Super Soldier

Chapter 222 Yu Family’s Descendent

Xiao Bing had never seen through Miyamoto Shinji’s capacity. But his intuition told him that Miyamoto Shinji might not be Lord Long’s equal. However, he found this man unfathomable when he took a closer look. That was why it was not easy to gauge him.

Xiao Bing nodded his head and said, “If Mr. Miyamoto can handle Lord Long, then our chance of winning can be increased to 40% or even 50%.”

Xiao Bing stood up and smiled, “I haven’t been back for days and I assume that Ye Zi must be worried. Master Hou, just call me if you need my service. But I suggest you increase your men and be more vigilant. From what I know of Lord Long, he’s never been a patient man. This loss is significant to him. I’m sure he will strike back like a deranged man.”

Master Hou nodded and was about to speak when the phone rang. He walked to it and answered it. His demeanour turned respectful when he heard the voice on the other end. His features first showed surprise, followed by a tad of complexity, then mirth. Then he hanged up turned to Xiao Bing and Mu Tingchuan with glittering eyes.

They could tell that Master Hou had good news to announce but wondered what it could be because Master Hou had always been a person who was good at hiding his true feelings.

Xiao Bing grinned and said, “Master Hou, I assume it’s some good news.”

“Good news for all of us. Someone from the provincial government called me and warned me that the government has recently started a campaign of eliminating underground gangs. They asked me to stop all work at hand immediately or none of them will be able to ensure my safety.”

Mu Tingchuan grinned and said, “Master Hou, why did you sound so happy… I get it…”

Mu Tingchuan took a deep breath and clapped his hands, “It’s good news indeed. They said they will eliminate this country’s underground forces, not this province’s? It means that every nook and cranny of this country will be affected. If that’s the case, I’m sure that the Long Family will think twice before they decide to do anything. After all, the government can crush him and his family with ease, however mighty he is. So we’ll have opportunity to take a breather.”

“Indeed.” Master Hou sighed, “I was worrying about how to deal with Lord Long’s crazy vengeance. I didn’t expect the government to happen to do me such a favor. Looks like the gods are on our side.”

Xiao Bing could not help sighing either. Though currently Lord Long seemed unstoppable, there was still a small chance for Master Hou to win. Because it seemed that the god truly favored him more. Now Jiang Zihou had united the underground world in Hei Province except for City H’s. He had not consolidated what he had just conquered yet. If he decided to fight Lord Long now, the chances for his to win would be rather small. But if given time, he would make his property truly his because his influence in the Hei Province was quite considerable.

But Xiao Bing thought that maybe they could do more than that. The longer he contemplated, the more reasonable he found it was. He spoke directly, “Master Hou, indeed it is a perfect opportunity. But won’t it be a pity if we just use it to recover our strength?”

Jiang Zihou and Mu Tingchuan both cast him a glance of confusion. Xiao Bing smiled and said,” “Lord Long is an arrogant and arbitrary man. Men like him consider reputation the most important. Why don’t we take advantage of it? Let him take the rest while we are harvesting the fruit he has been planting for us…”

Jiang Zihou suddenly realized. “We should work out a plan for this, ” he said hurriedly.

Xiao Bing grinned, “You can think about it first. I’d better go home now. I promised to have dinner with my girlfriend.”

“The young miss of the Ye family…” Jiang Zihou smiled, “You are a lucky guy. Ye Xiaoxi is the most beautiful and wealthiest woman in Jiang City. Go then. I’ll discuss it with Tingchuan first and with you later.”

After Xiao Bing took his leave, Jiang Zihou exchanged looks with Mu Tingchuan. “This Xiao Bing is a powerful master who knows how to win people’s hearts. However, the scariest part is that he can use whatever can be used to change the situation. Indeed he’s no ordinary man,” Jiang Zihou sighed.

Mu Tingchuan said, “I have always thought the same. That’s why I tried to convince you… But like you said, we should not deal with the internal enemy at this urgent time. The Long family is quite a powerful house. The chances for us to defeat them is still nearly none even if we have Xiao Bing’s help.”

Jiang Zihou grinned, “You’ve misunderstood me. Though Xiao Bing is very young and he’s not as mighty as Lord Long, he’s much more unfathomable.”

Mu Tingchuan was nonplussed, “If that’s case, isn’t he a threat to us?”

