Chapter 443 - Loyal Brothers' Arrival
Chapter 443 Loyal Brothers’ Arrival
After Xiao Bing came back, the plan was set to be implemented.
Xiao Bing called Bi Tingting first and asked her to find a professional actor who was of the right age. It was not hard to find one. The entertainment industry was a complicated place, where people would find it difficult to become famous. Some actors could only make a living by doing walk on parts.
Bi Tingting was the most popular celebrity at the moment, which meant that it was easy for her to find an actor who met with Xiao Bing’s requirement. Numerous starlets would always jump at the chance to work with famous directors or superstars. Besides, Xiao Bing would not let them go off empty-handed. He would pay them a lot of money.
Bing Tingting’s interest was ignited after Xiao Bing told her the whole story and his plan. She had not expected that she would be able to punish adulterers by using her acting contacts… If she did not have work to do, she would have joined him, to see what the outcome would be.
Xiao Bing had decided to do it according to this plan. He asked Bi Tingting to find the perfect actor for him. This one must be relatively unknown, so that others would believe that he was from a rich family.
After this was done, Xiao Bing had to plan for the issues with Dragon Gate. He did not want the people in Xiao Mansion to be involved in this. Though he controlled the underground world of the three northern provinces, the advantage of numbers would not help much if their enemy was a powerful master. Few of them would survive in combat with a powerful master. He would be a sinner then if he did that.
This was an era of peace. Even if two countries were at war, few people would die. The deaths of hundreds of people were enough to shock the whole world.
Of course, in the Dark World, people die all the time. But the reason why it was called that was because the people in it were living in the shadows. Normal people were not even aware of their existence. When they died, few people would know about it.
But it was not the same with the people around him.
Besides, it was impossible for Xiao Bing to watch his men being killed.
Even if they died for a cause, Xiao Bing would not let so many people get killed due to his plan.
Xiao Bing decided not to mobilize his men from the underground world. But he summoned Poisonous Fox to get his opinion.
Ever since the Long Family was eradicated from this world, Xiao Bing asked Poisonous Fox and Crow to stay there to make sure the two provinces were running well. After he had punished and rewarded some people recently, the situation had stabilized. Xiao Bing could then ask Poisonous Fox to come over to Jiang City.
Poisonous Fox had learned his cunning ways from his master Zhuge. He was even better than his master. Xiao Bing deemed this man the perfect person to offer him advice.
Xiao Bing called Poisonous Fox. After he spoke to Poisonous Fox, he drove to the airport with Dumbass.
He parked the car outside the airport and went to the waiting area with Dumbass. Xiao Bing soon spotted the ten men, since they stood out among the crowd.
Dumbass kept looking around, his eyes wide open. “Brother Bing, you said that these friends of yours are foreigners? Will I understand their language? Do they look different? Do they have red hair and green eyes?”
Xiao Bing patted Dumbass’s head and laughed, “You really should start studying with Maggie. Do you think people from R Country will have red hair and green eyes? The people from Country R look the same as us. They also have yellow skin. It’s just that our language is different.
“I see.” Dumbass rubbed his head and smiled sheepishly, “I don’t want to study with Maggie. She’s such a prankster.”
Xiao Bing guffawed. Maggie was a whimsical girl who often played pranks on Dumbass. Xiao Bing surmised that Dumbass was a little scared of her.
Xiao Bing waited for a little longer and finally, he saw all the familiar faces. The ten men strode toward him, dressed in their new clothes. They looked aloof and gave out cold vibes. Though they were all dressed in their new shirts and pants, they still looked like starving beasts.
Almost everyone could not keep their eyes off them, as they strode through the airport.
Dumbass stared at them in excitement, “Boss, are they the men you were talking about?”
Xiao Bing laughed, “You are much smarter this time.”
These ten men walked over to Xiao Bing and bowed deeply. Then they said in unison, “Master.”
But others did not know what they were saying because they were using Language R. Even Dumbass was confused. But they all knew that these guys respected Xiao Bing very much.
Xiao Bing said, “Don’t do this publicly next time.”
The leader promised that they would not do that again.
Xiao Bing nodded and said, “No. 1, you must keep all your identifications well. Since you chose to follow me, I will ensure that you guys will lead a normal life. You are not men of Country R anymore. Everything that happened there, has nothing to do with you anymore. From now on, you have only one identity: which is my brother.”
No. 1 said reverently, “You’re our master.”
When those men were saved by Xiao Bing, they insisted that they should be named according to numbers from one to ten, which was approved by Xiao Bing. But Xiao Bing still said, “From now on, the name on your ID will be your new name if you like. You will all be able to set up your families. Though you swore your fealty to me, you should have your own life. If one day you find a woman you love and want to have a child, you can leave at any time. I won’t stop you and I will help you on that matter.”
No.1 answered with a stern face, “Master, we will always stay by your side.”
Xiao Bing knew what happened to them still hurt, which made them afraid of integrating with society, so Xiao Bing did not insist. But he was determined that if any one of them fell in love with a woman, he would give them a big amount of money, and ask them to live their own lives.
“Let’s go.” Xiao Bing walked off with the ten men trailing behind.
Dumbass stared at these men curiously as he walked. “I’m Dumbass.”
“Can you understand what I’m saying?”
“You’re all from Country R? How is your country? What’s the difference between it and the Cathaysian State? Can you tell me about it?”
Xiao Bing said, “Dumbass, they can understand some of our language. But they can’t speak it.”
Xiao Bing was right. The language of the Cathaysian State could be understood by many people in Country R, but that did not mean that they could speak it. Xiao Bing intended to find a tutor to teach them the language. Actually Zhan Hongyan already had it planned for Xiao Bing.
Dumbass seemed upset. He was a straightforward man who always spoke his mind. But he felt fretful since these men could not communicate with him.
After they left the airport, Dumbass and three of the men got onto Xiao Bing’s car, while the other seven men were separated into two taxis. But they did not drive downtown. Instead, they headed toward the villa district, which was a place not far from the Xiao Mansion. Then the cars stopped in front of a villa.
The guards opened the gate after they saw Xiao Bing’s carplate. Then all three cars drove in. The taxi drivers left after Xiao Bing paid them.
Xiao Bing looked at the ten men with a smile, “From now on, this will be your home.”
Aloof as they may be, they were surprised because they had not expected that Xiao Bing would arrange such a fancy villa for them. They were more than grateful to Xiao Bing now.
Xiao Bing said, “Normally there are only two servants here. One is an old man who guards the door and the other is a woman who will cook for you. You can practice martial arts or learn something here. You can also take a stroll outside. But don’t go too far. I hope you are satisfied with this place?”
No. 1 said reverently, “Master, the favors you have done for us are beyond counting. We will never complain about your arrangements.”
Xiao Bing laughed, “And I suppose the rooms in this mansion are enough for you. There are 5 rooms upstairs and 3 downstairs. One of them is for the auntie. The old man lives in the cottage beside the gate and he will be the night watchman. The rest of the seven rooms can be used in any way you like.”
Then Zhan Hongyan walked out of the living room. Behind her was an old man with white whiskers. This bespectacled old man had a gentle and cultivated look. But he was surprised when he saw the ten men behind Xiao Bing. He looked at Zhan Hongyan and asked, “Which one of them will be my student?”
Grinning, Xiao Bing said, “You must be Mr. Sun, the renowned linguistic professor in Jiang Cheng University. I’m Xiao Bing and I’ve heard a lot about you. All these men behind me will be your students.”
Sun Boxue shook hands with Xiao Bing and looked at the ten men in surprise. “They… All of them?”
