Li Qing had short neat hair, wearing a night gown with some make up on her face, she walked around inside the bar. An elegant aura along with her devil like body shape, especially those long thin legs, attracted the gaze of many men.

But what n.o.body noticed was that in her handbag, there was a small hole, a pinhole camera was capturing all the scenes in Volcano Bar.

“It all depends on this. If I can get footage of the drug dealing here, it’d be huge news.”

Li Qing was Zhongdu TV station’s trainee reporter. She was beautiful and had strong work capabilities, even when she was in university she was already the media club’s chief editor. After joining the City’s TV station, she had planned to make it big, but reality was cruel.

Reporters who were able to make it into the City’s TV station basically had their own sources and information webs. Li Qing was a newbie in this aspect, thus although she could make ends meet, the truly big news were never available for her.

Moreover, a 50 year old holding a high position in the station had wanted to get ‘closer’ with her but after she rejected him, she had gotten completely isolated, basically only having menial ch.o.r.es for her at the station.

Thus, she dragged along a colleague, impersonating a student, and sneaked into this rumoured gathering spot, and filmed all the underground dealings. Once this has been exposed, it’d immediately become a huge hit and she could be famous at once.

Now years from now, when thinking of her actions this day, Li Qing might laughed at her childishness, but at that moment, she was very serious about it.

After roaming for 2 hours, other than the place being crowded and noisy, she could not find any illegal dealings and she started to get anxious.

At this moment, Li Qing felt a strong force pushing towards her, her shoulder collided with a man, and slightly losing her balance, she almost fell to the ground.

The man was around 1.9m tall, a large muscular body frame that does not give off the feeling of obesity. He had an unpleasant expression like someone had owed him a million dollars.

Rubbing her shoulders in pain, Li Qing stared at the man but as she did not want to cause any unnecessary problems, she left after the man had apologised.

Li Anping seeing the girl who was knocked over did not find trouble, turned around and walked away. He looked at the bar counter to see 3 blonde hair western girls, wearing only a bikini dancing wildly on a pole, a few times their b.r.e.a.s.t.s jiggled out but was pushed back in.

The heavy metal music reverbed the place as the crowd went wild with their cheers and drinking. Seeing this, Li Anping frown intensified. He looked around trying to find a target. The reason he came to Volcano was to find a few sc.u.mbags he could absorb souls from, doing it stealthily to replenish his energy. Secondly, he wanted to get gather information on Huo Qing and Shang Zheng Bang.

However, this was the first time he had seen such an unrestrained, immoral place causing his mood to get even worse after the barbeque store. He did not do anything though as before he has the strength to oppose the government, he did not plan to expose himself. Thus, he contained the rage within him and continued to stroll among the sea of humans. Until the moment where his rage bursts out completely.

Shang Zheng Bang got up to go to the toilet, but found Li Qing who was padding around the dance floor. It piqued his interest and after whispering to a few of his guards, he returned to his private room.

Few minutes later, a man was brought into Shang Zheng Bang’s private room by the bar’s security, the man with his tear stricken face handed a cigarette to Shang Zheng Bang and said: “Young Master Shang, I brought my sister here to explore the place, she’s still a student.”

A security guard beside him said: “Probably a student from the nearby school, they like to come here but don’t know the rules.”

Shang Zheng Bang kicked the cigarette away from his hand and patted his face, smiling: “Student? That’s good, I’m just asking her to come and drink with me, I’m not asking her to sell herself. What’s the problem, am I right guys? Hahaha!!” The group of men and women sitting beside Shang Zheng Bang also started laughing.

The man could not believe what he said, at this point his back was bent as he’s near the point of crying, saying pitifully: “Young Master Shang, that’s really not possible, she’s a student.”

But who knew before he had finished his sentence, one of the men picked up a beer bottle and smashed it on his head. The man’s face was full of blood but he curled on the floor not daring to move.

“f.u.c.ker, rambling on and on, so what if she’s a student? Young Master Shang inviting her for a drink is her honor, she dares to not give face?”

Shang Zheng Bang proudly laughed, feeling that he had the aura of a mafia boss, he imitated them by taking a drink of his alcohol and then stopped the man, saying: “Enough Leopard, they’re just students, why are you being so fierce, you’ll scare the children.”

The man on the floor had already been scared out of his wits, although he frequented bars, this time he was dragged out by Li Qing to impersonate students at Volcano Bar, to speak the truth, it was because he was infatuated by her good looks. Although he had a decent reputation at the bar, when confronted by real hooligans there was no way he could be a match for them.

Moreover, this Leopard was in charge of taking care of Volcano bar, he and his men reputed to cause deaths when they engage in gang fights. There were rumors that in the past when a gang came to find trouble, he punctured the other party’s kidney on the spot, and the second day he buried the corpse with no implications.

“f.u.c.ker, Young Master Shang is being benevolent, why aren’t you kneeling down yet!” Leopard scowled.

The man could not care about his injuries and quickly got up to kneel in front of Zhang Zheng Bang, lowering his head: “Sorry Young Master Shang.”

Leopard took a look at Shang Zheng Bang’s expression and shouted: “Slap yourself, don’t stop until we give you permission!”

On the sofa, Shang Zheng Bang took a sip of wine, putting one hand on a model’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s as he touched while hearing the slapping sound, he felt like he was on the top of the world.

