"Leng Shao, you're amazing!"
Ye Zixiao, who was watching the commotion, chimed in.
To Ye Zixiao, this was no big deal. No matter what city you were in, or what your identity was, bullying people was definitely not acceptable. Since he had encountered it, he had to intervene.
It was precisely because of Ye Zixiao's personality.
That Leng Shao acted so recklessly.
"How about that? Are you convinced?"
Leng Shao asked, stepping on the little mustache's head.
"I'm convinced, I'm convinced, big brother, I was wrong!"
The little mustache, already beaten beyond recognition, no longer dared to make a scene. Although very unwilling, he still pleaded, "Big brother, please don't hit me anymore. You're amazing, I'm a dog's scrotum."
"That's more like it!"
Leng Shao finally released his foot.
"I was wrong!"
"I'll never dare to do it again."
"Big brother, please don't hit me."
The street punks on the ground were all begging for mercy.
"Listen up, all of you!"
Leng Shao, with his left hand on his hip, shouted arrogantly, "I don't care who you are, and I don't care what young master you have behind you. From now on, in the northern suburbs of Longdu, everyone who sees me, Leng Shao, will get the hell out of my way."
"Leng Shao?"
"Never heard of him!"
"Is he a new big shot?"
"Never mind, let's just yield for now!"
The punks on the ground muttered for a while, all thinking it was better to yield first. They were definitely no match for them in a fight. As long as they survived this ordeal, it wouldn't be too late to seek revenge.
"Did you hear me?"
Leng Shao shouted arrogantly.
"We heard you."
"We heard you, brother."
"We were wrong, we were wrong."
The little punks acted very submissively.
"What's my name? Did you remember?"
"You're Leng Shao!"
"Leng Shao, please let us go!"
"...!"
After a round of yielding and begging, seeing that Leng Shao had turned away, the little punks hurriedly got up, helped their leader, the little mustache, up, and fled in a panic.
"Leng Shao, you just wait for me."
The little mustache, who had run far away, shouted loudly.
"I'll be damned, still not convinced?"
Leng Shao struck a pose as if to chase after him.
Boom—
The little mustache turned and bolted…
"He's nothing, pfft!"
Leng Shao spat, then walked to the old man and pulled him up from the ground, saying, "Are you alright, old man? Don't be afraid. I said I'd protect you, and I will."
"Thank you, Leng Shao."
The old man remembered this name.
"Ahem, you can just call me Xiao Leng. Oh, right, old man, where do you live? I'll give you a ride home. Those brats are quite nasty. If we leave, they might come back to bully you."
"No need, I have a car."
The old man said, pointing towards the road by the bank.
Leng Shao turned his head to look.
He saw an electric bicycle parked over there.
"Alright then, be careful."
"Okay, thank you!"
"Hey, no need to be so polite. Hurry up and go!"
"Okay, I'm going!"
The old man nodded and started packing his fishing gear.
Leng Shao got into the car with Ye Zixiao and saw Lin Qingzhu in the car with a flushed face. The windows were all rolled down, but there was still a smell in the car, a peculiar smell.
"Did you guys get into a fight?"
Lin Qingzhu asked with a red face.
"I didn't fight!"
Ye Zixiao sat next to Lin Qingzhu.
"Sister-in-law, I did the fighting."
Leng Shao got into the driver's seat and said casually, "A bunch of street punks were bullying an old man, and I couldn't stand it, so I acted as a vigilante. Damn it, they even mentioned the Third Young Master of the Jin family, who do they think they're trying to scare? Damn!"
"Who?"
Lin Qingzhu subconsciously asked.
"Ah? Who what?"
"You said, who did the street punks mention?"
"Something about the Jin family, the Third Young Master."
"Uh!"
Lin Qingzhu's expression changed after hearing this.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Zixiao asked from the side.
"Zixiao, Xiao Leng, you might have gotten into trouble. I've been in Longdu for some time now. In the entire Longdu, there's only one family that dares to call themselves the Jin family, and only one that dares to call themselves the Third Young Master of the Jin family."
