"Liu Ergou, get the hell out of here! This has nothing to do with you today!" Er Lu shouted. "I'm in a good mood, so I don't want to argue. Scram! If you don't, don't bla for getting rough!"
However, after hearing Er Lu's threat, Liu Ergou showed no intention of leaving and continued to stand in front of Xiao Rou.
"Heh, getting rough, are you? I'd like to see just how rough you can be!" Liu Ergou said as he rolled his shoulders, preparing for a fight. "Er Lu, looks like you're itching for a beating. Have you forgotten how I thrashed you before? Perfect. I'll loosen you up today and give you a little reminder!" This content belongs to novel※fire
With that, Liu Ergou took a step forward.
That single step scared Er Lu so much that he imdiately stumbled backward, stepping right on soone's foot. It was only then that Er Lu ca to his senses. So what if Liu Ergou was a good fighter? He had plenty of n on his side. He refused to believe Liu Ergou could beat all of them.
With that thought, Er Lu's fear vanished. "Liu Ergou, I've got a whole crew here! I dare you to lay a finger on ! One punch from each of us would be more than you could handle! I'm giving you one last chance. Get out of the way and let Xiao Rou co with . Otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen next!"
Watching Er Lu's nacing display, Liu Ergou didn't budge an inch. "What, you think you're in the right, trying to abduct soone in broad daylight? Er Lu, you'd better get lost. I don't want to deal with you!"
Hearing this, Er Lu understood that Liu Ergou was determined not to move. There was nothing more to say; only a fight could settle this. Er Lu stopped wasting words, took a step back, and waved his hand at his n, signaling them to attack without further delay.
His n got the ssage imdiately. They cracked their knuckles and advanced on Liu Ergou.
Seeing this unfold, Xiao Rou, who was hiding behind Liu Ergou, instinctively whispered, "Er Gou, there are so many of them! We should call the police! Let them handle this!"
Without turning his head, Liu Ergou replied, "It's just a few people. Did you already forget what happened last ti when I brought you ho?"
Reminded by Liu Ergou, Xiao Rou imdiately recalled the incident from her last trip ho. She fell silent, clearly rembering Liu Ergou's astonishing fighting prowess.
anwhile, Liu Ergou was already braced for action. As the n charged at him, he moved without hesitation, throwing a punch at the one in the lead. The blow sent the man collapsing to the ground, unconscious.
The others saw this and assud it was just a lucky punch. Paying it no mind, they continued their rush toward Liu Ergou.
However, they quickly realized their mistake.
One by one, the charging n were t with Liu Ergou's fists and dropped to the ground. He took them all down in a flurry of blows that lasted less than a minute. Soon, the only ones left standing were Liu Ergou, Xiao Rou, and Er Lu.
Er Lu stared at the scene, completely stunned. He knew Liu Ergou was a good fighter, but he never imagined he was *this* good. His five or six guys were all seasoned brawlers. It was no exaggeration to say that each of them was a tough who could take on three n at once. Yet Liu Ergou had floored them all with a punch apiece, leaving them with no chance to resist. It was like watching a college student beat up grade schoolers.
Terrified, Er Lu scrambled back several steps and pointed a shaky finger at Liu Ergou. "Liu... Liu Ergou! I'm warning you, this is a society of law! You can't just act recklessly! If you dare touch , I'll call the police!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but snort. "Pfft, hahaha! Did I hear you right? You're going to call the police?" he laughed. "Use your brain. You're the one trying to abduct soone in broad daylight. If anyone's getting arrested, it's you. I'm just a Good Samaritan here!"
As Liu Ergou said this, sothing seed to click for Er Lu. He shot back, "What nonsense are you spouting, Liu Ergou? When did I abduct anyone! I'll have you know, Xiao Rou is my lawfully betrothed wife! I paid hundreds of thousands for her! What's wrong with taking her ho? Absolutely nothing! Liu Ergou, you're the one ddling in our affairs as a couple. It's you they should arrest!"
Those words made Liu Ergou's heart sink. What's going on today? Er Lu's brain is actually working this fast for a change. This is bizarre. This kid used to be so dim-witted he couldn't think his way out of a paper bag.
Of course, even if Er Lu had gotten smarter, Liu Ergou wasn't the least bit flustered.
Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Rou poked her head out from behind him. "Er Lu, stop spouting nonsense! When was I ever your wife? My mom made that deal, not . If you're so bold, why don't you marry my mom! I don't want to marry you, and my family already said we'll pay you back! Besides, forced marriages are illegal now!"
Her words left Er Lu montarily speechless, but his loss for words was only temporary. He quickly found his retort. "Pay back? Easy to say, but where's the money? Xiao Rou, don't forget, I made an agreent with Zhang Cuifen. Once I paid, you were supposed to be mine after half a month! I..."
Hearing this, Liu Ergou imdiately seized on the loophole. "Er Lu, you said it yourself. Xiao Rou only has to marry you if she can't pay the money back after half a month. Now you tell , how many days are left until that deadline?"
Caught off guard, Er Lu blurted out, "Three days!"
The mont the words left his mouth, he realized he'd made a mistake.
Sure enough, Liu Ergou pressed his advantage. "There are still three days left! But you're already here trying to drag her away by force, and you still claim you're not breaking the law?"
Challenged like this, Er Lu grew flustered and scrambled for an excuse. "I... Can't I co see my future wife a little early? What business is it of yours, Liu Ergou! A dog catching mice—mind your own damn business!"
After that outburst, Er Lu didn't dare say more. He turned to his n wailing on the ground and yelled, "Alright, stop lying there and embarrassing yourselves! A whole group of you couldn't even beat one guy!"
