Reborn in Hong Kong Island, I can see loyalty

Chapter 512 Shui Ling is completely conquered by Ye Haoxuan

Ye Haoxuan took a drag of his cigarette, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and got straight to the point: "Sister Ling just returned to Hong Kong Island. I'm afraid Camel won't let you have peace and quiet, will he?"

When camels were mentioned, Shui Ling's smile faded and her eyes turned cold: "He'd love for me to never come back."

She picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and slowly said, "Back then, I left Hong Kong Island because he forced me to. Now that I'm back, he definitely thinks I'm here to take over his territory and has long considered me a thorn in his side."

"Are Wang Tai and Da Dong just pawns he used to deal with you?" Ye Haoxuan pressed.

"I'm afraid it's not just targeting me." Shui Ling sneered. "That old bastard Camel has huge ambitions. He's purging the old Dongxing gang and gathering overseas experts because he wants to turn Dongxing into his personal fiefdom, and even wants to annex the territory of other gangs."

She looked up at Ye Haoxuan, her eyes sharp: "Mr. Ye, you are now the behind-the-scenes controller of Hung Hing, and Camel has long regarded you as its biggest rival. This time, sending Wang Tai and his men to ambush you is a test of your bottom line."

Ye Haoxuan held a cigarette between his fingers, his eyes calm: "I know. He wants to play, and I'll play along to the end."

“I naturally believe Mr. Ye’s confidence.” Shui Ling smiled, her tone slightly probing, “However, Dongxing is currently teeming with experts. Besides Zuo Wang Tai and Da Dong, the Four Tigers of Dongxing and my few unworthy disciples, he has also poached several experts from overseas. You must be careful.”

"Thank you for the reminder, Sister Ling." Ye Haoxuan nodded. "However, I'm not short of people. I'm well-equipped now. If he wants to play, I can play with him."

His words were calm, yet they exuded confidence.

At that moment, the waiter brought in dishes and red wine, breaking the atmosphere in the private room.

Shui Ling poured some red wine, raised her glass to Ye Haoxuan, and said, "Mr. Ye, I'd like to toast you. Thank you for gracing us with your presence, and thank you for not looking down on me, a 'washed-up' former member of Tung Sing."

"Sister Ling, you're too kind." Ye Haoxuan raised his glass and clinked it with his. "Sister Ling's abilities are well-known in the Hong Kong underworld. It's my honor to have dinner with you."

The two clinked glasses and each took a sip.

The red wine was rich and smooth, sliding down my throat and gradually bringing a warm feeling.

Shui Ling put down her wine glass and offered Ye Haoxuan a piece of grouper: "Try this, it's very fresh."

"Thank you, Sister Ling." Ye Haoxuan didn't stand on ceremony. He took a bite and found it to be fresh, tender, and flavorful.

The atmosphere at the dinner table gradually warmed up.

Shui Ling told him a lot about her experiences overseas and also talked about her past in Dongxing.

She spoke wittily, occasionally displaying the boldness of a江湖人 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world), yet retaining the delicacy of a woman, which allowed Ye Haoxuan to understand her better.

“Back when I was in Dongxing, I had quite a few brothers under my command.” Shui Ling’s eyes were filled with nostalgia. “Later, Camel forced me out, and my brothers scattered like monkeys when the tree fell. Some were eliminated, some retired, and of my ten apprentices, seven were bought off by Camel. Now I only have three apprentices left…”

She didn't finish her sentence, and the desolation in her voice was obvious.

Suddenly, a muffled thud came from outside the private room, followed by the clatter of tables and chairs colliding and shouts of cursing rising and falling. The sounds of fighting were clearly audible even through the door.

Shui Ling's expression changed drastically, and she stood up abruptly: "It's Da Dong and the others!"

Ye Haoxuan's eyes darkened. As he put down his wine glass and stood up, he said to Shui Ling in a deep voice:

"Stay here and don't move."

Before he finished speaking, he had already opened the door to the private room.

The scene outside was chaotic; most of the tables and chairs in the restaurant's main hall were overturned, and broken pieces of bowls and plates were scattered all over the floor.

Ah Hu and Ah Bao stood back to back defending each other, their bodies already bearing several wounds, and their breathing was rapid.

Despite a deep, bone-revealing gash on his arm, his sleeves were soaked in blood, yet he still gritted his teeth and swung his fist.

Sihai was entangled by two men in black and couldn't break free at all.

Ninth Sister's dagger lay to the side as she was forced to retreat repeatedly by a burly man.

The ones besieging them were Zuo Wangtai, Da Dong, and Shui Ling's five disciples: Wu Shang, Shang Tian, ​​Chang San, Liu Liang, and Za Ba.

"Where is that bitch Shui Ling hiding? Tell her to come out and face her death!" Zuo Wangtai shouted shrilly as he stood to the side giving orders.

Da Dong then took matters into his own hands, his fists whistling through the air, each punch putting Ah Hu in grave danger.

"You're courting death!" Ye Haoxuan shouted, his figure darting out like a ghost.

He ignored everyone else and charged straight at Da Dong, who was suppressing Ah Hu.

Just as Da Dong punched Ah Hu in the chest, he felt a chill on the back of his neck and a tremendous force struck him.

Before he could react, Ye Haoxuan had already grabbed the back of his neck and slammed him down! With a muffled thud, Da Dong's face slammed hard against the corner of the table next to him, blood gushing from his nose instantly, his head buzzing, and his body collapsing to the ground, where Ye Haoxuan stepped on his back, rendering him unable to move.

This series of actions was as fast as lightning, taking no more than two seconds.

Everyone present was stunned, and the sounds of fighting instantly stopped.

Shui Ling's five disciples reacted, and three of them exchanged glances before simultaneously throwing punches at Ye Haoxuan:

"Dare to interfere in Dongxing's affairs? You're asking for death!"

Ye Haoxuan's eyes were cold. He didn't move his feet, but dodged the first person's fist by turning to the side. At the same time, he reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, twisting it gently.

With a crisp "crack," accompanied by the man's scream, his wrist was snapped.

Immediately afterwards, he kicked the second man in the stomach, sending him flying like a broken sack, crashing into the wall and losing consciousness.

The last person turned pale with fright, stopped in his tracks, and was about to back away when Ye Haoxuan reached out and grabbed his shoulder with a slight force.

"Ah—" Another scream rang out as the man's shoulder dislocated.

In the blink of an eye, Da Dong and three members of the Dongxing Ten Heroes were subdued.

King Tai was trembling with fear; he hadn't expected Ye Haoxuan's skills to be so terrifying.

When Ye Haoxuan's icy gaze swept over him again, he shivered and dared not linger any longer, screaming:

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

The remaining people, as if waking from a dream, dragged their injured companions and fled the Cantonese restaurant in a disheveled state.

The fight was completely over.

Ah Hu and Ah Bao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to Ye Haoxuan's side:

"Brother Xuan!"

The three men with the thick eyebrows also came over and bowed to Ye Haoxuan, saying, "Thank you for saving us, Mr. Ye!"

Ye Haoxuan waved his hand and said calmly, "Treate the wounds and clean this place up."

"Yes!"

Shui Ling stood at the door of the private room and witnessed the whole process.

She looked at Ye Haoxuan's tall and straight back, her eyes filled with shock, admiration, and a hint of undisguised fervor.

He's so handsome, and his hands are so strong too!

Ye Haoxuan's unfathomable skill had completely captivated her.
