Chapter 487: Kungfu

Xiao Luo exchanged the tokens into money and deposited them into his bank account again. Of course, he had returned the money he borrowed from Su Li and Shen Qingyan. They did not want a single cent for interest, so his trip to the resort hotel had put an additional three hundred million into his bank account.

“Mr. Leon, I appreciate your incomparable hospitality. On top of the sumptuous banquet, you even presented me with three hundred million, and that really made me felt embarrassed.” After leaving the casino, Xiao Luo patted on Leon’s shoulder and smiled at him.

Leon winced. F*ck, just give me back the money if you are really that embarrassed, he thought!

No words could fully describe Leon’s anger and frustration, and had Su Li been not here, he would definitely have ordered his subordinates to beat the hell out of Xiao Luo.

However, he could not afford to lose his image of being a good sport after losing all that money, so he just waved magnanimously and said, “Don’t feel that way, Mr. Xiao Luo. I absolutely play by the rules, and three hundred million is no different from three bucks to me. It’s not a big deal.”

“Right, right, right, I have forgotten that Mr. Leon comes from an extremely affluent family. This is indeed a small sum of money, a little appetizer for entertainment’s sake.” Xiao Luo replied, sniggering gleefully.

“Hahaha…”

Shen Qingyan, just by his side, was very amused, and she broke out in laughter. Then she suddenly stopped as she realized that it was thoroughly inappropriate to laugh at that moment.

When Leon heard the words “for entertainment’s sake,” he almost went nuts, for indeed, just for that sake, he had lost three hundred million in a mere hour. It would not have mattered to him usually, but he was now in a crucial phase where his family was observing him closely, so to mess up at such a critical moment would mean that he had lost far more than three hundred million.

“Mr. Leon, if you ever want to be entertained again, please call on me,” Xiao Luo said, feigning enthusiasm.

Inform you? Why you son of a b*tch!

Leon gave Xiao Luo a smile and replied, “Okay, I surely would, Mr. Xiao Luo.”

“Leon, if there’s nothing else, we shall excuse ourselves. I will hire a professional to tabulate the documentation of Liyue Media and estimation of various budget into a detailed report for you,” Su Li said. She had no intention of talking to Leon about meaningless sweet-nothings here.

“It’s still early, Sabrina. I would still like to get acquainted with your husband,” Leon said.

“Mr. Xiao, there is a special practice in the culture of Hua nation called ‘Kungfu,’ one could walk on the wall and fly over roofs with it, which is incredible! The people of Hua nation had invented many Kungfu styles based on animals, such as Mantis Boxing, Snake Boxing, Tiger Claw, and I have been mesmerized by Kungfu for a long time. I would like to know if Mr.Xiao Luo had practiced any of them?”

Xiao Luo was slightly stunned, but he soon shook his head and replied, “Oh, not at all!”

He was pretty sure about Leon’s purpose, but having won a whole three hundred million from him, he really felt reluctant to beat this fool up.

“Kungfu is the quintessence of Hua nation, and Mr. Xiao Luo had never practiced it? This is very unusual,” Leon said, and he raised his voice disdainfully.

Shen Qingyan chuckled. “Mr. Leon, maybe you have some misunderstanding towards Hua nation because not everyone here practices Kungfu,” she said.

Leon showed a disappointed face and expressed himself in no uncertain terms. “Oh? Really? It’s such a shame that I thought I could spar with Mr. Xiao using Kungfu,” he said, “Mr. Xiao, you should really pick up Kungfu. As Sabrina’s husband, you should be in the position to see to her personal safety.”

As he spoke, he dashed towards Su Li and carried her up—just like how a prince would carry a princess.

Leon shook his head as he stared at Xiao Luo. “Look, this is what happens if you don’t know Kungfu. If someone attempts to harm Sabrina, you can’t even retaliate but can only stand there helplessly,” he sneered.

“Leon, what are you doing? Put me down!” Su Li screamed. She was p*ssed off.

Leon responded, “Don’t be mad, Sabrina. I’m just pointing out to your husband a fact. As a man, he ought to be powerful, not a weakling, and useless trash. Should an incident occur, how can he even protect himself, let alone protect you?” He put her down and took the opportunity to grope her buttocks in the process.

“You…”

Su Li was enraged and immediately tried to slap Leon’s face.

However, Leon was too quick for her and grabbed her hand before it reached his face. He winked and gave her a cunning smile. “Forgive me, Sabrina, I did not touch your buttocks on purpose!” he said.

Su Li was so exasperated that she clenched her teeth hard, stared at him coldly, and said, “Is this the conduct of a gentleman?”

“Sabrina, I really did not do it on purpose, I swear!” Leon put on a sincere look and swore with his fingers raised like a boy scout.

Xiao Luo interjected and said, “I believe that Mr. Leon didn’t do it on purpose.”

Leon was slightly surprised by Xiao Luo’s response. He smiled and said, “Mr. Xiao Luo is right… so he understands me after all.”

“Of course I do because you obviously did it intentionally.” Xiao Luo retorted, staring at Leon coldly as any protective man would. He could never tolerate his wife being taken advantage of.

Hmm?

Leon frowned and said, “What do you mean, Mr. Xiao Luo?”

“It’s nothing, by the way, about the Kungfu thing… you wanted to spar, right?” Xiao Luo posed the question as he pulled Su Li behind him.

Leon nodded as he raised his brows and said, “Yeah, that’s right, but you have never practiced it before, isn’t it?”

“That’s correct, but I have practiced some form of mixed martial arts before.” Xiao Luo said. He had not intended to give this fool another lesson, but he was really asking for it.

“Mixed martial arts?”

Leon was slightly shocked, but he soon broke into a deep smile. “I have practiced mixed martial arts too. Why don’t we spar on the lawn?”

Xiao Luo smiled back at him. “That would be a good idea,” he replied.

This smile in Leon’s eyes looked like a jester’s smirk before getting a good beating, but in Su Li’s and Shen Qingyan’s eyes, it was a rather eerie grin. They both knew that Xiao Luo was extremely good at fighting, and the memories of Bode Villa were etched in Su Li’s mind forever.

As for Shen Qingyan, she would never forget that after Xiao Luo had secured the deal with the maternity and child care center, he had barged into the room of her uncle, Shen Xingqing, and broke one of his arms. Thankfully, he was admitted to the hospital on time for treatment and saved his arm. This revealed to her Xiao Luo’s dark side.

This was one cruel dude who’d always stick to his word!

“You guys are really sparring?” Shen Qingyan asked.

This was Su Li’s question too. She felt good that Xiao Luo was attempting to stand up for her, but what if he injured Leon grievously? It wasn’t what she wanted to see.

“As the host, how can we disappoint our special guest? Am I right, Mr. Leon?” Xiao Luo quipped, smiling broadly.

“That’s right, it’s just a simple sparring session. It could be counted as a form of bilateral cultural exchange,” Leon pitched in, fully agreeing with Xiao Luo. But inwardly, he was laughing mirthlessly. Such a dumbass! You are literally setting yourself up for your own demise, he thought to himself.

Su Li reminded Xiao Luo, “Since you have made up your mind, then don’t overdo it. Don’t forget, he is our business partner, after all.”

Leon actually misunderstood that it was for him, so he laughed and said confidently, ” Rest assured, Sabrina. I won’t hurt your husband.” He then yelled at his subordinate, “Go to the car right now and get my boxing gloves.”

“Roger that.”

The subordinate turned around and sprinted toward the direction where Leon had parked the car.
