Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Overdone

"You... you..." Su Yiyi’s father covered his face, his mouth brimming with fresh blood, stuttering, unable to speak.

Li Yifei snorted coldly and said, "What’s the matter, you’re not convinced after I hit you?"

"I... I’m Yiyi’s father," Su Yiyi’s father emphasized his relationship with Su Yiyi.

"And it’s precisely for that reason that I need to beat you!" Li Yifei said as he stood up and punched Su Yiyi’s father in the abdomen.

Su Yiyi’s father’s body bent forward, and Li Yifei’s elbow had already smashed into his back, sending him plummeting to the ground with a thud.

But that wasn’t all. Li Yifei kicked out with both feet, aimlessly striking Su Yiyi’s father, each blow landing with a loud sound, showing the force behind them.

By this point, Su Yiyi’s father was screaming like a pig being slaughtered, begging for mercy amidst his cries, "Stop hitting me, stop it, please have mercy! I beg for my life!" He had learned his lesson now, aware that flaunting his identity only made the beating worse.

Sun Li and the others were sweating from their foreheads. They weren’t strangers to beating people, but they rarely beat someone as ruthlessly as Li Yifei was doing now. What kind of grudge did he have that prompted him to beat someone so ferociously?

After a full two minutes, Li Yifei finally stopped. Although the beating he gave seemed horrifying, he had actually controlled his strength the whole time, deliberately avoiding Su Yiyi’s father’s vital areas. He chose places that were exceptionally painful on the body, so while it looked brutal, and Su Yiyi’s father was in intense pain, it was not going to cause him serious harm.

After the beating, Li Yifei sat down, and at that moment, Sun Li promptly handed him a bottle of mineral water, saying flatteringly, "Brother, have some water."

If previously Sun Li had acted out of coercion, he was now genuinely subdued by Li Yifei. This was a truly ruthless man, and Sun Li felt utterly inferior.

Li Yifei nodded, took the water and had a sip, then looked at Su Yiyi’s father and slowly said, "Do you know why I beat you?"

Su Yiyi’s father sat collapsed on the floor, his mouth opening and closing like a dying fish, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Li Yifei and cautiously said, "It’s... my fault."

"So you know you’re a scumbag?" Li Yifei’s lips curled with a scornful arc.

Su Yiyi’s father hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, I’m a scumbag. I gamble, I lose money, and I make Yiyi pay off the debt. I won’t do it ever again, I swear."

Li Yifei snorted and said, "I don’t care whether you gamble or whether you die, but let me tell you something, no matter what you do, if you even think of using Yiyi again, I will make sure you find it tough even to wish for death. You will learn what real pain is."

Su Yiyi’s father nodded as if pecking like a chicken, saying, "Yes, yes, I’ll definitely not trouble Yiyi anymore."

"Also, I don’t want Yiyi to know that I’ve been here. If Yiyi asks about me, I will certainly come looking for you."

Li Yifei spoke these words casually, then his gaze shifted towards Sun Li and the others. They immediately started shaking their heads, saying, "We’d die before we told."

Li Yifei stood up, looked once more at Su Yiyi’s father, and said in a cold voice, "If you learn to behave, I might let Yiyi give you some money now and then to keep you from starving in your old age. Otherwise, if I’m in a bad mood one day, I might just bury you alive."

Having said that, he walked out the window, leaping down from the second floor with a single bound.

As soon as Li Yifei left, everyone in the room felt as if a thousand jins of weight had been lifted from their hearts, and they seemed to lose all their strength. Today they had learned what a true villain looked like; compared to Li Yifei, they were like nothing at all.

Looking at Su Yiyi’s father, they suddenly felt both envious and sorry for him. Envious because he had such an awesome son-in-law, but they pitied him because this son-in-law didn’t treat him like a father-in-law at all. If nothing happened, getting beaten up by his son-in-law would be a pitiful state for a father-in-law.

Back in the rental car, Li Yifei returned straight to the warehouse. With the back and forth, it was already past two in the morning. He paid the driver and asked him to wait a bit longer before going into the warehouse.

The light in his bedroom was still on. Just as he reached the door, Su Yiyi had already opened it, her eyes full of hopeful expectation, yet she didn’t dare to ask, appearing pitifully endearing.

Li Yifei instantly felt a pang of pain for her; she truly was a pitiful girl. But he smiled faintly and said, "Don’t worry, your dad’s fine now."

Su Yiyi gaped in joy and stammered, "Brother Li, is it really true?"

"Of course, it’s true. If you don’t believe it, you can call and ask your dad."

Su Yiyi nodded again and again, pulled out her phone, and with excitement dialed the number. Soon, the call connected, "Dad, are you okay?"

The voice of her father, muffled, came from the other end of the line, "It’s... it’s nothing now."

"Dad, what’s wrong with you? What happened to your voice?" Su Yiyi was startled and asked anxiously.

"It’s nothing... nothing, you’re with..."

