Chapter 96: I Don’t Know Them, I Just Want to Hit Them!
Tang Chen was now sitting in front of his computer, wearing headphones and watching the latest adult film. Then, he took out his mobile phone and called Fang Wenxin.
The busy tone rang for a while, and then Fang Wenxin hurriedly answered the call, shouting, “Young Master Tang!”
Tang Chen removed his headphones and turned off the computer. Only then did he pretend to sound displeased and say, “Fang Wenxin, you and that kid Yu Tianyi are quite bold. I told you not to go, but you still sneaked off. Are you not taking my words seriously?”
Fang Wenxin knew that Young Master Tang would call to scold him and quickly said carefully, “Sorry, Young Master Tang. We didn’t mean to disobey your order, we were just a bit worried. If you want to punish us, I’ll come over with Yu Tianyi right now to apologize.”
“Forget it, I won’t bother with that this time. Just don’t do it again.” Actually, Tang Chen was not angry at all; on the contrary, he was quite grateful to Fang Wenxin and the other guy. If those two hadn’t shown up last night, Yang Mi wouldn’t have been able to get him to the hospital.
Then, Tang Chen told Fang Wenxin everything that happened the previous night and the fact that the Mo Sect existed. He also warned Fang Wenxin to be very careful recently about a possible sneak attack from the Mo Sect.
After hearing this, Fang Wenxin spoke cautiously, “Young Master Tang, the Mo Sect actually made a move on you. Do you think we should retaliate?”
Tang Chen thought for a moment and said, “Not for now. Let’s wait and see. I took out their five elites yesterday, which should have dealt them a heavy blow. They probably won’t recover so quickly.”
After giving Fang Wenxin a few more instructions, Tang Chen hung up.
At the same time, in a villa in the suburbs of Jingdu, a boy around eighteen or nineteen years old with a baby face sat there with a grim expression. Shattered pieces of a mobile phone were scattered on the floor.
His fists were clenched tightly, and a silent killing intent spread out in a circle around him. The boy opened his narrow, long eyes and said coldly, “Uncle Mo, I will avenge you!”
Tang Chen did not know that a pair of dark eyes had silently targeted him once again. It was already the second day of his rest at home. Yang Mi had gone to school early, and the house was empty and boring again.
Tang Chen lay on the bed and tried to sleep for a while. But no matter how hard he tried to fall asleep, the battle from last night kept replaying in his mind.
“System, I really want to get stronger.” Tang Chen sat up and said seriously, “That guy was way too strong. If everyone in the Mo Sect is that strong, then Fang Wenxin and the others are definitely going to suffer.”
System: “Respected Host, talking to me is useless. This System still says the same thing: the time is not right yet. You should focus on doing missions first.”
“Missions, missions, it’s always about missions. Damn it, why don’t you just give me missions!” The more Tang Chen spoke, the more irritated he became. Somehow, he felt like the System was deliberately avoiding the topic of him getting stronger. Every time he brought it up, the System brushed him off with these words.
The System still spoke calmly, “Respected Host, it’s not that this System doesn’t want to give you missions. You must remember, the sky won’t drop free lunches. If you keep staying at home, you simply won’t trigger any missions.”
Hearing this, Tang Chen thought it made sense. When had he become such a shut-in? No, he needed to go out, he needed to show off, he needed to do missions.
Tang Chen was about to laugh, but then he remembered something and curled his lip, saying, “System, I think you’re messing with me. Just yesterday you told me I need to rest and can’t show off or fight. If I can’t do those things, then how am I supposed to complete missions?”
System: “Respected Host, your mind is too violent. All you think about is fighting and beating people up. When Author Jun wrote your character, he didn’t intend for you to be so dark.”
Tang Chen cursed angrily, “Dark, my ass! Whatever personality I have was all set by that shitty Author Jun! What does it have to do with me!”
In his mind, a large sweatdrop appeared next to the System, which said helplessly, “Respected Host, please don’t complain about the lovely Author Jun here. This System suggests you go out for a walk. The world is big, and staying cooped up inside will make you sick.”
The corner of Tang Chen’s mouth twitched, but he ultimately didn’t bother arguing further with this jerk.
