Chen Jie smiled broadly, clapping her hands and giving a thumbs up as she praised, "Impressive!"
Zhu Li, still with her stunningly cool expression, sparkled with a hint of admiration in her eyes as she considered, "Today, thankfully, this teenager helped me, or else not only would I have been embarrassed, but my left foot would have been ruined!"
With that thought, she tenderly favored Luo Yang with several glances.
Chen Jie personally poured a glass of red wine for both Luo Yang and An Yuying, smiling as she said, "Both of you, have a drink."
Then, Luo Yang and An Yuying politely sipped from their glasses.
At that moment, Chen Jie pressed a button on the wall, and soon a male waiter dragged Iron Hand out of the private room.
Zhu Li expressed her gratitude, "Luo Yang, you were a real friend tonight, no need for any compensation. Here's ten thousand yuan for you to spend. If you want a drink, come to my place; if you need money, just find me."
As she spoke, she took a stack of cash from her LV bag and pushed it across the coffee table towards Luo Yang.
Luo Yang thought it would be better to borrow from Zhu Li when he really needed money in the future. So, he pushed the stack of cash back towards her and seriously said, "It was no big deal, no need to be polite."
Zhu Li's deep eyes flickered with admiration as she insisted, "Don't be polite, take it. I also have a wish, though I'm not sure whether to mention it."
"Please do."
"I've always wanted to acknowledge a younger brother, would you consider acknowledging me as your elder sister?"
"Sure!"
"Then from now on, I'm your elder sister. Come on, let's drink to that." Zhu Li raised her glass.
The two clinked glasses to celebrate their newfound brother-sister bond.
Chen Jie flirtatiously smiled, "Luo Yang, I want to acknowledge you as my younger brother too, would you agree?"
Luo Yang readily responded, "Of course!"
Immediately, the three clinked glasses to celebrate the formation of their sibling bond.
"Little sister, you're quite pretty. I still don't know how to address you," Zhu Li regarded the aloof An Yuying.
"Just call me Yuying."
Upon hearing Zhu Li address her as "little sister," Yuying's cheeks blushed. She shyly glanced at Luo Yang and seeing his lack of objection, her smile grew even broader.
In the midst of their conversation, Luo Yang received a message on his phone. Opening it, it read, "I am Fo Tou Qing. Dare to hit my cousin, and I'll chop you up! Waiting for you in Laixi Bar, private room 203. If you don't come tonight, tomorrow you're dead meat!"
Xiao Yingfei's cousin, Luo Yang knew her. Her surname was Wang, with a single name Qing, and she was nicknamed Fo Tou Qing because she sported a Skrillex haircut, shaved clean on one side of the head, giving her a greenish appearance, thus earning her the nickname Fo Tou Qing.
Fo Tou Qing was somewhat known in the underworld, and acquaintances would call her Sister Fo Tou.
Private room 203 was also on the second floor, just a few steps away from the door.
Luo Yang stood up to leave, saying, "Elder sisters, I have something to take care of, I need to go."
Zhu and Chen tried to keep him, but Luo Yang mentioned he had to meet someone in private room 203, so they reluctantly let him go.
Once Luo Yang had left the private room, Chen Jie remarked, "I didn't expect him to be such a fighter."
Zhu Li added, "From the way he handles things, you can tell he is going to be a big deal in the future. We won't go wrong following him."
Hearing such startling words, Chen Jie laughed for a good while.
"Come on, tell me, what makes you think he's going to be someone important in the future? Convince me."
"He hit my car and left a note; actually, it showed he hoped I wouldn't ask for compensation, which shows he's clever; he helped me deal with Iron Hand, likely out of genuine goodwill, which shows he is loyal and has the demeanor of a leader. Many people would want to be friends with someone like him. Besides, he is very skilled. He didn't even show all his capabilities just now."
"Pfft, you acknowledging him as your younger brother, he's the one who scored."
"Actually, it's us who scored. It's a long-term investment. He's not powerful now, so it's easy for us to bond with him as a younger brother. Once he becomes very capable, if we then tried to cozy up to him, would he still care about us?"
"Pfft, you praise him so highly, you're not falling for him, are you?"
