The woman, heavily made-up, who had run out from the KTV, now stood in front of the beaten young man:

"Sanpi, please, stop hitting my brother! Let him go!"

The woman's face was filled with panic as she looked at the young man's bruised face and could not help but burst into tears.

Seeing the woman, the young man on the ground became furious:

"Xiaocui! I'll call off the engagement when I get back, get the gifts back, and pay A'Kui. You must come home with me today, a pure girl like you can't work in such a filthy place!!!"

"Brother..."

Hearing her brother's words, Xiaocui was already sobbing uncontrollably, knowing well that she had borrowed from loan sharks, and repaying it would cost much more than just the money!

Watching the siblings' miserable appearance, a few tattooed men sneered and kicked the young man back to the ground several more times.

Among them, a tower-like leader glared with ferocious eyes:

"I'm telling you, Gua Wa! Either you pay up now, or let your sister work here as a lady for a year; considering the hometown connection, Brother Kui will then clear your debt! You damn well won't pay and don't want your sister to sell herself—do you think there are such good things in this world?"

"Sanpi! Give me half a day, just half a day, and I'll have the money for you! But my sister, I must take her away!"

The beaten young man knew the character of these people all too well; if his sister really stayed here, she'd be ruined by these bastards within a day.

Hearing the young man's resolute words, Sanpi's face grew even more menacing, and he viciously slapped the young man across the face:

"You want to take her away, impossible! I'm telling you, she must sell herself here today and must make sure all my brothers are comfortably serviced!"

Sanpi's eyes briefly swept over Xiaocui's alluring body with a greedy look. He had heard that Xiaocui was still untouched and was also beautiful, and such a girl, whether for personal use or to sell, would definitely be a bargain!

Hearing this, both Xiaocui and the beaten young man turned deathly pale, especially Xiaocui, whose face was filled with terror:

"Sanpi, Brother Kui only told me to sing for the guests, he never said anything about doing anything else! If you force me, I absolutely won't do it!"

Xiaocui was both shocked and angry; it was her first day at work, but listening to Sanpi's words, it was clear it wasn't just about singing.

"Sing?" When the young men heard this, they all laughed:

"Haha... Absolutely! Here at our legitimate KTV, all these are indeed refined matters!"

"Hehe... Exactly, all our music here is melodious. One day, we'll let you experience it!"

...

The young men chuckled and laughed, and their words only increased Xiaocui and her brother's fear.

"Enough talk! Hurry up and get this girl locked up and teach her some manners! And this Gua Wa, beat him up and throw him out!"

Sanpi clearly lost his patience and, with a wave of his hand, several young men charged at Gua Wa and Xiaocui!

"Let go of me! I won't do it! You're all no good!"

Xiaocui panicked, struggling continuously. Seeing a young man reach for her chest, she immediately scratched his face.

"Damn! You fucking bitch!"

The young man's face was marked with several scratches, and in a rage, he viciously slapped Xiaocui's pretty face.

Slap!!!

A crisp sound made Gua Wa's face change drastically, but just as he was about to charge forward and desperately fight with the young man, he suddenly paused!

Cui still stood in her original spot, looking terrified, but she hadn't been hit at all. Instead, the young man who had hit her was struck so hard that blood streamed from the corner of his mouth, leaving him completely stunned.

And between the two of them, a handsome young man had appeared out of nowhere!

Seeing this young man, Gua Wa could only feel a sense of familiarity, but it wasn't until he heard Cui's cry of surprise that he suddenly remembered who this person was.

"Ye... Brother Ye! Is that you?"

Cui stared at Ye Feng, who was standing in front of her, her face filled with disbelief.

Ye Feng gave her a slight smile and then reached out to ruffle Cui's hair:

"I never thought you'd grow this tall, girl!"

Ye Feng looked at Cui and Gua Wa, feeling a wave of emotion in his heart.

Both of their hometowns were located at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, just outside the city, close to the hill where Ye Feng and Li Qingshan lived. They could be considered childhood friends, and Ye Feng and Gua Wa were even middle school classmates.

However, since Ye Feng had left, he had never seen them again. Now that he did, they felt extremely dear to him.

Especially Cui, Ye Feng remembered how she used to be a crybaby when they were in school, always following him around like a little snotty pest. He hadn't expected her to turn out so charming.

"Brother Ye! It really is you!"

At that moment, Cui's eyes instantly reddened, her face filled with joy. It had been three years since she had last seen Ye Feng, and she had thought she might never see him again. She hadn't expected to run into him here.

And Gua Wa was equally thrilled. Ye Feng used to be exceedingly aloof, and the best relationship he had was with this brother and sister:

"Ye! You've finally come back!"

Gua Wa wanted to step forward and catch up with Ye Feng, but thinking of the current situation, his expression instantly worsened:

"San Pi, look, since I and Ah Kui are fellow townsfolk, please let it go today, okay? I'll bring you the money tonight!"

Gua Wa now just wanted to quickly resolve this matter, otherwise Ye Feng being here could potentially complicate things for him.

Moreover, he, Ye Feng, and Ah Kui were all middle school classmates. He knew very well about the deep-rooted conflict between Ah Kui and Ye Feng. If this issue escalated and Ah Kui found out about Ye Feng's return, things would get even more troubled!

But San Pi and his group were not paying any attention to Gua Wa at the moment; their eyes were locked intently on Ye Feng:

"Kid! Who the hell are you? Daring to hit my brother, you're courting death!!"

San Pi's eyes were fierce. On this street, who didn't know that San Pi and Brother Kui were tough guys? This was the first time someone dared to hit his men without a second word.

"Get him! Let this youngster know what he's up against!"

San Pi's words were harsh, and upon hearing them, several other young men immediately surrounded Ye Feng, especially the one who had been hit earlier. He fiercely pulled out a folding knife and aimed it straight at Ye Feng.

This scene shocked both Gua Wa and Cui. The two wanted to intervene but it was already too late.

However, as quickly as they pounced, they were sent flying back even faster!

With a swift kick, all those men were sent flying three to four meters away. Especially the guy with the folding knife, his arm was kicked so hard it broke instantly, hanging twisted and miserably!
