The Dominance of Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chapter 34 Mother and Son

Fresh Food Building, fourth floor.

"Drink it!" "You haven't drunk enough!"

At six round tables, strong men were toasting each other.

They were drunk and their faces were red, and they were yelling at each other.

At one of the round tables, Di Yanfeng smiled and took the wine that a brother handed to Qin Zhiming.

Pick it up and drink it in one gulp.

He turned the wine bowl upside down, indicating that he had drunk it all.

Qin Zhiming doesn't like drinking. Even if his body can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, he still doesn't like drinking.

He also had a feud with the former branch leader Zhang Lin because of this incident.

Zhang Lin proposed a toast to him, but Qin Zhiming tried to refuse, even suggesting that if he was not allowed to drink, he could open up another street for the branch.

Even so, Zhang Lin still felt that Qin Zhiming was taking credit for himself and was embarrassing him, but at that time, no one cared about it except him.

From then on, he and Qin Zhiming had completely become enemies.

Previous memories flashed through his mind, and while Chen Youhuang and Di Yanfeng took turns blocking the wine for him, Qin Zhiming began to scan the entire room.

Zhang Yuhuai and Xu Huan walked back and forth between the round tables, constantly toasting with their brothers.

The two of them came from other branches.

Although Qin Zhiming has already regarded the two of them as his confidants, Di Yanfeng and Chen Youhuang have no objections, but it does not mean that others will approve of them.

The two knew this, so they took advantage of the dinner to get up and take turns drinking, hoping to get along well with their brothers.

Suddenly, Qin Zhiming saw a burly man scratching his ears and talking to someone at the door.

He looked very conflicted, with an awkward look as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Since the person was blocked by the door, Qin Zhiming couldn't see who it was.

He stood up, patted Di Yanfeng on the shoulder, smiled and joked with the brothers at the nearby table, then walked to the door.

"What's wrong? Yong."

Ayong turned his head and saw that it was Qin Zhiming, and the expression on his face became more complicated.

"I've seen you before. You are A-Ming! You are not dead!"

An old woman with a hunched back and a sad face suddenly grabbed Qin Zhiming's right arm.

"You're talking like that! This is..."

Qin Zhiming hurriedly reached out to stop A Yong who was about to get angry.

"You are... aunt, right?"

Seeing that Qin Zhiming recognized her, the old woman nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm Jiang Ming's mother. We've met before."

"Okay, Ayong, go have a drink, I'll take care of this."

"Brother Hu, this..." "Go ahead, I don't drink, get everyone a few more glasses for me."

Having said this, Ayong had no choice but to turn around and leave.

"Ah Ming, sorry to interrupt your meal, I just want to ask, why did my son die?
They all say that it was the new branch leader who killed my son, but why?

He is so nice and well behaved, never causes trouble and works hard.

I heard that the branch leader was inviting people to dinner today, so I have been waiting here.

But with so many people, who is the leader of the branch?

I asked Ayong to go in and ask for me, but he didn't say anything and didn't tell me why.

My son, my son."

As the old woman spoke, she burst into tears.

Jiang Ming, nicknamed Greyhound, means a gray little dog.

He always hides until the very end during every fight, and only rushes forward when the outcome is decided, pretending to be out of breath.

During a fight, Qin Zhiming discovered that he had a talent for escaping.

He would always have a premonition before an ambush, and his legs would tremble to remind everyone that something was wrong. Many people didn't take his words seriously, thinking that he was just a coward.

Unexpectedly, he was right several times.

So, Qin Zhiming recruited him into his team and put him in charge of investigating the situation in order to reduce the casualties among his brothers.

The first time he saw the old woman was when Greyhound sprained his ankle while running too fast during a fight.

Since no one was willing to take him home, Qin Zhiming supported him and went back home. When he saw the old woman, she said a few good words to him.

"My son said not long ago that he finally had a chance to make a name for himself, and he asked me to find him a wife.

But why...why did the gang want to kill him!!!"

The old woman became more and more agitated in order to avoid attracting the attention of the other brothers.

Qin Zhiming helped her to the third floor, found a table to sit down at, and asked the waiter to bring a pot of good tea.

Then, he learned the whole story from the old woman's stammering words.

"My son always said that he and you, A-Ming, were regarded as heroes in the gang, and the gang members had a good relationship with him.

Some time ago, he said you were out of town for something, and a few days later, he came back drunk, shouting that you were dead and that you were his best brother in the gang.

He also said that if you died, how would he stay in the gang? After that day, whenever my son told me about the gang, he would say that he had a chance to make a name for himself.

Then... Then, he was carried back! !

His father died early, and I only have this one son, so I want to know why he died!!!"

After hearing this, Qin Zhiming almost knew why Jiang Ming had done what he had done before.

No child wants to complain in front of his parents, and Jiang Ming is no exception.

He lied that he was extremely brave and that everyone in the gang admired him, but he just didn't want his mother to worry about him.

In fact, except Qin Zhiming, almost no one in the gang was willing to pay attention to him.

It's not wrong to say that he is a coward and afraid of death, but he is a gang member.

Even though his reconnaissance reduced the casualties of his brothers, many people still looked down on him.

Because gangs are all about fearlessness of life and death.

When Jiang Ming learned the false news of Qin Zhiming's death from Zhang Nan, he had only two choices.

Continue to be despised by others and unable to integrate into the group, or join Zhang Nan and use lies to exchange for the opportunity to succeed.

Qin Zhiming speculated that Jiang Ming probably thought that since no one liked him anyway, he might as well make enemies with everyone and make a name for himself.

Even if Zhang Nan turned against him afterwards, he didn't want to throw away his only chance in life.

After a moment's silence, Qin Zhiming told the old woman.

"The new branch leader needs to establish his authority, and no one is allowed to question the contributions he and his brothers have made.

Jiang Ming should not say things that he shouldn't say at inappropriate times. Everyone must bear the consequences of their own choices.

While he follows his own inner choices, others are also making their own choices.”

Coincidentally, at this moment, Chen Youhuang, who was checking the situation, walked down the stairs and saw this scene.

At Qin Zhiming's signal, he walked to the table.

"Ah Chen, you drink with the brothers first. I'll come back after I send my aunt off."

"Okay, Tiger, I got it."

"Aunt, you can go back after the rain stops."

After Qin Zhiming finished speaking, he waved to the waiter to serve the food. After all, he and Jiang Ming knew each other well, and he couldn't let his aunt go back hungry.

Hua family, living room.

Hua Bai sat in the middle, stroking his forehead and sighing.

"What should we do from now on?"

"Abo, is your father really gone?"
