Chapter 2167 - 2368: All of You Can Leave, But He Must Stay!!!

Gu Peng was acting all dominant, counting down, but as he was speaking, a sudden slap landed hard on his face, leaving him completely stunned and unaware of what had just happened. However, when he felt a burning pain on his face and covered it with his hand, he immediately realized that someone had just slapped him.Instantly, an angry expression appeared on his face. Damn it, this was the first time in years that someone dared to slap him. He still remembered that the last time someone slapped him was his dad, and in the end, his dad had to apologize to him before he forgave him.

Yet today, after so many years, someone actually dared to slap him, and did so harshly, slapping him painfully, making his face burn, and it was done in front of so many people, in front of the many henchmen he had called over, and in front of Hao Jian.

This was simply an extraordinary humiliation, akin to being slapped in the face in broad daylight on the school playground during recess exercises. It was a direct slap in the face, he felt his image was instantly destroyed, absolutely furious.

The dozens of people he called over were also infuriated when they witnessed this scene. Their boss was actually slapped like that; of course, they were furious too, immediately picking up their weapons to retaliate. However, Baldy immediately shot them a fierce look, scaring them so much that they didn't dare to move, and seeing that they were surrounded by over a hundred people, they dared not move at all.

Wumao originally didn't plan to take action, waiting for Hao Jian to do it personally, but he didn't expect this kid to be so arrogant, playing a countdown trick with him, so he couldn't hold it anymore. When he counted down to one, he swung a slap, leaving him completely stunned.

But looking at his reaction, he was very satisfied. Clearly, this slap had an effect.

"Want more?" Wumao raised his hand and asked.

Gu Peng's face was very unpleasant at this moment. He originally came here with a group to humiliate Hao Jian, but now Hao Jian wasn't humiliated, and a sudden group of people came out to humiliate him instead. He was very angry right now, but having been caught, he couldn't express his anger.

However, at that moment, Baldy said to Wumao, "Alright, stop it. Let Brother Hao handle this."

Wumao smiled, waved his hand, then let go of Gu Peng and stepped back a few steps, waiting for Hao Jian to deal with it.

However, at this moment, when Gu Peng heard Baldy say to wait for Brother Hao to deal with it, he was dumbfounded. What Brother Hao? Who is Brother Hao? Wait for Hao Jian to deal with it? Why wait for him to deal with it? But then he thought again, isn't Hao Jian's surname Hao? Could it be that Brother Hao refers to him?!

No! That's absolutely impossible. How could it be him? Doesn't he know who he is? If it refers to him, he might as well write his name backward. And Baldy was saying this to Wumao, Lin Dongyang can't be who he meant by Hao Jian, so it must be Afei he's referring to as Brother Hao.

His gaze turned to Afei, looking puzzled. He didn't know this Brother Hao at all, and even more so, they had no grudges. If there were no grudges, why would he target him? He couldn't figure it out.

But, just as he was thinking about this, Wumao walked over to Hao Jian. At first, Wumao was all arrogant towards him, but now he walked to Hao Jian with immense respect and submissively said, "Brother Hao, I think this kid named Gu Peng is quite arrogant, do you want me to teach him a lesson first?"

Hao Jian didn't speak for a moment, but when Gu Peng heard this sentence, he was shocked, Brother Hao? What's going on? Could it be that Baldy's Brother Hao really is Hao Jian? That's simply impossible, but seeing Wumao respectfully calling Hao Jian Brother Hao, tells him it's true.

He looked at it all, feeling shocked, questioning this matter incessantly in his head, feeling it was impossible. Meanwhile, the seventy or eighty people behind him also were shocked when they heard this, what, Hao Jian is the Brother Hao Baldy referred to! This can't be real!

Even Fatty Hu Lai and Zheng Jun all had expressions of disbelief; they couldn't have imagined that Hao Jian could pull off such a big move. Gu Peng found it unbelievable, but for them, when they heard Wumao call Hao Jian Brother Hao, they understood everything.