"Is the Jin family very powerful?"
Ye Zixiao asked with a smile.
"Zixiao, don't laugh so soon. If it's really the Third Young Master of the Jin family, this trouble is quite significant. The Jin family is a noble family, with members in business, government, the military, and even the underworld…"
"So what?"
Ye Zixiao remained dismissive.
"This Longdu is not Beihai. The Jin family dares to openly engage in underworld activities, so they must have super powerful protectors. In short, try your best not to provoke them, okay?"
Lin Qingzhu shook Ye Zixiao.
"Alright, alright, let's go home!"
Ye Zixiao smiled affectionately and nodded.
Leng Shao in the front said nothing. He wasn't foolish. He could tell from Lin Qingzhu's tone that he might have indeed caused trouble. Although Ye Zixiao was very powerful, this was Longdu.
In Beihai.
Everyone knew Ye Zixiao.
But in Longdu.
Ye Zixiao was still an unknown.
However, for someone like Leng Shao, any worry only lasted for three minutes. Soon, he was driving, blasting rock music, shaking his head and swaying to the beat.
When they returned to the Lin family villa.
It was already dark.
Ye Zixiao didn't see Tang Keke. Upon asking, he learned that Tang Keke had already left. It seemed she was sensible and didn't want Lin Qingzhu to be wary, so she found an excuse and left.
Dinner was very rich.
The whole family drank alcohol.
This warm reunion made Ye Zixiao very happy. He drank a few extra glasses out of joy. Perhaps he was too tired lately, or perhaps he was too tired in the car. He fell asleep before ten o'clock.
Around midnight.
Ye Zixiao's phone rang.
Ye Zixiao, still groggy, fumbled for his phone, pressed the answer button, and said with annoyance, "Who is it? It's past midnight. If you're selling loans, don't blame me for finding you online."
"Your surname is Ye, right?"
A wild voice from the other side asked.
"Ah, yes, what's up?"
"Do you know Jiang Xiaoyao?"
"Who?"
Ye Zixiao finally opened his eyes.
"Ye, there's someone named Jiang Xiaoyao who smashed our bar. But she doesn't have any money to pay us. She said you're her big brother, so if that's the case, bring money and pick her up!"
"What the hell did you say?"
Ye Zixiao sat up, stunned.
Jiang Xiaoyao?
Smashed someone's bar?
No money to pay?
This was utter nonsense!
"Taoyuan Bar!"
The other party stated the name and hung up.
"I'll be damned, are they messing with me?"
Ye Zixiao was still in a daze.
Who was Jiang Xiaoyao? She was his fifth senior sister! The dignified sect leader of the Asura Sect, would she smash someone's bar? Moreover, how could she possibly not have money to pay? Even more importantly, wasn't she in Beihai?
"What's wrong?"
Lin Qingzhu asked groggily from the side.
"This is crazy!"
Ye Zixiao stared for a moment, then called Jiang Xiaoyao's phone. The signal was connected, but it was hung up. He called again, and it was hung up again. He called three more times, and all were hung up.
"What's going on?"
Lin Qingzhu was now awake.
"Strange?!"
Ye Zixiao rolled out of bed, put on his clothes, and said, "I received a call saying my fifth senior sister caused trouble and has no money to pay. I can't get her on the phone either. Alright, you sleep, I'll go take a look."
"Who, Sect Leader Jiang?"
Lin Qingzhu's eyes widened.
"You sleep, it's nothing."
"I'll go with you!"
"No need, it's not a big deal!"
"Then be careful!"
"Okay!"
Ye Zixiao put on his clothes, patted Lin Qingzhu's head, then called Leng Shao again and said, "If you're not asleep, come with me to do something. If you are, then forget it."
"Brother Xiao, I'm at a rave."
Noisy sounds came from the other side.
"Then you rave!"
"No, Brother Xiao, I'll go with you."
"Taoyuan Bar!"
"Got it, be there soon."
Leng Shao shouted excitedly.
