Song Yongrui did not know what his mother was thinking. If he heard her prayers, he might blow up out of annoyance.
He had just returned to the Cao family's main mansion because his mother was there. However, he was not used to staying in that place so he usually didn't stay there and instead hung out with his friends.
Tonight was not any different from the previous ones. As soon as he greeted his mother and saw there was nothing for him to do in the mansion, he called his friends and arranged a small party out of the blue because he was feeling bored.
Sitting inside one of the private rooms in a club, Song Yongrui waited until the room was filled with people and alcoholic drinks.
The music was loud and the smell of alcohol and perfume soon invaded one's senses. Song Yongrui was having fun once again as though the previous boredness in his bones didn't happen at all.
"Hey, bro! I just saw something really interesting."
One of his pals suddenly leaned closer.
Song Yongrui raised his brows in askance.
His pals didn't shy away as he said while pulling out his phone: "Look at here... Isn't this your brother?"
Song Yongrui was wondering what kind of interesting thing that his pal would show to him. But before his friend's words fell, the video rolled in and Song Yu Han's handsome face appeared on the phone screen.
Frowning, Song Yongrui wondered if his friend was doing it on purpose. Everyone knew that it was taboo to talk about the bastard son that his grandfather brought home in front of him.
However, even if it was a topic they can't talk about in front of Song Yongrui, it wasn't like no one has discussed the difference between Song Yu Han and Song Yongrui.
Inside the room, the chaotic sounds of people laughing and talking fell into an instant silence.
Gu Changhai, however, was fearless and smirked at Song Yongrui as he shamelessly continued: "This brother of yours is really amazing. He even stood beside Ran Xueyi and walked on the red carpet with her. I wonder if he had taken her to his bed and how she would taste. It's too bad that she's already married."
Gasp!
Song Yongrui's face was twisted as he dangerously looked at Gu Changhai. Unfortunately, the latter was too fearless or perhaps, he never really cared about how Song Yongrui felt when he brought up this topic.
Actually, everyone in their circle knew that Gu Changhai and Song Yongrui did not get along with each other after an incident ruined their friendship. Since then these two would always end up in a fight.
Their relationship got a little bit better after they graduated college. However, it was only because their paths did not cross with each other.
But enemies and friends will always meet again. The world is too small and their circle was even smaller.
Song Yongrui, miraculously, did not flip the table as he glared at Gu Changhai and said: "I clearly didn't invite you to my party. Why don't you leave?"
Gu Changhai's eyes lit up as he shrugged: "I was in the club before you guys came. I saw you having a party in this room and the door was not locked, so I ended up inviting myself in."
He drank a mouthful of his drink before adding: "I'm having the best time of my life seeing your ugly face right now."
"Gu Changhai!"
"Alright, alright. Don't scream. I'm sitting right next to you, why are you screaming?" Gu Changhai leaned backward and frowned at his loud voice.
Song Yongrui grabbed him by his collar and raised his fist. But the punch did not come down as his other arm was held back by his friends.
"Song Yongrui, calm down!"
"Stop it, bro."
"Don't let him get to you. Gu Changhai, you too. You should just leave."
"You shouldn't forget what your mother told you, Song Yongrui."
Song Yongrui's friends tried to stop him from ending up getting into another fight. They still remembered that Song Yongrui's mother appeared before them once to warn them.
If Song Yongrui were to get into another fight, they should stop him or else, they will be disciplined by their parents.
Besides, Gu Changhai was not a simple person either.
Gu Changhai's background was not really known. However, he appeared at almost every gathering and parties attended by high socialites.
Moreover, he was too good at fights. They still remembered when Gu Changhai took down twenty people alone during high school. Now, he should be stronger and fiercer than in the past.
So, a fight should really be avoided.
They weren't only worried about Song Yongrui, they were also concerned that if Gu Changhai wanted, he would beat them all up until they were a step away from death.
