Day 2 Evening talks and dumb decisions Part 3 Just a little business

The females were sitting on the couch next to the big boss of the area, Zhuo Tianhao. They shivered scared a little as one of the lackeys was forced to cut off his hand a few minutes ago. Yang Chao was roughed up a little, having tried to stop it. The other lackeys pissed themselves scared and were not much help.

'What the hell are we going to do now!?' Yang Chao's mind was running a mile a minute. His fathers' name meant nothing to these guys and he might have even caused trouble for him. They greatly miscalculated the situation. 'That country bumpkin had the idea to get out of here earlier! Now look at the situation!'

"What are we going to do Ranran?" Mengmeng asked whispering. By the looks of it, they seem to know who Rongfei was connected to and were a little reluctant to go to far. The booze whowever was defintely changing that altogthor. But the guys not so much. "Can you call your dad to help?"

"And get in deeper trouble?!" Ranran was not wanting to do that at all.

"Ranran!" Aunty Tang yelled running to her daughter. "What have you gotten yourself into child!?"

"Mom!" She was quite happy considering the situation. Running over like a child to seek the comfort of her parent.

"Humph! Brother Hao, you dare mess with my daughter and her friends eh!"

"I do." The woman may have some pull with her family but that does not mean she could throw her weight around in his place. "Take your brat and the girl next to her! The rest are staying with me for a bit!"

"See, not even a problem." Rexford was leaning against the wall watching everything unfold. "Man that hand looks jacked up. Maybe they can still save it?" Looking at the blonde clutching his severed limb, it did look salvageable. If he didn't lose to much blood first. "Just need to get to the hospital first."

"Who the hell are you?" Zhuo Tinhao met some weird punks in his day, but this was the weirdest. 'Not even scared in the least. Even joking over the matter. His eyes have mostly rested on the woman, and barely any other.'

Moving to the drinks on the table, Rexford looked the drinks over fixing a quick one. Straight vodka with a single ice cube. Drinking it with a very pleased expression.

The observation was not missed by Ranran and Rongfei. They both felt slightly irked.

"Brother Hao, I have already apologized and my friend needs a hospital." Yang Chao attempted to diffuse the situation even further. "Let it end here."

"Hmm, fine." Zhuo Tinhao didn't pay any attention to him. "You can go.. but he stays. Who told you can drink my alcohol?"

"Me, myself, and I. What kind of Host are you to not offer a drink?" Rexford fixed another and looked over the fiery redhead draped over Zhuo Tinhao. "Or offer me a meal like the one you have?" He licked his lips causing the woman to shudder a little. "Over their with that straight snack.. man I am just envious."

"Humph bold one aren't you." Zhuo Tinhao watched as Rexford moved to sit down crossing his leg over his knee. He gave his thigh a pat. Dusting off just for the sake of it. "The rest of you.. get the hell out." Seeing them not moving, he threw the glass directly at Aunty Tang. "I said get out!"

*Fwip!* A small object hit the glass in the air. Knocking it to the side. Everyone looked at the glass shatter with an ice cube mixed inside it.

"What in the world just happened?" Yang Chao voiced.

"You can not stay here with them." Ranran said in a panic.

"You should go before you cause any more problems." Rexford eyed her coldly. "After all.. this is both your fault and their own." He pointed at Mengmeng and the blond who was about to pass out. "Don't worry about my business and take care of yourself."

Ranran felt hurt but thinking if she would have pushed Mengmeng to change her mind, this could have been avoided. By the looks of it, Rongfei was not wanting to leave him as well.

"Come on Ranran." Aunt Tang pulled her daughter away. The rest following with a scurry. The moment she was out the door, she was already calling someone to help with the situation. 'Please pick up!'

"You got balls, but nobody makes a fool of me." Zhuo Tinhao said. "You need to be shown who runs Chuzhou. He gestured to his muscle to deal with things. "Kick his ass for acting to cocky."

"You just ran your mouth to much!" Biao was a pretty built dude with good skills. For a street bawler anyway with a little military fighting style.

"I know of you." Rexford smiled pleased. During the time he fixed the drink, he was pulling on his memories to try and remember the situation's original course. "The number one fixer for Zhuo Tinhao. Jacked up your military career by putting the smackdown on your trainer. Temper it seems."

The words spoken pissed Biao off. It was a sore spot that only served to continue and ruin his life everytime it was brought up.

"Shut your mouth!" Biao charged forward at the sitting Rexford. His hands slipped to the back putting on some spike dusters. "I can punch through wooden doors, imagine what I will do to your flesh!"

"Nothing." Rexford smirked. He was enjoying himself a good bit. Raising his hand up, he flicked his fingers one by one. "I am going to make you stronger than punching through doors. Well.. if your boss takes my deal that is."

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!* Four cones of air shot out no bigger than an inch. Four direct hits in the chest sent Biao flying back. He landed face up spewing blood after a single aerial flip.

Before Zhu Tinhao could signal the rest f his guys to take out Rexford, a phone started ringing.

"Excuse me just a moment." Rexford raised his hand sending a force of qi out. The men behind Zhuo Tinhao were sent flying into the wall brutally. Most of them worse of than Biao. "Hello, what is it Xiao Qi?"

'Xiao Qi, if that is who I think it is, then this young man might have a background to consider.' Zhuo Tinhao had the woman tend to his guys. It wouldn't be good to loose so many in one day. The good news was Biao was still breathing. "Who is that yelling?"

Out in the hall, a voice was yelling for Rexford. The female's voice was getting louder.

"Rexford! Where are you!?" It was Wei Ziqing.

"By the way, the young miss is looking for you. Didn't know you were the one she was sneaking off to visit." Xiao Qi teased. "I am actually coming to pick her up after her father caught wind of her sneaking out to meet someone. The general is quite strict."

