387: Chapter 387: Shut Up If You Don’t Want to Die 387: Chapter 387: Shut Up If You Don’t Want to Die “Take them away.” With a cold order from the man, his subordinates were about to seize people.
“How dare you?
Is there no law anymore?” Fang Min let out a cold shout.
She was also seasoned in societal affairs, and at this moment, Yu Jiao’s anger had a certain force, causing the underlings to hesitate, somewhat shaken by her authority.
“Hmph, you do have some spunk.
As to whether there is law or not, you can discuss that at length once you’re back.
Take them away,” the middle-aged man ordered again.
“Who dares to make a move?” Another cold shout rang out, but this time it wasn’t Fang Min’s voice—it was a man’s.
It wasn’t loud, but it was deep and forceful.
The bustle of the marketplace suddenly erupted into commotion.
“It’s him!” Hearing this voice, Liu Shanshan’s heart skipped a beat, and her gaze shifted in its direction.
Indeed, she saw that familiar figure striding quickly toward them.
Seeing this figure, Liu Shanshan suddenly wanted to cry, wanting to pour out all the grievances in her heart.
Seeing this figure, she knew she was safe, they were all safe.
As long as Tangyu was there, even the fiercest downpour couldn’t bring down this mighty tree.
However, when she saw Guo Momo and the others accompanying Tangyu, especially Lin Feifei with her arm hooked through Tangyu’s, her expression darkened once more.
She had long known about the relationship between Tangyu and Lin Feifei.
She had thought about giving up, but she couldn’t help harboring a sliver of hope every time.
Perhaps she was just torturing herself.
“Tangyu, why is he here too?” Fang Min was also taken aback.
She hadn’t expected to run into Tangyu here.
With her keen sense of insight, after glancing at Liu Shanshan by her side, she quickly surmised most of the reasoning behind this encounter.
Some women are just hopelessly romantic.
There’s a saying that a woman’s IQ becomes zero when she’s in love, and there’s some truth to that.
It’s not scary for a woman to be lovesick; what’s terrifying is being lovesick for the wrong person.
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrow and turned to look around.
He wanted to see who in Miyun Town dared to cross him, Tie Fei.
After all, he was a trusted enforcer for the bald boss and could command more than a dozen underlings.
In Miyun Town, he walked with swagger.
When he saw Guo Momo and her group, his eyes narrowed again.
He was tired of playing with the ordinary and tawdry; his luck seemed pretty good today.
First, he encountered two fairy-like beauties, and now three more had appeared.
If he could play with all five, he’d willingly give up ten years of his life.
Mixing in the underworld meant seeking unrestrained pleasure, playing and doing what you want when you want.
He believed that any woman could be won over through coercion or bribery; he had done this many times and was well-practiced.
Out here where the Emperor’s influence was weak, talking about law was laughable.
As long as no lives were taken, Tie Fei would never be in trouble.
A fight, playing with a woman—weren’t such matters just trivial everyday occurrences?
Seeing the lecherous gaze of Brother Tie Fei, a hint of sharpness flashed in Tangyu’s eyes.
“Brother Tie Fei.” Deng Jianguo called out to the middle-aged man when he saw him.
Brother Tie Fei glanced at Deng Jianguo and scoffed with disdain, “It’s you, what’s it again, fatty, dead fatty, right?
How dare you meddle in my business?”
Deng Jianguo’s face turned pale and fell silent, while Tangyu signaled him not to get involved.
Tangyu didn’t want to drag him into this affair.
“Shanshan, Sister Min, are you alright?” Tangyu asked.
Fang Min looked at Tangyu and said, “If you hadn’t come, we would have been in trouble.”
Tangyu frowned, knowing they must have suffered greatly.
Anger filled him, and a cold arc formed at the corner of his mouth as he looked at Brother Tie Fei, “I’m sorry to inform you that you’ve indeed angered me, and I won’t give you a choice.
Today, I want you to learn how to spell ‘regret’.”
A man’s wrath is for the sake of his beloved, and when he is angry, it is with good reason.
“Dammit, presumptuous brat, who do you think you are, talking to our Brother Tie Fei like that?
Are you looking for death?”
“It seems you don’t know how to write the word ‘death,’ do you?”
Brother Tie Fei let out a cold laugh, finding amusement in Tangyu’s audacity.
In Miyun Town, there weren’t many who dared speak to him with such a tone.
This manner of speaking irked him greatly.
“Take him down,” Brother Tie Fei sneered, and his minions were about to rush forward and beat him up.
“Brother Hong is over there, and it’s them,” another voice rang out.
Another group of about ten people approached, and the crowd parted automatically.
When the two groups met, they hesitated for a moment.
“Hmm, Tie Fei, you are here too?” Brother Hong, upon seeing Brother Tie Fei, greeted him.
“Brother Hong, why are you here?” Brother Tie Fei was also puzzled.
Tangyu looked at this new group, which included the five men he had beaten earlier in the day.
He recognized the man called Brother Hong, how could he not?
He had given him a severe beating just that morning.
Though the injuries weren’t serious, Tangyu had certainly remembered his face.
“Some of my men were beaten up, so I came to find out what’s going on.
Here in Miyun Town, I want to see who dares to mess with my guys,” Brother Hong stated.
Tie Fei said, “Two girls smashed things in my shop and ran away.
I’m here to catch them.
Brother Hong, the person you’re looking for, couldn’t be them, could it?”
Only then did Brother Hong turn to look at Tangyu and his group.
When he saw the sneering Tangyu, he too was shocked as if he had touched a live wire.
