...

Upon hearing these words, almost everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Not only was Shen Liang, who was in the midst of beating people, feeling better, but the group around Fatty also had their expressions improve significantly. Naturally, the most grateful was Fatty himself.

He had been beaten so severely that his entire stomach was spasming, twitching intermittently with indescribable pain and discomfort.

Shen Liang, having had special forces training, was precise in his strikes and controlled his force well. Each punch was enough to cause significant pain, but definitely wouldn't leave permanent damage.

So after this round of punches, though Fatty looked pitiful, with his face completely swollen, it was mostly superficial injuries, not lethal at all, and didn't lead to any structural damage.

"Let's go..."

For this misfortune, this group surely resented Qin Fang deeply, but they dared not speak up now, feeling even a deep sense of helplessness and despair.

It could be said that this shouldn't have escalated, yet some among them had loose tongues, saying things they shouldn't have, which led to this result.

If they were in Qin Fang's position, facing such a situation, they certainly wouldn't let it slide easily either.

Now that Qin Fang had finally said to let them go, they were eager to leave and avoid further embarrassment, considering there were dozens of eyes on them at the moment.

These few people didn't want to stay and lose face either, so they immediately supported Fatty and prepared to leave together...

"Wait..."

But just then, Qin Fang suddenly called out.

This call made their bodies stiffen immediately, and each of their expressions turned rather nasty.

"You... what do you want?"

The leading young man asked through gritted teeth, almost choking back anger.

Clearly, he was very angry at this moment, but facing the unreasonable Qin Fang, he felt like a scholar meeting a soldier, unable to reason even when right; moreover, he was in the wrong, so he had to keep his head down.

"Did I say you could leave?"

Qin Fang spoke slowly, completely indifferent to the young man's reaction, almost as if he didn't see him at all.

"Uh..."

These words from Qin Fang caused the expressions of the few young people opposite to change drastically, their faces, already ugly, becoming unbearable now.

Clearly, when Qin Fang said "get lost" earlier, he wasn't addressing all of them, but specifically targeting Fatty.

Fatty had taken a beating, settling the score, but there were others who had egged him on earlier, and Qin Fang intended to deal with them one by one.

"Friend, when possible, one should show mercy... You've already beaten one of our brothers like this, do you still want to beat us all up?"

The leading young man wasn't stupid, naturally understanding Qin Fang's implication. But the clearer he understood, the worse his expression became, his tone getting rather severe, seemingly ready to tear things apart completely.

"You've said it right..."

Qin Fang looked at this rather tough young man in front of him and said rather calmly and disdainfully, completely disregarding these people.

"Go!"

And then, while the others were momentarily dazed, Qin Fang casually ordered.

Shen Liang had already been waiting by the side, and upon hearing Qin Fang's words, he swiftly charged at the opposing group of wealthy and official second-generation kids like a hungry tiger pouncing on prey, his fists raining down on them.

A few dared to resist, perhaps relying on some self-training or the advantage of numbers, but while the idea was nice, the result wasn't as expected.

Anyone who dared to resist got special attention from Shen Liang, taking two or three extra punches to their faces or bodies, whereas those who only knew to cower and flee got just two punches and no more, usually collapsing to the ground pretending to be dead...

In a short time, including the leading young man, all six opponents had fallen to the ground, each with bruised and battered faces, and not a single one escaped, receiving a hefty beating.

"We... we're not done yet!"

When Shen Liang finally stopped, a group of people lay there moaning in agony, while the young man leading them spoke through gritted teeth.

They initially thought that by showing a bit of aggression and acting like they were ready to break all ties, Qin Fang would be somewhat cautious. But they didn't expect Qin Fang to completely deviate from the norm, showing them no respect at all, and instead, gave everyone a severe beating.

Originally, while they felt a little sorry for Fatty's predicament, they also felt a slight sense of relief. But now, they felt nothing but frustration, tragedy, and animosity.

