Chapter 38 Hongmen Banquet
I was delighted and quickly followed Mayor Chang to a quiet corner.
I felt out a box of cigarettes from my body and pulled out a cigarette and gave it to Mayor Chang,
saying, "Mayor, take a smoke."
Mayor Chang put out his hand to push away, coldly said, “Thank, I don't smoke."
I was embarrassed and took back my hand, wondering what to speak with him to intercede. Mayor
Chang suddenly said, “Anyway, I thank you. I am grateful to you, but I will not ignore the law. Tell me
what happened the evening before yesterday!"
His voice was calm, but stern suddenly. I was scared, said the words that I had repeated many times in
heart, “Mayor Chang, in fact, I am taking the initiative to admit my mistake today, and it was by chance
on the road to save your wife. The night before yesterday we had a fight with John, but that was
because he kidnapped my girlfriend Amanda."
"Originally I was there alone, then Ben followed, we fought as we were negotiating."
Then I lowered my head and waited for my fate.
Mayor Chang stared at me for a while and then sneered, "Was it really just a fight?"
I shivered, and said firmly, “Yes, it was a fight with a dozen people, afterwards we left."
"Ok." Mayor Chang said so. When I thought I had made it through, he suddenly raised his voice, “Since
it was a kidnap case, why don't you call the police? Do you still have laws in your eyes?"
I was scared and whispered, “Because, because John said that if I dare to report to the police, he will
rape Amanda and then sell her to FLB."
"Have you any proof of that?" Mayor Chang asked me with a straight face.
"No, no." I didn't know what I should say after being asked like that.
"Fool! You should record it and report to the police. Private fights are against the law." Mayor Chang
said.
"Yes, I got it, Mayor Chang." I whispered.
"Fortunately this time the matter is not too serious. Since you all did not report to the police, I will not
pursue your responsibility." Mayor Chang suddenly changed his tone and said to me very gently.
After hearing his words, I felt relieved and said repeatedly, "Thank you, Mayor Chang. Thank you,
Mayor Chang."
Mayor Chang sighed and said, “Although I do not pursue your responsibility, but I do not know whether
Jacob will pursue it. Although according to your statement you are a victim, but you have no evidence."
I became nervous again and asked, "What are we going to do? We've been reckless."
Mayor Chang glanced at me, said to me seriously, “Justin, originally I held grate expectation to you and
Ben, the commercial project your launched is a good project, which will make outstanding contributions
to the economy of the city, but if you keep making troubles, I can't help you. Hereafter no matter what
happen, remember to tell me first, ok? My secretary's phone is on 24 hours."
"As for the matter between you and the Jiang family, I will try my best to mediate, and I think Jacob will
also give me this face. But you must promise me one thing-- no more bloodshed. Do you understand?"
Even though I was stupid, I knew Mayor Chang took us as one of his own. I quickly said, "Yes, Yes, I
promised that I will report to you as soon as possible in the future. What happened the night before
would never happen again.
Mayor Chang smiled with satisfaction and patted me on the shoulder, saying, "You are a nice young
man, good-hearted and not anxious. I am very optimistic about you. Unlike the Jiang family, I heard
before I was transferred that they were one of the top authorities in the city. If John acts fairly, that will
be fine. If he dares to bend the law for selfish ends, I will take care of him."
The domine of these words leak out, the imposing manner of an upper person burst out from his body,
so my head is lower, repeatedly said, “You are right, you are right."
At the same time, I could hear something unusual in his words: he was very unhappy with the Jiang
family and his relationship with Jacob Jiang was probably not very good.
Mayor Chang said to me, "Well, go back home first. I will wait here for my wife to wake up."
I asked with concern, “Take care, Mayer Chang."
Mayor Chang waved his hand and walked away.
I was very excited and got back to the car, but found Sabina was manicuring holding a knife. Because I
was in good mood, I made a joke with her, “I heard from Ben that you are good at using knife, is that
true?
Sabina raised her head and looked at me with a smile, suddenly raised her hand. I just felt a light
across the eyes, and then everything returned to normal, then Sabina was still manicuring, as if nothing
had just happened.
In the face of the eccentric woman I had to drive my car. As I arrived in the villa, I couldn't wait to share
this good news with Ben. Ben patted on my shoulder happily and laughed, “Justin, you are such a
valiant soldier. You have it done so quickly. I thought still it have to struggle."
I smiled, “Well, well, I was just lucky."
Ben smiled, “Luck is also a kind of strength. The woman you saved happened to be the wife of Mayor
Chang. Without this matter, Mayor Chang may not help us." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
I was embarrassed by what he said.
At this time, Ben suddenly shouted, “Justin, you become handsome."
I touched my face and asked blankly, "Do I? Where?"
"Your eyebrows have changed!" Ben said firmly.
I quickly took out the phone to take a look, I found that my two thick eyebrows became so straight, and
the eyebrows were neat.
At the thought of the light flashed in my eyes, my cold sweat came out. I was surprised and looked
back at Sabina. She smiled at me, her slender fingers crossed gently in his throat.
I shuddered.
Ben asked me in concern, “Justin, what is wrong with you? You look bad."
"I felt a little cold,” I said casually. “I will take a hot shower." And then I flew away.
The second day at noon, Ben again received a call from Mayor Chang's secretary, who said that the
mayor will have a talk with John and Jacob, and asked us to send a person to there.
After discussion, I would go there. Ben said he had too much black information, he would get into
trouble if they check on him.
I thought it was just a simple negotiation, but it turned out to be such a humiliation.
