Super Soldier in the City
Chapter 497 - 506

Chapter 497: 506

The woman’s husband, named Kong Libo, is now a public servant working in the finance bureau of a district, while this woman herself is named Wang Yajuan, and her father is the Deputy Captain of the City Urban Management Brigade.

Kong Libo was originally a college graduate from a mountain village and a schoolmate of Wang Yajuan. As he was quite handsome, many female students pursued him in school. However, since Wang Yajuan could arrange a job for him, he eventually married her, albeit reluctantly. Thanks to his father-in-law, it took only a few years for him to rise to the position of a section chief.

His father-in-law is only in his early fifties and can work for a few more years, so Kong Libo’s future promotions will still depend on his father-in-law. That’s why, even though his wife has always been commanding and abusive toward him, cursing and hitting him as she pleases, he could only submit to her demands.

When his wife got into a conflict, he knew for certain his wife was the one causing trouble. Yet under these circumstances, he could only obey his wife and came to Li Yifei, saying with a stern face, "You actually dared to hit my wife; you must really be tired of living."

Having been a public servant for a few years and having his father-in-law’s support, Kong Libo couldn’t stand up to his wife. However, in front of others, he often vented the frustration he faced at her, now glaring at Li Yifei with a menacing frown.

Li Yifei had originally thought Kong Libo to be a henpecked man, one who didn’t dare to fart when hit by his wife; he even felt a bit of sympathy for him. But now, seeing this guy acting all high and mighty in front of him, his sympathy vanished in an instant. He coldly said, "I’m really impressed with you, having such an outstanding wife and still keeping your composure after being slapped."

Kong Libo’s face grew uglier. Having such a wife was already a sore point for him. He had just been slapped in public by his wife, which had been humiliating enough, and now with Li Yifei’s comment, he felt even more ashamed. His shame quickly turned into anger, and he cursed and swung his fist at Li Yifei, clearly very bold.

When he started fighting, the other three men also rushed forward. Li Yifei was in his swimwear, and his chest muscles and abs were very prominent. It was clear he was quite strong. Kong Libo obviously was no match for Li Yifei, and the other three were naturally going to help him out.

"Hit him! Hit him hard!" Wang Yajuan shouted loudly, pulling her son along.

And to everyone’s surprise, her son also shouted loudly, "Go for it! Make sure to draw blood!"

At this point, quite a few people had gathered around and were watching this scene with the same fascination one might have for a freak show. The son was just a few years old, maybe three or four, and already so fierce. They could only imagine what he would be like when he grew up. But then, looking at his mother, they felt it was normal; with a mother like that, what else could her son be like?

Xu Shanshan and Chu Xiaoyao watched the four men attack Li Yifei without the slightest worry. Instead, their faces were filled with excitement. Both had seen Li Yifei in action before, but it had been a while since they last saw it. Even though these few men were not much of a challenge, watching Li Yifei throw a few punches was enough to satisfy their craving for action.

Li Yifei was indeed very annoyed at this moment. If these people had simply insulted him, he might not have cared. But this woman had dared to lay hands on his daughter, which was crossing Li Yifei’s line of no forgiveness.

So, Li Yifei threw punches and kicks, and in no time, he had all four men lying on the ground. He hadn’t been excessively rough, but the pain he inflicted was surprisingly severe. The four grown men lay there, howling like pigs to the slaughter, completely disregarding any sense of dignity.

Li Yifei ignored the four men and went straight towards Wang Yajuan. Wang Yajuan was now frightened, not expecting that her side couldn’t even touch Li Yifei, and she took two steps back, protecting her son and stuttered, "What do you want to do?"

Xu Yingying, seeing that Li Yifei had dealt with the four men, hurried over while holding Li Yufei and urged, "Yifei, let it go."

Li Yifei nodded, took his daughter, and the little girl’s eyes sparkled with excitement. She hugged Li Yifei’s neck, gave him a peck on the cheek, and excitedly said, "Godfather, you are so awesome."

Having his daughter look up to him with such admiration, Li Yifei felt an indescribable joy. He smiled faintly and said, "If godfather wasn’t strong, how could I protect Little Yifei?"

"Yes, yes, godfather has to protect Yifei always. Then Yifei will never be bullied again, and I won’t be afraid even if adults bully me."

Li Yifei turned to Wang Yajuan and said indifferently, "Apologize to my daughter." His voice was not loud, but because he had just knocked down the four men, his words carried an unspoken authority.

