Screech—

Accompanied by a more intense braking sound, a series of "thud, thud, thud" was heard from outside the bar.

Everyone instinctively looked towards the door and then froze.

"What happened? More people coming?"

A thug whose view was blocked asked quietly.

"No, no, no... it's..."

His companion next to him stuttered, unable to speak clearly.

Before the words were finished, a group of people in uniformed attire rushed in from outside.

Anyone who knew better could see that this group couldn't be a ragtag bunch, but rather a formidable force of men.

After they entered, the thug was stunned.

He never imagined that the call for backup would actually bring such a group of people.

"Li Shuai, a core family member of the Li Family, supposedly the old man is the head of a confidential core department; maybe due to his special status, they're afraid someone might use him for leverage, so this group is always around him."

Before Yang Yan could ask, Fatty had already explained mildly.

"What? You knew this all along?"

Yang Yan turned his head curiously and asked Fatty.

"Of course!"

Fatty raised his eyebrows, speaking somewhat proudly:

"Since coming back to Huaxia, I had to know who can be messed with and who we need to be low-key around to avoid causing you trouble, boss."

"Ha ha! Fatty, your sucking-up skills have improved recently, huh?"

Yang Yan said with a smile.

Fatty giggled, quickly handing Yang Yan another strong cocktail.

"Alright, my guys are here, how do you want to play it? Let's get started!"

Li Shuai said calmly.

"Well... Brother... No, big brother! This has nothing to do with us, we're just here as customers, not to cause trouble."

Someone hastily said.

"Oh? You're here as a customer and you brought a wrench?"

A nearby waiter immediately said with a smile.

"Um... I'm a mechanic. I just came out from fixing a car and haven't had time to go back, so I thought I'd grab a drink first. Heh! This wrench is for fixing cars."

The man hurriedly explained.

"Damn! Is that even possible? Talent! I need to learn a thing or two from him about talking my way out of stuff later."

Fatty exclaimed with wide eyes.

Not only Fatty, but others also looked at the man in astonishment.

"I'll admit defeat on this, name your terms! What do you want?"

The thug who made the original call was surprisingly straightforward. Even though he realized he was outmatched today, he was determined not to appear weak.

His background was not simple either, being the illegitimate son of a crime boss from a northern province.

He came to East Sea City to avoid trouble after causing quite an incident over there.

He just didn't expect that misfortune would strike, and he'd inadvertently cross someone he shouldn't have.

"Nothing more to say, take them all away and deal with them accordingly."

Li Shuai said with a cold sneer.

"Brother, you're not giving me a way out?"

The thug raised an eyebrow and said coldly.

"Weren't you very cocky just now? If I couldn't call for backup or couldn't suppress you, would you give me a way out?"

Li Shuai retorted with a smile.

Hearing Li Shuai's words, a seemingly leading figure waved his hand and said sternly:

"Take them all away."

Upon hearing the command, the fierce men began to start taking people out.

"Wait! You think you can just leave like that? What about my place?"

Fatty downed his glass of wine in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said slowly.

The leading figure cast a suspicious glance at Fatty.

Normally, people would be eager for them to leave, right?

This Fatty seemed like a smart guy, why would he suddenly jump in and say something like this?

The leader was about to say something when Li Shuai interrupted him:

"Uncle Wei, leave it to me to handle."

As he spoke, he walked toward Fatty, smiling:

"Fatty, this was my fault. What do you plan to do?"

"Not much!"

Fatty glared at Li Shuai and said coldly:

"The debt must be repaid by its owner. Whoever did the damage is responsible. It's not about targeting you guys, but before these punks settle my place properly, no one is leaving!"

"Otherwise, if I let this slide, these punks will feel emboldened. Soon enough, any Tom, Dick, or Harry would dare to mess around in my bar, and it wouldn't need to stay open anymore."

The thug who had called for backup could see that Fatty seemed to have a solid background too.

Otherwise, Li Shuai wouldn't have this attitude.

So, he asked sternly:

"What do you want then?"

"What do I want?" Fatty sneered, "Simple! Master Fatty spent nearly three million on the stuff here. Compensate that and leave a hand behind, and we're good. Easy enough, right?"

"Killing someone's not a trivial thing. Don't go too far. I'm taking the loss today, but it has nothing to do with you. No one is made of mud! Right now, you're going for broke, but once I get through this, no matter who you are, you're dead meat."

The thug said viciously.

Even though his family's influence didn't reach here, it didn't mean it was impossible to strike back.

This time, due to a minor friction, they put up such a front, of course, he had to take the loss.

But it didn't mean he was truly easy to bully.

Once provoked, he might as well go all out.

"Alright, I'll keep your words in mind too. If you want to play, Master Fatty will accompany you to the end."

After saying so, Fatty turned to Li Shuai and asked:

"How do you plan on handling them? There are too many of them. You can't possibly take them all back, right?"

Li Shuai gave Fatty a puzzled look, not quite knowing how to respond for a moment.

He didn't understand why Fatty would question him like this in front of everyone, but he never underestimated Fatty.

You could tell by the man's collection of spirits; this guy was definitely not simple.

Not to mention that rose.

Honestly, the most unreadable character was that guy named Yang Yan.

Li Shuai wouldn't naively think that without him, this fat boss would suffer.

Today's whole fuss was actually a kind of test.

He also wanted to find out the true depth of this group's background.

Li Shuai thought about it and then said with a smile:

"Initially, I planned to properly teach them a lesson. What, does Fatty have a better suggestion?"

"Alright, anyways, you've regained your face, how about letting them go? You take your people and leave, and leave the rest to me?"

Fatty said with a smile.

Hearing Fatty's words, Yang Yan suddenly laughed.

Others might not understand, but he did!

This Fatty seemed easygoing, but he was actually a very proud person at heart.

If you smashed his store, then he'd smash your bones.

That's fair.

At least in Fatty's eyes, it's fair.
