Chapter 49: The Hongmen Banquet (Part 1)



Hearing the words of the young man in black, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Body search?

"Hurry up, put your hands up!"

A young man in black pushed Ding Li, who was standing at the back.

Ding Li shuddered and subconsciously raised his hands.

"And you..."

Another young man in black pointed at Xiao Chen and was about to touch him.

Bang.

Before his hand could touch Xiao Chen's clothes, he was kicked away by the latter.

"I don't like being touched by men. Stop touching me!" Xiao Chen's voice was cold.

"Fuck, you dare to do that!"

The other young men in black were furious and rushed towards Xiao Chen with their fists clenched.

Bang!

Xiao Chen didn't move at all, but Li Hanhou shook his body like a human tank and knocked the two young men in black away!

"Cut him!"

A young man in black saw his companion suffering a loss, roared angrily, took out a machete from the side, and slashed at Li Hanhou fiercely.

Li Hanhou's eyes turned cold. He dodged the opponent's attack by moving sideways and kicked him. The latter flew out with blood spitting out of his mouth.

"Stop!" The bald snake appeared. He looked at his fallen brother with anger flashing across his face. "Minister Xiao, why did you hurt my people?"

Xiao Chen looked at the bald snake and said coldly: "Remember, Huang Xing invited me here tonight, not me asking for his forgiveness... So, pay attention to your attitude!"

"Brother Snake, they won't allow a body search."

"Haha, since you are a guest, there is no need to search you!"

Before the bald snake could say anything, Huang Xing came out. He looked at Xiao Chen and was secretly surprised. Such a young top-notch master?

"Haha, you are Minister Xiao, right? Hello, I am Huang Xing, the leader of the Falcon Hall of the Falcon Gang!"

When Huang Xing was looking at Xiao Chen, the latter was also looking at him. He was of medium build, had a bad face, was a little fat, and looked a bit like a gang leader!

"Yes, I am Xiao Chen."

Xiao Chen nodded in a calm tone, and showed no intention of shaking hands with Huang Xing.

What a joke! They've already ambushed him, waiting to chop him into pieces, and he's still shaking hands!

Huang Xing looked at Xiao Chen's attitude, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't show anything on his face: "Minister Xiao, please come in, how about we eat and talk?"

"Okay, Dahan, let's go in and eat!"

"Okay!" Li Hanhou nodded. He could finally have dinner. He was almost starving to death!

Huang Xing glanced at Li Hanhou. Is he the guy that Da She was talking about? He seems to be quite strong!

However, when I thought about his arrangements and preparations, I didn’t care. No matter how powerful he was, could he dodge the bullet?

Today, this is his home court, and he can perform the play however he wants!

Xiao Chen walked inside with Li Hanhou and Ding Li, while Huang Xing winked at the bald snake, who nodded and made a gesture.

Xiao Chen saw the whole scene, but he didn't care. Since he dared to come today, he was ready for anything!

"Minister Xiao, please take a seat."

"good."

Xiao Chen sat down and glanced at Sun Fei who was wearing a floral shirt. He must be a master.

"Haha, what does Minister Xiao like to eat?" Huang Xing asked with a smile.

“Is there a menu?”

"ah?"

Huang Xing was stunned. He was just being polite, but this guy took it seriously? He even asked for a menu? Shit, is he really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Doesn't he know what today's banquet means?

"Why, such a big restaurant, no menu?"

Xiao Chen frowned, his tone somewhat displeased.

"Yes, of course!" Huang Xing suppressed his anger and waved his hand: "Give the menu to Minister Xiao and tell him to order the dishes carefully and enjoy them!"

"yes!"

Xiao Chen took the menu and handed it to Li Hanhou: "Da Han, order whatever you want to eat!"

"Thank you, Brother Chen!"

Li Hanhou smiled and nodded, took it, opened it, and without hesitation ordered more than ten dishes in one breath, and they were all hard dishes, either fish or meat!

"Is that enough?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.

"Well, that's enough. Oh, by the way, give me another braised lion head!" Li Hanhou thought of something and shouted.

“…”

Huang Xing's mouth twitched a few times. Damn it, do you really think I'm inviting you guys to dinner tonight? If the talks break down later, I'll chop you into meat sauce and make braised lion's head!

"Ding Li, what do you want to eat? Master Huang is treating us, you're welcome."

Xiao Chen looked at Ding Li, whose face was pale.

"I, I don't care... I, I'm not hungry."

Ding Li shook his head and stammered.

"Oh." Xiao Chen ordered a few more dishes, then threw the menu on the table: "Master Huang, what else do you want to eat?"

Huang Xing clenched his hands under the table, then loosened them and said with a forced smile, "That's about it. What shall we drink?"

"Moutai, please."

"Okay, let's go cook, hurry up!"

Huang Xing waved his hand and the waiter left quickly.

"Minister Xiao, I asked you to come here today because of the conflict a few days ago. I think this is just a misunderstanding. What do you think?"

"Haha, Master Huang said it was a misunderstanding, so it is a misunderstanding."

Xiao Chen smiled. If he could simply put this matter aside, he would not bother to make a big deal out of it. But there was a prerequisite: the other party should not go too far!

