Now that her boyfriend, Song Baoshi, is by her side, he should pay the one billion in compensation, if he truly loves her.
So, she sat waiting for Lin Yifan to settle the score.
After sending Song Baoshi flying, Lin Yifan dusted off his hands and walked straight toward the fallen Song Baoshi, who had sustained many serious injuries.
Watching this scene, the staff of "Splendid Home" were utterly shocked.
They knew all too well who Song Baoshi was; being one of the Capital City's Seven Young Masters wasn't trivial. To easily defeat even Song Baoshi, this man's strength was way too terrifying.
Moreover, he wasn't afraid of either the Wei Family or the Song Family. What kind of power was he hiding behind him to be so fearless? They simply could not figure it out.
One thing they could be sure of was that they had offended an even more powerful existence.
Lin Yifan approached Song Baoshi and raised his hand again, about to crush Song Baoshi's crown.
Just at that moment, Song Baoshi called out to him, "Stop! Brother, I was wrong, please let me go!"
"Hmph! That's more like it. The less you resist, the less you'll suffer. You should've understood that much sooner," Lin Yifan sneered.
Then, he dragged Song Baoshi back into "Splendid Home."
At that point, Song Baoshi called out to him again, "Brother! I can still walk; let me walk by myself."
Being dragged in public, that was a face he, one of the Capital City's Seven Young Masters, could not afford to lose. If word got out, he'd be the laughingstock.
"Fine! But it'll cost you a million. Can you afford that?" Lin Yifan asked.
When your enemy begs you, that's when it's time to extort them, so you must seize the opportunity well.
"Damn it, this is outright extortion," Song Baoshi fumed internally.
If it weren't for his inferior strength, he would have killed Lin Yifan, that bastard who bullied his girlfriend, long ago.
However, anger aside, he still had to face reality.
Paying a million to save his face was not a bad deal, after all, a million wasn't too hard for him to come by. But recovering a tarnished reputation wasn't so easy. Because a stain could follow you for life, unable to be shaken off.
And so, after a moment of contemplation, he responded promptly, "Alright! I'll give you a million!"
Song Baoshi was brimming with relief, but what he didn't know was that a greater extortion was yet to come.
Lin Yifan flashed an enigmatic smile and then strode toward the inside of "Splendid Home."
Song Baoshi also struggled to his feet painfully, then limped after Lin Yifan, enduring the pain.
The incident at "Splendid Home" had already attracted the attention of many customers shopping in the center, who quietly gathered around to observe.
Some sharp-eyed onlookers recognized Wei Chengxue and Song Baoshi in the store, and they began to comment among themselves.
"Aren't those the young miss of the Wei Family and the young master of the Song Family? How did they get beaten up like this?"
"Who knows? Maybe they were showing off too much and got taken down by someone."
"If that's the case, who is that man? Why does he dare to discipline the young miss of the Wei Family and the young master of the Song Family?"
"No idea, he might be a new master who's just arrived in Yanjing and doesn't recognize the young miss of the Wei Family and the young master of the Song Family. Or he could be someone with a strong backing who's not afraid of the Wei Family or the Song Family's power."
"How is that possible? I've heard that the power behind the Wei Family and the Song Family is considered top-tier in the Cultivation World; there shouldn't be anyone stronger than them."
"You're just going by hearsay without any solid evidence, so don't blindly believe it. Besides, the world is full of amazing people, so don't think that the Wei Family and Song Family are so formidable that nobody dares to provoke them."
...
Everyone began to discuss, and among them, nobody knew Lin Yifan. After all, there weren't many spectators present at Longxing Street last night, so in Yanjing, many people still didn't recognize Lin Yifan, only knowing that there was this incredible person named Lin Yifan.
As more and more onlookers gathered, Song Baoshi, worried about losing face, shouted at the crowd outside the door, "What are you looking at? Scram!"
Having been defeated by Lin Yifan, he had already lost a great deal of face. Being gossiped and laughed at by the onlookers made him even more humiliated, which is why he was so angry.
However, his angry rebuke only invited a merciless kick from Lin Yifan.
"Bang!"
After kicking Song Baoshi to the ground, Lin Yifan scolded, "What are you yelling for? Did I ask you to yell?"
Song Baoshi, enduring the pain, got up and stared angrily at Lin Yifan, as if he wanted to swallow him whole.
"What are you looking at? If you want to kill me, just do it!"
Lin Yifan taunted, unable to bear Song Baoshi's furious glare any longer.
Song Baoshi clenched his fists tightly, gasping heavily, anger reaching its peak.
Yet, reason told him he must endure, he had to hold back and not fall into Lin Yifan's trap.
Opposing Lin Yifan would only lead to a terrible death; he must survive to avenge today's great enmity.
Afterward, he gradually calmed down, the anger in his eyes slowly receding, and his clenched fists relaxed; everything was moving in a better direction.
Seeing Song Baoshi actually restraining himself, Lin Yifan admired his capacity for forbearance. Such a person could be a formidable enemy in the future.
But it didn't matter, the stronger he became, the less Lin Yifan would fear this Song Baoshi.
On the other side, the onlookers were stunned; evidently, none of them had expected Song Baoshi to be able to hold back.
"Unbelievable! This is not scientific! How can Song Baoshi, who once swaggered defiantly in Capital City as one of the elite Seven, endure such insults and kicks? This is too unscientific."
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that Song Baoshi, one of the Capital City Seven, could possess such tremendous patience."
"Who is this guy, and why would Song Baoshi be afraid of him?"
The crowd of onlookers was full of questions. In Yanjing, only the other six could handle Song Baoshi; yet Lin Yifan was not one of those six, which left them utterly baffled.
"When did another tough guy emerge in Yanjing?"
Meanwhile, as Song Baoshi's girlfriend, Wei Chengxue felt that Song Baoshi was too cowardly, lacking any manhood. Marrying him in the future, she felt, would make her unable to hold her head high.
Thus, she began to entertain thoughts of breaking up.
In the past, Song Baoshi seemed invincible in her eyes. Now, she suddenly realized her mistake.
All the invincibility was based on the absence of a foreign invader; now that a powerful outside force had invaded Yanjing, that invincibility had vanished without a trace.
Now, she actually began to admire Lin Yifan; although she hated him intensely in her heart, she couldn't deny that Lin Yifan was really handsome, domineering, and manly.
Song Baoshi, beside her, didn't notice the change in his girlfriend's feelings at all; he still thought Wei Chengxue would understand his tolerance, not realizing that wasn't the case at all.
