All the eyes in the surroundings turned towards them all of a sudden. Tang Chen, who was eating the noodles, choked on his noodles and gave him a fierce look while coughing: "What's so strange about that!"
"Strange! "Of course it's strange!" Lee Hao quickly swallowed the noodles and pulled a chair to sit beside Tang Chen. With a nervous expression, he asked, "Do you really not know or are you just pretending not to know?"
"Know what?" Having finally calmed down, Tang Chen didn't have any appetite to eat anymore. He stared at Lee Hao warily to prevent him from approaching again.
Lee Hao looked around the restaurant carefully. After making sure that no one paid any more attention to them, he lowered his voice and said, "Do you know how powerful Boss Chu is in the United States?"
Tang Chen sniffed. "I don't know."
Lee Hao rolled his eyes and quickly explained in a low voice: "He's the boss that's sure to be the leader of the American gangsters!" Although Lee Hao's voice was lowered, it still attracted the attention of a few people. They looked at the two of them with a strange expression.
Tang Chen's expression froze for a second, then immediately tensed up: "You're saying, he's from the underworld?"
Lee Hao was stunned for a moment and then nodded his head... It should be possible to say the same in the underworld, even though it would only disappoint the reputation of a dignified godfather.
Was he a gangster?
Tang Chen frowned slightly as he sucked on the juice in front of him absent-mindedly … If his dad, big bro, and Second Brother knew that he was mixed with the underworld, they would definitely order him to go back.
"Chen? "Chen?" Lee Hao waved his hand in front of the stunned Tang Chen, "What are you thinking!"
"Nothing." Tang Chen pouted with a listless look: "I must not let dad know."
"What?"
"Oh, go on."
Lee Hao did not notice Tang Chen's absent-mindedness and continued to talk as if he was on stimulants, "I heard that the boss here was Boss Chu's biological grandfather, or some well-known family with a lot of power. Later on, someone came to seize territory. Boss Chu's grandfather was afraid that something would happen to his family, so he sent all his wife and daughters to China. Boss Chu was born in China, hmm … The marriage of a famous American family's daughter to a teacher was a hubbub at the time. "
"Why? When he heard Lee Hao talk about Chu Lingfeng's family background, Tang Chen couldn't help but feel a trace of interest. He opened his big, wet eyes and looked at Lee Hao.
Lee Hao swallowed his saliva and temporarily suppressed the unfathomable turmoil in his heart … He was clearly a man like her, but why was he even more attractive than a woman?
"Because the teacher is poor!" Lee Hao moved back a little, looking at that beautiful face at close distance and thought of a life: "I heard that the woman's family never agreed, and only accepted Boss Chu when he was seven years old. But after all, there was a huge gap between the two families, so Boss Chu and his father, who taught, still have to rely on someone else."
"What happened next?" Is he having a hard time with his father? "
Damn it! Can you not look at me with such a curious expression?
Did he not know how cute he was!
"..." Not really. Boss Chu's dad left his pen and went into politics to become a government official, so it's said that his family is a well-known family in the region. "
"Phew …" Tang Chen finally released the breath he was holding. That's good, you don't have to look at other people's faces …
Lee Hao stared at him strangely. "Chen, why do you seem so happy?"
"Is there?" Tang Chen's face instantly became hot. He quickly lowered his head and drank his own juice: "You …" "You're wrong."
"Chen, you're acting weird today."
"No, don't let your imagination run wild." Being stared at like that by Lee Hao, Tang Chen felt like his face was burning. If he knew it would be like this, he wouldn't have asked.
Lee Hao suspiciously stared at Tang Chen for a while before continuing, "Actually all of this sounds like it, but who knows if it's true or false! However, there is one thing that I am sure of, Boss Chu's background is not simple. "
If you don't know what you're talking about...
Tang Chen bit the straw in his mouth in dissatisfaction and said angrily: "Did you hear that again?"
"Of course not!" Lee Hao's eyes lit up with the fire of absolute admiration. "Boss Chu came to the United States alone five years ago and took less than half a year to settle all the small and big gangs here. Nobody dared to say no to Boss Chu here!"
