Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Wan looked at Brother Fang’s pleading manner and snorted coldly.
“Anything else you want to say?”
Brother Fang, with his mouth agape, desperately nodded his head.
Xia Wan eyed him and continued to ask: “Still think I need someone else’s help to deal with you?”
Brother Fang shook his head frantically, unable to comprehend how this seemingly gentle girl had so easily dislocated his joint.
Xia Wan glanced at the classmates nearby, some of whom had been less than friendly to her before, and they instinctively shrank back, seemingly afraid that Xia Wan would turn on them too.
Always quiet and reserved, Xia Wan had surprised everyone with her hidden skills.
Xia Wan calmly extended her hand towards Brother Fang.
Brother Fang instinctively stepped back, seemingly afraid that Xia Wan would dislocate another of his joints.
Xia Wan’s expression showed slight dissatisfaction: “Don’t want to talk anymore?”
Brother Fang paused, then quickly shook his head and leaned forward.
Xia Wan reached out, grasped Brother Fang’s chin and cheek, and with a click, realigned his jaw, allowing him to finally close his mouth.
Xia Wan disdainfully pulled out a handkerchief, vigorously wiped her hand, then casually threw the handkerchief into a trash bin outside a store.
At this point, Brother Fang was too concerned with escaping this place of trouble to care about Xia Wan’s disdainful actions.
“Miss, I’m scared of you, okay?” Brother Fang pleaded. “Let’s forget the past, okay?”
Xia Wan raised an eyebrow: “You think we can just forget the past, just like that? Aren’t you getting off too easy?”
Brother Fang’s expression tensed: “What else do you want?”
He was still nursing his unrecovered hand, looking at Xia Wan as if she was being unreasonable.
“I want you to never cause trouble on this street again. If I see you, I’ll hit you every time!” Xia Wan waved her fist at Brother Fang.
Brother Fang instinctively shrank back but then straightened up. “What right do you have to demand this from me?”
“This street isn’t yours! I can do whatever I want!”
Brother Fang was indignant but not without reason.
They relied on collecting protection money for their petty cash. Even the police couldn’t do much about them. If a young girl scared them off, how would they ever face their peers again?
Brother Fang looked outraged as if Xia Wan was cutting off his livelihood.
“So, you think I don’t have the right or ability to demand this from you?” Xia Wan’s expression turned cold, and she flexed her wrist.
Brother Fang’s wrist hurt even more, and he gritted his teeth. “You have the power! You have the right! Okay?”
“Remember your words!” Xia Wan said coldly. “Don’t let me see you bullying on this street again, and don’t go after my friends! Understand?”
Brother Fang glanced in Liu Hua’s direction.
Liu Hua immediately stepped back, her fear evident.
“Okay! I got it!” Brother Fang bit his teeth, deciding to swallow his pride for now.
“And one more thing…” Xia Wan continued.
“More?!” Brother Fang’s impatience was evident in his raised voice. Xia Wan raised an eyebrow: “What? Is that a problem?”
“Fine! Fine!” Brother Fang had lost his earlier aggressive demeanor.
“Return the money you’ve extorted from these stores!” Xia Wan nodded towards the shops. “I’ll let go of what happened before, but you must return today’s money to them!”
Brother Fang’s face turned even uglier. He stared at Xia Wan, unable to utter a word.
He knew Xia Wan was warning him and demonstrating her power. Xia Wan watched Brother Fang with a firm gaze, not showing the slightest retreat.
Brother Fang’s words came through clenched teeth: “I warn you not to go too far!”
The saying goes, even a cornered rabbit will bite!
Especially someone like Brother Fang, who had made a name for himself on the streets.
Seeing his reputation on this street at risk, and thinking about the humiliation of returning the extorted money to the shopkeepers, he felt utterly cornered. If he did return the money, how could he continue to collect protection fees in the future?
The more Brother Fang thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt.. In a fit of frustration, he raised his uninjured hand to strike at Xia Wan: “I can’t take it anymore! You’re being too bullying!”
