Sprawled on the ground, he was completely unable to get up.
Pain shot through the old bachelor's ribs and neck whenever he moved, as if his bones were broken. He couldn't help but wail in agony.
"Ouch, ouch, it's killing , it's killing !"
But Liu Ergou ignored the old bachelor's wails, as he was more concerned about his sister-in-law, Xu Yulan.
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Liu Ergou looked at Xu Yulan with a worried expression, quickly checking her condition. His gaze was so thorough, sweeping over her from head to toe, that Xu Yulan couldn't help but blush.
By the ti Liu Ergou finished his inspection, Xu Yulan said quietly, her face still red, "I'm fine, Er Gou."
"He hadn't touched . You got here before he could do anything."
"I'm really fine, absolutely fine."
Seeing that his sister-in-law was indeed unhard, Liu Ergou finally heaved a sigh of relief. He then turned his gaze to the old bachelor lying on the ground, still wailing.
With a grim expression, Liu Ergou advanced on the old bachelor, radiating a murderous aura. He moved quickly, reaching the old man in just a few steps.
The old bachelor, who had been wailing continuously, imdiately fell silent when he saw the nacing Liu Ergou approach.
"What… what do you want to do!" the old bachelor asked, his voice trembling. "Let tell you, it's the middle of the day! If you dare lay a finger on … I…"
Before the old bachelor could finish, Liu Ergou grabbed his collar with one hand and forcefully hoisted him into the air.
This sight left the old bachelor dumbfounded. He knew Liu Ergou was strong, but he had never expected this. Liu Ergou lifted him as if it were nothing, his expression not showing the slightest strain!
Just then, Liu Ergou said coldly, "Old bastard, you're really looking for death, aren't you? How dare you try to touch my sister-in-law!"
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today so you'll understand there are so people in this life you can never afford to offend!"
With that, Liu Ergou raised his fist, ready to teach the old bachelor a painful lesson. Halfway through the motion, however, he seed to rember sothing and lowered his fist.
Seeing this, the old bachelor perked up and grew brazen.
"Hahaha, Liu Ergou, why did you lower your fist? I thought you were so tough!" he taunted. "Hit if you've got the guts! Go on, hit !"

Before the old bachelor could finish his taunt, Liu Ergou slapped him hard across the face.
The slap made him see stars and his ears rang, leaving him unable to speak for a mont. By the ti he recovered, he heard Liu Ergou remark, "In all my life, I've never t such a strange person, actually begging to be beaten! I doubt anyone would believe it if I told them!"
Hearing this, the old bachelor was so enraged he nearly fainted. It was the first ti he had ever t soone more shaless than himself. That was a threat! How could Liu Ergou have taken it seriously?
"You… Liu… Liu… Liu Ergou!" he stamred. "You dare hit ? Believe it or not, I'll extort you until you're bankrupt!"
"I…"
Halfway through his threat, Liu Ergou slapped him again. This ti, it took the old bachelor quite a while to recover.
Seeing the old bachelor had more or less co to his senses, Liu Ergou said coldly, "Hah, you really think I'm afraid of you? You think you can intimidate , old man? At worst, I'll just kill you right here. Who would ever know?"
As he spoke, a glint of murderous intent flashed in Liu Ergou's eyes. The old bachelor saw it crystal clear and imdiately clamped his mouth shut, not daring to utter another word, terrified that Liu Ergou would actually kill him on the spot.
Seeing the old bachelor had fallen silent, Liu Ergou nodded in satisfaction before throwing him back onto the ground.
"You're lucky my sister-in-law is unhard, old bastard. If anything at all had happened to her, I would never have let you off!"
"Now get lost! If I ever see your face again, I'll make you suffer!"
Hearing these words as if he had been granted a pardon, the old bachelor scrambled to crawl away, ignoring the stabbing pain in his body.
Watching him crawl, Liu Ergou suddenly called out again.
"Wait. Did I say you could leave?"
The old bachelor froze and looked back at Liu Ergou, trembling. Liu Ergou slowly walked over and crouched in front of him.
"Old bastard," he said. "You seem to have forgotten sothing. Take a look at this ground. Does it look familiar?"
The words hit the old bachelor, and he instantly understood.
He hurriedly said, "Brother Er Gou!"
Liu Ergou imdiately snapped, "Who's your brother? Do you think you're worthy of being my brother?"
The old bachelor quickly changed his tune. "Big Brother! You're my Big Brother! I understand what you an…"
Just as the old bachelor was about to continue, Liu Ergou unhurriedly pulled a phone from his pocket—the very phone the old man had dropped. He powered it on right in front of him, switched it to video mode, and aid it at him.
"Speak."
When the old bachelor saw his phone, his expression cycled from astonishnt to anger, and finally to bafflent. The speed of his facial transformations was so impressive, Liu Ergou felt an urge to applaud. If the old man ever took up Sichuan opera face-changing, his speed would be unmatched.
Seeing the old bachelor still frozen in place, Liu Ergou snorted coldly. "Hurry up and talk, old man!"
Prodded by Liu Ergou, the old bachelor snapped back to reality. "I am willing to return the land I occupied from Liu Ergou's family! This video is proof! My word is my bond!"
He then looked up at Liu Ergou, his expression fawning. "Big Brother, is this good enough?"
To his surprise, Liu Ergou simply shook his head.
"Not enough."
The words left the old bachelor stunned. He then heard Liu Ergou say slowly, "You've occupied that plot of my family's land for years, and today you dared to verbally harass my sister-in-law. Don't you think you owe so compensation?"
Hearing this, the old bachelor imdiately anded his statent. "I am willing to sign over an additional plot of my own land of the sa size to Liu Ergou! This video is my proof! If I go back on my word, may I suffer a horrible death!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou finally nodded in satisfaction and put the phone away.
