I'm A Baller

Chapter 466: Downward Spiral

He Meng rushed up to the fifth floor in a hurry. The first thing she saw was a scene that made her have an emotional breakdown.

Wang Yan’s back was propped against the wall. His right hand was in his pocket, and his left hand was around her sister.

Meanwhile, He Xiaolu seemed to have drunk some bewitching soup. She clung tightly to Wang Yan and buried her head in the boy’s arms.

Bastard!

Let go of my sister!

“What’s going on?”

Before she could rush over, anxious voices could be heard from behind her.

Gu Jiashu, Yu Qiuli, and the group of boys who were following behind were even more dumbfounded. They were completely in awe of Wang Yan now.

Brother, you realized that He Meng wasn’t easy to deal with, so you immediately changed your target and messed with her sister?!

She’s still a child!

Slurp…

Nobody knew who the b**tard who swallowed his saliva was, but someone did.

Wang did not think too much about it. When he saw He Meng, he gave a concise and comprehensive account of what happened.

“Xiaolu was in a bad mood, so she downed a bottle of beer herself. She took the wrong path, went up to the fifth floor, and was almost dragged into the room by that damn fatty to drink with him. When I was on my phone, I saw her, so I followed her in time and stopped him. He is inside, you deal with him.”

He Meng rushed over to snatch her sister back and found that the damn child was grinning foolishly.

The little fairy was gone, now she was a little drunk cat.

“Xiaolu, Xiaolu?! How are you? Are you hurt? Where did that person hurt you?”

He Meng really had nothing to say to her sister, and her anxiety was not fake at all.

He Xiaolu was half drunk and did not respond to other questions. However, she suddenly pursed her lips and whined pitifully, “My arm hurts…”

He Meng hurriedly pulled open her sleeve and found a bruise.

Her anger immediately flared up.

The manager had already received the news and rushed over from the office, just in time to arrive.

He looked around from a distance and immediately recognized Gu Jiashu. His expression immediately turned bitter.

“Aiyo! Young Master Gu! When did you come? The store did not serve you well, did not serve you well… Tell me the specifics. I will handle it!”

Gu Jiashu’s expression was ruthless as he bared his fangs and brandished his claws. “You’ll handle it my foot! Heck! How dare you touch my classmate’s sister…”

He Meng completely ignored him and handed her sister over to Xiaomi. With a whoosh, she pushed open the door of the private room.

The damn fatty had long been scared awake by Wang Yan. Now, he only had a headache and was discussing with his brothers on how to deal with the aftermath.

“When will Brother Long come over?”

“That kid’s too much to handle. It’s best not to involve Brother Long, right?”

“Brother San, if you can’t wait, just give in. Let’s get out of here first and talk later…”

“I f**king know! Relax, I’ll take care of things myself! I, Fatty San Xing, have been doing this for many years…”

As he was muttering, the door was pushed open again, and a beautiful girl with a murderous aura and a cold mask rushed in.

“Who touched my sister? Come out yourself!”

As soon as he heard the question, well, he knew the real person-in-charge had arrived.

He Meng was not only beautiful, but also had a dignified and inviolable air of nobility. In addition to Wang Yan’s foundation, everyone immediately understood —

She was another young missus.

Oh my god!

They really did themselves well in today…

Fatty San laughed and gave a big bow. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I drank too much just now and thought your sister was from the shop… Well, in short, I was blind. You’re magnanimous, so please accept my apology!”

PA! PA! PA!

As he apologized, he used all his strength to slap himself three times.

He Meng was stunned.

That was it?!

And then what?!

What should I do?!

He Meng, who had rushed in with anger, seriously lacked experience in dealing with such matters. Since the other party had admitted defeat so quickly and decisively, she really didn’t know how to continue.

This group of hooligans aged from the 20s to 35 were all old foxes. Their exaggeration could reach the skies and they became unusually bold after drinking too much. However, once they sobered up, they immediately became as cowardly as old dogs and slippery as loaches.

If it wasn’t because of this, Wang Yan would not have responded in that way just now.

