Chapter 36 It Was a Stretch
“What?” I was surprised, since the man with scar on face said the same thing to me as Ben. What was
going on?
"Justin, to tell you the truth, I am afraid that my right hand is going to be useless, and there would be
many things in the future that I cannot do. I was going to take my men on the right path this time, but it
occurred to me and my old enemies would come and trouble me if they found out it."
"Justin, I can only rely on you now." Ben said lightly.
After listening to Ben’s words, I felt sour in nose. His hand became useless because of me. I raised my
head and said to him firmly, “Rest assured, you will be fine unless I am death."
Ben shouted in surprise, “So you agreed?"
"Well..." I was a little embarrassed, scratched my head and asked, “But I only know how to sell
massage sticks other than anything else. What should I do with your men? Wouldn’t be taking
protection money? It's against the law."
Ben said with a smile, "We are talking to Geoffrey Chang about demolition? As long as our business
district is built, we can collect the rent."
"So," I asked, "you are going to do business on the right way?"
"Ben sighed and said, “Yes, I am tired and afraid. I had 16 friends before but now only 8 are left.
Fortunately, Now I have got enough money. But we should get rid of John Jiang the first."
I lowered my head to think carefully for a while: If I refuse Ben, he would be sad. After all, he hurt his
arm for me, and he only hoped I care about it.
But If I said yes, I would be in troubles. Ben said he had a lot of enemies who might seek his revenge.
How could I protect him?
After thinking, I raised my eyes and said to Ben, “Ben, I can agree your request, if someone seeks your
revenge, I will be the first to block in front of you. But we can't bully people or harm people for money.
You know that's the kind of people I've hated most in my life."
Ben smiled, gently patted my shoulder and said, “It is not that terrible. Now it is the money society,
everything can be settled with money, so we have to earn more money. If my enemies come, we can
pay with money.
Ben said in a funny way. I laughed and said, “Right, we can pay them with money."
Before I knew it, I had got something in my heart that I have never had before. It was called ambition.
The matter was settled. I and Ben seemed to be relaxed. I asked Ben, “Ben, what is Sabina? Is she
your girlfriend? She looks cold."
Ben craned his neck to look out, then said to me mysteriously, "Don't underestimate that woman. Do
you know what her name in Southeast Asia?"
I heard Ben said about it for the first time, so I became excited, “What is it?"
"Ghost killer -- the first knife in Southeast Asia." Ben said with a face of admiration.
"Fuck.” I was surprised that she had a same name as that in martial arts book. Southeast Asia was big,
how dared she consider her the first?
Ben found my suspicion, immediately he said, “You don't believe it? Have you ever heard of knives
splitting bullets? I've seen this woman chop off bullets with a knife."
This was more outrageous, I seriously doubt Ben liked this woman so he was talking nonsense.
Ben was dejected and said despondently, “Forget it. No one will believe it unless you see it with your
own eyes. Anyway you cannot offend her, she is your bodyguard I hired with a lot of money."
I nodded and said, "I see. I have always been stingy. Since you hired her with a lot of money, I will ask
her to do a lot.”
Ben smiled, “I am right, you are talented to be a boss."
In the evening, Ben said he wanted everyone to get together and he wanted to eat hot pot.
I was the only one who could walk. I went outside to buy a lot of vegetables and then entered the
kitchen, but I did not expect that the indifferent Sabina rolled up her sleeves to help, I quickly refused, This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
“No, no."
But Sabina said nothing but help me chop the meat. When I thought of her nickname, I couldn't help
peeped at her. God, she was as fast as lightning, the blade was basically connected into a piece. Soon
a big piece of beef was finished cutting, and then she began to cut other meat.
I dared not look but made my soup.
I was shocked again when she served the plate. The beef was thinner than a piece of paper and the
size and shape were exactly the same. I couldn't believe how she had managed to cut the irregular
piece of beef.
A group of person was having a meal happily. In addition to inarticulate Sabina, several men were
laughing. Ben announced that I was the boss in the future, his men seemed to have received the
message in advance, and they were not surprised, but stood up to give me a toast. The patted their
chest and promised that they would do a good job.
I have been infected by their heroism, stood up and raised my glass, “Thank you for your respect. To
be honest I was a salesman, I have no as much as experiences as you. But I can guarantee as long as
I can make money later, I will share with you equally, I will never take a penny more!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
All the people were enthusiastic to clap. At this time a sudden phone sounded, Ben answered it and his
expression changed.
We looked at each other, and I asked him, "What's wrong? What's going on?"
Ben said helplessly, "It was Mayor Chang's secretary, saying that John’s brother Jacob Jiang had also
been transferred to our city to be the vice mayor. When Jacob Jiang heard that his nephew had been
arrested, he was very angry and said that if he knew who framed his nephew, he would make him
disappear from S City."
"Mayor Chang also received the news about the incident the night before yesterday. He was very angry
and said that if we continue to disregard the law, he would give up us and do it immaculately."
Everyone was silent because we knew something was wrong. We had already spent a lot of money
into the business district. If they kicked us out of S city now, we would lose all our money.
