Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Long Fang was reluctant to see Zhou Hengyang leave.
Despite being feared as a tyrant in the northwest, Long Fang wasnt as intimidating as rumours suggested. However, few dared to befriend him due to his intimidating aura.
For Zhou Hengyang, leaving Long Fangs company was tiresome. He found Long Fangs demeanour vexingsometimes distant, sometimes familiar. Perhaps it was because no one dared to engage with him in the past, but Zhou Hengyang found the interaction stifling.
It feels like Long Fang is talking a bit too much these days.
Feeling Long Fangs chatter was becoming unbearable, Zhou Hengyangs cold gaze betrayed an underlying tension he struggled to suppress. He flipped the magazine over his lap and closed his eyes to rest.
As the magazine turned, Long Fang glanced at the cover character, teasing, Been admiring that beauty for long? Want me to help you make a move?
Liu Chun, exasperated, covered his face, preferring not to intervene.
He knew Zhou Hengyang wasnt feeling great. The instant he laid eyes on the magazine, he abandoned everything and rushed back.
Liu Chun sympathized with his good brother. The more reserved Zhou Hengyang appeared the more he cared. In any case, no one dared to provoke them.
He might as well let Long Fang keep stoking the fire! Only Long Fang wouldnt get beaten for speaking up.
Suddenly, Zhou Hengyangs eyes snapped open, his sharp gaze sweeping the interior, chilling the air. The occupants exchanged glances, but no one dared to speak.
In the back row, the others were as shocked as Liu Chun, fearing Zhou Hengyang might retaliate against Long Fang.
Unbeknownst to them, rumours circulated about Bosss newfound fondness for Zhou Hengyang, fueling speculation about their relations.h.i.+p. The biggest mystery was that ever since the boss became brothers with Zhou, hes changed completely. He talks more to him in a day than he did in a month before. Bosss increased attention to Zhou seemed peculiar, causing whispers among the staff.
EEveryone just imagines it in their heads but doesnt dare to say it out loud.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, anyone in Long Fangs place would be sweating profusely and trembling now. Yet, Long Fang grinned arrogantly, declaring his loyalty to Zhou Hengyang.
Long Fang hadnt forgotten Zhou Hengyangs hasty return. If not for their current partners.h.i.+p, he might have followed suit.
Liu Chun coughed, drawing attention, prompting Long Fang to inquire about his well-being.
Long Fang glanced at Liu Chun through the rearview mirror. Fourth boss, why are you coughing?
Liu Chun was at a loss. How did he become the fourth boss?
No, am I not the third boss? When did I become the fourth boss? Liu Chun couldnt help but complain. He had already been demoted a few months ago, all thanks to that shameless Zhou Hengguang, who squeezed him out of the position of the second boss as soon as he arrived.
Long Fangs grin widened as he claimed the t.i.tle of Changhes second boss.
Liu Chun couldnt help but jest, suggesting Long Fang challenge their second boss for the position.
The idea of two beasts battling excited Liu Chun. Regardless of the outcome, he was resigned to being demoted to the fourth boss.
Long Fangs silence spoke volumeshe looked forward to challenging the second boss in the provincial capital, confident of his victory.
