69. Rules in Jianghu

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

In the reception hall behind the Ye Family’s courtyard

It should have been an elegant and harmonious place, but now… it was not so elegant.

More than ten people were currently cuffing and kicking someone squatting in the middle.

This person was none other than Ling Fan from the Qing Gang.

This scene was very similar to when Ling Fan had just been reborn. There were more than ten people beating him up.

What was different was that compared to those lousy little punks in school last time, these were must superior. At least, judging from the rhythm of their beating, one could tell they were some martial arts practitioners.

At this moment, Ling Fan, who seemed to have been beaten miserably, looked so calm.

But, the men who were brought by Ling Fan, including Lu Qi, couldn’t stay calm.

That was their boss, who had always been the superior existence. How can they endure it for nothing? If they really did, they would become a bunch of turtles!

After all, they had ever gone through the sea of knives and guns, but as they were about to rush up, they were stopped by a hard stare from Ling Fan and they clenched their fists and stood on the spot.

Today, Ling Fan did not bring many people to the Ye Family, so he didn’t want them to risk their lives here…

Compared with the ‘bustling’ scene here…

At this moment, there was a person sitting on an old-fashioned wooden armchair in the living hall, drinking tea leisurely.

This person who looked no different from those old men who practiced calligraphy in the park was none other than the Ye Family’s owner, Ye Huaxiong.

“Ahem, ahem, well…” Ye Huaxiong put down that cup of tea in his hand and finally opened his mouth.

However, Ye Huaxiong waved his hand to stop them as if he was annoyed by the noise of those people beating him up.

“Qing Gang? Hehe, a small gang that has recently been making a ruckus in Liuhe District, right? ”

“Humph, you know some rules.”

“You sent me an invitation and I came to see you. This is rules, but you guys came to my Ye Family’s territory to cause trouble, you broke the rules.” Ye Huaxiong narrowed his eyes and said, “Since you broke the rules, you should be punished.”

“Take this beating as a gift from a senior, young man.”

“No, no, don’t stand up first. I’m not finished yet. Continue,” Ye Huaxiong’s eyes turned cold and he signaled the few thugs to continue.

He was an old man nearly reaching his eighty. What kind of storm had he never seen before? If this was in the past, it would be a woman’s doing he despised.

But…This person was old, he had to cultivate his moral character, and also accumulate some blessing for his future generations, right?

Therefore, that little bastard of the Qing Gang was lucky. If he performed well, he might still be able to stay alive after going out of here.

Ye Huaxiong had planned all these.

However, Ling Fan was a variable and he did not like to play cards according to common sense…

“Isn’t it enough?” Suddenly, Ling Fan, who had been silent all this time, slowly said.

As a fist was about to hit in Ling Fan’s face, people heard the sound of a fracture and a cry of pain. Then a guy fell onto the ground.

Of course, this person was not Ling Fan but one of those thugs.

As he watched as the person who had been beaten obediently before suddenly fought back, while the thug he had specially trained was actually like a weak chicken in front of that gang bastard, Ye Huaxiong looked astonished apparently.

However, as an old school in jianghu, soon enough, Ye Huaxong regained his composure and waved his hand to make the few thugs retreat to one side.

“Hum, you look young, but has superb martial arts.”

“But…” Ye Huaxiong suddenly changed his tone, “Don’t forget, this is the Ye family!”

“Do you think you can walk out of my place with your few thugs and your little martial arts skills? Hum! Don’t be silly!” He did not dare to say it in somewhere else, but in the Ye Family, he, Ye Huaxiong, was the Jade Emperor, no, the Yen-Wang-Yeh(King of Hell)!

Originally, he thought except that the courtyard wall got splashed with some blood, the house on that side was all right. This little young man of the Qing Gang obediently let him find a chance to dispel his anger, but now he even had the balls to fight back. Don’t blame him if he lost his life this time.

“But before you offer your life here, I will also give you a suggestion for your next life. You know, people, especially young people, can’t be too impulsive. Even if you want to risk your life, you have to see if you are lucky enough to survive.”

When they heard Ye Huaxong’s words, Lu Bing and others who stood beside changed their faces. They had already been prepared for a heated fight.

But at this moment, Ling Fan smiled like he didn’t give it a sh*t.

“Risk my life? Haha…have I ever said that?”

Ling Fan smiled while getting up. Then, he wiped off the blood at the corner of his mouth and looked back at Ye Huaxiong, who was still in his armchair.

“Or… the head of the Ye family thinks I need to risk my life?” Ling Fan asked back.

In Ye Huaxiong’s opinion, such an attitude was completely like a reckless and silly act.

“Hmph, so arrogant!” Ye Huaxiong commented coldly.

“However, I have the capital to be arrogant,” Ling Fan grinned and said blandly.

He cherished his life more than anyone, so he would not seek death for no reason or do something he had no confidence in.

If he had no such confidence, he would not have brought so few people to the Ye Family.

As for why he had to suffer that beating…

First of all, it was true that they had broken the rules. Secondly, he had to use this matter to let Lu Qi and his other subordinates remember learn a lesson about what they could do and what they couldn’t…

Of course, there was another reason…

Ling Fan was annoyed because of Chu Xiao’s thing. Even the matter Wuzi got caught by Ye family did not overshadow his frustration deep in the heart.

