73: Chapter 72, It’s passable!

73: Chapter 72, It’s passable!

The entire bar fell silent.

Deathly silent!

Not only were Li Guang, Zhou Qing, and Ma Rui silent, but even the patrons who were there to enjoy themselves were shocked by Fang Yi’s actions.

“A man hitting a woman, what kind of skill is that!” someone jeered at Fang Yi.

“Exactly!

What kind of man hits a woman!”

“If you’re really a man, then let that woman go now!”

For a moment, the bar’s customers were all voicing their opinions, men supporting Zhu Li, women feeling sorry for her.

Li Guang hesitated for a moment, wanting to step forward to intervene, but then he remembered what Fang Yi had just said; he knew this person was very vengeful, so in the end he did not go up.

Although Li Guang did not go over, Zhou Qing did.

She spoke in a low voice, “Fang Yi, let her go, you’ve already avenged me.”

Fang Yi was silent for a moment, then said, “Zhou sister, I did this partly for you, but also for my own reasons, you don’t need to persuade me.”

Zhou Qing frowned slightly but did not say anything more.

Fang Yi heard all the discussions of the surrounding patrons.

He saw Zhu Li’s resentful gaze and the smug expression emerging on her face, so he gave a cold laugh and released his grip.

“Hmph, pretty boy, at least you know what’s good for you!” Zhu Li, feeling her throat freed from his strong grip, could finally breathe deeply.

But, in the next moment!

Slap!

Fang Yi suddenly slapped her again, and another handprint appeared on Zhu Li’s face.

The bar went silent again!

Zhu Li couldn’t believe it.

Her face first felt numb, then followed by an intense, bone-deep pain.

Her face suddenly twisted as she screamed, “You dare!

You still dare to hit me!

I’m going to fight you!!!”

Fang Yi gave a cold smile and said, “This is the price you pay for your arrogance.”

Just then, a clapping sound rang out…

“Well done!

Quite a price to pay!

I, Ma Feng, am quite impressed.” A bald man, clapping slowly, walked out with a group of thugs wielding clubs behind him, a grand presence causing everyone to unconsciously clear a path for him.

This man…

was Bald Brother.

Ma Feng’s appearance changed the situation drastically, and some even clapped and cheered for him, eager to see him give a good lesson to Fang Yi, the man who bullied a woman.

Seeing the arrival of Ma Feng, Li Guang sighed inwardly, “Looks like this issue won’t be resolved tonight.”

Zhou Qing instinctively moved closer to Fang Yi and whispered, “You should run, I’ll hold them back.”

Fang Yi felt a warmth in his heart but raised his hand to put Zhou Qing behind him, unavoidably touching her in the process.

It wasn’t clear whether it was intentional or accidental, but his hand brushed against Zhou Qing.

Her pretty face blushed with a tinge of embarrassment, but now was not the time to dwell on it.

“As a man, how can I let a woman take bullets for me?

If I did that, wouldn’t I lose all my face?” Fang Yi had said this.

Zhou Qing looked up at Fang Yi as if he was a piece of the sky, willing to shield her from all harm, and her heart skipped a beat.

Fang Yi could afford not to be gentle or chivalrous because he thought Zhu Li deserved to be hit; Fang Yi could also be gentle and chivalrous because he thought Zhou Qing was rather good, as simple a reason as that had made Fang Yi choose to stand his ground instead of fleeing.

“Bro!” Ma Rui saw Ma Feng, ecstatic beyond belief, and quickly ran to Ma Feng’s side, pointing at Fang Yi and shouting loudly, “Kid!

My brother is here, you’re done for!”

Fang Yi’s mouth curled in a sneer, “Your brother was nothing but a loser in my hands anyway.

With all your bluster, are you not afraid that I’ll break your other leg later?”

Ma Rui yelled, “Impossible!” but Ma Feng’s silence beside him made Ma Rui somewhat doubtful, and he couldn’t help but whisper, “Brother, this bastard said…”

“It’s true.”

Ma Rui was taken aback, it was true?!

