23: Chapter 23, Someone’s coming!

The thugs rushed at him in a crowd, some wielding sticks, others using the store’s bicycles as weapons, each one looking savage, hell-bent on not stopping until Fang Yi was beaten to death.

Fang Yi positioned Shen Binnan behind him as the first thug charged forward.

A glint of ferocity flickered in Fang Yi’s eyes, and in the next moment, his leg swung up, sending the thug flying backward.

The rest followed suit.

These thugs were nothing more than ants.

When Fang Yi used to commit robberies abroad, what level was he at?

He was at a level that caused headaches for the higher-ups of every country.

What were these few thugs compared to that?

So it came as no surprise that the thugs quickly ended up sprawled on the ground, some crying out in pain, tangled among the bicycles like that mohawked frog.

The previously ferocious mohawked frog was now utterly stunned, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets as he took in the scene.

Fuck, why are all my guys the ones going down!

The mohawked frog, looking at Fang Yi who was unharmed and mocking him, felt a chill creep up his spine, shivering uncontrollably, his face turning a shade paler.

Before he could say anything, Fang Yi, still mocking, walked over to him.

The mohawked frog involuntarily stepped backward, but there were bicycles behind him.

He had nowhere to retreat while Fang Yi had already reached him, grabbing his throat like he was picking up a little chick.

The mockery on Fang Yi’s face grew more intense, “You’re called Mohawked Frog?”

Mohawked Frog couldn’t touch the ground with his feet, terror filling his heart as he instinctively nodded, “Yes…

I…

I am…”

Fang Yi continued, “You were trying to kick me just now?”

This time Mohawked Frog shook his head, faster than a spinning drum.

“You may not want to, but I feel like kicking you,” said Fang Yi, not giving Mohawked Frog any chance to beg for mercy, he threw him to the ground, “Spread your legs.

I don’t want to have to ask twice.”

Now Mohawked Frog was genuinely scared.

It seemed this guy really wanted to kick him, and from his expression, nothing was impossible.

He was serious about doing it.

Mohawked Frog hurriedly began to beg, “Big brother…

my lord, you’re my grandfather, I was wrong, truly wrong, please spare me, I beg of you to spare me, I won’t dare to do it again…”

Fang Yi said indifferently, “If everyone behaved like you, begging for mercy as soon as they can’t win without paying any price, then mistakes would be far too easy to make—get to the point, you should leave something behind, right?”

Mohawked Frog was taken aback, then quickly emptied his pockets, hastily pulling out several hundred yuan notes, trembling as he handed them over to Fang Yi.

Fang Yi raised an eyebrow but said nothing, clearly finding the amount insufficient.

Mohawked Frog then yelled, “Don’t you fucking play dead with me, all of you take out your money!”

Consequently, the group of thugs who had come to collect money ended up handing their own over, a great irony indeed.

Before long, approximately five to six thousand yuan were presented to Fang Yi with utmost respect.

Fang Yi, as if it were only natural, took the money, asking, “You wouldn’t call the police, would you?”

Mohawked Frog quickly responded, “No, no, absolutely not, you see…”

Fang Yi cut him off, “Alright, get lost.

Just don’t let me see you again.”

So the group of thugs scurried out of the bicycle store, rolling and crawling.

Fang Yi turned and placed the few thousand yuan on the table, looking at Ning Youque, “This should be enough to buy that bicycle, right?”

Surprise flickered in Ning Youque’s eyes, but then he sighed, “Since you want it so badly, I’ll let you have it.

You’re right, out with the old, in with the new.”

“Thanks!”

Thus, the transaction was made, and Fang Yi walked out carrying the old-style Phoenix-brand bicycle together with Shen Binnan.

When they got outside the store, Fang Yi opened the trunk of Shen Binnan’s red Audi RS6 and put the Phoenix-brand bicycle inside, then, he closed it.

Throughout the process, Shen Binnan was watching from the side without saying a word.

Fang Yi couldn’t take the woman’s piercing stare anymore once they were in the car and said, “Is it just me or do I look exceptionally handsome today?”

Shen Binnan answered honestly, “No.”

“Then why are you staring?”

“I just don’t understand why you are so fond of such an old-fashioned bicycle,” Binnan said.

“Is that so?

Maybe I’m just a bit nostalgic,” Fang Yi replied.

He thought back to that rainy night when the old man had ridden this very type of old Phoenix-brand bicycle, carrying him through the wind and rain to buy things.

Or when, on a sunny day, the old man would take him on a trip on this same bicycle.

Yes, Fang Yi had no interest in those luxury cars.

It’s not that he didn’t have the money— he didn’t even know how much money he had taken, but he still didn’t really like luxury cars.

Perhaps…

humans are just such strange creatures.

They drove all the way to Shen Binnan’s house, where Feng Wenhua immediately came out to greet them with a smile plastered over his face.

However, when he saw Fang Yi getting out of the car with Shen Binnan, a wave of irritation surged in his heart.

This should have been his spot, but now it had been taken by someone else, so of course Feng Wenhua was annoyed.

But as for Fang Yi, he couldn’t care less about such a minor character as Feng Wenhua.

He enjoyed seeing others annoyed with him yet unable to do anything about it.

Shen Binnan got out of the car and was about to walk to the house when a bodyguard rushed to Feng Wenhua and whispered something in his ear.

Feng Wenhua hurriedly said, “President Shen, you have a visitor.”

“A visitor?” Binnan said, “I don’t remember inviting any guests to my home.”

Feng Wenhua’s expression turned quite unsightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, “The person claims they’re from the Black Water Alliance.”

Shen Binnan raised an eyebrow and immediately looked at Fang Yi, his eyes asking for advice.

Even Fang Yi felt surprised and curious, the Black Water Alliance specialized in hunting down Shen Binnan, and now they were paying a personal visit, which was indeed interesting.

“If soldiers come, we’ll block them; if water comes, you drink it.

Feng Wenhua, go welcome them in,” commanded Fang Yi.

Feng Wenhua immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, “Why should I do it?”

Fang Yi took a step closer to him with a teasing smile, “Are you really asking why?”

After a brief inner struggle, under Fang Yi’s sharp gaze which was as penetrating as a knife, Feng Wenhua left with two bodyguards toward the villa’s main gate.

Binnan continued toward the house while Fang Yi followed by her side.

Binnan asked, “What do you think their purpose is for coming?”

Fang Yi replied, “I’m not a deity, I don’t know.”

“Then can you ensure my safety?” Binnan asked again.

Fang Yi chuckled and said, “So you’re afraid of dying too, eh?”

Binnan countered, “Aren’t you?”

“Uh…

Death, well, everyone’s afraid of it.

Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to protect you.

If we can’t win, I’ll just make a run for it first to bring back reinforcements,” Fang Yi shamelessly declared.

Shen Binnan: “…”

Shen Binnan had just sat down in the living room when someone arrived.

A young man and a long-haired man entered.

Fang Yi recognized the long-haired man; he was the assassin who, along with a bunch of scum, had chased after Shen Binnan on the highway that day.
