Chapter 28: Showing Off

  Kong Erdou also stood up and made a fist, smiling: "Captain Huang, sorry about this, I'm just borrowing your turf to take care of some small business. If I've offended you in any way, please forgive me."

  Kong Erdou didn't follow the usual practice of calling Huang Tianbao "San Pao", but instead shouted "Huang Team Leader", which meant to make it clear to Huang Tianbao: handle official business in an official manner!

  "Alright, alright." Huang Tianbao took a look around and walked to Chu Tian Shu's side, sneaking a glance at the card on the table, confirming that it was indeed a Diamond VIP card.

  Chu Tian Shu saw Lian take out the card from his hand, and the triumphant security captain quickly ran in, thinking to himself that this card was not light in weight. It seemed that Qi Da Guang had no hope, so he could only use a dead horse as if it were alive. He took the card and handed it over to Huang Tian Bao, with a gloomy face saying: "These two are my invited guests, they seem to have displeased Second Brother, Captain Huang, I'll hand them over to you, after Second Brother has dealt with them, I'll come back for them."

  "Wait a minute, friend," said Huang Tianbao, feigning great surprise. He turned to ask Kong Erdou, "Second Brother, is this true?"

  Chu Tian Shu pulled out the card and shouted to pay the bill, but instead of a waiter, it was Huang Tian Bao who came in. Kong Er Gou felt that something was not quite right, and when he saw Huang Tian Bao's attitude towards Chu Tian Shu, he more or less understood that this young man must have some connection with the Kai Xuan Hotel.

  Kong Er Gou didn't beat around the bush and said straightforwardly, "Captain Huang, my family's Qin Shao was kicked in the butt by these two. You tell me, should I or shouldn't I ask about it?"

  "Right! Right!" Huang Tianbao nodded and bowed. "However, Second Brother, I think these few people don't seem like the kind to provoke trouble either. Could there be some misunderstanding here?"

  Upon hearing this, Huang Tianbao's intention to help Chu Tian Shu was already revealed without a doubt.

  Kong Er Gou didn't say much and turned his head to ask Xiao Pangzi: "Qin Shao, what's going on?"

  It's clear that the little fatty in his teens is also afraid of Kong Er Gou. He pointed at Zhao Pingyuan and Huang Li with his finger, saying somewhat timidly: "I just touched that girl a bit, and that guy kicked my butt."

  Chu Tian Shu walked up and asked: "Little brother, where did he kick your butt?"

  The little fatty said with a stern expression: "It was right here in this private room that many people saw it."

  Chu Tian Shu smiled and said: "Hehe, little brother, why don't you sit in your own private room drinking wine, how come you have to bring your butt to our private room?"

  "Th...". The little fatty was at a loss for words.

  Huang Tianbao smiled and looked at Kong Erdou.

  Kong Er Gou's face looked unpleasant.

  Chu Tian Shu looked at Huang Li and said: "Huang Li, he came in with you, what's going on?"

  Huang Li was already frightened and pale, she sobbed and said intermittently: "I came out of the bathroom, he touched me... here, and also this, I was so scared that I quickly ran into the package room, he... also chased in and pinched me here." Huang Li gestured to her chest, buttocks, and thighs while speaking.

  Huang Tianbao smiled and said to Kong Ergou: "Ergou, so it's even now?"

  Kong Er Gou's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.

  Little fatty continued to argue: "Second brother, I don't care, he kicked my butt, so I'll kick him back."

  Kong Erdou listened and didn't get anxious or annoyed, kicking the difficult problem to Huang Tianbao: "Captain Huang, look, my family's Qin Shao has a childish temper, I also can't advise him well, you see this..."

  Chu Tian Shu said: "Qin Shao, my friend has offended you, I'll apologize and make amends on their behalf, is that alright?"

  The little fatty was indeed a bit short-sighted, not knowing when to stop while he's ahead. He glared at Chu Tian Shu and shouted: "Alright, then let me kick your butt twice."

