Free Web NovelChapter 2081: Chapter 2282: Scent of a Woman
They all looked at their boss, Baldy, with puzzled expressions, wondering why he suddenly changed his attitude. Hao Jian mentioned dealing with the Axe Gang, not someone else, so why did Baldy change his mind with just a glance? They were confused.
When Hao Jian was here earlier, they didn’t dare to ask directly. Now that Hao Jian had left, they all looked at Baldy with doubtful eyes.
Baldy knew what they were thinking, but he himself was still in a state of surprise and didn’t know how to explain it to them. He paused, poured himself a few glasses of wine, and drank them, allowing the alcohol to numb his mind before he regained his composure.
"I know what you guys want to ask," Baldy said. "Hao Jian is not as simple as we imagined. At least now, it seems he’s someone we can’t afford to offend."
When Baldy said this, everyone’s eyes lit up. Can’t afford to offend? What does that mean? He’s just a student, no matter how capable, how can he be untouchable? Does he have backing? But what backing does he have?
No one spoke, waiting for Baldy to continue.
Baldy gathered his thoughts and said, "He has a Supreme Black Card from Huaxia Bank!"
When Baldy uttered this sentence, even he couldn’t steady his nerves, let alone the others present. Perhaps only Baldy among them had seen what a Supreme Black Card looks like, but not seeing it doesn’t mean they don’t know what it represents. They hadn’t seen a real Black Card but knew the weight a Supreme Black Card from Huaxia Bank holds.
It’s a symbol of status, identity, and power. How many are there in Yun City? Maybe just a few. So when they heard Baldy say Hao Jian had a Supreme Black Card from Huaxia Bank, they all opened their eyes wide and mouths agape, completely astonished.
Only then did they realize why Baldy changed his attitude so quickly; it was because of this. At the same time, they understood why Hao Jian easily booked a VIP room in the hospital — those are always in limited supply. Even wealthy people have to wait for a bed, yet Hao Jian booked it immediately and paid the medical fees without any hassle.
When the incident happened, they didn’t even stop to think. Now, hearing Baldy connect everything, it all made sense.
It turns out that when Hao Jian said he didn’t care about the Axe Gang at all, it was true. He truly had the power. But they were puzzled; why would someone like Hao Jian want to help them? They didn’t understand. If it were for something, it wouldn’t be worth it for him; he’s already powerful, so why rely on them?
"Really?" a little brother asked, still not recovered from the shock and confirming again with Baldy.
Baldy was not angry, he nodded naturally and said, "I saw the Black Card myself, it can’t be wrong."
Everyone knew about Baldy’s past and knew he had seen a Supreme Black Card, so hearing him say that, it must be true.
Shock, still shock. They hadn’t recovered for a long time.
Baldy suddenly stood up and said, "Alright, since that’s the case, let’s rest first. Anyway, going far from home is the same old story, living is worse than dying. It’s better to stay here with Hao Jian; maybe after this, we can achieve something big."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up. If there was an opportunity, who would want to be a street punk every day? Those who think like that are just people who eat, drink, and sleep without contemplating things. They didn’t think that way. If there truly is an opportunity to make a name for themselves, they can live a proper life.
Before this, it could be said there weren’t opportunities, but now, they encountered Hao Jian, who even had a Supreme Black Card, someone who would lead them to contend with the Axe Gang. So, the result could only be one of two: either they’d perish, or become wealthy and powerful in the future.
Although Baldy didn’t say it clearly, everyone could perceive the profound meaning in his words. This was their opportunity, a chance to leap over the dragon’s gate. Success or failure hinged on this. Everyone remained silent, their eyes revealing a long-lost spirit. After drinking a glass of wine together, they dispersed and went home to rest well, preparing to complete the tasks Hao Jian assigned to them.