Ling Fan wanted to find a way to vent the chaos and annoyance in his heart, so that he could wake himself up…

It was just that the method he chose was a little too extreme…

However, the pain in his body temporarily made him feel less annoyed, and reminded him of the tragedy of his past life…

This was very good.

As for now, it was time for him to get back to his business and also resumed his dignity.

At this moment, the calmness and even confidence on Ling Fan’s face finally aroused Ye Huaxiong’s vigilance.

“Tell me your chips,” Ye Huaxiong asked while looking at Ling Fan.

At this age, Ye Huaxiong had seen countless people, so he could read people. Someone like Ling Fan was not like bluffing now…

However, before Ling Fan could speak, the housekeeper of the Ye Family rushed in and whispered in Ye Huaxiong’s ear. The expression on his face was not good.

After listening to the housekeeper, the expression on Ye Huaxiong’s face could be described as super angry.

“Are you sure you saw the person in the car clearly?”

“Yes, I’ve confirmed it. It is indeed the little master,” the housekeeper nodded.

Looking at Ye Huaxiong’s expression, he was actually shocked too. It had been so many years since the lord showed such an expression… However, on a second thought, it made sense. The little master was the lord’s treasure now. Whoever touched him was asking for his death!

“Hmph, Qing Gang kidnapped my grandson? This kind of nasty thing, haha, good! Good!”

“I don’t want to break the rules either, but as you can see, our Qing Gang has few people. We have no choice but to do this,” Ling Fan raised his eyebrows and said.

Ye Huaxiong’s grandson was the Ye Family’s only seedling.

“I have dirtied the Ye family’s residence. I apologize. As for my brothers, use the little master to exchange for them, I think…you won’t say no, will you?” Ling Fan raised his eyebrows and asked.

In fact, it was true that Ye Huaxiong could not refuse.

The dog lives of those few people were even not as important as one of his grandson’s hair!

“Alright, let go of my grandson and I’ll let you take your bunch of bastards away!” Ye Huaxiong gritted his teeth.

However, after this, the two sides would bear the grudge. To wipe out a small nasty gang was as easy as pie to the Ye family.

“OK. But you know, I don’t think I am man of no rules, so please let my brother go first, and then I will let your grandson go. This is the Ye family. If I do anything to the little master, I believe that you can kill me in a second, right?” Ling Fan said casually.

However, Ye Huaxiong could not do anything about it since his grandson was in his hands.

“Ye Qian, let them go.”

“Yes…”

After Ling Fan confirmed that his people were just beaten up and had no life-threatening injuries, he also informed Monkey outside to let the kid go.

“Kid, I will give you a last piece of advice. I will remember what you did today and you got to be careful in the future,” Ye Huaxiong said coldly as he watched Ling Fan and the rest leave.

However, Ling Fan seemed quite indifferent about it.

“Hehe, thank you for your advice,” Ling Fan said with a faint smile.

He even dared to provoke Chu Xiao, yet he was afraid of Ye family?

In the car

Wuzi who was ‘saved’ looked at Ling Fan with guilt.

“Boss, I’m sorry. I didn’t regulate them well…”

“Mm,” Ling Fan nodded. “You don’t have to apologize for this, but you have to remember this lesson.”

Lei Wu was relieved after hearing Ling Fan’s words.

“Yes, I promise this wouldn’t happen again,” Lei Wu promised Ling Fan seriously.

“Mm, as long as you remember it.”

“Well, boss..” After a while, seeing that Ling Fan didn’t say anything, Lei Wu couldn’t help but curiously speak again.

“Boss, how do you know where Ye Huaxiong’s grandson was and kidnapped him so smoothly?” That was the only grandson of Ye family! It wouldn’t be that easy to kidnap him!

“The little master of the Ye family?” Ling Fan suddenly smiled when he said this. “You should thank your son for having a good taste in making friends.”

“Huh? What does that mean?” What did this have to do with his son?

Lei Wu was confused.

“Little Master of the Ye Family, Ye Tian, a good friend of Lei Lei in the kindergarten. Tiantian came to play at our house the other day.”

“Fu*k! Tiantian?! You mean that Tiantian is the little master of the Ye Family! Holy crap… ”

Isn’t it too coincidental…

As he sighed, Lei Wu also started to complain about his boss like this…

Also, could his son and that good friend still hang out in the future…

While Lei Wu was complaining, Ye Tian rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked up to Ye Huaxiong.

“Oh, my treasured grandson, are you alright?” Ye Huaxiong squatted down nervously and checked whether Ye Tian was hurt.

“No, I’m fine. Huh? Grandpa, are the driver and and brother Fan already gone? I haven’t shown them the painting that I want to give to Lei Lei…”

“What did you say? What brother?”

“The one just now, the handsome Brother Fan. I told you before, my good friend Lei Ming’s elder brother. I even went to Lei Lei’s house to hang out with him. I didn’t expect Brother Fan came to our home. Grandfather, I’m telling you, Brother Fan is a good guy…”

Ling Fan was indeed very good to this good friend of Lei Lei.

However, after listening to what he said, Ye Huaxiong was not feeling well…

“That little bastard! He fooled me!”