Tang Chen went out. He was very desperate for missions right now. Doing more missions would trigger the reward system more often, and maybe the System would reward him with something good again.
Recalling the past, the missions he triggered were usually about using money to humiliate people. But as his level of showing off rose, it seemed he hadn’t gotten such trashy missions recently.
Tang Chen thought about it. Right now, Fang Wenxin and the others were in class, and there were no more idiots at school who dared to provoke him. So, triggering missions at school was impossible; he had to go somewhere with lots of idiots.
Thinking this, he remembered someone: Third Master Chen. This guy was involved in the underworld and should know many good places to go. Once he thought of it, he acted. He called Third Master Chen, and ten minutes later, they met at Bus 309 station.
“Young Master Tang!” Third Master Chen walked over respectfully. He now had immense respect for Young Master Tang. After the incident at Junyue where they beat up Huang Tao, Young Master Tang gave him one million to distribute among his men as a reward.
In the past, Third Master Chen would never have shared money with his subordinates, but since it was Young Master Tang’s order, he didn’t dare disobey. His men were all very grateful, saying they had followed a good boss.
“Hmm, Chen Laosan, you got here pretty fast.” Tang Chen nodded arrogantly. A boss needed to have that boss-like domineering aura.
“Young Master Tang summoned me, I didn’t dare delay. By the way, Young Master Tang, did you call me to come see the bar’s new renovations?” Third Master Chen had a natural talent for being a lackey, flattering without seeming obvious.
Tang Chen remembered that matter, but said, “That’s not urgent. I called you to ask if you know any places around here that those rich guys, second-generation heirs, and other idiots like to go to most?”
Third Master Chen asked curiously, “Young Master Tang, why do you ask? If you’re looking for fun, you can go to a bar. Those places are expensive but not really interesting.”
Tang Chen rolled his eyes and said, “You don’t get it. For me, the fun is in causing trouble for those so-called second-generation heirs. In the past, I’d deal with them myself, but today I’m wearing expensive clothes. To avoid those jerks’ dirty hands touching me, you can handle it for me.”
Third Master Chen was speechless, partly because of Young Master Tang’s peculiar hobbies, and partly because Young Master Tang had called him here to be a thug. But he didn’t dare say anything. Being a thug was better than cleaning, at least.
“Young Master Tang, you’ve asked the right person. I know of a club that’s lively every night, full of those second-generation heirs.” Third Master Chen didn’t dare show dissatisfaction. Young Master Tang asking him to be a thug meant he thought highly of him.
Tang Chen grunted in satisfaction and said, “But since it’s a club, I suppose there are many bodyguards for those second-generation heirs inside. You’re too old, and I don’t feel like fighting. Call a dozen of your best fighters to come here.”
Third Master Chen almost coughed up blood. Young Master Tang’s level of show-off was truly subtle yet overpowering. With just that simple sentence, he both insulted him for being old and displayed his own ever-present arrogance. Third Master Chen was deeply impressed.
“Don’t worry, Young Master Tang, I’ll call right away.” Third Master Chen took out his mobile phone and made a call, ordering his men to get there within fifteen minutes.
Sure enough, fifteen minutes later, ten people got out of two taxis. Nine were guys, and one was a hot girl with a great figure. They greeted Tang Chen and Third Master Chen, saying, “Young Master Tang, Third Master.”
Third Master Chen pointed to a tall guy and said to Tang Chen, “Young Master Tang, this is my best fighter, Chen Bailin. This girl is Yang Haiyue, his fiancée. Don’t be fooled because she’s a girl—her skills are impressive too. She used to practice jiu-jitsu.”
“Young Master Tang!” Chen Bailin and Yang Haiyue said in unison.
Tang Chen grunted, smiled mysteriously, and said, “I didn’t call you here for anything major. It’s just that the weather’s been nice lately, perfect for hitting people. Later, you’ll follow me and Chen Laosan to a place. Remember, once we’re there, if I say hit, you hit. Just don’t kill anyone.”
Yang Haiyue asked curiously, “Young Master Tang, are the people we’re going to hit your enemies?”
“No.” Tang Chen shook his head, smiled faintly, and said, “I don’t know them, I just want to hit them.”
