Chapter Thirty: The Furious Guo Ming

  Guo Ming took a step forward and sneered: "What a big shot! Is this what they call a little punk?"

  Guo Ming's words made those few young punks pause, and for a moment they stopped their intention to immediately take action. One of the girls, who was dressed in a seductive manner, even had a hint of surprise flash in her eyes. The leader looked at Guo Ming steadily, with a familiar feeling flashing across his eyes, and forced a smile: "Brother, who are you hanging out with? We're doing business here, don't forget to show some courtesy." He wasn't an idiot, and whoever dared to take the lead at this time must be someone with connections. If he offended someone he shouldn't have, even if he had people backing him up, it was unlikely that he could save himself.

  "This you don't need to know, now you only have two roads to choose from. One is to crawl out of here. Guo Ming walked up to the hooligan who was still wailing in front of him with a cold smile and said."

  Several people heard this and were furious, isn't this obviously bullying? It seems that the other party is just here to interfere, and there's no room for retreat. The rascal lying on the ground was also stunned, gritting his teeth to endure the pain, slowly getting up from the ground with a ferocious and cruel glint in his eyes, coldly saying: "Then you might as well say what the second option is?" As a man, being crippled by a delicate girl is already a humiliation. But now another man appears, seemingly ready to humiliate him again, how can he tolerate it? He has decided that no matter what background the other party has, today he must teach him a good lesson.

  The people around held their breath, anyone could see that this was just the calm before the storm, once Guo Ming said the second road it would be a big fight. Guo Ming did not disappoint him, directly using action instead of an answer, lightning-fast, grabbing his other hand, sneering: "Do you know the answer now?"

  The others were suddenly frightened, Guo Ming's speed was too fast, they only felt a flash in front of their eyes and their companion's hand had already reached his hand. Several people had also seen some big scenes before, and had even seen fighting masters, but those people couldn't be compared to Guo Ming at all, this was a difference in quality. They looked at the color on Guo Ming's face change from furious anger to terror, several of them looked at each other, not one person dared to make a move.

  That rascal felt the taste of his fingers almost breaking, and the last line of defense in his heart finally collapsed. He suddenly changed color and said: "Stop, stop, I only have this one hand."

  Looking at Guo Ming's nonchalant expression, his face turned even paler, and he choked out: "Please, I won't do it again." He was truly afraid now; the pain of having his fingers broken still lingered vividly in his mind, and even now it felt like a sharp ache that pierced to the bone.

  Guo Ming looked at the other person, who was crying and begging him with a runny nose. His heart softened, and he slowly let go of the other person's hand. The man was overjoyed and quickly pulled his hand back, as if afraid Guo Ming would change his mind. He thanked him repeatedly, saying "Thank you, thank you."

  "Get out! Guo Ming didn't want anything to do with him and said impatiently."

  "Alright, alright, let's go," the man said immediately.

  Guo Ming turned around and walked towards Chen Ziyu after hearing this, he really couldn't muster up the interest to teach these weaklings a lesson, there were too many people like them.

  Chen Ziyu gave Guo Ming a bad look, deliberately turning her head to avoid him. Suddenly, a flash of light flickered in her eyes, and she exclaimed: "Be careful behind you." Chen Ziyu was indeed a skilled martial artist, but she had not yet reached the level where she could see swords as nothing. Of course, if it were just herself, that would be fine, but Guo Ming only knew a little bit of martial arts. If he really got stabbed, she estimated that even if he didn't die, he'd at least lose half his life.

  At the same time, she rushed over quickly, wanting to save Guo Ming as much as possible. However, the distance between the two was tens of meters, and no matter how fast her speed was, it was still a drop in the bucket. Dazed, she seemed to see Guo Ming's blood splattering everywhere, and her speed increased again by several degrees, but this could not stop the steel knife that was about to pierce into Guo Ming's back.

  "I want you dead, that little rascal's eyes gleamed with brutal pleasure, his heart had been completely replaced by hatred. As if the next moment his enemy would die under his knife, his face was full of crazy smiles."

  The several little rascals around were even more frightened, they often did some fighting things, but killing people was something they didn't have the guts to do. In China, as long as no one is killed, everything can be easily settled, once it involves a murder case, the matter will be thoroughly blown up.

  As for the others in the restaurant, they were even more stunned, Old Guan stared blankly at all of this, instinctively feeling that his heart's blood had been drained, a homicide occurring in his own restaurant, and from now on, he might as well forget about doing business.

