Chapter 76
Who are you all on?
Just as Qiao Lingling was about to be beaten, a figure suddenly appeared and approached her.
Chen Huan quickly snatched the baseball bat from Brother Long and slapped him across the face, knocking him to the ground.
Those watching the spectacle couldn't help but gasp in surprise again.
"You, you actually dared to hit someone?" Xia Meili stood to the side, dumbfounded.
In her memory, her ex-husband Chen Huan was always honest and simple, and he would always be submissive when faced with problems.
Whether at home or outside, he never dared to stand out or show any backbone.
But what's wrong with him today? Not only has his aura and eyes become strangely sharp and fierce, but even his every move is filled with an overwhelming domineering aura.
The contrast between these qualities and that of a man who was originally a good-for-nothing was so striking that Xia Meili could hardly believe it.
"Well done, Chen Huan! That was really satisfying!" Qiao Lingling exclaimed excitedly from the side.
Chen Huan looked at her strangely, thinking that this proprietress was really a fanatical warmonger who would rush forward without caring about anything else when there was a fight.
Has she forgotten something? This is her own restaurant.
Moreover, this guy called Brother Long is clearly not a good person.
Sure enough, before he even got up from the ground, he quickly pulled out his phone and called for help, "Come quick, everyone come to the sauerkraut fish restaurant in town!"
"Grab your weapons, I'm going to raze this place to the ground today!"
Qiao Lingling frowned. "Look at you, acting like a bulldozer. Try digging one up yourself and see what happens!"
The diners in the restaurant couldn't help but gossip as they watched the spectacle.
Judging from their conversation and expressions, it's easy to tell that the guy with Xia Meili, Brother Long, does indeed have some influence.
Some people even quietly moved to different spots, trying to stay as far away from the passageway as possible.
They were probably afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire when a large number of people from the community rushed in.
"I've gotten myself into trouble now, and I'm afraid I'll cause you more problems," Chen Huan said somewhat embarrassed.
"It's okay, we can always have another fight." Qiao Lingling seemed nonchalant.
At this moment, Brother Long stood up and said menacingly, "Little girl, you're quite optimistic. When my brothers arrive, you'll be out of a job running this restaurant."
"If you want to continue doing business, that's fine. But how do you plan to handle this situation today?"
Chen Huan's thinking was simple: since this matter originated from him, he should not let it implicate the restaurant under any circumstances.
So they stopped Qiao Lingling, who still wanted to negotiate forcefully.
When Brother Long asked, "What do you want?"
Brother Long glanced at him. "Who are you? What's your relationship with Xia Meili?"
Before Chen Huan could answer, he continued, "I see now, you're her good-for-nothing ex-husband, right?"
"Did you see Xia Meili with me and get upset, so you came to cause trouble?"
Chen Huan glanced at Xia Meili with disgust but did not refute her.
Meanwhile, Qiao Lingling, standing next to her, stared wide-eyed, looking like she was waiting to see what would happen next.
The onlookers became even more excited.
I don't care how dramatic the plot becomes; I just want to enjoy the gossip to my heart's content.
"He wouldn't dare to cause trouble."
"He just lost his mind for a moment and came here to court death."
"Brother Long, why don't we go somewhere else? Let's not bother with this kind of guy," Xia Meili suggested as she approached him.
Brother Long reached out and pinched his face, gritting his teeth as he said, "What, you're not worried about me hurting him, are you?"
Xia Meili smiled ingratiatingly and said hastily, "How could that be?"
"I've long been utterly disappointed in this man. Only a real man like you, Brother Long, will stay in my heart."
Brother Long raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
"In that case, I'll give you face."
"Make him come over here, kneel down and kowtow to me, and then have your sister submit to me tonight, and we'll call it even."
Xia Meili's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but without any hesitation, she directly said to Chen Huan, "Are you deaf? Can't you hear what Brother Long said?"
"His men arrive as soon as they say they'll. By then, it will be too late even if you beg for mercy. Rather than getting beaten up and losing your arms and legs and making a scene, you might as well back down now."
"Anyway, you've been a coward for most of your life, so this kind of thing is nothing to you."
"Don't drag me into this, do you hear me?"
After saying that, she glared at Xia Xiaozhu, who was standing behind her with a tense and sad expression, and said, "You come over here quickly too. Brother Long... he won't do anything to you."
"You'd rather believe that good-for-nothing Chen Huan than your own sister?"
Xia Xiaozhu was worried that Chen Huan would be retaliated against, so she hesitated to go forward.
Chen Huan sighed and, while stopping Xia Xiaozhu, said to Qiao Lingling, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm really going to cause trouble for your restaurant today."
"I wanted to let this go, but judging from the current situation, it seems that's impossible."
Xia Meili coldly rebuked, "Chen Huan, what do you mean?"
"You're being given a way out, why don't you take it? What are you doing, acting so recklessly at a time like this?"
Brother Long snorted, "If someone's courting death, then they can't blame me."
As soon as the words were spoken, the sound of slamming brakes came from the doorway, along with a cacophony of footsteps.
A group of menacing-looking people, armed with guns and clubs, were about to storm into the restaurant.
"You came pretty quickly." Chen Huan handed Xia Xiaozhu over to Qiao Lingling.
I planned to intercept them at the door.
This farce must not be allowed to happen inside the restaurant.
"What's going on? Can't we even have a quiet meal?"
"Isn't this a harmonious society now? Why are there still some cats and dogs shouting for violence, as annoying as flies?" A familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
Chen Huan turned his head and saw that it was Coach Sun and Kim Dae-sung coming over.
Because of this delay, more than a dozen people barged in, shouting.
Brother Long threatened smugly, "It's not too late to kneel down now."
"Kneel down to your mother!" Coach Sun grabbed a stool from the side and swung it at Brother Long's head.
Before the guy could even react, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
The group of people who rushed in intending to cause trouble were completely stunned.
Coach Sun took two steps forward and unzipped his tracksuit, revealing colorful tattoos and a prominent knife scar.
At this moment, Chen Huan saw clearly that Coach Sun had a tattoo of a striped tiger on his body.
Have you heard of Sun Laohu?
"Which boss are you with?" Coach Sun asked directly, his expression arrogant.
"Sun Laohu?"
"Damn, didn't I hear he retired a long time ago? What's he doing here?"
The person opposite instinctively took a few steps back.
"What's wrong? You dare to cause trouble but don't dare to register?"
"These young thugs nowadays are nowhere near as good as we were back then. They're all cowards, yet they love to act tough."
"Is the main theme 'spending your days in the underworld, getting beaten up every day'?"
"Who's in charge among you? Come out and talk to me!" Coach Sun yelled as he walked forward.
He took one step forward, and the people opposite him took two steps back. In the blink of an eye, they were already out the door.
Everyone rushed over to watch the commotion, ignoring Brother Long, who was still lying unconscious on the ground.
Xia Meili stood there blankly, staring at Chen Huan's still thin but now somewhat fierce back, lost in thought.
"Is he still Chen Huan?"
Chen Huan quickly snatched the baseball bat from Brother Long and slapped him across the face, knocking him to the ground.
Those watching the spectacle couldn't help but gasp in surprise again.
"You, you actually dared to hit someone?" Xia Meili stood to the side, dumbfounded.
