So Li Chonglou was not in a hurry for him, as long as he had the perseverance to stick to it, he believed that Sanyang could still succeed.
If nothing else, at least ordinary masters could not defeat him!
After a few casual chats, Sanyang suddenly told him some news.
"By the way, Brother Li, Fourth Master wants to see you. Sister said it might be about the management position."
Because of what had happened before, his deputy supervisor position had long been taken by someone else. Previously, Li Meixia had told him to find Third Master to explain clearly.
However, Li Chonglou's plan had changed. Due to the curse, with his diminished strength, he was no longer keen on managing these matters. Firstly, this line of work easily led to encounters with powerful enemies, and secondly, he had already found another path.
Therefore, Li Chonglou only nodded indifferently to Sanyang's words and replied, "I know. We'll talk about this later."
After that, Li Chonglou returned to his room. However, before he could even lie down, his phone suddenly rang with an unknown number.
The number didn't look like a spam call, so Li Chonglou directly answered it.
"Save me!"
Li Chonglou immediately sat up straight, his brows furrowed. It was Haiyan, and her voice was extremely panicked and tearful.
"What's going on? What happened?"
Li Chonglou quickly asked, but Haiyan didn't answer him. Instead, she quickly reported an address, and then the call was hung up. When he tried to call back, it indicated that the number was switched off.
Sigh.
Li Chonglou sighed and finally decided to leave his residence.
The location Haiyan reported was the name of a bar. When he arrived, it was already close to closing time, and many people were walking out one after another.
Smelling the strong scent of alcohol, Li Chonglou's brows furrowed. He had never liked such places, but as he was about to enter, he was stopped by the security guard.
"Sir, we're about to close."
"I'm here to find a friend."
The security guard looked at him suspiciously before letting him pass. But after Li Chonglou entered, the security guard suddenly picked up his pager.
"Young Master, there's a man inside looking for a friend. I wonder if it's him."
Li Chonglou entered the bar but couldn't see Haiyan. At this moment, a man walked directly towards him.
"Are you Haiyan's friend?"
Li Chonglou looked at him doubtfully and nodded.
"Then follow me."
A minute later, in a private room, Li Chonglou finally saw Haiyan, but her situation seemed a bit dire.
At this moment, Haiyan was being held by the hair and kneeling on the ground by a man. Although his face couldn't be seen, it could be seen from her arms that she was clearly injured.
"Are you the rich friend this b*tch mentioned?"
Gao Feng looked Li Chonglou up and down with suspicion, but found no trace of him appearing to be a wealthy person.
"Let her go first."
Li Chonglou said with a frown. The other party was so rough with a woman; even though his relationship with Haiyan wasn't deep, he couldn't stand it.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, one of Gao Feng's subordinates sneered, "Want to let her go? It's simple. Pay back the thirty thousand she owes, and our Young Master will release her immediately."
As soon as the figure of thirty thousand was mentioned, Haiyan, who had been motionless, suddenly struggled and shouted with a slightly hoarse voice, "Young Master, wasn't it fifteen thousand? I only owe you fifteen thousand!"
*Slap!*
Gao Feng suddenly slapped Haiyan heavily, leaving five clear finger marks on her face.
Li Chonglou's eyes immediately turned cold.
However, Gao Feng sneered, "B*tch, can't you count? You borrowed fifteen thousand, but it's been several months now? I'm only counting thirty thousand because you have some looks!"
A subordinate next to him chimed in, "Thank our Young Master quickly!"
Haiyan was already stunned by the blow, and for a moment, she could only shed tears, her eyes filled with despair.
Thirty thousand. She had originally planned to ask Li Chonglou to help her delay the payment by a thousand or two, but she didn't expect the other party to not only double her debt but also demand immediate settlement!
This was simply impossible!
What made her even more despairing was yet to come. Perhaps fearing that Li Chonglou wouldn't agree, Gao Feng continued after his subordinate spoke.
"Thirty thousand, not a penny less! If you can't produce it tonight, hehe."
As he spoke the last words, a lewd smile suddenly appeared on his face. His subordinates understood immediately and quickly chimed in.
"If you can't produce it, tonight you'll get to experience what is called group fighting!"
The seven or eight men in the private room all smiled lewdly.
"I've wanted this girl for a long time! Since Young Master has opened the way, I'll show you my skills tonight!"
"With that thing you have, which even a magnifying glass can't find, forget it. But it seems like this girl hasn't even been touched by Young Master yet? If anyone's going to have her, it'll be Young Master first."
"Right, right. Anyway, I don't mind queuing."
The men, each speaking their minds, seemed to have already dealt with Haiyan on the spot, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably.
If the previous Li Chonglou had merely intended to see what was happening, then by now, he had decided to intervene.
It would be a disservice to himself to not act against such scum who disregarded the law!
Li Chonglou walked directly towards Gao Feng with a somber expression.
"Did I tell you to come over? Stand there!"
Gao Feng immediately pointed at Li Chonglou and yelled loudly, but Li Chonglou did not stop. At this moment, he finally realized something was wrong and quickly signaled his subordinate.
"I think you're tired of living, daring to disobey Young Master's words!"
His subordinate immediately grabbed an empty wine bottle from the table, a fierce look on his face, and quickly intercepted him.
As soon as he blocked the way, a huge fist landed squarely on his face.
"Ah!"
The subordinate cried out in pain, clutching his nose, and immediately crouched down.
The others finally reacted, cursing and grabbing weapons from around them, rushing forward.
However, although Li Chonglou's strength was less than ten percent of its former self, it was more than enough to deal with these thugs. In less than a minute, all of Gao Feng's subordinates were lying on the ground.
Gao Feng's expression changed drastically. He immediately let go of Haiyan and pulled a pistol from his waist. Li Chonglou narrowed his eyes and quickly lunged forward, grasping his hand before he could fire.
"Damn it, do you know who I am!"
Seeing that the pistol had been taken away by Li Chonglou, Gao Feng's face still showed no fear, and he continued to threaten.
