"Hey, wait!"
Seeing Xie Wen about to leave without another word, Chinjao hurriedly stopped him.
He had not really expected Xie Wen to do anything to Garp, and he also knew they probably could not hurt him.
But although he deeply hated Garp for flattening his head, Chinjao also knew Garp's personality very well. As long as Garp knew Chinjao had put them up to it, he probably would not hold it against them, and might even give Xie Wen and the others some pointers instead.

"Ahem.