"Okay, that's great!" Huang Xing nodded with a smile, and finally felt better. "Minister Xiao, as the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. I'm holding a banquet today because I want to make friends with you!"

"Haha, I don't want to be an enemy of the Flying Eagle Gang either."

"With what Minister Xiao said, we are no longer enemies... That day, the big snake ran over to collect protection money and had a conflict with you, and he also learned a lesson..." Huang Xing said this and looked at the bald snake sitting next to him.

Bald Snake noticed the boss's gaze. Although he was unwilling, he still picked up the tea with one hand: "Minister Xiao, I was wrong about what happened that day... I will drink tea instead of wine first, and then punish myself with three cups later, how about that?"

"Haha, I forgot everything that happened that day."

Xiao Chen chuckled and took a sip of tea, but he was thinking, why haven't the dishes been served yet? Don't mention it, I'm really a little hungry.

The atmosphere in the private room seemed to be getting better and better. Huang Xing was not in a hurry to mention anything else. He chatted casually and mentioned the Flying Eagle Gang from time to time.

The food is here.

Li Hanhou, who had been silent all this time, looked at the plates of delicious dishes. His eyes suddenly lit up, like a sleeping beast in the wilderness that suddenly woke up.

Ding Li looked at Xiao Chen and Huang Xing who were chatting and laughing, and felt relieved. It seemed that although it was the Hongmen Banquet, it was developing in a good direction. There should be no fighting!

"Come on, Minister Xiao, have a drink. I'll toast you!"

Huang Xing picked up the wine glass and looked at Xiao Chen.

"Um."

The two men clinked their glasses and then drank the Moutai in them.

Huang Xing slowly put down his wine glass and was about to speak when he saw Xiao Chen had already started eating without any hesitation. While eating, he was talking to the big fool: "Da Han, try this, it tastes pretty good... and that..."

"Yeah, Brother Chen, this tastes really good... But, this braised lion head is not as good as the one in our company cafeteria..." Li Hanhou was eating so much that his mouth was full of oil, and he almost swallowed the plate.

"Haha, eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

"Uh-huh……"

"Minister Xiao, let's put the previous conflict aside for now. Da She has also apologized to you... As for the injuries he suffered, it was his own fault. What do you think?" Huang Xing organized his words and spoke.

"good."

Xiao Chen nodded readily and waited for Huang Xing's next words.

"I heard from Da She that Minister Xiao is a first-class master?" Huang Xing lit a cigar and asked while puffing out smoke.

"Haha, what first-rate or second-rate? I've only practiced for a few years. I'm not up to par." Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head.

"It's amazing that you can become a top-notch expert at such a young age. Have you ever been a soldier?"

Suddenly, Sun Fei, who had been silent, spoke.

"I served in the army for a few years." Xiao Chen looked at Sun Fei with a smile on his face, and said with a hint of amusement, "I've been in Longhai for a few days, and I've seen four top-notch experts. When did top-notch experts become commonplace?"

Sun Fei didn't say anything else and remained silent.

"Four?" Huang Xing was somewhat surprised and curious: "Who are they?"

"Haha, isn't there one right in front of me?" Xiao Chen pointed at Sun Fei and said, "Master Huang, tell me, what is it that you are looking for me for today?"

"Minister Xiao, how much do you earn a month at Qingcheng Company?"

Xiao Chen was stunned. Why are they bringing this up?

"Twenty thousand dollars."

"Only 20,000? Haha, Minister Xiao, as long as you come to help me, I will pay you 100,000 every month! In addition to a monthly salary of 100,000, if you work with me, you will have a car, a house, and a woman!" Huang Xing put forward his conditions.

Xiao Chen was stunned again. So this guy had this idea!

"Minister Xiao, no, I'll just call you Brother Xiao! Brother Xiao, to be honest, I'm just a little bit jealous of your talent..."

"Master Huang, don't you already have a first-rate master under your command?" Xiao Chen was a little curious. How could this guy come up with such an idea!

"Haha, who would complain about having too many talented people under them? What do you think? Brother Xiao, following me is definitely more promising than working in Qingcheng Company!"

"Future? Haha, one is white and the other is black, how can they be compared? I really can't imagine what future there is in being in the underworld." Xiao Chen took a sip of wine and said to Huang Xing.

Huang Xing's smile faded a little: "Why, Brother Xiao, you don't want to join the underworld? Or do you look down on me, Huang Xing?"

"No, I don't look down on anyone. Everyone has their own aspirations. I hope that Master Huang won't make things difficult for me."

Huang Xing's smile completely disappeared: "It seems that Minister Xiao really doesn't give me face?"

"Hey, are you so shameless? My brother said that he doesn't want to be with you, don't you understand?" Li Hanhou swallowed a mouthful of meat and said in a muffled voice.

As soon as Li Hanhou said this, Huang Xing, Bald Snake and others all looked gloomy, and the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became cold, as if it had turned directly from spring to severe winter!

"Minister Xiao, is this what you mean?"

Huang Xing asked coldly, and his address changed from "Brother Xiao" to "Minister Xiao".

"Yes, what he meant is what I meant." Xiao Chen said lightly while playing with the wine glass.
