Suddenly hearing the long-lost na "Xiang Lanxin," Luo Xiu couldn't help but find it amusing. It really had been a long ti since he had last seen the little spitfire.
While Luo Xiu was lost in thought, Xia Chan gently tugged at the corner of his shirt, her expression pitiful. "Brother Luo… maybe we should just leave."
Seeing her woeful look, Luo Xiu's heart softened. "Don't worry, it's fine," he said gently. "We've ordered so much delicious food. Wouldn't leaving now be a huge waste?"
Xia Chan suddenly wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest. "But you could be in danger, Brother Luo! There are bad people who will bully you!"
As he felt her soft body in his arms and her fragrance filled his nose, Luo Xiu's body stiffened for a mont. A sense of guilt surged through his heart. Although this girl had the mind of a seven- or eight-year-old and was very clingy after losing her mory, her devilishly enticing figure and face were truly hard to resist. This was especially true now, with the power of the Sky Yin Pill still wreaking havoc inside him.
Forget it… I'll just think of her as my little sister. Yes, my little sister! Luo Xiu, oh, Luo Xiu, you must not have any improper thoughts!
Luo Xiu admonished himself internally before gently taking Xia Chan's shoulders and pushing her away. "Be good, Xiaochan. No one can bully us."
Then, Luo Xiu acted as if Bald Tiger and his gang didn't exist, focusing on enjoying his barbecue.
It wasn't long before the roar of an engine sounded from outside the restaurant. Bald Tiger hurried out to greet the newcors. "Big Sis, you're here! That little bastard is inside! He's getting all cozy with his little girlfriend right now!"
Xiang Lanxin wore a black tank top and a pair of super-short hot pants. Her legs and body were covered in colorful tattoos—and one was even of the goddess Nüwa Niangniang. Tattoos aside, her figure was undeniably hot. With a cigarette dangling from her lips, she swaggered into the barbecue restaurant with a nacing air, a large group of fierce-looking underlings trailing behind her.
However, when she followed Bald Tiger inside and caught sight of Luo Xiu, she froze. Because she had t him long ago, his Mist Barrier Art had no effect on her, and she recognized him at a glance.
"Big Sis, that's the little bastard!" Bald Tiger pointed angrily at Luo Xiu, his face twisted into a cruel grin.
The rest of the underlings, however, ignored Luo Xiu completely. Their gazes were fixed on Xia Chan, lecherous smiles spreading across their faces.
"Bald Tiger, you've got a good eye!"
"This chick is really sothing, not a bit inferior to the top five beauties of Sea City. Looks like we're in for a treat tonight, boys."
"Hahahaha…"
At this mont, Xiang Lanxin was trembling, too nervous to speak. Luo Xiu had left a deep shadow on her heart. But she didn't shrink back. The her of now was different from the her of the past. She now had powerful backing.
She suppressed the fear in her heart, constantly telling herself that the only way to overco a shadow was to face it head-on.
She strode forward, plopped down into a chair, and arrogantly slung a leg onto the table. "I didn't expect it to be you again. Seems we're quite fated."
Luo Xiu glanced at her and gave a faint smile. "Indeed, we are."
Xiang Lanxin's gaze turned cold. "Let's settle all our old scores tonight. If you have any guts, you better not run!"
With that, she stood up, walked out of the barbecue restaurant, and pulled out her phone.
Bald Tiger followed closely behind, confused. "Big Sis, what are you…?"
Xiang Lanxin took a deep breath, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and said in a low voice, "The n we have here aren't enough to handle him. I need to call my grandpa and Grandpa Tao, and we have to get Brother Dong over here."
Hearing this, Bald Tiger's eyes widened in disbelief. "Who the hell is this kid? We need to call Brother Dong?" he stamred. "Besides, Brother Dong is the Dragon Head of two districts now… can we really get him to co?"
A smug smile touched Xiang Lanxin's lips, a hint of pride in her eyes. "Others might not be able to summon Brother Dong, but I can. If I'm getting bullied, he'll definitely be worried."
Bald Tiger was taken aback, then suddenly recalled a certain rumor. It was said that when Brother Dong first arrived in Sea City from the provincial capital, he was a cradle-robber who had hooked up with Xiang Lanxin. Afterward, many people had seen him take her to various functions, and they had even been spotted going to a hotel together.
