Chapter 94: Chapter 94 A Resolute Man
"Beat him up!" Wang Guibin shouted loudly. Two bodyguards rushed forward first, and he, along with two other friends, also charged up. Five n pouncing on one; it was a beatdown with absolutely no danger. They naturally had no qualms whatsoever.
He had done this kind of thing before, having bodyguards thrash the opponent until they were unable to fight back, and then he would step in. This way, he could fully reveal his so-called heroism.
A beauty like Su ngxin was simply too captivating. With Su ngxin present, he had forgotten about ng Xiaofei’s existence. And since Su ngxin enjoyed watching fights, he was even more eager to show off, hoping to win the heart of the beautiful girl.
He even imagined how Su ngxin would look at him with admiration, how she would throw herself into his arms, and how he would enjoy the company of this beauty.
Expectations are beautiful, but reality is harsh—so harsh that it’s not just atless, it’s even without skin. He didn’t even see what happened before he saw two shadows fly over his head, and then Li Yifei’s face suddenly appeared in front of him.
He hadn’t even uttered a scream before a large hand had made close contact with his face twice. The trendous impact caused his body to uncontrollably turn first to the left, then to the right. His head buzzed with noise, stars danced before his eyes, and his brain went nearly blank. Then, he plopped down to the ground.
The fight was too fast. In less than fifteen seconds, five n were already on the ground. ng Xiaofei was dumbfounded. This was nothing like she had imagined. Li Yifei was supposed to be the one getting beaten, but now all five n lay on the ground.
Su ngxin’s eyes glead as she watched. She loved seeing Li Yifei’s display of heroism. Looking at Li Yifei’s back, she was once again reminded of the jungle incident. It was this back that carried her through a barrage of bullets, this back that took a potentially fatal bullet for her. As she watched, she beca infatuated.
Li Yifei turned around at that mont, and Su ngxin’s face returned to normal. She smiled at Li Yifei and said, "These guys really can’t take a punch."
Li Yifei glared at her, sowhat annoyed, and then said to ng Xiaofei, "Let’s go, we’re heading back."
ng Xiaofei followed Li Yifei outside in a daze, with Su ngxin trailing behind them. It was only then that Wang Guibin ca to his senses. Struggling to stand up, he cursed loudly, "Fuck, you dare hit ? I’ll fucking kill you!"
Li Yifei suddenly turned his head back, his cold stare fixating on Wang Guibin. Wang Guibin felt like prey under the gaze of a venomous predator, breaking out in goosebumps. Instinctively, he took a step back, tripping over a friend’s leg, yelping as he fell into an embarrassingly sprawled position.
By the ti he managed to get up again, Li Yifei and the other two were nowhere to be seen.
"Who the hell is that guy?" Wang Guibin thundered, demanding an answer from ng Xiaofei’s two colleagues.
"We don’t know him either. We’ve never seen him before," the two replied in unison, equally terrified by what had just happened.
A bodyguard struggled to his feet, whispering, "Young Master Wang, he must be that woman’s neighbor. That’s what they said just now."
"Fucking hell, so neighbor thinks he’s all that. I’m not going to let this go; I’m going to ruin him, goddamn it," Wang Guibin fud even more as he cursed loudly.
The two bodyguards felt bitter inside. They had no idea Li Yifei would be so formidable. They didn’t even see how he moved before they were knocked down.
"Young Master Wang, this guy must be a master."
"No shit, do I not know he’s a master? But no matter how skilled he is, I refuse to believe I can’t take him down," Wang Guibin raged on. He didn’t fear masters; in a head-on clash, a master could cost him, but as long as Li Yifei had neither power nor influence, Wang Guibin wouldn’t take him seriously.
By this ti, Li Yifei had already taken ng Xiaofei back ho. Su ngxin and ng Xiaofei both sat on the couch in his ho, while Li Yifei crouched beside ng Xiaofei, treating the wound on her hand.
ng Xiaofei grimaced with tears swirling in her eyes and complained, "Brother Li, be gentle, it hurts."
Li Yifei gripped ng Xiaofei’s wrist firmly, preventing any movent, "You’ll have to bear with it. If I don’t get the glass out, you’ll have to go to the hospital and have a nurse do this."
"But it really hurts."
"You’re feeling it now? Why didn’t you think of that when you were fighting?"
"Back then, all I could think about was how to fight back, so I didn’t feel the pain," ng Xiaofei sulked, pouting her lips.
"You’re quite sothing, fighting against three n," Li Yifei expressed his admiration.
"Yeah, I’m tough. When I was little, I’d fight with the boys, and they couldn’t beat . But after middle school, I couldn’t beat them anymore."
Li Yifei and Su ngxin both chuckled. The girl had a comndable past.