  The situation, which had originally eased, was suddenly stirred up again by Xiao Pangzi's unreasonable behavior and immediately became tense once more.

  Since there was no way back, Chu Tian Shu decided to grit his teeth and take a gamble, choosing an even more hardline approach.

  "Hmph, no problem." Chu Tian Shu sneered and said: "Then your dirty hands touched my friend, shouldn't you chop off your paws?"

  Xiao Pangzi was startled and put his hands behind his back, staring at Chu Tian Shu like an idiot.

  Kong Erdou and Huang Tianbao were also shocked at the same time.

  This kid is a unique character, his guts are truly not small, he can say such harsh words that are rarely seen on the road!

  The atmosphere suddenly became tense, like a bow and arrow full of strings, ready to be triggered at any moment.

  However, in terms of momentum, Chu Tian Shu had already taken the upper hand.

  The most difficult one now is Huang Tianbao.

  If Little Fatty insists on kicking Chu Tian Shu's butt, after the matter is over, Chu Tian Shu will definitely insist on getting his paws. In that case, Kong Er Gou will definitely not agree, and once they turn against each other, Huang Tian Bao will be in a difficult position.

  However, Chu Tian Shu's words were too harsh, and Kong Er Gou would not admit defeat. As a well-known figure in the underworld, he would rather die than lose face in front of an unknown little person.

  Huang Tianbao clearly sensed the severity of the issue. Since neither side could afford to offend the other, he had no choice but to take responsibility himself. He furrowed his brow and said to Kong Erdou: "Qin Shao is your boss's family member, this gentleman is my boss's friend, and was injured on my turf. My fault is too great. How about this? I'll slap myself in the face as an apology to all of you?"

  Huang Tianbao is indeed a worldly figure, this step is found to be very level-headed. As soon as he spoke, he immediately got himself out of trouble and threw the difficult problem to Kong Erdou.

  Kong Erdou originally just wanted to save face and get back at Chu Tian Shu, so he naturally wouldn't let Huang Tian Bao take the blame for him. For such a trivial matter, it would be unwise to make an enemy out of it and possibly damage the relationship between the two bosses. How could Kong Erdou do something that would bring no benefits to either side?

  Kong Erdou grabbed Huang Tianbao's raised right hand and said with a smile: "Third Brother Sanpao, everyone was just joking around, why did you take it seriously?"

  As soon as he opened his mouth, the terrifying and chilling tension finally eased up.

  Huang Tianbao grasped Kong Ergou's hand and laughed: "Haha, I knew Second Brother would give Sanpao this face. Another day, I'll specially set up a banquet to thank you."

  "Alright, it's settled then. I'll also trouble San Pao to give my regards to Da Pao and Er Pao, haha." Kong Er Gou smiled, suddenly turned around, and waved at Xiao Pangzi and the man in white, saying: "Let's go."

  As he passed by Chu Tian Shu's side, Kong Er Gou said in a low voice: "Brother, leave a name, I think we'll meet again."

  "In the future, Chu Tian Shu! Goodbye, no need to see me off!" Chu Tian Shu smiled and left.

  Kong Erdou was extremely depressed, he really couldn't understand where this seemingly ordinary young man got his confidence and courage from, daring to call out to someone on the road, until they walked out of the Kaixuan Hotel, his heart still felt like it had been pricked by a needle, aching quietly.

  Kong Er Gou and others had just left the door when Huang Li burst into loud sobs.

  Zhao Pingyuan rushed forward, tightly grasping Chu Tian Shu's hand, and said excitedly: "Tian Shu, adversity reveals true feelings, I finally see who is the real brother."

  Chu Tian Shu and Zhao Ping Yuan's palms were both wet with sweat, the thrilling experience just now had left them both clutching a handful of sweat.

  "Xiao Zhao, don't be polite, you are all my invited guests, no matter who it is, I won't abandon anyone." Chu Tian Shu shook Zhao Ping Yuan's hand and smiled: "You go comfort Huang Li, I still have to pay the bill."

