    Baren invited the two of them to sit and eat.

    At the same time, the bodyguards took up their positions outside the door to keep anyone else from entering.

    It was not only Wang Yun and Colin who were surprised. Even the viewers in the livestream were stunned.

    “Big Bro can actually look surprised too?”

    “Mom, I’ve made it in life. In my lifetime, I actually got to see Big Bro show a shocked expression!”

    “Big Bro is Big Bro indeed. Even when he goes to eat, the boss opens the door for him personally!”

    “So this guy is Colin’s scheming boss???”

    “The person above, didn’t you see Colin’s jaw almost hit the floor?”

    “Exactly. One look and you can tell he’s Colin’s boss. Who would’ve thought someone who looks so honest could be that sly?”

    “The person above is right. You can know a face, but not a heart!”

    “The outside world is so scary. Big Brother, hurry up and take me home!”

    “In your dreams. Big Brother would obviously take me home. I’m so virtuous, after all.”

    “You two are enough already. If Big Brother takes anyone home, it should be someone like me, who can shine in public and handle the kitchen too, okay?”

    And just like that, the chat devolved into a debate over who Wang Yun should take home.

    ***

    Meanwhile, inside the private room, the three of them had already taken their seats. A smile appeared on Wang Yun’s face looking at the dishes laid out on the table.

    “Hello. You must be Mr. Baren, Brother Colin’s boss, right?”

    Baren nodded.

    “Little brother, there’s no need to be so polite. We’re all brothers here.”

    Wang Yun nodded, then spoke with a trace of meaning in his tone.

    “My name is Wang Yun. But becoming your brother seems like it comes at a rather high price, doesn’t it?”

    Baren immediately smiled and pretended not to understand.

    “Brother Wang Yun, what are you saying? I ordered all of this specially for you. I heard another brother came with you as well?”

    Wang Yun nodded.

    “He’s not feeling well, so he didn’t come.”

    Baron immediately put on a look of concern and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?”

    Wang Yun shook his head and looked seriously at the smiling tiger in front of him.

    “Mr. Baron, you should also know why I came.”

    Baron smiled at once.

    “I have a guess.”

    Wang Yun did not care about his reaction and continued directly.

    “Then I’ll be frank.”

    Baron nodded.

    “All right, Brother Wang Yun. Speak freely.”

    Wang Yun lowered his head for a moment, organizing his thoughts, then looked up at Colin.

    “What you told Brother Colin, he already told me about that you’d give him his freedom after this match.”

    At those words, Baron’s expression stiffened slightly. He had made some guesses about why Wang Yun had come, but he had never imagined Colin would tell him everything.

    The smile on his face was already starting to crack.

    Wang Yun did not give him a chance to explain and continued, “I don’t care whether you truly intend to set my brother free after this match. As long as you write me a letter of guarantee, I’ll fight in his place in the match the day after tomorrow.”

    Wang Yun looked at Baron with complete confidence.

    Baron looked back at Wang Yun, his expression unreadable.

    “Little brother, it’s not that I, as your elder brother, want to speak harshly. You’re saying all this with nothing but your mouth. Just because you say you can win the championship, does that mean you can definitely defeat Achir? You should know that Achir has already beaten six opponents in a row. That’s why his odds are so high. And in the next match, Achir will definitely fight with his life on the line to win.”

    As he said that, a strange, teasing look appeared on Baron’s face, as if he were waiting for Wang Yun to ask why.

    Wang Yun played along and asked, “Oh? Why is that?”

    Baron said proudly, “Because I found out that Achir also has an agreement with his boss. If he wins seven matches in a row, he’ll be set free. For the sake of his freedom, he’ll definitely fight to the death.”

    Wang Yun nodded in cooperation, putting on a look of sudden understanding.

    “So that’s how it is. But don’t worry. If I say I’ll win, then I definitely will.”

    Hearing Wang Yun speak with such confidence, Baron could not help looking a little uncertain.

    “And what exactly makes you so sure you can beat Achir?”

    ‘Because I can learn a god-tier boxing skill,’ Wang Yun answered in his mind.

    But there was no way he could say that to anyone.

    Looking at the deeply skeptical Baron in front of him, Wang Yun thought for a moment, then said with full confidence,

    “What if I told you we’re currently participating in an escape show? Would you believe me?”

    Clatter—

    The chopsticks in Colin’s hand fell onto the table the moment Wang Yun finished speaking.

    At the same time, the abrupt sound jolted Baron out of his shock. His face immediately darkened.

    “Brother Wang Yun, I called you brother, and you’re trying to screw me over?”

    Wang Yun shook his head.

    “You’re overthinking it. I’m not targeting anyone. And you haven’t gotten involved in anything you shouldn’t have, have you?” Wang Yun said meaningfully.

    Baron thought it over. That was true. He had not done anything truly heinous. Even if others found out, it would not have much real impact.

    At the side, Colin wanted to say something. Then he suddenly remembered what Brother Wang Yun had told him at the door, “When we go in, you don’t need to say anything. Just listen to me. If you have questions, ask them after we go back.”

    So Colin swallowed the words that had reached his lips.
