Jiang Yuanmao's sneer pulled Lu Jing out of his thoughts.
However, he did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he first looked at the head of the Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce, then at the few martial arts people around him who were about to make a move, and then said while stroking the black cat's back.
"Oh, this raccoon slave does belong to Mr. Feng. I didn't discipline him strictly and it hurt Jiang Huishou and Brother Gu. As the master, I will apologize to you two for its fault."
Gu Caiwei shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter, I was just scratched anyway."
After speaking, her eyes fell on the black cat in Lu Jing's arms, a look of doubt flashed in her eyes, and she opened her mouth to say something.
But she didn't expect that Jiang Yuanmao on the other side had already taken a step ahead of her and said again, "It's just to make amends, isn't it?"
Unlike Gu Caiwei, the leader of the Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce was seriously injured. The black cat's bite was very solid, and the two canine teeth directly pierced two bloody holes in his arm.
The maid on the side had already found a handkerchief to bandage him, and someone hurriedly went to invite the doctor.
Jiang Yuanmao's second son advised Jiang Yuanmao to take a rest first, but Jiang Yuanmao waved him away. Then he looked into Lu Jing's eyes and said, "I didn't have time to ask for advice just now. I wonder what kind of business you are doing?"
"I'm just a guest." Lu Jing said.
"A guest?" Jiang Yuanmao was a little surprised. He didn't seem to expect that a guest would appear among the guests at his birthday banquet. Then he looked at his eldest son who was in charge of welcoming the guests.
The latter quickly walked up to him and whispered, "Dad, this man followed Wang Dianbo into the door. I thought he was Wang Dianbo's bodyguard at the time, but now it seems that the two of them have nothing to do with each other. He is He sneaked in behind Wang Dianbu on purpose."
It turned out to be a freeloader.
After learning that Lu Jing had no background, Jiang Yuanmao's last scruples disappeared. He had no choice but to do so. There were too many powerful people in the capital, so he had to find out the details of the opponent before taking action to avoid accidentally kicking the iron plate.
Jiang Yuanmao was able to get his business to the point where it is today, so naturally he would not be a reckless person, and this was also the reason why he was bitten by a cat, but still managed not to have an attack until now.
But now Jiang Yuanmao has reached the end of his endurance, and there is no need to endure it anymore.
This guy surnamed Feng just came to his restaurant to eat for free. Instead of just staying on the first floor, he swaggered up to the second floor and then let a cat hurt someone. He simply didn't take Jiang Yuanmao seriously.
So Jiang Yuanmao also stretched out his hand and raised two fingers.
Lu Jing knew that Jiang Yuanmao's two fingers were not pointed up to him, but to the master of the Changle Gang in the tea house across the street.
Jiang Yuanmao's third son had already sneaked downstairs while all the guests were looking here, found the group of bodyguards responsible for maintaining order, and asked them to go upstairs to help.
These bodyguards were also the first to arrive. They were all wearing weapons. There were more than a dozen of them. They were all third-rate masters. They looked quite capable. Four of them protected Jiang Yuanmao, while the rest Then Lu Jing was surrounded.
Seeing this scene, Gu Caiwei felt a rather ridiculous feeling in her heart.
She came to the banquet tonight with the idea of causing trouble, but she didn't expect that when things developed now, a guy who was more capable of causing trouble than her would appear.
So much so that Jiang Yuanmao couldn't care about her anymore.
However, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but feel a little nervous at this time. She didn't bring any escorts when she came to trouble this time, because she knew that no matter what Jiang Yuanmao did in private, he always had to show respect and behave in public.
Especially in front of so many people, it is impossible to really tear off your skin and attack a woman like her.
On the contrary, if she brought a guard, it would give Jiang Yuanmao a target, and he would probably humiliate her guard to beat her. Gu Caiwei herself didn't care, but she didn't want Cui to be humiliated for nothing.
So I just did it myself.
But now she felt a little regretful that she didn't let Mr. Cui come with her.
Because there is Feng Jiulang beside her. The other party was a visitor from the North, and he probably had done many things like killing people and seizing treasures. His hands were covered in blood, and he was carefree, so there were no taboos in his actions.
When the people named Feng and Jiang Yuanmao take action later, if they are defeated, there is no guarantee that they will not think of using her as a hostage.
But this was what Jiang Yuanmao wanted. It was not convenient for Jiang Yuanmao to attack her directly, but if he accidentally killed her by borrowing Feng Jiulang's hand, and then captured Feng Jiulang and sent him to prison, killing two birds with one stone, Jiang Yuanmao would be dreaming. Everyone will laugh out loud.
Thinking of this, Gu Caiwei wanted to put some distance between herself and Lu Jing.
Although she also knew that such a distance could only be reached in the blink of an eye for a martial arts master, she could still seek some psychological comfort.
It's just that Jiang Yuanmao's people have surrounded the table at this time, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, they have also surrounded her inside. She can't leave even if she wants to.
Jiang Yuanmao felt relieved when he saw that Lu Jing had been "controlled", and said, "I would like to teach my friends that the capital is not the north. The emperor's feet are a place where rules must be observed."
"Is there a rule in this capital that there are more people than there are people?" Lu Jing looked at the group of bodyguards surrounding him and asked curiously.
"These people are just in case. What I'm telling you today is the rule that if you make a mistake, you have to pay the price. You are not on the guest list, but you sneaked into the restaurant. This is a mistake. You allowed the raccoon slave to commit murder and hurt others. , This is a second mistake, but since you are from a foreign country, I won’t embarrass you.
"Keep this raccoon slave, then get out of the capital completely, go back to your northern land to dig ginseng, and never come back again. If you can do it, I will let you go today." Jiang Yuanmao said calmly.
"That's so well said," Lu Jing couldn't help but applaud, "As expected of the leader, it's well-reasoned. The only flaw is that you always tell others the rules. If you can tell some rules to yourself, I think this morning I don’t have the shame to withhold Gu Xiongtai’s batch of goods.”
Gu Caiwei was a little surprised when she heard this. It seemed that she did not expect that Feng Jiulang, who had met by chance, would stand up for her. Although the other party only used this matter to ridicule Jiang Yuanmao, he was the only person in the restaurant tonight who was willing to say a fair word for her.
Gu Caiwei couldn't bear to see him being bullied by Jiang Yuanmao's people later, so she persuaded in a low voice, "If a good man doesn't suffer the immediate consequences, why do you have to fight them?"
"It's none of your business," Lu Jing waved his hand, "What I hate most in my life is people who say one thing but don't mean it in private. Today I have to have a good argument with this Jiang Hui leader."
Gu Caiwei shook her head when she heard this. If reasoning was really useful, then she still wouldn't be able to get her batch of goods back. And judging from Jiang Yuanmao's attitude, it was obvious that he had no intention of explaining any more reasons to Lu Jing. .
