The Bustling Harp Restaurant (2) (continued)

Not wanting to embarrass Xu Pingsheng, yet also wanting to avenge his brother, Lei Yingdong couldn't come up with a good idea. He tossed and turned for several nights, unable to sleep, smoking and drinking, and felt like he had lost a lot of weight. Whenever he put his mind to something but still couldn't find a solution, Lei Yingdong wondered what Song Tianyao would do if he encountered such a situation.

But he wasn't Song Tianyao, and ultimately couldn't imitate Song Tianyao's style of doing things.

Then, when he finally received the news that this guy had returned to Hong Kong, Lei Yingdong's reaction was swift. As soon as he received the news, he bought some tonics such as bird's nest, abalone, shark fin, and sea cucumber, and went to visit Song Tianyao's home on Tai Wo Street.

In Lei Yingdong's view, even if Song Tianyao was busy back in Hong Kong, he should have gone home first to let everyone know he was safe.

As a result, Lei Yingdong had lunch and dinner with Song Tianyao's parents. He listened to the news his subordinates kept bringing him: Song Tianyao went to Macau, Song Tianyao went to see Yu Shiting, Song Tianyao Song Tianyao went to see Xu Pingsheng, Song Tianyao was picked up by Chu Xiaoxin, and the two went to the Harp Restaurant for dinner. His subordinates even mentioned that Song Tianyao Hong Kong Jockey Club Chu Xiaoxin changed into jockey clothes.

"How come your information came so smoothly?" After confirming that Song Tianyao wouldn't be going home tonight, Lei Yingdong said goodbye to Zhao Meizhen and Song Chunliang. As he left the British-German Western Pharmacy, gazing at the dusky street scene, he wiped the half-smoked cigarette from his mouth and asked his subordinate, "And I feel like something's not quite right?"

The subordinate didn't understand Lei Yingdong's meaning. "I also think it's strange that Song Tianyao and Chu Xiaoxin are wearing jockey uniforms..."

"No." Lei Yingdong shook his head. "It's not that his clothes are strange, it's... You said before that when Song Tianyao went to see He Xian in Macau, Yu Shiting Xu Pingsheng, he was with Huang Liu. But after Song Tianyao and Chu Xiaoxin left together, where did Huang Liu go?"

The subordinate was taken aback for a moment.

Lei Yingdong looked at him, his eyes gleaming. "That Song Tianyao is most afraid of death, and his own life is the most important thing to him. He even got into a gunfight at Yu Shiting's house. After causing such a huge mess, would he dare to go out to eat with Chu Xiaoxin so openly? If he went by himself, I might believe it was true. But with Chu Xiaoxin involved, it must be fake. Song Tianyao is planning to use himself and Chu Xiaoxin as bait to catch fish."

"Fishing? What kind of fish? Yu Shiting?"

"No matter what kind of fish they're fishing for, they'll definitely be from Shanghai people. But if I go and lend a hand, I'll be letting down the brothers who died. Let's go, to the Harp Restaurant." Lei Yingdong quickly sorted out his thoughts and said with certainty.

"Excuse me, I'm going to the restroom too." Seeing Lu Yuanchun leave his seat and head towards the restroom, Song Tianyao quickly stood up as well, said this to the four people at the table, and hurriedly followed Lu Yuanchun away.

His words made the two black knights and the woman named Suki look up at him. Suki frowned, and only after Song Tianyao had walked away did she speak disdainfully:

"Brother Jie, who are these two virgins? Judging from their lustful looks, they haven't seen a woman in centuries!"

The black knight, called Brother Jie, calmly said, "That was Ah Tian just now, and this is Ah Sin. They're both my apprentices. There will be some upsets in a couple of days, one of them will be a huge upset. Ah Sin will be the one running the huge upset, and Ah Tian will run the other one."

Upon hearing Brother Jie's words, Suki's previously cold and arrogant face instantly blossomed into a radiant smile. Her gaze towards Chu Xiaoxin softened, and she proactively extended her hand to shake Chu Xiaoxin's hand.

"Ah Sin, right? Just call me Sister Suki."

Chu Xiaoxin responded with a smile and shook hands with Suki.

Song Tianyao chased Lu Yuanchun all the way to the corner of the restroom. Lu Yuanchun stopped and turned to look at Song Tianyao, his gaze ambiguous.

Song Tianyao looked down at his riding gear, then at Lu Yuanchun: "How is it? Do I look like a jockey?"

"I really didn't expect Mr. Song to have such a strong mental fortitude. After suddenly running back to Hong Kong and stirring up trouble between the two sides, he actually thought of posing as a jockey to invite women to dinner." Lu Yuanchun shook his head slightly, clearly not expecting Song Tianyao to do such a thing.

"I didn't expect to run into you here. You were so angry this afternoon, but now you're in the mood to have lunch with the jockey. What, are you hoping to get some winning tips from the jockey to make back the profits we made by teaming up?" Song Tianyao leaned against the wall, touched his pocket, and found that his cigarettes and lighter were on the seat.

Lu Yuanchun took out a pack of Life Buoy Menthol Cigarettes from his handbag and handed it to Song Tianyao.

"Thank you, but I'm not used to women's cigarettes." Song Tianyao didn't take it; Lu Yuanchun lit it himself. He glanced at Lu Yuanchun shaking hands with Suki at the dining table in the distance.

"Mr. Chu and Mr. Song are used to the food at nightclubs, so they'd like to try something lighter?"

After Lu Yuanchun finished speaking, he took a puff of his cigarette, but was choked by the smoke and coughed repeatedly. The waiters not far away all looked at him with concern.

Song Tianyao reached out and took the cigarette from Lu Yuanchun's lips, putting it in his own mouth. "If you don't know how to smoke, don't try to imitate it."

Lu Yuanchun looked at the cigarette in Song Tianyao's mouth. "After arriving in Hong Kong, I saw many women smoking this kind of cigarette, so I bought it to try it out."

"Mr. Chu's pharmaceutical factory also produces 'Infatuation and Longing Pills,' want to give them a try? One pill a day, guaranteed to intensify your love." Song Tianyao joked, "Not everything is worth trying, let's go."

Lu Yuanchun carefully stepped to stand next to Song Tianyao, standing against the wall just like Song Tianyao. The faint floral scent emanating from her made Song Tianyao involuntarily sniff her nose. Lu Yuanchun tilted her head slightly to look at Song Tianyao: "What, worried about me?"

"Yes, I fell in love with you at first sight, and I'm afraid you'll be seen in this kind of place and someone will steal you away." Song Tianyao rolled his eyes and asked in the same tone, "What, are all women in Malaya as narcissistic as you?"

Lu Yuanchun withdrew his gaze and leaned the back of his head against the wall. "No."

"Come on, you're so smart, you can't possibly not guess why I'm here. Am I really so thirsty that I'm planning to pick up girls with my Big Brother?" Song Tianyao gently touched Lu Yuanchun's hand with the back of his hand, Lu Yuanchun was slightly cool.
