Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhou Hao, who had faceplanted in the pigpen, was helped up by his minions and dragged outside.
At this moment, his face was as red as a monkey’s *ss. In front of these pretty ladies, he had been greatly humiliated.
Now incensed by his humiliation, he didn’t care so much about the pain in his butt, but shouted to his cohort, “All of you, kill this kid.”
CLUNK! All four of the minions, who were holding sticks, now swooped down on Yang Guang.
“Watch out!” Xu Ling called out. And like Wu Xiaolian and Qi Yingxue, there was an anxious expression on her face.
One against four, Yang Guang was bound to be at a disadvantage.
The end result, however, was that the four guys rushed Yang Guang, but he was moving with great agility. In a move or two, he managed to avoid the clubs that were swung at him, and then dealt a couple of blows with his own fists. In only a few moments, he was able to beat the four guys into submission.
The yard was so quiet, and all three women were stupefied by what they had seen.
Facing the astonished looks from the women, Yang Guang was feeling pretty proud of himself. He dusted off his hands and said, “These guys are nothing but rice buckets. I could beat another seven or eight of them.”
“Uh, Yang Guang, are you okay?” Xu Ling stepped forward and asked him.
“I can’t say that I’m okay. Beating them hurt my fists.”
Yang Guang smiled gleefully as he turned to look at the guys groaning on the ground.
Xu Ling was speechless and rolled her eyes at him. “Stop that. What do they want?”
“I’ll ask them and find out.”
Yang Guang walked over in front of Zhou Hao. He saw that he was looking at him in shock, in a bit of a daze. So he asked him with a smile, “Do you still want to fight?”
“No, I’m not fighting anymore. I didn’t think you would be so young and so strong.” Zhou Hao had hurriedly changed his tone, as he dared not provoke Yang Guang anymore.
“I AM pretty handy, aren’t I? It’s just that I am usually humble about my skills.”
After Yang Guang patted himself on the back, he then asked, “Since we are not fighting anymore, then let us speak sensibly together, what do you say?”
After that, he looked back at the guys lying on the ground and smiled at Zhou Hao. “You have five people and five legs that didn’t need to be broken now. Don’t you think you should give me some kind of compensation for that as well?”
“This…”
Zhou Hao swallowed with some difficulty. He didn’t expect that whatever he’d said before would be used on him so quickly.
Seeing that he remained silent, Yang Guang frowned. “You don’t want to pay? You are in my house, and you trespassed without permission. I have the right to break your legs, do you understand?”
“I..I understand, but I don’t have any money,” Zhou Hao replied.
“That can’t be! The all-powerful Zhou Hao, the number one man in Hongqi Town, has no money?”
Yang Guang was immediately displeased when he heard that. He proceeded to reach into Zhou Hao’s trouser pockets.
But Xu Ling, who was following behind him, would have none of it. She said impatiently, “Hey, what do you think you are doing? Aren’t you going to ask him who was the one behind this preposterous attack?”
“Hee, hee, hee, I’m just getting some added benefits.”
Yang Guang laughed and took out a few scattered banknotes from Zhou Hao’s pockets. Altogether, the amount was less than $100.
But it was still money, and it all adds up in the end. So he pocketed the sum.
Xu Ling was completely speechless. She couldn’t help but shake her head at Yang Guang. She looked at Zhou Hao. “Since you are from Hongqi Town, why are you here at Yang Guang’s house making trouble? Who was behind this?”
“Tell us quickly or else you will suffer another beating,” Yang Guang added.
“It’s,,,it’s Mr. Yang.”
Zhou Hao was afraid of not complying. His four minions had been beaten up in the blink of an eye. He now knew how capable Yang Guang was.
When Yang Guang heard the name Mr. Yang, he asked blankly, “Who is that? I don’t know anyone called Mr. Yang.”
Zhou Hao was a little surprised. “He’s from the town. His name is Yang Ziming. Have you never heard of him?”
“I never heard of him. What does he do?” Yang Guang asked.
Zhou Hao didn’t know how to answer him.
“I’ve heard of Yang Ziming. He runs a nightclub in town and seems to have some connections,” Qi Yingxue walked over and said.
Yang Guang acknowledged her comment, but still scratched his head. “I don’t know this person. Why would he find someone to beat me up?”
“Does this have anything to do with Meng Li?” Xu Ling thought for a moment, then turned to Qi Yingxue. “Yingxue, is there any connection between Yang Ziming and the Meng family in the county?”
“I’m not so sure. But I’ve heard that he gets around in the county. He should know a lot of people with means,” Qi Yingxue replied, and then asked curiously, “Who is Meng Li? Someone from the Meng family in the county?”
“Mmm, he was my college classmate, who was beaten up by Yang Guang the other day,” Xu Ling said.
“Oh, so that’s what happened?”
Suddenly, Qi Yingxue turned to give Yang Guang another look. She wondered if this kid get into fights often? If so, this was not a good habit to have.
But Yang Guang didn’t notice anything. He was busy slapping Zhou Hao’s face. At the same time he was saying, “Zhou Hao, you are a character yourself. So how come you became someone else’s errand boy? Do you even care about your reputation?”
These little slaps were not hard enough to hurt Zhou Hao, but what Yang Guang said was very insulting. The color of Zhou Hao’s face vacillated from red to white, and then white to red again. Finally he was provoked into a blind rage. He struggled for a bit before he said, “Don’t get mad at me. If you are so great, go find Mr. Yang yourself. Anyway, he was the one asking me to take care of you.”
Yang Guang laughed heartily. “But you weren’t able to teach me a lesson, were you? And you got all beat up instead.”
“YOU!”
Zhou Hao was so mad that he was simply speechless. So he stopped talking.
“Fine, I don’t want to bother with you little minions anyway. Get up now and get out of my house.” Yang Guang stood up and said to them.
Zhou Hao took a deep breath, stood up, and patted his butt. While he was walking, he said, “Kid, this is not over yet. Mr. Yang will continue to look for you.”
“Okay! If he has the balls to come, I will break his legs,” Yang Guang said with a smile while folding his arms in front of him.
Zhou Hao was startled by his words. Then he pointed at him. “Fine, you are tough. Just wait and see!”
Yang Guang gave him a glare. “If you want to get out, then get out quickly! Not so much talking!”
Watching these guys leave with their tails between their legs, he turned around and laughed. “Well, just a few lazy punks, let’s continue eating.”
“Yang Guang, the one that’s called Yang Ziming is not some ordinary character. Don’t be too careless. Later, I will ask around to find out what’s going on,” Qi Yingxue said.
Xu Ling took out her phone at this time. “Let me called Meng Li and ask him if he was the one behind this farce.”
“Don’t bother. He won’t admit to it even if you call him.”
Yang Guang smiled and said to Qi Yingxue, “Thank you for your offer, Miss Qi. But don’t get involved with this mess. Yang Ziming is obviously not a nice person. I’m afraid it will not be good for you.”
“No worries. With my family’s background, he won’t dare to mess with me.” Qi Yingxue smiled.
“But still… I will figure this out myself.” Yang Guang smiled and said again, “Let’s get back to the house and finish our dinner. Otherwise the food will be cold.”
Everyone went inside, but their previous joyful mood was completely gone. Even though Yang Guang tried to cajole and joke, the three women still looked worried.
In the end, Yang Guang had no choice but to give a sigh. “All right, those guys destroyed a perfectly nice evening. I will have to catch up to them and beat them up again.”
“Don’t!”
When they heard this, Qi Yingxue and all the others stood up.
