My Super Beautiful Lady Boss
Chapter 174 - 174 174 Standing Up for Justice

174: Chapter 174: Standing Up for Justice 174: Chapter 174: Standing Up for Justice When several people saw Su Xuan’s contemptuous demeanor, they no longer paused for thought and immediately swung their sticks at him, but they didn’t expect that Su Xuan would suddenly lift Wang Sheng to block the blows.

The sticks mercilessly struck Wang Sheng, causing him to scream like a slaughtered pig.

Su Xuan then threw the hefty Wang Sheng toward his attackers.

Being a rather large man, Wang Sheng struck them like a missile, instantly scattering the men in terror—those who could, ran away; those who couldn’t were injured by the human projectile, suffering broken bones.

Afterward, Su Xuan walked over to the obese Wang Sheng, who looked back at Su Xuan as if he were staring at a demon, his heart pounding with fright as he swallowed hard.

“What, what do you want to do?” Wang Sheng asked, terror evident in his eyes.

“What do I want to do?

You took someone’s land and drove them to desperation; I couldn’t stand by and watch,” Su Xuan said as he grabbed Wang Sheng, glaring at him intensely.

Feeling the pain from the beating surge back as Su Xuan grabbed him, Wang Sheng yelled out, begging Su Xuan to stop.

Su Xuan, following his pleas, paused and continued, “So, are you going to do as I say?”

“Yes, yes,” Wang Sheng, utterly terrified by Su Xuan, didn’t dare defy him.

“Good, then return his ten acres to him,” Su Xuan demanded next.

Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng was stunned and said, “Brother, I only took one acre of his land.

Why should I return ten acres to him?”

“Yes, he truly only took one acre of my land; returning just that one acre would suffice,” Li Gousheng chimed in from the side.

“Did I say you should only return one acre?” Su Xuan said, glaring at Wang Sheng when he heard his hesitant response.

Each time Wang Sheng saw Su Xuan’s glaring eyes, he thought he was about to be hit, prompting him to quickly respond, “Agreed, agreed, I agree—isn’t that enough!”

“Of course it’s not enough,” Su Xuan stated, standing to the side.

Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng was instantly dumbfounded, unsure what trick Su Xuan was about to pull next.

Su Xuan continued, “Didn’t you just hit him?

Normally, shouldn’t he get to hit you back?”

Wang Sheng, upon hearing this, visibly recoiled as if about to cry, pleading with Su Xuan, “Brother, please spare me.

You’ve already beaten me up like this, and I’ve agreed to give him ten times the land.

Isn’t that enough?

Why do I still need to get hit?”

“Yes, as long as he returns my land, I won’t hit him,” Li Gousheng added, visibly trembling at the thought of hitting Wang Sheng, fearing future retaliation.

However, Su Xuan seemed unimpressed and said to the obese Wang Sheng, “If he doesn’t hit you, then I will.

Choose one.”

Hearing this, Wang Sheng was petrified, inwardly lamenting this unscrupulous person as even worse than himself, yet with no alternative.

Knowing what would happen if Su Xuan hit him, he begrudgingly told Su Xuan, “Fine, let him hit me.”

Thus, Su Xuan signaled Li Gousheng to come over.

Li Gousheng approached, trembling, as Su Xuan instructed him, “He hit you—now you hit him the same way.

Go on!”

After hearing this, Li Gousheng glanced at Wang Sheng, who glared back menacingly, causing Li Gousheng to hesitate.

“Hit him,” Su Xuan urged from the side.

So, Li Gousheng gave a gentle nudge with his foot to Wang Sheng.

“Didn’t I tell you, the way he hit you, you hit him.

Did he hit you like that?” Su Xuan, seeing how timid Li Gousheng was, glared and shouted at him.

Frightened, Li Gousheng immediately fell to his knees, begging Su Xuan, “Big brother, please spare me, I really can’t go through with it.”

“Fine, since you can’t do it, I’ll do it for you!” Su Xuan said and made a motion as if to hit someone.

Seeing Su Xuan about to hit him, Wang Sheng panicked and quickly said to Li Gousheng, “Let you hit me then, just hit me—I won’t retaliate, please, just hit me.”

Li Gousheng, also feeling helpless, walked over to Wang Sheng and delivered a kick.

“Hit harder,” Su Xuan instructed from the side.

Hearing this, Li Gousheng glanced again at Wang Sheng.

“When I say hit harder, just do it—why are you looking at me!” Wang Sheng, fearing another beating from Su Xuan, shouted at Li Gousheng.

Thump.

Taking a deep breath, Li Gousheng mustered all his strength and kicked Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng instantly cried out in pain and rolled on the ground.

