Volume 2 + Chapter 110: Request
Chen Tie raised his head and looked towards the source of the voice, stunned.
Two uninvited guests had arrived.
And their identities were especially unwelcome in the Cangqing Gang.
“How did you get in here?!” Chen Tie stood up and questioned loudly.
The people who came were none other than Xia Yi and Serra.
The Cangqing Gang’s cadre stood to the side and replied tremblingly, “Boss, they said they wanted to see you, and if you weren’t willing, they would force their way in… The brothers had no choice but to…”
That night, Serra’s terror was witnessed firsthand by the Cangqing Gang members. She had actually beaten their boss to the ground without even using her full strength.
Such terrifying power had been deeply etched into the hearts of the Cangqing Gang’s members, knowing they couldn’t defeat Serra… If she were to cause trouble again, the Cangqing Gang would suffer heavy losses, so they had no choice but to let them pass.
Thus, Xia Yi and Serra easily met with Chen Tie.
It was truly ironic. Apart from some individuals with status and position, others wishing to meet the leader of the Cangqing Gang was like talking to a wall.
But now…
These two people, coming into the Cangqing Gang as if it were a public place, coming and going as they pleased.
Humiliation.
Chen Tie had never experienced such humiliation before. His eyes were already red with anger.
“Boss, you talk with… them, I’ll go and stabilize the brothers’ emotions!!” Seeing the situation turning sour, the Cangqing Gang’s cadre found an excuse to slip away.
“Chen Tie, are you alright?” Serra asked.
“Alright my ass!!”
Chen Tie was furious. With a punch, he smashed the table in front of him to pieces.
“Get out, you’re not welcome here, don’t force me to take action!”
At this moment, it was simply the lowest point of his life. He couldn’t even protect his own gang members who had been falsely accused, arrested, and imprisoned, their lives hanging by a thread.
Doubts had already arisen within the gang about him, no longer worshipping him unconditionally as before, his authority hanging by a thread.
Now, to be ridiculed by enemies at his doorstep.
But after all, he was a tough guy who had fought fiercely by Lucia’s side. Even knowing he was no match for Serra, he couldn’t possibly submit. If he was to be beaten to death, so be it.
Xia Yi glanced at Serra.
If Serra continued to talk with Chen Tie, it would only provoke this hot-tempered dragon… Therefore, the initiative had to be handed over to Xia Yi for there to be room for negotiation.
The exclusive personal maid immediately understood and stood behind Xia Yi, slightly lowering her head.
This action surprised Chen Tie.
Why would the legend of the Hechi Gang be so respectful to this silly-looking white-haired loli?
He began to grow curious about Xia Yi’s identity.
“Chen Tie, I heard that members of your Cangqing Gang were arrested by the security team and are now imprisoned. Before long, they will be sentenced by the court. You must be troubled by this matter,” Xia Yi said.
“So what if I am, what does it have to do with you! We will solve this matter ourselves!”
“Hehe, you really are stubborn, just like a donkey,” Xia Yi said bluntly, “It’s a pity, you can’t do anything, no one will offer you help, after all, this is the will of the emerging nobility.”
Chen Tie fell silent.
Of course he knew the current situation. Everyone knew that in this city, one absolutely must not make an enemy of the new nobles.
Since they intended for the Cangqing Gang members to die, no one would dare to offer help.
Otherwise, it would mean confronting the security team.
“How can I just watch my brothers die? She saved my life. I swore to be like her! My brothers absolutely cannot die!”
“Chen Tie, do you think that’s possible?”
“Shut up, it’s not your place to comment. If it weren’t for you people, how would things have come to this?!”
“Interesting, Chen Tie,” Xia Yi continued to question, “Is it really because of us? Think carefully, why were the Cangqing Gang members arrested by the security team?”
“Because he released his dragon form and was betrayed by the young master of the Elvin family, so the security team arrested him.”
“Don’t you think there’s something wrong with that?”
“Where? Isn’t this a violation of Corolle’s laws?” Chen Tie asked.
“Since when can’t dragons release their true form?”
“——”
Chen Tie’s eyes widened, speechless.
“We are dragons, why can’t we live on this land in our true form? Since when have our freedoms been restricted?”
The little princess retorted, “The laws established by the Dragon Kingdom have never had such a clause. Then, who exactly is tampering with the laws, disregarding everything, and trampling on the dignity of dragons?”
Chen Tie’s breathing quickened. “What are you trying to say?”
“I think the Cangqing Gang members should not be judged by the court. Chen Tie, I came to tell you this. The truly guilty ones are the new nobles. The New Chamber of Commerce should be the ones to face legal sanctions.”
“This is absurd, impossible, the emerging nobility’s influence in Corolle is deeply rooted…”
“Heh, Yujin asked me to come back and pay attention to your Cangqing Gang. She had high hopes for you, but you turned out to be such a coward… Forget it, let’s go.”
After saying this, Xia Yi turned to leave.
She deliberately used a bit of reverse psychology. For a tough guy like Chen Tie, reasoning alone wasn’t very effective.
“Wait! What did you just say?” Chen Tie stopped Xia Yi. “How do you know the boss?”
“Knowing is knowing, why so many questions?”
“No, you must be lying to me… How could you possibly know the boss?!”
Xia Yi glanced at Serra.
This was Serra’s cue to take the stage. She said straightforwardly, “Chen Tie, since you want to know so badly, I’ll tell you. Lucia is my sister. She and I are sisters from the Cavendish family.”
“Sisters…” Chen Tie was not surprised. “So you really are sisters. But why did the boss disappear!?”
“Lucia’s vision is not limited to just Corolle… Before leaving, she thought you were reliable, so she left, believing you would protect the Hechi Gang well. Unfortunately…” Serra sighed. “The current you is such a disappointment, if Lucia knew, she would only think she had misjudged.”
The interplay between master and servant was simply perfect, so in sync that they didn’t even need to rehearse the script beforehand. They could just open their mouths and speak.
These words were like needles stabbing into Chen Tie’s heart.
No matter what the situation was before, he could bear it, but this, if he disappointed the Lucia he most admired…
That was the last thing he could accept.
Chen Tie raised his head and stared at Xia Yi, his eyes surging with intense emotion.
“Tell me, can you… really change Corolle?”
“Of course. But I need more people to believe that Corolle can be changed. That’s why I came to find you today,” Xia Yi replied. “You can become one of them.”
“Alright, I can promise you,” Chen Tie paused, “but do you dare to accept a request from me?”
“What request?”
“A request that could cost you your life.”
