Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Brother Alliance Suffers a Heavy Blow

The next day, an article by an author named ”Yang Wei” in the ”Zhonghai News” caused a sensation throughout Zhonghai City!

The article, titled ”Old Forces Struggle, Former Leader of Brother Alliance Kneels and Admits Defeat!”, circulated not only in the newspapers but also online.

Moreover, the photo accompanying the article was the one where Sun Quan knelt before Murong Bei!

As traditional old forces in the Eastern District of Zhonghai City, both Brother Alliance and Murong Group had very high profiles.

However, unlike Brother Alliance, Murong Group had given up some business dealings with the underworld years ago, and moreover, had cooperated with the police to bring down some criminal organizations.

Therefore, one could say that the current Murong Group was the representative of the legitimate forces in the Eastern District, entirely different from Brother Alliance, which had only been trying to legitimize itself in the past two years.

Now this piece of news had come out, instantly reigniting people’s interest in the gang rivalry of more than a decade ago in the Eastern District. The police, too, started to take notice of Brother Alliance once again.

Smack!

Within the Sun Family’s large courtyard, Sun Quan slapped Sun Zhengfei furiously!

The proud Sun Zhengfei, faced with his father’s rage, didn’t dare utter a word.

”What a fine job you’ve done!”

Sun Quan’s face flushed with anger as he glared at Sun Zhengfei and said, ”You still dream of dominating Zhonghai when you’ve failed in just the East District, losing all of Sun Family’s face!”

”Dad, I was wrong... I didn’t investigate thoroughly beforehand, and I didn’t expect the Murong Family to be so resourceful. Not only do they have an impressive bodyguard, but even that crippled old man Murong Bei’s abilities were beyond our expectation. This time, Brother Alliance has fallen into the hands of the Murong Family, and I am willing to take full responsibility.”

”Take full responsibility? How will you take full responsibility?”

Sun Quan snatched up the ”Zhonghai News” from the table and threw it in front of Sun Zhengfei, yelling angrily, ”Now the whole city of Zhonghai knows about this! Not to mention Brother Alliance’s disgrace, the police have started targeting us for searches. How will you take responsibility for that!?”

”Your injuries will take a short time to heal, Zhengfei’s legs are crippled, and Tianba is also severely injured. Can you afford to take this responsibility?”

Sun Quan’s consecutive questions made Sun Zhengfei’s cheeks twitch, his face red and ears burning as he hung his head, no longer daring to speak.

”I’ve retired, and you still can’t give me peace of mind!”

Sun Quan was at a loss for words with rage, ”You even brought a coffin to celebrate longevity, what a ludicrous idea you had!”

”How did your grandfather advise you? Don’t make enemies with the Murong Group, ’don’t disturb the water in another’s well’, not to provoke the Murong Group, yet you had to disobey?”

”Now, you can handle the rest of this mess on your own. I’ve retired and don’t want to deal with it anymore. As for Zhengfei, from now on, let him step down from Brother Alliance. Give him a sinecure, he will have to live like that for the rest of his life.”

Towards the end, Sun Quan was almost covering his face.

It would have been manageable if he had been able to defeat Murong Bei, but the key point was that he was no match for Murong Bei and was at least one level below him. With this difference in strength, Brother Alliance could only concede to Murong Group.

Moreover, Brother Alliance was currently weakened and under police scrutiny, unable to look after itself.

”Dad, as I said, I will take full responsibility for this matter.”

Sun Zhengfei’s gaze became resolute again, his eyes filled with a ruthless determination, ”Leave the rest to me. I will handle it.”

”What are you going to do? Zhengfei, I warn you, don’t think about seeking revenge! There are rules in the underworld, honor the bet and accept the loss. If you resort to dirty tricks for revenge, be careful not to destroy the whole Brother Alliance!”

Sun Quan knew his son well. Sun Zhengfei would stop at nothing to achieve his goals and could very well take a dark path.

But now that Sun Zhengfei was in his forties, besides warning and advising, Sun Quan had no other options.

”Brother Alliance still dominates the Eastern District. Moreover, Dad, I promise you here and now that in the future, Brother Alliance will also be the dominating force in the entire Zhonghai City! I’m going back.”

”Zhengfei! Zhengfei, don’t be rash! Come back here!”

After finishing his words, Sun Zhengfei ignored Sun Quan’s roaring and walked straight out. Behind him, in the room, Sun Quan stomped his feet in fury.

...

In the morning, at Starry Sky Café.

Zhou Yang and Qin Tian, each with a cup of coffee, sat at their usual spot, quietly sipping and chatting.

Of course, both of them would occasionally glance towards the inner room.

”I’m saying, you’ve planned this from the start, haven’t you? This spot gives the best view of the inside,” Qin Tian said with a chuckle, speaking softly as he looked at Jin Xing busily tied up with an apron.

”That’s right, if not with a purpose, why else would I come here every day just to read by myself?” Zhou Yang replied in a low voice, looking at Jin Xing inside, ”Hey, I said Dragon King, didn’t you say you’d help me chase after her? So, what’s up, is there anything I need to cooperate with?”

”What’s the rush? It’s only the second day, there’s plenty of time. Let me prepare a bit,” Qin Tian said.

Changing the subject, he asked, ”Speaking of which, do you know her well? I see you’re so smitten with her.”

”Of course I am,” Zhou Yang proudly said, ”I’ve got to know everything that I should.”

”Then let me ask you,” Qin Tian smiled, ”what color does Jin Xing like?”

”Umm... it seems to be white.”

”What does she like to eat?”

”That... she seems to like drinking coffee.”

”Does she add sugar to her coffee?”

”Hss... seems like she doesn’t.”

”Do you know who she has in her family?”

”Not really... I didn’t have the nerve to ask, heh heh.”

”What’s her bra size?”

”Huh?”

”I’m asking what her bust size is.”

”Damn...”

Upon hearing Qin Tian’s question, Zhou Yang was dumbfounded and stared at him, ”Why do you need to know that? Why would I tell you?”

Zhou Yang looked on guard.

”I’m just asking to see how much you know about her,” Qin Tian said.

”Damn, that’s too pervy... Do I really need to find that out? How am I supposed to know that about her? Should I just go up to her and ask, ’Hey, what’s your bra size?’ At that rate, I probably won’t be able to come here for coffee again because she’d definitely give me a thumping every time she sees me,” Zhou Yang said somewhat red-faced and in a low voice. Awkward!

”Alright, you don’t need to explain. So you’re saying you don’t know,” Qin Tian said. ”The questions I asked you just now, all your answers were uncertain. And you say you’ve got to know everything that you should?”

At this, Zhou Yang was at a loss for words and stammered, ”I mean, what I can... what I can find out... I’ve... I’ve found out...”

”With the way you’re getting to know her, it’d be strange if you managed to chase after any girl,” Qin Tian said with exasperation. ”To pursue a girl, you need to know both yourself and the enemy. Only then can you be sure of victory, understand?”

”Easy for you to say...”

Zhou Yang was even more speechless. It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about getting to know her better, but somehow, every time he talked to Jin Xing, he would get nervous involuntarily, and before finishing his words, he’d pretend to be composed and walk away.
