80: Chapter 78: Can You Not Hit the Face?

Having parked the car, Tangyu immediately left.

A while later, a gaunt figure with a sinister smile emerged from behind a car, brandishing an awl and a steel knife.

He sneakily glanced around, and after making sure no one was around, he hastily approached Zhao Xinxin’s car.

Twisting his mouth into a grim smile, he looked somewhat regretful as he mused, “Tsk tsk, such a beautiful car, what a pity it will be to scratch it.

This gash will cost at least a few thousand bucks, won’t it?

But, the thrill of it, heh heh.”

The wiry man was about to jab the awl into the tire to deflate it when he suddenly sensed something approaching from behind.

Turning sharply, he saw a human-shaped shadow cast on the ground.

The man was taken aback, whipped around on his feet, and stood up briskly, pointing the awl and knife at the person who had silently appeared behind him.

Upon seeing that it was the same young man who had just parked the car there, his eyes bulged in recognition.

Hadn’t he clearly seen him walk away?

How had he returned so mysteriously without notice?

Tangyu watched the slight man with a light chuckle.

He had already noticed someone lurking around the moment he parked the car.

Knowing they were the troublemakers, he had employed a little trick to lure the man out.

If this was not resolved thoroughly, he reckoned Sister Xinxin’s car would have to be dragged to the repair shop daily.

The slight man, still a bit stunned, quickly regained his composure, giving a sinister smile.

He waved the awl and knife in the air, threatening Tangyu fiercely, “Kid, you’re quite smart, aren’t you?

It seems you knew about me hiding in the shadows all along.

But so what?

Be smart and get lost now, or else I’ll ‘fix’ you along with the car, heh heh.”

Tangyu shook his head, not taking the man’s threats seriously at all.

To him, this seemingly frail person could be knocked down in seconds, “To behave so arrogantly when doing dirty work, it looks like you were destined for infamy.

Who sent you?

Zhang Guoli from Shengshi Media?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Since you won’t leave, don’t blame my knife for not being merciful,” the slight man said as he viciously struck out, stabbing towards Tangyu.

Fortunately, the stab wasn’t aimed at a vital point; it seemed he wasn’t so heartless yet.

With a swift motion akin to lightning, Tangyu grabbed the man’s wrist and forcefully twisted it aside.

“Ah—”

The slight man’s scream was immediate; his hands loosened their grip, and the awl and knife clattered to the ground.

His hands were twisted so badly they were almost broken, sending waves of bone-piercing pain through him, causing the muscles on his face to convulse uncontrollably.

“Big brother, have mercy, go easy, go easy, please spare me.

I’ll talk, I’ll talk, I’ll say everything,” the slight man quickly begged, showing no spine whatsoever.

Tangyu sneered, “Even if you don’t talk, it doesn’t matter.

A little more force and both your hands could easily be broken.”

“Ah—pain, pain, please, don’t be impulsive, brother.

Let’s talk things over, I’ll cooperate, I’ll say anything.

I have elderly and young to provide for, a wife and a mistress to take care of, all relying on my delicate hands.

You seem like a good man, you couldn’t possibly be so cruel.

Ah—stop, I’ll talk.

I was just taking money to solve a problem for someone, I swear I don’t know this Zhang from Shengshi Media you mentioned.

I swear on my never-explored chrysanthemum,” the slight man begged incessantly.

Tangyu looked at him with disgust.

The man was indeed revolting as he said, “Don’t waste my time, just tell me who ordered you.”

“It was Brother Sen, Brother Sen told me to do it,” the slight man quickly replied.

“Who is Brother Sen?

Explain more clearly in one go,” Tangyu impatiently demanded.

The slight man nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes, Brother Sen is one of Ba Ge’s crew over by Wangjiang Road.

The day before yesterday, Brother Sen found me, gave me some money, and asked me to do a job for him.

I happily agreed.

And that’s the story.

Ah—”

Before he could finish speaking, the man let out another agonized scream.

“You think I’m a three-year-old child?

If you don’t tell the truth this time, I guarantee I’ll break your hands next,” Tangyu said with a faint smile.

The slight man was on the verge of tears, “I won’t lie anymore, I won’t.

It was Brother Huo who operates along Wangchuan Road.

As for whether he’s associated with Zhang Guoli from Shengshi Media as you mentioned, I truly don’t know.

I swear on the lives of my entire family, this time I’m telling the truth.

I’m just the one who gets paid to do the job.

If you’re looking for someone, go find Brother Huo at Wangchuan Road in the Eastern District.

Just ask around casually there, and you’ll find Brother Huo, or you can directly go to the Wangchuan Bar—he’s usually there.”

Tangyu released the slight man, knowing he was telling the truth this time and realizing he wouldn’t get any more useful information from him.

However, he was beginning to suspect that Zhang Guoli from Shengshi Media must be related to this matter, as the location of the Shengshi Media company was exactly at the Western Well in the Eastern District.

It seemed he would need to make a trip to Wangchuan Bar when he had the chance.

“Thank you, big brother.

Can I go now?” the slight man rubbed his hands and looked at Tangyu with unease.

“Go?

You think you can just leave so easily?

You might be taking money to do jobs, but you were the one who scratched the car, right?

