Chapter 1319: Chapter 1369: Beat Him Up for Me

"What did you just say?" Xu Shanshan immediately shouted angrily. In a flash, she was already in front of the guy. Raising her hand, she was ready to slap him across the face.

Xu Shanshan’s movements were so fast that others only saw a blur. She was already standing in front of that young man.

But her wrist was caught by Li Yifei. He gently said, "Shanshan, don’t act impulsively. Tomorrow is your sister’s big wedding day. Don’t resort to violence."

Xu Shanshan gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "That bastard has such a filthy mouth! I really want to beat him to death!" Yet, she still lowered her hand. After all, Li Yifei had a point. Tomorrow was indeed a joyous day for a wedding, and brawling today wouldn’t be appropriate.

The young man, however, was startled. He felt a blur before his eyes, and two people had suddenly appeared in front of him. Their speed was too fast. When he heard the exchange between Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan, his eyes widened as he shouted, "You two sure have guts! Try hitting me! Just hit me once, and I’ll have the police arrest the lot of you and lock you up for life."

Seeing how arrogant the young man was, everyone frowned, feeling an overwhelming urge to punch him.

Li Yifei looked at the young man and said calmly, "We booked this hall in advance, and we’re not going to give it up to anyone. I advise you to drop this idea unless you want to face some serious consequences."

"Threatening me? Haha... Did you all hear that? This guy is actually threatening me." The young man immediately turned to his three companions and burst into laughter, as if he’d just heard the funniest joke in the world.

Another young man joined in the laughter before stepping forward, his face darkening. "Kid, I don’t care who you are, but let me give you a little reminder: Young Master Wang’s family assets are worth over a hundred million, and his uncle is Wang Shoucheng. If you don’t know who that is, go ask around. You’ll find out soon enough."

"I don’t need to ask. This hall definitely won’t be handed over," Li Yifei replied indifferently.

At this point, Ning Xin’er’s father turned to Xu Zhenguo and asked, "Old Xu, who exactly is Wang Shoucheng?"

Xu Zhenguo answered in a low voice, "Wang Shoucheng is the Deputy Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission in our city. He’s extremely arrogant and well-connected, both in official circles and the underworld. Although he’s just a deputy, even the mayor and the Municipal Party Secretary have to give him face. He’s practically the top boss around here."

"Oh?" Ning Xin’er’s father frowned deeply and said, "So, he’s involved in criminal activities?"

Xu Zhenguo let out a sigh and replied, "Yes, but he has strong backing in the province, so nobody can touch him. That’s why he acts so untouchable here. I never expected to run into him over this hall booking. It’s really troublesome."

Ning Xin’er’s father snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, a corrupt official involved in organized crime still running rampant? What on earth is the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission doing? Old Xu, leave this to me. I’ll handle it."

Xu Zhenguo hesitated for a moment and said, "Old Ning, is that really necessary? Just make a call and tell him to back off from the hall dispute."

Ning Xin’er’s father patted Xu Zhenguo on the shoulder. "Old Xu, don’t worry. I know how far I can go. But officials like Wang Shoucheng are a disaster. If we don’t bring him to justice, the citizens of the city will lose faith in our government. It’s a major issue. Arresting him would clear the way for a brighter future for the people."

Xu Zhenguo nodded and said, "You’re right; national matters come before personal ones. Officials like him do need to be dealt with."

Ning Xin’er’s father smiled faintly and stepped aside to make a phone call.

While this was being decided, the arrogant young man was still acting cocky. Banging a table, he shouted at Li Yifei, "You’re really asking for it! I’m taking this private room whether you like it or not. If you interfere, you won’t even get to hold your wedding. I’ll dump your bodies into the river to feed the turtles. Then you can have a ghost marriage in the afterlife!"

"Smack! Smack!"

Two crisp slapping sounds rang out as the guy took slaps to both sides of his face. Surprisingly, it wasn’t Xu Shanshan or Xu Shanshan who struck him but Lin Qiong and Ye Yunzhu.

Both women weren’t the type to have good tempers, and as government officials, they despised those who flaunt their connections and authority. Hearing the young man’s increasingly vile insults, they finally lost it. Each delivered a slap.

"You... you wretched women! How dare you hit me?" The young man clutched his face with both hands, staring at Lin Qiong and Ye Yunzhu in disbelief.

