Chapter 938: Chapter 979: Hillside Conflict

Chu Xiaoyao was just about to catch a beautiful butterfly when a group of four men blocked her, causing her to miss it, which left her already annoyed. Upon hearing their words, her irritation grew even more. She glared at them and exclaimed, "Move aside! Go wherever it’s cool."

"Man, this mountain girl really has some spunk," Gu Yandong laughed heartily, finding Chu Xiaoyao and Meng Xiaofei even more intriguing. He had attended too many Sea Sky Feasts and high-profile parties, grown indifferent to the allure of major celebrities and socialites. Meng Xiaofei and Chu Xiaoyao, who dared to show their temper right in his face, instantly piqued his interest.

"It’s your family who are mountain folks!" Xiaoyao retorted fiercely, glaring back at Gu Yandong.

"How dare you!" A man from behind Gu roared with profound authority, a tactic that could easily intimidate ordinary people.

Gu Yandong waved his hand and said, "Don’t scare her." He then smiled warmly at Xiaoyao and said, "Little sister, don’t be afraid, I like you girls, I find you quite appealing. I’m not very familiar with this place, could you show us around a bit?"

Chu Xiaoyao frowned and replied, "We’re not familiar either. Also, could you stop using such cliché moves to flirt? It’s really annoying."

Since the butterfly was gone, Chu Xiaoyao didn’t bother talking any further. She grabbed Little Yifei and said to Meng Xiaofei, "Sister Xiaofei, let’s go."

Just as the trio tried to leave, two men blocked their path. Xiaoyao glared at them, asking, "What do you think you’re doing?"

"One does not leave without Young Master Gu’s permission!" one of the men stated flatly.

"Just because he says I can’t leave means I can’t? Is he the Jade Emperor? Get out of my way!" Xiaoyao was unafraid and reached out to push the man blocking their path.

The man didn’t even try to dodge, allowing Xiaoyao’s hands to push against his chest, but his body didn’t budge. Xiaoyao exerted more force, yet she still couldn’t move him.

"Little Sister, save your energy. They won’t let you go without my say so," Gu Yandong said with a grin from behind.

Instantly, Xiaoyao whipped around, glaring at Gu Yandong and demanded, "What do you want?"

Gu smiled gently, still appearing quite cultured, and said, "When Gu Yandong wants something done, everyone has to agree."

"You really think you’re all that, huh? Let me tell you, you better let us go now, or else when my uncle arrives, he’ll flatten you with a slap."

Gu narrowed his eyes, replying, "What an interesting young lady. But just so you know, I don’t take threats lightly, and usually, those who threaten me end up quite miserable."

Xiaoyao grimaced and said, "You’re so full of yourself; I can’t be bothered with your nonsense."

Still handsome, Gu turned away, putting his hands behind his back, "Well, well, it’s not often someone dares to insult me. I’m starting to like you even more. Alright, if you manage to leave today, I’ll let you go."

"What nonsense, if we leave, we won’t need your permission!"

Chu Xiaoyao and Meng Xiaofei tried to walk around, but the two men quickly blocked them again. Even turning back, those two were still in their way.

Though neither Chu Xiaoyao nor Meng Xiaofei knew martial arts, it was clear these two were formidable. Leaving on their own wasn’t an option.

"Ladies, I merely wanted your company to show us around, here’s ten thousand yuan. Agree to it, and this money is yours," Gu Yandong said, as he took a stack of bills from an associate and flaunted it in front of Chu Xiaoyao and Meng Xiaofei.

Gu was wealthy and used his money to influence countless women, who inevitably ended up in his bed, compliant to his every wish. He presumed these two small-town girls would be effortlessly dazzled by his wealth.

Chu Xiaoyao snorted and retorted, "Could you be less of a show-off? It’s just some measly money. Do you think I’m broke?"

When Gu Yandong saw her reaction, he realized that ten thousand was too trivial for her gaze and simply smiled lightly, saying, "Is that too little? Fine, I’ll make it a million for one night with me, think of it as pocket money."

By now, Little Yifei was losing patience, pulling at both Chu Xiaoyao and Meng Xiaofei’s hands, "Sister Xiaoyao, Aunt Xiaofei, I want to go home now, they’re bad people, I don’t want to play with them."

Meng Xiaofei, who hadn’t spoken much because Xiaoyao always cut in, quickly assured Little Yifei, "Yifei, don’t worry, dad will find us soon."

Chu Xiaoyao squinted at Gu, asking, "Are you really not going to let us leave?"

