Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Bullying an Honest Man _1
A loud crash—the phone of Sun Miaomiao was smashed to pieces.
Sun Miaomiao was extremely infuriated and wanted to confront Biao Zi for an explanation, but she was stopped by Sun Dajun.
"Enough Miaomiao, don’t provoke them anymore; we can’t afford to offend these local hooligans."
Sun Dajun was angry inside, but helpless as they were powerless and could only swallow their grievances.
"You stay in the kitchen, don’t come out! I’ll handle this."
Although Sun Miaomiao looked unconvinced, she didn’t know what to do.
After comforting Sun Miaomiao, Sun Dajun went over with a smile and said to Biao Zi, "Brother Biao, please don’t be angry. We can resolve this."
"Here is the money." free𝑤ebnovel.com
As he spoke, Sun Dajun took out his wallet and a wad of cash.
Sun Miaomiao suddenly became anxious; that money was meant for restocking their goods. If they handed it all over, how would they carry on with their business?
But seeing the look in her father’s eyes, Sun Miaomiao chose to remain silent and secretly wiped away her tears.
Sun Dajun whispered to Sun Miaomiao, "We can earn money back, but if we provoke these scoundrels, how can we live our future days?"
Biao Zi took the money, counted it casually, then shoved it into his pocket.
However, he didn’t plan to leave but approached Sun Miaomiao and said, "Now, just paying the rent isn’t enough. Tonight, you must join us for a drink and apologize; then we’ll let this matter slide."
"Otherwise, I’ll make sure you don’t have peace!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers outside could not bear to watch, starting to murmur amongst themselves.
"Isn’t Biao Zi being too much? Isn’t this bullying honest people?"
"Yes, what he means by ’accompanying them for a drink’ is clearly ’accompanying them to bed’!"
"He’s an animal, and nobody seems to be able to control them!"
The onlookers were indignant, just voicing their dissatisfaction, but none of them stepped forward to help.
Upon hearing this, the smile faded from Sun Dajun’s face as he said, "Brother Biao, I’ve given you the money. We are honest business people; please don’t make things difficult for us!"
"She is my only daughter. Can we make another arrangement? Or should I give you more money?"
Biao Zi snorted coldly and said, "Who the hell wants your dirty money? You think you can send me on my way with that?"
"I’ve said it, she must drink with me tonight, or else don’t think about keeping this shop open!"
"But..." Sun Dajun’s face was full of worry, unsure of what to do.
But he stood firmly in front of his daughter, resolute in not backing down.
"There’s a limit to bullying someone; who bullies someone to death like this?"
Just at that moment, Ye Ming, who was sitting in a corner, spoke up slowly, "Don’t you know that even a cornered rabbit will bite? Pushing honest people too far is not good for you."
Instantly, all eyes turned to Ye Ming.
Sun Miaomiao looked distressed, finally showing fear. This was their family affair; she didn’t want to drag Ye Ming into it.
But now, it was too late for her to stop it.
Biao Zi let out a teasing sound and focused his gaze on Ye Ming, saying, "I thought everyone had left, didn’t expect one remained."
"Kid, just mind your own business as if you don’t exist. How dare you speak up?"
Ye Ming said indifferently, "I just don’t like to see you bullying people."
Biao Zi laughed heartily, dismissing Ye Ming’s comment as if it were nothing, "I’ve bullied plenty of people, when did I need a nobody like you to tell me what to do!"
Seeing Ye Ming’s fearless demeanor, Biao Zi’s interest was piqued.
It had been too long since he had seen a spirited young man like this, and he decided to have a good time toying with Ye Ming.
While they talked, Ye Ming was already surrounded by people.
Each of these men was burly and skilled in brawling.
Just the sight of them would make an ordinary person’s legs turn to jelly.
But Ye Ming completely ignored them, continuing to eat his skewer and said, "Well, today I’ll give you some pointers."
Biao Zi’s face darkened, and he cursed with a fierce look, "Damn it, you dare to be so arrogant in front of me, thinking I’m a sick cat when I don’t show my might?"
"Get him! Let him see just how tough Biao Zi is!"
Sun Miaomiao’s heart sank, knowing the situation was beyond repair, and thought about stepping in to stop it.
She knew Ye Ming had some connections and was somewhat skilled, but now he was up against Biao Zi, these people lived by brawling, professional fighters.
Fearing for Ye Ming’s safety, Sun Miaomiao quickly stood up, stepped in front of Ye Ming, and said resolutely, "Isn’t it just that you want me to accompany you for drinks? I’ll go, but you’re not to touch my friend!"
Sun Miaomiao’s act surprised not only Sun Dajun but also left Biao Zi stunned, raising a wave of jealousy in his heart.
He couldn’t understand what charm Ye Ming had that made Sun Miaomiao stand up for him on her own.
Sun Dajun also started to doubt this friend of his daughter. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Biao Zi ignored Sun Miaomiao and questioned Ye Ming, "You brat, were you just planning to act tough and then hide behind a woman, content with just talking big?"
"Of course not!" Ye Ming took Sun Miaomiao’s hand, pulled her to his side, and said, "What I mean is, with me here, you won’t have the chance to bully this father and daughter!"
Biao Zi became furious and said viciously, "That’s more like it, act like a man."
"Guys, teach him a lesson first!"
At his command, the lackeys who had followed Biao Zi charged at Ye Ming.
The crowd outside the door all sighed, praying for Ye Ming.
In their eyes, Ye Ming was in grave danger, messing with Biao Zi and his gang meant no good end.
They still remembered a reckless youth who troubled Biao Zi a few years back and was never seen again.
Ye Ming was probably headed for the same fate.
The next second, a loud noise erupted from the small barbecue restaurant.
A shockingly unbelievable event occurred.
There stood Ye Ming, unharmed, while a burly man was sent flying through the air, crashing heavily onto the ground outside.
No one even saw how Ye Ming had made his move.
Ye Ming didn’t have to exert full strength to deal with these thugs; a simple gesture was all it took to outmatch them.
Then, he coolly said, "All right, next!"
Frowning, Biao Zi said angrily, "Kid, you’ve got some skills, but you’re still going to die!"
"Attack all together, kill him!"
