Chapter 33: 033 The so-called minor punishnt and major warning swept through half of Pingjiang City (2nd watch) Chapter 33: 033 The so-called minor punishnt and major warning swept through half of Pingjiang City (2nd watch) Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation “Tang Wan, you damn…” Young Master He had one finger twisted back, his face already contorted with pain.
The expletive hadn’t even left his mouth when Tang Wan applied a little more pressure, and his voice changed with the pain.
“Sis—” Tang Mo stood to the side, her small face pale and bloodless.
Everyone in the private room was stunned by the sudden turn of events, frozen in shock.
Yet Young Master He was already boiling with rage; he was used to doing as he pleased in Pingjiang City, and everyone in the room was usually respectful to him. What Tang Wan did today wasn’t just a matter of losing face, it was like grinding his face into the ground.
Tang Wan knew that if she kept twisting, his finger would probably break, so she let go.
Freed from restraint, Young Master He turned and shouted hysterically at Tang Wan, “I invited you for a drink, that was giving you face, don’t you dare turn it down.”
“If you can walk out of this bar tonight, I’ll take your last na—”
Just as he spoke the last word, the man with sunglasses at Tang Wan’s side suddenly lifted his foot and kicked Young Master He in the chest with great force.
His whole body practically dragged across the floor, flying backward into a coffee table and overturning half a table of drinks.
Young Master He, who had been yelling arrogantly, was now just wailing in pain.
“Do you damn know who I am?”
The man didn’t say a word, just strode over and kicked again.
He carried an air of ferocity, all cold and sternness.
He didn’t know who this person was, only that…
He could kick him to the point of calling him grandpa!
There were quite a few n in the private room, so even burly, but none dared step forward to intervene. When it ca down to it, they were all show without substance, full of bluster but craven when facing actual trouble.
“Miss Tang, are you alright?” A man with foxy eyes ca jogging in.
“I’m fine, but…” Tang Wan felt if this went on, there might be casualties, and wanted him to intervene.
The man with foxy eyes charged forward as well, “Stop hitting him!”
This Young Master He was a real scoundrel. If he were beaten too badly, even if he didn’t hold a grudge, his family surely would.
Tang Wan thought the foxy-eyed man was going to stop the fight and breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as the man with sunglasses paused, Young Master He took the chance to catch his breath and, with the help of his companions, got up, pointing at them. “What are you standing there for, where are the people outside? Are they all dead? Get in here!”
Before he finished speaking, the foxy-eyed man stepped forward and delivered two more kicks, making him howl in pain.
The first punch credit was sneakily claid by soone else; of course, he had to seize the opportunity to upstage him.
Tang Wan pursed her lips, he…
Wasn’t here to stop the fight?
There were indeed many people in the private room, and after exchanging glances, they decided to swarm them together. With enough numbers, why fear three people?
“Dammit, no one dares act up on our turf—” One of them raised a bottle, ready to charge in.
Just then, the half-open door of the private room was suddenly kicked open.
With a thud—a muffled sound, a group of police officers stord in.
“Police, everyone stop!”
A dozen police officers rushed in, startling the one holding the bottle.
“Officers, you finally ca. It’s them!” The foxy-eyed man imdiately stopped and stood there, all obedient and harmless.
“In broad daylight, holding people against their will, it’s the 21st century, and still this kind of robbery!”
“Now is the ti to crack down on cri and evil. Kidnapping young girls, it’s just like a bandit.”
The lead officer squinted, examining the beaten and bruised man on the floor, “Young Master He?”
Pingjiang City’s notorious troublemaker, in and out of the station often, the police naturally recognized him.
“Officer, so late, not allowing the young lady to go ho, even insisting her sister co to pick her up, you know exactly what their intentions are. Truly despicable…” The foxy-eyed man spoke with righteous indignation.
“Look, they even hired so many bodyguards and thugs, how audacious.”
“You must stand up for us little common folks.”
…
The foxy-eyed man looked infinitely more aggrieved than Dou E of ancient lore.