If there were a group of children under the age of 18 in the room, don’t say anything useless. Immediately lock the door and call for security outside.

You still dare to pretend to be a Godfather?

If you make others red-eyed, even a real godfather would be dragged into this as well.

This came from both social experience and a grasp of human nature.

Therefore, even if the young master could handle it, it didn’t mean that He Meng could handle it as well. No matter how strong the strength behind the person was, it would be useless if the person didn’t know how to use it.

After hesitating for a moment, He Meng finally chose a punishment that she thought was more severe.

“Get out here and apologize to my sister!”

“Oh! Okay, Okay!”

Fatty San nodded his head, his oily fat face even showing some joy.

The young master shook his head silently, but he did not step out to criticize him.

He had done all that he could, and the rest was their own business. She could do whatever she wanted. As an outsider, he did not need to force his way into it.

However, Gu Jiashu clearly did not think so.

The damn fatty walked out looking like a lowly mongrel. Gu Jiashu, who was trying to show off to the manager, immediately glared at him and was about to charge forward.

“F**k, so you’re the one who touched my girl? Come, come, come, you f**cking come here!”

How could the manager and the security guard let Gu Jiashu charge forward?

If they fought again, they wouldn’t have to work anymore.

“Hey, Young Master Gu, Young Master Gu, don’t be rash! If you have something to say, let’s talk it over…”

The manager hurriedly pulled the leader back, but in the end, he pressed the gourd and a ladle rose up. Xiao Kai and Wang Yonglei looked at the empty space and rushed up.

Duang, Duang!

One person, one kick each.

Gu Jiashu still felt that the situation wasn’t chaotic enough, so he shouted, “Beat him! Cut that bastard to death! If anything happens, count it on me!”

Before He Meng could react, another two boys rushed up and surrounded the fatty, kicking him viciously.

Wang Yan did not say anything and stood at the periphery, watching coldly.

In fact, the young master did not like the current development. If it was too chaotic, accidents could easily happen. However, he felt that there should not be any major problems, so he simply stood at the side.

The damn fatty was also smart. Ever since he knew that the other side could not be provoked, he stopped harboring any thoughts of resisting.

He squatted on the ground, hugged his head with both hands, and let them hammer him as they wished.

When Wang Yonglei and the others were pulled away by the waiter, there were no more than ten kicks on him, and his body was covered in footprints.

He looked like he was covered in dirt and looked as miserable as could be, but in reality, he wasn’t injured at all.

When he stopped getting beaten, he immediately got up and bowed in a circle.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’ll get lost right now, get lost right now!”

He Meng’s anger had mostly subsided, so she didn’t say anything else.

Gu Jiashu was satisfied with his face, so he wasn’t as hot-tempered as before. In the end, he said, “Hurry up and get lost! Heck, you should count yourself lucky today!”

“Yes, yes, yes, thank you, thank you, I’ll get lost right now!”

Fatty San shrunk his neck and ran back to the room, and the boys were instantly in awe.

“That b**tard!”

“How dare you touch our people when you’re just like that?”

“You’re nothing!”

The insults came one after another, and all of them felt proud.

The young master only felt that it was funny.

So you guys just let them off after dealing with them in such a painless manner?

You guys only saw the cowardice and softness of the damn fatty. Do you know how fierce and overbearing those gangsters are when facing ordinary people?

Small punishment, big commandment. This is the blessing of the wicked.

You guys didn’t even dole out the small punishment properly. What the heck are you guys proud of now?!

Wang Yan was very dissatisfied with the outcome of the treatment, but he had to admire the fatty’s wisdom of survival.

Putting aside the fact that those hooligans loved to get into trouble after excessive drinking, they could really adapt to the situation when in a pinch.

In fact, it wasn’t that they didn’t have a foundation. Wang Yan had heard of Gu Jiao’s Brother Long’s name. He could be considered the number one character in the district.

However, after the damn fatty realized that he hadn’t won just now, he would rather admit defeat than bring out Brother Long, in order to prevent the conflict from escalating and not cause trouble for his big brother. This was quite clever.

The damn fatty was truly a talent from the sect!

