Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Fake Wife, Needs Extra Pay

The already bustling street corner.

Suddenly became even more lively because of the commotion.

Among the onlookers, Zhou Bin looked fiercely threatening.

Standing there with his hands on his hips, he glowered at Lin Fan with venomous eyes.

"You little shit, let me give you a piece of advice as someone who’s been around, stay away from this woman. She’s bad news!"

"No argument there!"

Lin Fan chuckled and nodded his head.

But his lower back was promptly pinched by Zhao Jiaqi.

"Hey, whose side are you on?"

"I’m just telling it like it is."

Lin Fan grinned slyly and pulled Zhao Jiaqi’s tender body into his arms.

He turned his head to look at Zhou Bin, "But no matter what, she’s my wife, so I’ve got to take this grudge on!"

"You’re taking it on? You think you can handle it?"

Zhou Bin glared at Lin Fan with rage.

Zhao Jiaqi was the one he had long dreamed of possessing.

And now she was in his arms.

This made Zhou Bin burn with jealousy.

"Whether I can handle it or not, we’d find out if we try. But I’d advise you not to disturb my date with my wife, or the consequences could be quite severe!"

Lin Fan toyed with Zhao Jiaqi’s smooth shoulder.

Although she was repulsed, she couldn’t dodge away.

Because she knew what might happen.

"Severe consequences, huh? Alright then, today I’ll let you know exactly what ’severe’ means."

Zhou Bin bore a horrifying gaze.

With a ferocious expression, he roared at his men: "Do it—take him down!"

"Yes!"

About a dozen underlings responded.

They immediately clenched their fists and charged at Lin Fan.

"Husband, you can do it!"

Seeing the scene unfold, Zhao Jiaqi quickly hid behind Lin Fan.

Not forgetting to give a shove on his back.

Pushing him straight into the fray.

"Damn, you’re trying to murder your own husband!"

He seemed to stumble into the crowd.

But Lin Fan took the opportunity to kick out.

Knocking over two people instantly.

"Dare to fight back? Kill him!"

Seeing someone fall, the rest of the dozen men angrily swung their fists to meet him.

But the next second, Lin Fan strangely dodged their punches,

Which then landed on their own comrades.

"Ouch, why are you hitting me..."

"Friendly fire, man..."

"Damn, are you blind!"

Accompanied by a series of curses,

The dozen or so men’s scuffle turned into a brawl among themselves.

Lin Fan was like a slippery eel, easily weaving through the crowd.

Zigzagging and dodging, having a blast.

"Go, hubby, beat them up!"

Zhao Jiaqi shouted excitedly, her face alight with thrill.

But her big eyes were fixed on the crowd slowly approaching from afar.

With a whirl of her eyes, she turned and left.

"Hey, aren’t you guys tired?"

After dozens of moves, Lin Fan stood his ground.

Looking at the dozen or so men across from him with bruised noses and swollen faces.

All these fists had been the result of their own infighting.

"Boss, this guy is weird,"

The underling said, covering his bruised eye, as they looked at Zhou Bin.

They had been fighting for a while and hadn’t managed to touch him.

"How weird can he be?"

Zhou Bin clenched his fists, glaring at Lin Fan with fierce eyes.

"As weird as it can get. If you’re not convinced, you can try,"

Lin Fan said with a smile, beckoning with his fingers: "If you don’t want to die, better get lost. Otherwise, next time, I’ll get serious."

"I’m telling you, in this place, she has quite a few enemies. Do you think you can protect that damn woman, huh?"

Zhou Bin bellowed furiously.

But he didn’t dare take a step forward.

"You won’t know if you can cover it unless you try."

Lin Fan shoved his hands in his pockets and looked around.

The crowd of onlookers was growing by the minute.

"Fine, since you’re looking for death, I’ll oblige you today."

Zhou Bin curled his lip and suddenly turned around.

He yelled loudly to the crowd that had gathered behind him.

