Will do?
"Why?" Brother Cheng asked, puzzled.
Gu Jin’an smiled at him and said aningfully, "Because Brother won’t lose."
Brother Cheng furrowed his little brows, giving his elder brother a sideways glance, and asked, "Did Brother plan a backup?"
Gu Jin’an didn’t deny it but nodded, "That’s right."
Brother Cheng was furious and exclaid, "But Brother still bet with last night!"
If he lost the bet, his nightly coursework would triple! Triple, with no ti to sleep.
Gu Jin’an smiled warmly like a spring breeze, "You didn’t say tactics weren’t allowed, just bet on the result, can’t bla ."
Brother Cheng gritted his teeth, feeling the deep-seated malice from his brother, "Brother is so bad, I don’t..."
He didn’t dare to say the words "won’t bet" because his brother hated renegades, saying breaking promises is a matter of integrity, and such people should not be trusted.
Brother Cheng had no choice but to temporarily set aside the matter he might lose and instead asked, "What’s Brother’s backup plan? How can Lv Bai be brought back?"
Brother Yao is quite smart too; he said what needed to be said, yet Lv Bai still ran away in disgrace. Even if Brother is smarter, what way could he have to bring Lv Bai back?
"Could it really be as Second Sister said, talk if possible, fight if not, and a good beating would solve it?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Jin’an unexpectedly nodded, "Mm, you got it right."
Indeed, a good beating, or maybe two.
"Huh?" Brother Cheng was dumbfounded, "Really gonna use fists?"
Gu Jin’an looked at him, raised a hand to close his open mouth, "Otherwise? I’m not Brother Yao, no bond with Lv Bai since childhood. Why waste words when fists suffice?"
Brother Cheng: "..."
Mm, Brother speaks wisely.
...
Lv Bai ran off crying, but didn’t get far before a group dragged him into an alley, with a thud thrown against the wall.
Lv Bai was terrified, pointing at You An who tossed him aside, "Who are you? Daring to commit violence in broad daylight, do you know who I am?"
Lv Bai tried to talk reason with You An using flowery language, but You An was no one to listen to his nonsense.
He didn’t listen at all, directly lifting Lv Bai like a chick and saying, "Robbery, hand over Silver, at least ten taels, less than ten and you’ll be chopped up to feed dogs."
Robbery, demanding ten taels at once? Does he look like soone who would have ten taels of Silver!
Lv Bai was shocked, in broad daylight in Prefecture city, this, this: "Is there law and order here?"
With a thud, You An punched Lv Bai, "Been reading books till you’re stupid, what robber fears the law?"
Lv Bai: "..."
Unexpectedly, that makes sense.
But: "I am the newly minted Master Tongsheng, if you dare rob , I’ll report you to the governnt office!"
You An laughed, pointing to his face only showing eyes under his mask, "Go report, see if the governnt office can catch . Besides, you’re a laughingstock for losing a public bet, think you’re popular? If you dare report, believe it or not, Lord Magistrate could strip you of your position? Newly minted Master Tongsheng, what sin would be committed to get robbed, stripped naked and beaten, such a Master Tongsheng, Lord Magistrate would swiftly boot him out, lest Linhe Prefecture be embarrassed by He’an Prefecture."
Stripped naked!
Lv Bai was shocked, voice trembling, "You you you plan to strip , you boorish ruffians, no rules for robbery! Robbery only ever robs wealth and lust, never heard of stripping."
Upon hearing this, You An looked at Lv Bai, feeling toothache, simply threatening him, "Got money or not? No money we rob lust, robbing lust ans stripping clothes."
He even chuckled wickedly a few tis, frightening Lv Bai to the point where his eyes rolled back, almost fainting.
"Rob, rob lust?" Lv Bai was nearly going mad and shouted, "I’m a man, damn it!"
You An glanced at him, "Though a man, we’ve been on the mountain over a year, even seeing a cow looks graceful to us, you’re prettier than a cow, we can barely rob."
Barely rob?
He really was about to be robbed of lust!
Lv Bai was nearly insane, wanting to cry for help but was gagged by You An.
You Er’an looked over and said, "Brother, got money or not? No money we rob lust, don’t leave empty-handed."
Lv Bai heard this, seeing they were serious, burst into tears, desperately prying at You An’s hand on his mouth, "rcy, rcy heroes, although I have no money, if heroes spare , I’ll earn money for you!"
Don’t rob lust, don’t rob lust, he’s really not worth it; if you want to rob lust, he’ll give them Silver to go to a brothel for girls.
You An coldly sneered, "You’re one to welch on losing bets publicly, why should we trust you?"
Welching on a lost bet publicly?
Lv Bai froze, shocked, "You, you know ?"
YouAn: "Your bet with Gu Jin’an is known throughout the whole Prefecture city, how could we not know you?"
You Er’an urged again, "Boss, get moving, after you’re done there’s and Old San, tis tight."
Lv Bai was nearly peeing himself, rushing, "Please heroes, believe , I absolutely won’t welch, said I’d earn Silver for you and I’ll earn it."
"Peh, Brother don’t believe him, he thinks we are like Gu Jin’an, don’t be fooled, proceed quickly, secure benefits first." You Er’an felt weary, why did they have to do things like this? Molest a man, they’d puke.
But it was the mistress’s order, she said they must obey her, defiance ans being thrown into Ghost Howl Gully to fight tigers.
Ghost Howl Gully had a tiger’s den, with two fierce tigers, battling them was life-threatening.
You An was indifferent to this, pulling Lv Bai with one hand, starting to undo his belt with the other, almost scaring Lv Bai to death, hastily crying, "Heroes, heroes, I was wrong, how can I convince you? Please, don’t, otherwise I won’t live, wuwu..."
Such a thing happening to a grown man, how could he survive?
You An also felt like throwing up, enduring the nausea said, "Our Hu Wang Gang brothers value honor, so show us you’re trustworthy first, then earn ten taels of Silver within five days for us, and this will pass."
He sneered again, "Don’t even think about skipping out, thinking escaping today ans we won’t find you. Let tell you, Hu Wang Gang is spread across Jianghuai Prefectures, even if you flee today we’ll find your ho in Yujiang County and deal with you!"
To complete the task, they had to invent a Hu Wang Gang, this... Young Master clearly listened to too many tales.
Lv Bai was nodding like garlic cloves, "Yes yes yes, I understand, dare not welch."
As long as it preserves his honor, he’ll do anything.
You An was satisfied, but...
Bang bang bang!
You An’s fist unexpectedly smashed into Lv Bai’s face, bruising his pale face into a swollen ss.
