Return to the City: The Strongest King
Chapter 707 - 708

Chapter 707: 708

These two guys were among the three people Song Xiaodong and his group encountered on the airplane, one being Zeng Yuxian and the other Qiao Haiqing.

For the past few days, they had been trying to find Song Xiaodong and the others, but even after checking all the hotels, they couldn’t find any trace of them, which made them consider giving up. Who knew that today, just by casually coming to eat some rice noodles, they would run into Song Xiaodong and his group again.

Knowing that Song Xiaodong was not to be trifled with, the two of them quickly retreated, and then immediately called Cao Nanfei.

"Nanfei, you have to get to the snack street fast. That guy we met on the airplane, along with those four beauties, are here eating right now," one of them said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Cao Nanfei was overjoyed and immediately responded, "Damn, I’ve finally caught them. Keep an eye on them, I’m going to get some people together right away. This time we’re going to deal with them for good."

"No problem, but hurry up. Otherwise, if they finish eating and leave, it’ll be hard for us to keep up," the other replied.

The two stopped thinking about eating and secretly hid in a corner outside, keeping watch on the entrance of the rice noodle shop. With the constant stream of people coming and going, they believed they wouldn’t be discovered.

Although these two chumps thought they were well hidden, how could their poor effort at concealment possibly escape Song Xiaodong’s detection?

From the moment they walked in, he had seen them; even though they were hiding there, their sneaky glances had been directly felt by Song Xiaodong.

"Someone is looking to trouble us," Song Xiaodong remarked only after they had finished their rice noodles.

"Looking for trouble? Who’s looking to trouble us?" Xiao Yingying, far from being scared, was actually excited upon hearing this. Although she knew how formidable Song Xiaodong was, she never really had the chance to witness it with her own eyes.

"The same people who were trouble on the airplane. Let’s go, can’t be bothered with them," Song Xiaodong said.

"Don’t be like that. This could be so much fun, Brother Dongzi, let’s just go and play a bit," Xiao Yingying implored, taking hold of Song Xiaodong’s hand and acting coquettishly.

Miao Xuanxuan, who was always up for stirring things up, agreed with Xiao Yingying’s suggestion.

Shui Qingyue, however, hesitated, saying, "Big Brother Song’s current status is not ordinary, and if somebody took pictures and posted them online, it wouldn’t look good."

"It’s fine, it’s fine. We’ll just find a quiet place. If they really want to cause trouble, they won’t be brazen about it; they’ll definitely look for somewhere more secluded too," Xiao Yingying said as though she had plenty of experience with this sort of thing.

Song Xiaodong chuckled and then said, "Alright, since we’re here, we might as well settle this; we’d probably run into them sooner or later anyway. Taking care of them now will save you from trouble when I’m not around."

The group paid their bill and left, casually strolling through the snack street, picking up some snacks to eat on the way, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Zeng Yuxian and Qiao Haiqing discreetly followed behind them. When the group turned around, the two pretended to busy themselves by buying something from other stalls, thinking themselves to be clever trackers. However, their clumsy actions were so apparent that even the stall owners noticed, let alone Song Xiaodong and his group. Xiao Yingying and Miao Xuanxuan could barely contain their laughter, while Shui Qingyue and Lin Su’er also struggled to hold back theirs.

After leaving the snack street, Song Xiaodong and his party didn’t go far before turning into a very quiet alley.

Just as they entered, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from behind, and then seven people rushed over, suddenly surrounding Song Xiaodong and his group.

"Kid, what a coincidence to see you again," Cao Nanfei declared with a triumphant look as he faced Song Xiaodong.

"Oh... It’s you three idiots again," Song Xiaodong glanced over and saw that besides these three, there were another five who looked like typical gangster types.

Cao Nanfei said angrily, "Fuck, you can really put on an act. On the plane last time, I let it go, but you ran off too fast after we landed. This time I’d like to see where you can run."

"Do I need to run from a few idiots like you?" Song Xiaodong smiled faintly and said, "So you want to beat me up now, and then take my girl away?"

Cao Nanfei glared and said, "You... Stop talking nonsense, what do you think?"

"You really want to steal my girl?" Song Xiaodong narrowed his eyes a bit more.

Cao Nanfei didn’t actually have the guts to forcibly take a girl away, but since things had gotten to this point, not making such a statement would be too humiliating, so he blurted out, "Yes! What are you that you get all these pretty chicks? I’m going to settle the score with you today and have some fun with your women."

"Great!" Song Xiaodong spat out two words, then stepped forward and was already in front of Cao Nanfei, reaching out to choke him by the neck and lifted him straight up.

"You..." Cao Nanfei’s face turned red with the effort of struggling, but he could not break free.

"Fuck! Get him!" Zeng Yuxian and Qiao Qinghai shouted as they rushed toward Song Xiaodong with their fists flying, and the other five people also went straight into action.

Song Xiaodong, with one hand pointing at Cao Nanfei, stood still. With his other hand, he swung carelessly, keeping those guys from getting anywhere near him, while they got hit several times by Song Xiaodong and wailed from the pain.

Truth be told, Song Xiaodong could have knocked them all to the ground instantly, but he was intentionally messing with them just for Xiao Yingying’s amusement.

After a while, those guys were all beaten up by Song Xiaodong to the point of having black eyes and swollen faces, with two of them even bleeding from the nose, each one looking more miserable than the last.

And Song Xiaodong had already thrown Cao Nanfei aside and given him a good beating, too. Beating him up like this seemed even more fun than just choking him by the neck.

"Haha, that guy is so dumb, he’s been knocked down eight times already."

"This one’s been down seven times, ah dear, his nose is bleeding, so pitiful."

Xiao Yingying and Miao Xuanxuan were still making snide comments from the sidelines.

This was an embarrassing defeat for Cao Nanfei and his group. Despite their obvious numerical advantage—eight against one—they should have been able to overpower the opponent, but as the fight continued, each of them was being beaten so badly that they were genuinely afraid to keep attacking.

At that moment, Cao Nanfei’s phone began to ring. He quickly retreated to the side, and seeing the number, he was immediately overjoyed. Hurriedly answering, he said, "Greetings, Sixth Young Master Su."

"Huh, why is it so noisy there?"

"Don’t worry, we’re fighting. We can’t handle one guy with eight of us. Can you please come over and help out?"

"No problem, I just so happen to have some skilled people with me, and I’m bored anyway. Tell me the place, and I’ll come join the fun."

After hanging up, Cao Nanfei laughed triumphantly and said, "Stop, guys, let’s just wait. Sixth Young Master Su is about to bring people over. Then we’ll see how this kid dies!"
