Just as Zhao Chengs fist was about to reach Wu Tian, a clear and sonorous voice stopped everyone.

Tan Jing ran in and shouted immediately, Stop!

His voice was loud and clear. It even echod in the empty nightclub.

Zhao Chengs fist stopped at the tip of Wu Tians nose.

Today was the day that Tan Jing came to the shop to check, so he was already near No Mans Land. After receiving the call from the waiter, he rushed over immediately. The moment he entered the door of No Mans Land, he saw this scene and immediately stopped them.

s.h.i.+ Xiao and the others looked at him.

Tan Jing was tall and strong. As he walked in with a cold expression, he said, Young Master s.h.i.+, you came to my shop and hit my people. Arent you being too contemptuous?

s.h.i.+ Xiao smiled at him as he said in an indifferent tone, 1 was wondering who it was. So the boss behind No Mans Land is actually Young Master Tan.

Tan Jing hated interacting with s.h.i.+ Xiao the most. s.h.i.+ Xiao was cold and heartless. He didnt leave any leeway when he did things and those who went against him would never have a good ending.

The Tan family had maintained a neutral stance for so many years because they didnt want to cause trouble or go against s.h.i.+ Xiao directly, but they didnt expect him to find out about this in the end.

Tan Jing walked to Wu Tians side and pushed Zhao Cheng away with a punch. Then, he pulled Wu Tian, who was trembling in fear, behind him and said impatiently, Go and do your work.

Wu Tian nodded vigorously, hunched his shoulders, and retreated. Then, he hid behind the bar counter.

Tan Jing sat down on the leather seat beside s.h.i.+ Xiao. His suit jacket was open and his s.h.i.+rt was tight, so the contours of his muscles were very obvious.

After Tan Jing placed his hands on his thighs and knees, he pinched them lightly and the sound of bones colliding could be heard. Then, he said in an unfriendly tone, I dont know what my bartender did to attract your attention. Young Master s.h.i.+ went to Africa for two months and didnt come back, so there are so many things that he didnt settle, yet he came to No Mans Land first.

s.h.i.+ Xiao was twirling the silver ring on his index finger with his thumb. As his finger rubbed against the patterns on the ring, he said calmly, Young Master Tan, you dont have to beat around the bush with me. You know very well why Im here. Since Im here, I naturally have to investigate the matter clearly. Young Master Tan, dont think you can fool me.

Zhao Cheng waited for s.h.i.+ Xiao to finish speaking. After he gave the two bodyguards beside him a look, the three of them moved and stared at Tan Jing fiercely.

Tan Jing frowned when he saw the three of them.

Although Tan Jings tone was still very fierce, it was obvious that he had given in. What do you want to ask?

s.h.i.+ Xiao sneered. Thats more like it. Tell me, was that gla.s.s of Sky City that night your idea or was it ordered by someone?

Just as Tan Jing was about to reply, s.h.i.+ Xiao added, 1 advise you to think carefully. The outcome of attacking me now is worse than if you tell the truth.

Tan Jing was stunned and looked at s.h.i.+ Xiao in shock.

s.h.i.+ Xiaos threat was very useful. With Li Cis help, the s.h.i.+ family could be said to be invincible in the upper-cla.s.s circle. Only the Jiang family was able to compete with them because they were powerful in the underworld. s.h.i.+ Xiao wasnt someone he could afford to provoke.

But what if he revealed the person behind it? If he revealed everything now, Tan Jing wouldnt end up any better than if he chose previous option.

This was simply a dilemma. No matter what choice he made, he would be screwed!

Just as Tan Jing was in a dilemma, s.h.i.+ Xiao seemed to be in a good mood and wanted to let him off. He actually changed his mind. Young A^aster Tan, your expression has already betrayed you. Im no longer curious about the answer to this question.. Why dont I change the question? Was Yuan Shu an accident in your plan or was it premeditated?