  At the moment when the man's steel knife was about to stab his own back, Guo Ming had already become alert. The strange anger in his heart made him think that he hadn't expected his repeated kindness would lead to such a result. If it were someone else, they might have been killed on the spot. Was this what they called repentance? Guo Ming let out a bitter laugh and shifted his body three feet to the left amidst the sparks of the flint. The crowd only felt a flash before their eyes, and in the next moment, they saw a scene that shocked them to the extreme.

  Guo Ming's right hand was pinching that man's left wrist, and the spring knife had already fallen to the ground with a "ding".

  The man seemed still unable to reflect on this sudden change, his face was exceptionally colorful with regret, violent anger and fear.

  A crisp sound came, the faces of the people around changed, and then they heard a wail that was three points higher than before. They looked at Guo Ming with an expression more terrifying than Chen Ziyu's. Chen Ziyu had only broken five fingers, but Guo Ming had snapped the man's wrist, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out, among which a bright red tendon and pale flesh were most prominent.

  Guo Ming looked at the remaining few people and said coldly: "Still not leaving?"

  Those people were startled and hastily set up the injured person to leave in a hurry. Before leaving, they didn't forget to take another look at Guo Ming.

  Chen Ziyu looked at Guo Ming and said softly: "You also hit too hard."

  "It's all because of you," Guo Ming said with a chuckle, "Who asked them to mess with you?"

  Chen Ziyu didn't respond to his words, but instead looked at him with a gentle gaze. She was still satisfied with Guo Ming's performance, and from his quick reaction earlier, she could tell that he had made significant progress in his martial arts training, at least reaching the level of being comparable to some of the young masters from noble families.

  Lao Guan slowly walked over, took a close look at Chen Ziyu and said: "You guys hurry up and leave, they might come back later."

  "Um, then the boss disturbed us. Chen Ziyu didn't feel anything wrong and took her small bag from the chair, ready to go out with Guo Ming. She wasn't afraid of him, but time was limited, and she still had to take Guo Ming to get dressed up."

  "Wait a minute," Guo Ming said helplessly, looking at Chen Ziyu who seemed unrelated to the matter.

  "What else is there? Time is running out, Chen Ziyu said inexplicably."

  "Boss, here's some money. These losses are on me," Guo Ming took out 1,000 yuan from his pocket, which he had specifically withdrawn from the bank card before going out with Chen Ziyu. He couldn't possibly go out without carrying some cash on him. In total, he had brought 2,000 yuan on him. After taking a look at the boss's losses, which were around 500-600 yuan, Guo Ming naturally didn't want to haggle with the boss and sincerely took out 1,000 yuan, feeling quite appreciative of what the boss had done.

  "No, no, I don't want to," Lao Guan hastily waved his hand in refusal.

  Guo Ming directly stuffed the money into Old Guan's hand, then tightly grasped his hand and said with a smile: "Boss, listen to my explanation. You must take this money, it's because of us that this happened, we have the responsibility to bear the loss. Moreover, making a profit from small business is not easy at all, my parents also started from scratch, I know how hard it is, so please accept it."

  Things have been said to this point, and Lao Guan is no longer pretending. He smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to be so young and yet understand so much. Alright, I'll take it. From now on, if you come to my store again, I'll give you an 80% discount."

  "Alright, it's settled then," said Guo Ming with a smile. "By the way, this is my phone number. If anything comes up in the future, just give me a call directly."

  "What's this?" Old Guan asked, puzzled. He was a bit confused, earlier he said 20% off, and Guo Ming said if he came often, both parties understood it was just a courtesy, this is Chinese etiquette. The Chinese emphasize politeness. After this incident, perhaps Guo Ming will almost never come here again, so what's the point of leaving his phone number?

  Guo Ming looked at him puzzled, Chen Ziyu's big eyes were staring at himself even more, so he had to clarify the situation, looking outside said: "Whether those people can repent or not in the future is unknown, if they still don't repent, they won't be able to find me, maybe they will use your small shop to vent their anger, although this possibility is small, it's better to prevent any chance. I don't want you to get involved because of my business. Maybe I don't have the ability to thoroughly solve the problem, but my parents will help you resolve everything."

  The boss nodded in approval, what a meticulous man. From Guo Ming's few words, he had already deduced several pieces of information: first, Guo Ming was not someone who considered others; during the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao once said "I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me". Guo Ming's personality was exactly the opposite - he did not want to owe anyone a favor. Such a person was definitely worth befriending. At the same time, his parents must be prominent figures in the county; otherwise, Guo Ming wouldn't have been so confident. Having figured this out, he reached out and took the phone number from Guo Ming's hand.
