Chapter 71 The Big Shots in Jiang City Get Together
The gangsters in Jinsha District all came here after getting news from the Heaven King Palace, but they came and went quickly. After being beaten by Dumbass, they left one by one in a state of panic. Although Dumbass was holding his strength, the hospital was likely going to be overcrowded today.
Returning to the noodle house, looking at the empty noodle house, Wang Guifang said with a worried face, âLil Bin, how can we provoke so many people? If they come and make trouble every day, who would dare to come and eat at our restaurantâŚâ
In fact, Wang Guifang was trying to ask Xiao Bing how did he end up getting into this kind of trouble. However, Xiao Bing was the manager here after all. He was easygoing as well. So she couldnât be so straightforward.
Xiao Bing smiled, understanding Wang Guifangâs concern. âAuntie Wang, donât worry. I will settle this as soon as possible. I will go through the procedures of buying the store next door and start the expansion. Everyone, you donât have to come in tomorrow. In half a month, the noodle house will be built and we can have an opening ceremony then. When the time comes, Auntie Li will leave the hospital and attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony together. I guarantee that the Xiaoxiao Noodle House will become a forbidden area in Jiang City. From that day onward, no one in the whole Jinsha District will dare to cause trouble in the Xiaoxiao Noodle House!â
The problem with the North Heaven Queen had to be deal with. Even though the matter was solved today, it might deter them for a few days at best. It didnât mean that these gangsters wouldnât think of other ways. They probably would come up with some secret ways.
âDamn it. The North Heaven Queen is very shameless. She refused to show up when I was in her house. But secretly let the gangsters in the entire Northern District come and harass me and leave no peace for me. More importantly, the police already know me. So itâs impossible to go to Beizhuang again. The North Heaven Queen would not show up if I go again. Iâm an easy target out here and she is hiding in the darkness. She is trying to convince me and forcing me to take the initiative to make peace.â
Xiao Bing was not afraid of playing rough with others. He was more worried that others would ignore him. After what has just happened, he allowed everyone to retire early for the day. Then, a call came from Yezi. After picking up the phone, he said wryly, âYezi, Iâve been a little busy these two days and havenât had time to take care of you.â
âI know.â Yezi did not sound unhappy but worried instead. âMaking a mess at Beizhuang. Brother Bing, you are really something for kicking up such a fuss at the Northern Manor!â
Xiao Bing touched his nose and smiled wryly. âHow did news spread so fast? I just did it yesterday and you know already? â
Yezi said seriously, âBrother Bing, do you know what kind of place the Northern Manor is? Itâs known as the forbidden area of gangsters in the three northern districts of Jiang City. The North Heaven Queen sits in it and commands the gangsters in the northern district. No one dares to disobey! Destroying the Temple of the Heavenly King is equivalent to offending a quarter of the underground world of Jiang City, especially now the North Heaven Queen launched a fatwa. Even if you are invincible, arenât you afraid of putting the people around you in harmâs way? You came to Jiang City to protect Su Xiaoxiao. Arenât you afraid of bringing trouble to her? Itâs not easy to hide from the people in the dark. Arenât you afraid of living in fear every day?â
Xiao Bing smiled wryly. âThen what do you propose?â
He continued smiling wryly. âAre you saying that I should leave Jiang City?â
âIf you really leave Jiang City, I really hate to part with youâŚâ Yeziâs sweet and soft voice stirred Xiao Bingâs heart. He felt an urge to see her immediately and enveloped her in his embrace.