“Indeed he’s a threat…But I’ve always got this feeling that he doesn’t belong to the underground world. He belongs to a realm that is beyond our wildest imagination. Let’s just stopping talking about him. Our priority at the moment is to come up with a plan that can bring Lord Long another great loss.”

Then the two began discussing the details.

Xiao Bing had already come up with a plan, but didn’t feel it wise to let the others know. It was Xiao Bing’s wisdom and bravery that enabled him to alienate Zhuge Jiangnan and Lord Long, to kill the Femme Fatale and Zhangyu. It was enough for Master Hou to be wary of him.

Mu Tingchuan was a sly man and Master Hou was even more so. It was just that they were involved in this game. But Xiao Bing was different. He was a player who also observed others playing. That was why he could think deeper and further.

Xiao Bing left Master Hou’s mansion and drove to the Yezi’s house. On the way there, he saw a girl walking on the street. From the back, she looked quite familiar. Then he realized it was Liu Kexin, his fake girlfriend.

A smile touched Xiao Bing’s lips. Liu Kexin was a pure-hearted girl. He could put aside all his vigilance and defense when he was with her. So Xiao Bing actually liked this girl very much.

Xiao Bing was about to pull over when he saw a black BMW stop beside Liu Kexin. Then out came a young man in pink checked shirt holding a bunch of flowers.

Xiao Bing pulled over and looked out the window. He could tell that the young man was coming for Liu Kexin. Actually it had nothing to do with him because after all he was merely her fake boyfriend. But he still felt uncomfortable seeing a guy pursuing Liu Kexin.

Xiao Bing wound the window down to listen to what they’ll be saying.

Liu Kexin sounded very surprised to see the young man. He stopped in front of her and seemed to be burning with ardor, wearing a smile on his face. Even at this distance, Xiao Bing could tell that he was quite handsome and was probably two or three years older than the girl.

Liu Kexin was bewildered by the young man’s sudden appearance. He held the flowers out to her gently and smiled, “Kexin, these flowers are for you. Please don’t refuse. But your beauty truly deserves more than these.”

“Damn. If they are not worthy of her beauty, why give them to her then?” Xiao Bing thought to himself.

Liu Kexin took two steps back when she saw the flowers, her face hot. “No. I can’t take them… I already have a boyfriend.”

The young man smiled, “Kexin, you don’t need to lie to me now. If you truly have a boyfriend, why haven’t you asked him out so we could meet? Why didn’t he answer your calls? It must be because you don’t want to marry me that you got Uncle Liu to come up with such an excuse.”

Liu Kexin said anxiously, “I really do have a boyfriend. His name is Xiao Bing. He is the boss of a noodle house.”

The young man’s name was Yu Miao. His father was Yu Wenhua, a good friend of Liu Kexin’s father after his exile to the countryside. They once reached an agreement that if both families had a daughter each, their children would be sisters and if they both had a son, the boys would be brothers. If one had a daughter and the other a son, their children would marry.

Later, by pulling some strings, Yu Wenhua returned to the city helped Liu Kexin’s parents do the same. That was a big favor to her family. But it was an era of chaos and the two families gradually lost touch. It was not until Liu Kexin’s father went to the provincial capital that he met Yu Wenhua. He had not expected Yu Wenhua’s status to be so high. And more importantly, Y u Wenhua had not forgotten about their agreement and even brought it up. That was why Liu Kexin’s father was so pressing about the marriage.

The Liu Family already gave their blessings to Xiao Bing and Liu Kexin’s relationship and declined her marriage with Yu Miao. But Yu Miao was upset when he heard it and went to her city without his father knowledge. He didn’t mean to marry this girl and he didn’t like arranged marriages either. It was just that he was the one who had done the rejecting all along and he had never expected to one day be rejected himself.

However, Yu Miao was struck by Liu Kexin at first sight. The girls he had been with were either gold-diggers or looked gracious outwardly but were inwardly devious.

Liu Kexin was the first pure and innocent girl he had ever met.

Yu Miao instantly felt a strong desire to marry this girl.

Liu Kexin wanted to use Xiao Bing as an excuse. But Xiao Bing was out of Hei Province these days and his phone was switched off so she couldn’t contact him. That’s why Yu Miao was certain that Xiao Bing was just her excuse to not marry him.

Holding the flowers, Yumiao said sincerely, “Kexin, I know that we barely know each other. But how about this? Let’s go find a coffee shop and have a talk. How does it sound to you?”
