After Beating the Game, I Became the Villain BOSS Chapter 391 - 272: Overture from the Crow’s Nest

Hong Chenle, the newly appointed leader of Crow’s Nest, made an appearance that caught everyone by surprise.

Shangguan Li reprimanded coldly, "Hey, didn’t you say the Ashen Gang was hosting a al? What’s the point of calling in people from the Crow’s Nest?"

Hong Chenle entered the room, smiling brightly, "Pardon, pardon, I heard Mr. Abraham invited the Seven Stars of the New Moon for dinner. I’ve long admired your reputations but never had the chance to et in person, so I shalessly tagged along."

Chiyoda Shinnai said lazily, "Boss Hong, you’re a prominent figure at the frontier too. So, teaming up with the Ashen Gang to trap , and dare not admit it?"

Hong Chenle laughed heartily and solemnly cupped his fists, "Then I’ll be frank with everyone, today’s gathering was indeed organized by Mr. Abraham at my request."

"Mainly because Crow’s Nest previously had so unpleasant dealings with the rcenary Realm. If I directly sent an invitation, I feared you might not co, so I had to ask soone to send it on my behalf."

Lucifer scoffed, "Why would we refuse to co? The main issue is this kid."

He gestured at Su Mo with his chin, "Your Crow’s Nest rubbish with Edge was a storm in the city. I bet May Coin that the guy nad Su will kill you tonight."

"Captain Lucifer is joking. How could Director Su be such a brute?" Hong Chenle proactively approached Su Mo, nodding with refined manners.

Then he reached out his hand and smiled, "Nice to et you, Director Su. I never had the chance to visit earlier, but I’ve always admired you."

Su Mo looked at the extended hand, not taking it, rely smiling faintly, "Boss Hong, isn’t this too hypocritical?"

"Before I was famous, your Crow’s Nest tricked into the Dragon Gate Restaurant to record a career-damning video, fortunately, I cleverly escaped."

"Later during the Xinghai Cinema hostage incident, I took down Muto Dongying, and you sent Simon into town to assassinate , wanting dead."

"I see from top to bottom, I’m the most hated person in your Crow’s Nest. Now you want to shake hands with ? Doesn’t that feel fake?"

Hong Chenle’s smile didn’t falter, gently saying, "Director Su, what you ntioned was all in the past; each generation has its thods."

"The previous Crow’s Nest indeed hated you, but that was under Hong Quansheng’s managent."

"Now Hong Quansheng is long dead, and Crow’s Nest is under my rule. I’m different, I firmly believe in harmony."

Lucifer snickered sarcastically, "Nice words, but there might be a bunch of guys outside just waiting for the guy nad Su to let down his guard so they can turn him into minced at."

Hong Chenle’s expression remained unchanged, as if wearing a mask of a smile.

Suddenly, he perford a surprising action.

He reached toward his waist and grasped the sheathed long knife.

At that mont, the atmosphere beca delicate.

The Park Brothers, Xuan Hui, Chiyoda Shinnai, watched the scene from the side.

Lucifer crossed his legs with interest and whistled to stir more trouble.

Shangguan Li activated his chanical eye to lock onto Hong Chenle, wary of any sudden attack on Su Mo.

"Swish."

Hong Chenle slowly drew the long knife, not aid at Su Mo but holding it horizontally, "Director Su, I co this ti with sincerity to reconcile."

"Inside and outside the building, it’s only people from the Ashen Gang. I didn’t even bring a bodyguard; I ca alone to see you."

He held the long knife with both hands, placing it on the table before Su Mo, smiling brightly, "Aside from , if you see another person from Crow’s Nest nearby tonight, you can use this knife to cut off my head."

Having said that, his smile intensified, extending his hand again, "How about we make peace?"

At that mont, the atmosphere grew even more delicate.

Lucifer looked at Su Mo, sarcastically, "Hey, do you buy this crap? Rember how Crow’s Nest ssed with you before? If you’re a man, stab him."

Shangguan Li glared at Lucifer, signaling him to hush, then patted Su Mo’s shoulder, whispering, "Just believe him, it won’t hurt."

Su Mo and Hong Chenle locked eyes.

Monts later, he slowly raised his hand and took hold of Hong Chenle’s hand.

Hong Chenle promptly laughed heartily, his other hand joining the grasp, "See, I told you, Director Su is definitely an open-minded person."

Abraham stroked his beard, smiling kindly, "Good, good, past things are past, the New Year is coming, things should be harmonious."

Lucifer, having missed out on a good show, found it dull, clicking disdainfully.

Su Mo suddenly reached out to Lucifer, saying, "Pay up."

Lucifer asked puzzled, "Pay what?"

Su Mo: "You just said, betting May Coin that I’d kill Boss Hong. Now you lost, won’t admit?"

Lucifer’s face twitched, "You really want that?... "

Su Mo opened his phone’s paynt code, raised an eyebrow at him.

Lucifer, speechless, could only scan the code and transfer May Coin to Su Mo.

Just after receiving the money, Su Mo felt his phone vibrate; a notification popped up.

It was from Qi Ling.

Su Mo opened the ssage, his pupils slightly widened, but quickly returned to normal, unnoticed by anyone.

After greetings, Abraham and Hong Chenle took their seats.

This ti, under the Ashen Gang’s invitation, Abraham, naturally seated at the head, clapped his hands at the door, "Thanks for waiting, let’s serve the food."

Dishes of gourt delicacies were brought out, various precious ingredients contrasting sharply with this dilapidated frontier.

It was hard to imagine such a feast being served in a place where common folk struggle with hunger, resorting to catching mice.
