Since everyone apologized, Huang Xiaolong didn't pursue the matter further.
It was getting late and everyone was hungry.
Leng Kai and Song Jian gathered and whispered amongst themselves.
"Damn, this country bumpkin sure has a sharp tongue..." Leng Kai looked disgruntled. Even though he'd been put in his place by Huang Xiaolong, his vengeful nature demanded that he regain his dignity.
"Leng Kai, what should we do?" Song Jian asked.
"Anyway, we're already involved with him! No rush, we'll bide our time, seize an opportunity to embarrass him, let him lose face!" A hint of revenge reflected in Leng Kai's eyes.
"Huang Xiaolong, didn't you invite us to dinner?" Song Jian approached Huang Xiaolong. "But we can't really eat your Dragon-Phoenix Soup... How about roasting a few sheep for us?"
Song Jian was counting on the fact that Huang Xiaolong didn't have much money, so insisted on eating a whole roasted sheep, hoping to make Huang Xiaolong squirm.
