Bab 79: Du Fu (2)
Du Fu walked arrogantly into his own bar. He wondered which woman came to find him while smirking to himself. Du Fu had a lot of women and he couldn't even remember their name. He didn't want to be tied down by one woman so he didn't bother to remember each of them.
When he met this woman, he knew that he would have to break another heart once again. Du Fu wasn't really a handsome fella but he had a slight charisma that stood out. His face had a manly atmosphere with a prominent jaw. He was thirty-something but looked younger than his real age. His tanned and muscular body added to his charm and indeed, it made a lot of women swoon when they saw him.
He was quite surprised with the vacant bar, unlike its usual liveliness. Du Fu saw the abnormality and asked the bartender, "Why is it so quiet today? Has it been like this from the start?"
The bartender really wanted to cry, not knowing how to answer the big boss. Their bar was quite popular among gangsters and there had never been a quiet night like this night --- of course, the boss would feel suspicious. "Er... Boss... not really?" The bartender could only mutter that.
Du Fu looked at his subordinate in annoyance, "What do you mean?"
"This happens because of the lady who is looking for you," The bartender decided to answer honestly.
"Where is that woman now?"
The bartender pointed at a secluded corner, "She's right there..."
Du Fu didn't miss the scared look on his bartender's face and he felt more irritated. He always selected his subordinates carefully and it made him think twice to continue hiring this coward. Du Fu walked to the corner and saw the back of that woman.
He was taken aback when he saw his lackey's swollen face and how docile he looked in front of the woman. This lackey was usually very arrogant and boisterous. "What happened to your face?" Du Fu asked in surprise.
The man winked and with his head movement pointed at Feng Xiao Qing. He desperately wanted to tell his boss that it was all because of that woman! The thought that it was all because of a mere woman didn't pass through Du Fu's mind and he asked his lackey in annoyance, "What happened to your eyes now? Did you have a spasm?"
The lackey started to feel that it was hopeless to warn his boss, after all, there was no chance for him or his boss to run away. His boss was charismatic, that was true. However, this woman's scariness was a whole other level! He got a feeling that his boss would also end up black and blue just like him.
"Du Fu ah~" Feng Xiao Qing called him lazily.
"What?!" Du Fu asked in annoyance. He somehow felt that this woman's voice was familiar and he could feel this chill on his back. However, he didn't exactly remember where he had heard that melodious voice before.
"Do I know you?" Du Fu asked once again, feeling irritated because the woman talked without even turned around and looked at him.
"Tsk... tsk... tsk... Of course... you know me really well..." Feng Xiao Qing said but she still didn't turn around to face him.
"Which one night stand are you?" Du Fu asked rudely.
Du Fu's lackey felt like finding a hole and hiding inside. 'Boss?! Why did you say the words that would offend the Big Buddha?!'
Feng Xiao Qing turned around and asked teasingly, "Oh... how many one night stand do you have? Have you ever slept with me? Why didn't I know that?"
Du Fu finally saw the woman's face. He started from the hair and it reminded him of someone, then he looked down and he saw an ugly face --- no no... not an ugly face, but ugly makeup. He seemed to have seen this woman somewhere but why couldn't he remember when and where? Then he looked down and he was able to see a hint of red on her stomach. He squinted his eyes to see it a bit more clearly. It looked like a tattoo. Red tattoo...
His eyes widened when he realized who the woman in front of him was. F*ck?! Red Jasmine?!!
"Why... why are you here?" Du Fu stuttered.
Feng Xiao Qing looked at him haughtily. "Didn't you recently do something to me? How can you forget about it already?"
"But... but... Da Jie (meaning: big sister)... I really didn't. I wouldn't dare to offend you!" Du Fu quickly explained with a pale face. Du Fu's lackey was surprised by his boss' behavior. His boss really knew this woman?! And... he seemed to be afraid of her too?
"Oh... but you did... What the last thing your group has been doing?" Feng Xiao Qing asked.
Du Fu tried to remember but there were a lot of things and he didn't seem to recall that any one of them had something to do with Red Jasmine. "I really don't know," Du Fu said weakly. If he knew... even if he was offered a lot of money, he wouldn't dare to accept the mission!
"Arson? Ring a bell?" Feng Xiao Qing asked softly but her voice became cold.
Du Fu thought for a little while and nodded his head carefully. "Yes... I received a job to burn an old house in a small and secluded area. The ones who live there are a mother-daughter pair. What's their connection with you?" Du Fu asked in puzzlement.
"Are you...?" He wanted to ask whether she was the mother but he didn't dare to finish the words. What kind of man dared to sleep together and became this scary woman's man? He really wanted to kowtow to the man for his bravery!
