A Clash of Gods - Chapter 157

[Chapter 156]

The man who came out of the stairs was not very burly, even a little thin, but his steps were steady, Yang Ning just glanced at him and knew that this man’s martial arts were not weak.

The man was forty-five or six years old, wearing a black cotton robe and a fox fur hat. Standing at the entrance of the stairs, he glanced at the tall-nosed man lying on the ground who did not dare to move. He stepped forward and shouted, “Chief dart, this kid hits people…!”

“Snapped!”

Before the tall-nosed man could speak, he had already received a heavy slap on his face. This slap was so powerful that half of the tall-nosed man’s face swelled up in an instant.

“Chief darthead…!” The tall-nosed man was a little stunned, but he didn’t seem to understand why he slapped himself.

The middle-aged man said coldly: “I asked you to invite Miss Pearl, how did you do it? Since there are guests here, you should discuss it carefully, why should you offend?”

“Chief dart head…!”

“Shut up!” The middle-aged man scolded sharply: “Can I still not know what you are doing? It must be rude and presumptuous here, and then someone will teach you a lesson. Master Yuan is here, he is a well-informed person. Of course, his friends are also very reasonable people, if it wasn’t for you to act nonsense, how would they do it?”

The tall-nosed man lowered his head and dared not speak.

The middle-aged man then strode forward, cupped his hands and smiled: “Young Master Yuan, these useless things have disturbed your Yaxing. I am here to apologize to the two of you.” Raising his hand, a money bag has been thrown into Yuan Rong. Beside me, “This is a little bit of a joke. There are countless girls on the Qinhuai River. This little silver is enough for Young Master Yuan and your expenses tonight.”

Yuan Rong frowned and said, “Boss Ding, what do you mean?”

The middle-aged man was Ding Yitu, the chief escort of the Rising Sun Escort. He smiled and said, “Accepting a few unworthy things caused trouble for the two of you, so this should be regarded as an apology. Besides, Ding has someone from afar today. My friend, he doesn’t come to the capital very much. This time he came here, just in time for tonight’s choice. My friend likes to listen to the piano and have fun. I heard that the girl Pearl has good piano skills, so I want to invite the girl to play it. a song.”

Yang Ning glanced at Zhuzhu, only to see Zhuzhu lowered his head, his delicate body trembled slightly, he didn’t dare to look at Ding Yitu, and was even full of deep fear of Ding Yitu.

Yuan Rong frowned and said, “But I’m here today because I also want to listen to Miss Pearl playing the piano.”

Ding Yitu said with a smile: “Yuan Gongzi is a scholar from a scholarly family. He is well-versed in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is understandable to appreciate Miss Pearl’s piano skills. Moreover, Young Master Yuan boarded the Pearl Girl’s boat before me. It shouldn’t be loved, but my friend won’t stay in the capital for a few days, and he only has some free time tonight, and he may be leaving tomorrow, so…” He took a step forward with a sincere expression on his face. , “I also asked Mr. Yuan to give Ding some face, and let Miss Pearl come over. Tonight, Mr. Yuan and this friend’s expenses will be borne by Mr. Ding. If Mr. Yuan can give Ding this face, it will be more important for another day. Thanks.”

Yuan Rong was a little hesitant, glanced at Yang Ning, and saw that Yang Ning was holding a wine glass, calm and calm, it seemed that Ding Yitu did not exist, and he did not look at Ding Yitu.

“Miss Pearl, can you give Ding this face?” Ding Yitu looked at Pearl, who bowed his head and said nothing, “If you can go, you must be grateful.”

Zhu Zhu finally raised his head, glanced at Yuan Rong, and smiled bitterly: “Yuan Gongzi, Zhu Zhu is disrespectful, I can’t serve you two tonight…!”

Ding Yitu’s mouth curved slightly.

“Miss Pearl, you go to clean up first and dress up more beautifully.” Ding Yitu seemed to be certain that Pearl would go with him, and instructed: “My friend is a very elegant person, don’t be negligent, I will let you People are waiting for you below.” After speaking, he cupped his hands to Yuan Rong and said, “Young Master Yuan, thank you another day!” He turned around and left.

After only taking two steps, I heard a calm voice behind him: “This is the head of the Rising Sun Escort, right?”

Ding Yitu paused at his feet,

He stopped, turned around, and looked at Yang Ning, only to see Yang Ning shaking himself with a glass of wine, very leisurely, and said with a smile: “Yes, Ding Yitu of the rising sun, I haven’t asked your honorable name yet!”

He obviously didn’t know Yang Ning, but since he was with Yuan Rong, he wasn’t a generalist either.

“It doesn’t matter who I am.” Yang Ning said lightly: “I asked you to come here, not to take away the Pearl girl, but to ask you to come and apologize. Your attitude is not bad, and you took the initiative to admit your mistake, so I will let it go. , you can take your subordinates away, remember to go back and educate more, so as not to bother others to discipline you next time.”

Ding Yitu frowned slightly, but his tone was still mild: “This son is right.” After a pause, he said, “But you can also see the attitude of Miss Pearl, she seems to be willing to leave with me.”