Li Yifei quickly treated ng Xiaofei’s wounds. He was adept at this; on previous missions, whether it was him or his comrades, injuries were common, so basic treatnt was essential.
ng Xiaofei lifted her hand to inspect it, "Not bad. You know, Brother Li, you’d make a good nurse. I bet lots of pretty girls would want your services."
Li Yifei rolled his eyes and retorted, "Why does that not sound right to ?"
ng Xiaofei chuckled and said, "Really, isn’t this what everyone cares about now? Like those won’s clubs, all their waiters are handso young n."
Li Yifei gave ng Xiaofei a stern look and said, "I really shouldn’t bother with you, coming back and still daring to talk about
like that."
ng Xiaofei stuck out her tongue cutely and said, "Sorry, Brother Li, I’m genuinely grateful to you. Here, you’re the only one I can ask for help, and thankfully you’re so dependable."
At this mont, Su ngxin asked, "Don’t you have any family around here?"
ng Xiaofei pouted and replied, "Both my parents have passed away, now I’m all by myself."
Su ngxin imdiately said with remorse, "I’m sorry, I didn’t know your parents had passed away."
ng Xiaofei wasn’t heartbroken, just a bit gloomy, but quickly let out a light laugh and said, "It’s okay, at first I was really sad, but now I don’t think about them as much. They have each other’s company over there, and I’m young, I can take care of myself."
ng Xiaofei then stared at Su ngxin and said, "Sister Su, you’re really beautiful, definitely the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. Compared to you, those big stars are just weak."
Su ngxin glanced at Li Yifei and smiled as she said, "Being beautiful isn’t all that advantageous, it can bring a lot of trouble."
ng Xiaofei nodded vigorously and said with deep agreent, "Right, right, it’s such a hassle now."
Li Yifei then stood up and said, "Alright, have the two of you chatted enough? If you’ve had your fill of chat, then go back to your own hos, don’t stick around here."
ng Xiaofei imdiately pouted and said, "Brother Li, look, my hand is injured, and I definitely won’t be able to cook tonight. Could you let
have a al here?"
Li Yifei looked at ng Xiaofei with a mix of irritation and amusent and asked, "Have you ever cooked for yourself?"
"Does making instant noodles count?"
"What do you think?"
"Then I guess I haven’t..." ng Xiaofei said, unabashedly grinning and cheekily saying to Li Yifei, "Brother Li, help
out will you? How about I mooch als from your place for the next couple of days?"
"Never seen anyone as thick-skinned as you," Li Yifei scolded with a laugh.
Su ngxin imdiately squinted her eyes and said, "Can I count myself in too? I also can’t cook."
Li Yifei was rendered sowhat speechless, these two neighbors sure knew how to take advantage, treating his place like a cafeteria.
Su ngxin playfully laughed and said, "Hehe, I won’t eat for free, I’ll pay for the als."
Li Yifei extended his hand and said, "That’s more like it, a hundred a day, pay per day, fair and square."
Just as Su ngxin was about to agree, ng Xiaofei already exclaid, "Brother Li, you’re such a rip-off, that’s so expensive."
Li Yifei said, proudly smiling, "You can choose not to eat, right?"
"But I’m already out of money," pouted ng Xiaofei.
"Weren’t you just about to get your salary?" Li Yifei widened his eyes; the last ti he saw ng Xiaofei, she had ntioned her salary was due in a few days, and it had already been over a week. The airline company she worked for was doing well, and it was unlikely that they would delay paying salaries.
ng Xiaofei stuck her tongue out and said, "I lent it to a coworker. She had so urgent family matters and needed money."
"Have you thought about how you’ll manage to live afterwards?"
"I... I was thinking of borrowing so from you," ng Xiaofei said, her face reddening truly now.
Li Yifei was completely defeated by ng Xiaofei. This girl not only wanted to scrounge for food and drink from him but also wanted to borrow money.
Su ngxin chuckled and said, "Xiaofei, I’m your neighbor too. If you’re really in need of money, I can lend you so."
"Really? That would be great!" ng Xiaofei imdiately cried out excitedly, but then quickly stuck out her tongue, looking embarrassed as she said, "I should still borrow from Brother Li."
Su ngxin, who was sharp as a tack, realized ng Xiaofei’s words ant that she regarded Li Yifei as closer to her heart.
If it were any ordinary woman, she would feel uncomfortable seeing the good relationship between Li Yifei and ng Xiaofei, but Su ngxin didn’t think that way. It was rare for her to like a man, and if he were too ordinary, it would disappoint her. Now it seed that even though Li Yifei was just a junior employee at a company, he could still attract won, and not just any won, but beauties like ng Xiaofei and Xu Yingying, indicating she hadn’t misjudged him.
Xu Yingying was still unaware that she had been categorized by Su ngxin as soone who liked Li Yifei. One could only wonder what she thought about that.
