Chapter 221

Wang Dahai and Jiang Huai were old acquaintances.

The two of them met in the army.

Jiang Huai had joined the army long before Wang Dahai.

However, due to his hot-tempered and reckless nature, he had violated military discipline multiple times and was eventually discharged.

It was said that later, he started his own security company, which turned out to be quite successful.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Wang Qingdong grew impatient.

He tugged at Wang Dahai, "Dad, you have to stand up for me! Look at what they did to me, I'm almost disfigured! And my hair, look, it's almost burned off."

It was then that Wang Dahai remembered there was still an unresolved matter.

"Sorry, Jiang Huai, just a small issue. Wait for me over there for a moment, and we'll catch up properly later."

Jiang Huai looked at him with confusion, then at Yun Xiaoxiao and the others, who were being glared at by Wang Dahai.

"Brother Dahai, is there some kind of misunderstanding here?"

He wanted to mediate in good faith.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Wang Qingdong retorted unhappily, "What misunderstanding? They beat me, that's the truth! Dad, you have to avenge me!"

Jiang Huai glanced at Wang Qingdong as if he were an idiot.

If it weren't for Wang Dahai's sake, he wouldn't have bothered saying that.

He didn't say it to save Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.

Rather, he had a gut feeling that Wang Dahai and his group wouldn't be a match for Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.

After all, Wang Dahai was an old acquaintance, and Jiang Huai didn't want to watch him walk into a trap.

But who would have thought that not only was Wang Dahai reckless, but his son was even worse.

Stupid and arrogant.

Wang Dahai, however, still had some sense.

After Jiang Huai's reminder, his anger was somewhat suppressed.

Jiang Huai had been one of the best recruits in several intakes, physically strong, intelligent, and prudent in his actions.

If even he thought there was a misunderstanding, then it was indeed worth clarifying first.

Although Wang Dahai doted on his son, he also knew what kind of person Wang Qingdong was.

Earlier, he had been so enraged by the sight of his son's bruised face that he lost his cool.

But Jiang Huai's arrival disrupted the rhythm, allowing him to calm down.

Moreover, Jiang Huai seemed to know those people.

Out of respect for Jiang Huai, he didn't want to make a move at this moment.

So, he frowned and looked at Wang Qingdong.

"What exactly happened? Tell me clearly, and don't lie!"

His tone was stern.

His already fierce face looked even more intimidating.

Wang Qingdong pouted, glaring angrily at Jiang Huai.

It was this guy meddling in the middle!

"Speak up!" Wang Dahai glared again.

Initially, he didn't think his son was at fault, but now, seeing his son's behavior, Wang Dahai wasn't so sure.

This was exactly how his son would act when he was trying to justify his mistakes.

"I didn't do anything wrong, I just went a bit fast down the slope."

Wang Qingdong pouted, clearly dissatisfied.

"Their speed wasn't slow either, and they almost crashed because of me.

They just started beating me without saying a word, obviously they're the ones at fault!"

"Ha, was that fast? You were practically flying!"

Nie Yizhou scoffed.

"It was a downhill turn, and you were drifting? You think you're in the right?

Even if you had a better attitude afterward and apologized, this matter would have been over.

We wouldn't have held it against you.

After all, anyone can speed sometimes.

But you? Not only did you not admit your mistake, you started cursing and acting tough, as if we were soft targets to be bullied?"

From the conversation and the positions of the vehicles, as well as the skid marks on the ground, Wang Dahai and the others understood what had happened.

He immediately grabbed Wang Qingdong's ear.

"You little brat, I've told you to slow down every time!

This beating wasn't in vain, you deserved it."

Wang Qingdong: !!!

Is this really my dad?

"Don't look at me like that, you're spoiled by your grandparents!" Wang Dahai glared at him.

"If you don't change your temper, you'll suffer a big loss someday."

"And what about you? Your temper isn't any better."

Wang Qingdong muttered under his breath.

"What are you mumbling about?" Wang Dahai's eyes widened.

Wang Qingdong pouted, "Nothing."

"Alright, this matter was my son's fault first, but you've already beaten him, so I think we can call it even, what do you say, everyone?"

Wang Dahai looked at Xiao Feng and Nie Yizhou.

The two shrugged, "Sure."

It was always better to avoid making enemies.

After all, you couldn't just kill someone because you didn't like them.

The son might not be great, but the father seemed reasonable.

Although his initial attitude was a bit off-putting, his protectiveness was understandable.

With the misunderstanding cleared up, the groups continued on their way together.

Their destinations were the same.

They were all heading to the Western Base for a meeting.

"Jiang Huai, do you know them?"

To catch up, Wang Dahai and Jiang Huai got into the same car.

Wang Qingdong was sitting in the passenger seat.

By "them," he meant Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.

Jiang Huai nodded, "I've had a few encounters with them."

"What's their background?" Wang Dahai asked.

Although he sometimes acted impulsively, it didn't mean he was stupid.

If he were, he wouldn't have built a security company into such a large scale.

And after the apocalypse, his strong execution led him to establish a base.

After calming down, he had carefully observed those people.

He had a gut feeling that each of them was extraordinary.

Even the little kid looked unusual.

Auras were a strange thing.

Some people seemed untrustworthy at first glance, while others appeared calm and reserved.

And some people just had an innate, overwhelming presence.

It was like the difference between seeing a rabbit and a tiger.

"Does your base listen to the radio?" Jiang Huai asked.

"Yeah, why?" Wang Dahai was puzzled.

"They're from Yun City Base."

"You mean that Yun City that claims to have some kind of evolution serum and sells supplies?"

"That's right."

"It's them!" Wang Dahai was surprised.

He asked belatedly, "Are they really that strong?"

"Yes, among them, I have no confidence in beating at least three of them."

Jiang Huai spoke frankly.

He didn't feel embarrassed to admit he might not be a match for them.

His attitude was very candid.

This made Wang Dahai even more shocked.

He had long known about Jiang Huai's capabilities.

Being able to manage so many psionics at Rongsheng Base showed that his psionic level must be quite high.

Yet, even he admitted he couldn't beat three of them.

One he could understand.

Three?

Was that too exaggerated?

Were they really that powerful?
