and only one of them dares to talk to me like that."
Long Cheng looked displeased, his curved blade hovering over Chu Yu's delicate neck, as if he wanted to slit her throat from some angle.
Chu Yu knew that he must have had a purpose in calling her here.
Surely we didn't send her on a day trip?
If it's for ransom, that should have been made clear over the phone, and she should have brought the money before coming to the door.
Longcheng had never seen himself before, let alone for lust.
He wasn't being coy with Dai Donglin; it couldn't possibly be a case of making an example of someone.
After much thought, Chu Yu felt that this fearsome boss's attitude was hard to fathom.
Chu Yu spoke frankly:
"Fear of someone doesn't necessarily have to be shown on your face; it can be buried in your heart. I'm afraid of you, but I don't want you to know. When people are afraid, they have weaknesses and feel inferior. I want to stand on an equal footing and talk to you."
Longcheng chuckled, seemingly mocking her cowardice, but ultimately sheathed his scimitar.
"Don't worry, my knife may be fast, but I'm a man..." Long Cheng clicked his tongue.
Chu Yu figured he was calling for her to respond, so she asked, "You don't hit women?"
"Who said I don't hit women?" Long Cheng gave him a look that said, "You've watched too many trashy TV dramas. I love hitting women, but my knife doesn't like women's blood. Women in this world are always too fragile, which makes them repulsive."
As Long Cheng spoke, he walked straight to the basement, with Chu Yu following behind him. Li Jinchao wanted to go with them, but was stopped by Long Cheng's men. Chu Yu could only look at him reassuringly.
As soon as the basement lights were turned on, someone jumped up.
"Chu Yu!" Zhong Buyi shouted.
Long Cheng sneered: "Oh, you two are calling each other so affectionately, are you having an affair?"
Chu Yu ignored him, checked the bound arms of Zhong Buyi and the others, and asked:
"What exactly does Mr. Long mean?"