His mouth agape, he struggled to speak for a long while.
His complexion turned rather interesting, flashing between shades as he revealed a complicated expression before he finally managed to spit out a few words, “It’s, it’s you!”
“Yes, it’s me.
Why, did I not hit you hard enough this morning?” Tangyu said.
“…”
“If it’s you, then let’s just forget about this matter, as if nothing ever happened,” Brother Hong said, not daring to provoke Tangyu any further.
He remembered the events of the morning all too well, etched clearly in his mind.
The strength of this young man was terrifying, too formidable.
Facing ten of his own men alone, to come out without a single injury, so calm and composed, it was unimaginable how terrifying his true capabilities were.
However, he was certain Tangyu was not someone he could afford to offend.
It didn’t matter that he had brought over a dozen people; they were clearly not enough.
For such a trivial matter, he naturally wouldn’t dare to offend Tangyu.
The five thugs who had been beaten up had thought Brother Hong would stand up for them and help them regain their face.
They didn’t expect that even Brother Hong was so wary of this young man.
They were out of options and could only silently wonder, what kind of background did this young man have that even Brother Hong feared him?
Tie Fei’s face turned even more puzzled as he looked at Brother Hong.
How come they were admitting defeat without even a fight?
The status of Brother Hong was obviously higher than his own, and if even Brother Hong didn’t dare to mess with Tangyu, he certainly needed to be on his guard to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
“Brother Hong, what’s going on?
Who is he?” Tie Fei asked.
“He’s someone you can’t afford to mess with,” Brother Hong glanced at Tie Fei, clearly telling him not to provoke Tangyu.
Tie Fei’s expression darkened.
He understood the significance of Brother Hong’s words.
Since Brother Hong had put it that way, this man was definitely someone he couldn’t mess with, possibly even someone the boss wouldn’t dare to offend.
It really was bad luck to have run into such a tough nut.
“Alright, let’s drop the matter,” Tie Fei said decisively, ready to leave the scene.
Deng Jianguo was so shocked that his mouth hung open wide enough to fit a fist.
He hadn’t expected that even Brother Hong, a major figure among the bald man’s henchmen, would be so deeply cautious of Tangyu.
No wonder he had been so confident.
It seemed Deng Jianguo really had allied himself with a powerful figure, and this was something to take pride in.
“Hold it, did I say you could leave?” Tangyu said coldly.
Tie Fei’s expression turned frosty as he looked at Tangyu, “Then what do you want?”
“I’ve already made myself clear.
I want you to learn what regret means.
When I say something, I make sure to follow through,” Tangyu said.
“Hmph, don’t be too arrogant.
Don’t think for a second that I, Tie Fei, am afraid of you,” Tie Fei said angrily.
“Tie Fei, if you don’t want to die, shut your mouth.
I’ve told you, you can’t afford to provoke him, none of us can.
No one is allowed to intervene, this is between Tie Fei and him.
Anyone who dares to meddle, I’ll cripple them myself,” Brother Hong said.
Tie Fei’s underlings were also stunned but still dared not contradict Brother Hong’s words, and they all subsequently moved aside.
Tie Fei’s complexion turned ashen, and he finally realized Brother Hong was not joking; this matter was indeed no small one.
It looked like he had truly provoked someone unworthy of being provoked.
The onlookers watched Tangyu with peculiar gazes, wondering what kind of person this young man was to be so formidable that even the local toughs feared him so much.
Fang Min and Liu Shanshan also silently breathed a sigh of relief, knowing they were now completely safe.
“Fine, I admit defeat in this matter.
How do you want to resolve it?
Just give it to me straight,” Tie Fei said through gritted teeth.
Tangyu ignored Tie Fei and instead approached Fang Min and Liu Shanshan, checking to make sure they were unharmed before asking, “What happened?”
Fang Min replied with indignation, “Humph, those people are simply shameless bandits.
When Shanshan and I arrived in Miyun Town, a ‘helpful person’ came up to greet us, asking where we wanted to go, if we needed accommodation, and so on.
They mentioned that all the hotels were full but said they had a way.
After checking several hotels, which were indeed full, we believed them.
They then took us to a place.
That’s when these people appeared and swindled us out of all our money using various methods.
When we realized we had been tricked, we argued with them, and accidentally broke something.
They then demanded compensation at an exorbitant price we couldn’t afford.
They wanted us to—wanted us to pay with our bodies.
I found an opportunity, and I ran out with Liu Shanshan, but unfortunately, they caught up to us.”
“Hmph, they are utterly lawless, despicable to the extreme,” Tangyu grew furious.
He turned his head and looked at Tie Fei.
That gaze made Tie Fei feel as if he had been targeted by death itself, sending a chill down his spine, a palpable sense of fear rose in his heart; the feeling was truly uncomfortable.
In that moment, he even began to fear Tangyu.
Tangyu steadily walked towards Tie Fei, and with each step, Tie Fei felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him, the oppressive feeling making him extremely uncomfortable.
A man’s rage can topple crowns, and Tangyu was indeed enraged today.
“Bang!”
Without any hesitation, Tangyu lifted his foot and fiercely kicked Tie Fei’s groin, instantly causing a sound as if something had shattered.
“Augh—!” Tie Fei immediately let out a scream more harrowing than a pig being slaughtered.
The bystanders, upon hearing that sound, all felt a visceral sensation; many couldn’t bear to look and shut their eyes.
Deng Jianguo was also taken aback.
At this moment, Tangyu had indeed become somewhat terrifying, quite a different person from before.