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction and then walked over to Wang Sheng, saying, “Remember this, if I ever see you bullying him again, I’ll never let you off the hook.”

After saying that, Su Xuan led Bai Xue away, leaving a stunned Li Gousheng and Wang Sheng behind.

Walking on the rural path, Bai Xue said to Su Xuan, “I had no idea you were so keen on standing up for others!”

Su Xuan instantly made a face deserving a punch, responding to Bai Xue, “Then you better take a good look.

Your husband has many virtues, and standing up for others is just one of them.”

Bai Xue immediately rolled her eyes at him, retorting, “You get winded just by someone calling you fat.

You don’t know the meaning of subtlety.”

Su Xuan remained unapologetically smug.

Meanwhile, the mayor’s son, Gou Dan, who had been beaten by Su Xuan, went home and told his father, the mayor.

The mayor, named Wang Shan, was heartbroken to see his son beaten up, especially Gou Dan’s mother, who, after seeing her son coming home covered in bruises, immediately started fussing over him.

When she learned that Su Xuan was the one who had hit her son, she immediately grabbed a kitchen knife and went to chop Su Xuan.

Fortunately, Gou Dan and his father managed to hold her back; otherwise, she would have really rushed out, never to look back.

Although they stopped Gou Dan’s mother, it didn’t quell her rage.

She yelled at Gou Dan’s father, “I don’t care, my son was beaten up, and you must avenge him.

If you don’t kill that Su Xuan, I will kill you.”

At this, the mayor shuddered, knowing his wife was a woman of her word.

But as a mayor, having to personally handle such a trivial matter as dealing with a kid seemed like overkill.

So, the mayor ordered his men to inform Wang Sheng to gather some people and teach Su Xuan a lesson.

However, the subordinate returned and reported that Wang Sheng was in the hospital recuperating, apparently also beaten by Su Xuan.

At this, the mayor was furious, thinking to himself that he was second to none in this town.

It was bad enough that Su Xuan had come without greeting, but to first injure his son and then his nephew was too much.

At that moment, a subordinate suggested to the mayor that there were actual small-time hooligans in the town who did nothing but flirt and fight all the time.

It would be a good opportunity to use them to trouble Su Xuan.

The mayor nodded and said, “Alright, handle this yourself, but make sure they don’t know it’s me sending them, and make sure it’s done cleanly.”

The subordinate nodded, understanding the boss’s intent, and went to find those hooligans.

Meanwhile, as the day was about to end without any disturbances at Su Xuan’s end, Bai Xue became anxious for Su Xuan.

She asked him, “Do you even have a plan?

You’ve been standing up for others all day and haven’t settled the task my dad assigned you.”

However, Su Xuan, relaxed and lying on the bed with his eyes closed, told Bai Xue, “Who said I haven’t been thinking about your dad’s task?

I’ve already figured it out!”

Upon hearing this, Bai Xue immediately became excited and started pestering Su Xuan, “What is it!

What is it!

Tell me quickly.”

Su Xuan, still with his eyes closed, replied to Bai Xue, “Didn’t you tell me?

Your dad has an old wish he hasn’t fulfilled.”

“Ah, you mean the old house and the old shop?

That’s not a small matter, and it requires a lot of money.

Where will you get the money from?”

After hearing Su Xuan’s words, Bai Xue immediately felt disappointed, knowing they only had two days, or rather, now only one day left.

They both had no money, and redeeming the old house and shop seemed like foolish dreams.

“You don’t need to worry about that, I have my ways!” Su Xuan said mysteriously.

Bai Xue immediately gave Su Xuan a look of irritation, “Hmph, never mind then.

I didn’t really want to know!”

Later in the evening, after dinner, Su Xuan and Bai Xue went for a walk on the dimly lit streets.

Looking up at Su Xuan, Bai Xue sighed, “How wonderful it would be if we could just live like this forever!”

Su Xuan didn’t reply but gently touched Bai Xue’s head.

Just then, from out of nowhere, about twenty people appeared, each armed with machetes and baseball bats.

A group surrounded Su Xuan and Bai Xue.

Among them, a tall bald man said to Su Xuan, “Hey, lucky guy, getting yourself a big star from our town, let your brothers have a turn, I still don’t know what it’s like to be with a star!”

Laughing erupted from the crowd, and another long-haired man wielding a machete chimed in, “Brother Hu, after you’re done, can you let me have a go?

I’ve never been with a woman before!”

The crowd burst into larger laughter as the evening darkened, few passersby hurried by without stopping.

The previously speaking Brother Hu responded, “You’re ambitious, kid, aiming for a star for your first time.

You’re lucky too!”

“Who sent you?” Su Xuan asked coldly amid another burst of laughter from the crowd.