The group looked at Qin Fang with eyes filled with intense hostility. If they didn't know that they were no match for him, they would have probably rushed forward together, risking everything.

Many people must have gloomily thought to themselves, "Why didn't I bring more bodyguards onto the ship?"

"Speak, who sent you here?"

Regardless of their thoughts, Qin Fang couldn't care less. These people were just a bunch of rich kids— the true mastermind hadn't shown up yet. Qin Fang took two steps forward, standing in front of the group, and spoke in a low tone.

"What?"

When Qin Fang said this, the few people on the ground were instantly dumbfounded, or too shocked to speak.

Several people's eyes simultaneously turned to the young man in the lead, including Fatty.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand..."

The young man looked horrified, but then quickly regained his composure, putting on a face of feigned ignorance, as if he really knew nothing.

"What I'm saying, maybe only you truly understand among everyone here... Perhaps it's entirely you trying to provoke me, only to let others take the blame! Tell me, am I right or not?"

Qin Fang didn't seem surprised by the young man's response. Instead, he smiled and bluntly revealed the truth.

"You... you're trying to sow discord among us brothers!"

The young man was clearly not giving up. Noticing the strange looks from his companions, he became anxious and exclaimed urgently, still planning to deny everything.

"Whether there's discord or not, I think you know better than I do! Some things aren't just about what I say, the eyes of the masses are discerningly bright. No matter how well you cover it up, a flaw will still show..."

Qin Fang's expression was calm, as if he didn't care at all. However, every word he spoke hit a sore spot, making someone's face look as ugly as it could be!

Qin Fang had said his piece, and it was no longer his time to perform. Now, it was Fatty and the group's turn.

"Zhang Wei, we took you as a good brother, and you actually..."

The first to speak was the badly beaten Fatty. He usually had the best relationship with this young man, but now he was the one wronged the most, showing a faint trace of venom on his swollen face that barely registered any emotional change.

In those nearly invisible swollen small eyes, there was a malicious glare...

Poor unfortunate Fatty, who was brutally beaten by Shen Liang. The wounds on his body weren't very heavy—almost invisible even—but it didn't deny that he was indeed severely beaten and still struggled to move. Any slight movement brought a full-body tremor of pain.

Not only him, but the others weren't any better. Shen Liang always aimed for places with lots of flesh, not striking vital areas nor lethal injuries, but causing intense pain regardless.

These lads, who grew up with silver spoons in their mouths, were always the bullies, never the ones being bullied like this, especially beaten this harshly...

If they were brawling with others and got beaten so badly, at least they would feel united against a common enemy, with a shared goal.

But this matter at hand, in essence, was orchestrated by someone with ulterior motives, intentionally creating this encounter, chaos, and provocation, which made it a completely different story.

The person behind the scenes probably already knew this result, but some were kept in the dark. How could their spirits be calm?

If Qin Fang hadn't brought it up, they would know nothing, and perhaps it would have just blown over, their hatred focused solely on Qin Fang as the enemy.

But Qin Fang, wanting to know who was targeting him, deliberately revealed the truth. This was understandable, but coincidentally exposing someone's hidden schemes made things tricky.

"Zhang Xu, this really has nothing to do with me! I... you all were deceived by him!"

This young man named Zhang Wei had an extremely ugly expression, occasionally glaring maliciously at Qin Fang. Still, he stubbornly denied there was any mastermind behind this, seemingly determined to tough it out.

"Oh, really? Then why don't you tell them, what the person promised to help your father secure the position?"

Qin Fang hadn't planned to say more, but since Zhang Wei refused to relent and wanted to continue slandering him, he was no longer polite, directly poking at Zhang Wei's Achilles' heel, exposing even these extremely secretive matters.

"You... how do you know about that?"

When Qin Fang said this, not only were Fatty and the others shocked, but Zhang Wei himself looked ghostly, dumbfounded and wordless. He instinctively asked in return.
