Chapter 62 Turning Against Each Other
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Lin, I've booked your tickets for tomorrow. You've come all this way to Hong Kong Island, why not spend a few more days enjoying yourselves?"
After booking the tickets, Liu Mochou still wanted to persuade him to stay.
"The clinic has been a bit busy these past few days. I have a few clients who need me to go back to take their pulses and confirm the follow-up prescriptions!" I said, declining the offer.
"Well then, Xiaofeng, you've been saying you wanted to experience Hong Kong's cha chaan teng (Hong Kong-style cafe) culture, right? I'll take you guys to Lan Fong Yuen for afternoon tea later; their pork chop buns are famous!"
Seeing this, Liu Mochou did not try to persuade her to stay.
"OK!"
I didn't refuse.
At 2 PM, I drank the so-called "silk stocking milk tea" and ate a pork chop bun.
It was just so-so, especially the milk tea, which was too sweet for me.
"Are you having trouble adjusting?"
Seeing my expression, Liu Mochou laughed.
"yes!"
I nodded.
"I wasn't used to it when I first arrived!" Liu Mochou said quietly, as if she had just remembered something.
After leaving Lan Fong Yuen, Liu Mochou treated us to some snacks, and then packed some char siu to take home.
On her way back, Liu Mochou's phone rang. She glanced at it and answered it.
A moment later, she put down her phone and said, "Brother Rong is treating us to dinner, let's go now!"
Fatty Lin and I exchanged a glance. What a terrible feast!
The meal was at Brother Rong's house. When I arrived at his villa and saw the bodyguards in black suits guarding the entrance, I had a feeling of watching an old Hong Kong movie.
As expected, both Fei Jie and Zeng Xiaowei were there.
Liu Mochou quickly realized that something was wrong.
She gave Fei Jie and Zeng Xiaowei a look, but they acted as if they hadn't seen her.
We weren't too worried about what Rong Ge was up to. First, Lan Mengxia hadn't given us anything, and second, we didn't believe he would dare to kill us.
It's 2006 now, not 1986, and besides, we have Third Master behind us.
The meal wasn't served in a restaurant, but on the terrace on the third floor of the villa. The food wasn't a fancy meal, but rather barbecue.
Upon reaching the terrace, Liu Mochou's eyes narrowed slightly when she saw Rong Ge grilling the food himself with a fork, surrounded by bodyguards. She then smiled and said, "Rong Ge, it's been so long since I've seen you grilling!"
"Yeah, it's been a long time since I've done a barbecue myself!"
Without even looking up, Rong Ge stared at the sizzling, oily meat skewers grilled over the charcoal fire, pointed to the table, and said, "You guys sit down first!"
Liu Mochou's expression changed as she sat down with Fei Jie and Zeng Xiaowei.
My brother and I didn't think much of it, greeted each other casually, and then sat down.
At this point, my brother and I were no longer worried. We were eager to know how Brother Rong was going to set up this trap.
Soon, Brother Rong handed the barbecue fork to his bodyguard, then personally carried the grilled skewers to the table and said, "Master Feng, Master Lin, come, try my skewers!"
Without hesitation, I picked up a skewer, took a bite, and said, "It tastes good!"
Brother Rong smiled and said, "Master Feng, I haven't offended you during your stay in Hong Kong, have I?"
"What makes you say that, Brother Rong?"
I took another bite of the skewer and asked a question as I chewed.
"Did Feifei offend you?"
Rong didn't answer, but asked another question.
"Xiao Wei didn't offend you, did he?"
Before I could answer, Brother Rong asked again.
"Brother Rong..."
Seeing that things were not going well, Liu Mochou stood up and was about to speak when Rong Ge glared at her and pointed at her, saying, "Shut up!"
Liu Mochou immediately became obedient.
"You lunatic, Brother Rong's behavior is exactly the same as in his movies!" Fatty Lin said, picking up a skewer of meat and taking a bite.
"It really does look like it!"
I nodded and took another bite of meat.
Rong Ge's face twitched twice, and he said, "Good, very good!"
"Brother Rong, just say what you want to say. Don't play these games with us. We've never seen anything like this before, and we're really scared!" Fatty Lin threw the meat skewers he was holding onto the table and said, "Look, I'm so scared my hands are shaking, I can't even hold the skewers properly!"
"hehe!"
Rong Ge laughed in exasperation.
Liu Mochou kept giving us meaningful glances, but we ignored her and pretended not to see her.
Zeng Xiaowei squinted his eyes and mimicked the posture of Maitreya Buddha.
Fat Sister didn't say anything, just kept a gloomy face.
"What did Lan Mengxia give you?"
A moment later, Brother Rong slammed his hand on the table and said.
"They didn't give me anything!" I said calmly.
"I'll ask you one more time, what did Lan Mengxia give you?" Brother Rong stared at me and asked, enunciating each word clearly.
I stared back defiantly, replying slowly and deliberately, "They didn't give me anything!"
"Good, very good!"
Rong Ge laughed again.
"Are you done yet? If you said you didn't take it, you didn't take it. We can't be bothered with your petty nonsense!" Fatty Lin said impatiently.
"Still saying you didn't take it?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Ge's expression changed again.
"I can't eat this meal!"
I shook my head, stood up, and said, "Fatty, let's go!"
Fatty Lin pulled out a chair, stood up, and walked out.
"I'd like to see how you two get out of here without my orders," Rong said coldly.
As he spoke, the two bodyguards near the door pulled on their lower backs and pulled out two batons.
"Brother Rong?"
Seeing this, Liu Mochou spoke again.
She knew very well who was behind us.
"Do you even have the right to speak?"
Rong slapped him across the face.
Liu Mochou grunted and looked at the two of us.
I understand what she means; she simply said she did her best, and this time it's not her fault.
Even if the Third Master blames her afterwards, she will have something to say.
She took that slap on purpose.
"Brother Rong, why don't we ask again? It wouldn't be good if there was a misunderstanding!" Zeng Xiaowei said at this moment.
"Ask?"
Rong sneered, pointed at the two of us, and said, "Do they look like they're capable of having a proper conversation?"
Lin Pangzi and I exchanged a glance. Zeng Xiaowei offered him a way out, and he took it. After all that, he was still afraid of Third Master behind us.
"I'll say it one last time, I didn't take anything!"
I said slowly.
After saying that, I ignored Brother Rong and turned to leave.
"Get out of the way!"
Upon reaching the door, I coldly uttered two words to the two bodyguards blocking the entrance, each holding a baton.
The two bodyguards glanced at Brother Rong, a fierce glint in their eyes, and simultaneously raised their batons to smash down on my shoulder.
"Um?"
Fatty Lin pulled me behind him, but the two bodyguards made a strange sound and froze in place like zombies.
A moment later, they both collapsed to the ground, their hands twitching like chicken claws, and their faces began to turn blue.
I looked at Fatty Lin, thinking he had used his powers, but he shook his head, indicating that he hadn't done it.
"Why do we have to take action?"
Just then, a familiar female voice rang out from behind the wooden folding door, and the girl I had met by chance at the airport walked out gracefully from behind the door.