Xiao Bing smiled. âWhat do you think I should do?â
âThe best thing for you to do is to make peace. Your real purpose is protecting Su Xiaoxiao. It is not suitable to cause any other trouble. Your feud with the North Heaven Queen is deep but that doesnât mean that no one can reconcile it. My father has already contacted Master Hou after hearing about this.â
âOn the surface, it looks like the four Heaven Kings are controlling the whole underground world of Jiang City but every one of them is actually working for Master Hou. Master Hou has a profound mind and is ambitious. He controls the strongest force in the underground world of the whole Black Province. Even my father is terrified of him. Letâs talk about it later. Either way, the four Heaven Kings serve Master Hou and serve as his four trump cards. They are also loyal to him. So my father has invited Master Hou to our home for dinner this evening. He also contacted the North Heaven Queen and told me to invite you.â
âBrother Bing, this is the best chance for mediation. The underground world of Jiang City is far more complicated and more terrible than in any other city. Our Ye Family is the economic pillar of the city and an important force even if in the entire Black Province. Master Hou will pay my family some respect and definitely wouldnât make you feel wronged.â
âI know.â Xiao Bing wore an elusive smile. âSince everyone will present today, Iâll go.â
Yezi breathed a sigh of relief. The reason she said so much was that she knew he could be too strong-willed and stubborn about it. After getting Xiao Bingâs agreement, she quickly said, âThen, I will send a car to pick you up now. Where are you?â
âIâm at the noodle house. Donât send me a car. I will just take a taxi.â
âThatâs fine too. I think they will be here soon. You should come earlier.â
âOkay.â
Xiao Bing frowned after ending the call. âYezi, Iâm afraid Iâm going to disappoint you this timeâŚâ
He looked at Wang Guifang who had not left yet and said, âAuntie Wang, Iâm going out with Dumbass. Please lock the door before you leave.â
Wang Guifang replied, âAlright. Oh, by the way, donât take what I said too seriously⌠You will be the owner of this restaurant in the future and will soon take a stake in it. Iâm just worried about the business here.â
âI know.â Xiao Bing smiled. âAuntie Wang, donât worry about it. Iâm not angry⌠Besides, itâs like what you said. I will also be one of the owners of this store after the expansion. Iâm happy to see that business is doing well. Of course, I also like employees who put prioritize the store. Iâll find Dumbass first. Auntie Wang, do go home early after packing up.â
After going to the restroom, he found Dumbass lying on the bed fast asleep and making a rumbling purr with his mouth. He smiled and kicked Dumbass in the ass, causing the latter to jump up and out of from the bed. Surprised, he asked, âWho is it? âWho is it?â
After his vision cleared up enough for him to see that it was Xiao Bing, Dumbass rubbed his drowsy-looking eyes and said weakly, âBrother Bing, why did you kick my ass?â
Xiao Bing laughed. âTo take you to dinner. Are you coming?â
Dumbassâs eyes lit up and smirked. âGood ass-kicking. Iâll go, Iâll go.â
He followed Xiao Bing out of the noodle house, grinning all the way. They called a taxi and headed for the Ye Family Manor.
When they entered the hall, the servants bowed respectfully to Xiao Bing. âMr. Xiao, dinner has just begun. Our master told me to invite you to the dining hall.â
âPlease lead the way.â
The North Heaven Queen had repeatedly sent people to find his trouble. The reason Xiao Bing agreed to come over was that he felt like it was the time to meet with this woman. More importantly, he was ready to do a certain something in front of so many important people.
When they reached the restaurant, Xiao Bing immediately stopped. The first one he looked at was a middle-aged man in his 40s. One of the main seats at the end of the table was occupied by Ye Bancheng and the other was occupied by this middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man wore a plaid suit, leather shoes, a branded watch on his wrist, and a gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He looked elegant, but it happened that he gave Xiao Bing a very strong sense of danger. Even when Xiao Bing was on duty, this feeling of danger was hard to come by. Usually, only big bosses could give him this kind of feeling. âIs this person⌠Master Hou that Yezi talked about? But in terms of temperament, it doesnât look like itâs him.â
The middle-aged man appeared to have noticed someone looking at him and immediately turned to look at Xiao Bing. His eyes were gentle but Xiao Bing had the impression that there was a devil hiding inside an angelâs body. This man was undoubtedly more complicated than his appearance suggested.
Noticing Xiao Bingâs arrival, Ye Bancheng rose slightly and smiled. âLil Bin, come and sit down. Sit down next to our Lil Xi.â
Seeing Yezi looking at himself, Xiao Bing smiled and nodded to Ye Bancheng. He walked over and said, âIâm a little late. Iâll punish myself with two cups of wine later.â
He pulled a chair and sat down beside Yezi. Then, he addressed Ye Bancheng and said, âUncle Ye, this is my friend who came with me. Is it alright to let him join us?â
âOf course. Your friend is our friend. Come on, sit down and letâs eat together. Whatâs the name of this young man?â
Dumbass sat down beside Xiao Bing and grinned. âMy name is Dumbass.â

âPfft!â Several servants in the hall couldnât help laughing. Even the middle-aged man could not suppress a smile Ye Bancheng laughed loudly. âGood name, good name, mainly because it is interesting. Sit down and eat. Make yourself at home. Sit and eat.â
Dumbass didnât know how to be polite. He started eating after sitting down.
Ye Bancheng smiled. âThis is the famous Peony Fairy of Jiang City.â
Xiao Bing looked at the Peony Fairy, a woman whose face was hidden behind a white veil. Even so, he could still see the temptation that her eyes exuded behind the veil.
