Wu Zhenshuai really hadn't expected Ye Xiao to dare take the money and not do the job. Moreover, this guy acted as if nothing had happened.

"Kid, don't forget who I am. If you fool me, you won't get away with it." Ye Xiao picked a chili, looked at it, smiled at Wu Zhenshuai and said, "Handsome, if you really want it, this one's for you, and so is this whole plate."

Ye Xiao had just picked a plate of chilies. Now, he was offering this plate of chilies to Wu Zhenshuai.

Wu Zhenshuai realized he had been played, and what's more, he had been thoroughly tricked.

Wu Zhenshuai smashed the plate of chilies on the ground and cursed at Ye Xiao, pointing right at his nose, "Fuck, no one around here has ever dared to mess with me like this. If I don't show you how tough I am today, you'll never know the real Wu Zhenshuai."

There was a commotion, and everyone in the restaurant had noticed. The people of Yan Country had one thing in common: they loved to gather around excitement, especially since the excitement was happening where two beauties were present, which made the diners even more curious.

"What's going on here? Can't we talk this out nicely?" A young man wearing a white shirt with a smile walked over, sporting a badge on his chest that read 'Lobby Manager.'

Wu Zhenshuai had just smashed the plate of chilies, which were picked from a pot of hot oil. Now, with his actions, some oil had splashed onto Xia Mingyue's clothes. She was very conscious about her appearance since she was the head of a company. How could she allow people to see her as unkempt?

So, when the oil stains landed on Xia Mingyue, she immediately became furious, pointing at Wu Zhenshuai and yelling, "What are you doing? Looking for trouble for no reason, huh? Do you even see what you look like? Dreaming of a toad lusting after a swan's meat?"

Xia Mingyue's words were viciously cruel. Her insult made Wu Zhenshuai's face alternate between red and white. He looked rather splendid, but that only fueled his rage even more. He felt thoroughly humiliated today.

Meanwhile, the lobby manager, blissfully unaware of the approaching storm, still smiled amiably at Wu Zhenshuai, saying, "Sir, they are dining; please return to your seat and enjoy your meal."

"Fuck your meal!" Wu Zhenshuai, fuming with anger, slapped the lobby manager across his face. The manager, slim and frail, did not get up for quite some time after that slap.

Then Wu Zhenshuai's men rushed over without a word and started beating up the lobby manager.

"See that? That's what's going to happen to you," Wu Zhenshuai, also extremely angry by now, said. If it weren't for the presence of the two beauties, he might have already hit Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao, on the other hand, calmly picked at his fish, saying, "Alright, my bad. However, I hope you'll give me a chance to explain."

Hearing the conciliatory tone in Ye Xiao's words, Wu Zhenshuai secretly thought, was this guy intentionally allowing me to show off? Was he testing to see if I'd dare to touch him? Since Ye Xiao had put it that way, Wu Zhenshuai, suppressing the rage in his heart, said, "Speak, I want to see what you've got to say!"

Ye Xiao immediately chuckled, "True, I took your three thousand bucks, but I only promised to help set things up. Whether I can successfully matchmake is beyond my guarantee. After all, those three thousand bucks didn't buy me. Besides, handsome, did you even think about it? These ladies are top-notch beauties. Could such peerless finds be bought with your measly three thousand bucks?"

As soon as Ye Xiao finished speaking, he felt a fierce pinch on his thigh, causing him to grimace with pain. He quickly changed his words, "Of course, no matter how much money you offer, they can't be bought. Beauty is priceless, don't you know that simple fact? Could it be that back in school, your language teacher was a math teacher? Still, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be taught this basic concept, right?"

"Fuck!" Wu Zhenshuai grabbed Ye Xiao's collar in fury, "I think you're asking for it!"

Ye Xiao was hoisted up by Wu Zhenshuai. Given that Ye Xiao was quite thin, and Wu Zhenshuai was big-built, the physical difference between them immediately became even more apparent.

"Ha-ha, wonderful, you want to hit me, you actually want to hit me, oh my goodness, there's no justice in this world! Brothers and sisters present, you all have to witness this for me. This guy took a fancy to the beauties beside me, even offered me three thousand bucks to help him hook up. Oh, my Lord, with the way he looks, how could the beauties possibly fancy him? Now, this jerk, infuriated, dares to attack me. Why is my life so bitter? Someone, save me!" Ye Xiao shouted heart-wrenchingly.

The crowd, upon hearing Ye Xiao's shouting, also came to understand what exactly had happened. Once they had cleared up the details, they all understood.