He had thought it was just a baseless rumor. But judging by Xiang Lanxin's words, could it be true that she and Brother Dong were actually an item?
「Ti trickled by.」
Luo Xiu finished his barbecue, packed another portion for Ye Ningxue, and then walked out after settling the bill. Xia Chan followed quietly behind him, clutching the hem of his clothes, clearly frightened.
The mont they stepped outside, they were surrounded by a large crowd. The barbecue restaurant owner, already scared witless, imdiately pulled down the roller shutter. He wasn't about to risk getting involved and didn't care about the loss of business.
At so point, a sea of people had gathered at the entrance.
Luo Xiu's eyes imdiately found Xiang Laoer and Tao Laosi in the crowd.
"Director Luo… no, I should call you Martial Champion now. Did our distinguished Martial Champion enjoy his al?" Xiang Laoer said, approaching Luo Xiu with a smirk.
Hearing his words, Bald Tiger and his n widened their eyes in shock. They rubbed them, trying to get a clear look at Luo Xiu, but found they couldn't see his face distinctly.
Luo Xiu glanced at the crowd and smiled. "Quite enjoyable."
Just then, Tao Laosi stepped forward. "You just beat up our n. Don't you think you owe us an explanation?" he said coldly.
Luo Xiu asked, "What kind of explanation do you want?"
"Just because you're the Martial Champion, you think you can beat people up whenever you like?" Tao Laosi retorted.
SLAP!
Luo Xiu lashed out, slapping him across the face. "So what if I hit you?"
Tao Laosi clutched his face, his eyes red as he glared at Luo Xiu. The slap wasn't heavy, but the insult was imnse. Suddenly, he let out a strange, eerie laugh.
"You've got guts. Real guts! Luo Xiu, I might have feared you before, but now… you've provoked us, and death is your only way out!"
Luo Xiu looked at him, puzzled, wondering where he got the gall to be so arrogant.
In fact, Xiang Laoer and Tao Laosi had beco quite arrogant in Sea City lately. This was because Yue Tianyang, from the provincial capital, had sent a major figure down. That person was none other than Brother Dong.
Since Brother Dong's arrival, both of them had stepped back. They were no longer Dragon Heads and were rely working for him. However, it was precisely because they had a ruthless character like Brother Dong backing them that they dared to be so brazen. Only after Brother Dong ca to Sea City and took over the businesses in the Western and South Districts did Xiang Laoer and Tao Laosi truly understand what a tough character was.
Furthermore, when Yue Tianyang transferred Brother Dong to Sea City, he brought quite a few martial artist masters with him. On top of that, Brother Dong had *that* kind of relationship with Xiang Laoer's granddaughter. And this was the source of Xiang Laoer's confidence. Even facing Luo Xiu, who had just won the title of Martial Champion, he was completely unafraid.
Xiang Laoer looked at Luo Xiu with pity, as if already picturing his fate that night. "Luo Xiu, do you have any idea who our boss is now? If you get on your knees and apologize, I might consider giving you a quick death."
"Dammit! Who the hell is raising a ruckus on my territory at this hour?!" a furious roar suddenly ca from the back of the crowd. It was Brother Dong.
Xiang Laoer and Tao Laosi jolted and quickly turned to greet him. "Boss, you're here!"
Brother Dong had a brutish, fleshy face and eyes full of malice. He was naturally imposing, even when not angry. He looked at them coldly. "Who the hell is it?"
Tao Laosi spun around and pointed at Luo Xiu. "It's that little bastard!" he snarled through gritted teeth.
At that mont, Xiang Lanxin ran up and clung to Brother Dong's arm, putting on a pitiful act. "Brother Dong," she cooed, "that bastard has bullied several tis now. You have to get justice for tonight."
Brother Dong grinned and pinched her bottom a few tis. "Soone dared to bully my little darling? I'd like to see who has such massive guts."
With that, he strode forward.
Xiang Laoer and Tao Laosi exchanged a smile. Tao Laosi whispered, "Given how much Brother Dong dotes on Lanlan, I bet Luo Xiu is in for a world of hurt tonight."
Xiang Laoer just smiled faintly without saying a word.
But just as the two forr Dragon Heads were picturing Luo Xiu's miserable fate, Brother Dong, who had been striding forward, froze. He shuddered from head to toe and then suddenly dropped to his knees.
The two were shocked and hurried after him.
What is happening?!