"Yeah, I hear her now. Well, I am just talking with Zhuo Tinhao about business." Rexford stood up and sat the drink back down on the table. "He has some good vodka. Defintely want to find his supplier."

"Heh, you drink. That is not good for you." Xiao Qi had a few more herbs to pass on in the vehicle. He was actually going to drop it off after picking up Wei Ziqing, so this helped. "Let me speak with brother Hao right quick, help with your business a little."

"Sure." Rexford tossed the phone over. "He wants to talk with you." Moving to the door after, he waved the young Wei heiress over.

"Brother Qi.. it is really you!" Zhuo Tinhao say shocked into the phone. Seeing Ziqing at the door, he leaned back in an almost daze. A little yelling over the phone got him to focus. "No! No! I didn't doubt your voice!"

As the two talked things over, Rexford borrowed Wei Ziqing's phone to make a call.

"Hey Aunt Tang, do you know anyone in the entertainment industry?"

"You crazy boy, where are you!? Did you run away!? Who phone are you calling from?!" Aunty Tang was frantic. The driver had insisted on driving this time. They rushing to the hospital still. Receive the answers she was still not calm. "I will have the driver go back to pick you up after we drop off Mengmeng's friend."

"That is not necessary. About what I asked." Rexford didn't want her wasting time. "I will keep in touch later, have some matters to see to. Stay safe." Hanging up, a thought popped up to check on someone. "A few pictures here and there and that should help."

Talking with the staff to have them take a few pics for him, Rexford thanked them and sent the pics to his email. Then to An Youya, and the friends of the original Chen Fan. Out of all the people from the series, he felt a small weird disconnection with her when pulling on memory regarding specifacally her.

Whether it was from removing the emotional attachment to her or the fate of her overall beg the question to really get involved and change the situation.

She was after all a remarkable young woman to look at. Returning to the others, he was disappointed no message back came from Aunt Tang.

Loggoing out of his email in someone elses phone, Rexford passed it back to the owner.

"Wei Ziqing Mr.Rexford, sorry about my manners." Zhuo Tinhao bowed. His attitude more agreeable overall.

"Never mind that, let's sit and go over business instead." Rexford gestured to sit down. "You as well Ziqing, after all, we are allies yes?"

"Of course. Let me just inform the others to head back first." Sending a quick message on her phone, she sent word for them to just take a taxi back. She would ride with Xiao Qi after wrapping up business. "Who is this by the way?"

"Someone I would like to get to know better. But especially this one." Pointing at the down Biao, Rexford walked over and fed him a Vortex Spirit Enhancing pill. "Gonna treat some problems in him to get ready to treat your grandfather."

"I am sure you don't mind brother Hao." Xiao Qi answered for Wei Ziqing. Eyes a little hard.

"Yes, I trust no real harm will come to Biao." Zhuo Tinhao was no fool and understood the importance of Old Wei getting better.

"Biao, focus on the feeling building in your chest, ignore everything else in the room." Rexford instructed. The four attacked points in the chest were to help try something later. He was planning on taking Biao out of here one way or the other. This just worked out in his favor more. "The energy in your chest will only rise, but everywhere else will begin to hurt.. right about.. now."

*Bloop!* Dark bubbles started to leave from the man's body. Rexford's eyes glowing brightly as black spots lit up on Biao's body. He could see the energy travel as gold lines lead to what needed to be corrected.

Hitting spot after spot directing the gold qi, those who looked on thought they were witnessing a miracle. Scars and cuts on the body healed over. Even ones from when he was really little.

Wei Ziqing watched with bated breath. She was very optimistic for her grandfathers treatment overall. The effects of the pills on themselves was one thing, but seeing them work to such a degree made her understand how precious the Vortex Spirit Enhancing Pills were.

As that finished up, Rexford passed out a few regular Spirit Enhancing Pills. Just to fix the damage and make thoe lackesy of Zhuo Tinhao healthier.

"I am sure you want to grow you empire. But how many enemies do you have in the country that are beyond your means?" Rexford leaned back make his offer as plain as day. "Let me take care of them and you run things when it is done."

"What do you get out of it?"

"I get to have a good time and gain connections to the Undergorund more. My allies will operate in the light while I take care of the shadows. You already work in both so not much of problem for you to help balnce the two positions for now." Wei Ziquing looked a little troubled at this. "Wei Ziquing here will handle the light for me until I find some one more approiate. After all, don't want to get her involved in something really.. illegal."

"Humph, I am not scared to get dirty!" It was bravado but time would tell if she could change to that type of person.

"As for Biao, I need someone like him to help with matters. I am short on people. Like really short. Biao fits the criteria of what I am looking for. So does that woman with you.. but something tells me you won't part with her."

"I will not!" Zhuo Tinhao barked back. He reflexively placed a hand in front of the redhead. "Biao, caa leave with you if he wants!" Xiao Qi calmed Zhuo Tinhao down pretty quickly. "You are bad for ones health Mr.Rexford. You've got skill, but how would you fair against a gun?"

"Pull out a gun and shoot me point blank!" Rexford smiled at him sticking out his tongue. He wanted to freak them out just for the laughs. "Come on, if I don't go down, you have to pay me a smooth million!"

Wei Ziqing was about to object but seeing how Rexford was smiling, well grinning like a lunatic she wanted to see what would happen. her heart pounding loudly in her chest. Only martial masters og legend would be capable of stopping firearms.

Zhuo Tinhao pulled out a gun and put right against Rexford's head. The entire room turned deathly quiet.

Biao stared ublinking at the two. A strange feeling rose in him as he coulsd still feel the qi from the Vortex Spirit Enhancing Pill running through his body. His blood pumping faster as adrenaline spiked higher.