"Damn right, we hit you!" Lin Qiong raised her leg and kicked the young man squarely in the stomach, sending him stumbling two steps back before he crashed to the ground with a thud.

Seeing Lin Qiong and Ye Yunzhu in action, Chu Xiaoyao dashed forward, lifted her leg, and fiercely kicked the guy, shouting imposingly, "You bastard, I’ll beat you to death right now and send you off for that ghost marriage."

Since the fight had already started, Meng Xiaofei and Zheng Yuling also stepped in, raining punches and kicks on the guy. Though he was a man, he stood no chance against the joint assault. Beaten senseless, he could only cradle his head, howling in pain.

"Stop! Stop!" The other three companions finally tried to intervene, but Lin Qiong glared at them and shouted, "What do you think you’re doing? Back off, or I’ll thrash you too."

The three looked at each other in dismay. They’d never seen women this fierce before. Even more remarkable was that all the fighters were stunning beauties, while the men in their group hadn’t moved a muscle.

Xu Yingying twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Everyone, stop."

The group immediately stopped. Xu Yingying walked over to the young man, who was now curled up into a ball. He raised his head to look at Xu Yingying and then at Xu Zhenguo. He didn’t recognize most of them, but he did recognize Xu Zhenguo.

"Damn it... Xu Zhenguo, how dare you let them hit me? You’re dead meat! If I don’t ruin you, my name isn’t Wang!"

"Thud!" With a dull sound, the young man’s body, which was sitting on the ground, suddenly flew half a meter into the air before landing heavily with another thud.

It was Xu Yingying who kicked him. She hadn’t intended to join in originally, only to stop the others from escalating the issue further. After all, they had a wedding to prepare for tomorrow, and dealing with these people wasn’t worth their time. But hearing the man insult her father again was the last straw, and she couldn’t hold back any longer. Instead of stopping others, she ended up diving into the fight herself.

After recent Dual Cultivation training, Xu Yingying’s strength had significantly increased. Her kicks packed much more power, and this particularly furious kick nearly knocked the guy unconscious.

Li Yifei couldn’t help but smile wryly. Well, now even the bride had gotten involved in the fight against his original intentions to avoid conflict.

"Let me hit him a few more times! That bastard dared to insult my dad!" Xu Shanshan twisted her arm as her wrist was still restrained by Li Yifei.

Li Yifei quickly said, "That’s enough. Your sister already handled it. Let it go. If you lose your temper and don’t control your strength, you really might send him off for that ghost wedding."

At that moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps echoed from outside the hall. Suddenly, more than twenty burly men stormed in, all looking like fierce thugs. One of them shouted loudly, "Where’s Young Master Wang?"

"I... I’m here." The young man finally caught his breath and struggled to respond.

The group rushed over, quickly helping the young man to his feet. The burly man who had spoken earlier glared and said, "Young Master Wang, who the hell hit you? I’ll break their legs!"

"It was those wretched women!" The young man pointed at Xu Yingying and the others.

"Them..." The group froze momentarily. Standing before them was a group of dazzling beauties. Could Young Master Wang really have been beaten by these women?

"Yeah, it was them who hit me!" The three companions who had been cowering in the corner now stepped forward, also pointing at Xu Yingying and the others.

The thugs looked at each other with peculiar expressions. Women who fought were not unheard of, but it was usually delinquent girls, not a lineup of beauties like these.

"You idiots, what are you waiting for? Go grab them all! I’m going to make them pay tonight!" the young man shouted furiously.

Finally snapping out of their hesitation, the thugs closed in on Xu Yingying’s group, though their faces carried grins rather than malice. Fighting against a group of stunning women was definitely a first for them, and they struggled to maintain a menacing demeanor.

"Get lost!" Lin Qiong glared and shouted.

One of the men leered at Lin Qiong, his eyes roaming over her figure. He smirked and said, "Feisty little thing. And what if we don’t leave?"

"I’m a cop!" Lin Qiong shot back.

"A cop? Big deal. We love beating up cops the most." The thug didn’t show an ounce of fear, becoming even more arrogant instead.

Lin Qiong was so infuriated that she felt like she might explode. These men were utterly brazen; even declaring her police identity didn’t intimidate them. Their unchecked arrogance made it clear that they had no respect for the law or any sense of restraint.

"Ladies, let’s teach them a lesson. Don’t hold back!" Lin Qiong shouted as she charged forward first.
