Wei Zhao took the rice without ceremony and began devouring it like a whirlwind. In the blink of an eye, a table of rare delicacies and two bowls of rice had all gone into Wei Zhao's belly. "Not bad, I suppose. Not as good as braised pork," Wei Zhao said, patting his full stomach and letting out a satisfied belch.
"..." Zhong Yongliang nearly rolled his eyes. Had he known, he would have just treated this pauper to braised pork. All that money wasted for nothing, and not even a word of thanks.
"All right, let us get to business. Fed and watered, time to beat someone up." Wei Zhao glanced at Zhong Yongliang.
"Beat someone up?" Zhong Yongliang was taken aback, unsure what Wei Zhao meant. He gave a dry laugh. "Chief Wei Zhao jests. The business at hand, well..."
Zhong Yongliang hemmed and hawed, but inwardly he was frantic. Wei Zhao had eaten far too fast. The original plan had been to lay out a spread of seafood and have the two of them drink for a while, which should have stalled for an hour or two at least. Yet Wei Zhao had finished the whole battle in under twenty minutes, wiping everything out. What was he to do with the time that followed?
Zhong Yongliang could only pray that Black Panther would hurry things along, wrap it up quickly. Just as he was praying, the phone in his pocket buzzed twice. Zhong Yongliang was overjoyed. He pulled out the phone and took a look, only to find written on it: "Fake IDs, guns for sale, loan sharking, revenge services, best prices..."
Motherf—! Zhong Yongliang cursed inwardly. What garbage. If you people could really get revenge, I would not be so troubled.
"Do you actually have something or not?" Wei Zhao was growing impatient. Zhong Yongliang was surely playing some trick, and he kept glancing at his phone, clearly waiting for some signal.
"I do, I do!" Zhong Yongliang had no choice but to say, "Actually, the thing is this—Zou Ruoming likes Tang Yun. You know that, right?"
"Cut the nonsense. Get to the point," Wei Zhao said directly, without answering.
