Chapter 258 Are You Human?

"Brother Yiyuan, why are you here?"

Chi Yiyuan walked up to Su Xiaotian, who was clapping and calling out numbers, and dotingly patted her head. "I've been busy these past few days, and I finally have some free time today, so I came to see you!"

Chi Yiyuan's words immediately made Su Xiaotian's brothers feel a bit displeased. What did he mean by that?

What did he mean by "came to see Xiaotian"?

Did Xiaotian need the concern of an outsider like him?

"Chi Yiyuan, come help!" Su Ciliang's eyes rolled, and he immediately spoke.

Chi Yiyuan was so speechless he almost rolled his eyes.

It was absolutely no problem for the Su brothers to deal with these few thugs, but they insisted on him coming forward to help.

But could he refuse?

No!

Chi Yiyuan kneaded his knuckles and stepped forward to help.

With eight brothers fighting seven, victory was already within their grasp. Who knew another helper would arrive?

This fight was no different from a one-sided beating.

"Little Four, slow down! Let them get some hits in too!"

The thugs were beaten until they were spitting blood, yet they still heard Su Ciliang say this.

They almost died of frustration on the spot.

"Hey, I know, Second Brother. I say, you guys are here to fight or to pretend to be dead?"

A street fight among a group of young men quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Some of them recognized these thugs and knew they were there to cause trouble for Yiming Pavilion.

They were initially worried, but seeing how the few young men in the house were beating the thugs to the ground, they wanted to applaud.

However, they didn't dare to applaud for fear of offending the thugs.

But Su Xiaotian, without any fear, clapped her hands directly.

"Go, brothers, go! Fight well! Oh, Seventh Brother, your punch wasn't strong enough! Second Brother, you're amazing... Brother Yiyuan, punch faster!"

Su Xiaotian was even providing commentary as a spectator.

The few thugs were truly about to vomit blood.

Seven people came to their door and were beaten up.

And they were beaten up by a few youngsters younger than them.

They had been fooling around all these years.

Who said these were country bumpkins from the northwest?

Were country bumpkins this formidable now?

They regretted it now, could they?

Su Xiaotian, seeing her brothers fighting with gusto, couldn't help but want to step forward, but was pulled back by Grandma Su.

"Good child, let your brothers handle the fighting. You're a little girl, don't learn from them!"

Su Xiaotian looked at Grandma Su, feeling a bit bewildered. Why did she feel like Grandma was a little displeased with her brothers?

"Grandma, I won't fight, I won't fight. I'm a good child!" Su Xiaotian said with a sweet smile.

Grandma Su was relieved, but Grandpa Su looked at his granddaughter this way and couldn't quite believe it.

This little girl was probably even more violent than her brothers.

The brothers were having fun fighting.

Yes, that's right, they were having fun fighting.

The cat playing with the mouse was a true depiction of their current fierce battle.

The thugs were now on the verge of tears.

What kind of family was this?

How could they hit so hard?

"Old Brother, you should tell your grandsons to stop. Ordinary families can't afford to offend these thugs. If you beat them today, they'll retaliate tomorrow."

An old man quietly walked up to Grandpa Su and whispered his advice.

Grandpa Su thanked the old man sincerely.

"Thank you for the reminder, but the beating has already happened. If we stop now, they might still retaliate."

Grandpa Su saw this point very clearly.

None of them were good people, and they wouldn't be grateful just because they stopped now.

On the contrary, if they couldn't subdue them this time, it would lead to endless trouble in the future.

"But if this continues, the police might be alerted!" the old man reminded him again.

Grandpa Su then remembered that this was indeed a problem.

"You few brats, hurry up!" Grandpa Su shouted.

The old man was stunned. What was going on?

At such an old age, he was still as hot-tempered as the young people?

The few boys who heard Grandpa Su's words immediately sped up... oh, their punching speed and the force of their punches!

Immediately, the few thugs began to wail.

It was only then that they realized that these people hadn't used their full strength just now; they were just playing with them.

"Spare us, all you great heroes, all you valiant men, spare us!" one of them couldn't help but beg for mercy.

As for the others, once one person took the lead, they all immediately began to beg for mercy.

"Begging for mercy? First, answer me, who hired you to cause trouble at our restaurant?" Su Shouwen paused, then asked in a low voice.

With just these few thugs, there was no past enmity or recent grudges. How could they have come to their door?

The only possibility was that someone had paid them to smash and loot, to disrupt their family's business in the capital.

Of course, it was also possible that they wanted them to leave the capital.

But the few people hesitated, and not a single one spoke.

"Not talking?" As soon as Su Ciliang finished speaking, he kicked the ankle of a thug next to him.

The bone-piercing pain made the thug instantly let out a loud and high-pitched scream.

Seeing their second brother make a move, the other brothers did not hesitate and attacked.

The situation, which had just eased, intensified again.

"Speak, or don't speak, you decide!" Su Ciliang brandished his fist.

"You can't hit people like this!"

One of the thugs suddenly thought of this and immediately reminded them.

Su Shouwen said sincerely, "You're right, we can't hit people!"

The thug's heart leaped with joy, thinking he was saved.

But at this moment, Su Shouwen spoke again.

"But are you people? You're not. You're just a bunch of thugs!"

The thug who had just smiled had his expression instantly petrified.

What did this mean?

Were thugs not people?

Did thugs not deserve to be called people?

Su Xiaotian burst into laughter. Her eldest brother's words were hilarious!

"I'm just asking if you'll talk!" Su Ciliang lost his patience.

Why waste time arguing with these people?

"I advise you to release us properly. You can't possibly guard this restaurant every day, can you?"

This statement was clearly a threat.

As long as you don't guard it every day and don't go out, we'll have a chance to smash the restaurant and beat up the people inside.

Indeed, after this sentence was uttered, even the surrounding onlookers' expressions changed.

The people around them all looked at the Su family with concern.

This included Grandpa Su, Grandma Su, and Liang Xiu.

The children couldn't stay in the restaurant long-term. If they were gone, the remaining old, weak, women, and children would be at their mercy.

If the children were not there, they could only be passively beaten, and the restaurant might not be saved!

Seeing this scene, the few thugs probably felt that they had grasped the Su family's Achilles' heel.

They smiled triumphantly!

Su Xiaotian's smiling face gradually faded.
