The last man with a leopard tattoo on his neck was different from the other three. From the beginning, he had been eyeing Bai Yuxia with greed: "I'll make the decision. You give us three thousand and buy us a drink, and we'll call it even."

The few of them were discussing, seemingly having settled the matter.

After all, it was just a young man against them, four adults. What kind of trouble could he possibly cause?

The fat woman was equally fearless.

Bai Yuxia, who was usually calm, still felt angry at their shamelessness, her usually fair face turning slightly red, her chest heaving with disgust in her eyes.

People addicted to gambling often have all kinds of bad habits. The man with the leopard tattoo continued to stare at Bai Yuxia greedily, without any attempt to hide it. He continued, "This is your girlfriend, right? Little brother, you're really lucky, ha ha ha."

"We've already been lenient. You can turn around and leave, find someone to help, but once you step out of this door, it's hard to say what will happen to your phone!"

The man with the leopard tattoo picked up a small hammer from the side, gesturing a hammering motion, while saying, "Little brother, show some mercy. Come have a drink with me..."

He was still speaking.

Jiang Ning stepped forward, kicking with a fierce leg swing that pierced the air like a whip, slamming into the jaw of the man with the leopard tattoo, making a sharp "crack" sound come from his neck.

The man with the leopard tattoo fell backward, crashing into the automatic mahjong machine, scattering mahjong tiles everywhere in the chaotic scene.

Jiang Ning said coldly: "To hell with you!"

It was only then that the other three realized what had happened. The fat woman screamed, spouting vulgar insults, bursting out with the utmost crudeness of an older woman, all sorts of extreme insults spewing out.

Hearing the nasty insults, Jiang Ning's expression grew colder. Raising his right hand, his entire arm tightened like a drawn bowstring, he stepped forward heavily.

The fat woman reached out with sharp nails, trying to scratch his face.

Jiang Ning's shoulder blades dropped slightly, gathering strength in his palm, and in the next moment, he swung his palm violently, muscles and bones jerking as the palm shot out with great force, slamming onto the fat woman's face.

"Boom!"

Jiang Ning said: "You are too noisy."

Her insults abruptly stopped, her face twisted suddenly, twisting her body, her robust body flying two meters away, hitting a cement wall, a few teeth ejected with blood.

Jiang Ning used a paper to wipe cosmetics off his hand, finally realizing what it felt like when the boys in class fought with Pang Jiao.

The man with the gold chain and the bald big man were furious, their temples flushed, one raising a stool, the other pulling out a steel pipe, both attacking Jiang Ning fiercely.

Bai Yuxia silently sweated for him.

"Die!" The bald big man swung the steel pipe at Jiang Ning's back.

Jiang Ning slid his left foot back, the steel pipe sliding past, as he reached out, grabbing the pipe.

Bai Yuxia watched clearly, seeing veins bulge with strength in Jiang Ning's hand.

Jiang Ning grasped the steel pipe, fiercely pulling it, causing the bald big man's hand to go numb and release the pipe.

Jiang Ning swung the pipe in a downward strike, meeting the stool of the man with the gold chain, smashing through it with explosive force, sending fragments flying, finally pounding into the shoulder of the man with the gold chain, the sound of bones cracking brutally.

Jiang Ning swung the steel pipe backhand, slamming into the bald big man's chest, sending him spinning to the ground.

Jiang Ning tossed aside the steel pipe, walked over to the mahjong table, grabbed the fat woman's black bag, and ripped it open, retrieving Bai Yuxia's iPhone 5S from inside.

Standing amidst the chaos, he took out an alcohol wipe, gently cleaning it, using an alcohol swab to carefully clean the speaker area, then handed the phone to Bai Yuxia.

Jiang Ning said: "The item is now returned to its rightful owner."

Bai Yuxia was beyond shocked. She knew Jiang Ning could fight, and quite well, but before, it was within Class 8, with everyone helping to cover it up to prevent any issues.

Who would have thought Jiang Ning would be just as fierce out in society? Wasn't he afraid of consequences?

Gazing at the four injured people, some unconscious, with fractures, missing teeth… As a doctor's daughter, she knew how severe these injuries were.

If discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.

'What to do, what to do?' Even in extreme situations, Bai Yuxia remained calm, her eyes wandering; the store did not have cameras, so nothing would be exposed.

The side road outside similarly lacked cameras, but there would be cameras at the elementary school gates, possibly capturing their trail.

Bai Yuxia quietly pondered a plan to help Jiang Ning avoid punishment.

Then she heard Jiang Ning on the phone: "Hello, there's illegal gambling and a fight happening here…"

Bai Yuxia: "?"

'How can he turn things upside down?' Bai Yuxia picked up the used wipes Jiang Ning left behind, wiping the steel pipe on the ground, as well as the purse.

Jiang Ning noticed her busy actions, saying: "It's okay, I have connections."

Bai Yuxia: "Hmm?"

The sound of vehicles outside, Bai Yuxia's heart tightened.

Then a man in a suit and tie stepped out of a car, walking steadily, every step striking an exceptionally standard distance. He glanced at the unconscious old man on the glass counter, face unchanged.

He approached Jiang Ning, saying: "I'm aware of your situation, let me handle it from here."

He had undergone special training, later transferring to civilian work, eventually being recruited by Evergreen Liquid, serving in the secretary department with an annual salary of 1.8 million, responsible for Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong's personal safety during the summer break.

Jiang Ning: "Alright."

Just as he was about to leave, the man in the suit picked up three bright red bills from the mahjong table.

Jiang Ning looked at him.

The man smiled: "The reward for reporting, given to you in advance."

Jiang Ning took the bills, saying: "Not bad."

After finishing, Jiang Ning and Bai Yuxia left the tobacco store.

Walking along the main road outside, Bai Yuxia saw police cars approaching in the distance, she moved her lips but ultimately suppressed the questions in her heart.

Jiang Ning voluntarily spoke: "My parents are among the initial senior executives of Changqing Liquid."

Bai Yuxia was silent, her head lowered; the influence of Evergreen Liquid Company in Yuzhou was evident, her parents had more exposure, by osmosis, she was also aware.

Privately, someone had given a very appropriate evaluation: "King of Yuzhou."

Jiang Ning stopped, gazing at Bai Yuxia, suddenly smiling: "You don't think I'm scary, do you?"

At those words, Jiang Ning noticed the atmosphere subtly changing.

Bai Yuxia stood still for a few seconds, raising her face, her fair and delicate face now carrying a sharp edge.

Her eyes had also changed, like wind stirring a calm lake, her tone displeased: "I was just wondering how to conceal for you."

How could she think Jiang Ning terrifying?

In his eyes, was she really such a thankless person?

Having said that, she accelerated her steps in a huff, seemingly wanting to go first, leaving Jiang Ning behind, her silhouette elegant in the dusky evening.

Jiang Ning saw her side braid swaying above her white sweater coat with her steps, surprisingly adding a touch of mismatched playful cuteness.

Jiang Ning knew he had wronged her, stepping up to draw closer, pulling out a wooden box: "Bai Yuxia, for you."

Bai Yuxia looked puzzled.

Jiang Ning opened the box, revealing a smooth, jade ring in Bai Yuxia's view.

And at that moment, the surrounding dark streetlights suddenly released light, as if the world was ignited, countless lights drawn by the jade ring gathered on the ring's surface.

Bai Yuxia's face was illuminated by the radiant glow of the ring, her eyes seemingly sparkling.

Standing in the darkness, facing the girl engulfed in light, Jiang Ning gently smiled: "Do you like it?"
