Chapter 1536: A Fight Between Two Beasts

Now that Daddy Bai wasn’t around, Winston was much more relaxed. He said with a smile, “It’s not for business. Lanky only said that because you guys were around. This money is for my men to buy equipment.”

“What equipment?” Bai Qingqing asked casually.

Winston replied, “In some transactions, where both parties don’t trust each other completely, we have to be armed. Otherwise, the other party will look down on us.”

“Then, how did you do it in the past? Haven’t things always gone smoothly previously?” Bai Qingqing asked, baffled.

Winston replied with a hint of embarrassment, “I asked them to bring toy guns that looked very realistic.”

“Pfft!” Bai Qingqing covered her mouth and chuckled for a good while, before saying, “In that case, you’ve got to take the money away. Or else, I’m going to get angry.”

Mommy Bai applied for leave and went home, and after casting a cold glance at Winston and Bai Qingqing, went to the bedroom to meet with Daddy Bai first.

The Bai residence was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. Regardless of how great a sincerity he showed, there was nothing he could do to eradicate the barrier between him and Bai Qingqing.

One was a triad boss with an unknown background, and the other was a high school student aged 16 or 17. No families would easily accept such a combination.

No, they couldn’t possibly accept it.

Of course, other than those money-grubbing families eager to sell their daughters for materialistic gains.

Shortly after, the doorbell rang once more. It was Mommy Bai who opened the door. When she saw who it was outside, she paused in surprise.

“Ke Di? Didn’t you say you were coming over tomorrow?”

No sooner had she finished her sentence did Curtis go around her and briskly strode inside.

“It’s you?” At the sight of Winston, flames nearly shot out from Curtis’s blood-red pupils. He even forgot to restrain his powers as rushed over in a flash.

The vigilant Winston instantly assumed a fighting stance.

The duo instantly broke into a fight in the living room.

Curtis and Winston fought in their human forms. The first to strike, Curtis reached straight for Winston’s neck, seemingly bent on strangling him to death.

Winston dodged sideways and casually threw out a punch at his head.

Curtis tilted his head and deflected 80% of the strength, his actions seemingly unaffected. He waved his left arm and landed a fist on Winston’s abdomen. His arm was like the tail of a giant snake, sending Winston flying out and producing a loud bang as he slammed against the wall TV.

“Ah!” Bai Qingqing shrieked and retreated to the wall.

The glass shards from the television set flew everywhere. Winston adjusted his posture mid-air and landed kneeling one knee on the ground amid the rain of glass.

Splatter!

The glass shards fell all over the floor. There were glass shards next to Winston’s feet and on his body.

The tiger and snake’s gazes met. Curtis’s pupils shrank and elongated, transforming into icy vertical slits. Winston’s facial muscles twitched, and the sharp fangs in his mouth could indistinctly be seen.

“Stop fighting!” Bai Qingqing screamed as she stood beside the wall, not daring to get near.

Her voice was like a fuse that triggered the war, for Curtis immediately pounced at the other party.

Winston took a step back and sprang up, getting embroiled in a fight in the air with Curtis once more.

Mommy Bai was stunned and only managed to react now. Fearless due to her ignorance, she immediately went up to pull the two of them apart.

“Stop fighting. Stop fighting. Talk it out nicely,” Mommy Bai said as she pulled back Curtis’s arm.

Daddy Bai had also rushed over and was pulling Winston back.

Winston immediately stopped. However, Curtis wasn’t the sort to be persuaded easily and took the chance to throw another punch at his face.

With a stiff neck, Winston prepared to fight him again. This time, Bai Qingqing dashed over and stood in the middle to separate the two of them.

That last punch caused a streak of blood to seep out from the corner of Winston’s lips. Bai Qingqing wiped it off for him with her hand and turned her head to give Curtis a reprimanding glance. Yet, when her eyes met with the furious and hurt look in his eyes, she didn’t have the heart to do so.