After everyone left, Baldy went to pay the bill alone. The owner looked at Baldy somewhat surprised, as the scene earlier looked like it might escalate into a fight, yet at this moment, Baldy’s eyes showed a spirited vigor never seen before, and the owner looked at Baldy several more times in surprise.
Afraid of angering someone like Baldy, the owner quickly averted his gaze after a few glances. Watching Baldy leave, his gaze followed him closely.
Having walked a distance, Baldy suddenly stopped, took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket, lit it, took a deep inhalation, exhaled a smoke ring, and looked up at the moon, lost in thought, his eyes deep.
He couldn’t believe he actually encountered such a person again. After the last boss he followed ended up in jail, he had never thought about achieving success again, so he organized some small-time street punks to make a living, equally content. But tonight was too unexpected.
The hot blood within him started to burn again. This could be the chance for him to rise once more, so he would certainly hold on tightly.
Standing under the moon, he finished smoking, dropped the cigarette butt to the ground, stomped it out, smiling, then disappeared into the night. frёeωebɳovel.com
......
This incident didn’t take long, so when Hao Jian returned to the house, Liang Xiaohan had just arrived home herself, having just finished washing and reclining on the sofa to rest.
Regarding the earlier episode, Liang Xiaohan didn’t seem to have the intention of questioning Hao Jian. When Hao Jian walked past, she ignored him, and only when Hao Jian finished washing and prepared to sleep did she kick the garbage can nearby, instructing Hao Jian to go downstairs and empty the trash. Hao Jian didn’t say a word and went down to dispose of the trash.
After taking out the trash and returning to his room to sleep, he looked at the time, realizing Liang Yuwei’s arrival was getting closer, his mood growing angrier. But he was also a bit worried that little brat Xiaohan might speak out of turn tonight; if Hu Lai and his friends hadn’t been quick-witted, the situation might have been hard to resolve.
He didn’t want to think too much; he had to get up early for school the next day. Though he never really attended classes, merely accompanying Liang Xiaohan, over time he had grown accustomed to this routine, the typical life of a student.
The next morning, the sun was out, but shortly after he finished brushing his teeth, the sky darkened, and rain started pouring. Instantly, he remembered the clothes on the balcony hadn’t been collected, and he rushed to gather them.
As the rain poured heavily, he didn’t hesitate to grab Liang Xiaohan’s clothes too. If delayed, they’d get wet, and she’d surely blame him for it. However, while attempting to put the clothes on the sofa, Hao Jian caught a delicate scent at the tip of his nose. He instinctively looked down and saw a pink lace bra.
Hao Jian’s eyes immediately lit up, and a certain part reacted instantly even this early morning. While collecting clothes, he had grabbed them in haste because of the heavy rain; he hadn’t thought much, only to find Liang Xiaohan’s bra right before him.
At this moment, he privately noted how fragrant it smelled. He hadn’t expected a bra worn by Liang Xiaohan to smell this good. Then, driven by instinct, he inhaled again.
However, at that moment, Liang Xiaohan opened her bedroom door, stretched, and walked out. Her vision was initially foggy from sleep, but instinctively looking ahead, she saw Hao Jian embracing her freshly washed bra and sniffing it.
Moreover, with an expression of enjoyment. Perv! That was the first word that popped into her mind; truly perverted!
She had imagined Hao Jian’s perverted actions countless times, but hadn’t expected him to be this perverse, sneaking her bra to sniff while she slept.
Bra is a girl’s personal item, and Hao Jian, as a grown man, sniffing it with a look of fascination made her feel disgusted.
It was the first time she found Hao Jian to be such a disgusting person, all the goodwill built over time by his actions vanished instantly, replaced by relentless anger and revulsion.
"What are you doing!" Liang Xiaohan’s voice questioned, echoing through the living room.
Hao Jian, initially lost in the fragrance, was truly enjoying it. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Yet upon hearing her voice the next second, his expression froze entirely.
The heavens could testify, he truly hadn’t thought much at that moment!
