Li Yan, an actress of such rank, was just one step away from soaring to the pinnacle of her career and becoming a sensation across the straits in Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan. It's hard to say how many entertainment reporters wanted to dig up news about her.

Especially in entertainment hubs like Hong Kong and Taiwan, paparazzi are everywhere. Female anchors must always be on their guard!

If they were discovered by reporters or surrounded by fans, it would indeed be a tragedy for the female anchors.

"Then why are you still wearing sunglasses!" Ye Chen said.

"If you're going to hide, you've got to do it right. How can a star not wear sunglasses when going out? Isn't that what stars do?" Li Yan replied.

"I can put up with all that, but why on earth are you wearing a mask!" Ye Chen roared.

"What's wrong?"

Li Yan felt a bit scared, Ye Chen's roaring seemed so intimidating.

"You've wrapped yourself up so tightly that I can't even steal a kiss. Isn't that a bit too much!" Ye Chen lamented after his outburst.

"..."

Two hours later.

Ye Chen and Li Yan, tired from their play, held hands as they headed home.

But before they got home, they ran into trouble.

A group of thugs were gathered in the street, surrounding a young woman, and seemed to have sinister intentions.

Ye Chen, at a glance, saw that the woman was very beautiful, which was probably why she had attracted this unwelcome attention.

The leader of the thugs was a young man, smoking a cigarette and intimidating the young woman with a menacing thug's sneer on his face.

"Ye Chen, let's call the police!" After witnessing this frightening scene, Li Yan immediately thought of seeking help from the police.

"Uh," Ye Chen hesitated.

"Give me my bag; my phone is in it!" Li Yan, with her sense of justice soaring, demanded her bag as she saw the bad guys.

"By the time the police arrive, that woman will be doomed," Ye Chen said.

"What should we do then!" Li Yan exclaimed.

"Don't you know that I'm quite the fighter?" Ye Chen said with a grin, revealing his small white teeth.

"Then hurry up and go, if you don't, that girl is going to be bullied by the bad guys!"

Li Yan then remembered Ye Chen's might and majesty; even a grandmaster would be easily crippled in his hands, let alone dealing with a few petty thugs.

"..."

Ye Chen was some distance from the group of thugs, and since Li Yan initially planned to call the police, they had taken cover in a shadowy area, so the thugs hadn't noticed them.

Ye Chen moved like a wraith, silently approaching the group of thugs.

"Babe, how old are you this year? I'm twenty-eight, how about I give you a set of free services?"

"Stop resisting, girl, just play with us for a bit. We know you're a car model; we've had our eye on you for a long time!"

The group of thugs cornered the woman, completely unaware of Ye Chen's approach.

Li Nianwei, surrounded by a bunch of small-time hooligans and mocked by these despicable reprobates, despite her valiant resistance, knew that she probably couldn't escape this fate!

The hooligans had been watching her for a long time and had planned this scene meticulously, casting a shadow over Li Nianwei's heart.

Li Nianwei had been entangled by these small-time thugs for half an hour, and in the meantime, several passersby had come by. However, they all avoided the scene like the plague. They didn't even bother to make a phone call to the police, let alone act heroically and come to her rescue.

All of this was a huge setback for Li Nianwei.

And these villainous scum were becoming increasingly brazen, as excited as if they were on poison, Li Nianwei knew she would soon be dragged into a corner and bullied by these vile people, because that's what always happened in the movies.

Li Nianwei looked at the group with an icy face, taking in their hideous expressions. Unwilling to fall victim to them, she was determined to remember their faces and then bite her tongue and commit suicide, returning as a vengeful ghost to exact her revenge!

However, just as Li Nianwei began to contemplate death, she saw a radiant smile like sunshine that warmed her heart.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Ye Chen's hands moved so quickly they created afterimages as he struck, his speed was extremely fast, causing seven or eight thugs to collapse simultaneously with a hit to a vital pressure point; they fell to the ground, eyes rolling back, without even the slightest struggle.

"That's too much bullying!" Ye Chen shook his hands and glanced at the unconscious thugs on the ground, feeling he might have bullied them a bit too much.

Now a peak Grandmaster with the strength to uproot trees and split mountains, Ye Chen dealt with this group of punks with ease—it was truly a case of bullying.

"What!"

Li Nianwei's face was full of shock, her eyes showing a disbelief as if she saw someone eating feces.

The speed at which Ye Chen struck had been too fast; the seven or eight thugs had been practically instantaneous kills, which Li Nianwei found hard to believe.

"Ye Chen, you're awesome!"

Li Yan ran over, exhilarated. The way Ye Chen fought was simply too cool!

"Li Yan!" Li Nianwei exclaimed.

Li Nianwei was a beautiful car model with some fame in her circle and had crossed paths with the sexy anchor a few times.

However, be it status or fame, Li Nianwei couldn't compare to Li Yan, so while Li Nianwei knew of the anchor, Li Yan didn't recognize her.

"What!"

Seeing Ye Chen holding hands with the anchor, Li Nianwei was stupefied.

"They're not dead, right?" Li Yan asked, tilting her head up.

"No, they've just been knocked out," Ye Chen said.

"Then let's hurry home, it's almost ten, we shouldn't miss the main event!" Li Yan said.

"Uh, okay then!"

Ye Chen, carrying a big bag and holding hands with the anchor, strode forward towards home.

"They, they're just leaving like that?" Li Nianwei felt as if she was a puff of air, completely ignored by the two.

"How could these two do this, after a heroic rescue, they don't even give the beauty a chance to express her gratitude!"

Li Nianwei, somewhat inexplicably angry, kicked wildly a few times at the face of one of the thugs, who was still unconscious and incapable of resistance, promptly knocking out two of his front teeth.

"Is that man Li Yan's boyfriend?"

Li Nianwei thought seriously. She was someone who repaid kindness and considered buying ten kilograms of pork to show her gratitude to Ye Chen.

...

"That beauty must be quite shaken up and in need of comfort; is it really okay for us to just leave like this?" Ye Chen said.

"We saved her, not owed her money, where is the problem in us simply leaving?" Li Yan replied.

"But isn't it a bit too impolite for us to leave without saying a word?" Ye Chen said with a sheepish smile.

"Hmph!" Li Yan scoffed. "If we don't make a quick escape, what if that beauty impulsively offers herself to you in gratitude?"

Li Yan felt somewhat threatened by the beautiful woman Ye Chen had saved, so she insisted that they run away quickly.

"Am I that kind of person?" Ye Chen glared.

"You are exactly that kind of person!" Li Yan said. "All of us have agreed that whoever is by your side must monitor you at all times!"

Ye Chen: "..."
