Brother Wei finished speaking nervously, for he could sense a faint murderous aura beginning to emanate from Brother Xing.
Having known Brother Xing for years, this was the first time Brother Wei had seen him so enraged, and it scared him witless.
“It’s nothing, you don’t need to worry about this. I’ll take some men later to have a nice little meeting with this old friend!” Brother Xing said before leaving.
Although Brother Xing had just said he was off to meet an old friend as he left, the shrewd Brother Wei knew better. Who talks about an old friend with such gritted teeth like Brother Xing had? This was clearly an enemy!
At this thought, Brother Wei’s heart grew even happier. After all, he’d just proven no match for that Xu Fei.
But if Xu Fei was an old foe of Brother Xing’s, then Brother Wei knew his chances of revenge were looking good!
By now, Xu Fei had arrived at Jialan Bar and casually found a seat.
He tried to act familiar so that others wouldn’t peg him as a newcomer and shun him.
Before long, Xu Fei spotted a few burly men sitting around a group of young women in the bar.
Seeing this, Xu Fei knew he might’ve come to the right place.
Typically, in a scene like this, once those big guys had a few drinks, they’d start showing off in front of the girls and boasting.
As they boasted, they’d let slip some truths they knew, which was exactly why Xu Fei had come here.
Sure enough, after a few drinks, the men got tipsy and started bragging.
Xu Fei quietly nursed his drink and edged closer, otherwise the loud music in the bar would make it too hard to hear.
After listening from the sidelines for a while, Xu Fei pieced together the scattered bits of info. The only useful tidbit seemed to be about Wei Xinghuo.
According to these guys, Wei Xinghuo had been forced to leave the army temporarily because of Xu Fei.
You’d think he’d settle into a quiet life after that; with his adoptive father Wei Kangnian backing him, he could’ve lived happily and comfortably if he’d chosen that path.
But Wei Xinghuo was clearly no pushover. Back in the army, he’d been an officer, commanding quite a few men.
Perhaps after leaving the military, with no one left to order around, he felt out of place, or maybe he just still harboured a deep grudge against Xu Fei.
So, after leaving the army, Wei Xinghuo immediately got involved in the streets. With his strong background, he quickly rose to prominence among the local thugs.
Now, Wei Xinghuo ran a bar and an arcade, which on the surface looked like legitimate businesses.
But behind the scenes, he was raking in cash through all sorts of shady, borderline dealings.
On top of that, Wei Xinghuo had big ambitions. He’d taken the training methods he’d used as an army officer and applied them to drilling his own crew.
Other so-called street bosses just had ragtag bunches of hoodlums under them.
Their strength came purely from numbers.
But Wei Xinghuo was different. In terms of headcount, his crew was the smallest, yet their combat ability was the strongest in the entire capital’s underworld.
After learning this, Xu Fei listened a bit longer but realised the group had nothing left but hot air to offer, so he got up and left the bar.
