Chapter 286: The Overbearing Noblewoman
Xiao Yun sat in the car, clearly observing what was happening in front of him. With his Spiritual Sense, he noticed that the Little Five, who was lying on the ground crying for help, had perfectly fine legs and had not sustained any injuries. Clearly, this was a typical case of staged injury; the little thug was trying to extort some money from the girl in the red dress.
Staged injury incidents are common in major cities across China. Generally, people tend to avoid such situations because these individuals are troublemakers; if they falsely accuse you, it can be nearly impossible to shake off the blame.
Xiao Yun was not the hero that others spoke of. He was too lazy to get involved in such matters; with just his own strength, he couldn't possibly handle it all. There were simply too many cases like this.
The problem was that the car owner was a young and beautiful girl. Xiao Yun suddenly felt a heavy burden on his shoulders. If he just stood by and watched a beautiful woman being bullied by thugs without intervening, could he still call himself human?
If this incident were to reach the ears of the women around him, how would they view him?
No, faced with a beautiful woman's predicament, as a Simple Good Young Man from the countryside, he could not just sit idly by.
As he watched those little thugs causing more and more chaos, fueled by anger for the sake of beauty, Xiao Yun opened the car door and was about to step forward to perform his heroic act of saving her. Unexpectedly, a man rushed out from the roadside and punched one of the thugs away before he could intervene.
Damn!
Someone actually beat him to it!
"This beauty is mine! I dare any of you to touch her!" The man's assertive words made Xiao Yun's heart ache instantly. Why did that tone sound so familiar?
Wait a minute, wasn't that something I often say?
How can others say such classic lines?
I didn't expect that the girl in red called that man "cousin." It turns out they are relatives. Xiao Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems that I still have a chance to pursue this beauty.
Xiao Yun looked at the man's face and suddenly his eyes lit up, grinning. Hey, how could it be him?
— Niu Tian!
What a copycat! No wonder that tone sounded so familiar; it turns out this guy has been secretly imitating my words and actions!
With Niu Tian's appearance, an indescribable eerie and strange aura spread around. The few small thugs couldn't help but shiver. Tilted Head, being the leader among them, glanced at the fierce gaze of the man suddenly appearing before him. He wanted to retreat but was afraid of losing face; how could he continue to act tough in front of them in the future?
"Damn it, where did you crawl out from, you bastard? Dare to meddle in my business!" Weirdo bravely spoke out.
Smack!
Without saying a word, Niu Tian slapped Tilted Head on the forehead.
Tilted Head spun on the ground twice, his eyes filled with stars, completely disoriented.
"Fuck you, how dare you hit me? Are you looking for death?" Tilted Head stumbled but still tried to act tough.
Smack! Smack!
Bang!
Niu Tian delivered another hard slap, followed by a kick that landed squarely.
This Niu Tian didn't say much; he just struck with fierce blows.
"Ah—" Weirdo let out a miserable scream as he fell onto the street five meters away.
Creaking to a halt, a car pulled up right next to Weirdo. A Black-faced Brute jumped out and shouted angrily, "Damn it, are you trying to play acrobat? Don't drag me down with you if you want to die!"
Bang bang!
Seeing this, the Black-faced Brute wasn't one to back down either. He raised his leg and kicked Weirdo twice.
At this point, Weirdo had truly hit rock bottom, rolling away on the street like a ball, unable to even cry out.
The onlookers were all wide-eyed, as if they had swallowed a whole cooked chicken, staring at the scene in disbelief.
A few thugs surrounding Niu Tian were also stunned. Little Five, who was pretending to be dead on the ground, suddenly scrambled up and tried to escape. Niu Tian leaped forward and grabbed him by the collar, lifting him up and demanding, "Weren't your legs broken?"
"Big brother, I'm... I'm sorry! I was just pretending!" Little Five was so scared that snot and tears were streaming down his face.
Niu Tian let out a cold laugh. "Pretending?"
"Yes, yes, yes..."
"Alright, I'll make a fake into reality!"
Bang!
Niu Tian kicked the guy's leg, and with a crack, the sound of a broken bone echoed. Little Five lay on the ground, clutching his leg and crying loudly, "My leg is broken, it's really broken..."
Niu Tian's violence sent shivers down the spines of the onlookers. The few thugs who had initially thought about running all suddenly knelt before him, trembling as they said, "Big Brother, please spare us. We won't dare again..."
Being a girl with a soft heart, the girl in red grabbed Niu Tian and said, "Cousin, don't hit them anymore. Let them go!"
Niu Tian glanced at the girl in red, and the fierce look on his face was quickly replaced by a simple smile, along with the powerful Qi Mechanism that surrounded him disappearing.
He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"
The thugs kneeling on the ground felt as if they had received a pardon and immediately scrambled away like rabbits.
"Cousin, get in the car with me. I'll treat you to a meal!" The girl in red pulled Niu Tian towards a red Ferrari sports car.
