Bang bang bang!

Wang Shuai imitated the burly shirtless man's actions, striking the thick stack of bills in his hand heavily a few times with his other hand, then glanced disdainfully at the bills in the shirtless man's hand.

The bills in the shirtless man's hand, although not thin, were a mix of hundreds and fifties, with the rest being twenties and tens. In comparison, the bills in Wang Shuai's hand had more heft.

The shirtless man's face froze; he could clearly see that this kid was belittling him for the smaller amount of money he held.

"Pfft."

Wang Shuai spat a bit of saliva between his fingers, then casually pulled out a dozen bills from the stack without looking, and flung them toward the shirtless man's chest.

Thud!

The dozen bills hit the shirtless man's chest in front of everyone and fluttered to the ground, with some falling under the seats.

"Take the money and get lost. Don't delay our trip!"

Wang Shuai glared at the shirtless man with domineering intensity.

Wow!

This shout drew everyone's attention to Wang Shuai.

"Cool, cool, Brother Wang, you're really cool!"

Zheng Wei commented at just the right volume for Wang Shuai to hear.

The corners of Wang Shuai's mouth curved involuntarily; at this moment, Wang Shuai also felt awesome—this is what it means to be rich, and the feeling of throwing money is satisfying.

However, in the next instant, Wang Shuai's eye twitched.

"Kid, got lots of money, huh?!"

The shirtless man grimaced and gave Wang Shuai a fierce look.

Suddenly confronted by the unfriendly gaze, Wang Shuai felt uneasy. Would this lunatic come up and hit him?

Shouldn't he be busy picking up the money right now, then politely say "sorry to disturb" and leave?

Of course, picking up the money was essential for the shirtless man.

"Little Bull, Four Dog, pick up the money from the ground."

The shirtless man instructed the two youths behind him.

"Yes."

The two called Little Bull and Four Dog responded cheerfully, bending down to start picking up the hundred-yuan notes from the ground.

The shirtless man, exuding an unfriendly aura, moved toward Wang Shuai.

Wang Shuai's expression changed slightly, but with all his classmates watching him, he couldn't back down. If he did, it would destroy the image he had just built.

At this moment, Zheng Wei and Fan Juejin glanced at each other and stood up to bolster Wang Shuai.

"What are you trying to do? I gave you the money; why aren't you leaving?"

Seeing his two allies stand up, Wang Shuai swallowed hard, puffed out his chest, and shouted.

"Kid, you hit me just now, so I'll treat that money as medical expenses."

The shirtless man snorted disdainfully.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuai's mouth twitched. Dammit, that's ruthless—just throwing money at you, how painful can it be? Worth over a thousand in medical fees? Isn't this extortion?!

The shirtless man gave Wang Shuai a disdainful look, as if saying, "You want to play with me? I'm extorting you, so what?"

Now Wang Shuai looked disgruntled; should he fight this guy? Even if the boys in the class teamed up against this thug, there's no guarantee he won't bring in a bunch of villagers, and then they'll suffer.

"Listen up, the toll must still be paid, not a penny less."

The shirtless man scanned everyone on the bus coldly.

"Aren't you going to handle it?"

Lu Bingyao glanced at Qin Yang beside her, knowing his skills well—not only a few thugs, but even the infamous Celestial Wolf Gang was handled by him.

"Can I stay out of it?"

Qin Yang smiled, planning for all classmates to enjoy their trip when some clueless folks showed up.

"Pay the toll honestly, twenty bucks per person, and once you pay, you can leave."

By now, the duo known as Little Bull and Four Dog had picked up all the hundred-yuan notes, beaming, and addressed everyone.

"Pay up, everyone. If you don't, just head back the way you came."

The shirtless man said coldly while moving toward the back of the bus to start collecting money.

"Hey, pay up."

Qin Yang stood in the aisle, blocking the shirtless man's way, and said flatly.

"Kid, what do you mean?"

The shirtless man's eyebrows raised as he glared at Qin Yang—yet another wanting to show off above him.

"Nothing much, just asking you to pay."

Qin Yang said indifferently.

"Ha! I've collected money from so many buses, this is the first time someone's asking me for money. Tell me, what money are you asking for?"

The shirtless man was momentarily puzzled but then laughed mockingly.

"Bus fare. You boarded our bus, how can you not pay?"

Qin Yang said as if it were inevitable.

"Bus fare? Ha, I just stood on your bus for a moment, and that's why you want money?"

The shirtless man said dismissively, as if hearing a funny joke.

"Of course, when our bus passed your village entrance, didn't you ask us for money?"

Qin Yang raised an eyebrow, a hint of satire in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, the shirtless man's face turned grave—but he could discern that this kid was mocking him.

"If you don't pay the bus fare, you can forget about getting off today."

Qin Yang coldly glanced at the shirtless man.

"Kid, trying to get yourself killed? I hate people showing off in front of me."

The shirtless man showed a vicious glint in his eyes, swinging his large palm toward Qin Yang.

"Ah...!"

Witnessing the shirtless man suddenly make his move, many girls on the bus screamed.

However, after a moment, the expected sound of a slap wasn't heard. Watching with wide eyes, they saw a slender hand, like iron pincers, firmly gripping the shirtless man's wrist.

"Kid, you...!"

The shirtless man turned pale, feeling his hand pinned as if immobile. How could this kid have so much strength?

"Since you have hands and feet but prefer extorting money on the road, hmm... perhaps it's better not to have them."

Qin Yang said expressionlessly.

Crunch!

With these words, Qin Yang's gaze turned icy, and with a forceful grip, a crisp cracking sound of bone reverberated through the bus.

Dealing with such rogue scum requires no sympathy. In some respects, they are even more loathsome than some robbers. Robbers may feel guilty about their actions and face possible imprisonment.

But these rogues have no emotional burden as they extort money, and almost never face police arrest. Even if tourists call the police, the most that happens is a few days in detention, which is trivial compared to the profit.
