Chapter 293 Pretentious Brother Bing
Xiao Bing defeated Qin Long within a second.
Some of the spectators’ became excited. They had been guessing who would win and nearly no one expected Xiao Bing to win, except for Su Xiaoxiao and her friends. No one could have imagined the result to be opposite when Qin Long, from whom they had expected so much, was sent hurtling by a single blow.
Everyone from the Taekwondo Club gasped.
While everyone looked on in surprise, Qin Long clambered to his feet, covering his nose with his hands. “That doesn’t count. I was not even prepared!”
Xiao Bing replied, “Fine. Get yourself prepared and we’ll do it again.”
Qin Long then hurriedly walked to the side to stanch the bloodflow. His nose hurt badly. But when he thought of Su Xiaoxiao, he wanted to fight again as though he didn’t feel any pain.
The President of the Taekwondo Club was a sturdy man who looked like he was in his twenties’. He looked at Qin Long and said, “His punch is fast. You need to be careful.”
Qin Long answered fiercely, “Don’t worry. I was just careless. I will beat the crap out of him this time.”
Other members seemed to have no doubt about that. “Brother Long, he won’t be your match.” They encouraged him.
“You’ll beat him.”
After Qin Long’s wound was attended too, he walked over to Xiao Bing and cast him a vicious glance. “That was a good move, attacking me while I was off guard. I merely intended to teach you a lesson. But now I’m going to break the hand you used to strike me.
Xiao Bing nodded and said, “Okay!”
The spectators who were taken aback by Xiao Bing’s fast punch started thinking that Xiao Bing might have taken advantage of Qin Long’s carelessness. So they paid attention to the duel again.
Qin Long nodded at the referee, indicating he was ready. The referee put the whistle in his mouth and blew it. Qin Long put his hands before his chest and began sauntering about. He delivered strikes with his two legs, but Xiao Bing dodged them. Then he flailed his hands aggressively and bellowed, “I’m ready. Come on, punch me in the nose again!”
First, Qin Long’s eyes only saw some sort of a dazzle, then he felt the agonizing pain on his nose, which also knocked him out. The impact of the latest blow sent him flying further this time. His nose was completely broken now. Xiao Bing surmised that it would at least take 2 or 3 months to recover.
A hush fell over the building. They could not quite believe that the same thing happened twice. If Xiao Bing was lucky or took advantage of his foe’s carelessness the first time, then what excuse could it be this time?
A smile touched Su Xiaoxiao’s lips. From the moment Xiao Bing walked in, she felt very safe. Seeing Xiao Bing waving his hands victoriously, a grin bloomed on her face. Then she said, “Look how haughty you are.”
Su Xiaoxiao was a renowned cold beauty in the campus. People would gape if they saw Su Xiaoxiao smiling. But no one was paying any attention to her anymore. Because the star of today could only be Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing took a look at his fist, shook his head and sighed, “No one has asked me to do that in so many years. Since you asked me to punch you in the face, I had to do it, because I’m always an obedient man.
Some began to laugh.
Xiao Man covered her face with her hands and said with fascination, “Jesus, he’s so handsome. I love him. Why are you not talking?”
Her friend swallowed and said, “Can I compete with you to get this man?”
“Damn. Are we sisters or not? I liked him first.”
The other girl smiled awkwardly, “I was kidding. How can I think to get the man you’ve targeted?”
“Humph. No wonder they all say one’s BFF is her biggest rival. I should ask him to stay away from you.”
The other girl could not help laughing, “You sound like you and he are already together.”
Xiao Man replied timidly, “It’s just a matter of time.”
While Xiao Man and her friend were starry-eyed over Xiao Bing, Chan Yuanyuan and Li Tingting were also talking about him. Xiao Bing headed towards Su Xiaoxiao while Qin Long left with the help of the club members. He shot Xiao Bing a glance, the dread and hatred plain in his eyes. He will never forget the horror and humiliation he was feeling at the moment.
The President of the Taekwondo club stood in Xiao Bing’s way. Xiao Bing glanced at him and asked apathetically, “What?”
The man cupped his hands before his chest and said, “I’m Li Sikai, a senior student and the President of the Taekwondo Club. You beat Qin Long, which is an insult to us. We will return it.”
