Chapter 227: Chapter 228: Failing to Steal the Chicken
“Ah?” Xiao Lei was shocked.
“Don’t worry, we’ve already made the money back from them. So, there’s no need for you to worry,” Xiao Han said with a smile. “Maybe we can even make a little more money.”
“Hehe…” Xiao Lei chuckled.
At this moment, both sides had begun to confront each other.
Xiao Han’s lips curled into a sinister smile, and with a chuckle, he said, “Li Shan, don’t be shy, treat our incoming friends well.”
“Don’t worry,” Li Shan nodded. Then smilingly said, “Guests are guests, today we must show these brothers a bit of hospitality.”
“Fuck, don’t think we are scared of you,” the opponents roared angrily.
“Brothers, let’s fight them,” the leader, a sturdy man, took the lead by swinging a chair first and charged ahead. The others quickly surrounded them. The fight broke out immediately. The sturdy man blocked the opponent’s cleaver with a chair and swung his fists with his muscular arms. Several of Li Shan’s brothers were knocked down.
“Fuck!” Seeing this, Li Shan quickly charged forward, swinging his knife. How could he bear to see his brothers knocked down like this?
Li Shan charged forward and kicked the opponent’s chair. The sturdy man was immediately blown away by the immense force, chair and all, crashing hard against the wall and flying out.
“Ouch…” the sturdy man screamed in agony.
Rip…
At once, a lackey rushed forward, raised the cleaver in his hand, and viciously chopped at the opponent. The sharp cleaver tore through the opponent’s clothes, and in an instant, his steel blade sliced through the muscle. Blood gushed out like a fountain.
“Ah!” the sturdy man cried out.
That scream made the scene unbearable to witness. The situation was extremely gruesome. It wasn’t just the sturdy man who was stabbed. Everyone else was also knocked down and then hacked and stabbed, their screams continuous, turning the place into a veritable hell on earth, almost like a purgatory, unbearable to endure.
“Help, help!”
“Spare us, spare us!”
The opponents cried out, wailing like ghosts.
“Xiao Han, that’s enough, let’s not cause any deaths,” Xiao Lei, terrified, said from nearby. The situation was too horrifying and shocking.
“Okay,” Xiao Han nodded, “Since you say so, let’s stop.”
Then, Xiao Han waved his hand and said, “Li Shan, that’s enough.”
Only then did Li Shan have his brothers stop. The group retreated, and all ten opponents huddled in the corner, trembling and shaking. They were nothing like their previously arrogant selves but more like tamed dogs.
Xiao Han walked over slowly, then asked with a smile, “So, what do you think? Have you decided what to do next?”
“We’ll pay, we’ll pay!” the braided man said anxiously. “Big Brother, let’s just pay them.”
“Yes, pay!” the sturdy man nodded hastily.
“That’s more like it,” Xiao Han nodded, then said, “A total of thirty thousand. Are you planning to pay cash or by card?”
“By card, we don’t have that much cash!” the sturdy man said helplessly.
Xiao Lei quickly brought in the card machine, and the sturdy man swiped for thirty thousand yuan on the spot before leaving with his injured gang. The group was all battered. Although Li Shan and his men knew how to pull their punches and had just taught them a lesson without aiming for lethal blows, otherwise, those people wouldn’t have had enough lives to sacrifice.
After the group left, Li Shan smiled and said, “These types of people have no real combat power. Just scare them a bit, and they wet their pants.”
“Yeah!” Xiao Han nodded, “They came from out of town to scam us, they’re a professional scamming gang.”
“Hmm!” Li Shan nodded, “Most restaurants and diners would probably have given in, which is why they could succeed everywhere. They didn’t expect to trip up here.”
“Thanks, Big Brother Li,” Xiao Han smiled.
“Don’t mention it,” Li Shan quickly said, “It’s the least I could do.”
“Big Brother Li, do you want to get something to eat for your brothers?” Xiao Han asked.
“No,” Li Shan shook his head immediately, “I need to get going, can’t stay long. There are still things I need to take care of.”
“Okay!” Xiao Han nodded, “Then I’ll see you out!”
The group headed downstairs. Xiao Lei immediately called over a bunch of wait staff to start tidying up the private room. The private room was a mess, with tables and chairs all scattered around. It took a while to get the room back in order.
After seeing off Li Shan and others, Xiao Han also returned to the restaurant.
In the restaurant, many people were discussing the recent events. Fortunately, the incident hadn’t caused much of an impact, nor did anyone know what exactly had happened. Xiao Lei was still busy. It wasn’t until after two in the afternoon that the business gradually returned to normal. There were still quite a few people dining in the hall, but the waiting area at the entrance had no one left, as everyone had been seated.
