A Formidable Man with a Mysterious Background

Upon hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Xiang Kun quickly recognized its owner. Wasn't this the tall, thin man who had led a group to cause trouble at apartment 706 before, whom he had stopped, and who, still angry, had brought another group to block him at the entrance of the complex?

Officer Chen seemed to have said that his Qin Dong, and he was known as "Brother Dong"?

This really is... something that happens all the time.

Xiang Kun pondered that if they came after him from the KTV, he would simply hide and avoid them. If they went to Tang Baona's private room and caused trouble, he would first find the KTV security guards and ask them to stop them. Then he would call Officer Chen to report that Qin Dong knew he was in this KTV and deliberately sent people to cause trouble for him and his friends.

But the conversation inside the private room took an unexpected turn.

"Yeah, Dong-ge, he's bald, wears glasses, looks pretty strong, and is very powerful; he's probably trained. And after he choked Little Qi, his expression was incredibly twisted..."

What the young man called "A Hua" said made Xiang Kun feel a surge of anger.

"Is he about 1.8 meters tall? Does he wear black-rimmed glasses? Are his shoulders broad? Is he very strong?" Qin Dong bombarded him with questions.

The young man named A Hua and Little Qi, whose neck was choked by Xiang Kun, both gave affirmative answers.

"Brother Dong, do you know that guy?" The man who had initially encouraged them to find Xiang Kun asked with some surprise, then seemed to remember something. "Bald guy... could it be the person you mentioned before? Holy crap, it can't be that much of a coincidence...?"

Qin Dong's tone was somewhat strange. "Bald, black-rimmed glasses, 1.8 meters tall, very strong, gives off a crazy, even perverted vibe. There's a 90% chance it's him. I don't think you can find another person like that in the same city. Little Qi, A Hua, is that bald guy with the girls you've been harassing?"

"Brother, we didn't harass her. We just greeted her and asked if she wanted to come to the private room to hang out..." The tall young man's voice sounded a little aggrieved.

"Come on, do you think I don't know your character? You probably just had a sharp tongue. Just swallow this bitter pill and don't even think about getting revenge or causing trouble for anyone in that private room, or I won't be able to protect you!" Qin Dong said in a rather unfriendly tone.

"Brother Dong, who is that bald guy? Even you don't dare to mess with him?" It was a sweet female voice.

Qin Dong's tone turned serious. "If the guy who choked Little Qi's bald head is the same one I encountered before, then he's definitely not someone we can mess with. Because I led a group to ambush him, several officers from our district have been giving me trouble for days, the bar was shut down twice, and I was even called in for questioning by the criminal investigation team of the branch office..."

"That guy's a cop? An undercover agent?" came a surprised voice.

The other people in the private room expressed similar doubts.

Qin Dong continued, "I had someone secretly investigate that bald guy. Damn, he's a programmer on the surface, but his background is very mysterious. Although he's not a policeman, he has a deep connection with the criminal investigation team."

"Do you remember that guy who was on TV last month, the one who committed murder and robbery on ** Street and was wanted by the police? Do you know how he was arrested? This bald guy took him down one-on-one right there on the street! Besides him, several other people have been taken to the police station by this bald guy in the past month."

"I led a group of people to confront that bald guy before. Several of us surrounded him, but he wasn't scared at all. There was a kid who had just graduated from high school who held a knife to his stomach, but he pushed it back, which scared the kid so much that he couldn't hold the knife properly and was completely terrified."

"Later, this kid said he saw that bald guy again on the road, and that the bald guy was going to kill him. He was so scared that he ran to call the police."

"Anyway, I've been in this city for so many years, and I've met quite a few people while running a bar. Whether they're from the underworld or not, I've never met anyone who can give me that feeling. That's not something you can develop in normal society."

"I suspect this bald man might be someone who handles special matters for the government."

After Qin Dong finished speaking, the private room fell silent. Little Qi, who had just had his neck choked by Xiang Kun, asked suspiciously, "That bald guy... could he be a former elite soldier who came back from abroad?"

Outside the private room, at the corner of the corridor, Xiang Kun, who had been eavesdropping, was also completely bewildered.

How come I don't know how awesome I am?

This guy's imagination is off the charts! What is all this nonsense? He's even using terms like "someone who handles special matters for the government." Has he been watching too many novels and American TV shows?

They even claimed to have secretly investigated me. If they had investigated, they would have clearly known that my resume is completely clean and there is absolutely no possibility of it being fabricated.

But upon further reflection, Xiang Kun understood somewhat.

The more Qin Dong described Xiang Kun, the more powerful, mysterious, and well-connected he was, the less he could hide his own setbacks with Xiang Kun.

Especially considering the incident outside 706 where Xiang Kun beat him up, if the person beating him was a mysterious, powerful figure with official connections, perhaps he wouldn't have been so humiliated?

Regardless of Qin Dong's intentions, as long as they don't cause trouble for Tang Baona and her friends, that's fine.

Upon hearing that Qin Dong was going to take everyone in the private room to his bar to drink in order to avoid possibly running into Xiang Kun again, Xiang Kun stopped eavesdropping, went around to the main entrance from the other side of the corridor, and then took a taxi home.

The feeling of hunger was getting stronger and stronger.

After saying goodbye to Xiang Kun, Tang Baona returned to the private room somewhat absent-minded, and her singing became increasingly difficult.

Not long after everyone sang "Happy Birthday," blew out the candles, made a wish, and cut the cake, they gradually said goodbye and left. After all, they were all past the age of singing all night and having a blast.

After calling a designated driver and returning home, Yang Zhen'er helped Tang Baona carry the gifts into the elevator. She couldn't help but mutter, "What kind of gift did Xiang Kun give? Such a big wooden box, and it's quite heavy! Hey, Nana, why did he leave before even cutting the cake?"

"Didn't I tell you in the private room that he wasn't feeling well, so he left first?" Tang Baona replied while pressing the elevator button.

"Hmph, that's definitely an excuse. He's as strong as an ox, how could he keep saying he's not feeling well? I bet he's just afraid we'll ask him to sing again, so he deliberately made an excuse to leave! I figured it out a long time ago, Xiang Kun has social anxiety!"

"No, I think he seems to be feeling a bit unwell," Tang Baona said after frowning and thinking for a moment.

Yang Zhen'er looked at her friend strangely and asked, "By the way, what were you and him talking about outside the private room? Why do you seem a bit absent-minded since you came back?"

"He didn't say anything, just that he wasn't feeling well and left first." Tang Baona didn't mention that Xiang Kun had suddenly attacked the person who was trying to chat her up in the aisle, but she couldn't help but think about Xiang Kun's beast-like rage in that instant, and at the same time, she would recall the somewhat disappointed and helpless feeling he had when Xiang Kun sang "Someone Like Me".

The longer I knew Xiang Kun image seemed to become.
