Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim
Chapter 488 Undercurrent
Chen Lang returned to the private room and said hello to Bao and Fan, saying that he had to go and receive a distinguished guest and would not stay with them any longer.
Bao and Fan, however, interpreted this as Chen Lang's cowardice, and thought that what he did was a disguised admission of defeat.
Although he failed to defeat Chen Lang in literature, the fact that he made this famous talent in Linshui County admit defeat is worthy of being written about in a big way.
However, Chen Lang didn't bother to guess what they were thinking. He said something to the Wang siblings and left quickly.
Wang Junyuan didn't want to stay here anymore. As soon as Chen Lang left, he ran away.
Wang Shiru sat on the chair and sighed deeply.
It’s such a pity that I couldn’t see the scene I wanted to see the most.
Chen Lang hurried to the next room, and just as he reached the door, he was pushed from behind.
Chen Lang's foot tripped on the door sill and he stumbled forward. Fortunately, he was young and reacted quickly, grabbing the table next to him, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself in public.
However, the person who pushed him did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, and did not even stop to apologize, but walked straight to a box in front.
Chen Lang was very unhappy and thought that this was too rude. Shouldn’t he at least say sorry after bumping into someone?
Chen Lang strode to the door of the box, trying to pull the man out to apologize to him. At this moment, a voice came from the box: "He is right here."
"How many guards are there?"
"At least six."
"There are also two local county officials accompanying us."
"Do you want to take action?"
"This is a God-given opportunity, so naturally we must take action."
"Don't worry, the escape route has been arranged."
Chen Lang's hand that was knocking on the door stopped in mid-air, and his brows furrowed.
The subject of discussion among the people in the box was quite obvious.
At this moment, there are indeed two local officials accompanying an important figure in this restaurant.
The people in the box want to take action against this important person?
Just as Chen Lang was frowning and thinking, the door suddenly opened.
The people in the house didn't expect that there was someone standing at the door. They were immediately frightened and put their hands on their waists.
Chen Lang glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed that there was a noticeable bulge on the man's waist, which looked like a knife handle.
"What are you doing?" the person in the room asked harshly.
Chen Lang quickly narrowed his gaze and said in feigned anger, "I should be the one asking you this. You almost pushed me over just now, and you left without even an apology. Didn't your parents teach you to be polite and follow the rules when you're out?"
The man in the room was furious and asked, "Do you want to die?"
"Hey, you dare to threaten me? Do you know who I am?" Chen Lang shouted deliberately.
This shout startled the others in the box, and they saw a tall young man wearing a cloak and with a rather noble temperament walking over and asking, "What's going on?"
The man said, "Sir, he said one of our men bumped into him and didn't apologize."
The nobleman turned around to look at his companions and said, "Whoever bumped into me, come over and apologize."
Someone immediately stood up, walked up to Chen Lang, and said with a sullen face, "I bumped into you. I'm sorry."
Chen Lang rolled his eyes: "No sincerity at all."
"You almost broke my bones."
The man who bumped into someone gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, stop it, I..."
The noble young man waved his hand, smiled at Chen Lang, then took out a gold ingot and handed it to Chen Lang, saying, "Brother, this ingot of silver is my apology. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive my brother's rudeness."
Chen Lang took the gold without hesitation and bit it with his teeth in a very mercenary manner: "Wow, real gold."
"Okay, for the sake of gold, I forgive you."
"Be careful next time. You only bumped into me this time. If you bump into someone powerful next time, it won't be something you can settle with just a piece of gold."
After Chen Lang left, the Han man who bumped into him said indignantly, "Sir, why did you give him money? He's clearly trying to blackmail us."
The noble young man said calmly, "We are here to do business, so it's best not to cause any unnecessary trouble."
"If you want revenge, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"Okay, go out and ask around, and the others stay here and wait."
Everyone said in unison: "Yes!"
Chen Lang went to the second floor and met Pang Qiuyan who had changed her clothes.
"Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Lang said: "I dealt with some personal matters."
"Come with me, the person is in the room in front." Pang Qiuyan didn't ask any more questions and pulled Chen Lang to the room in front.
Chen Lang entered the room alone. The first person he saw was Xie Qinghuan, who was sitting in the middle of the room playing music. She was not wearing a cheongsam today, but an ordinary performance costume, which completely concealed her beautiful figure. The songs she sang were also those vulgar songs that were everywhere.
It can be seen that Xie Qinghuan is full of resistance to this performance.
At the top of the room, there were three people sitting.
I don’t know the one Chen Lang is in the middle of. The two people next to him are Chang Anmin and Wang Yunzhang.
Chang Anmin hooked his finger at Chen Lang and said, "Chen Lang, come forward."
Chen Lang walked over and bowed, "Greetings, Master Chang and Master Wang."
Chang Anmin said, "Chen Lang, this is the King of Jiangxia, His Majesty Dao Zong. Please pay your respects."
Chen Lang said, "I, Chen Lang, pay my respects to the King of Jiangxia."
Murong Dao Zong said cheerfully, "No need to be so polite. I have heard of your great name a long time ago."
"Master Xiao praised you a lot in the court, saying that you are a talent rarely seen in a century."
"Part of the reason why I came to Linshui is because of you."
Chen Lang said, "Your Majesty, I am deeply ashamed to accept your compliments."
Murong Dao Zong said: "Don't be too modest. Your song "Water Melody" is truly astonishing and unprecedented."
"I am very interested in the second half of the poem. Can you read it to me?"
Chen Lang said: "Of course, I will read it right away."
"Turning around the red pavilion, lowering the beautiful window, shining on the sleepless..."
Chen Lang quickly recited the second stanza of "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" and then said, "Your Highness, my Lords, I have some things to attend to. I'll come back to keep you company later, okay?"
Wang Yunzhang asked, "What's so urgent?"
Chen Lang said: "It's just a personal matter, it will be handled quickly."
Murong Dao Zong was quite generous and waved his hand, saying, "It's alright, you can handle it. With Miss Qing Huan playing music here, I won't be bored."
Chen Lang bowed and said, "Thank you for your consideration, Your Highness. I will be back soon."
After that, he left in a hurry.
After leaving the house, Pang Qiuyan grabbed him again: "Why did you come out alone? Where is Sister Qinghuan?"
Chen Lang looked around, then pulled Pang Qiuyan to the corner of the corridor.
Pang Qiuyan was a little nervous and said, "What do you want to do? You are not allowed to do anything stupid in broad daylight."
Chen Lang said, "Listen, I'm going to get something. If anything unexpected happens here before I come back, don't even think about anything else. Just grab Xie Qinghuan and run. If you can't run away, find a place to hide. Don't worry about other people's lives. Do you understand?"
