Chapter 179: 179: He Defends Vehemently!
Suddenly, her face drained of color in fear, “Ah!”
A shrill scream caused everyone around to look over.
“He’s hitting someone! He’s hitting someone!” Her voice was sharp and piercing, leading the onlookers to think it was Rong Yan and his group who had started the brawl.
The burly man, who had been dazed by Li Shengxiao’s punch, also came to his senses, realized he was bleeding from the nose, and reacted with both shock and rage. He scrambled up, struggling, “Damn pretty boy, you’re looking for death! You dare to hit me? Do you know who I am? It looks like you’re tired of living!”
Seeing that some of the onlookers were calling the police, Rong Yan, not wanting to escalate the situation, anxiously tugged at someone’s sleeve, “Li Shengxiao, let it go. I’m fine; let’s just go back, ten minutes are almost up, and the boss lady is waiting for us.”
Some people just wouldn’t shut up and were still asking for trouble, “Hmph! Unless you kneel down and apologize to me, don’t even think about leaving today!”
Rong Yan gave an exasperated glance at the person spouting nonsense, feeling utterly helpless. Was he an idiot? She didn’t want to argue with a fool, but this fool was too stupid—it was like lighting a fire (courting death) next to the bathroom; what could she do! His nose was bleeding from the fight, and yet he dared to defy Li Shengxiao; couldn’t he see the terrifying level of his aura already?
“Li Shengxiao, let’s just go,” Rong Yan said, uninterested in his bluster. She looked at the tall man with a coaxing air, “Can we, please?”
His status was different from ordinary people. If the incident became a big deal, it would affect him much more than it would the hoodlum.
Another reason was that fighting always carried the risk of injury, and she worried about him getting hurt…
Li Shengxiao’s hawk-like eyes were as dark as dense ink, and his handsome face was extremely grim, his aura overpowering. However, upon hearing Rong Yan’s soft plea, he gradually loosened his grip.
The moment the burly man was free, he staggered and nearly fell in disgrace. But still fearless, he continued to provoke, “Scared, huh, pretty boy? If you have the guts, keep it up. Oh, your chick is sensible enough to advise you. Let me tell you, I have connections with the police. If this blows up, you’ll be the one who suffers.’
His girlfriend propping him up, the burly man wiped the blood from his nose with the back of his hand, looking smug, “Damn, you even made me bleed. Pretty boy, don’t think this is over just because you backed down. Unless you and your chick apologize to me properly, we’re still going to the police station!”
His demeanor was arrogant as he disrespectfully referred to Rong Yan as a “chick.” The man who was about to follow Rong Yan turned with a sudden chill in his eyes, pulling Rong Yan aside, “Wait here for me.”
“Li Shengxiao…” Rong Yan called out to him, somewhat anxiously.
The tall and handsome man looked at her with calm and assertive eyes, saying quietly, “Don’t worry, leave it to me!”
Li Shengxiao sharply turned back and strode away—
“What are you doing?” The sudden turnaround startled the burly man, who instantly lost his bravado.
“Courting death!”
Li Shengxiao’s lips barely moved.
He kicked the man, sending him flying to the ground!
The kick that sent him into the air was as cool as a scene from a martial arts movie, executed with precision and finesse. The bulky man, easily weighing 160 jin, flew and crashed heavily to the ground, his arm scraping against the pavement, crying out in pain.
Before he could get up, suddenly, the gleaming tip of a shoe pressed down on his right hand, grinding down with force. A horrible cracking sound of bones breaking was heard, and the man’s screams of agony echoed throughout the entire pedestrain street..