Gu Changhai smiled without saying anything the whole time. The way his eyes looked so bright as if something amusing was in front of him made everyone want to stay away from him even more.
Song Yongrui was still unconvinced and didn't want to let Gu Changhai go.
But they are right.
Looking at that irritating grin on Gu Changhai's face, Song Yongrui narrowed his eyes and warned him: "Gu Changhai, don't think I will let this go without making you pay. Messing with me should be the last thing you should do!"
Gu Changhai scoffed: "Dude, you don't need to fake it. Just say you're afraid of your mother."
Song Yongrui: "You!"
Gu Changhai: "What? Punch me if you're mad. My hands are itching tonight anyway so I'm willing to entertain you in a fistfight."
Song Yongrui gritted his teeth and really wanted to punch him. However, he could not do it.
Seeing this, Gu Changhai peeled the hand on his collar and pushed Song Yongrui away before he stood up. He looked down on him and smiled even more.
Gu Changhai: "Heh, coward."
After saying this, he went out of the room. He didn't look like he was thrown out but rather, he looked as if he was only strolling out of his garden where several Geraniums swayed.
(A/N: Geranium is a flower that represents foolishness or a stupid person)
In the hallway, Gu Changhai swaggered to another room and sat down inside.
Three men who possessed outstanding features and elegant temperament turned their heads to look at him.
One of the men said: "You returned quicker than I thought. I thought you'd stay there until the police were called."
Gu Changhai raised his brows and replied: "Well, sorry to disappoint you, Lu Che. But you put a lot of expectations on that coward."
Lu Che's face twisted in disgust: "I have no expectations for him. I just expected that you would still have the talent to piss him off. It seems that you no longer have this skill."
Gu Changai glared at him in the end.
Not afraid of his glare, Lu Che looked at the other two and said, "Qin Mo, look at your cousin. He's scaring me."
Qin Mo gazed at Lu Che and lifted the corner of his lips as he said: "It's good that you know how to be afraid. You should learn a bit more."
Lu Che: "...Traitor!"
He turned to the last guy and blinked: Brother Xu..."
"But why did you send Gu Changhai to Song Yongrui?" Xu Chengyan could not be bothered to spoil the childish Lu Che and got to the point.
Lu Che threw away his coquettish tone and seriously said: "He keeps getting my uncle in trouble in the past. Unfortunately, I don't have the strength to win against Song Yongrui, so I always have Gu Changhai go and fight him."
Gu Changhai was not angered that Lu Che was treating as if he was a pokemon or a dog that he could send out to battle with another rabid dog.
Instead, he was even more hopeful to fight Song Yongrui when he heard Lu Che mention Song Yu Han.
The four of them were men who came from different backgrounds. Lu Che came from the Lu family, the maternal family of Song Yu Han. Xu Chengyan was from the Xu family, who leads the fashion industry in Asia. Qin Mo, who was part of the Qin family, but did not want to be involved with their business and became a doctor. And lastly, Gu Changhai, a man who did not come from a wealthy family, but has connections to the Underworld.
Amongst them, Gu Changhai has the most mysterious and deep background.
Although the four's unique relationship might come as a surprise, they have one thing that was similar to each other.
And it was their strong admiration towards Song Yu Han.
It was needless to say that Lu Che was the head of this unofficial Song Yu Han fan club despite knowing Song Yu Han and being friends with him.
Xu Chengyan pondered upon hearing Lu Che's words and said, "Is that so..."
Lu Che nodded and foolishly continued to open his lips: "My uncle was so pitiful when he was younger. But he grew up so wonderfully now. So I naturally want to beat up those who bullied him and my grand aunt."
Qin Mo, Xu Chenyan, and Gu Changhai did not expect that Lu Che would say so much tonight. It was the first time he revealed a lot about Song Yu Han's past.
Nevertheless, they were glad that they could help Lu Che and Song Yu Han.
