"Find another place?"
Lin Qingyuan's face instantly clouded over. "Xiongzi, it's this late, and you're telling to find another place?"
"You shouldn't have agreed if you couldn't do it. Now you're telling us to find another place? Is there even enough ti?" Feng Lulu was also fuming, crossing her arms in frustration.
Lin Liping also asked, "Brother Xiong, Elder Xiong really didn't call my father. Could there have been so mistake?"
Xiongzi looked rather embarrassed, spreading his hands and gesturing at his surroundings.
Because his restaurant was in a small, converted residence, Fragrant Food Pavilion only had nine private rooms when it first opened—one large and eight small.
They were nad after the great mountains and rivers of the country.
Beyond those, there was a main dining hall converted from the courtyard, which could hold six square tables. It was also completely full.
"Elder Lin, I'm truly sorry. Just a few minutes ago, Wind Leopard from the underground brought so important guests over. We can't afford to offend them." Xiongzi was full of apology as he offered a cigarette.
Lin Qingyuan waved his hand, swatting away the offered cigarette. His expression grew darker.
"Wind Leopard, Feng Xifan?"
Just then, Jiang Xinghai stepped forward. "You can't afford to offend him, but I can. Tell him to co out."
Not long ago, Lin Liping had been kidnapped and Feng Lulu had been slapped, all at the hands of Wild Wolf, the third-in-command of the underground.
That sa night, he had destroyed Wild Wolf's lair.
As for Mountain Opening Tiger and Wind Leopard, the first and second-in-command of the underground, he had been planning to go and clean them out.
He never imagined that tonight, this second-in-command, Wind Leopard, would walk right into his line of fire.
"Jiang, I've heard of this Wind Leopard. He might be a Master..." Lin Qingyuan said, pulling Jiang Xinghai aside.
Jiang Xinghai nodded. "Don't worry, Elder Lin. Even if he were a Grandmaster, I could still make him die filled with regret right here and now."
'Die filled with regret right here and now?'
Hearing this, everyone sucked in a sharp breath.
Wind Leopard!
The second-in-command of the underground!
Lin Liping and Feng Lulu were the first to react, exchanging a look.
They had both suffered at the hands of the third-in-command, Wild Wolf, and it was Jiang Xinghai who had stepped in to settle the matter.
"Jiang, let it go." It wasn't that Lin Qingyuan didn't believe in Jiang Xinghai.
Rather, it was his granddaughter Feng Lulu's birthday, and there was no need for any bloodshed.
Besides, the other party was from the underground; there was no need to escalate the conflict.
"That's right, young man. Don't be rash. It's not worth the risk," Xiongzi, the owner of Fragrant Food Pavilion, also chid in.
Jiang Xinghai pushed him aside and looked at Lin Qingyuan. "Elder Lin, I originally planned to give Lulu a special birthday present today, but I was delayed by an unexpected incident. I already feel bad about that. I can't let Lulu not even have a place to hold her birthday dinner, can I?"
With that, he glanced at Feng Lulu, then strode forward and pushed open the door to the private room nad "Taishan."
This was the largest private room in Fragrant Food Pavilion, capable of seating fifteen people.
However, only a re three people were inside—one man and two won.
And the lone middle-aged man had a leopard head tattooed on his forehead. This was, naturally, Wind Leopard.
"Kid, are you a waiter?"
With an exotic beauty in each arm, Wind Leopard shot Jiang Xinghai an extrely arrogant glance and snorted, "Barging in without knocking. You got a death wish?"
His voice was soft, but it carried a vicious undertone.
"Want dead? Are you worthy?"
Jiang Xinghai stepped inside, closing the door behind him with a backhand motion.
"Kid, you're all talk. Don't you know who I am?!"
Still holding the two beauties in his arms, Wind Leopard finally looked up at Jiang Xinghai. "I'm..." he began, his voice dripping with killing intent.
SLAP!
Wind Leopard had intended to announce his na and humiliate Jiang Xinghai, but before he could even finish his sentence, a resounding slap landed on his face.
CRASH!
Wind Leopard never expected Jiang Xinghai to be so powerful. He, along with the two exotic beauties beside him, was sent tumbling to the floor.
"Aren't you Wind Leopard? You stole our private room. Who else would I hit but you?"
Jiang Xinghai's hand shot out, grabbing Wind Leopard by the throat and lifting him up. He then glanced at the two won, whose faces had gone pale with fright. "If you don't want to die, stay quiet."
"Let's talk this over! Who the hell are you?"
As a First-Order Master, Wind Leopard was naturally unwilling to be captured so easily. He tried to distract Jiang Xinghai while preparing to strike back.
BAM!
But in the next instant, Jiang Xinghai threw a punch.
Wind Leopard's head took a heavy blow. The resentnt in his eyes had yet to fade before he crumpled to the ground.
THUD!
Then, Jiang Xinghai kicked Wind Leopard into the corner of the room.
It all happened so fast that the two won on the floor were completely dumbfounded.
In Jizhou, Wind Leopard was a famous and feared figure.
Yet he'd been taken down in the blink of an eye.
"Big brother! Don't misunderstand! We're from South Korea. We just got here tonight and have nothing to do with him."
"That's right, we can serve you unconditionally. Please, don't do anything rash..."
The two won, who claid to be from South Korea, spoke in less-than-fluent Mandarin as they knelt before Jiang Xinghai almost in unison.
