Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 284: The Male Protagonist is the Father


"Ah Hao," Chen Ming saw his companion named Ah Hao, who did not take Ye Xiao seriously at all and instead went straight to the security office, Chen Ming was immediately surprised.

But, Ah Hao, as if not hearing Chen Ming calling his name, said arrogantly and loudly, "Who is Ye Xiao? I want to see who the fuck is Ye Xiao."

Arrogant. Presumptuous.

Those two words appeared in everyone's minds, Chen Ming and Han Fei looked at each other; Ah Hao was really too arrogant.

However, just as Ah Hao walked into the security office and shouted a few times, suddenly, a scream came out, running from the security office with a changed complexion, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing, completely unlike the Ah Hao who had walked into the room bossing everyone around, not taking anyone seriously at all.

"What happened?" Han Fei went over to look at Ah Hao, who ran out of the security office and asked.

"It's him. It's him." Ah Hao was a bit agitated, but from the look on his face, it was obvious that he had seen someone he did not want to see, someone he would definitely be afraid to encounter.

At that moment, a person stood at the entrance of the security office, someone Chen Ming and Han Fei both knew and hated to the bone—it was none other than Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao's eyes did not look at Chen Ming and Han Fei but turned to the youngster named Ah Hao. He laughed and said to Ah Hao, "So you're studying here. If that's the case, Qin Yulu must also be studying here, right?"

Ah Hao's real name was Zhang Zihao, the delinquent student Ye Xiao had taught a lesson to that morning.

When Zhang Zihao heard Ye Xiao's words, he was immediately furious. Zhang Zihao was definitely a big brother figure here, and these people were all his, Zhang Zihao's, people. In front of his own men, how could he lose face?

"You choose neither heaven's road nor hell's gate; you've brought yourself here to your doom. Today, I'll make sure you don't leave alive," Zhang Zihao shouted angrily, then yelled loudly at his subordinates, "What are you standing around for? Attack him; if he dies, it's on me."

Hearing Zhang Zihao's words, his lackeys immediately prepared to rush at Ye Xiao like a pack of wolves, while Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen immediately tensed up, also ready for battle.

Though Tang Xuewen was not a good fighter, ever since the incident in the internet café where he had fought Chen Shui, having enjoyed the thrill of beating someone, Tang Xuewen suddenly realized he had come to like this feeling. So, when he heard it was time to fight, Tang Xuewen's first reaction was not fear but excitement.

However, just as Zhang Zihao's people were about to swarm up, Chen Ming suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute."

Zhang Zihao and his lackeys all turned to look at Chen Ming. Zhang Zihao said, "Mr. Chen, what is this about? This guy has to be crippled."

Hearing Zhang Zihao's words, Chen Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly. He and Han Fei knew all too well the extent of Ye Xiao's strength. Could these people really cripple Ye Xiao?

Chen Ming looked at Zhang Zihao and said, "Ye Xiao has something to discuss with me, so I'll listen to him first."

Seeing Chen Ming's serious expression, Zhang Zihao swallowed the words he was about to say.

Chen Ming turned to Ye Xiao and asked, "What do you want?"

Ye Xiao said, "It's about your father. If you think it can be made public, then I'll say it now. But once I speak here in front of so many people, there will be no turning back."

Everyone present, including Chen Ming, was taken aback by Ye Xiao's words. What did Ye Xiao mean? Had Ye Xiao got a hold of some leverage against Chen Ming's father?

Even Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen were puzzled at this point; Ye Xiao had not mentioned why he had come to the Third Academy before.

Chen Ming hesitated for a moment, thought of Han Fei's father, and eventually compromised.

"Alright, let's talk inside," Chen Ming said reluctantly.

Hearing Chen Ming's words, Han Fei immediately said to Chen Ming, "Brother Chen, we can't go inside."

Chen Ming glanced at Han Fei; he didn't want to go inside either, but Ye Xiao was full of tricks, and if he truly had something on his father, that would be troublesome, especially since his father was currently in the race for the top seat of Minghai City.

The second-in-command of Minghai City and the top seat of Minghai City were completely different matters.

By this time, Ye Xiao had already walked into the security office, and Chen Ming followed nervously.

"Close the door," Ye Xiao said as he sat in the chair, looking at Chen Ming.

Upon hearing these words from Ye Xiao, Chen Ming frowned and asked, "Why should I close the door?"

"Because I asked you to," Ye Xiao said, raising an eyebrow.

Chen Ming heard this from Ye Xiao and said no more.

Chen Ming closed the door, his eyes fixed on Ye Xiao. He truly despised Ye Xiao to the bone and would willingly pay any price to take down Ye Xiao.

"What... What the hell do you want from me?" Chen Ming looked at Ye Xiao, his voice trembling a bit.

For some reason, when Chen Ming saw Ye Xiao's smiling face, he started to speak less clearly.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "I heard your old man is going to run for the top spot in Minghai City."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Chen Ming couldn't help but shudder internally. Why was Ye Xiao suddenly bringing up his father? Did Ye Xiao come to see him today because of his father?

