บท 33: Mr. Jiang.
Chapter 33: Mr. Jiang.
"Who the fuck are you!? Where did you come from?" The barkeeper stuttered out as the man pushed the bat against his shoulder and pinned him to the wall with it. "That doesn't matter. All that does matter is that you tried to harm my boss's daughter." The man looked around the room and then back at the barkeeper. "And her friends
Haru looked at the man. Oh, He's a cultivator? He was at the middle stage of the core refining. Currently two full realms behind Haru. He seemed pretty competent with stealth techniques as Haru hardly sensed him as he made his way into the room.
"Suyin. Take your friends outside your dad is waiting there with the big boss. Tell him I will clean up this mess." Suyin jumped for a second. "Okay!" She shouted back to him. "Guy's follow me. She led her friends out of the karaoke bar. Haru followed close behind them.
"Princess! You're okay!?" A big muscled man ran up to Suyin and began to hug her and kiss her cheeks. "Dad, let go of me I'm not a baby anymore!" She cried out. Haru and the rest of the classmates chuckled. "Haru?" A voice called out from the car. The door opened as someone stepped out.
"Zen? Why are you here?" Haru was confused as his uncle stepped out of the car. "Why am I here? More importantly. Why are you here?" Zen was also confused. "I sent you a message didn't I? I already told you I was going to a karaoke place. Right?" Zen reached down to his pocket and pulled out his phone.
"Oh, You did. I must have had it turned off at the time. Did you see what happened here?" Zen walked over to Haru. "Ah, Yeah some guys came in and tried to rape my classmates. I was going to take care of it but that guy with the bat showed up."
"Haha, You were going to take care of it kid? Just how would you do that?" Suyin's dad walked over and put his hand on Haru's shoulder. He began to squeeze. Haru looked at him for a second before he realised he was trying to assert dominance over him. He then used his Qi to create pressure around him. He could no longer breathe as he was forced down to his knees.
"That is how." Zen began to laugh "Mr. Jiang. Let me introduce you to my nephew. He probably could have handled things here, what do you say?" Haru stopped as Mr. Jiang got to his feet. "Wait, Your nephew!? I'm sorry Mr. Hao I thought he was just a cocky kid I didn't expect him to be a master of cultivation at such a young age."
"Well, I'm not the one you should be apologising to. It's great to see you are doing okay Suyin." Zen walked over to Suyin and put his hand on her head. "Uncle Zen. What are you doing here!?" She shouted in excitement.
"I had to come and see if you were okay, didn't I? Your dad got really worried and called me to come with him." Zen and Suyin talked as Mr. Jiang bowed his head. "I'm sorry I shouldn't have tried to test your strength. I was just a bit excited to know my daughter is safe. I thought you were just boasting about being strong. Let me offer you this as an apology" He held out a stack of cash.
"No it's okay, I couldn't take money from you. Especially not in front of your daughter. It's okay let's just put it in the past." The man stood up straight again and put the money back into his jacket. "You are a good man. I should be punished for what I did but you are truly benevolent."
"It's nothing it was just a small matter..." He tried to speak but was pushed back slightly as arms wrapped around his neck. "Thank you. I thought you were actually going to leave for a minute back there. I'm sorry I judged you to be a bad person before seeing what you were actually doing." Suyin hugged him.
Mr.Jiang's face became filled with rage but as he met eye contacted with Haru he forced a smile and calmed down. Zen walked over and put his hand on his shoulder. "Ah, Blossoming romance. Isn't it beautiful?" He said with a sigh. Mr. Jiang looked at Zen. "You know. If they got married we would be related. No one would dare to mess with my family again with the great Mr. Hao looking out for us. Not to mention your nephew. I can't wait to see the type of man he will become. My daughter will be rich!"
"Yeah on second thought I will talk to Haru about it. I don't want to be related to someone as greedy as you." Zen laughed as Haru looked down at Suyin. "It's okay, It was a bad situation I don't blame you for being scared. You actually handled it better than I did. I was going to kill them all but I saw you send a message so I figured you would have someone come as reinforcement." He said as a dragging sound came from behind him. He turned around to see the man with the baseball bat.
"Boss, We came to an agreement." The man was holding a black bag that was around five to six feet in length. He dragged it across the floor and then pulled out his phone and called someone. "I'm calling about getting my clothes dry cleaned... Yeah, I'm at the Seven Headed Snake karaoke. That's great thank you." He said all in a monotone voice that made him sound almost robotic. Zen, Mr. Jiang, and the man with the baseball bat began to speak in private out of earshot from the children.
Haru decided to respect their privacy and not listen in to their conversation. Suyin wouldn't let go of Haru for some reason. She had been hugging him for about five minutes now. "What are you still doing?" Haru looked down at her. When she looked up to meet his gaze he was shocked. She had started to cry. "I'm sorry! I tried to act tough but since we are actually out of danger I think the reality of the situation we were just in has sunk in. It was scary. Don't hate me for this, please. It was supposed to be a date but you probably think I am a crybaby now."
She began to let go of Haru her grip becoming weaker. "Not at all. Your reaction is normal. I would feel even weirder if you didn't cry. So cry all you want to. You are safe now." Haru put his arms around her this time as she began to cry even more.
Haru held her as she wept. Tears ran down her face as Mr. Jiang turned around. "Oh no, princess what is it?!" He ran over to his crying daughter. "It' nothing I was just scared." She said as she gripped on to Haru tighter. The rest of their classmates were now looking over at the scene playing out in front of them. Haru, let go of her to go to her father. Mr. Jiang picked her up into the air and embraced her in the biggest hug he could perform. It was almost comical.
Suyin began to calm down as Haru walked over to Zen. "What is with the guy with the baseball bat?" He asked. Zen shushed him and then bent down to whisper. "I'm not sure. He started working for Mr. Jiang a few years ago. Nobody knows his real name but he calls himself the grim-reaper. Because where ever he goes he kills at least one person."
The grim-reaper looked at Haru. Haru held up his hand and waved at him. The grim-reaper sent his Qi toward him as a form of intimidation. Haru chuckled. Game on. He sent his Qi over to him. The grim-reaper struggled to stay on his feet as Haru smiled at him once again and then releasing him. It looked like he was preparing to attack but just as he moved a white van pulled up next to him.
It seemed to distract him as he got into the back of the van with the bag and then drove off into the distance. "Hey don't provoke him like that!" Zen hit Haru's head but it ended up hurting him more. He danced around in pain shaking his hand.
Haru laughed at him and then walked over to the group of classmates. "I'm sorry you guys had to experience all of this. Do any of you need help getting home? I can ask my uncle to get you guys a taxi. They all looked at him for a second. "Mr. Hao is your uncle?"
"Yeah, Why?" There was no time for an explanation as they made up excuses. "Actually, My mom is coming to pick me up. I just called a taxi." They all hurried away back out of the alley.
"We are heading back home now Haru! Hurry and get in the car." Zen shouted from behind. "Now? Okay, I'm coming." He didn't have time to collect his thoughts as he was called over by his uncle.
