The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 116 - 115 Leave Your Saozi Behind

...

"What!" Yan Xiaobao exploded as soon as he heard, "I asked you to accompany my wife to pay off some debt and check out the property. How could she end up being detained? How can you screw up such a simple task? Where’s Zhao Erhu? Where the hell did he go?"

"Zhao Erhu... he’s with me..." Chen Long said, looking incredibly aggrieved. "Big Sis... she owes money to Brother Biao. Brother Biao’s influence in Baofeng District is top-tier. We... we can’t handle him..."

Yan Xiaobao fired back irritably, "I asked you guys to pay the debt, not to seize territory. How could you not handle it?"

"We did go to pay, but..." Chen Long explained, "Brother Biao insisted that debt incurred at the gambling table should be settled at the gambling table. He doesn’t want our money but wants to gamble with us instead. We didn’t dare to gamble, so we called you, Brother Bao..."

"Is he out of his mind? Owing money means repaying money. What kind of nonsense gambling is this?" Yan Xiaobao asked angrily. "Where are you guys? I’m coming over right now!"

Chen Long sighed in relief upon hearing this and quickly relayed the address to Yan Xiaobao.

...

"Hong Kong Island" nightclub—this is Brother Biao’s lair. Beneath the nightclub, on the underground first floor, is not a parking lot but a heavily guarded underground casino with a pure steel door.

Yanhuang Empire has been cracking down hard on illegal gambling, and opening an underground casino in a provincial capital city signals just how powerful Brother Biao’s backing is.

At this moment, inside the underground casino, two groups were in a tense standoff, ready to explode at any moment.

Chen Long and Zhao Erhu flanked Tiantian on either side, protecting her, standing stiffly with twenty or so underlings, staring nervously at the forty to fifty men opposite them.

In the middle of these forty to fifty fierce henchmen sat a brawny man with his bare chest inked with all sorts of Divine Beasts. He was smirking at Zhao Erhu’s group mockingly. "Zhao Erhu, you’ve grown bold lately, huh? Daring to bring your crew to my territory and show off. You’ve got guts, kid!"

"Brother Biao, how could you say that..." Zhao Erhu forced a shaky smile, standing under immense pressure. "I’m here today specially to pay back what Big Sis owes you. Since when would I dare strut around in Brother Biao’s domain..."

"Why are you paying back the Tian Family girl’s debt? Is it because you’ve got something going on with her?" Brother Biao asked maliciously, his tone dripping with eerie Yang Energy.

"Brother Biao, you can’t say things like that." Zhao Erhu frantically waved his hands. "She’s Brother Bao’s woman—I’m just here because he told me to accompany Saozi and help settle the debt."

"Brother Bao? Hahaha!" Brother Biao let out a loud laugh. "Word is that you’ve struck gold lately, Zhao Erhu, clung to a big shot’s leg. Heard you guys even took my brother Luo Jianbi’s turf. I’ve been itching to see how capable your Brother Bao really is. Lucky me—it seems today’s the day."

Cold sweat dripped down Zhao Erhu’s back. His crew was not even a tenth of Brother Biao’s, and if things came to a head, there might be no walking out of this underground casino upright today. freёweɓnovel_com

Even though Chen Long was technically Zhao Erhu’s "big brother," there was no room for him to speak in a scenario like this. This wasn’t some movie—a wrong move here could end with bloody consequences...

"Brother Biao, there’s been a misunderstanding. Brother Jianbi’s turf was shut down by the authorities, not taken by us." Zhao Erhu cautiously explained, trying to smooth things over. "If Brother Biao’s interested in meeting Brother Bao, that’s easy—tomorrow, I’ll arrange a feast with good food and drink, and we would be greatly honored to have Brother Biao attend. However, for tonight... could you do us a favor and let Saozi go back first?"

"Zhao Erhu, Zhao Erhu, I didn’t expect you’d be so loyal. Even with the odds stacked against you, you’re still trying to protect Big Sis. Not bad, not bad." Brother Biao clapped his hands twice, his greedy eyes fixed on the increasingly uneasy Tiantian.

"Since the cat’s out of the bag, I won’t hide my intentions anymore. That little beauty Tiantian—I’ve had my eye on her for a while now. Was just waiting for her dad to default on payments so I could use her as ’compensation.’ Now you tell me—can I let her go? Heh heh heh! Hahaha!"

Tiantian’s face turned pale with fright upon hearing this. If she ended up being taken by Brother Biao, then her brief stint as a "mistress" would most certainly result in being abandoned by Yan Xiaobao...

Zhao Erhu knew he’d reached the end of his rope. In Yan Xiaobao’s eyes, nothing was more important than his wife. If something were to happen to Tiantian, how could Zhao Erhu face him?

Though his power wasn’t nearly on par with Brother Biao’s and fighting head-on was sheer folly—at a moment this critical, Zhao Erhu knew the only option left was laying down his life to ensure Tiantian’s safety.

"Brother Biao, if this is how you’re going to handle things, it doesn’t seem very appropriate." Zhao Erhu straightened his back, his tone firm. "In this world, loyalty is everything. Brother Biao, if you insist on making things difficult for Saozi, then I have no choice but to stand against you!"

Upon hearing Zhao Erhu’s words, Chen Long and the twenty-something men behind him immediately shifted into high alert. At this point, whether they hesitated or charged, there’d be blood—it was better to fight back than just stand still.

"Am I making it hard for you guys?" Brother Biao spread his hands theatrically, feigning confusion, then turned to his forty-to-fifty underlings. "Am I causing trouble for them?"

"Of course not! If Brother Biao really wanted to trouble them, they’d all be flattened by now! Hahaha!" The group burst into laughter in unison.

Brother Biao’s expression suddenly grew cold. "In this world, we not only talk loyalty, we must also follow the rules! Your Saozi owes me money, and by my rules, gambling debt gets settled on the gambling table. You beat me, you owe nothing, and you can leave."

"And if we lose?" Chen Long asked nervously.

"If you lose..." Brother Biao leered again at Tiantian, his vile stare seemingly tearing through her clothes. "If you lose, there’s no need to pay—the only cost is leaving your Brother Bao’s woman behind!"

Before Zhao Erhu and Chen Long could react, the thick stainless-steel door suddenly fell forward with a loud "BAM!"

"Who dares touch my wife?" Yan Xiaobao charged in, radiating murderous energy.

Seeing Yan Xiaobao’s intimidating presence, Brother Biao and his forty-to-fifty underlings couldn’t help but feel a pang of fear.

Relieved, Zhao Erhu, Chen Long, and their men finally exhaled deeply and relaxed.

"Honey!" Tiantian cried with joy and rushed to Yan Xiaobao’s arms.

Having just experienced terror, Tiantian was overwhelmed by the sense of security emanating from Yan Xiaobao. Her feelings towards him shifted dramatically, and unknowingly, she developed a newfound sense of belonging, genuinely starting to see herself as Yan Xiaobao’s woman.

"So you’re Brother Bao, huh? Tough guy." Brother Biao forced himself to maintain composure, asserting his dominance. "If you want to take her away, you’ll first have to beat me on the gambling table!"
