Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Yang Ming, You’re So Handsome

So the two of them arrived at the bank, exchanged for six hundred taels of silver, but just as they stepped into the alley, they were surrounded by five ruffians.

Not good, they had encountered a robbery, and she definitely didn’t want the silver they had just obtained to fly away! What to do?

As she thought this, she saw her makeshift husband protectively move her behind him and whisper, "As soon as I start fighting, you run!"

Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened, she was panicking now. There were five of them, and last time Yang Ming was at a disadvantage even against three, and now it was even worse.

"Hand over the silver if you know what’s good for you!" The young thug brandished a stick, slapping it into his hand repeatedly, shouting aggressively.

"Who sent you? Do you perhaps recognize Wang Kui?" Yang Ming thought it was worth mentioning Wang Kui; maybe they could avoid disaster.

"Wang Kui? We’re not in the same league as Wang Kui!" The thug completely disregarded Wang Kui, seeing that Xiaoxiao and him did not seem intent on handing over the silver, "Brothers, let’s go!"

"Run fast!" Yang Ming, seeing the situation, immediately pushed Xiaoxiao and shouted, then faced the five ruffians head-on.

Xiaoxiao hadn’t even had time to react before the sounds of scuffling began.

At that moment, one of the thugs was already heading towards Xiaoxiao, his club raised high. "Xiaoxiao, be careful!" Before she knew it, Yang Ming had come up to embrace Xiaoxiao, using his own back to take the blow for her.

Perhaps driven by the desire to protect his wife, Yang Ming became incredibly strong at that moment, able to fight against five, and in a lull, he pulled out a sharp knife from his bosom and struck at an opponent’s arm.

Bright red blood seeped through the enemy’s clothes, causing them to scream "Ah ah" in agony, echoing throughout the alley.

Xiaoxiao was astounded, wondering when her makeshift husband had hidden a knife! He was too cool, like a hero saving the beauty.

Seeing their bloodied comrade, the other thugs’ eyes turned bloodshot, and they charged at Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming again.

But Yang Ming’s resurgence made Xiaoxiao unafraid. She rushed to help Yang Ming, taking advantage of the enemy’s unpreparedness, lifted her leg, and kicked hard between the thug’s legs, "I’ll make you regret having descendants!"

"Ahh!" The thug, hit by Xiaoxiao’s kick, immediately dropped his stick, clutching his groin, hopping around on the spot.

"That’s for daring to think about robbing Zhong Xiaoxiao, don’t you know I prefer silver over life when it comes to huge sums of money!"

Xiaoxiao kicked several men in quick succession, seeing them all clutching themselves. She then grabbed Yang Ming’s hand, "Yang Ming, run fast!"

The two dashed out of the alley, panting heavily as they ran a good distance before stopping, seeing that no one was in pursuit.

"Xiaoxiao, are you alright?"

Once they stopped, Yang Ming urgently inquired, afraid she might have been hurt.

"I’m completely fine. Yang Ming, quick, check if the silver has fallen!" After all, it was a huge sum of money!

"..." He had been beaten up like this, and his wife was still worried about the silver! He was less important than silver, "The silver is all here!"

"Yang Ming, when did you start carrying a knife!"

"Hmm, it’s for self-defense!" Actually, after being powerless in front of those deadbeats and brawny men those previous times, he felt useless, as if all his muscles were for nothing, only good for taking hits, not giving them.

He wanted to protect his wife, so he had been secretly practicing some fighting techniques and had gotten a knife for self-defense. He hadn’t expected to use it today, but facing five against one, if it weren’t for his wife’s help, he would have been at a disadvantage again. It seemed he needed to train more once he got back!

"Yang Ming, you were so cool! Absolutely amazing, I’m starting to admire you!"

"..." Cool? Amazing? Yes, he understands admiration! His wife was beginning to like him!
