"I... I was wrong!"
"Brother, stop hitting me, I'm sorry!"
"I'll never dare to do it again!"
The so-called Brother Li, now with his head hung low, looked as awful as one could possibly look.
It was only now that he had a sudden realization that Chen Fan was someone he absolutely could not afford to offend.
Thus, he bowed his head in submission.
Seeing this, Chen Fan scoffed, "I thought your bones were made of tougher stuff!"
"Turns out, not so much!"
Xia Bingqing said, "Alright, let's go!"
"Certainly!"
They prepared to leave.
The black-clad bodyguards from the banquet hall now rushed forward.
One by one, they exuded a menacing aura.
Leading them was a bald man, giving off a fierce impression.
He was also holding a rubber baton.
"Who? Who's causing trouble in our territory?"
"Step forward!"
"Damn it, are you tired of living?"
Chen Fan heard the commotion and shouted, "I..."
"Who the hell are you..." The bald man was about to curse, but as he approached and saw Chen Fan's face, his legs gave out as if a floodgate had opened, and he immediately knelt on the ground, looking incredibly pathetic. The onlookers, witnessing this scene, were stunned.
This...
Who was this young man?
How could he make someone from the underworld kneel directly?
This was too formidable!
Especially Brother Li and his group; their hearts leaped into their throats upon seeing this. For a moment, they thought they were going to be killed.
"It... it's Brother Fan!"
"Forgive my disrespect in not greeting you earlier, Brother Fan. I beg your pardon!"
Chen Fan waved his hand dismissively, acting as if it were nothing. "Alright, stop with the nonsense, get up quickly!"
The reason this bald man recognized Chen Fan was because Chen Fan had previously single-handedly cleaned up the entire underworld of Lin City.
Therefore, he had become a legendary figure.
His appearance was seared into the minds of everyone in Lin City's underworld.
The bald man dared not get up, but he still asked, "How should these scumbags who offended you be handled?"
Chen Fan casually replied, "Let them go. They look young..."
"Yes!"
And so, the three of them left.
Only then did the bald man rise from the ground and cast a cold glare at Brother Li and his group.
He was extremely angry. They were the ones who had caused trouble today. While they might be spared death, they couldn't just get away with it.
He roared, "Take them to the second floor!"
"Yes, boss!"
Thus, Brother Li and his group were led to the second floor.
It was at this moment that Brother Li and the others became panicked, their faces growing more and more grim.
"No... don't, we were wrong!"
"Brother, please, don't kill us!"
"We're still students, please! Give us another chance!"
"Just... just once, really!"
The bald man paid no heed. After bringing all of them to the second floor, he shouted, "Beat them! Beat them hard, let them know how powerful we are!"
"Damn it, a bunch of little scumbags, daring to provoke Brother Fan. After drinking a bit of horse urine, you don't even know your own name anymore!"
"Damn, what kind of trash are they?"
Brother Li and the others pleaded for mercy, begging and praying.
"B... Brother, we were wrong, we truly know we were wrong!"
"Sorry!"
"Really... really sorry!"
However, no matter how much they begged, it was useless. They were being beaten mercilessly.
