The two of them stood across the street, watching the entrance of Qinghua Pool from a distance.

Zhou Kai sat on the curb, puffing on a cigarette, and said, "Damn, can only watch from here, can't go in and have fun."

"This place, it's not clean." Lin Chuan said with a bitter smile, looking at the leggy welcoming girls at the entrance.

Suddenly, a few droplets of water fell on the back of Lin Chuan's hand. Glancing sideways, he saw Zhou Kai drooling over those girls, he couldn't help but curse: "Kai, were you born never having seen a woman? Just look at yourself."

Zhou Kai quickly wiped his mouth and awkwardly smiled, "Chuan, when do you think we can go in and have some fun?"

"Dream on, kid," Lin Chuan replied disdainfully.

"Hehe…" Zhou Kai still stared fiercely at those girls.

Lin Chuan crossed the street and stood on the curb to observe. Soon, he immediately identified Song Ming's car among the vehicles. Song Ming wasn't too interested in women but had a keen interest in antiques and rare collectibles, while the Song brothers were almost always indulged in pleasures of the flesh. Thus, it was pretty clear that this car definitely belonged to the Song brothers. A smile played on Lin Chuan's lips.

Seeing Lin Chuan return, Zhou Kai couldn't help but stand up.

"Chuan, how is it?" Zhou Kai asked anxiously.

"The target is inside Qinghua Pool," said Lin Chuan, taking a drag on his cigarette. "Let's just wait here; they'll have to come out sooner or later."

Zhou Kai nodded, opened his coat, revealing two fire axes tucked into his waistband. He laughed, "See? Got my tools ready. Just tell me which part you want, and I'll chop it off for you straight away."

Lin Chuan hadn't expected this guy to actually bring weapons, and said, "Put that away quickly. We are here to teach them a lesson, not to chop them up, damn it. Later, just keep watch for me, don't act rashly."

Zhou Kai shrugged his shoulders without responding, unsure if it was because of the cold weather or because he didn't know how to argue back at Lin Chuan's words.

The two continued to wait in the cold wind. Lin Chuan had two packs of cigarettes in his pocket, and during this time, he smoked one whole pack. Just when they were starting to feel desperate, suddenly, the Song brothers came out, their faces flushed with alcohol, probably just having had a great time, fully satisfied. From their expressions, it was clear they must have just gotten up from a woman's belly; not only were their steps unsteady, but their faces also radiantly flushed.

"They're here," Lin Chuan immediately said.

Zhou Kai had been patiently waiting with Lin Chuan; hearing the target had appeared, he almost reflexively jumped up from the ground and quickly gathered around Lin Chuan: "Chuan, where are they?"

"Those two who just came out," Lin Chuan pointed at the entrance, the Song brothers were just coming out, the owner of Qinghua Pool was offering them cigarettes while smiling and chatting with them about probably coming back tomorrow.

"Got it," Zhou Kai said eagerly.

"Time to make our move," Lin Chuan smiled.

"Yeah," Zhou Kai nodded,

Then, the two immediately disappeared into the darkness and sprinted towards the path the Song brothers had to take to get home. They had to intercept them before the brothers got home; otherwise, waiting so long tonight and enduring the cold wind would all have been for nothing.

"Brother," Song Wen smiled, "You're too polite."

"Not at all," Brother Hu nodded, "It's getting late, you should head back to rest early. You guys are busy people, and hold important positions."

"Oh, listen to you," laughed Song Wen, "We are just drivers, after all."

"What about it?" Brother Hu grinned, "Every day you have to escort Vice Secretary Song to and from work, that's an extremely important duty. Vice Secretary Song is like a parent to the people of Jiangbei City, beloved by the populace; your work is very important."

"Haha, Brother Hu, you really have a way with words," the brothers laughed heartily, Brother Hu's words made them feel very sweet inside. Sometimes, they did think their job was indeed extremely important.

In the end, the two got into the car and drove Song Ming's designated car away from Qinghua Pool. The two drove without any hesitation; no one dared to check the vice city head's car. Traffic police had already noted down the special cars of significant positions from the City Committee, just to avoid incidents where 'even the Dragon King Temple floods'. Thus, driving by the Song brothers was always reckless; drunk driving, speeding, running red lights...all sorts of traffic violations were too numerous to count.

Brother Hu watched as the Song siblings left, a cold smile spreading across his face.

