At the entrance of Tianxiang Pavilion.
About a dozen bodyguards who had received orders now had Lin Fan and Yang Linglong completely encircled.
With their sleeves rolled up, ready for action, they were just waiting for the manager’s command.
"Do you really think you can beat soone up here?"
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, eyeing the surrounding bodyguards.
They were rely following the manager’s orders, not inherently wicked.
"If you dare cause trouble in Tianxiang Pavilion, I wouldn’t mind teaching you a lesson with so rough handling,"
Liu Ruixi said, smirking.
He owed his position as the manager of Tianxiang Pavilion to a recomndation from Liu Mo’s father.
Therefore, he had to show his gratitude today by backing up Liu Mo.
"Do you really believe, with just one phone call, I could make you beg for permission to have a al inside?"
Lin Fan snorted coldly.
He was the lifesaver of the Qi Family, after all.
If they knew this man dared to stop him outside.
They would tear him apart on the spot.
"Bullshit! Who the hell do you think you are? Dressed like a beggar, what can you do besides talk big? With just one word from , I could have you kneeling and begging for rcy, believe it or not?"
Liu Mo said, curling his lip in disdain.
"Liu Mo, don’t go too far!"
Yang Linglong’s eyes widened in anger as she glared at Liu Mo.
At this mont, the others who had been attending the banquet had already co out.
They looked on at the scene in confusion.
"Linglong, I’m not going too far. It’s him who is useless, unable to even enter a restaurant and yet daring to spout such nonsense here. How can this kind of man compare to ? With such little capability, how can he protect you?"
Liu Mo, arms folded, looked at Lin Fan with a smirk of triumph.
"He can offer you more than you could ever imagine, and I’m warning you not to provoke him any further, or beware, he might get angry and tear this place apart,"
Yang Linglong retorted with a snort.
Lin Fan was, after all, the formidable Wolf King.
To him, these bodyguards were nothing.
"I’d like to see him try. Does he really think there’s no law in this world? I’ll say it right here, if he can find soone today to get to let him in, I’ll take his surna,"
Liu Ruixi said contemptuously, looking at Lin Fan, who was as drenched as a drowned rat.
He might not have the power elsewhere, but here in Tianxiang Pavilion, he did.
Especially now that the Qi family mbers were at the hospital for the arrival of the little princess.
He was the biggest authority in Tianxiang Pavilion at the mont.
"I don’t want you as a disloyal son, but you’ll regret your actions today,"
Lin Fan said as he pulled out his phone and dialed Qi Sijiang’s number.
Before the call connected, a commotion suddenly erupted from the yard behind him.
"It’s that man... the one soaking wet..."
"That’s right... It’s him, don’t let him get away..."
"Quick, grab him..."
A crowd of several dozen people surged in crazily, throwing the whole scene into chaos.
Everyone was unclear about what was happening.
They could only stare dumbfounded as Lin Fan was surrounded by a group of older n and won.
Among them, there were even reporters with caras.
The scene made Liu Mo break into a grin.
"Linglong, do you see? He is a fraudster, probably swindled these seniors out of their money, and now he’s been caught red-handed. Did you forget to wear your glasses when you chose your boyfriend?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
With the crowd making such a din, Yang Linglong, having been pushed out, had no idea what had happened.
She could only watch as a group of older n and won held on tightly to Lin Fan’s arms.
"I think Mr. Liu is right, he must be a swindler."
"Look at him; he doesn’t even look like a good person. Linglong, were you deceived by him?"
"Now it’s clear, caught red-handed!"
"Failure to heed the old’s advice leads to loss right before your eyes, which is why, when it cos to matters of life, one must rely on the vision of the elder generation."
These were people summoned by Liu Mo, who now mocked Lin Fan overwhelmingly.
Just when everyone was feeling smug, the words of a female reporter next to them caught them off guard.
"May I ask what motivated you, hero, to disregard your own safety and dive into the turbulent river to save a mother and child, knowing full well the river’s ferocity could cost lives?"
"If I must say what drove , it was the martyr’s certificate that fell. I couldn’t stand the thought of a hero’s soul bleeding for the country and then having to weep."
The conversation between the two of them almost made the entire incident crystal clear.
"Are you all deaf? Did you hear that? He’s a hero, he just saved two lives!"
Yang Linglong clenched her fists excitedly beside them.
"Liu Mo, didn’t you say you were the shit? Now go swim a lap in the river and I’ll marry you right away!"
"I... I can’t swim... I’m a landlubber... otherwise... I would have saved them too!"
Liu Mo suddenly beca speechless, only able to stutter out a response.
"Landlubber my ass, weren’t you the one who hung around all sumr long at the swimming pool last year, or have you forgotten? Show us how great you are and swim now, or shut the hell up!"
Yang Linglong, triumphant, pointed at Liu Mo.
This ti, he was thoroughly silenced.
"Hero, you are our role model. I will apply to the Foundation for Righteous Acts for a certificate of award for you, and if you have any difficulties in life, please let know."
The beautiful reporter looked at Lin Fan, her excitent evident.
She described him as remarkably brave just a mont ago.
"I don’t necessarily have difficulties, but I do have a little trouble. After I saved the people, my clothes shrank a bit, and the manager here wouldn’t let in to eat and even wanted to have soone beat up."
Lin Fan suddenly turned with a wronged expression, looking towards the dumbstruck Liu Ruixi.
With just this sentence, the crowd beca fiercely indignant.
"What place refuses service because clothes have shrunk?"
"Reporter, expose this corrupt shop imdiately, let the whole nation know their true colors!"
"You’re saring and belittling a hero!"
With these elders advocating justice and the presence of caras,
Liu Ruixi felt the world spin around him.
"No, no... It’s all a misunderstanding... How could we refuse service over a piece of clothing!"
Liu Ruixi, with sweat beading on his forehead, hastily approached.
Put lightly, it’s discrimination, deliberate hassle.
Put gravely, it’s bullying by the establishnt, a scandal in the making.
If things truly got out of hand, how could he, a re manager, withstand it?
"Just now, you were the one loudly declaring that those not properly clad, like dogs, would not be allowed in."
Yang Linglong pushed through the crowd and walked forward.
Her testimony stirred the crowd once more.
"Please go inside right away... I was really wrong... Is kneeling down not enough for you?"
Seeing that his shop might be smashed by these elders,
Liu Ruixi clutched at Lin Fan’s arm, pleading with tears in his eyes.
"Why do I feel your tears are fake?"
Lin Fan crossed his arms.
The power of the masses was indeed terrifying.
"How could it be fake, I’m truly sorry, I’ll never dare again. Please, out of pity for my elderly mother and my children who I need to support, spare this once."
Liu Ruixi begged almost despairingly.
He couldn’t afford to lose his job as a manager.
"Fine, but I warn you, don’t play any tricks on , or you’ll end up in a very sorry state," Lin Fan said with a cold smile.
He hadn’t yet played his trump card.
After explaining briefly to the onlooking crowd,
he took Yang Linglong’s hand and entered the shop.