It turned out that the big brute wanted to take the girl for himself, but knowing he wasn't capable, he had asked someone else to step in. Impatient and desperate, he now found himself completely humiliated and even resorted to violence.

Suddenly, Wu Zhenshuai became the target of public scorn!

Wu Zhenshuai was truly on the verge of collapse. He had never imagined that things would develop to this stage. In the end, Wu Zhenshuai placed all the blame on Ye Xiao. He believed that all of this was Ye Xiao's fault. If it weren't for this troublemaker Ye Xiao, how could he have ended up in such a predicament and lost all his dignity?

"Damn your ancestors." Wu Zhenshuai swung his fist and fiercely aimed it at Ye Xiao's face.

This punch was as fast as the wind and as quick as lightning, almost hitting Ye Xiao before anyone could see clearly. Almost everyone was worried for Ye Xiao.

Especially Xia Mingyue and Fang Jing, who had just seen Ye Xiao being grabbed by this guy named Wu Zhenshuai, like a burly brute catching a small chicken waiting to be slaughtered. What is called having no strength to truss a chicken? Ye Xiao had just demonstrated that.

But in the next second, everyone was stunned, including Xia Mingyue, Fang Jing, and Wu Zhenshuai's subordinates.

Because Wu Zhenshuai's fist had not hit Ye Xiao, oh no, it should be said that it had not hit Ye Xiao's head. The fist did come into close contact with Ye Xiao, but only with Ye Xiao's palm.

Ye Xiao's palm was neither particularly large nor small, just the normal size for a man. So, at this moment, Ye Xiao's palm managed to wrap around three-quarters of Wu Zhenshuai's fist. Wu Zhenshuai, being a larger man with larger limbs, meant that Ye Xiao's hand didn't quite manage to grasp the entire fist.

Wu Zhenshuai was stunned. He simply couldn't understand how his punch, delivered with seven or eight parts of his strength, could have been caught by this seemingly frail guy in front of him. Could it be that his own fist lacked power? Obviously, that was impossible because Wu Zhenshuai's punch had once broken three ribs of a strong man.

"Oh, you scared me to death. I thought you really wanted my life. Turns out, your big size is just for show, just like a weak little lady's punch. Alright, stop making a fuss and go home," Ye Xiao said in a tone of comforting a little wife, addressing Wu Zhenshuai.

Ye Xiao's words made everyone present burst into laughter.

Ye Xiao spoke with simplicity but with an underlying humor. Of course, this humor was only appreciated by those not involved in the incident. For Wu Zhenshuai and his gang, it was obviously mockery.

"I swear, if I don't beat you to death today, you can call me grandpa," Wu Zhenshuai, fuming with anger, suddenly exerted force with his other hand, attempting to throw Ye Xiao out. However, while Wu Zhenshuai had easily grabbed Ye Xiao before, now when he exerted all his strength, he couldn't budge Ye Xiao an inch. It was as if Ye Xiao's feet had grown roots to the ground; Wu Zhenshuai couldn't move him no matter how hard he tried!

"Haha, what are you doing? We still need to eat, don't we? Or do you feel bored and want to show everyone how strong you are?" Ye Xiao chuckled sarcastically to Wu Zhenshuai.

Wu Zhenshuai was no fool. Having been through the school of hard knocks, he could certainly tell that Ye Xiao was no ordinary man. Everything just now must have been an act. Thus, he immediately signaled his underlings, shouting loudly: "Finish him off."

Upon hearing Wu Zhenshuai's words, Ye Xiao thought to himself, if all these people crowded around this small table, what if in the scuffle the two beautiful ladies next to him were hurt? What then would be the right thing to do? Ye Xiao instantly decided that no matter what happened, he couldn't let them harm the two beauties by his side. With that thought, Ye Xiao's feet moved slightly, and with a light pat, Wu Zhenshuai suddenly felt his hand go numb and instantly released his grip on Ye Xiao's clothes.

Ye Xiao swayed his body to the corridor and said to Wu Zhenshuai with a smile: "Gentlemen, please spare your brother. No way could I dare to fight against several of you alone. It doesn't matter if you hurt me, but what if by some accident, or a stroke of luck, I end up hitting someone's, oh no, a head? What then should I do?"

Ye Xiao's words once again provoked much laughter. Clearly, Ye Xiao's remarks were deliberate, while Wu Zhenshuai and his men grew even angrier, or rather, more furious. Every action and word from Ye Xiao deeply aggravated Wu Zhenshuai and his men's hearts. If they said they didn't want to kill Ye Xiao at this point, it simply wouldn't be true; Wu Zhenshuai and his men now truly loathed Ye Xiao to the bone.
