It’s often said, the skill of the expert is immediately known the moment they make a move!
The moment Shen MO appeared at the door, his tall and straight figure, like a pine tree, caught everyone’s attention.
Wearing a close-fitting, pure black T-shirt, deep camouflage, special training trousers, and a pair of black army boots firmly planted on the floor, he exuded a silent, intimidating aura.
Hui’s two henchmen tried to stop him, but there was no fear displayed on Shen Mo’s face. He punched, grappled, chokeheld; his movements were swift and decisive. The goons were left only capable of crying out in agony!
Tan Xiao’s eyes widened in surprise, temporarily forgetting his humiliation. He muttered, “My God, he’s really a master…”
Seeing the grip on Tan Xiao’s face relax, the guy stepping on him was next tossed aside by Shen MO, swatted away like a broken kite!
Literally swatted away.
Although Hui was skinny, he still weighed over a hundred and thirty to forty pounds. Can you imagine the strength needed to toss someone like that?
Tan Xiao quickly jumped to his feet, placing himself protectively in front of Bai Youwei, shouting, “Had enough now, haven’t you? Care to try again?” His voice rang out defiantly. If you ignored the shoe prints on his face, this posturing was actually rather intimidating.
The three thugs helped each other up, each looking more humiliated than the last, realizing they had met their match.
Gritting his teeth, Hui shot a look at Shen MO and Tan Xiao and scoffed, “He’s nothing more than a cripple, not even a woman by count, and you’re protecting him like treasure? If you like him so much, you can have him!”
Bai Youwei’s face became paler, a shadow flitting across her eyes.
“Try saying that again?!” Tan Xiao threatened, swinging his fist.
A look of panic crossed Hui’s face. Gritting his teeth, he limped out of the supermarket with his companions.
Once the men were gone, Tan Xiao sidled up to Shen MO, “Bro! You’re amazing! Why did you have to wait until the end to step in?”
Throwing his arm over Shen Mo’s shoulder with a mischievous smile, “Didn’t you just want to make a dramatic entrance at the last minute? Don’t worry, I get it! ”
Shen MO pushed his hand away, walked over to Bai Youwei, picked her up, and turned to leave.
“Cool-” Tan Xiao whistled, quickly following and grabbing Shen Mo’s jacket left behind at the door, yelling as he ran, “Hey, what’s your name? I’m Tan Xiao, what about you?…”
Chasing them to the SUV, he gave Shen MO his jacket, “This is yours, right? I saw you left it at the door. Why are you wearing a jacket in this heat? Oh… you wanted to get it for your sister in case she gets cold at night, right?” He kept talking, but no one paid him any attention.
Shen MO remained aloof and indifferent, while Bai Youwei stayed silent, wrapped in her own thoughts.
Tan Xiao scratched his nose, finding this pair of siblings strange. Feeling a little disheartened, his spirits lifted when Shen MO accepted his jacket with a quiet “thank you”.
Buoyed by the gesture, Tan Xiao grinned, “No need to thank me! We, the brothers in the rivers and lakes, stand up for each other when we see injustice! Today I help you, another day you might help me. It’s about loyalty! You can count on me whenever you need help, I won’t turn you down!”
He just kept talking nonstop.
In the car, Bai Youwei moved her lips slightly, muttering: “Nagging.” Shen MO merely glanced at her.
Unaware of the situation, Tan Xiao continued to engage Shen MO enthusiastically: “…If you really want to thank me, I won’t refuse your favor.
Could you, perhaps, teach me a few moves?”
He began to mime punching and kicking in the air.
“Like your moves earlier, they were so powerful! How did you do that?… Ahoo! Aha!… Do you think my postures are correct?” Shen MO did not feel like talking..