Ma Feng stepped forward, looking at Fang Yi with a sneer, “Kid, I admit you’re pretty good.

I didn’t know your details last time, so you got the better of me.

But this…

the Blue Cloud Bar is my turf.

Even if you are a practitioner, with so many of us here, you won’t be able to escape even with wings.”

Fang Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp gleam flickering within.

He believed he could fight but not without injury.

Ma Feng clearly planned to immobilize Fang Yi with sheer numbers, after all, this bar was Ma Feng’s territory.

Fang Yi was silent for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “If I wanted to leave, you would pay a heavy price.”

Ma Feng sneered, “I’ve been ready for this.”

The air was so thick with tension it had reached a boiling point, and the patrons of the bar had already scattered to avoid getting dragged into the fray.

Just then, a crisp voice rang out.

“Ah, ah, what a lively place this is.

Why is everyone so on edge, trying to scare away my customers and drive me to bankruptcy?”

Though the words seemed teasing, the tone carried an inexplicable chill, and Ma Feng, who had been smirking, suddenly turned pale upon hearing this voice.

The appearance of Bai Jingjing caused a buzz of exclamations and drew the gaze of many men.

She wore a black chiffon dress that accentuated her slender, exquisite body with soft curves, especially her aura of arrogance and disdain for everything, which was enough to invoke a man’s desire to conquer.

When Fang Yi saw Bai Jingjing, he was also surprised, not expecting to encounter her here.

Bai Jingjing walked straight up to Fang Yi, followed by Meng Wei, exuding the presence of a gang boss.

“Li Guang,” said Bai Jingjing, looking at Fang Yi but calling out Li Guang’s name.

“Alliance Hierarch,” Li Guang quickly responded with respect.

Bai Jingjing’s voice was icy, “I appointed you as the manager here to take good care of the bar for me.

Is this how you manage?

Do you know you’re very disappointing?”

“Alliance Hierarch, I…I…” Li Guang stammered, struggling to find words to defend himself.

Bai Jingjing said, “I’ll give you a chance to make amends.

Get this bar back to normal immediately, or else…”

Li Guang nodded hastily and rushed off to take care of it.

Then Bai Jingjing, still looking at Fang Yi, coldly called, “Ma Feng, come here!” She stood with her hands clasped behind her back, exuding an overwhelming authority.

Ma Feng’s face showed hesitation and struggle, but after a brief moment, he still walked forward and stood behind Bai Jingjing, bowing his head respectfully.

“Ma Feng, you bring so many people here, armed with knives and guns, are you looking for trouble with my guards?” Bai Jingjing asked coldly.

Ma Feng clenched his teeth and replied, “No.”

“No?

Then what are you doing bringing so many people here?” Bai Jingjing pressed on.

Sweat was visible on Ma Feng’s forehead as he struggled to utter two words, “Personal grudge.”

“Personal grudge?” Bai Jingjing turned sharply and asked, “Then do you know that he’s my friend?”

“I didn’t know!”

“Good!

I’ll give you a chance!

Ma Feng, take your people and leave this place tomorrow, then go back to your old territory.

From now on, Fang Yi is in charge here.

He will be the person responsible for Blue Cloud Bar, understood?”

Bai Jingjing spoke coldly, not bothering to seek Ma Feng’s opinion.

Anger flared on Ma Feng’s face, yet he could only bow his head and reply, “…Understood.”

Bai Jingjing slightly raised her eyes and commanded, “Since you understand, then get lost!”

Ma Feng turned and left, dragging his brother Ma Rui by the collar as he went.

At this point, the bar gradually returned to normal.

Bai Jingjing turned around again, locked eyes with Fang Yi, and a faint smile emerged on her gorgeous and seductive face, “We meet again.”

Fang Yi replied expressionlessly, “Yes, we meet again.

I’m just thrilled.”

Bai Jingjing said, “But you don’t seem very happy.”

“Really?” Fang Yi responded, forcing out a smile akin to that of a clown, “How about this?”

“That’s barely passable.”
