Tian Xiaomei's pretty face flushed red, and she hurriedly shook her head, "No need, this is enough."
"Ah, that's a shame," Lin Chen shook his head helplessly.
"Lin Chen, can I take you out for dinner tonight?" Tian Xiaomei said softly.
Just as Lin Chen was about to agree, his phone suddenly rang.
"Hold on a second," Lin Chen gave an awkward smile and answered the phone.
As soon as the call connected, An Xiaodi's voice came through, "Lin Chen, come and save me quickly, there are hooligans at the Miqing Club trying to harass me."
After only a sentence, the call was forcefully hung up.
Lin Chen returned the call, but all he got was a busy tone.
"Damn it," Lin Chen's eyes turned cold, and he apologized to Tian Xiaomei, "I'm sorry, I have something to do tonight, so I can't make it, but I'll treat you another time."
With that, Lin Chen turned and ran out of the alley.
"Damn, that's some serious speed." In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen had disappeared.
Tian Xiaomei was almost dumbfounded, his speed was faster than a world champion's.
Like a gust of wind, Lin Chen ran to the side of the road, hailed a cab, and headed straight for the Miqing Club.
Inside a private room of the Miqing Club, four girls looked tense, surrounded by a dozen or so thugs.
"Why should we drink with you? Let us go now, I've already called the police, they will be here any minute," An Xiaodi said with an ugly expression.
"Haha, called the police? Sorry, the last thing I'm afraid of is the police. I forgot to tell you, the local police station chief is my uncle. Do you want me to make a call to report the incident for you?" Hei San stared coldly at the four drooling girls and laughed.
"I've already told you, my friend is coming, and he is very powerful. I advise you to let us go, or you'll regret it," An Xiaodi's complexion shifted slightly as she continued to threaten.
"Really? I'm so scared. When is he coming? I can't wait. I forgot to tell you, there are nearly a hundred brothers of mine in this club. No matter how tough your friend is, on my turf, even a dragon has to coil for me, and a tiger must lie down.
Got it?" Hei San laughed loudly.
An Xiaodi's face turned ugly in an instant; today, she and her sisters just wanted to meet up here and had not expected to walk right into a den of thieves.
Hei San sneered at them, "Such pretty little girls would make a nice gift for Brother Biao. I bet he'd be thrilled. Maybe he'd even make me a Hall Master."
"Humph, don't even think about it," An Xiaodi retorted angrily.
"Help! Help me!" An Xiaodi suddenly screamed.
Seeing An Xiaodi calling for help, Hei San's smile deepened.
"Scream all you want, even if you scream your throat raw, no one will come to save you. In Capital City, who dares to go against me, Hei San?"
"That's not necessarily true, yo!" His words had barely fallen when a cold voice came from the doorway.
Thump, thump, thump! A slender figure walked into the room.
"Lin Chen!" Seeing Lin Chen, An Xiaodi saw him as a savior.
Seeing that An Xiaodi and the others were unharmed, Lin Chen finally relaxed.
"Lin Chen, did you call the police? Are they coming right away?" An Xiaodi asked excitedly.
"Call the police, why would I do that?" Lin Chen scratched his head.
"You didn't call the police? Then what are you doing here?" An Xiaodi was startled.
"Of course, I came to save you!" Lin Chen smiled.
"You, you're a complete idiot," An Xiaodi was on the verge of rage.
When she called Lin Chen for help, she didn't really expect him to rescue her; she just hoped Lin Chen would call the police, but this idiot actually showed up himself.
Hearing that Lin Chen hadn't called the police, Black Three finally relaxed a bit. Although he said he wasn't afraid of the police, if they really showed up, it would have been troublesome.
"Don't worry, just a few punks, no need for the police," Lin Chen reassured, patting An Xiaodi's shoulder.
"Clap clap clap!" Black Three suddenly started clapping.
"What a fine act of a hero saving a beauty. But since you're here, you won't be leaving," Black Three said coldly, waving his hand.
A few thugs blocked Lin Chen's path.
"Kid, you arrived at just the right time, with skin so fair and tender; I like it best. You are mine," Black Three stared at Lin Chen, a lecherous smile appearing in his eyes.
"Emma, that's disgusting, I'm not into that," Lin Chen said.
"Haha, you don't have a choice. Grab them! The girls for Brother Biao, and the boy for me," Black Three's eyes flashed with coldness.
By then, An Xiaodi and the other girls were trembling with fear, one of the more timid girls even started crying.
Lin Chen shook his head helplessly: "Well, since you like it so much, I'll grant your wish and turn you into a complete eunuch!"
With that, Lin Chen's gaze turned icy, his figure blurred into a shadow and appeared before Black Three, delivering a fierce kick between his legs.
Accompanied by a scream, Black Three flew back like a ball, landing and immediately howling in agony as he clutched his crotch.
"What are you idiots looking at? Get him, I want to flay him and pull out his tendons!"
"How dare he smash my balls, chop him into mincemeat and feed him to the dogs!" Black Three hysterically screamed.
The gang members snapped to their senses and pulled out their machetes, rushing at Lin Chen like a pack of ravenous wolves.
Watching Lin Chen being engulfed by the shadows of knives, An Xiaodi's face changed.
No matter how skilled Lin Chen was, there was no way he could handle over a dozen knife-wielding toughs.
"It's my fault, I shouldn't have let him come, I've caused his death," she thought.
An Xiaodi closed her eyes, unable to bear the sight, her heart sinking into despair.
Just then, a series of muffled sounds accompanied by screams suddenly erupted in the private room, shocking An Xiaodi as she opened her eyes wide in astonishment.
The toughs surrounding Lin Chen were clutching their groins as they fell to the floor, howling in pain.
The sound of bursting balls echoed through the private room.
One after another, they were sent to the floor by Lin Chen's kicks.
Finally, the dozen or so underlings who had pounced on Lin Chen all fell, and the remaining onlookers were too terrified to move a step closer.
At that moment, the previously arrogant Black Three was panic-stricken, trembling all over; he knew he had hit a wall this time.
Just then, the sound of footsteps came from the doorway, and upon seeing the person who walked in, Black Three's face lit up with relief: "Big Brother, you're finally here. You have to avenge me!"
