Chapter 137


    Han was dragged away, looking helpless. “There’s no need to be so scared, is there?”


    “You don’t understand what’s at stake here. Hurry up and leave. Noah rushed to the elevator with a


    solemn look.


    The two soon left the Garden Hotel and appeared on the street.


    Only then did Noah let down his heart and take a deep breath. “Finally, we don’t have to worry so much


    anymore,” he said, looking rxed


    Han looked at Noah with a pained expression.

    He felt sad that his good friend had turned out like this.


    “Han,e on. I’ll treat you to barbecue.”


    Noah enthusiastically led Han to a grill house 1.2 miles from the Garden Hotel. He sat down, called


    the owner, and ordered lots of food in one go.


    Noal waspletely rxed when he got there. His expression was natural, and he became more


    talkative.


    He said to Han as he ordered, “I’m not afraid to tell you that I feel ufortable staying in that hotel


    just now. It’s better to stay at the grill house. Let’s get drunk today.”


    “No problem!”


    Smiling. Han raised his hand and said. “Boss, four more barbecued ribs, one pound of beef, and a


    dozen beers.”


    “There’s so much food. Can we finish them all? Noali’s heart ached.


    “Don’t worry. The meal is on me. You can eat as much as you like. We have a lot to talk about,” Han


    said with a smile.


    Noah heaved a sigh of relief when he heard him. “Great! I’m not afraid that you’llugh at me. I haven’t


    eaten barbecue for a long time since my family went bankrupt.”


    The owner brought over a dozen beers at the moment.


    Han opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Noah Tell me. What’s going on with your family?” he


    said.


    “Well, it all started eight years ago.”


    Noah drank half a bottle of wine in one breath. His eyes reddened as countless memories surged into


    his mind. He said with difficulty. “Didn’t the three of us cause trouble that year? You were hunted down


    and fled abroad, and we had a hard time.”


    His voice choked as he told Han his story.


    It turned out that after Han left for a foreign country eight years ago, Noah and Perry were also


    attacked by those people, leaving behind injuries. They even missed the SAT and could not go to


    college.


    It was not the end!


    Noah’s family went into business and lived a prosperous life two yearster.


    Noah was doing quite well helping out at his family business.


    However, everything changed three yearster.


    That year, Perry copsed on Noah’s doorstep, covered in blood.


    Noah sent Perry to the hospital for treatment. Then, he learned that Perry had gone out into the world


    after high school


    Due to hisck of educational qualifications, Perry did all sorts of jobs that did not require his


    educational qualifications. He worked as a security guard, a waiter, and a cleaner. He had done


    everything to earn money.


    Later, Perry became a waiter at a bar and hooked up with a rich woman.


    As a result, the rich woman’s lover picked on him and broke one of his legs.


    How could Perry, whose personality was hotter than Han’s or Noah’s, let it go?


    He endured the pain and tried his best to take revenge. Finally, he broke one of the man’s legs and got


    his revenge.


    It was precisely because of it that Perry got into big trouble. He was retaliated by the gang and was


    beaten until he was covered in blood and almost died. He had no choice but to turn to Noah for help.


    Noah was also very loyal. After saving Perry, he immediately drew on his influence to arrange a


    meeting with the man who beat up Perry to negotiate. Then heid an ambush and beat the man up


    severely to get revenge.


    However, it made things worse for them.


    The person they beat was the nephew of Hugh Croydon, one of the Four Kings.


    Since his nephew was beaten up, Hugh naturally would not sit idly by. He attacked on the spot. Not


    only did he cripple Perry, but he also taught Noah a lesson and made the Wrinkler family go bankrupt.


    Hugh was petty, vengeful, and quibble. He was still unhappy after making the Wrinkler family go


    bankrupt. Over the years, he had been attacking Noah’s and Perry’s families everywhere, causing


    them to live humble lives beyond their means. Moreover, Hugh used a scheme to get both families to


    owe huge debts. They were suppressed every day.


    Noah’s wife also divorced him and left him with their children.


    Perry was more miserable. His legs and one hand were broken, leaving only one healthy hand.


    They both were tortured by Hugh and were abandoned by everyone. They lived lowly lives and were


    better off dead.


    It was precisely because Perry was crippled that he could not attend their gathering.


    After finishing his story, Noah felt even more depressed and kept drinking.


    Fortunately, the owner of the grill house worked fast and served the two of them various beef, chicken


    wings, grilled meat, and barbecued ribs.


    Noah was drinking and eating barbecue. His eyes were red, and the tears welled up in them.


    Over the years, they both suffered greatly. Just thinking about it made him sad.


    He had never regretted what he had done. However, he burst into tears when he thought about how his


    parents and rtives had been implicated by him and lived a life that was oppressed and worse than


    death.


