Chapter 1498 1493: I, He Xiaowei, Have Never Been Easily Intimidated [Fourth Update]
"Chen Shuo?" The speaker was none other than Jiangdu's former 'big brother,' Chen Shuo, who was personally invited by He Xiaowei this time.But now, Chen Shuo was a shadow of his former glory.
Back then, Chen Shuo forcibly took over 'Red Building' from Killer Red with the help of Su Chen.
That period was undoubtedly the most glorious time in Chen Shuo's life. Although Su Chen was nominally his backer, there wasn't much interference in his affairs. He was still the big brother.
But unfortunately, the good times didn't last long.
Killer Red returned later, and Su Chen was no longer around.
Still, he had enough guts. Even when suddenly captured by the returning Killer Red, he stubbornly refused to reveal any information about Su Chen.
Of course, it might also be because he didn't know much about Su Chen's affairs in the first place.
Fortunately, Su Chen arrived in time and saved his life.
But since then, Chen Shuo seemed to have turned into an invisible person, disappearing from this Jianghu.
Su Chen and Killer Red had crossed paths, but it never came to a life-and-death battle. Chen Shuo himself wasn't a match for Killer Red, so naturally, he gave up the idea of revenge.
However, he was still known as one of the three 'untouchable' Shuo Brothers in Jiangdu.
As long as he was alive, he couldn't be easily ignored.
That's why He Xiaowei invited him to witness the gamble between him and Gongzi Ge today.
Before Gongzi Ge and Su Chen arrived, the relationship between He Xiaowei and Chen Shuo, though not exactly warm, was relatively harmonious.
But now, why was Chen Shuo losing it?
"Chen Shuo, I respect you as a Jianghu elder and call you 'Brother Shuo,' but you call me 'Master?' If I don't give you face... you're nothing!"
He Xiaowei hadn't even heard of Su Chen's name. When he heard Chen Shuo call out 'Master Chen,' what actually came to his mind was 'Master Chen.'
Master Chen? Isn't Chen Shuo's surname Chen?
"He Xiaowei, I naturally don't qualify to call you 'Master,' but open your dog eyes and look closely, Master Chen is standing right in front of you! You think you can bare your teeth at Master Chen? You damn well aren't qualified!" Chen Shuo wasn't angry at He Xiaowei's words.
Jiangdu could have a Master, but that Master could only be Su Chen, not him, Chen Shuo.
He clearly understood his position; he could be the 'big brother,' but the Master would always be Su Chen, precisely because he had seen Su Chen's strength.
That's why Chen Shuo held Su Chen in such high regard.
Chen Shuo pushed through the crowd towards Su Chen.
"Master Chen." Chen Shuo said respectfully.
Su Chen remained noncommittal.
But this call of 'Master Chen,' accompanied by his slightly bowed back, left a strong impression.
The name of Chen Shuo, 'Brother Shuo,' even those who hadn't seen him before had often heard of his reputation.
What kind of existence could make Jiangdu's one-time tyrant, 'Brother Shuo,' refer to them as 'Master Chen'?
When they heard the name 'Master Chen,' many were surprised and shocked.
In reality, not many people truly knew Su Chen's reputation; it was only because Chen Shuo had Su Chen's support that he managed to take 'Red Building' from Aunty Red.
But back then, most people thought it was just a battle between Chen Shuo and Aunty Red, where Chen Shuo emerged victorious.
They didn't know that behind Chen Shuo stood someone like Su Chen.
But now it was different.
In broad daylight, Chen Shuo respectfully addressed Su Chen as 'Master Chen.'
These simple two words carried a significant weight.
Gongzi Ge looked at Su Chen in shock. For a moment, she was a bit lost.
If Su Chen was a big figure who could be called 'Master Chen' by 'Brother Shuo,' then why did he need to come through her just to find a young girl?
And agree to join this gambling drinking match with her, only to make a simple request for 'more money'?
Was the so-called 'Master Chen' so cheaply priced? Could he be bought for just a mere one million?
While Gongzi Ge was in a daze, Su Chen turned around and grinned at her. "Now, maybe a million isn't enough? Didn't I just help you win five million from him? Remember to share some with me later."
Gongzi Ge dumbly nodded. A strange thought crossed her mind: "This guy... still seems so greedy?"
Not far behind Gongzi Ge stood Qi Xiaohu, who had come along with Su Chen. His mouth was wide enough to fit two eggs.
He stared wide-eyed, mouth agape. Earlier, Su Chen's terrifying drinking skills had already left people dumbfounded. But the thing was, he was still the 'Car God.'
But how did he suddenly become 'Master Chen' in Brother Shuo's words now?
Qi Xiaohu had interacted with Chen Shuo before; he could even be counted as one of the younger brothers who hung around with Chen Shuo. He had occasionally heard of the existence of 'Master Chen' from Chen Shuo during their drinking sessions.
But unfortunately, he had never had the chance to meet the legendary 'Master Chen.'
Only today did he finally meet him, and now he found it hard to believe.
The legendary 'Master Chen' turned out to be so young, so...
"...Awesome!" Qi Xiaohu closed his wide-open mouth, finally forcing out just one sentence.
Quietly observing Su Chen within the crowd, Li Lin also sighed.
Su Chen's strength was too formidable. He had suffered losses at Su Chen's hands time and again before.
In the end, even his father made a move and suffered significant losses at Su Chen's hands, advising him that Su Chen was not someone to mess with.
He remembered Li Yun's words well, so when he saw Su Chen making an appearance, he wisely and promptly retreated to the side, not giving Su Chen a chance to slap his face.
Among the many second-generation rich kids present, most didn't recognize or know Su Chen's name.
After all, Su Chen wasn't part of their circle.
But Chen Shuo and the others knew. If even Chen Shuo had to call him 'Master,' he must be someone significant.
Su Chen's youth intrigued people, also invoking skepticism — why did he deserve to be called 'Master'?
"Chen Shuo, are you planning to disrespect me?" He Xiaowei's eyes were cold, his face sullen.
Chen Shuo was openly humiliating him!
Chen Shuo was just an ordinary person. Compared to him, Chen Shuo was indeed insignificant, as he was a Martial Artist, and at the Peak of the Mortal Realm!
"Give you face? What face do you have in front of Master Chen? Now, bow down obediently and apologize to Master Chen, then seek Gongzi Ge's forgiveness. I might plead for you in front of Master Chen. Don't think you're something just because people call you 'Fifth Master He.' In the presence of 'Master Chen,' you're just a pile of shit."
Was Chen Shuo throwing a tantrum? No, he wasn't; he was just highly revering of Su Chen.
Master Chen and Aunty Red were in a class of their own, but as for He Xiaowei? He wasn't even as good as himself! Being arrogant meant nothing!
"Chen Shuo, since you're courting death, I might as well settle you today. I've never been easily intimidated!" He Xiaowei retorted.
