Hearing Lei Gongjun's words, filled with shock and fury, Luo Yang was especially pleased.
The revenge in Jianghu is just that cruel.
Luo Yang had grown accustomed to it.
When Lei Gongjun had people smash the tea shop without paying compensation, Luo Yang had no choice but to make him pay the corresponding price.
Of course, that was only the first step.
What Luo Yang aimed to achieve was to make Lei Gongjun forever walk with his tail between his legs, he might even make him disappear.
"Little Lei, don't talk nonsense. I didn't smash your shop. If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll sue you for slander," Luo Yang said with a cheerful laugh.
"You little bastard! I won't let you off!" Lei Gongjun shouted in anger.
"Come on, I'm right outside your store. If you don't come, you're a coward," Luo Yang laughed.
A series of curses came through the phone, but there was no indication that Lei Gongjun would come.
Luo Yang's capabilities were well known.
It was dinnertime, and An Yuying called Luo Yang urging him to come home for dinner.
Luo Yang then drove back to Hongyun Brigade.
Normally, Luo Yang ate at his own house.
Currently, since many beauties had moved to Qin Piao's house, they cooked and ate together.
Hong Jiaxin also enjoyed dining with the other beauties, and Luo Yang joined in the fun, eating with them.
Upon returning to Qin Piao's house, Luo Yang needed to comfort An Yuying.
Having gone to the county town with Tang Guihua, An Yuying knew and was quite jealous.
But, Hong Jiaxin needed comforting even more.
Qin Piao, An Yuying, and Fang Lin were all downstairs, but Hong Jiaxin was nowhere to be seen.
Not seeing Hong Jiaxin made Luo Yang somewhat nervous.
He had promised Hong Zhong to take good care of his precious daughter; if something happened to Hong Jiaxin, he'd face the Hong Zhong Couple embarrassingly.
The expressions of the beauties appeared normal, not like something had happened, so Luo Yang knew Hong Jiaxin was upstairs.
Seeing Luo Yang, An Yuying's lips pursed slightly.
"Cowboy, you were gone for quite a while to the county town," An Yuying said sweetly.
"Sister An, I was handling some matters. I'll talk about it with you later. I'm going upstairs to see the squad leader," Luo Yang said.
Seeing Luo Yang heading upstairs, An Yuying's lips pursed even more.
"Cowboy, what dishes do you want to eat?" An Yuying asked.
"Whatever you all are eating, I'll eat," Luo Yang said as he reached the second floor.
He saw that the door to the room of Hong Jiaxin was slightly open. Luo Yang gently pushed it open and saw her lying on the bed.
He didn't know how long she had been lying there, possibly for hours.
Suddenly, Luo Yang felt a bit saddened. He could understand Hong Jiaxin's feelings but was unable to help her resolve her troubles quickly.
He didn't know the first thing about the trouble Hong Zhong was facing, and wondered how he could possibly be of help.
He walked softly into the room and sat down at the edge of the bed.
Luo Yang said, "Squad leader."
Hong Jiaxin did not respond, as if she were deep in sleep.
"Squad leader, it's time to eat. Let's get up," Luo Yang said.
Seeing her sinking deeper, Luo Yang didn't know how to encourage her.
"Not hungry," Hong Jiaxin replied.
When spirits are low, indeed, one doesn't feel much hunger.
But that was an illusion.
"Squad leader, you shouldn't always lie in bed," Luo Yang said as he pulled her up.
"I want to sleep," Hong Jiaxin resisted Luo Yang's hand and lay down again.
If he couldn't cheer her up, Luo Yang worried she might quickly fall ill.
Just then, footsteps coming upstairs were heard.
"Cowboy, what are you doing?" An Yuying's voice sounded.
"Sister An, I'll be right down," Luo Yang replied.
He then whispered in Hong Jiaxin's ear, sharing a secret.
"Squad leader, Sister An is coming up. Let's go downstairs," Luo Yang whispered.
Hong Jiaxin did not respond.
"Cowboy, Jiaxin, what are you doing?" An Yuying said sourly.
Speaking, she came inside.
"Sister An, I was talking to the squad leader," Luo Yang explained.
"What's going on here? It's time to eat, let's go downstairs," An Yuying said, her lips pursing even more.
An Yuying had already been very jealous after Luo Yang went to the county town with Tang Guihua that afternoon.
"Sister An, come sit down," Luo Yang invited.
"I won't sit. It's time to eat," An Yuying said.
Though she said that, An Yuying walked towards Luo Yang.
"Sister An, come, have a seat. We will go down together soon," Luo Yang said.
Luo Yang reached out to grab An Yuying's hand.
"No. Jiaxin, it's time to eat," An Yuying whispered.