"No need, maybe another day!" Niu Tian declined.
"Why not go when there's a beautiful girl treating you?" A sudden laugh came from beside them.
Niu Tian turned around and immediately recognized Xiao Yun, exclaiming in delight, "Ah! It's Brother Xiao! What are you doing here?"
Xiao Yun sighed with a look of regret, "Alas, Brother Niu, you're too inconsiderate. I was just passing by and was ready to be the hero saving the beauty. I didn't expect you to take the lead. How can I face her now?"
His words made the girl in the red dress giggle charmingly and say, "How about this? Since you are friends with my cousin, I invite you both to dinner!"
"Sure! Eating with a beautiful girl is definitely a happy thing!" Xiao Yun immediately chimed in.
Xiao Yun then turned to Niu Tian and asked, "Do you want to come along?"
From his tone, it sounded as if the Red-Dressed Girl was inviting him alone for dinner.
"Uh, then let's go!"
Niu Tian dared not decline. He was worried that his naive cousin might be deceived by Xiao Yun's sweet talk.
At that moment, the girl in red drove ahead to lead the way, while Niu Tian got into Xiao Yun's car and followed behind.
"Brother Niu, how has Sister Miao Zhen been lately?" Xiao Yun asked with a smile.
Miao Zhen was Niu Tian's wife, known for her flirtatious nature. Ever since Xiao Yun helped her with Bone Drawing, the couple had truly rekindled their romance.
"Good, of course! Speaking of which, I don't even know how to repay you!"
Niu Tian said with a silly grin, "This is all thanks to Brother Xiao. If it weren't for you, I don't even know if our family would still be intact!"
Xiao Yun laughed and said, "We're brothers; there's no need to be polite. By the way, since Haitian Company went under, Sister Miao Zhen isn't working anymore, right?" Haitian Company was run by Cheng Yuanzhao and was also known as Cosmic Enterprises Limited.
"Not anymore. She's at home. It's not like I can't support her; as long as she can take good care of me when I get home!" Niu Tian replied.
Xiao Yun said, "Haha, how can a big man like you be served?"
Niu Tian replied, "Of course, it's in bed! You don't know, my woman is very skilled at serving men in bed. I tell you, every time she leaves me feeling ecstatic..."
This guy had no filter; when it came to this topic, he was animated and full of energy.
While joking around, the car stopped in front of a hotel. Xiao Yun got out and looked up at the hotel sign, which read: Heaven's End Hotel.
The girl in red walked ahead, and two receptionists immediately greeted her respectfully, saying, "Welcome, Miss Xia!"
Xiao Yun then realized that the girl in red's surname was Xia, indicating she was a regular here.
A woman who looked like the lobby manager approached with a smile and said, "Miss Xia, it's been a long time since we last saw you. Are you bringing friends today?"
Miss Xia turned around and pulled Niu Tian and Xiao Yun closer, saying, "Sister Han, these two are my brothers. I'm treating them to dinner today; please arrange a nice private room for us!"
"Sure!" Sister Han replied with a beaming smile.
Then Sister Han instructed a nearby waitress, "Xiao Hong, take Miss Xia to the Imperial Consort Hall on the Sixth Floor!"
"Wait! I want the Imperial Consort Hall!" At that moment, a domineering female voice interrupted.
Everyone turned to see a woman walking in from the entrance. She appeared to be around thirty years old, wearing a light yellow short-sleeved shirt on top and a knee-length black tube skirt. On her feet were long red high-heeled boots. She wore heavy makeup, adorned with a gold necklace and jade bracelets, exuding an air of luxury. A long white cape draped over her shoulders, almost trailing on the ground.
Her skin was fair, her eyes round, and she had a voluptuous figure with a large chest and curvy hips, resembling a ripe red apple.
Behind her were two little followers, the type of men one would call "Pretty Boys."
The manager approached with a forced smile and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Xia arrived first, and we have already arranged the Imperial Consort Hall for her. Could this lady please choose another private room?"
"No way, I want the Imperial Consort Hall! I've reserved it!" The woman didn't even glance at the manager, raising her chin arrogantly.
It was clear she was a wealthy lady and quite domineering.
Miss Xia seemed displeased. She stepped in front of the noblewoman, pouting her red lips and playfully said, "Madam, why are you trying to take the Imperial Consort Hall from me?"
The word "Madam" seemed to leave the noblewoman momentarily stunned; it was as if no one had ever called her that before!
Xiao Yun and Niu Tian both felt that Miss Xia was being quite mischievous. The noblewoman looked to be around thirty; how could she be called "Madam"? That was rather cheeky!
It seemed to take the noblewoman a moment to regain her composure. She immediately jumped up as if mad and shouted, "How dare you call me Madam? Are you blind? I'm still in my prime! How could you say I'm old? Little Girl, you should find out who I have backing me. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll make sure you come in standing and leave crawling!"
