Biao, Zeng Biao.

Forget a small real estate company; even the local eight major families would give him face when necessary. And Li Dahua was indeed utterly respectful in front of him, fawning over him with cigarettes and tea.

In Xicheng, no matter what you did, if you didn't have Brother Biao's approval, you were bound to face endless trouble and accomplish nothing.

Li Chao clutched his swollen face, collapsing to the ground trembling, his eyes filled with panic and fear. He could never have imagined that such a trivial matter would provoke such a powerful figure! He had really kicked an iron plate this time.

Zeng Biao rested one hand on the back of the sofa, a cigar clamped in the other, and asked Zhang Hai with a smile, "Boss Zhang, are you satisfied with how I've handled this?"

"Of course I'm satisfied, hehehe!" Zhang Hai laughed lecherously, then pointed at Zou Dan and another girl. "In that case, I'll be so bold as to choose these two first."

In truth, among all the girls, Qin Mo's looks and figure were the most outstanding. But Zhang Hai knew his place; the best, of course, had to be reserved for Brother Biao.

Zeng Biao nodded in satisfaction. "Then I won't be polite. I'll take the rest."

"It's what Brother Biao deserves!" Zhang Hai grinned, his narrow, triangular eyes, full of lust, fixed on Zou Dan with a predatory smirk.

In an instant, Zou Dan, Qin Mo, and the other girls turned deathly pale. Panicked, they instinctively looked to their male companions with pleading eyes.

Faced with their desperate gazes, Lu Hao and the other boys all hung their heads in silence, not daring to meet their eyes.

That was Brother Biao!

Even Li Chao had been beaten. What could they possibly do?

Li Chao struggled to his feet and said, steeling himself, "Biao... Brother Biao, they're all my friends. Do you think you could let them go?"

"How about this? All of Brother Biao's expenses today are on me! I'll also have the manager call over a dozen more girls for you! Just consider it an apology from Little Chao to Brother Biao and Boss Zhang." Li Chao adopted a very humble posture, speaking timidly.

"You've got some sense," Brother Biao nodded, satisfied, but then quickly shook his head. "A pity. Boss Zhang and I have already taken a liking to these girls. Besides, as for the escorts here, do I need your help finding them? Do you even have that right?"

"Brother Biao, I..."

Li Chao wanted to say more, but Zeng Biao cut him off impatiently. "Letting you boys leave is already giving your father an immense amount of face," he said coldly. "If you keep blabbering, none of you will be leaving!"

Li Chao was speechless.

The faces of the others turned ashen with dismay.

After a brief, heavy silence, Li Chao reluctantly turned around. With his head lowered, he said to Qin Mo and the others in a trembling voice, "I'm... I'm sorry! It's all Lu Hao's fault! I... I've done my best."

He didn't dare look at any of the girls, especially Qin Mo. After speaking, he prepared to slip away dejectedly. The other boys all subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, also ready to leave.

The remaining girls were left bewildered and panicked, their faces ashen. Although they were still university students, they weren't stupid. How could they not know what fate awaited them if they stayed?

Suddenly, the room was filled with mournful cries as the girls began to weep and beg.

As Li Chao passed them, he whispered, "I'll call the authorities as soon as I'm out. Once the constables get involved, they shouldn't dare to act so recklessly."

Just then, a voice that was both smiling and mocking suddenly rang out. "Well, well! Weren't you all acting so high and mighty just a moment ago? How have you all turned into such cowards now?"

Everyone looked over in astonishment.

They saw Chen Yang, his hands in his pockets, slowly walking up to Qin Mo and Fan Xiaoxian. He stared at the other boys with contempt. "You were the ones who invited these female classmates out. Now that a little trouble has come up, you're just going to abandon them in the wolves' den to save your own skins?"

Everyone hung their heads in shame. Although they were furious, they didn't dare to speak.

Li Chao's face was grim. He said coldly, "You shut up! I have my own way of handling this!"

Chen Yang ignored him, took two slow steps forward, glanced at Zeng Biao, and said nonchalantly, "This fatso started it by harassing someone. Getting hit just makes things even."

"I don't care about the others, but I have to take these two with me," Chen Yang declared, pointing at Qin Mo and Fan Xiaoxian.

"Chen Yang, what are you doing?" Qin Mo snapped. Once Li Chao called the authorities, the matter would have been resolved. His sudden interference might ruin their only chance.

"Reasoning with me? Haha!" Zeng Biao laughed as if he'd heard the funniest joke in the world. "This kid... he says he wants to reason with me?"

"Haha!"

Zhang Hai and Zeng Biao's underlings all erupted in laughter.

Reasoning with Brother Biao? That was hilarious, wasn't it?

"Kid, who do you think you are? Is this your place to speak?" Zeng Biao sneered.

"Me?" Chen Yang tilted his head, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "I'm someone you can't afford to provoke."

As soon as he said this, another wave of uproarious laughter filled the room.

Including Lu Hao and his friends, everyone stared at Chen Yang as if he were an idiot.

You have to pick your targets before acting tough! Why drag us into this mess?!

Li Chao's heart seized up. His face turned ghastly pale as he inwardly cursed Chen Yang's entire family tree.

Is this guy an idiot? He was genuinely terrified. There had been room to de-escalate the situation, but Chen Yang's outburst was a direct slap to Brother Biao's face. How could a man of his stature possibly swallow such an insult?

The other students were so scared their limbs trembled, barely able to stand. They couldn't imagine what would happen when Brother Biao's fury was completely unleashed.

"You're saying... I can't afford to provoke you?" Zeng Biao said, chewing on his cigar. He shook his head and chuckled softly. "I'd really like to see what you're capable of."

It was all over. Everyone despaired; the situation had spiraled completely out of control.

This useless trash! He has no ability, yet he dares to show off here? Even Li Chao was beaten and didn't dare to offend them openly, yet he just had to jump out? Hmph, he's more of a hindrance than a help! Qin Mo's hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her teeth grinding in frustration.

"Qing, break both his arms!" Zeng Biao gestured to a young man behind him.

"Yes, Boss Biao!"

Qing was a burly man. As he stepped forward, he exuded an intangible yet immense pressure. Without another word, he raised his fist. It was as large as a sandbag, and it whistled through the air as it flew toward Chen Yang's head. If that punch landed, it would surely split flesh.

Chen Yang shot out a kick, faster than the descending punch, striking Qing squarely in the abdomen.

BANG!!

To the astonishment of everyone watching, Qing was sent flying seven or eight meters, crashing onto the dance floor and coughing up mouthfuls of blood.

Qing's face twisted in pain. Just as he struggled to stand, he suddenly coughed up a torrent of blood.

Zeng Biao's expression changed dramatically.

As for the others, they stared with wide eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.

This useless bum who married into a family and lives off his wife... he actually has this kind of skill?

Under the shocked gazes of everyone present, Chen Yang walked up to Zeng Biao and sat down opposite him. "Since you don't plan on being reasonable, I naturally have my own ways of dealing with unreasonable people."
