286: Chapter 286 The Smiling Tiger Can't Laugh Anymore

Inside the Yue Family tea room,

Yue Buqun was like a waiter, proactively helping to brew and pour tea.

He even provided thorough service to Xiao Ju.

He made an inviting gesture and said, "Young Master Qin, Mr. Cui, please have some tea."

Cui Yunxuan looked toward her father with a hint of embarrassment.

As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling face.

Given Yue Buqun's eager attitude, if she hadn't been kicked out of the villa earlier, she would have suspected that Yue Buqun and her father were some kind of close friends!

As a king of trash talk whose mastery of profanity far exceeded that of idioms, Xiao Ju unleashed her ultimate without any wind-up, "Yue Buqun, stop fucking acting like such a big shot in front of us!"

"Was our Old President's previous erosion by evil spirits a plot by someone your Yue Family found to harm him?"

"Don't think we don't know that your Yue Family is closest to those Sakura devils. You're fucking Dragon traitors!"

Yue Buqun didn't get angry; instead, his smile became increasingly bitter as he said, "I've been wronged!"

He looked at Cui Leilong and said, "Mr. Cui, we did have some conflicts before, but it wouldn't go as far as wanting to kill the other side!"

"My Yue Family is more wronged than Dou E!"

The corner of Cui Leilong's mouth twitched unnaturally.

He had met Yue Buqun and knew this guy always showed a smiling face, but he never expected...

...that this fellow Yue Buqun could be so obsequious to such a shocking degree.

Cui Leilong looked at Qin Ge, and Qin Ge looked at Xiao Ju.

Xiao Ju picked up the tea in her hand and suddenly splashed it at Yue Buqun. She slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, "What the fuck are you smiling about? Your old face is wrinkled like a damn old chrysanthemum."

"If you're unhappy, have the guts to go to war with our Thunder Dragon Society. Let's have a real fight with blades and guns to see if I, Xiao Ju, can't hack you to death!"

Yue Buqun wiped the tea from his face, shook his head, and said, "This is truly a misunderstanding!"

He looked at Cui Leilong and said, "However, since you've come to our door, Mr. Cui, it shows you are truly angry this time. The matter of the evil spirits really has nothing to do with my Yue Family. But we did have some previous conflicts, and even Young Master Qin has stepped in. My Yue Family is willing to compensate the Thunder Dragon Society for its losses!"

Xiao Ju snorted, "Our Thunder Dragon Society lost at least several hundred million. Will you pay?"

Yue Buqun nodded heavily without any hesitation, "Our Yue Family is willing to pay! One billion, it will definitely arrive within two hours!"

"Holy crap!?"

Xiao Ju looked at the solemn Yue Buqun, her pupils shaking as she slumped back into her chair.

She, Xiao Ju, had been roaming the Jianghu since dropping out of school—if not for fifteen years, then at least twelve!

She had never seen such a brazen and shameless person!

"Head of the Yue Family, since you're willing to compensate the Thunder Dragon Society, can you also hand over Lin Yu?"

Jiang Ling looked at Yue Buqun, who had thin ghost qi restrained around him, and spoke with a cold face.

"Lin Yu?" Yue Buqun asked puzzledly, "Who is Lin Yu?"

Jiang Ling frowned in dissatisfaction, "Let's speak plainly. My martial sisters and I saw Lin Yu enter the Yue Family with our own eyes, and he never came out. If you hadn't hidden him, how could Lin Yu's aura vanish into thin air?"

"I've been wronged!"

Yue Buqun looked at Qin Ge and wailed, "Young Master Qin, I'm truly being wronged!"

"I don't even know any Lin Yu, so how could I hide him?"

He looked at Jiang Ling and said decisively, "How about this? Since you're Young Master Qin's friend and say I've hidden your enemy in this villa..."

"...then feel free to search boldly. Even if you turn the entire Yue Family upside down and dig three feet into the ground, as long as you can find that guy named Lin Yu—no, that's not right—as long as you can find even a trace of him, I, Yue, will have no further complaints."

Jiang Ling said dissatisfiedly, "Could a living person just evaporate from the world?"

Yue Buqun still refused to budge, saying, "I simply don't know Lin Yu!"

Tsk!

Qin Ge looked at the distressed-looking Yue Buqun and couldn't help but click his tongue, "Head of the Yue Family, you truly have a broad mind!"

"Others have stepped on your face, yet you can still greet them with a smile."

Yue Buqun looked at Qin Ge and said awkwardly, "These are all your friends, Young Master Qin. Even if I were given a hundred times more courage, I wouldn't dare oppose you."

With a smile on his lips, Qin Ge said playfully, "So, you're determined not to hand over Lin Yu?"

Yue Buqun pulled a long face helplessly and said, "Young Master Qin, I really don't know Lin Yu."

Qin Ge nodded, "You don't know Lin Yu, and I don't know Yue Kui. Good, very good, let's just keep playing dumb!"

"Kui'er?" The smile on Yue Buqun's face twitched unnaturally. "Young Master Qin, Kui'er hasn't been home for a few days. Could it be that you've invited him over as a guest?"

Qin Ge nodded, "I kidnapped Yue Kui. As long as you don't hand over Lin Yu, I won't hand over Yue Kui. However, while Lin Yu is being well-served with good food and drink at your place, Yue Kui is being fried in mountains of blades and seas of fire at mine."

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Yue Buqun's smile suddenly freeze, Qin Ge quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm just joking with you!"

"Who doesn't know that Yue Kui is your only son?"

"No matter what, I couldn't possibly act so ruthlessly!"

"Yue Kui is already back; he's in his room."

"If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see."

After saying that, Qin Ge stood up and familiarly led the way, taking Yue Buqun, Jiang Ling, and Cui Yunxuan toward Yue Kui's bedroom.

Bang—

He kicked the door open with one foot.

Only to see Yue Kui hanging straight down beneath the chandelier in the bedroom.

"Who the fuck told you to play on a swing in the bedroom?"

Qin Ge stepped forward and kicked the hanging Yue Kui directly into the bedroom wall.

Cui Yunxuan looked up at the thick hemp rope hanging there and murmured in a daze, "That should be a hanging, right?"

Qin Ge stepped forward, pulled Yue Kui out of the dented wall, and kept slapping Yue Kui's face, cursing, "Wake up!"

While slapping him, he happened to catch sight of red, purple, and splotchy red spots on Yue Kui's body.

Qin Ge dissatisfiedly grabbed Yue Kui's collar, stuffed him back into the dented wall, and followed up with a kick, cursing unhappily, "I won't nitpick about you playing on a swing in your room!"

"It's none of my business if you get random tattoos to show off your personality."

"But what the fuck do you mean by tattooing that damn Sakura sun flag on your body while on the land of the Dragon Country?!"

Gulp!

Cui Leilong, Cui Yunxuan, and Xiao Ju looked at the brutally beaten Yue Kui, who never opened his eyes, and all subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

Jiang Ling glanced at Yue Kui embedded in the wall, looked at Qin Ge, and informed him softly, "Qin Ge, those aren't tattoos; they look like livor mortis..."
