Chapter 821: Chapter 820: Better Not to Provoke

Tong Xiaohua had been feeling terrible these past few days. Just a few afternoons ago, her dad suddenly said that once she turned eighteen, the entire Tong Family business would be handed over to her.

Even she couldn’t remember how old she was when her dad started grooming her as his successor.

All she remembered was that ever since that day, her life, which had been like that of a princess, felt like it had plunged into hell.

As she gradually adapted to various intense training sessions, her dad started taking her to different business locations owned by the Tong Family.

She thought she would always be her dad’s lackey until he got old. So, it never crossed her mind that one day she would actually be pushed into the Tong Family’s top position.

To be honest, she didn’t want to sit in that spot.

Thus, after hearing her dad finish speaking, Tong Xiaohua threw down the words "I don’t want to do it!" slammed the door, and ran out.

She was a member of the Boxing Club. After running out of Tong village, she typically vented her frustrations at the boxing gym.

However, this time her accumulated resentment was too heavy. Merely playing around with the club members couldn’t dispel the gloom in her heart, so she told the manager she wanted something more exciting.

"Brother Xiao, I want to fight in a match tonight."

Anyone who came to play at the boxing gym knew that after night fell, there would be boxing matches every night. Boxers would earn their pay based on the bets placed by the audience and the corresponding odds.

Naturally, Tong Xiaohua didn’t care about the money. She just wanted some intense stimulation to drive away the gloom in her heart.

As for whether she would beat someone up badly, or get beaten up herself, she didn’t care.

"Xiao Hua sister, are you sure?"

The manager was surprised; although he was a full cycle older than her, he never dared to underestimate her or call her by name, out of respect for her status.

"Hmm!" Tong Xiaohua nodded with certainty.

"But... but..." The manager stammered, unable to continue.

"But what?" Tong Xiaohua delivered a side kick, sending the punching bag in front of her swinging.

"Xiao Hua sister, the matches are brutal... if you get hurt..."

The manager could not afford to offend someone like Mr. Tong!

The punching bag swung back toward her, and with a swing of her fist, Tong Xiaohua sent it flying again.

"It’s fine, I will sign a waiver."

Although Tong Xiaohua had never fought in a match, she had watched plenty, and she knew that every boxer who stepped into the ring had to sign a waiver accepting responsibility for any injuries.

Even so, the manager was very reluctant to let her fight.

Fortunately for him, Tong Xiaohua’s boxing skills were higher than those of a few female boxers who were regulars at the gym, so he did not have to worry much about her getting beaten.

However, after her first match, Tong Xiaohua glanced at the female boxer standing opposite her and turned to the manager, "Bring on a male boxer!"

The manager really wanted to kneel down and call her "Ancestor" right then and there!

Was she truly here to support the gym, or was she trying to ruin him?

In L City, who didn’t know that Mr. Tong had only one precious daughter, Tong Xiaohua? If anything happened to her at his place, could Mr. Tong let him off the hook?

"Xiao Hua sister, look, this..."

The manager wanted to say, Miss Xiao Hua, just take it easy, please don’t make it difficult for me.

But how could the Miss of the Tong Family sympathize with his plight? With a fierce glare, she threatened, "Or perhaps I should have someone take care of your business, Manager Xiao?"

Manager Xiao had no choice but to look for a relatively weaker male boxer to replace the female boxer who was up against Tong Xiaohua on the stage.

Although the audience was captivated by Tong Xiaohua’s beauty and perfect physique, ultimately, men and women have different physical abilities. As a result, the Boxing Gym offered very high odds for Tong Xiaohua’s win on the first night.

On that first night, Tong Xiaohua shocked the audience. In just a few moves, she knocked a seemingly robust male boxer to the ground.

The second night, Manager Xiao reluctantly sent in a medium-strength male boxer, who, likewise, fell to Tong Xiaohua.

Now, it was Tong Xiaohua’s third match at the Boxing Gym. Before Yan Bo and Ling Qingyun arrived, she had been locked in a stalemate with a male boxer of comparable strength for quite some time.

Just then, during the moment Yan Bo and Ling Qingyun muttered to each other in the audience seats, Tong Xiaohua exploited the male boxer’s weakness, landing a punch at an incredibly tricky angle. The man couldn’t dodge in time and was struck on the head, falling to the ground with a "thud."

Yan Bo, who had wanted to ask Ling Qingyun something, suddenly heard cheers erupting. When he focused his gaze, he saw the male boxer clutching his head, kneeling on the ground.

Yan Bo’s lips curved into a smirk of interest. It seemed that this female boxer named Tong Xiaohua was not only skilled in combat but also clever in mind!

The referee on the stage raised the female boxer’s hand, officially declaring her victory!

After the result was announced, the female boxer took the towel passed to her by the Assistant, coolly flicked it around, and wrapped it neatly over her shoulders and body before turning and stepping off the stage.

"Young Master Ling, please tell Manager Xiao, I would like to see the boxer."

Until then, Yan Bo was still unaware of why Ling Qingyun and Manager Xiao had such an inscrutable look when they talked about this female boxer.

Ling Qingyun, of course, knew that the ’boxer’ Yan Bo wanted to see was none other than Tong Xiaohua.

"Young Master Yan, I think... it’s better not to," Ling Qingyun said, standing in place with difficulty, unwilling to move.

At this moment, he deeply regretted taking Yan Bo to the Boxing Gym.

"Then I’ll call him myself!"

Despite his gentle appearance, Yan Bo was decisive in his actions. As he spoke, he had already taken out his phone, holding Manager Xiao’s business card in hand.

Ling Qingyun, now quite afraid of him, pressed down on Yan Bo’s hand, which was about to dial the phone, and tugged at him to head toward the exit.

Some things were not suitable for discussion in a public setting.

Yan Bo was forcefully pulled by Ling Qingyun to the outside corridor, and the iron door behind them shut with a loud bang. In the corridor, all was silent.

"Young Master Yan, I can introduce you to anything you want, but it’s best not to get involved with that Miss of the Tong Family!"

The business of Ling Qingyun’s family was legitimate, and like any influential family in L City, they always kept their distance from the Tong Family, treating them like a plague to be avoided at all costs.

Ideally, one would not provoke the Tong Family; if an encounter was inevitable, they would go out of their way to avoid it.

Yan Bo’s expression remained calm, but he was quite dissatisfied with what Ling Qingyun had said.

What did he mean by "anything you want"? What kind of person did Ling Qingyun think he, Yan Bo, was?

"Why?"

Yan Bo didn’t recall any family called the Tong Family among the aristocratic families of L City.

With a look of frustration, Ling Qingyun said, "Young Master Yan, I know you are formidable, but even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local tyrant. No one in L City dares to provoke the Tong Family, not even Secretary Ye can do anything to them."

If Yan Bo could make his home here, he believed he had a thorough understanding of the local aristocratic families. Who were the Tong Family, that they stood above even the Top Ten Families?
