âYOU!â Orffa threw a punch straight at the woman.
However, a huge force pulled his arm back in mid-air before he could reach her.
He swung his head abruptly to check out the intruder. A haughty-looking man was standing next to him, eyeing his fist frostily.
CRACK! The sound of bones cracking could be heard.
âWho are you?â He aimed his other fist at Mo Jiangyeâs head.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The other man dodged swiftly, caught hold of the outstretched arm, and threw the heavy man over his shoulder and toward the dish rack on the side.
BANG!
SPLASH!
The dish rack, which was made of tempered glass, could not withstand the direct impact and broke into pieces instantly, sending the food, plates, and glass fragments splattering all over the place.
âSis-in-law, are you alright?â
âIâm fine.â
Mo Jiangye shot daggers at the man on the floor with his eyes. âLeave my woman alone.â
He then thrust her protectively into his possessive arms. Does he think he can touch my woman? Well, heâs courting death!
The commotion invited many curious stares from onlookers. Orffa lay paralyzed on the floor when he jumped up with a sudden move and directed his fist angrily at his opponent.
Xu Xu, who was standing beside his Chief, caught the attacking fist with his hand and was thrown to the floor by the blunt force.
âWTF! Brothers, take arms!â Upon seeing his sworn brother being struck, Wang Yiyang quickly called for reinforcements.
Within seconds, the attacker was neatly surrounded by the gang.
âWho are you?â Orffa enunciated accusingly.
âThe person who will beat you to death,â Zheng Yi replied with a sneer.
Mo Jiangye escorted his lady to a safe place and asked, âDid he disturb you?â
âHeâs a creep,â she said.
âNo one move!â At right about this time, a large group of policemen in black uniforms swarmed in with their handguns.
âNo moving!â
The situation was finally under control after a few minutes.
Orffa rubbed his fist against his other palm and waved his finger arrogantly at Mo Jiangye. âIâll remember you.â
âTake him away.â
A few policemen immediately walked up and led him away.
âHow are you feeling, buddy?â Wang Yiyang asked his mate worriedly as he helped Xu Xu get up from the floor.
âAre you hurt?â Anxious, Ye Erruo was about to walk over to him.
âO-M-G! My poor waist hurts! Gosh, Iâm turning old. I better find a wife soon, or Iâll be left without offspring!â
Ye Erruo was left speechless.
âIâm good. No worries, sis-in-law.â After reassuring her, he cursed the assailant. âDonât let me catch him next time.â
Patting his shoulder, Zheng Yi told him, âYouâre such a loser. How long has it been since you last sparred with our boss? Your skills have deteriorated tremendously! Have you been skiving?â
âCOUGH! COUGH! Donât slap my shoulder! This was an accident! I was careless. I didnât expect that fella to have the strength of a bull when he looked like a scrawny monkey.â
âSo is he a bull or a monkey?â
âGet lost!â
âHa ha ha ha!â
Everyone burst into laughter and helped him find a place to rest.
âAre you sure you are alright? Should we get a doctor to examine you?â Ye Erruo suggested.
âDonât worry, sister-in-law. This fella has a long life ahead of him. He used to be knocked over by our Chief all the time. Today was just a sample.â
âNo worries, sister-in-law.â Xu Xu performed a few turns and twists with his torso and then started to have a feast again, just like he used to behave.
The woman heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that.
His Chief narrowed his eyes ominously at him and said, âWeâll have a few sparring matches after this.â
âNo, no, no, Boss!â His henchman, who was horrified at the suggestion, hastily shook his head and waved his hands at the same time.
âThis was truly a miscalculated step!â he declared solemnly.