Who knew how many beatings he had had to endure in order to gain such experience…

Although he wasn’t satisfied, Wang Yan wasn’t in the mood to find trouble. If nothing happened, he wouldn’t stir up trouble, and if something happened, he wouldn’t be afraid. This was the code of conduct for Wang when he dealt with the underworld.

…

After the damn fatty went back to his room and signaled to them, the group of hooligans who had already packed their things immediately filed out.

One, two, three… six…

Including the damn fatty, a total of seven big men walked out of the room!

One of them was wearing a family heirloom ferret, some wore an ancestral golden chain, and some had Shi Jin tattooed on their necks. The common point was that they did not look like good people in the least.

Gulp!

Wang Yonglei couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and his scalp felt a little numb.

The few boys who were boasting just now subconsciously stepped back a little to make way.

Damn!

What did I do just now?

Everyone finally realized the true comparison of combat strength — If they had really fought, they would probably be hammered into pieces?!

Aiyo, fortunately, Young Master Gu was awesome!

Wang Yonglei, Xiao Kai, and the others looked at each other in relief and fear, feeling that their backs were slightly sweating.

Gu Jiashu was of course, not afraid of the other party’s large number of people. He stood confidently with his hands on his hips. Under the manager’s apologetic smile, he sneered and looked at them. “In the future, you all better be f**cking careful!”

The gangsters gritted their teeth and walked out while holding back their anger. They did not pay attention to Gu Jiashu.

There was always the wrongdoer to blame for something that went wrong. Putting aside the fact that the matter was already settled, even if they weren’t done with the matter, as long as they didn’t try to stand out too much, they wouldn’t be able to find them.

Therefore, each and every one of them was still very angsty, and they didn’t hesitate to look into anyone’s eyes.

Then, just as they walked out of the crowd, they saw Wang Yan standing quietly by the wall.

Fatty three immediately collapsed into his brother’s arms, limping as he struggled to walk forward.

The rest of the hooligans shrunk their heads and bowed as they smiled apologetically at the young master. It was as if they had suddenly changed from a wolf to a husky who worked hard to curry favor with their master.

They were all old foxes. They could always tell who was really awesome and who was a fool.

Gu Jiayu’s bared fangs and brandished claws was not worth being afraid of. With jut a look, one could tell that he had not experienced anything significant.

The young man in front of them was different. His aura was unfathomable, and his eyes were cold and sinister. He was always making people worried.

When the students saw the changes in the gangsters, they were all dumbfounded.

What exactly happened before we came up?!

He Meng finally could not control her expression. She widened her eyes in shock — this was the first time in her life that she had lost her composure in front of outsiders.

Before this scene happened, she had interpreted Xiaolu’s rescue as “Wang Yan stopped Xiaolu in time and told him that Xiao Lu was not a KTV employee. The damn fatty was ashamed and stopped.”

Now, it seemed that… it was not that simple?!

He Meng pursed her lower lip. Those who were familiar with her knew that this was a small action that she would only do when she was truly at a loss.

She suddenly realized that Wang Yan’s mysteriousness had probably exceeded her imagination.

Gu Jiashu frowned, his expression uncertain.

When he was ignored by the hooligans, he did not feel anything. The winner should be magnanimous!

However, when he saw the group of wolves acting coy around Wang Yan, he could not take it anymore.

What was going on with each and every one of them?

Why couldn’t they differentiate between the big and small kings?

Damn retards!

Just as Gu Jiashu started to get a little irritable again, the elevator door in the opposite hall suddenly opened, and four or five big men came down.

The one at the lead was clothed in black. He wore a black sable coat, black pants, and black cloth shoes. His half-sleeved pure black t-shirt was arched high by his big belly, and there was a bulging black pure leather bag under his armpit, the only bright color on his body was the golden Lord Guan pendant hanging around his neck.

In Wang Yan’s eyes, the image of this man was so vulgar that it could drop to the ground. However, in Gu Jiao, it was precisely this image that was the most acceptable.

“What’s going on? San, who hit you?”

