Su Xingyu looked up and saw four or five young men and women with arms around each other’s shoulders, grinning at her.
Her hand paused slightly while peeling the crayfish. She frowned imperceptibly, realizing how unwise it was to bring Lu Shifeng to eat in a place . She had only ended up in this third-rate university due to a mishap in her college entrance exam. She was out of place among these "classmates" who wore leather jackets, heavy makeup, and tattoos, and there were plenty of people here who disliked her.
She just wanted to enjoy a midnight snack and had no intention of clashing with them.
So, she lowered her gaze, pretending she hadn’t seen anything, continuing to peel her crayfish. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI(F)ire.net
However, the girl leading the group, dressed in a crop top, wouldn’t let her off and stood arrogantly in front of her. "Hey, I’m talking to you! Are you deaf? Oh, you brought a handsome guy, huh? What shady business are you dealing with at some wild club this time? Hahaha!"
As she spoke, she laughed provocatively, and the group behind her laughed recklessly along.
Su Xingyu put down the crayfish with a snap and coldly looked at the girl in the crop top. "Diao Lianna, I’m not as shameless as you. Don’t drag others into things you’ve done yourself!"
"What?" the girl named Diao Lianna’s expression changed immediately. She and Su Xingyu were in the same year and department; she was even famous as the department’s beauty. She spent a lot on clothes and makeup, so what if she picked up a few clients? However, being exposed face-to-face was still embarrassing! She raised her hand and swung it toward Su Xingyu’s face, "You little b*tch, let’s see you talk nonsense!"
Instinctively, Su Xingyu tilted her face, but the anticipated slap didn’t land.
There was a gut-wrenching scream beside her; it was Diao Lianna: "Ah—my hand! My hand is going to break—!"
Turning her head, she saw Lu Shifeng somehow gripping Diao Lianna’s wrist, twisting it inch by inch in the opposite direction. He used only one hand, yet the force was tremendous, leaving Diao Lianna with no resistance. Her arm was nearly twisted into a pretzel, and her face was ghostly pale, drenched in cold sweat. "Quick... let go..." Diao Lianna croaked.
Behind her, the other young people with colorful hair and tattoos were all stunned—
Lu Shifeng’s strength was terrifying!
When they first came in, they’d only noticed Su Xingyu sitting in the light. They hadn’t paid much attention to Lu Shifeng, who was shadowed. Although they knew he was a man from his silhouette, he seemed like someone not involved in street life—a man in a simple T-shirt with neatly trimmed short hair—easy to dismiss with a flick? They hadn’t taken him seriously.
Not until Diao Lianna suffered did they realize this man might be a hidden expert!
"Everyone, let’s get him!" One male delinquent spat and grabbed a beer bottle, rushing towards Lu Shifeng. Even if this man seemed tough, so what? If he provoked them, he wouldn’t walk out of this food stall safely! "We have numbers, can’t we handle him? Get him!"
He said this as he smashed the beer bottle fiercely towards Lu Shifeng’s head.
Lu Shifeng tilted his head to dodge, then got up and kicked Diao Luna away. Diao Luna was kicked in the stomach and flew backward, crashing into a few charging delinquents behind her, causing chaos.
"They’re fighting! They’re fighting!"
"It’s the Wild Wolf Gang! The Wild Wolf Gang has come to brawl!"
The narrow food stall erupted in disorder as diners fled, shouting Diao Lianna and her group’s names, "Don’t mess with them, hurry, hurry!"
Complete pandemonium.
Lu Shifeng pulled Su Xingyu behind him: "Squat here and wait for me!" Forming a small safe zone with some tables and chairs around her.
Su Xingyu snorted: "Don’t underestimate me!" Furiously, she grabbed a plate of unfinished shrimp and slammed it, shrimp included, onto the head of someone rushing towards them. Just kidding, she was someone who graduated from this trashy school, how could she not have seen fights and brawls before? No way she’d fear this little scene!
The large plate of crayfish shattered with sauce and juices over the delinquent’s head, making him stagger. Lu Shifeng kicked him flying away. Then, he turned back to glance at his little wife—a serious, slightly flushed, angry face with bright, beautiful eyes.
The corner of his lips curled slightly; he turned his back to her and reengaged in the fight.
The battle ended quickly. Although the hooligans were many in number, altogether they weren’t a match for Lu Shifeng alone. Within minutes, they were all knocked to the ground, rolling on the filthy floor, moaning in pain.
Lu Shifeng stood amidst the wreckage, as if a war god.
Those delinquents on the ground stared at him in horror. Who... who exactly was this guy?! When did this third-rate university have such a formidable person nearby? From his skills, he must be trained, right? A martial artist, police officer, or special forces soldier? This is too much bullying!
"I’m going to report you!" One delinquent sprawled on the ground hissed through gritted teeth, spewing threats, "Which department are you from, what’s your name? Do you dare that I’ll report you to the counselor!"
"Haha." It was Su Xingyu who laughed out loud. Report to the counselor? That’s interesting. When they voluntarily stirred trouble and attacked, how come they didn’t think they were students then?
Lu Shifeng turned his head to her: "What’s funny?"
His little wife, now resembling a little kitten, had her tiny white, crystal-clear hands covered in crayfish sauce and beer, even a spot on her nose, looking utterly adorable.
Under the dim yellow light, she tilted her head slightly, walked over to the guy shouting about reporting them, and kicked his side. "Sorry, we’re not from your school. Didn’t you think of today back when you framed me for getting expelled?"
The guy grimaced in pain but didn’t forget to curse: "You b*tch! It was your stupidity taking deliveries to the nightclub, what’s it to us? The police barging in was hilarious... hahaha... Ah—!" Another piercing scream, his injured, bleeding thigh was ruthlessly stomped by Su Xingyu’s high heel, making his whole face turn blue with pain.
Lu Shifeng’s face didn’t look good either, he asked Su Xingyu: "They framed you then?"
The matter of her expulsion happened before their marriage. He’d only vaguely heard about it, not knowing the details. Originally, he thought it was just a third-rate, trashy university, no need to dwell on it if she wouldn’t attend anymore, no need to dig up past issues. But today’s chance encounter called for intervention.
