Chapter 484 he still has strength
Outside in the darkness that surround Fate, trees barricade the place like a fortress on ground of the mountain's peak. The sound of the ocean sang a melody in the night.
Steward Yang slowly checks the surrounding area with a cane in hand to help support his slightly slouch body. His eyes could barely open due to his old age, but it doesn't bother him.
"Hey old man, give us some alcohol."
From behind, a man calls out to the elderly man. He is one of Red Moon's men that could not enter the building since each leader was only allowed to bring one or two people inside.
Thus, everyone else that came had to sit outside and wait.
Steward Yang pause in his steps and turn to look at the person who had spoken. However, there were about twenty figures standing near the parked cars.
His wrinkle eyes squints more to get a clearer view of the person. However, due to the dark sky, he could not make out the person.
Though he could not see who had spoken, he still replies an answer.
"Fate prohibits alcohol on the promises."
Hearing the elderly man's words, the man and three other men howl a laugh.
"Prohibits alcohol? That can't be true. Every gang allows alcohol, how can Fate have such a lousy rule."
Their laugh was sinister and full of taunt, but Steward Yang did not care. He turns away and continue on to monitor the rest of the place.
"Old man! You are nothing but a steward, how dare you ignore us! We are the guests of Fate!"
The same man yells out after the elderly man with a tone full of confidence like he held more authority. He didn't care if Steward Yang was a member of Fate, they were guests here so they should be treated with entertainment.
Steward Yang sighs inside and without looking at the group of men, his old voice sounds.
"Since you are the guests of Fate, remember where you are."
The man's face turned red as he lost his face to the old man. However, thinking Steward Yang is old and weak, he strides in big steps to the elderly man. He cannot be humiliated like this.
"Bro, are looking for death?"
Another person standing at the side quickly stops the man, but he was a step too late. The man was already making his way towards Steward Yang.
He made sure his steps were quiet and reach an arm to grab the elderly man's cane. He wanted to embarrass Steward Yang for humiliating him.
However, that was his biggest mistake.
Steward Yang may not have good eyesight, but his ears are still working properly. Each step the man made, he heard every bit of it.
As the man stretch his arm for the cane, Steward Yang lifts his hand and swiftly motions the tip of the cane back. It stabs the man in the stomach stopping him from further advancing.
Turning around he held a smile that reach his eyes, but one can see that his smile was very sinister.
"I warn you boy. You are no longer in your territory."
He push the man back with his cane and continues on with his way. Without looking at the group, his words fell again.
"Fields have eyes and woods have ears. Be careful of what you say and do."
Hearing his words, everyone quickly froze in place. Their eyes scans the surrounding trees in alert but all were not able to see anything due to the darkness.
Watching the steward turn a corner, the man scoffs and turns back to join his brothers. There is no one listening in on them. Steward Yang much be trying to scare them only.
"Bro, why'd you do something so stupid?"
A comrade nervously spoke as the man joins their group of four again. Although he did not see anyone, he can't help but get a eerie feeling from the trees.
The man scoffs a laugh and takes out a cigarette from his pocket. Lighting it up, his voice sounds in arrogance.
"We are members of Red Moon. He is only bluffing to scare us."
As the man spoke this, a young man stood in the distance by a car. In his hand was a cigarette as he observe the group. He is not from Red Moon, but a member of Black Jade.
His head lightly shook, and he continues to smoke his cigarette. He will have to report this matter to his boss once the meeting is over.
In the darkness around Fate, the members of Wolf Team and Fate hid amongst the trees. Some stayed high in position on the branches while others held their place on the ground.
Those near the group of men had heard their entire conversation.
"What a bunch of idiots."
Ju Suo's childlike voice chimes in a whisper as she scoffs at the man disrespecting Steward Yang.
"Why didn't you let us help him?"
Next to the petite woman, Jiangyu's bulky figure slightly hid behind a tree. They were assigned to keep watch from outside in case someone decides to do something stupid. After all, Steelhead and Gao Jie were involved with Chu Li Xiang.
When they saw and heard the men from Red Moon bully the old man, all of them wanted to leave their position and give those people a good lesson.
However, Ju Suo signaled them to stop. She told them that everything was fine.
Thinking this, Jiangyu frowns and he glance at the petite woman who is now his love interest and girlfriend.
"How can you sit back and watch an elderly man get bully?"
Ju Suo stares up at the man and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Steward Yang was being bullied? What bullied? By whom?
The elderly man may be a steward, but he has been a member of Fate since the very beginning.
He is old in age, but one should never take him lightly.
She shook her head with a sigh and explains a little detail to Jiangyu and the other members of Wolf Team who were nearby.
"Steward Yang is old, but he still has his strength."
She slightly leans towards the bulky man and her words continue.
"The cane in his hand is no ordinary cane. It is a very old Victorian cane gun."
Hearing her sudden words, everyone who heard quietly inhale a mouthful of air. In one swift motion, their heads turn to the direction Steward Yang had gone.
Although the sky was dark and the only light for them was the moon, each person can vaguely make out the elderly man's figure slowly moving in the distance.
He looked like an ordinary grandpa taking a night stroll, but to think he is well concealed.
No wonder Ju Suo stopped them. The old man had the capability to protect himself, but he decided to turn a blind eye to the stupid man from Red Moon.
As those keeping watch outside thought to himself, inside Fate's computer room, Lu Tian's eyes slightly narrow as he touch his chin in thinking too.
He had watched everything happen from the monitor screen and he finds Steward Yang to be a very interesting old man.
Even he can't help but wonder why he doesn't have such a person on his side.
Seated to next to the businessman, Liu Shan sneers at the same monitor. He did not hesitate to press the earpiece he was wearing. He needs to inform his boss about this.
No one enters Fate and disrespects them.
