Chapter 1237 It Came So Quickly

So fast?

Li Chonglou was somewhat surprised. It had only been about ten seconds from when he released his aura to when the other party appeared; this reaction speed was undeniably swift.

Du Shu's face changed dramatically, and he quickly bowed to the approaching person.

"A misunderstanding, Captain Bai, this is a misunderstanding!"

Bai Xing, with a somber expression, walked between them and stopped. He first glanced at Li Chonglou, his eyes carrying a hint of a warning, before finally looking at Du Shu.

"Young Master Du, this is Fengtian. What is the meaning of your men here!"

He questioned without any politeness, but Du Shu dared not show any disrespect. He quickly explained, "Captain Bai, it's a misunderstanding. We just wanted to invite this newcomer out for a spar. We didn't expect him to attack with his aura."

What a way to twist the facts!

Li Chonglou merely sneered, remaining silent.

Bai Xing was no fool. They said he was a newcomer. At this level, would anyone be so reckless! Even if they were, they wouldn't attack first!

He let out a similar cold snort and issued a direct warning, "If you want to fight, leave Fengtian immediately! Otherwise, you will all obediently retract your auras!"

Without Du Shu even signaling, Xiao Mian and the others immediately withdrew their auras. Only Li Chonglou did not comply.

Bai Xing turned and stared at Li Chonglou, "You still intend to fight?"

"May I ask who you are?"

Li Chonglou asked calmly, but he had no intention of retracting his aura. However, he did draw it back to his side, signaling his unwillingness to attack first.

Bai Xing's brows furrowed deeply, but thinking of the newcomer Du Shu had mentioned, he could only introduce himself in a deep voice, "Bai Xing, Captain of Fengtian's Security."

"I'll say it again. If you still want to fight, leave Fengtian immediately! Otherwise, it will be considered a provocation against Fengtian!"

Li Chonglou said coldly, "I would like to abide by the rules, but I wonder if you, Captain Bai, would be as cautious if you were suddenly surrounded and attacked by so many experts?"

Bai Xing turned to look at Du Shu.

Xiao Mian, standing beside him, immediately stepped forward to explain, "Captain Bai, we didn't make a move, the young master just wanted to talk to him."

Xiao Mian's strength was at the peak of the fourth layer, but facing Bai Xing, he appeared extremely respectful.

Bai Xing glanced at Du Shu again, and then at Dong Yulin, who was being supported and looked pale. He seemed to understand something and turned back to look at Li Chonglou.

"They won't attack. You can rest assured."

Only then did Li Chonglou retract his aura and say calmly, "Since Captain Bai personally guarantees it, then I am reassured."

After speaking, he turned and left directly.

This time, neither Du Shu nor Dong Yulin dared to raise any further objections.

After Li Chonglou left, Bai Xing glared at Xiao Mian. The latter quickly cupped his fists and bowed again, appearing to admit his mistake.

"You are all old acquaintances of Fengtian. I shouldn't need to say more, but this must not happen again!"

After speaking, he led his men away.

Walking further away, Du Shu clearly heard Xiao Mian let out a deep sigh of relief. However, he couldn't personally comprehend the matter of experts, and his expression was clearly unconvinced.

"This guy is hiding his strength too well!"

Xiao Mian took the initiative to say, "Young master, his strength is not simple. If you want to make a move, not only can it not be in Fengtian, but you'll also have to call Brother Ba."

"You need to use Old Ba?"

Du Shu's brows furrowed tightly, then he looked at Dong Yulin, "Old Dong, how is the matter I asked you to handle? Did you send the video to Mu Qi?"

Dong Yulin was truly regretting his actions now. Although the Dong family was also one of the eight renowned families, this was not his territory. Moreover, because it was Fengtian, his men had not entered together.

If a fight had truly broken out just now, he would have been the first to die!

And the cause of all this was merely a thirty percent stake in a second-rate company!

The more Dong Yulin thought about it, the uglier his expression became, and he couldn't help but let out a cold snort, "I sent it long ago! Brother Du, I've lost a fortune this time. I want to receive my thirty percent stake today! Also, I'm not getting involved in this matter anymore, and I don't want it to spread from you!"

After speaking, Dong Yulin waved his hand and turned to leave directly.

Anyone could sense his anger, but Du Shu was a little surprised.

"When did this guy become so timid? He's being bullied to this extent, and he doesn't even react?"

In the past ten seconds, the only real victim present was Dong Yulin. Du Shu had the timely protection of Xiao Mian and was not significantly affected, but Dong Yulin had genuinely suffered the impact of Li Chonglou's aura.

If his subordinate hadn't quickly mediated with internal energy, he would have likely slept for several days!

Therefore, Du Shu found his reaction strange. According to his understanding, Dong Yulin should have reacted with rage towards Li Chonglou, not like this.

However, Du Shu didn't know that he had already suffered a great loss at Li Chonglou's hands in the bar, with nearly a month's worth of pocket money going down the drain!

Dong Yulin had originally intended to have a good time in Fengtian with this money. Now that the money was gone and his face was thoroughly humiliated, why would he stay?

Although the man had left, for Du Shu, his assurance that it was handled was enough, and the gloom on his face receded considerably.

"Humph, Mu Qi detests people who frequent entertainment venues the most. Let's see how you compete with me!"

Du Shu snorted coldly. Xiao Mian, standing beside him, looked as if he wanted to speak but didn't. In the end, he remained silent.

Li Chonglou, who had left the bar, soon returned to the entrance of the banquet.

The security guard he had seen earlier was still there. To his surprise, Mu Qi was also there.

It seemed she had been waiting there since early on. However, the meticulous Li Chonglou noticed that her expression seemed off.

As expected, as soon as he approached and before he could even say hello, Mu Qi suddenly took out her phone and handed it to him.

"Do you have any explanation?"

Her voice was completely different from the sweet and gentle tone before. Mu Qi was now very cold, as if Li Chonglou had done something to betray her.

Li Chonglou, completely bewildered, took the phone. It displayed a video. When he tapped to open it, the content was precisely the scene of his gamble with Dong Yulin.

"Uh, no wonder this guy was acting so childish. So he had this up his sleeve."

Li Chonglou understood instantly, but he was still confused by Mu Qi's reaction.

"What's wrong with this?"

In the video, he was at most looking at the beautiful women on the dance floor with Dong Yulin. There was nothing unusual. Li Chonglou couldn't understand why Mu Qi would react like this.

"You! I never thought you were like this! If I had known, I would have rather found Du Shu!"

Mu Qi snatched the phone back, her face full of indignation and grievance.

Li Chonglou vaguely guessed something and asked directly, "So you think I was doing something sordid with him?"

Mu Qi immediately became enraged.