"Brother Hu, why bother being so cordial to two drivers?" chuckled a subordinate by his side.

"You don't understand." Brother Hu smiled.

After speaking, Brother Hu swayed his body and walked into the hall.

The Song family brothers seemed still excited in the car, apparently very satisfied with today's arrangements. Song Wen, driving, laughed, "Qinghua Pool is really nice."

"Yeah." Song Wu, picking his teeth with a toothpick, said with a laugh: "It feels great, especially the girls today, tsk tsk, quite vigorous."

"Do you think if we keep doing this every day, Brother Hu would think we're freeloading?" Song Wen said somewhat embarrassingly.

"Bullshit." Song Wu spat and said: "He would be damn glad if we go, happy to climb the ladder with us. Too bad old uncle said we can't get involved with them."

"That's true." Song Wen nodded.

The two drove toward home, now in the middle of the night, the weather cold, with few pedestrians outside. They turned from Huai Mountain South Road into an alley—this was a shortcut home. After having a blast at Qinghua Pool, they usually took this shortcut. Taking the standard route would add about five kilometers to their journey. Besides, though the alley was dark, no one in Jiangbei City dared to mess with them.

Upon entering the alley, it was filled with parked cars from nearby residents. This alley was not a regular road, so traffic police had no authority to ticket here. This number of cars was usual when they entered the alley.

However, after they drove a little further, a silver-gray Changhe van blocked their way at the entrance of the alley, almost perpendicular to them. The van completely blocked the path. An irate Song Wen cursed, "Fuck, who the hell blocked the road?"

Rattle rattle rattle...

Frantically, Song Wen honked the horn, but no one responded.

"Let's back up," said Song Wu.

"Fuck, if I catch the bastard who did this." Song Wen grumbled, but just as he was about to reverse, two dark figures behind alerted him. Song Wen decisively hit the brakes and then shouted, "Brother, run!"

Song Wu knew something was up, and without a second word, he pushed open the car door and ran out.

At this point, two shadowy figures blocked their way forward and back. However, both masked their heads, making it impossible to discern their faces. Song Wen glanced at them and said, "Brothers, let's talk it out."

Just then, Zhou Kai walked forward, ignoring Lin Chuan's words; he held two firefighter axes, grinning: "You've made too many enemies; today, it's time to shed some blood on you."

"Don't." Song Wu hurriedly said, "Brother, look... How much money did they give you? We'll double it, how about that?"

"There's honor among thieves." Zhou Kai coldly laughed, "What? You look down on us?"

"No no no!" Song Wu quickly shook his head, covertly glancing around. Although visibly there were only two of them, he didn't know how many more might be hidden. Thus, Song Wu dared not act recklessly. If there really had been only two of them, he could have risked a fight, but who knows if they had backup. Song Wu said with a smile, "How about this, you name your terms?"

"One arm off each of you," Zhou Kai said with a terrifying smile on his lips.

"Fuck, brother, why bother talking to them! Let's do this!" Song Wen angrily said.

"Let's go!" Song Wu knew that continuing the standoff was pointless. Besides, he was quite skilled himself; it wasn't certain who would lose and who would win if it really came down to a fight.

Immediately, the two brothers charged at Lin Chuan and Zhou Kai. Zhou Kai, the fat man with two firefighter axes, hacked wildly at them. Song Wu sprinted towards him, then raised his leg fiercely kicking towards Zhou Kai's stomach. Zhou Kai, tough-skinned and fleshy, stepped back two paces as his firefighter axe swung up, missing.

At that moment, seeing Zhou Kai's group struggling to handle these two for so long, Lin Chuan decided to intervene decisively. A master's move is obvious immediately. Lin Chuan surged forward and from behind kicked Song Wen flying, then with a tornado kick, knocked Song Wu down on the spot.

Rustle rustle rustle...

Zhou Kai immediately charged forward and rapidly pinned both to the ground.

"Let us go, let us go!" Song Wen yelled furiously.

"Brother, let's talk, just talk." At this moment, Song Wu hurriedly spoke.

"Hehe..." Zhou Kai, holding two firefighter axes, laughed and said, "It was you who didn't want to talk properly first. You started wanting to fight."

"Damn it, do you know who we are?" Song Wen roared angrily. "We are the nephews of Vice Secretary Song of the City Committee. If you dare to touch us, sooner or later we will hunt you down; no one will escape."
