Last time, Wu Fa had been forced to cancel his banquet at Bai Zhi’s demand, utterly humiliating him.
To make matters worse, his parents had berated him for being a disappointment and cut off his allowance for several months.
So now, seeing Zheng Yan have the audacity to mock him, he was absolutely furious.
“Zheng Yan, you think someone’s still going to have your back today?
Even if I beat you to death and toss your body in the sea to feed the fish, no one would say a damn thing.”
With that, Wu Fa shot a look at the two henchmen with him.
These two henchmen were trained fighters; one of them was even a multiple-time boxing champion.
They lived well under Wu Fa, so when it was time to get their hands dirty, they were more than willing.
CRACK.
CRACK.
The two hulking men limbered up, a disdainful sneer on their faces as they looked at the much scrawnier Zheng Yan.
“Young Master Wu, with his skinny arms and legs, I’m worried I won’t be able to hold back.”
“Don’t worry.
If you kill or cripple him, I’ll take full responsibility.”
The two henchmen smirked.
“Well, that’s a relief.”
They immediately started walking toward the seated Zheng Yan.
When they reached Zheng Yan, he remained seated, watching them with a casual air.
“You’re asking to die!” one of the men, who had a full-sleeve tattoo, roared as he threw a vicious punch at Zheng Yan.
He was confident that a single punch would be enough to put an ordinary person in the hospital for at least six months.
And if the guy was unlucky or too frail, it might even paralyze him.
Zheng Yan, however, remained seated, showing no intention of dodging or fighting back.
A smile touched the lips of both Wang Jiaxin and Wu Fa.
‘The idiot must be scared stiff.
He’s not even trying to dodge.’
With a speed invisible to the naked eye, Zheng Yan shot out a kick, striking the man squarely on the calf.
The man, who had been about to punch Zheng Yan, lost his balance from the kick and collapsed to the ground.
Zheng Yan looked at the man on the ground and chuckled.
“Hey, it’s not a special occasion.
No need to bow so formally.”
The fall was a hard one; the man even lost a few teeth.
Wu Fa and his companions were dumbfounded.
They hadn’t seen Zheng Yan move at all.
It was as if the henchman had simply tripped and fallen on his own.
“What the hell are you doing?
Can’t the two of you handle him?” Wu Fa roared.
The other henchman glanced at Zheng Yan and moved in to kick him.
But the moment he lifted his leg, he ended up just like his partner—sprawled on the ground, unable to move.
Zheng Yan chuckled. The source of this chapter is novelping.com.
“I told you there was no need for such a formal bow, but you insist on kowtowing.”
“What is wrong with you two?” Wu Fa bellowed.
“I pay you to eat and drink well, and this is all you can do?”
Zheng Yan couldn’t be bothered with them any longer and rose to his feet.
He had spotted a red sports car approaching in the distance.
That must be Lu Yan.
The car matched her description.
Seeing Zheng Yan get up, Wu Fa and Wang Jiaxin hastily backed away.
“What on earth did you do?
Why are they like this?” Wang Jiaxin asked, her voice tinged with fear.
‘This is too freaky.’
‘Those two were about to hit Zheng Yan, and they just collapsed.’
‘One could be a coincidence, but both of them at once?
Something’s definitely wrong.’
Zheng Yan rolled his eyes at them.
“Who knows?
Maybe they just have bad legs.
You should call an ambulance.
They might still be treatable.”
With that, Zheng Yan stood his ground, waiting for the red sports car to pull up.
RUMBLE—
The red sports car came to a precise stop right beside Wu Fa and Wang Jiaxin.
Wu Fa turned and his jaw dropped at the sight of the multi-million dollar sports car.
Although his own car was worth millions, it was nothing but a pile of junk compared to this one, which was worth tens of millions.
If he wasn’t mistaken, it was a Lamborghini Veneno, one of only a little over thirty in the entire world.
He couldn’t believe he was actually seeing one here.
The moment Lu Yan, dressed in a white crop top, opened the car door, all eyes were on her.
Her long, slender legs were flawless, her fair skin so delicate it seemed it would bruise at a touch, and her gorgeous face was breathtakingly beautiful.
Even Zheng Yan was taken aback.
‘Who knew Lu Yan could be so beautiful when she dressed up?’
‘She was pretty in sweats and a ponytail, but this was on a whole other level.’
Seeing Zheng Yan’s stunned expression, Lu Yan’s face showed a hint of smug satisfaction.
Wu Fa glanced from Lu Yan to Wang Jiaxin.
The difference between them was staggering.
The only one who could compare to this woman’s beauty was the young miss of the Bai Family.
But the young miss of the Bai Family was completely out of his league; he could never hope to get close to her.
‘But this beauty right here is different,’ he thought.
‘She’s gorgeous and rich.
If I could get her, it would be perfect.’
Seeing the greedy look in Wu Fa’s eyes, Wang Jiaxin said with displeasure, “Wu Fa, let’s go.
We can deal with Zheng Yan another time.”
“You head back first.
I’ve got something to take care of.”
With that, he started walking toward Lu Yan.
Wang Jiaxin froze for a second, then stomped her foot in helpless frustration.
She didn’t dare say a word.
If she angered Wu Fa, he might just dump her on the spot.
“Hey, beautiful.
All by yourself?” Wu Fa said, approaching her.
Lu Yan looked at Wu Fa with disdain, then frowned and directed a question to Zheng Yan, who was standing behind him.
“Is this guy a friend of yours?”
When Wu Fa and Wang Jiaxin saw the beautiful woman speaking to Zheng Yan, their eyes went wide.
‘This gorgeous woman with a multi-million dollar car…
actually knows Zheng Yan?’
The fact that Zheng Yan knew someone like Bai Zhi was already shocking enough.
And now, another absolute stunner shows up.
Zheng Yan smiled.
“Never seen him before.
No idea where he crawled out from.”
Hearing that Zheng Yan didn’t know him, Lu Yan snapped, “Get lost.
You’re in my way.
Move it, or I’ll crush you.”
Zheng Yan, however, was already used to Lu Yan’s behavior.
The young beauty had always been this feisty.
‘He recalled that the first two times they met, she had launched a sneak attack on him.’
‘If his skills hadn’t been superior, she might have actually pinned him under her heel.’
Instead of being put off, Wu Fa was thrilled by Lu Yan’s fiery personality.
‘Conquering a beauty like this is what makes it fun,’ he thought.
‘If they all just throw themselves at you like Wang Jiaxin, where’s the thrill?’
“No need to get so worked up, gorgeous.
I just want to get to know you.”
As he spoke, he casually reached out to put an arm around Lu Yan.
But Lu Yan wasn’t about to let him succeed.
In a flash, she caught his arm in a joint lock and twisted it behind his back.
“Ow, ow, ow!
Let go!”
Wu Fa grimaced in pain.
‘He never imagined such a fashionable, beautiful woman could be this strong.’
Zheng Yan walked past the struggling Wu Fa.
“Alright, let’s get going.
No point wasting any more time.”
Then, to Wang Jiaxin’s utter astonishment, he slid right into the red Lamborghini.
Lu Yan released Wu Fa, then sent him sprawling with a swift kick to the rear.
Wu Fa stumbled and fell flat on his face.