“Xiao Han, they won’t come back again, will they?” Xiao Lei asked worriedly.
“No, they won’t!” Xiao Han shook his head and said, “If they dare come again, I will make sure it’s a one-way trip.”
“That’s good.” Liu Xiao nodded wearily. In her many years in the field, she had never encountered such shameless people. Although she had seen folks toss dead cockroaches into meals before, resolving such issues with a waived bill usually sufficed. These people, however, had the audacity to demand compensation. Clearly, they were attempting to swindle her.
As Liu Xiaolei held Xiao Han’s hand, she asked, “How do you know these people?”
“Do I have to say?” Xiao Han pursed his lips.
“You absolutely do.” Liu Xiaolei huffed, “You better not get too close to these people, or they’ll corrupt you sooner or later.”
“Hehe…” Xiao Han chuckled and replied, “I know, I definitely won’t let them corrupt me, don’t worry.”
“That’s good.” Liu Xiaolei nodded her head.
They were busy until three in the afternoon when they finally settled the matters. Xiao Han and Li Dapang drove back to Fuxing Community. Li Dapang followed gleefully because he wanted to drive, to drive a BMW, a BMW SUV no less—a truly magnificent vehicle. Not only was its performance top-notch, but it also rode incredibly well. Regardless, Li Dapang had truly fallen in love with this car.
After dropping Xiao Han off at Fuxing Community, Li Dapang chuckled and said, “Xiao Han, lend me the car this afternoon.”
“Okay!” Xiao Han nodded.
“Then I won’t be polite.” Saying this, Li Dapang immediately sped off.
Seeing Li Dapang’s excited demeanor, it was clear he wanted to drive to see Yang Xiaoyan. Unfortunately, Xiao Han was not optimistic about Li Dapang’s relationship with Yang Xiaoyan, nor about their future together.
Xiao Han’s smile turned sly as he coldly remarked, “Li Dapang, you rascal!”
……
The ten sturdy men who had been beaten up left the downtown area. A few men squatted down by a flower bed.
The man with braids forced a smile and said, “Big Brother, looks like we tried to steal a chicken only to lose our rice this time, huh?”

“Damn!” The leader of the sturdy men cursed, “Who would have expected this to happen.”
“Yeah, they brought so many people,” another man remarked.
“Are we just going to swallow this insult?” the braided man asked.
“What can we do?” the sturdy man responded, “They outnumber us and even have knives. Look at us, all injured. What can we do?”
“That’s right!” The others nodded in agreement.
Given the current situation, they definitely were no match for the other side. Moreover, they were outsiders, while the others were locals. As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon cannot suppress local snakes. Thus, the group felt somewhat intimidated and unsure of what to do.
Li Shan led his people back to the Millennium Headquarters.
Liu Si took a keen interest and asked about the event.
“Li Shan, how did it go?” Liu Si asked with a smile.
“Fourth Master, actually, even if we hadn’t gone, Xiao Han alone could have handled them,” Li Shan said cheerily.
“Oh?” Liu Si asked curiously, “What happened? Xiao Han was able to handle them?”
“Absolutely!” Li Shan chuckled and then said, “Xiao Han performed really well today. It’s obvious he can be quite ruthless.”
“Tell me about it!” Liu Si asked eagerly, his eyes narrowing with interest.
Liu Si was very intrigued by every move Xiao Han made. Li Shan cheerfully recounted the entire story to Liu Si, who listened with a surprised expression.
“Are you saying Xiao Han showed great courage!” Liu Si exclaimed in astonishment.
“Absolutely!” Li Shan nodded and then said, “This kid was really formidable this time. It’s the first time I saw him display such courage. Especially the moment he swung that bottle—it was awesome, just like you in your younger days, Big Brother.”
“Haha…” At this, Liu Si burst into laughter, “This kid is courageous; I really look up to him.”
“Yes!” Li Shan nodded and said, “I finally understand why you thought so highly of him before; there was a reason.”
“This kid has talent, ability, and courage,” Liu Si chuckled and said, “He’s definitely going to be a key figure in the future. So, it’s right for us to get close to him.”
“Yes!” Li Shan smiled and then said, “Xiao Han is indeed impressive.”
“Yes.” Liu Si nodded, “Indeed, he lives up to my expectations.”
“Fourth Master, are you planning to?” Li Shan curiously looked at Liu Si.
“For now, we’ll maintain good relations with Xiao Han,” Liu Si glanced at Li Shan and then said, “Xiao Han is really making a name for himself. Plus, he can bring us substantial benefits. That’s exactly what we like to see, right?”
