Overbearing Immortal Doctor
Chapter 179 - 179 179 Full of Confusion

179: Chapter 179: Full of Confusion 179: Chapter 179: Full of Confusion “What’s going on?

Are you okay?” Zhou Dong asked Wu Xiaoyu.

He wasn’t really worried about Wu Xiaoyu’s safety, but rather concerned that Wu Xiaoyu might have beaten those two guys too badly.

Two police officers came in, somewhat displeased, and said, “Why did it take so long to open the door?

What exactly are you doing?

Who called the police just now?”

Niu Zhigang timidly stepped forward and said, “It…

it was me.”

The officer saw his swollen face, clearly beaten, and quickly asked, “What happened to you?

Did you get into a fight?

Tell me the details…”

Before he could finish speaking, the heavily made-up woman also stepped forward, wiped her tears, and said, “We…

we just had a little quarrel…”

The officer saw the injuries on her face and believed her words more, saying, “A quarrel?

What’s the relationship between you two?”

Niu Zhigang replied, “We are a couple.

We had a fight over some trivial matters and got a bit physical.

It’s nothing…

nothing serious.

We’ve already made up, made up!”

Then, he reached out and hugged the heavily made-up woman, smiling, “We’ve already made up, it’s nothing…

really nothing.

Sorry to trouble you!”

The officer put away his notebook and lectured, “Getting physical over trivial matters?

If you weren’t a couple, I would have taken you both in.

In the future, talk things through calmly and don’t cause trouble all the time!”

“Yes…

yes!

We know…

we know, sorry to trouble you!” The two replied in unison.

Zhou Dong was baffled by their behavior, turning his gaze to Wu Xiaoyu as if looking at a monster.

Zhou Dong, seeing Mr.

Niu, so arrogant a moment ago now so obedient after being managed by Wu Xiaoyu in such a short time, whispered, “Xiaoyu, what did you do to him?”

Wu Xiaoyu turned and smiled, whispering back, “A wise man’s strategies, how could a mere mortal like you comprehend?”

Zhou Dong rolled his eyes, kicked him lightly, and sat on a nearby sofa, watching Mr.

Niu’s performance.

After being dealt with by Wu Xiaoyu’s magic, Niu Zhigang became much more docile, completely losing his earlier arrogance, being very polite to the officers, looking like a model citizen.

The officers saw it as merely a lovers’ quarrel, didn’t take it too seriously, reprimanded them a bit, and then left.

Seeing the officers leave, Niu Zhigang and his companion instantly looked dispirited, tremblingly approaching Wu Xiaoyu and tentatively asking, “Can we…

can we leave now?”

Wu Xiaoyu nodded, and the two sighed in relief, rushing toward the door.

Just as they were about to step out, Wu Xiaoyu suddenly said:

“Just a friendly reminder, if you dare spread what happened just now, you’ll end up with your intestines rotted out, got it?”

Hearing the threat, the two shuddered and immediately nodded repeatedly, “Got it…

we won’t…

we won’t!”

Seeing the two about to escape, Zhou Dong quickly said, “They haven’t paid the bill yet!

Xiaoyu, take them to settle the bill!”

Niu Zhigang and his companion nodded and bowed at Xiaoyu by the door, then followed her downstairs to pay.

Watching the two retreating figures, Zhou Dong couldn’t help but ask, “What did you do to them?

These two arrogant guys, why are they so obedient to you?”

Wu Xiaoyu hadn’t even told his parents about his cultivation, naturally, he wouldn’t tell Zhou Dong.

He changed the subject, “Let’s not talk about this.

Do you know why they came to cause trouble?”

Cause trouble?

Zhou Dong was puzzled.

Weren’t they just bullying because Xiaoyu accidentally spilled soup on them?

Wu Xiaoyu explained, “It’s still that guy Wang Baishan!

They were sent by him.

Didn’t Xiaoyu say she tripped over that guy’s foot, causing the soup to spill?

The whole thing was set up by these two!”

Zhou Dong was increasingly incredulous.

Niu Zhigang’s father was a power-wielder in the county.

Why would he be ordered around by Wang Baishan?

If this was true, Wang Baishan must have a deep background.

Otherwise, why go through these low-level tricks instead of just demolishing the restaurant outright?

Although Wu Xiaoyu had a rough idea of the secrets involved, he didn’t plan to tell Zhou Dong.

Recently, Wang Baishan hadn’t dared to openly provoke, so why make Zhou Dong worry too?

“Don’t think too much about it.

Just manage the restaurant, and I’ll take care of these matters,” Wu Xiaoyu comforted.

Seeing this native of Longhe Town speak so confidently, Zhou Dong no longer worried about Wang Baishan.

After all, Wu Xiaoyu understood Wang Baishan better than he did.

If Wu Xiaoyu was so confident, he must be able to handle it.

Just as the two were about to discuss restaurant matters, Li Qianqian from next door suddenly burst in.

Seeing only the two of them in the room, she reluctantly said:

“It’s over already?

I thought I’d come over after my show to watch the fun.

How boring!”

Watch the fun?

You heartless thing!

You eat my food, stay in my place, and instead of showing some gratitude, you just want to watch me in trouble?

Wu Xiaoyu cursed inwardly.

Niu Zhigang and his companion had just left Jiji when they saw a black Audi not far away.

Just as they were about to pretend not to see it and hurry away, the rear window rolled down, revealing a bright bald head.

“Get in!” Bald said.

Reluctantly and with some fear, the two walked around to the other side and got in the car.

Once the driver started driving, Wang Baishan asked impatiently, “Why did you come out so soon?

I didn’t hear any commotion from Jiji.”

Niu Zhigang pouted and, holding back his resentment, said, “Brother Wang, can’t you see my face?”

Wang Baishan turned to take a closer look at Niu Zhigang and saw his swollen face, clearly beaten.

“How…

how did this happen, Brother Niu?

Did you call the police to have them arrested?” Wang Baishan asked with feigned concern and sympathy.

Before Niu Zhigang could speak, the heavily made-up woman in the front seat turned and said sadly, “Brother Wang, don’t call on us for such things in the future.

We just want to live freely.”

Wang Baishan frowned at her words, his face darkening.

Niu Zhigang quickly apologized, “Lele doesn’t mean what she says, Brother Wang, please don’t mind her…”

Forcing a smile, Wang Baishan said, “Of course not.

But still, I didn’t hear any commotion from Jiji at all.

Why didn’t you make a scene when you were beaten up?

The customers inside would surely stand with you.

Why did you just run away like this?

This isn’t like you, Mr.

Niu.”

Niu Zhigang cursed inwardly.

You try it!

Make a scene?

I barely got out alive and you want me to keep provoking that demon?

I’d like to live a few more years!

Seeing his silence, Wang Baishan further provoked, “What?

Got beaten up and that’s it?

So weak!”

The heavily made-up woman turned back again, discouraged, “Weak is better.

I’m not going back to Jiji.”

Wang Baishan was both angry and puzzled by their behavior.

Why had these two arrogant guys become so docile?