An eye for an eye, proudly controlling the triads, at this moment, Shang Zheng Bang felt that this was the life he wants to lead. It frustrated him to no end that his father wanted him to get involved in politics or take over the business.

After a while, Li Qing was brought in by the security guards as well, and seeing her colleague kneeling on the ground, she gave a look of silent anger. But quickly, she was pushed into Shang Zheng Bang’s arms by the men in the room.

At this moment, a wave of laughter could be heard as a fat man wearing a flowery shirt, with a thick gold chain on his neck walked in, behind him was a dozen or more henchmen in full black attire. While walking in, the fatty laughed and said: “Young Master Shang, it’s been a while, weren’t you going overseas? I can’t believe you found the time to come here.”

“Big Fei!!! Fatty Fei!!!” Shang Zheng Bang laughed: “You’re late, punish yourself with three shots!”

Seeing that Fatty had drunk all 3 cups, Shang Zheng bang clapped: “Good, Fatty Fei, it痴 all thanks to you that I managed to get my revenge. That d.a.m.n couple who dared to interfere in my business.”

“You’re too polite Shang, once I heard it was Young Master Shang’s affair, the fact that you called me was an honor already.”

If anyone outside had dared to fall him Fatty Fei, they would immediately leave with broken limbs, but as it was Shang Zheng Bang, the fat man only laughed and drank another bottle of wine on the table in one gulp.

“How’s your future wife? She didn’t come?”

“Shi Shi is pregnant, dad wants us to stay in town, otherwise I’d have flown to Amester by now, enjoying my life.”

Fei nodded, and looked at the man on the floor: “Young Master Shang, nice interest, teaching the little ones yourself.”

“Immature students, of course I have to teach them how to be a decent human being.” Shang Zheng Bang picked up his wine gla.s.s and pointed at J: “This is my bodyguard, J, he just flew over from Amester, I regard him as my brother. This is Fatty Fei, in charge of the underground business in South Zhongdu, Brother Huo’s capable right-hand-man.”

Although J’s skin-tone was dark, he spoke very fluent Great Xia language, and upon seeing Fatty Fei, he toasted him without being reserved.

“Good, this brother sure is forthright!”

Immediately, the three started to converse and complimented each other, talking about their respective stories. After a few drinks, they all became close brothers.

At times they pointed at the man kneeling on the ground, and everyone laughed seeing his swollen cheeks.

Li Qing who was in Shang Zheng Bang’s arms felt her body stiffen. For someone who lived in the ivory tower since she was young, she had never experienced anything like this. At this moment, she deeply regretted coming to a place like Volcano bar, she was so frightened in her heart that her tears were about to flow out.

Shang Zheng Bang found this more interesting as he chuckled and moved one hand into Li Qing’s innerwear, starting to rub against it.

“Stop… it.”

“Don’t stop… don’t stop.” Seeing her struggling, Shang Zheng Bang got more excited, and both his arms swam around her body, causing her to shriek.

Finally, no longer able to withstand this humiliation, Li Qing sent a tight slap across Shang Zheng Bang’s face, and the surroundings immediately became silent.

Since there’s no turning back, although there’s still tears on her face, Li Qing continued to slap him. But this time, her wrist was caught by Shang Zheng Bang.

“s.l.u.t!” Shang Zheng Bang grabbed her head and smashed it on the table with an angry expression.

“Asking for death.” Shang Zheng Bang continued by slapping her over and over.

Shang Zheng Bang seeing the surrounding people frozen in shock, screamed: “What are you all doing? Come here and beat her to death!”

The bar’s guards exchanged a glance with each other, not wanting to hit a woman, no one stood up.

Fatty shouted at this point: “What are you all waiting for? Young Master Shang already gave his instructions, let me tell you, from now on, Young Master Shang’s instructions are as good as mine. This b.i.t.c.h dared be so brazen, beat her to death.”

Finally, a few unwilling guys came out and grabbed Li Qing from the sofa, and ignoring her struggles and cries, gave her a few punches.

Few minutes later…

Li Qing lied motionless on the ground, tears and blood fused into one. The surrounding ladies looked with trepidation but no one dared to say a word.

“Almost dead huh…”

Seeing that Shang Zheng Bang got bored, Leopard quickly came and toasted him while saying a few jokes to lighten the atmosphere.

What was left is one man still kneeling on the ground slapping himself, beside him was a woman who was beaten into a pulp, with all sorts of injuries on her body, muttering inaudible words, about to lose her consciousness any moment.

“Shang… Zheng… Bang!!”

Li Anping growled under his breath, his eyes shone with traces of red light.

Li Anping was looking at Shang Zheng Bang’s private room, where he was surrounded by women, a kneeling man in front of him and his legs resting on a girl on the ground, while he laughed heartily. That smile was like a knife stabbing into Li Anping’s chest.

“Don’t be impatient, wait till you grow up completely, only then can you take revenge on all of them in your strongest form, by then there’d be no danger no matter what you do to them.”

Black urged in Li Anping’s mind, but it was like the latter did not listen to him.

“He’s still laughing… he can actually still laugh…” Li Anping started shaking with his fists clenched tight: “After harming so many people… how can he still laugh.”