  The duty manager rushed in and looked at Chu Tian Shu with admiring eyes. "Our boss has instructed that if the distinguished guests who have made a comeback are not well-received in the store, they will be exempt from payment."

  "Thank you, thank you on behalf of Director Guo Qing." Chu Tian Shu unhesitatingly reported Guo Qing's name, making the play even more realistic. He stretched out his hand to Huang Tian Bao and said emotionally: "Captain Huang, I've troubled you, this favor, I owe it to you."

  Huang Tianbao wiped his sweat and smiled: "No, no, you are our triumphant noble guest, ensuring the safety of guests is the responsibility of a security captain like me."

  After some polite conversation, Chu Tian Shu bid farewell to Huang Tian Bao and the others.

  The female manager on duty saw him off personally.

  Zhao Pingyuan continued to express his gratitude.

  Chu Tian Shu patted his shoulder and said, "Little Zhao, don't say anything more. We're all colleagues after all. In the future, be more careful when things happen, don't be too impulsive. You also saw that there are some people we really can't afford to offend."

  Zhao Pingyuan nodded vigorously.

  Chu Tian Shu walked out of the Kaiyuan Hotel's main entrance with Zhao Ping Yuan and Huang Li.

  Under the night sky, the five big words "Grand Victory Hotel" shine brightly, looking luxurious and elegant. A gentle breeze blows by, with music drifting over, making one feel carefree and joyful.

  As soon as the three people walked onto the square in front of the door, Fan Yibing, Liu Chunna and others emerged from the darkness and surrounded them with a whoosh.

  Liu Chunna was choked with tears and looked up and down at Chu Tian Shu, for a moment she couldn't say a word.

  Qian Meihua hugged Huang Li, who had cried until she was tearful, and patted her back, comforting her repeatedly.

  Fan Yibing, Zhang Guoping and Wan Peng dragged Zhao Pingyuan away, asking him questions.

  Driver Lao Miao and Xiao Zhu also walked over and handed Zhao Pingyuan a cigarette.

  Everyone else at the dinner table had arrived, but there was no sign of Zhai Daguang.

  Zhao Pingyuan looked around and cursed, "Damn it, Qi Daguang, what the hell is wrong with him? When something happens, he only thinks of himself and runs away faster than a rabbit. This kind of person is really not worthy of being a leader."

  Everyone shook their heads in unison, expressing their utmost contempt for Zhi Daguang.

  Chu Tian Shu quietly bumped Liu Chun Na and whispered: "Chun Na, don't cry, everyone is watching. Am I not fine?"

  Liu Chunna burst into laughter and said: "After Brother Fan brought us out, he was still preparing to rush in, but I and Qian Dajie held him back tightly."

  Chu Tian Shu waved his hand at Fan Yi Bing and threw him a grateful glance.

  Fan Yibing smiled and waved his hand without saying a word.

  Zheng Xiaomin's tears flowed freely, hugging Chu Tian Shu's arm, excitedly saying: "Chu Ge, Chu Ge, you're too amazing, I want to be your little sister."

  Everyone burst out laughing and said from the bottom of their hearts, "Chu Tian Shu has done what he said, he is indeed his own man. Even the King of Heaven cannot move him. From now on, we will all listen to Chu Tian Shu."

  "Hey brothers, once we're at the company, we can't talk like this. We're all in the same department, so we have to help each other out and advance or retreat together. Alright, be careful on your way home and get some rest."

  Zhao Pingyuan is in charge of sending Huang Li.

  Fan Yibing sends Qian Meihua.

  Lao Miao and Xiao Zhu walked away with cigarettes in their mouths.

  Zhang Guoping and Wan Peng went home together.

  Liu Chunna and Zheng Xiaomin each held one of Chu Tian Shu's arms, standing at the entrance of the Kaixuan Hotel, waiting for a taxi.

  A taxi soon came over, and Chu Tian Shu let Liu Chun Na and Zheng Xiao Min get in the back seat. Just as he was about to get in, Huang Tian Bao ran over panting and shouted: "Chu brother, wait a minute."
