53: Chapter 049 Scare 53: Chapter 049 Scare “You bunch of bullies, here to cause trouble again!” At that moment, Li Zhaojun stepped in front of those six thugs, chest out, angrily pointing at them as she cursed. “Leave immediately, or I’ll call the police!” With that, she quickly pulled out a smartphone, poised to make an emergency call. “Ha ha, what a feisty little girl. Big brother likes!” The leading thug, called Brother Fei, chuckled mockingly with the demeanor of a classic hoodlum, stepping forward to try and touch Zhao Jun’s fair little chin. Li Zhaojun screamed in fear and retreated several steps, her face losing all color. The shop owner stepped forward, putting his daughter behind him. Brother Fei stood firm, arrogantly saying, “Go ahead, call the cops. Last time you did, we were totally fine. If you dare to call them again, we’ll smash your shop to bits!” Brother Fei’s five thug comrades shouted, “Brother Fei, let’s smash the shop first!” “Right, right, smash the shop first!” “Humph, humph, we’re the only ones who get to threaten people—no one dares threaten us! They’re really asking for it!” They were about to wreck the shop. The shop owner hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, pleading, “Don’t smash it—without the shop, where would I find the money to pay your protection fees? Please… don’t smash it…” In the midst of trying to stop them, the shop owner was kicked away by one of the thugs and fell to the ground. Li Zhaojun cried out, “Dad,” and immediately rushed over to help up the shop owner. At that moment, Brother Fei called out, “Brothers, don’t smash it yet.” The five thugs then stopped, looking sullen and not yet over their anger. Brother Fei said with satisfaction, “Old Li, dare you call the police again?” “I wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare,” the shop owner replied in fear. “And you, pretty little thing?” Brother Fei turned to Li Zhaojun with a smile. Li Zhaojun snorted and defiantly said, “If you dare smash the shop, I will definitely call the police. If the police don’t arrest you, I’ll post it online! I don’t believe you’re truly above the law!” “Ha ha ha,” Brother Fei laughed out loud, his five cronies joining in the wild laughter. After a good while, Brother Fei, clutching his stomach, said, “I’m dying of laughter, laughing so hard it hurts. Little beauty, you’re so cute. Big brother has taken a liking to you. If you become my girl, not only will I not collect protection money from you anymore, but I’ll also send folks to eat at your place every day.” “In your dreams!” Li Zhaojun screamed, both embarrassed and furious, “Look in the mirror, why don’t you? A toad lusting after swan meat!” “Brother Fei, she called you a toad!” shouted the thug with the green snake tattoo on his arm. The other thugs cursed in retaliation, “Asking for death, daring to call our boss a toad! Let’s take turns with this little girl first, see if her swan meat is any good, or just garbage!” Brother Fei was clearly angered too, snorting furiously, “Today I’m going to have a taste of this swan meat!” After speaking, he turned to the shop owner and demanded, “Old Li, what about the 100,000 you owe us in protection fees?!” “When did I ever owe you 100,000 in protection fees?” the shop owner asked in shock and fear, “I only owe you 4,500 in protection fees.” “Humph, do you think you don’t have to pay interest on the money you owe me? Do you take me for a charity?” Brother Fei spoke viciously, “My interest rates are very high, ten percent, compounded. You owe me at least 30,000 in protection fees. Plus, last time your daughter dared to call the cops, making us spend a night in jail. Between the six of us, the compensation for emotional distress and loss of earnings comes to at least 60,000 more! If it’s not 100,000, could it be 90,000 you owe me?” “You’re extorting me!” Li Zhaojun exclaimed. Brother Fei ignored Li Zhaojun and continued to the shop owner, “I want the money now, hand it over!” With that, he reached out his hand and shook it, acting like a rapacious landlord collecting debts. “I, I don’t have 100,000,” the shop owner said fearfully. “Humph, I know you don’t. So, use your daughter as collateral!” Brother Fei laughed obscenely, “Brothers, tie up Old Li’s daughter. Tonight I’ll have my fun. After I’ve had my way, you all can have a go too!” The five thugs behind immediately called out excitedly, ready to grab Li Zhaojun. At this point, Ye Fan, who had calmly finished his noodles, finally stood up, walked to the center, and blocked the five thugs. “Enough, it’s okay to scare someone, but keep your hands to yourselves. Do you think this is a Hong Kong triad movie?” Ye Fan said indifferently. “Watching too many triad movies made you brain-dead, didn’t it?” “Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business!” the blonde thug threatened arrogantly, pointing at Ye Fan’s nose. Ye Fan smirked coldly, “I’m meddling.” After speaking, he suddenly made a move, clamping down on the blonde thug’s hand that was pointing at his nose, then squeezing slightly. “Crack~” A sound of breaking bones echoed, and the blonde thug screamed in pain. Rather than stopping, Ye Fan twisted the blonde thug’s hand even further. The blonde thug screamed again as his wrist was twisted out of its socket. However, his screams came to an abrupt end as he was kicked away by Ye Fan, rolling on the ground, groaning in pain and powerless. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The whole process was swift, nobody expected Ye Fan to act as soon as he said he would, not at all intimidated by the group’s numbers. Fei Ge finally reacted, his face turning red as he yelled out, “Brothers, attack, let’s take him down together!” Roaring, Fei Ge and the remaining four thugs pounced towards Ye Fan. Ye Fan sneered and met them head-on. Bang bang bang bang… Ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh… Before Li Zhaojun could fully process what was happening, she saw the five ruffians flying away, rolling on the ground, while Ye Fan stood calmly in the center, as if he had never thrown a punch. “Wow, so amazing!” the girl exclaimed with wide eyes, looking at Ye Fan’s tall figure and shouting excitedly. Fei Ge and the others didn’t care about their pain and got up. “Let’s go!” Fei Ge shouted. Thus, the six of them scrambled to flee. Then, a blurry shadow flashed by; Ye Fan had already intercepted them at the door, causing the six thugs to hastily retreat in fear. “You, what else do you want?” Fei Ge said, trying to sound fierce but inwardly panicked, “Don’t think we can’t beat you, if it comes down to it, the six of us can crush you!” Ye Fan replied indifferently, “I don’t want anything else. But you’ve smashed up quite a few things here, shouldn’t there be compensation?” Immediately, Fei Ge turned and demanded fiercely from the shop owner, “Old Li, how much money should we pay for the stuff we broke?” “No need to pay, no need to pay,” the shop owner called out fearfully, waving his hands. Fei Ge turned triumphantly to Ye Fan, “Did you hear that? He said there’s no need for compensation.” “But I want you to compensate,” Ye Fan, a bit disappointed by the shop owner’s timidity, insisted now that he had spoken up, “Take out all the money you have. If you’re short a single penny, I’ll break your dog legs!” Fei Ge’s face twitched, realizing that with their number, they still couldn’t win another fight, and that this meddler was very willing to go through with his threats; after all, he had effortlessly crushed Yellow Hair’s hand. “So I will compensate,” he said. With that, he laid out his money on the table, and the other five thugs, reluctant and unwilling, also took out their money and placed it on the table. Ye Fan glanced at the money on the table, estimating that it was several thousand, surely enough to compensate for the shop’s damages. “You can step aside now, right?” Fei Ge said. Ye Fan calmly responded, “Not yet.” Fei Ge’s face changed as he cursed, “You’re not keeping your word!” Ye Fan said coolly, “Did I ever say you could leave after compensating? I was dealing with the shopkeeper’s issue just now, now it’s my turn.”