"..." Do you know his name? " Tang Chen always sounded like 'Boss Chu', as if 'Boss Chu' was that man's name, and in the casino, the 'Shaotang' that seemed to have a good relationship with him could only call him 'Chu', not 'Chu'.
Don't tell me he doesn't have a name?
Lee Hao, who had never heard anyone call him 'Boss Chu' before, was rendered speechless by Tang Chen's question. He racked his brains for a long time, but couldn't think of anything to call 'Boss Chu'.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Tang Chen shot a disdainful glance at Lee Hao who was deep in thought. Then, he stood up and walked towards the washroom … He drank too much juice just now.
Seeing that someone went to the washroom on the opposite table, the two men who pretended to be talking exchanged a look. One of them walked towards Lee Hao, while the other went with him to the washroom.
"That Lee Hao!" Tang Chen, who was going to the bathroom, suddenly turned around the corner, scaring the man behind him. He quickly let him go into the bathroom. As for the person walking towards Lee Hao, he pretended to walk in the wrong direction and returned to his original position.
Tang Chen bumped into the man behind him at the same time. Although the man walked into the washroom behind Tang Chen after staring at him for only a few seconds, his vicious gaze immediately made Tang Chen alert. He turned around and looked at the man walking in.
"Chen, you called me?" Hearing Tang Chen call him, Lee Hao immediately beckoned to him. Tang Chen looked away in confusion and walked towards Lee Hao.
"What did you call me just now?"
Tang Chen was still thinking about that person just now. When he heard Lee Hao's question, he finally came back to his senses. He quickly asked, "Lee Hao, is Boss Zhang okay?"
Lee Hao shrugged, "I don't know either. The boss still hasn't gotten any news. I'm guessing he's still locked up in the casino."
"Ah?" "Then what should we do?" Tang Chen suddenly recalled that Chu Lingfeng said yesterday that he would dig up Zhang Quan's pair of eyes. If something happened to the boss, wouldn't he definitely lose his job?!
"Just wait." Lee Hao sighed. "I thought I could earn a bit more by coming to the United States, but who would have known that the boss would be cheating in a casino. Right now, I only hope that the Plum Blossom Casino will not hold us responsible, otherwise, not only will we not be able to get a ticket, but we will also lose our lives! "
"It can't be?" Tang Chen touched his two empty pockets, his heart slowly sinking... If he had known earlier, he would have owed him a sum of money.
"What will you do? Just leave it to fate. Let's see if the boss can still come back alive. First, put in the money for our return ticket."
"You don't have any money either?" Tang Chen's heart sank even more.
Lee Hao looked at the two bowls of noodles in front of him and shook his head. "I only have enough money to pay for this meal."
"…" Dong, now it's all sinking.
"Hey, aren't you going to the toilet? Why aren't you going? "
The moment Tang Chen heard Lee Hao say that he didn't even have the money to buy a plane ticket, he instantly became listless and sat back down gloomily: "I don't want to go again."
"If you don't go, I'll go. I can still hold it in." Lee Hao stood up, pulled up his pants and walked towards the bathroom.
"Li …" When Tang Chen heard that Lee Hao was going to the washroom, he immediately thought of the foreigner who went in just now. Just as he was about to call Lee Hao to stop, he saw him running into the washroom.
Tang Chen retracted his hand in embarrassment … Maybe he was being overly worried.
But after paying for this meal, they would be living on the streets?
Thinking about that, Tang Chen collapsed onto the table without any strength left in him.
Didn't you say that being a bodyguard can earn money? You can only live well and still gain the sense of superiority as a hero? But now, why did he fall to the point where he couldn't even go home, and he couldn't even afford to eat?
…
Boss Chu (magnanimous): Come back, I'll pay for your plane ticket.
Beauty Tang (Star-Eyes): Really?
Boss Chu smiled evilly: Shoot one hundred at a time.
Beauty Tang: "..."