They were just a bit surprised, never knew Hao Jian had such a hidden card, making them utterly astonished. Had they known Boss Hao had such a card, they wouldn't have been so afraid.

However, Liang Xiaohan just had a calm look on her face. She had long known that Hao Jian must have his clever plans, just not knowing the specifics. Now seeing Hao Jian pull off such a big move, she was a bit surprised, not knowing when Hao Jian managed to gather such a large group, but thinking back to the recent times when Hao Jian often came home late, she seemed to have figured something out.

Only Gu Peng still had a face full of astonishment.

Hao Jian looked at him, knowing what he was thinking, just not believing any of this. However, he had no intention of proving anything to him. What he wanted was simply to undermine his power, to kill one to warn a hundred, letting others know his prowess so no one would dare to cause him any trouble again.

Moreover, it was also to help Liang Xiaohan solve some unnecessary troubles.

He suddenly looked up at Gu Peng, didn't say anything, but silently took a couple of steps, then said to the dozens of people surrounded by Baldy's men behind Gu Peng, "I'll give you an opportunity, I won't come after you if you leave now, and nothing will happen."

He said this with a smile on his face, but those who heard felt a shock in their hearts. In a short time, Gu Peng, who originally had the absolute upper hand, suddenly lost that advantage, and now it seemed they only had the chance to flee.

Looking at Baldy's group, they swallowed. They had now seen the situation for what it was. Baldy's group was entirely Hao Jian's, there was no doubt about it anymore.

Although their numbers weren't small, only about twenty or thirty fewer than Baldy's group, they understood one truth very clearly. In the end, they were just students, but the others, they were people from the streets, who had been through enough bloody battles, who didn't know how many fights they had been in.

Compared to this group, there was simply no comparison. In fact, even if they had twice as many people, it still couldn't compare.

It's like when you raise a stick to hit, you'll hesitate for a moment, after all, not doing it often. At the moment of action, hesitance is inevitable. But the people on the other side are living off this daily; they wouldn't hesitate, they'd lift the stick and bring it down instantly. By the time you react, you're already on the ground.

So, they didn't hesitate at all, feeling that if they fought this group, losing was a foregone conclusion.

They looked at Gu Peng, waiting for his command, since Gu Peng was their boss, they needed his command. Otherwise, if they just left, that would be too disloyal.

Little did they know, at this moment Gu Peng wasn't even looking at them. He still wore a face full of disbelief, feeling this couldn't be real. If it were real, he'd be thoroughly disgraced today.

"Brother Peng!" One of his subordinates suddenly spoke up, probably wanting to ask what to do.

Hao Jian suddenly smiled, pointed at Gu Peng, and said, "I said I'd give you all a chance, but I didn't say I'd give him a chance; you can leave, but he must stay."

He looked at everyone after saying that, then added, "I'll give you thirty seconds to prepare. After thirty seconds, I'll start having people move. If you're still here by that time, don't blame me for being ruthless, my men are even more ruthless."

"It's starting now!" Hao Jian said.

When there wasn't a countdown, they were still consulting Gu Peng's opinion, but after Hao Jian's words, they were even more hesitant.

As soon as Hao Jian finished speaking, the hundred or so people surrounding them behind Baldy raised their weapons, ready to act. They had no doubt that when Hao Jian gave the order to attack, the group behind them would immediately act and catch them off guard.

They were scared, completely frightened. They might not fear anyone else, but the group standing behind them were unmistakably people from the streets, skilled in ruthless fighting.

Some of them still glanced at Gu Peng, while at this moment, Gu Peng remained silent.

He felt like he'd been slapped in the face, a direct slap. He didn't know what to say, and there wasn't any room for him to speak.

Hao Jian was clear, everyone else could leave, but Gu Peng had to stay, the meaning was obvious.

Today is the day to confront him head-on, to settle it once for all!
