Chapter 5

 

Han Xue’s appearance made her seem gentle and quiet, but her temperament was more similar to Ye Qian’s. She was very tough, and once she decided on something, it became hard to change her mind. Unable to persuade her, Ye Qian promised to go back home and let her take care of Lao Die. Besides, Lao Die’s injuries were nothing life threatening, Ye Qian could rest a.s.suredly. It was now more important to give his father justice and find that rich upstart who beat him up. Yes, he would make sure his father got the justice he deserved.

Although he felt like there were still countless of things he wanted to converse with Lao Die about, these weren’t very pressing as of the moment. In any case, Ye Qian was prepared to stay at his home town, so there was enough time for that later.

After Lao Die stopped speaking, Ye Qian decided it was time to leave the hospital.

Eight years have pa.s.sed since he left his hometown, but he did not know the whereabouts of the people he knew anymore. If would be hard to track the wealthy man when he barely say the man’s face, but Ye Qian wasn’t the hardheaded and impulsive kid he was back then. In those eight years as a mercenary, he learned a lot of things.

Upon returning home, he decided to take a shower. Afterwards, he used his memory to draw out a simple portrait of the wealthy man. After looking over it for some time, he felt nothing he had covered as much detail as he could recall and felt satisfied with his work.

When asking for information, the best two sources would be policemen and street hooligans. Ye Qian did not naturally want to go to the police, as he felt like he would just be told that the information he asked for could not be disclosed. He decided it was much better to go for the other option as it wasn’t difficult to just pay these people off for information.

It was ten at night, Ye Qian wore a simple casual outfit. He went out to get a taxi and then drove to nearby bars. He arrived at a district littered with drinking pubs, it was a place filled with punks and all sort of people. Ye Qian had a feeling it wouldn’t be difficult to find a person to ask for information.

Before long, the car came to a b.u.mpy halt in front of the door of a bar. Ye Qian took a glance and knew that even though the bar was small, the business was probably doing well. It was almost always packed, men and women were wildly swaying their bodies to the sound of loud music.

Ye Qian went inside the bar and sat down and decided to order a gla.s.s of cold beer. His eyes swept slowly across the room and he took in the variety of dyed hair and the multiple designs of tattoo that were all over the body of teenagers. He couldn’t remember much of his own rebellious period, he suddenly thought. He was similar back then, and lived in places like bars for entire days. Although he hadn’t dyed his hair, and he didn’t have tattoos all over, he drank and fought on almost a daily basis. He didn’t realise back then how much this lifestyle hurt his father, but he always felt a pang of regret for his actions. Back then, he was a true delinquent back in the days.

The bartender of the bar was a young woman, about twenty-five to twenty-six in appearance, her face was white and gorgeous and she was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with a charm that seemed to make one’s very soul attracted to her. Her chest were like large waves that were ready to burst open. As Ye Qian came in, the beautiful bartender looked at him for a long time, she had worked here for two to three years already, but it was the first time for her to see such a manly person. Especially those pair of eyes, it was deep and endless like the vast expanses of the sky, a person could not help but be mesmerised by them.

“Handsome guy, is this your first time here? I haven’t seen you here before.” the beautiful bartender said as she raised her brow while deliberately leaning her body forward, a pair of huge white rabbits swaying concurrently with this motion.

Ye Qian understood that although bartenders didn't have powerful backgrounds, they had the advantage of knowing all sorts of people. If he wanted to help find a person, perhaps he needed her a.s.sistance. After all, even if he asks someone else, they may not necessarily be able to help out. Now that they were speaking, he couldn’t really refuse to continue the conversation. Ye Qian wasn’t some upright gentleman. He smiled while nodding, and said: “Yes, I just returned today. Business seems to be doing well at this bar. I’m afraid a lot of people seem to be just here for you? I have gone to many bars, but I’ve never come across a woman bartender like you.” Ye Qian did not waste much time praising her, his mouth slightly formed itself into a crooked smile.

Hearing what Ye Qian said, the cute bartender felt flattered and smiled. She happily and excitedly said, “Handsome guy, you really know how how to flatter someone. The owner of the bar is Hu Ge, no one dares to stir up trouble, we are naturally doing well because of that.”

Ye Qian did not know Hu Ge, but if he managed this kind of bar… even if he was not a triad member, he is probably somehow related to the triad. Ye smiles, and says: “Beautiful girl, can I ask you about a person?”

“Well, who do you want to find? If we’re talking about information, then I have a lot of my own ways to get that.” the beautiful bartender said with a smile.

He took out the portrait of the man who he had sketched out and said: “I want to find this man.”

The beautiful bartender took a look and asked: “What is his name?”

“I don’t know, I only know that he arrived here yesterday and that he beat up an old man at the airport. Is there no way to find him? Ye Qian asked.

A moment of silence, the beautiful bartender then said: “No problem, but you may need to wait for some time. Leave your phone, and when I have news, I will inform you.

“Good!” Ye Qian readily agreed, he took the pen from the beautiful bartender’s hand then wrote down his phone number.

“The price is two thousand, but this is more troublesome, so I will charge three thousand, and you need to pay beforehand. If we can’t find anyone, the deposit is not refundable.” the beautiful bartender skilfully said. Although she wasn’t a figure from the underground world, she was considered as one of Hu Ge’s people. She helped Hu Ge and his people receive some small business, after all, it was just about looking for people. Every time she received business, she got 10 percent commission. Although it wasn’t much, she considered it as some extra income. Helping people and helping oneself, how can anyone have anything against this. Although she had a good impression of Ye Qian, this was standard practice, and it could not be broken.

Ye Qian did not bargain, he immediately took out two thousand from his pocket and said: “The remaining 500 is for you to get yourself a drink.”

The beautiful bartender wasn’t affected by this, she answered with a smile and said: ”Thanks boss, wait for my good news.”

Ye Qian nodded slightly and said: ”I’m leaving”, he got up and walk towards outside.

“Boss, my name is Xiao Long Nu!” the beautiful bartender shouted.

Ye Qian can’t help laughing then turned his back and said: “ I will remember.” after speaking, he smiled and went out. Xiao Long Nu, she is like a fairy, Ye Qian could not think of any similarity between them both. If anything, he thought, it’s that they are probably both not virgins.
