Chapter 71 Ding Ding Dang Dang: He's so stupid, he can't even recognize you!
Inside the restaurant, Dingdingdangdang heard the shouts of the Chang Le Gang disciples outside, and her little face showed some panic.
"What do I do? What do I do? It seems like they know you're impersonating them?"
Shi Zhongyu glanced at the clattering noise and said, "Eat calmly!"
He continued eating without looking up, making clattering noises as he looked around, seemingly trying to find a way to sneak out.
However, the Chang Le gang members completely surrounded the restaurant.
She really couldn't think of any way to escape.
"Oh no, oh no! All I did was lock you up for a few meals, and now it's your last meal before you're executed!"
Muttering to himself, he watched as Shi Zhongyu ate with relish, and finally bit down hard.
"Whatever, whatever! If I'm going to die, I'll die eating myself to death!"
He smacked his lips and ate his rice and other dishes with gusto.
When the diners in the restaurant saw that they were surrounded by the Chang Le Gang, they immediately panicked.
They looked around, wondering which person was so audacious as to impersonate the leader of the Chang Le Gang.
However, they had never met the leader of the Chang Le Gang and had no idea who was impersonating him.
Outside the restaurant, after Li Kui's subordinate finished shouting, he found that no one came out, so he had no choice but to look at his leader, Li Kui.
Li Kui snorted coldly and shouted at Gao Sheng inside the restaurant, "What? Since you claim to be the leader of my Chang Le Gang, are you unwilling to come out and meet me, the branch leader?"
However, no one in the restaurant responded.
Just as he was getting impatient and was about to wave his hand to order his men to rush in,
A faint voice rang out from inside the restaurant.
"Li Kui, have you ever seen a branch leader call out and their own leader... come running out to meet them on their own initiative?"
These words were spoken by Dingdingdangdang, and the content was taught by Shi Zhongyu.
Upon hearing the woman's voice outside the restaurant, Li Kui's eyes narrowed, then he burst into laughter.
"Very well, since my leader has said so, then I, Li, will go in and see for myself!"
Li Kui's men quickly stopped them.
"Master, there might be a trap!"
"On my turf, why would I be afraid of him being a liar? Unless he really is the leader of our Chang Le Gang!"
After Li Kui finished speaking, he dismounted and walked to the entrance of the restaurant.
He glanced around the doorway and noticed that everyone was staring at him timidly, except for a young couple at one table who were still eating as if no one else was around.
Li Kui squinted. He could see that the young woman was quite pretty, but the person sitting opposite her had his back to him.
This made it impossible for him to see her face clearly.
He turned his gaze to the man eating with his back to him and sneered, "You have quite the nerve, daring to impersonate my Chang Le Gang..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the young man turn around and stare at him with a half-smile.
When Li Kui saw the young man's appearance, his eyes widened suddenly.
"Help...the gang leader?"
Shi Zhongyu glanced at Li Kui, then his gaze swept lightly over the people behind Li Kui.
"Li Kui, you've done your best in guarding the Yuling branch and checking passersby. But you can't even recognize your own leader?"
Li Kui trembled, carefully examining the man's features, and discovered that he looked exactly like the gang leader at the main headquarters.
He had been to the headquarters and met the gang leader.
This person isn't an imposter; he's clearly the gang leader.
Li Kui knelt down abruptly, his voice trembling as he said, "Li Kui, the leader of the Yuling branch, pays respects to Chief Shi!"
Shi Zhongyu stared coldly at Li Kui, his tone authoritative even without anger: "I was passing through this place incognito, intending to leave quietly, but I didn't expect to be surrounded by you and your men!"
"Chief Li, are you making such a fuss to interrogate me, the gang leader?"
Li Kui was startled and dared not suspect anything. He quickly apologized, "This subordinate was blind and ignorant, unaware of the Chief's arrival. I have been extremely offensive, I deserve to die!"
Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Chang Le Gang behind him immediately withdrew their weapons, lowered their heads, and knelt down in unison, not daring to raise their heads.
Shi Zhongyu remained unmoved, calmly raising his hand: "Stand up and speak. Who leaked my whereabouts?"
Li Kui didn't dare to get up and quickly replied, "It's a small mountain stronghold that's affiliated with a branch. They said someone was impersonating you, so I brought men... I never expected it to be such a huge misunderstanding!"
Shi Zhongyu nodded slightly.
"Yes, I don't want those people to see tomorrow's sun!"
He stared at Li Kui and said calmly, "You know what to do, right?"
Li Kui lowered his head.
"Your subordinate understands!"
"It will definitely satisfy the gang leader!"
Shi Zhongyu nodded slightly.
"Alright, take your men and get to work! And pretend you didn't see me today!"
"Yes, sir!"
Li Kui respectfully stood up.
However, after glancing around the restaurant, he asked in a low voice, "Should we ask anyone in the restaurant who saw you...?"
He made a throat-slitting gesture.
The diners in the restaurant were shocked and stared at Shi Zhongyu with pale faces.
Their eyes were pleading.
Shi Zhongyu glanced at Li Kui.
"What? Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"This subordinate wouldn't dare! This subordinate deserves to die!"
Li Kui immediately lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.
Shi Zhongyu waved his hand impatiently.
"Alright, get to work!"
"Yes, sir!"
Li Kui then led his men away from the restaurant.
He went outside, his eyes flashing with hatred.
"Those bastards almost killed me, I'm going to twist their heads off!"
The atmosphere in the restaurant improved somewhat after Li Kui left.
The other diners dared not linger any longer. They quickly bowed to Shi Zhongyu in a fawning manner and then hurriedly left.
Before long, only Shi Zhongyu and Dingdingdangdang remained in the restaurant.
Shi Zhongyu glanced at the restaurant owner and waiter who were already hiding under the table, and then took out a gold leaf and threw it to them.
"I'll cover all the meals for the diners!"
After saying this, Shi Zhongyu got up and left the restaurant with Dingdingdangdang.
All the way, it kept jingling and chattering.
"You're amazing! You weren't afraid at all with so many people surrounding you. That Li Kui looks burly, but he's got no brains at all. He even recognized you! It's hilarious! He mistook his own gang leader for someone else..."
Shi Zhongyu glanced at Dingdingdangdang but didn't reveal who had mistaken him for someone else.
As the two were traveling, they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them.
Dingdingdangdang suddenly turned around and found that Li Kui and the others had caught up with them.
"Oh no, they're catching up! Did they find out who you are?"
Shi Zhongyu did not reply, but instead reined in his horse and waited quietly for Li Kui and the others to arrive.
"Giddy up! Giddy up! Giddy up!"
Li Kui and his men rode their horses very fast and soon arrived in front of Shi Zhongyu and the others.
He pressed down on the hidden weapon at his waist, ready to strike at any moment.
Unexpectedly, Li Kui and the others who had come over all dismounted.
"Master, I have dealt with those people as you instructed!"
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him, and his men brought over a bunch of heads.
Upon seeing this, Dingdingdangdang immediately turned away, not wanting to look anymore.
Shi Zhongyu glanced at it with an expression that remained unchanged.
"As expected of one of the leaders Mr. Bei often praises, Chief Li's efficiency is truly remarkable!"
"You can decide what to do with these heads!"
His words delighted Li Kui, who immediately pledged his loyalty.
"I will obey the leader's orders without hesitation, even at the cost of my life!"
Just as he finished speaking, an ethereal voice resounded all around.
"So you'd rather die a thousand deaths! You bastard, I see you're having a pretty good time as the leader of the Chang Le Gang!"
"But your good days are coming to an end today!"