Tang Wan clearly rembered that earlier, he had been hitting harder than the sunglasses man, going at it fiercer.
Everyone: “…”
Damn, do you have no sha!
They were the ones who got beaten, and yet he called them the evil force.
“Officer, it’s not as he says—” Soone stepped forward.
“Everyone freeze!” The police started to secure the scene.
These rich playboys out for a night of fun, aside from bringing girls, they naturally wouldn’t be without party favors, so after checking the alcohol, the police started searching.
This group was initially reluctant, but when the sunglasses man said, “Obstructing police work can lead to criminal charges,” they were too frightened to move. Even when the police found so illegal items on them, they just looked at the private room, headache apparent.
“Everyone, hands on your heads, squat against the wall.”
He then made a call for backup, saying this side needed more people.

Outside the bar, police cars lined the road, their lights flashing.
“Sir, the place is truly a ss.”
Jiang Jinsang squinted silently. These people loved to play, and if probed deeply, there would always be sothing dirty to find.
Soon, the people inside started being brought out, heads hanging dejectedly where they would normally swagger.
On Tang Wan’s side, she only did so cooperation for a simple police investigation, but Tang Mo was directly taken away by the police.
“Sis—” Tang Mo finally panicked.
But Tang Wan was busy thanking the police, not sparing her even a glance.
The police arriving so promptly, she didn’t need to think hard to know who orchestrated it.
His so-called personal intervention was truly without bloodshed.
News of the arrest of these people soon reached their respective families.
As each family began to devise counterasures, sohow the word leaked out, and soon the whole incident spread like wildfire throughout Pingjiang City.
Countless people had been bullied by this group, already a local evil force. Hearing that illegal items were also found, the news exploded, impossible to contain.
After the police left, Tang Wan was still regaining her senses when she heard a familiar voice behind her, “Is it over?”
She turned her head slightly, “Fifth Master, how did you get in?” The bar was still pretty chaotic at the mont.
The lights of the bar were on full, yet still a dim haze lingered, casting a shadow over his face, evoking a strange allure.
He approached her a bit, “You hadn’t co out yet, so I was worried and ca to check on you.”
“I’m doing well, nothing happened.”
“Then let’s head ho.”
The bar was bustling, with guests and staff moving back and forth. Tang Wan originally followed behind him, but Jiang Jinsang suddenly slowed his pace and, walking alongside her, casually held her hand.
His hand was warm, a heat that seeped into her heart.
“Walk slowly, be careful.”
Actually, with Jiang Family people guarding around, no one could co close to her at all.
Tang Wan looked down at their joined hands, and as she tried to pull away, he just held her tighter.
On the way back, Tang Wan asked, “Wasn’t it a bit too much tonight?”
He just blandly replied, “A small punishnt as a big warning.”
“With these people caught, I fear…” Tang Wan worried about potential retaliation from them.
“The police arrested them; what’s it got to do with ? If they’re not afraid of humiliation, they can go ahead and make a fuss.”
These families held so standing locally, but news had already spread throughout Pingjiang. Having broken the law, none would dare to bail their kids out, only try discreetly to squash the news.
Faces got slapped until swollen, even if it hurt like hell, they could only nurse it themselves.
Jiang Jinsang wasn’t sure who exactly was eyeing Tang Wan tonight, so the best way was to have them all arrested.
But Pingjiang City wasn’t large, its web of relationships complexly intertwined. Though only a dozen people were caught, many more were involved beneath the surface.
His so-called small punishnt as a big warning…
Ended up shaking half of Pingjiang City to its core.

The news quickly reached Beijing. Soone was currently reading a bedti story to his son.
Upon receiving the ssage, he prepared to go out to make a call to inquire about the situation.
“Dad, the story isn’t finished yet. What happened to the Little rmaid in the end? Did she turn into foam?”
“She took the dagger, stabbed the Prince, and turned back into a rmaid returning to the sea.”
“…”
