Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Home Wrecked _1
Ye Ming’s heart raced with panic, knowing something had gone wrong. With a push of his feet, he hurried up the stairs.
What he saw was the wide-open door of his home, and the room was already in disarray.
Furniture was smashed, the television was shattered into pieces, and clothes were thrown about on the floor carelessly.
Jiang Rou, pale with anger, said furiously, "This is my house, you come here and smash my things at will, and then tell me to move out, I won’t just file a complaint against you, I’ll call the police and have you arrested!"
Standing opposite Jiang Rou was the house’s previous owner, Liu Peng.
He owned more than thirty properties and was a textbook case of a property mogul.
Initially, because he offered a fair price, Jiang Rou decided to rent his house.
But unexpectedly, today Liu Peng suddenly brought people over, intending to drive out Jiang Rou and her son, Ye Ming.
Jiang Rou had only asked for the reason when Liu Peng starting cursing at her, and even brought a group of strong men over to wreck Ye Ming’s home into utter ruin.
"File a complaint? Call the police? Who the hell do you think you are, thinking you’re so tough?"
Liu Peng said with a fearless look on his face, "The house is mine, I decide how it’s managed, who do you think you are?"
"Go ahead, call the cops now if you dare, I want to see who would dare to stop me!"
Jiang Rou, trembling with anger, reached for her phone to make the call.
Quick as lightning, Liu Peng snatched Jiang Rou’s phone and viciously smashed it to the ground.
"Go on, keep it up, let’s see what else you can do!"
"Pack your things and get out, quietly. Consider the rent as an advance on the utilities fee. If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being rude!"
Facing such unfair treatment, Jiang Rou naturally felt aggrieved.
She just wanted an explanation, but faced with such treatment, she could not accept it.
"You’re just bullying people!"
Jiang Rou’s eyes were red with anger, yet as a woman alone without the strength to fight back, she could only withstand the humiliation imposed on her.
Liu Peng chuckled and said, "Not only am I bullying you today, but if you don’t get out now, I’m going to start hitting!"
"I’m giving you to the count of three—if you’re not gone by then, don’t blame me for not being polite!"
"Three!"
"Two!"
Liu Peng had already raised his hand, a fierce look on his face, ready to hit Jiang Rou.
Yet, just as he started counting, his body suddenly flew uncontrollably outwards, crashing hard against the door.
The sudden upheaval took everyone by surprise.
Looking closely, Ye Ming had appeared at some point, his hands still holding two large bags of herbs.
"Liu Peng, are you asking for death?" Ye Ming asked.
Liu Peng struggled to his feet, trembling, unable to help spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He had not expected Ye Ming to have such great strength and his eyes filled with a touch of wariness.
However, he still had his men around. After a slight hesitation, he said, "Ye Ming, you motherfucker actually dared to hit me! You’ve come back at just the right time, today I’ll deal with you and your mother together!"
"Get him!"
At his command, the musclemen who had been smashing up the place stepped out, surrounding Ye Ming and his mother.
Jiang Rou was truly frightened and quickly tugged at Ye Ming’s sleeve, saying, "Son, let’s just drop it, they have more people."
Seeing the muscular men, each one towering over Ye Ming, Jiang Rou feared her son getting hurt and thus spoke out.
Ye Ming comforted his mother, "Mom, don’t be afraid, just stay behind me."
Turning his head, Ye Ming then said to Liu Peng, "Restore everything to how it was before you smashed it up, or else don’t blame me for not being polite!"
Liu Peng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, showing a wry smile.
"Ye Ming, first take a look at your own situation before speaking. Whether you can even walk out of here alive is what you should be considering!"
"Damn it, from childhood to adulthood I’ve only ever beaten others, never been beaten myself. Today, I must have an explanation!"
"Attack!"
Upon receiving the command, the brutes immediately charged over.
Ye Ming held the bags in both hands and only used his legs to meet his enemies.
Despite this, he didn’t lose the upper hand.
In the blink of an eye, all the brutes had fallen to the ground, wailing incessantly.
In the cramped space, the brutes had no avenue to escape, making it very convenient for Ye Ming; knocking them down with a single kick wasn’t a problem.
The extraordinary skill he displayed made Liu Peng’s eyes widen in shock and disbelief.
"How is this possible, are you even human?"
Exploding with rage, Liu Peng cursed as he continuously backed away, planning to slip away unnoticed.
Ye Ming didn’t give him the chance, landing a kick straight on Liu Peng’s knee.
With a thud, Liu Peng fell to his knees in front of Ye Ming and Jiang Rou, unable to stand from the pain.
Knowing he was thoroughly defeated, Liu Peng laid out the facts: "Ye Ming, I’m telling you, you still have time to run. These guys are all Scarface’s men. Having hit them, you’re not far from death!"
"The only way to live is to apologize to me!"
Ye Ming looked at him coldly, without a hint of fear, and said, "Liu Peng, do you know what it means to beat someone until they stop being stubborn?"
Having said that, Ye Ming kicked out fiercely, striking Liu Peng’s cheek.
In an instant, Liu Peng’s face turned into a pig’s head, completely disfigured, to the point where he couldn’t even speak clearly.
After finishing, Ye Ming called Scarface’s number.
Ten minutes later, Scarface arrived in person.
Seeing the scene before him, he went weak at the knees.
"Mr. Ye, rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation!" Without waiting for Ye Ming to speak, Scarface already knew what to do.
After some questioning, Scarface found out that his men had been bribed with a large sum to act as Liu Peng’s thugs.
Their goal was to smash up Ye Ming’s house.
"Damn it, how do I usually teach you guys? You can’t just take any money that’s offered!"
"Come here and apologize to Brother Ming immediately!" Scarface said furiously.
The muscular men, who had been lying on the floor wailing, now forced themselves up, addressing Ye Ming respectfully one after another.
Liu Peng was completely dumbfounded; the turn of events had gone beyond his expectations. What was happening before his eyes was the last straw that broke him.
He hurriedly began to plead, "Brother Ming, I was blind and ignorant, utterly shameless! I..."
"Please don’t hold it against me; I beg you, let me off!"
Liu Peng was well aware that saving face was pointless at this time; figuring out how to stay alive was what he needed to consider.
As he spoke, his hands did not stop, furiously slapping his own face. Just a few minutes later, the other side of his face was swollen, and he had become a complete pighead.