Wang Yajuan, true to her fierce nature, although somewhat frightened, stuck out her chest and shouted, "Fine, you dare to hit me? Do you know who my father is?"

Chu Xiaoyao immediately chimed in, "Such a grown person, still running to daddy for help, how utterly shameless."

Wang Yajuan snorted, "My dad is the Deputy Captain of the City Urban Management Brigade, you dare to hit me, just wait and see how you’ll regret it."

Li Yifei suddenly found it very amusing. Nowadays in Huaxia, although there’s still a hierarchy favoring officials, where being an official means you’re more important than the common folk, the slogan promoted from above is still ’serve the people’. So, showing off your power in your own office to those who came to you for help is one thing—no one would say anything about that. But to flaunt your dad’s position as an official to intimidate others in public, that’s really shooting yourself in the foot.

For a daughter to be so arrogant, her dad mustn’t be a good sort either. Usually, Li Yifei would just scorn someone like this, but since she had hit his daughter, he saw this as an opportunity to let this woman dig her own father’s grave. Once her dad got into trouble, she’d lose her backing.

"Wow, your dad is the Deputy Captain of the Urban Management Brigade?" Li Yifei immediately adopted an expression of seeming guilt.

Seeing Li Yifei act like this, Wang Yajuan grew bolder, puffed out her chest, and stated arrogantly, "Now you realize it, but it’s too late. You hit me, and you’re going to pay for it."

"Don’t scare me. The Urban Management Brigade might be an authoritative department, but there are several Deputy Directors, and those ranked lower aren’t so frightening."

Wang Yajuan puffed out her chest even more, her eyes rolling upwards in a dead-fish manner, oozing pride as she said, "My dad is second in command, you get what ’second in command’ means? Plus, the Chief Captain will retire soon, then my father will be the top dog. Do you understand what it means to upset me? I’ll make sure you can’t even stand on your feet in Mile City."

"Second in command... No way, I remember the Urban Management Brigade has quite a few surnamed Wang. You’re not impersonating someone to deceive people, are you?"

Wang Yajuan’s eyes bulged with anger, "My dad is Wang Hongmin, you’re blind."

"Ah, then there’s no mistake." Li Yifei nodded repeatedly and turned to smile at Chu Xiaoyao and Xu Shanshan.

Xu Shanshan and Chu Xiaoyao were both giving Li Yifei knowing glances by now. When Li Yifei suddenly changed his tone while talking to this woman, he had already signaled with his eyes. They both got the hint right away. Chu Xiaoyao stealthily took out her phone and turned on the recording function. Although she hadn’t recorded everything from the beginning, she did capture the woman revealing who her father was.

"Alright, since your dad is the Deputy Captain of the city’s Urban Management Brigade, let’s just forget about this whole thing," Li Yifei said, pretending to speak casually.

"What? You think you can just say ’forget about it’ and it’s done?" Wang Yajuan’s eyes snapped open in outrage.

Li Yifei shrugged his shoulders, "Then what do you want? It’s just a kids’ fight, it’s no big deal. As their mother, you should’ve educated your child properly instead of hitting my daughter. Do you think because you have a powerful dad, you can bully us common folk as you please?"

Li Yifei only pointed out what was wrong with Wang Yajuan, naturally not mentioning a word about him hitting her or the four men.

Wang Yajuan was a complete airhead and hadn’t realized that she had walked right into Li Yifei’s trap. She continued on pompously, "What’s it to you if I bully you? Kowtow to me obediently and admit your wrongs, have your daughter do the same to my son, and on top of that, pay 20,000 yuan for medical expenses since you hit someone. Do that, and I’ll let you off the hook. Otherwise... hmph!" With two cold huffs, Wang Yajuan looked down on Li Yifei, sure that she had him cornered.

Even if Li Yifei had intended to let this woman bring her father down, he hadn’t expected her to make such an outrageous demand. Not only was he taken aback, but Xu Yingying, Xu Shanshan, and Chu Xiaoyao all showed anger on their faces. The surrounding onlookers were left speechless too, finding the woman’s arrogance unbelievable. Her father might be a Deputy Captain of the Urban Management Brigade, but surely she couldn’t be so excessive?

"Are you sure about this?" Li Yifei’s face clouded over again.

Wang Yajuan, having initially succeeded in intimidating Li Yifei with the mention of her father, didn’t take him seriously at all now. She lifted her head and boasted, "Kid, do you realize who my father is? With one phone call, I can bring a hundred city enforcers here, taking you down would be child’s play. Be wise and kowtow to apologize, or you’re finished."