“I’m sorry, not to mention whether Miss Pearl is really willing to go with you. Even if she is, I’m afraid you won’t be able to take people away.” Yang Ning reached out and picked up a piece of cake, and said leisurely, “I want to too. Listen to Miss Pearl playing the piano, so you can go now.”

Ding Yitu was slightly startled, and then smiled: “Is this son joking?”

“You look at me, are you joking with you?” Yang Ning suddenly turned his head to look at Ding Yitu with sharp eyes, “I don’t have time to talk to you.” Turning to Pearl, she smiled: “Miss Pearl, you can here we go.”

Pearl frowned slightly and stood on the ground, not knowing what to do for a while.

Ding Yitu’s face was slightly cold, and he said lightly: “I said that I will thank you again tomorrow, and I will cover all the expenses for the two tonight. There are so many girls on the Qinhuai River, you can choose whatever you want.”

“There is only one pearl on the Qinhuai River.” Yang Ning said, “Since there are so many girls on the Qinhuai River, you can choose at will. Don’t disturb my elegance here.”

Ding Yitu laughed suddenly and asked, “What if I have to take her away?”

Yang Ning also smiled and said, “That’s what your subordinates said just now, but you also saw their fate.”

“Are you threatening me?” Ding Yitu said with a smile: “Do you think Ding will be threatened? I admire your courage, but the young man is too arrogant, which is not a good thing.”

“Aren’t you still a young man?” Yang Ning also smiled: “You said you have guests, what does this have to do with us? You said let us give you face, your face is really that big, if I don’t give it , how will you be?”

The corner of Ding Yitu’s eyes twitched slightly, turned to Yuan Rong, and said lightly: “Yuan Gongzi, I gave you face, how do you think this matter will be handled?”

Yuan Rong sat down, raised his glass, and said, “Mr. Ding, I may be able to persuade others, but this person’s temper is too strange. I can’t persuade him what he wants to do.”

Ding Yitu looked at Yang Ning carefully, frowned slightly, Yuan Rong thought he was going to have a seizure, but saw that Ding Yitu just cupped his hands, turned away without saying a word, and the two of his men followed.

Yuan Rong was a little surprised, and said softly: “This is not like Ding Yitu’s temper.”

Yang Ning seemed to be a little surprised, and chuckled: “He is smarter than you think, and he is more calm…!” In his heart, he knew that Ding Yitu was a reckless and brave man. scheming, is not a simple role.

Pearl sighed softly and sat down beside her.

“You seem to be afraid of him.” Yang Ning asked, “Why are you so afraid? Has he hurt you?”

Pearl hesitated for a while, and then forced a smile: “Master Hou drinks a bar. When you arrive at Qinhuai River, you should be happy. In fact, you don’t need to pay attention to other things.”

Yuan Rong also looked at Pearl, frowned and asked, “Pearl, are you hiding something from me?”

“No…no!” Pearl’s eyes flashed and she lowered her head: “Young Master, don’t ask any more questions.”

Yang Ning sighed: “Before you saw him, you were already afraid, and after seeing Ding Yitu, you didn’t even dare to look at him, of course it wasn’t because he was the head of the Rising Sun Escort, and there was a natural backlash behind him. There are other reasons. You don’t want to say it, and I won’t force it.”

“Pearl, Master Xue asked me to take more care of you back then, but for the past two years I…!” Yuan Rong looked sad, “Although I promised him, I didn’t do it. Here, I’ve always wanted to help you, but…!” With a wry smile, he shook his head with a helpless look on his face.

Pearl’s eyes showed a hint of gratitude, and said: “Young master, you have already taken care of a lot, and Pearl is grateful.”

“I know you must have suffered a lot in the past two years, but you never made any demands on me.” Yuan Rong sighed: “I know your intentions, and I know you don’t want to burden me too much, but if you really If there is something unspeakable, you need my help, no matter what, you must tell me.” The voice became cold: “Tell me, what happened?”

Pearl’s delicate body trembled, but her eyes were red. After hesitating for a while, she finally gently pulled up her sleeves. Her skin was very white, and her wrists were as crystal clear as jade. On the top, there were several scars, criss-crossed, shocking.

Yuan Rong’s face changed greatly, and Yang Ning also frowned.

“This… what the hell is going on here?” Yuan Rong suddenly stood up, “Where did the scar on your hand come from?”

Pearl smiled bitterly and said, “Not only on my arm, I have more scars on my body than this one. I can’t see anything where I can see people, and where I can’t see people, it’s all scars.”

A cold light flashed in Yang Ning’s eyes, and he asked, “All of your scars were injured by Ding Yitu? Is this the real reason why you are afraid of him?”

“Just tell me what happened.” Yuan Rong was usually an extremely gentle and refined person, but at this time, he was already furious and his expression was hideous.

Pearl said softly: “Ding Yitu is a beast. He…he takes pleasure in abusing people. Every month he sends someone to pick me up, and then…!” But he didn’t go on. There is no one to complain about the sadness. When I say it at this time, the sadness comes from it, and the tears have already dazzled from the eyes.