"I’m with Brother Li, he’s the one who helped you."

Su Yiyi’s father’s heart skipped a beat, knowing that the scoundrel was with his daughter, he dared not speak recklessly, and even if they weren’t together, he truly didn’t dare to say anything, he quickly said, "Thank Brother Li for me, I won’t gamble anymore, you don’t need to worry about your dad anymore."

"Dad..." Su Yiyi’s voice choked up at once, for her father’s gambling addiction, she had cried countless times and had pleaded countless times, but to no avail, but now with just one action from Li Yifei, her father had actually stopped gambling, how could she not be moved.

"Alright, it’s getting late, your dad needs a good night’s sleep, you two should rest early too."

"Mm-hmm." Su Yiyi hung up the phone, still in excitement, solving this problem was not what made her happiest, it was her father personally saying he would stop gambling, that was better than anything, so she didn’t even notice that her father was telling them to go to sleep early.

"It’s late, the taxi is still waiting outside, I’ll have the car take you back," Li Yifei said, patting Su Yiyi on the shoulder with a smile.

Only then did Su Yiyi snap back to reality, hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Yifei, and said softly with a blushing face, "Brother Li, I... I won’t leave today."

Li Yifei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is it because you can’t get back into your school dormitory?"

"I... I want to stay... to be with you." Su Yiyi looked down, her hands twisting the corner of her clothes again.

She spoke shyly, which sent a wave through Li Yifei’s heart, but he shook his head and said, "Silly girl, don’t be delusional, I don’t need your company."

However, Su Yiyi lifted her head, speaking excitedly, "Brother Li, I’m serious, you’ve helped me so much, not only dealing with my dad’s problem but also getting him to quit gambling, it’s a huge favor to me, to our family, it’s too much of a debt for me, I really have no way to repay it, so... so..."

Li Yifei had to admit that Su Yiyi was indeed very tempting now, but such a girl, he didn’t want to hurt, he sighed, "If you do this, it’ll be like I’ve made a transaction with you, I don’t like that."

Su Yiyi’s eyes widened as she looked at Li Yifei, it had been very hard for her to gather the courage to say such words, she didn’t expect Li Yifei to refuse, and his refusal left her unsure of what to do.

Li Yifei cracked a slight smile and said, "Alright, it’s getting late, let me find a hotel for you to stay in tonight."

Looking at Li Yifei, Su Yiyi bit her lip and said softly, "I won’t leave, I’ll stay here tonight, if Brother Li wants me... I’ll give myself to you, if you don’t want me, then... then I’ll just squeeze in here with you for the night."

Li Yifei looked at Su Yiyi and suddenly chuckled, "Alright then, I’ll go and tell the driver so he doesn’t wait for you anymore."

"Mm-hmm." Seeing that Li Yifei had agreed, Su Yiyi was immediately full of joy, and then her face flushed with shyness.

Li Yifei went out to dismiss the taxi, and by the time he came back, Su Yiyi was already lying on the bed, covered with a blanket, with only her face showing, and the clothes draped over the bed corner suggested that Su Yiyi might not be wearing much underneath.

Su Yiyi’s eyes were closed, her hair spread across the pillow, cheeks flushed with a tender beauty, like a blossoming flower waiting for Li Yifei to pick.

Li Yifei’s mouth twitched, he had shared a room with Xu Yingying more than once, and that night when Xu Yingying had a fever, he had taken care of her all night. Although she was lying in bed as well, Xu Yingying didn’t evoke the same impulses that Su Yiyi did. It wasn’t that Su Yiyi was prettier than Xu Yingying, in fact, some aspects were less so, but with Su Yiyi, if Li Yifei agreed, he could do anything to her, something that Xu Yingying couldn’t compare with.

Li Yifei turned off the lights, then groped his way to the bedside, took off his jacket and sweater, leaving only a long-sleeve shirt, grateful for the winter season. He then got into bed, lifted the blanket, and lay down flat on the bed.

The bed was a single, so it was already at its limit to accommodate two people. As he lay down, Li Yifei could hear Su Yiyi’s breathing become more rapid, though she tried her best to suppress it, the nervousness made it impossible for the girl to control her breath.

The bedding was brand new, smelling fresh, the room didn’t have central heating, but had an electric heater turned on, so the temperature wasn’t very high. However, there was an electric blanket under the covers, so it was quite warm inside the bed.

Even though there was a girl lying next to him, Li Yifei had no intentions of touching her. He wasn’t a saint he wasn’t touching Su Yiyi. He just felt that Su Yiyi was still a pure girl. If he touched her, he would likely be entwined with emotions. At the very least, Li Yifei didn’t want to be bound by emotions for now, even if Su Yiyi had a strong allure, he had to restrain his own desires and not touch her.

After tossing and turning for half the night, Li Yifei was very tired and was about to fall asleep when Su Yiyi carefully turned over, facing him. Her breathing even more rapid, and then a trembling hand hesitantly laid upon his chest.