"Brothers of Tianku, this kid is Zhao Jiaqi’s man, that damned woman has betrayed so many of our brothers, ruined so many of our deals. Just in Tianku alone, at least a hundred families have gone to jail because of her. Today, I ask you, are we going to take him out?"

"Take him out!"

"Kill him!"

"And kill that damned woman too!"

What was initially a crowd of onlookers suddenly became agitated.

The shouts of hundreds of people took Lin Fan by surprise.

After all, most of those people were just ordinary folks,

But their faces were filled with hatred.

From old men in their fifties and sixties to kids barely in their teens.

The anger in their emotions was not feigned.

"Auntie, did she cheat with your husband?"

Lin Fan looked at a woman in her fifties within the crowd.

Clutching her onions, ginger, and garlic, she looked fierce and malevolent.

"My husband was taken away because she reported him, I’m going to fight you!"

The auntie picked up a big onion from her hand and threw it at Lin Fan.

It was thrown with all her might.

"Come on, this is a matter of life and death."

Such things naturally couldn’t harm Lin Fan.

But looking at that crowd so caught up in their emotions.

He really couldn’t start throwing punches and kicking, could he?

When he turned back to look for Zhao Jiaqi, she had already disappeared without a trace.

This woman actually sold him out.

"Stop him, don’t let him get away!"

"Return my husband to me!"

"Hand over my dad!"

Amidst the commotion in the crowd, Lin Fan naturally took the opportunity to slip away.

With a push off his feet, he dashed into an alley with astonishing speed.

After just a few turns, he had vanished without a trace.

No matter how much the crowd of over a hundred cursed, there was nothing they could do.

"To stir up so much trouble and still dare to come to Tianku, you must be out of your mind."

Tossing the rotten vegetable leaves off his body to the side.

Lin Fan furrowed his brows.

Indeed, she wouldn’t have thought of him if there hadn’t been trouble.

"Hey, this way, hurry over here."

Just as Lin Fan was wandering around,

Zhao Jiaqi’s voice came from the alley.

"I’m telling you, wise guy, you’ve got some nerve running off so fast. After such a big scene, you’re going to have to pay extra!"

Lin Fan walked into the pitch-dark alley.

Looking at Zhao Jiaqi, who was sneaking around,

He truly felt infuriated.

"What can I do? Since ancient times, one cannot serve two masters. Besides, the people in Tianku are all descendants of tomb raiders, just a bunch of tomb thieves in the end. When they commit crimes, as a member of the Dragon Fang, how can I not arrest them? But I’m already being loyal; at least I didn’t betray the path into Tianku. Otherwise, the Dragon Fang would’ve raided this place long ago."

Zhao Jiaqi said with a twist of her mouth.

"I’d advise you to watch your words."

Lin Fan stood with his hands in his pockets, smiling while watching Zhao Jiaqi,

But his gaze was actually fixed on what was behind her.

"Did I say anything wrong? This is a den of thieves after all. I..."

Zhao Jiaqi hadn’t noticed anything.

Just as she was speaking confidently, a tight sensation suddenly gripped her neck.

A strange whip wrapped around her pale neck.

If pulled, the barbed whip would undoubtedly kill her.

"You keep saying this place is a den of thieves, yet you still came in, didn’t you?"

The cold voice of the Saintess echoed behind her,

Chilling her to the bone, making her shiver all over.

"Saintess, I... I was just talking nonsense... Don’t take offense... You know I’m always like this..."

The completely frightened Zhao Jiaqi hurriedly tried to explain.

But the frosty Saintess was unmoved,

Standing there, she said coldly, "I’ve told you before that your mouth would get you killed one day. Don’t forget, I spared you from an in-depth investigation into your dealings with Tianku out of respect for your master. But don’t assume you can live carefree forever. If you dare stand against the people of Tianku again, I won’t hesitate to kill you, and Dragon Fang won’t be able to stop me!"
