"King Yanluo?" Upon hearing these three words, Ye Xiao couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "Then do you know what my name is?"
"What's your name?" Brother Jiang immediately couldn't resist asking upon hearing Ye Xiao's words.
"Haha, listen up, I'm the one who specializes in beating up King Yanluo, and my name is Sun Wukong!" Ye Xiao laughed heartily as he spoke.
Brother Jiang was stunned upon hearing this, then he got angry.
Clearly, Ye Xiao was just toying with him.
But before Brother Jiang could make a sound, Ye Xiao sneered and said, "So, even King Yanluo has to call me brother or grandpa when he sees me."
"Damn it, you dare insult King Yanluo!" Brother Jiang became furious upon hearing Ye Xiao's words and said, "I see you have a death wish, just for that statement, I'm going to deal with you today and throw you into the Guard Bureau."
This was indeed a rather arrogant statement. After all, for an underworld force to dare claim it could throw someone into the Guard Bureau, what brazen words indeed.
"What are you standing there for?" Brother Jiang looked at his men and said, "Take him down for me."
"Hold on a minute!" Ye Xiao looked at Brother Jiang and said, "Let me finish my last sentence, Brother Jiang!"
This was Ye Xiao's first time addressing the man in front of him as Brother Jiang.
Brother Jiang looked at Ye Xiao and sneered, "Why? Want to beg for mercy now? Let me tell you, don't even think about it. Today I'm going to make sure you know the consequences of offending King Yanluo."
"Did King Yanluo get you to sell this wine?" Ye Xiao looked at Brother Jiang and said.
"There's absolutely nothing wrong with my wine. If you dare spread nonsense again, I'll cut out your tongue." Brother Jiang was angry at this moment.
"I just want to know, did you sell it behind King Yanluo's back, or are you selling it yourself?" Ye Xiao's expression became increasingly serious as he looked at Brother Jiang.
"Hmph, this... this is King Yanluo's wine." Brother Jiang felt a bit uneasy, not sure why, but looking at Ye Xiao's cold face made him feel uncomfortable, though he couldn't quite put his finger on why.
"You said it yourself." Ye Xiao looked at Brother Jiang with a sneer, and then took out a phone from his clothes.
"What do you mean?"
"I know a King Yanluo; I wonder if he's the same one you're talking about. Since this wine is his, wouldn't it be better if I gave the money directly to him?" Ye Xiao said.
"You know King Yanluo?" Brother Jiang was skeptical at first upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, then burst into laughter as he really couldn't see what kind of background this young man could possibly have. He didn't at all believe that Ye Xiao would have anything to do with the rapidly rising King Yanluo, and shouted at Ye Xiao, "Alright, I'd love to see how you make this call. Now I'm giving you three options: first, hand over the money obediently, second, call King Yanluo, or third, call the Guard Bureau. It's fine if you do any of these."
At this moment, Brother Jiang thought Ye Xiao was just a young man trying to fool him. Who was King Yanluo? Even Brother Jiang hadn't met him, only knew that he was now the top figure in Jinling District. Although he had risen to power in less than a month, it was indeed King Yanluo who called the shots in Jinling District's underworld.
Ye Xiao looked at Brother Jiang, his eyes full of pity.
"Ye Xiao, do you really know that King Yanluo?" Li Sitong looked at Ye Xiao, her voice full of concern.
Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "I hope the person I know isn't the one he's talking about."
Brother Jiang was right in front of them, so naturally, he could hear Ye Xiao's words, and immediately said coldly, "You only have one chance to choose. If you choose and can't settle this wine issue, I guarantee you'll regret it for life."
Ye Xiao nodded slightly and said, "You better pray that this call I'm going to make won't cause you any problems."
"Go ahead, I'd really love to see what kind of person like you has the right to call King Yanluo." Brother Jiang laughed heartily and said, "If you can't come up with the money, kneel and kowtow to me now, and maybe I'll let you scram."
"Sitong, will this work?" At this moment, Li Sitong's colleagues quietly asked her.
But now even Li Sitong truly didn't know if it would work; she just hoped it would.
Ye Xiao's phone dialed the number and within five seconds, the call was swiftly connected.
"Brother Xiao!" A young man's voice came from the other end of the line.
Ye Xiao said, "You're doing quite well now; your reputation surprised me a bit."
"Brother Xiao, it's all thanks to you."
Ye Xiao said, "That's pleasant to hear. However, your reputation now truly surprised me, astonishingly big. Is King Yanluo also your nickname?"
The person on the other end of the line was none other than Yan Luo.
Yan Luo wasn't sure what Ye Xiao wanted with this call today, always feeling like there was some underlying meaning in what Ye Xiao was saying, but couldn't figure it out. Hearing Ye Xiao's words, he hurriedly said, "Brother Xiao, this was a nickname given by others. I thought since I'm not on a righteous path, it's good to have a nickname instead of a real name. Brother Xiao, if you think the name doesn't work, I'll change it immediately."
"No need to change it. With your fame, you should get into businesses that don't harm others. Those deceitful businesses would surely tarnish the name of King Yanluo."
Yan Luo felt even more puzzled upon hearing this.
"Boss, I haven't done anything. What's happened exactly?" Yan Luo was utterly confused by what he was hearing.
Ye Xiao's eyes turned to Brother Jiang, whose face was full of curiosity, and said, "I'm currently at the Sky Building. There's a little brother of yours here selling fake Remy Martin, and coincidentally, I was going to foot the bill. Maybe you should have a chat with him?"
Before Yan Luo could speak, Ye Xiao directly handed the phone over to Brother Jiang and said, "The King Yanluo I know, I wonder if he's the one you know. Take the call."
Brother Jiang looked at Ye Xiao, speaking as if it were real, but he still didn't believe that Ye Xiao really knew King Yanluo. The way he spoke to King Yanluo was more like talking to a subordinate. If Ye Xiao had been begging, perhaps Brother Jiang would have believed him. But now, he really didn't believe it; he absolutely couldn't believe that the young man in front, who seemed not older than twenty, could be King Yanluo's boss. How could that be possible? Jiang was already in his thirties, still in the lower ranks. How could this be?
A strong sense of pride made Brother Jiang absolutely refuse to believe Ye Xiao's words. Of course, a large part of the reason was that he simply didn't want to believe it.