We haven’t even settled this score yet.

How can I possibly let you go so easily?” Tangyu said, gazing at the slight man.

“Uh, big brother, let bygones be bygones.

Just think of me as a fart and let me go.

I wouldn’t want your hands to get dirty hitting me,” the slight man shamelessly pleaded.

Tangyu was far from being soft-hearted.

Seeing that Tangyu was about to hit him, the slight man immediately shielded his face with his hands, saying, “Big brother, can you at least not hit the face?

I still depend on it to make a living.”

Tangyu was slightly amused by the ridiculous actions of the other party.

This was probably the most pathetic thug he had ever seen, the most shameless one, “Okay, I won’t hit the face, I’ll go for the head.” With that said, he lifted his foot and kicked toward the delicate spot of the skinny man, aiming for the most vulnerable part of a man.

“Ow—”

The skinny man jumped up and clamped his legs together before collapsing to the ground in pain, his facial muscles twitching as if spasming.

“Get lost.

Consider this a light punishment.

If I catch you again, it won’t be this mild,” Tangyu said.

The skinny man struggled to stand up and left painfully holding his crotch, throwing a glance at Tangyu: Wasn’t he supposed to hit the head?

It turned out to be a “nuts” beatdown, how testicle-torturing.

After dealing with that matter, Tangyu headed straight back to the company to report to Sister Xin.

As he arrived at the office entrance, he saw Liu Shanshan coming out.

Spotting Tangyu, Liu Shanshan smiled amiably and nodded sweetly, “You’re back, Tangyu.” Perhaps because of the ripples from yesterday, Liu Shanshan’s attitude towards Tangyu had naturally changed somewhat.

“Yeah, I am.

I need to find Sister Xin,” Tangyu replied with a smile.

“Sure, go ahead, Sister Xin is inside.

She was just looking for you,” Liu Shanshan said.

As Tangyu approached Liu Shanshan, he caught a whiff of her subtle fragrance, prompting his gaze to linger on her a bit longer.

This minor action did not escape Liu Shanshan’s notice, and though she didn’t resist, a blush spread across her face.

“Close the door,” Zhao Xinxin said, looking up at Tangyu.

It was about closing the door again.

Tangyu glanced at Sister Xin with caution—could it be that she wasn’t done with him yet this morning?

“Sister Xin, I’ve retrieved the car, here are the keys,” Tangyu said as he handed over the car keys.

Zhao Xinxin was signing some documents, her head bowed in concentration.

Standing there, Tangyu looked down at her and caught a glimpse of something delightful.

Summer is great; it must be the favorite season for boys.

Seeing Sister Xin busy and not minding him, Tangyu didn’t disturb her and just watched quietly.

It was a while before Zhao Xinxin finished her work and looked up at Tangyu, her gaze holding a queer expression.

Seeing Sister Xin’s strange look made Tangyu shrink back a little, warily asking, “Sister Xin, not again, right?”

Zhao Xinxin glared at him, “What, you’re that afraid of me?

I don’t believe your skin is that thin or your courage that small.

Don’t play the pity card with me; I’m not buying it.”

“Sister Xin, you’re wronging me.

My skin really is thin, and at most, I have lecherous thoughts but no guts, how could I be pretending?

I’m actually a bit scared of you now,” Tangyu said.

Zhao Xinxin snorted lightly, “I think you’re both lecherous and bold.

It took you two hours just to get a car; you sure took your sweet time, huh?”

“I got held up a bit,” Tangyu replied, not sharing the details of what had happened, nor planning to.

“Alright, forget about it.

What exactly happened at Chu Xiang Technology yesterday with Liu Shanshan?” Zhao Xinxin asked directly, her eyes trying to bore into Tangyu.

Tangyu realized, by the way she was asking, that she must have questioned Liu Shanshan first.

Given her insistent tone, she likely hadn’t gotten the story from Liu Shanshan.

Thinking it over quickly, Tangyu understood—the Chu Family father and son must have come to the company looking for him and, not finding him, went to Sister Xin instead.

“Nothing happened, Sister Xin.

Didn’t we go over this yesterday?

What’s up?” Tangyu asked.

Looking at Tangyu, Zhao Xinxin deliberated for a while before asking, “Really, nothing happened?”

“Of course nothing happened.

What could happen?

Sister Xin, why would you ask such a thing?” Tangyu assured her emphatically.

Leaning back in her chair, Zhao Xinxin replied, “Then it’s odd.

Just now, President Chu of Chu Xiang Technology personally came to discuss the contract.

Not only did he sign the agreement we had reached before, but he also doubled the intensity of our partnership.

What’s more, President Chu’s attitude was somewhat strange, as if he was deliberately trying to please me.

He asked about you, so I found it peculiar.

What would he want with you?

Are you sure nothing happened between you two?”

Tangyu smiled internally; this Chu Xiang was a smart man, knowing how to curry favor in a roundabout way to defuse the situation.

It seemed the Lin Family’s influence was an enduring threat.

Of course, Chu Xiang’s actions weren’t solely because of the damage to the Lin Family’s car, nor just the fear of the Lin Family; the most important reason must be the fear of him.

This approach by the Chu Family—Tangyu found it quite useful.