Still maintaining a gentlemanly demeanor, Gu replied, "Indeed, only if you agree, then I’ll let you go."

Suddenly, Chu Xiaoyao’s face broke into a sly grin, then she began to scream, "Help! Help!"

Gu broke into laughter, "Quite a spirited girl who knows to cry for help. But, I forgot to mention, no matter how much you yell, it’s useless. I have three experts with me; ordinary people would be subdued by just a flick of their finger. Even if you call the cops, they wouldn’t dare meddle in Gu Yandong’s affairs."

Chu Xiaoyao’s smile on her face grew even brighter, and she said, "Ordinary people can’t provoke you, neither can the police, but my uncle can definitely provoke you."

"Really? Then I must see who dares to provoke me, Gu Yandong."

Gu Yandong had some influence in certain areas, but in a small place like Mile City, he had enough capital to be arrogant. He couldn’t believe that with his status, he couldn’t dominate this small city outright.

"Uncle, we’re here!"

"Brother Li!"

"Daddy daddy!"

At this moment, Li Yifei had just rounded the hillside and was sprinting towards them; Chu Xiaoyao and the others had been watching intently and immediately started shouting loudly.

As soon as Li Yifei turned the hillside, he saw the situation and felt relieved. He had heard Chu Xiaoyao calling for help and thought she might have encountered something particularly dangerous, but now it seemed there was no danger, just that she was being harassed by four men.

Thus, Li Yifei immediately slowed down his pace. Although still running, he was now moving at the speed of a normal person.

"Daddy, some bad people are bullying us!" Little Yifei exclaimed as soon as Li Yifei approached.

Li Yifei immediately responded, "Don’t be afraid, daughter. Who is bullying you? Daddy will beat them up for you."

"It’s them!" Little Yifei angrily pointed at Gu Yandong.

Gu Yandong, still wearing his trademark smile, said, "I am Gu Yandong, and I’ve taken a liking to these two girls."

Li Yifei looked at Gu Yandong, somewhat surprised. In Mile City, he had encountered several pretentious second-generation officials. They were indeed arrogant sometimes but quite inferior compared to Gu Yandong. At least those people, even if they wanted to harass someone, would at least find an excuse. Gu Yandong, however, was too direct and overly domineering.

And being so domineering, with three capable-looking subordinates by his side, Gu Yandong clearly had some background.

But Li Yifei was no longer the previous Li Yifei; he was now establishing his own family and stepping into the foreground. The honor of the Li family was very important. If he allowed others to bully him so easily, even failing to protect his own woman and daughter, how could he face establishing his family in the future?

Thus, Li Yifei sternly shouted, "All of you, get lost!"

Gu Yandong smiled as if he had seen something amusing, "Kid, I admire your courage. Protecting your people is indeed what a man should do, but that also requires strength. Gu Ji, teach him a lesson."

A man immediately charged at Li Yifei, moving extremely fast, and threw a punch straight at Li Yifei’s chest.

Gu Yandong had seen such scenes countless times; at his command, his subordinate would strike, and the opponent would be sent flying—an event that always brought him pleasure.

"Ah!" With a scream, Gu Yandong’s smile intensified, but it suddenly froze because, this time, it wasn’t the opponent who flew out; it was his subordinate, Gu Ji.

Li Yifei calmly walked up next to Chu Xiaoyao and her group, scooped up Little Yifei, and said, "Good girl, remember, we shouldn’t bully the good people, but we don’t need to be polite to the bad ones."

Little Yifei vigorously nodded, "Daddy, I remember."

Gu Yandong, although surprised, didn’t panic. He sized up Li Yifei and slowly said, "Kid, I didn’t see that coming, you’ve got some moves."

Chu Xiaoyao snorted, "Don’t think just because you brought three lackeys, you’re anything special. In front of uncle, you’re nothing."

Gu Yandong smiled slightly, "Is that so? Well then, Gu Gan, Gu Kuang, break this guy’s arms."

"Yes!"

The other two subordinates then responded at once, pressing towards Li Yifei. However, they didn’t attack immediately as they could tell that Li Yifei was a skilled martial artist and quite strong—Gu Ji’s defeat had been careless, but without significant skill, he couldn’t have been hurt by the opponent.

"Here’s your chance, put the child down," Gu Kuang harshly spoke, with Gu Gan beside him as they halted in front of Li Yifei.

Li Yifei scoffed disdainfully, "To deal with you, I hardly need to bother too much, one foot is already enough."

"You arrogant kid!" Angered, Gu Kuang and Gu Gan simultaneously attacked Li Yifei.