Li Sikai had to say that because if he didn’t, his club would be looked down upon and become a joke in the campus. So he had to force himself to utter these words.
The spectators began discussing. Some wanted to see how it would play out while others murmured curses. Seemingly, Su Xiaoxiao stood up and asked, “Mr. President, my brother fought fairly. He won and you want to challenge him. If he wins again, will there be another one who wants to challenge him again? Is that the rule of your club.”
Li Sikai said, “It’s about the honor of our Taekwondo Club. I won’t fight myself. Including myself, there are 39 club members. We’ve shared weal and woe. We will fight Mr. Xiao together, whether he’s alone or backed by 1000 men. How does that sound?” His face reddened uncontrollably.
Su Xiaoxiao looked cold as she flared, “Shameless.”
Chen Yuanyuan and Li Wanting also called him an impudent man. Soon the building got noisy. Most of the students began taunting Li Sikai while some heckled him.
Xiao Bing rubbed his nose and said awkwardly, “It doesn’t seem fair. Even if I can bring some friends with me, we won’t stand a chance, because you are all professionals.”
Everyone scolded Li Sikai because the club claimed that Xiao Bing should have a fight with all of them. The other reason was that, normally a person would only ask 5 or 6 friends to come to his aid. Some would not even come if they find out it was about fighting. Even if he had friends who were willing to come, how could they compare to these Taekwondo practitioners?
Li Sikai forced himself to sound stern, “If Mr. Xiao does not have any friends, you will have to fight all 39 of us alone.”
After saying that, Li Sikai’s face turned redder and the other members felt terribly ashamed. But Xiao Bing was the one they hated most. They intended to vent their anger on Xiao Bing later.
Xiao Bing said awkwardly, “Al… Alright. But I do have a few friends. Whether they’ll come or not, I will still ask them. Just wait for a few minutes. I’ll call them one by one.”
They all thought Xiao Bing was just desperate and didn’t want to lose face. They guessed that maybe one or two of his friends might come to help him. They felt that was the most Xiao Bing could do.
Xiao Bing took out his phone and called a number. Soon the phone was through.
The voice on the phone sounded surprised and elated, “Brother Bing, What… what can I do for you?”
Xiao Bing cleared his throat and said, “Half-ear, I’m in the Hei Province Normal University. I need you to do a little favor for me.”
“Boss, just tell me what I need to do. I’m always yours to command.”
“My sister is a student here. Someone’s been bothering her lately. After I beat the guy up, his friends stood up for him. They all plan to beat me. So I want you to come here to help me. I can’t face them alone!”
The members of the club all smirked when they heard what Xiao Bing said, thinking that his friends would be beaten up as well.
“I understand, Brother Bing. Where are you? I’ll be coming.”
“I’m at the campus gym. There are a lot of them. I’m kind of scared now. I might be beaten black and blue if you are late.”
“I understand. Brother, I should hang up. I’m coming.”
Xiao Bing hung up with satisfaction. After the Peony Fairy died, Xiao Bing became the actual ruler in the north before he took over Master Hou’s place. But he didn’t have any interest in the underground world. So he chose several people to rule this place together and this Half-ear was one of them.
Though he sounded nice today on the phone, Half-ear was also a cruel man. He was called so because someone cut off one of his ears when he became a gangster. But he was more brutal than his opponent. He stabbed his foe 4 or 5 times. He would have been arrested if the Peony Fairy had not taken him in.
He seemed excited after he hung up. He was a little thin. He was not tall, half-eared, clad in a shirt, black-skinned and having scars all over his arms. One look at him and we know he was a ruthless man.
While on the phone, he was having fun in the Billiards Room with some of his men. Now he dropped the club, pounded on the table and bellowed, “Silence! We have some work to do.”
Dozens of men gathered around.
Half-ear said, “I’ll be taking you to Brother Bing, our Boss. He is in trouble and needs our help.”
The crowd shouted in excitement when they heard that Xiao Bing needed them.
Half-ear grinned, “But don’t worry. Brother Bing said that we’re there to make up the numbers. Even the mighty Long Family was destroyed by Brother. What bunch of students can bully Brother Bing? The point is not fighting them but help Brother Bing to be pretentious. Come closer. I’ll tell you the exact plan…”
