Evil Wolf Gang.

Gou Dai didn't sleep well last night; on one hand, the effect of the medicine on his wound wore off, making the pain worse.

On the other hand, he was too excited at the thought of finally avenging himself.

Tossing and turning in bed, thinking about how to regain his standing today and hold his head high.

Early in the morning.

Gou Dai got up early and called a few servants, saying, "Let's go to the Plum Blossom Martial Arts Hall."

"Young Master, you're injured, your health is important, don't go to the hall to practice boxing today, just rest at home for a while, we're all worried for you," a servant said ingratiatingly.

"Haha."

Gou Dai laughed loudly and said, "I'm going to the hall this time not to practice boxing, just to make an appearance, meet my brothers at the hall, and let them know I'm okay."

All night he thought about how to celebrate today.

After some thought, since yesterday he lost face in front of everyone at the Plum Blossom Martial Arts Hall because of his injury,

today, naturally, he should regain his standing in front of the same crowd.

Especially to let Mei Yingxue see.

The servants were all very observant, seeing Gou Dai's look of triumph, they more or less guessed his thoughts.

They assisted him onto the carriage.

Just as they reached the entrance of the Evil Wolf Gang, Gou Dai suddenly thought of something and asked with a frown, "Did Li Tao come back last night?"

This matter better not go wrong.

A servant said, "Protector Li went out in the evening and didn't return all night."

"Oh?"

Gou Dai hesitated upon hearing this.

Another servant laughed and said, "Young Master, you can rest easy, with Protector Li handling this, there won't be any mistakes."

"With Protector Li's skills, dealing with Chen Tang is as simple as crushing an ant," another servant added.

Hearing this, Gou Dai nodded, feeling a bit reassured.

"But why didn't he come back last night?"

Gou Dai asked again.

A servant winked and asked, "Young Master, do you know how Protector Li got the nickname 'Hua Bao'?"

Gou Dai replied, "It's said it's because of his body technique and quick moves, and he has pockmarks on his face, hence the name Hua Bao."

The servant gave a sleazy smile and said, "Young Master only knows part of it, the 'Hua' in Hua Bao actually hints at Protector Li's fondness for romance, he's naturally flirtatious."

"Which girl at the brothel in Changze County doesn't know Protector Li, heh heh."

"Oh?"

Mentioning this kind of thing, Gou Dai felt a bit restless, licking his lips.

Over the years, following his father's instructions, he pursued and pleased Mei Yingxue, hoping for a family alliance to strengthen their power.

So, his father always forbade him from setting foot in brothels.

As his father said, even if you're pretending, you should look the part.

But he's of age after all, filled with youthful energy, often feeling restless, so he found a few maids in the gang for comfort.

These maids were too young, crying and fussing, utterly uninteresting.

He always heard that the women in brothels are all charming and enchanting.

Unfortunately, he never had the chance.

A servant said, "Young Master, I guess Protector Li succeeded last night and went to the brothel for some fun, holding the girls as he slept."

"Hmm."

Gou Dai nodded, saying, "Let's go, to the Plum Blossom Martial Arts Hall."

Li Tao is experienced in this route. When there's an opportunity, I must have him take me there for a tour, call on all the girls, and have a grand gathering!

Gou Dai was secretly plotting this, getting more excited the more he thought about it.

Before long, Gou Dai and his people arrived at the Plum Blossom Martial Arts Hall.

With the help of the servants, Gou Dai got off the carriage and entered the hall.

"Is Brother Gou okay?"

"Brother Gou has such a strong body, I was worried yesterday, but didn't expect to see you today."

"If it were me, I'd have to lie at home for half a year."

Many young men who usually practiced boxing together gathered around when they saw Gou Dai, looking concerned, chattering away.

Gou Dai endured the pain and waved his hand casually, saying, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

He seemed to regain that calm and mature image.

"Junior Sister Yingxue."

Seeing Mei Yingxue not far away, Gou Dai greeted her with a nod and smile.

Mei Yingxue originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but since they practiced boxing together, she couldn't be too cold, so she walked over and frowned at Gou Dai saying, "Why aren't you at home recuperating, what are you doing at the hall?"

"Junior Sister Yingxue, are you concerned about me?"

Gou Dai smiled slightly.

His words carried a hint of flirtation, but were measured, not annoying. After speaking, he felt secretly pleased.

Mei Yingxue felt a wave of nausea hearing him.

Who's concerned about you?

His self-indulgent way is worlds apart from Chen Tang.

Thinking of this, Mei Yingxue's mind stirred, her cheeks flushed slightly, whispering to herself, "What's wrong with me, why did I suddenly think of Chen Tang without reason."

Seeing Mei Yingxue slightly lower her head, seemingly shy, Gou Dai felt even more secretly delighted.

This little girl, after all, inexperienced, still too naive.

Just a word, and she was asked into a blushing, heart-throbbing state.

"Yeah, Brother Gou, what are you doing at the hall today?" A curious young man next to him asked.

Gou Dai said, "Nothing much, just came to see everyone and let folks know I'm alright."

After pausing, Gou Dai said meaningfully, "Of course, if I'm alright, some people might not be so peaceful."

Hearing this, the young men felt a chill in their hearts.

Mei Yingxue also picked up on Gou Dai's implied meaning, gently frowned, and asked, "Gou Dai, what do you mean?"

"Nothing."

Gou Dai smiled and said, "Just speaking casually."

At this moment, someone from the Evil Wolf Gang hurriedly ran over from outside, looking tense and out of breath, saying, "Young Master, there's trouble!"

"Chaos and panic, what a disgrace!"

Gou Dai reprimanded with a shout.

He had already guessed but still acted calm, saying sternly, "What happened, speak slowly."

The person from the Evil Wolf Gang took a deep breath and said, "There was a murder case in the county last night, three people died!"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, instinctively looking at Gou Dai.

Gou Dai maintained a smile, looking unfazed, as if he were not surprised at all.

"I just asked Li Tao to kill Chen Tang, didn't expect he also killed two of Chen Tang's relatives."

"Cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots! Ruthless, I like it!"

Gou Dai thought to himself.

Mei Yingxue seemed to think of something, her face changed, staring at Gou Dai and said sternly, "Gou Dai, was it you..."

Before she could finish, Gou Dai chuckled, interrupting, "Junior Sister Yingxue, this has nothing to do with me, you shouldn't say such things recklessly."

"Young Master, how can it be unrelated, it's highly related!"

The Evil Wolf Gang member said miserably, "Among the three dead, one is Protector Li from our Evil Wolf Gang!"

Gou Dai: "???"

The room fell silent.

Gou Dai's smile froze on his face, for a moment he suspected he had misheard.

The young men were also stunned.

Mei Yingxue didn't react for a moment either.