Chen Ming asked, "What are you going to do?"

"As the second in command in Chen Minghai City, he has been dedicated to his work and is a role model for our generation. Therefore, as one of the many good citizens, I hope the second in command in Chen Minghai City can continue to be the second in command," Ye Xiao said with a smile.

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Chen Ming's face turned pale; then immediately looked toward Sun Yuze.

The person competing against Chen Maozhong for the top spot in Minghai City was Sun Yuze's father, Sun Bin. Now that Sun Yuze was under Ye Xiao, and Ye Xiao made such a statement, it was too obvious. Ye Xiao was clearing the way for Sun Bin.

Chen Ming said to Sun Yuze, "If you're brave enough, tell your old man to run for the top spot in Minghai City himself. Now you're getting Brother Xiao to say these things to me, what are you trying to imply? Are you even a man?"

Sun Yuze was at a loss for words by what Chen Ming said. In terms of strength, his father, Sun Bin, really couldn't contend with Chen Maozhong. It did seem rather underhanded to have Sun Bin become the top dog in Minghai City through Ye Xiao's threats.

"Why not say anything?" Seeing that Sun Yuze remained silent, Chen Ming immediately broke into laughter and said, "I knew it was your doing. Do you think your old man can stand up to my father just by virtue of his own skills?"

"I can." The words didn't come from Sun Yuze, but from Ye Xiao.

Chen Ming was in full swing when he heard Ye Xiao's response, and his gaze immediately fell on Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao took out a USB drive from his pocket with Chen Maozhong's indecent video on it, smiled at Chen Ming, and said, "I have a 'romantic movie' here, take a look."

A romantic movie?

Most young people know what those words mean, so Chen Ming also paused when he heard Ye Xiao's words.

Chen Ming looked at the USB drive in Ye Xiao's hand. He wasn't a fool; if Ye Xiao was giving him a romantic movie at this time, there must be something big behind it. What was Ye Xiao really trying to do? What was on that USB drive?

"What's... what's on this?" Chen Ming tentatively asked.

"I just told you, a 'romantic movie,'" Ye Xiao said, the smile on his face growing thicker. He looked at Chen Ming and said, "However, the leading man is your honored father."

Hearing Ye Xiao's last statement, Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately understood the meaning behind Ye Xiao's previous words, his eyes fixated on the USB drive in Ye Xiao's hand.

Ye Xiao watched Chen Ming's expressions and couldn't help but smile slightly. This was the effect he wanted. Then, looking at Chen Ming, he said, "Give this USB drive to your father as soon as possible. Otherwise, he won't just fail to become the top man in Minghai City, but he'll also disappear from the political scene."

After Ye Xiao finished speaking, he threw the USB drive straight at Chen Ming, who hurriedly caught it in a panic. He wasn't stupid; since Ye Xiao was willing to give him this drive, it definitely wasn't for no reason. There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Chen Ming looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "What are your conditions?"

"My condition? Heh, give up the position of the top man in Minghai City," Ye Xiao said with a laugh.

Chen Ming said, "You want Sun Bin to be the top man of Minghai City?"

Ye Xiao gave a smart snap of his fingers and said, "Smart."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Chen Ming felt his scalp tingle. There was once a time when his father mentioned Sun Bin; he never took him seriously, but now the person threatening his father's position as the top man in Minghai City was this Sun Bin.

"Brother Xiao, if there is nothing else, I'll be on my way," Chen Ming looked at Ye Xiao, feeling somewhat weak. He could already guess what was on the USB drive. He clearly remembered Han Fei saying that Han Zhimin had fallen from grace because of a video, and now Ye Xiao had a video as well.

Watching Chen Ming leave the security room, Sun Yuze immediately looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "Brother Xiao, do you think Chen Maozhong will compromise?"

"The influence of internet public opinion is very significant now," Ye Xiao said.

Sun Yuze paused for a moment when he heard Ye Xiao's words, then he smirked.

As Chen Ming walked out of the security room, Han Fei and Zhang Zihao immediately approached, asking what was going on.

Chen Ming was really furious at the time. It wasn't as bad until these two asked, which completely infuriated him, and he yelled at Han Fei and Zhang Zihao, "Get the hell away from me."

Taken aback by Chen Ming's sudden outburst, Han Fei and Zhang Zihao were very confused, exchanged glances, and then looked back towards the security room.

"Ah Hao, do you also have a grudge against Ye Xiao?" Han Fei looked at Zhang Zihao and asked.

Hearing Han Fei's words, Zhang Zihao angrily said, "Hmph, it's more than just a grudge. I've been chasing Qin Yulu for almost two years now, and damn it, today she embarrassed me. I didn't have many people with me at the time, but now that I have so many guys with me, I'm going to take him down."

"Ye Xiao is not just anyone, you know," Han Fei purposefully said with worry.

Hearing Han Fei's words, Zhang Zihao huffed, "Han, why do you boost someone else's morale? Today, I'll show you the rules of the Third Academy."
