Chapter 23: Anne of Green Gables

  Leaving Stefan's home in Nevada, Yi Fei Yang drove his second-hand car straight back to Los Angeles.

  Have to say, a used car is just a used car. Not only does it make creaking noises all the way, but also consumes a lot of oil.

  When Yi Feiyang drove the car to a gas station near his residence to refuel, the second-hand car's fuel tank was almost empty.

  Yi Feiyang was relieved that the car didn't break down halfway and leave him stranded in a remote area. He felt very grateful.

  The person who helped refuel was a black fat brother. The fat brother was very enthusiastic, and while refueling the car, he chatted with Yi Feiyang.

  "Hey buddy, looks like you didn't drive carefully, this car is almost smoking."

  I went on a trip to Nevada.

  "Nevada? The famous ghost state? Ha! You're really enthusiastic. I've always wanted to go, but never had the time."

  "Yes, many people are like this, having money but no time, or having time but no money."

  "Classic, I love that line." The black fat brother gave a thumbs up. "But when we travel, we also need to pay attention to safety and can't just step on the gas pedal and rush forward for the sake of time. For example, I have a buddy about your age, who went to Texas to attend the Terminator movie premiere party... Do you know Texas? That's where the chainsaw killer appeared..."

  "What's going on? Your buddy was killed by a chainsaw?"

  "No, he wasn't that lucky. The chainsaw killer isn't just going to kill anyone, it's all in the movies, most of the ones who get killed are beautiful women... My buddy was like you, his car started smoking halfway down the road, he thought it was out of gas, so he opened the oil tank to check, but it was nighttime, and to see clearly inside the oil tank, he took out a lighter... The result is predictable, he's not the Terminator or anything, boom! It exploded, and he was gone!"

  "Sorry, friend, I didn't mean to bring up your painful past."

  "It doesn't matter, I've told this story many times before. But what's important is that my friend had bought insurance, and it was a large sum! The insurance company was very kind, after figuring out the truth, they didn't say much and directly paid out..."

  "So, buddy, for your own and family's safety, for a future where your family can get some comfort, you must have the consciousness to buy insurance. One person insured, whole family happy! By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. Filling up gas at the gas station is just my hobby; actually, I'm the manager of American Good Deed Insurance Company... How about getting a full-coverage policy? Our company is currently doing great, and if you insure for 10,000, we'll give you 3,000 back!"

  Yi Feiyang: "!!!!!!"

  Just as Yi Feiyang was being persuaded by this passionate black fat brother to the point of crying and laughing, at the bus stop not far away, a few skateboarding punks were blocking a beautiful long-legged woman carrying a suitcase.

  That girl was a stranger to others, but Yi Feiyang saw her clearly. She was the granddaughter of his landlord, Annie-Hathaway.

  Now that roller skating is just popular, many young people who keep up with the trend like to wear roller skates and rush around the streets.

  In their words, it's called seeking stimulation, but to others, it's just a bunch of noise. These unruly youngsters don't care about any of that, and when they have nothing better to do, they form gangs and ride skateboards all over the streets, causing a ruckus everywhere.

  With a large suitcase in front of her, Anne Hathaway, who has a sweet appearance, was obviously targeted by these guys.

  One of the white boys, his face covered with acne, snatched her suitcase and yelled at her to throw it to him, he threw it back to her, teasing her mercilessly, but Annie was getting anxious to the point of tears.

  Those vicious street boys, seeing the beautiful girl almost in tears, laughed loudly and even opened the box to throw out the clothes one by one, including tops, pants, jackets, even bras, underwear, etc. All scattered on the ground.

  "Hey, pretty girl, pick them up! Your colorful clothes!" Acne roared.

  "Hey, look, buddy, there's even white underwear, so sexy!" a lewd-looking guy sneered.

  "Oh God, and this black bra, I love it!"

  ……

  Those vicious street urchins teased, ridiculed and even said some very dirty words. And the adults around not only didn't stop these scoundrels but also joined in to watch the show, watching a weak girl make a fool of herself.

  At that moment, Anne Hathaway felt so weak and powerless, so thin and helpless...

  As the leader of the street boys, Qingchun was steadily riding on his skateboard, teasing the extremely beautiful girl in front of him, when suddenly: "Hey, buddy, is this really fun?!"

  "What?!" The acne hadn't even reacted to who dared to call out so loudly, when he felt a pair of giant hands like pliers with magical powers lift him off the skateboard and slam him into the roadside sign!

  Bang!

  The acne on his forehead and the glass of the bus stop emitted a strong muffled collision sound.

  Glass shattered!

  Acne suddenly makes me dizzy and lightheaded, my skull feels like it's splitting open in pain.

  "Oh no, my head!"

  Acne clutched its head and squatted on the ground in unbearable pain.

  Other boys wanted to rush over to rescue him, but Yi Feiyang used his foot to kick the skateboard into his hand and shouted, "Who dares to come, I'll slap him to death!"

  That guy with a suspicious look on his face didn't believe it, and as soon as he took a step forward, Yi Fei Yang swung his skateboard and slapped it right onto his body. The poor guy was sent flying along with the skateboard!

  A terrifying blow!

  The little buddies were scared silly.

  Oh my god!

  That's ruthless!

  These young men normally just bullied the weak, to put it bluntly, they would snatch candy from kids, kick widows' doors, and bully honest people. They had never seen anyone tougher than themselves before, but when they saw Yi Fei Yang, they were all stunned into stupidity.

  With a single move, he stunned the enemy, and Yi Fei Yang lazily said, "Still not leaving?!" like a great general, waving his skateboard.

  In the midst of the loud shouting, those skateboarding youngsters shuddered all over and turned around to scurry away.

  "Come back!" Yì Fēi Yáng shouted, "Take them away!" pointing at the unlucky acne and buck-toothed, beady-eyed one.

  Those guys didn't dare disobey orders, hastily picking up their still wailing companions and turning to flee in a hurry.

  And to think that Annie-Hathaway didn't expect to run into Yi Feiyang here, let alone have him lend a helping hand. Anyway, the nightmare from just now has finally come to an end, but for a girl like her, she still can't shake off the lingering fear, her face still wearing a terrified and pitiful expression.