    After listening to his story. Han caught the point on the spot. His face turned cold. “Perry was


    crippled?”


    Noah downed another bottle of beer and nodded gloomily.


    Upon hearing it. Han’s eyes instantly darkened. He said in a deep voice. “Where is Perry staying


    now?”


    After hearing what happened to his two friends, a fire rose in his chest that almost burned his blood


    vessels.


    All of this was not about Perry and Noah causing trouble. Instead, it was about Hugh and the others


    bulled them!


    It was outrageous!


    However, he really wanted to see Perry right now instead of taking revenge for his friends..


    Noah nced at the time and said, “It’s toote. Perry should be asleep by now Let’s go to see him


    tomorrow. Come on, have a drink with me.”


    Then he opened a can of Budweiser and handed it to Han.


    Han picked up the beer and drank it.


    The cold beer shed across his throat, but it could not extinguish the anger burning in his chest.


    The colder the beer, the angrier he got!


    Han drank his beer and looked at Noah’s face, which looked haggard as the face of a forty-year-old


    man. His heart was aching.


    He was a man who was not even 30 years old, yet he had been tortured to such an old and weathered


    state.


    Not only was the light in his eyes gone but his face was also filled with sorrow and vicissitudes. He


    seemed to have lost any longing for life, which made one’s heartache.


    “Let’s not talk about us.”


    Noah looked at Han and asked curiously, “Is everything you said on WhatsApp true?”


    Previously, Han had said he lived in hell and was better off dead than alive. He was much worse off


    than them.


    He was curious if it was true.


    Without another word, Han took off his shirt and revealed all the scars on his body to Noah


    The knife scars, gunshot wounds, sword scars, burn marks…


    Various scars crawled all over Han’s body. What a shocking sight.


    Upon seeing it, Noah was stunned.


    “The scar on my abdomen was left by a man who cut me in the Demon’s Den while I was trying to


    escape. He almost cut out my intestines.


    “Do you see the bullet hole? It was from a mercenary. At that time, the bullet was only about 1 inch


    away from my heart.


    “Also, the sword scar on my arm was inflicted by a killer when I was fighting with him for my life. He


    smeared poison on his sword. I would have been amputated and crippled if it weren’t for my master’s


    medical skills.”


    Han pounted at the scars on his body and told Noah the stories of each as if he knew them by heart.


    He said them casually, but Noal was terrified to hear them.


    Basically, every wound nearly killed Han.


    Looking at the scars on Han’s body, Noah felt even more upset. He gulped down a few more


    mouthfuls of beer, and tears blurred his eyes.


    “Actually, I’m a little luckier than you guys”


    Han put on his clothes and said calmly. “Although I entered the Demon’s Den, I met my master, who


    changed my life,


    “Let’s not talk so much. Come on, let’s drink and get drunk tonight.”


    Noah raised his ss and kept drinking.


    Han, aware of Noah’s anguish, did not persuade him. He went all out for Noah and drank with him.


    Just as they were enjoying their drinks, suddenly there were nine people drinking in another ce


    inside the grill house.


    When the nine people were in high spirits, a middle-aged man in ck with a plump face stood up. He


    chuckled and looked at the three women near the entrance of the grill house. “Guys, these girls are


    good-looking, Look, I’ll go over and do them. now!” he said with a smile.


    Then he took advantage of the strength of the wine and staggered toward the three beauties who were


    eating barbecue at the door. He hugged one of the women’s shoulders and said with a sinister smile,


    “Beauty, you’re so pretty. Are you here for prostitution? Tell me, how much for a night? I’ll buy you


    tonight”


    “Are you out of your mind? Get lost!” The woman was delicate and pretty. One look and one could tell


    that she was from a proper family. After being harassed by the man, she pushed him away unhappily.


    “I’m buying you because I think highly of you. I pay you respect, and don’t give me shit,” said the man


    in ck. His eyes suddenly turned cold.


    “I don’t even know you. Are you crazy? Get away, or I’ll call the police!” The woman said unhappily.


    How could she not be angry when she came to have a barbecue but was treated as that kind of


    woman?


    “Fuck you! Who are you calling crazy?”


    The Man in ck was furious when he heard that. With a loud p, he pped the woman hard in the


    face, causing her to vomit blood and fall to the ground, looking extremely embarrassed.


    The woman should be someone who was doted on at home and had never been beaten up before.


    Now that she had been beaten up, she was a little stunned.


    “How dare you hit me? I’ll kill youl” the woman said.


    Then, she also flew into a rage. She immediately jumped up, picked up something, and threw it at the


    man in ck.


    ‘Fuck!”


    The man in ck became even more furious after being hit. He kicked the woman to the ground on the


    spot, making a muffled bang.


    “Huh?”


    Han, who was drinking, heard the sound and immediately turned to look in the direction.