The dark leader asked in a low voice with a cold face.

The moment Fatty San saw the dark leader, it was as if he had seen his long-lost father. As he opened his mouth, he choked back tears. “Brother Long…”

However, even though he was crying, he did not dare to say what it was for.

Firstly, it was because he felt embarrassed. Secondly, he really did not want to go against Wang Yan.

He could not tell which of the few little princesses and young masters was the richest. However, he knew very well who was the hardest to provoke.

In the legends of the martial arts world, others always said who-who was fearless in the face of danger and did not change his expression when facing many enemies. However, in the eyes of the Fatty San who had been in the underworld for more than ten years, the ones he counted who could really be fearless in the face of danger did not even amount to his five fingers.

At the very least, Brother Long, who was standing in front of him, could not do it. When blocked by his enemy’s people, he would turn tail and run.

Therefore, it was better not to cause trouble for his big brother…

Fatty San stuttered and refused to say anything. He kept winking and winking at Brother Long. Brother Long immediately understood — what happened today was unreasonable, and the enemy was very tough!

Well done!

Brother Long gave Fatty San a look of praise, but scolded him, “Always causing trouble!”

Then, he raised his head and looked at the group of children in front of him. He wanted to see who was the leader and wanted to smooth things over.

The leader of the gray area only mixed around for formalities’ sake.

It wouldn’t do to not come if his little brother came asking for help. His brothers would be disappointed, and those in the industry would laugh at him.

Losing face was equivalent to weakening strength.

Similarly, since he was here, even if the other party was very tough, he had to smooth things over. Otherwise, it would be as if he was afraid of them.

Just as he was sizing up and thinking about how to broach the issue, a big head suddenly jumped out from the other side.

“What are you looking at?!”

(⊙ˍ⊙)!

Children nowadays did not follow the rules of the underworld at all…

How the f**k was he supposed to answer?!

Brother Long was stunned.

The underling behind him was not the same. He straightened his neck and went forward. “I’m looking at you, what of it?!”

Gu Jiashu wasn’t in the best of mood. Without any hesitation, he picked up his phone and dialed. “Where are you now?”

Oh?

This devilish brat was not stupid. He knew how to incite fear in advance…

Brother Long frowned. “Little brother, whose child are you? Don’t bring unnecessary problems into the house and have family members doing each other in.”

“Who the f**k is your family?”

Gu Jiashu laughed coldly. “Of those who come to my house every year to pay respects, there isn’t a scumbag like you who bullies little girls!”

Although his tone was arrogant, Gu Jiashu was really confident.

Whether it was a guest visiting his house or going out with his father, he had never seen this Brother Long before.

As for the so-called three dragons and two tigers… They were all bulls**t!

There’re more than a dozen people in Gu Jiao that I can’t afford to provoke. I know that you aren’t one of them.

The more Gu Jiashu thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, so he began to spice things up.

“You’re raising a bunch of trash who dare to shout at me. Who do you think you are?”

After being repeatedly slapped in the face by a child, Brother Long finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. He waved his hand and signaled his underlings to go forward.

“Go and chase them back to the private room and block the door! Today, I will make their parents personally come to pick them up!”

The meaning behind his words was to not make a move.

It was clear that Brother Long still had a sense of propriety and was only trying to save face.

The underlings immediately felt elated and turned around to surround them with a sinister smile.

Only Fatty San was a little hesitant. He was hesitating whether he should warn his big brother or not. That silent man propped against the wall was the real deal. He was the most f**king scary.

Just then, Gu Jiashu exploded. “Let’s see which one of you dares to touch me! My father is Gu Xuan!”

Brother Long was stunned for a moment, then he grimaced and grinned. His smile was relaxed and ferocious.

“I was wondering why you have such a big head… Alright, give your dad a call. I have to personally ask Leader Gu how he raised his child!”

Gu Jiashu was instantly stunned. He felt that things shouldn’t have developed this way.

You dare to call my dad Leader Gu, so who on earth are you?!

In the blink of an eye, the situation took a turn for the worse. A group of rookies, who were only university freshmen, finally panicked.
