Chapter 477: Chapter 487: You Can’t, But I Can

Zheng Mingrui sneered and said, "Sunx Dongming, if you’ve got the guts, just try me. If Zheng Mingrui is scared of you, I’ll write my Zheng upside down."

Sunx Dongming’s face grew even colder; he leaned in close to Zheng Mingrui and said sinisterly, "That’s right, you’re not afraid to die, I believe that. But some people do fear death. For example, some older folks, and some younger ones. If I recall correctly, don’t you have a sister? I’d really like to have a taste of her." As he spoke, Sunx Dongming licked his lips and looked down on Zheng Mingrui with a contemptuous gaze.

Zheng Mingrui’s face instantly changed color; he reached out and grabbed Sunx Dongming by the collar, furiously shouting, "You dare!"

"Do you think I dare or not?" Sunx Dongming raised his hands with a grin, still looking at Zheng Mingrui with a smirk.

Zheng Mingrui was so angry his face turned blue, he balled up his fist ready to hit Sunx Dongming, but Sunx Dongming didn’t even try to dodge, still smiling at Zheng Mingrui. Li Yifei, with a quick step, rushed over and grabbed Zheng Mingrui’s wrist.

"Boss!" Zheng Mingrui turned his head to look at Li Yifei, his fists cracking with the force of his grip. It was only because Li Yifei had stopped him; nobody else could have.

"Don’t act rashly, if you do this, you’ll be fired on the spot," Li Yifei said, pointing to a person hiding at the back on the opposite side. That guy was skulking behind, busy filming it all on his cellphone.

There are some rules within the Flying Hawk Squad. It’s fine to beat each other into pig heads during training in the squad, but private fighting outside is strictly forbidden. If discovered, dismissal is certain.

Although Zheng Mingrui was currently the second-in-command of the Flying Hawk Squad, his power had been greatly diminished lately. Plus, the current number one really wanted him out. If the video of Zheng Mingrui hitting someone was sent back, his dismissal would be assured.

The previous altercation had been too sudden for anyone to film, but now the setup was complete, just waiting for Zheng Mingrui to lose his cool.

Sunx Dongming provocatively looked at Zheng Mingrui and said, "What’s up? You chicken out? I thought you guys believed that only strength mattered? If you have the guts, hit me again."

Zheng Mingrui glared at Sunx Dongming hatefully and slowly let go. If he really hit him here, he would certainly be dismissed from the Flying Hawk Squad. For a member of the squad, being dismissed would hurt more than death.

Sunx Dongming straightened his collar, addressing Zheng Mingrui, "Wow, so you backed down. And to think you’re the team captain. Heh, but considering you’re at least aware of the real deal, when I play with your sister, at most I’ll bring two guys, not too many, so she won’t be overwhelmed."

"Fuck!"

"Sunx Dongming, you son of a bitch!"

"Are you even a man?"

The members of the Flying Hawk Squad started cursing. Sunx Dongming’s behavior was despicable. Not only had he infuriated Zheng Mingrui, but the others were seething to the point their lungs might explode. They all wanted to rush in regardless of the consequences, intent on beating Sunx Dongming to a pulp first and foremost.

Li Yifei spread his arms to stop them, bellowing, "All of you, hands off!"

"Boss! Let us beat this punk. Even if we get fired, I need to smack him one," Zhou Qiang roared angrily.

Another member shouted, "Exactly, boss, don’t hold us back! I can’t take this humiliation; I’ll leave the squad if I have to, but I must hit him."

Sunx Dongming took a step back. Although he had wanted to see this, the situation was getting heated, and if these people really gave him a beating, his life might be at stake.

"Shut up, all of you!" Li Yifei suddenly yelled.

All the members fell silent. They had the utmost respect for Li Yifei, their captain, and even though they were still seething inside, they stopped.

Seeing Li Yifei manage to contain the impulsive bunch, Sunx Dongming felt disappointed, yet he also let out a sigh of relief. He laughed, "Old captain, you still command quite the presence, quieting everyone down with just a word."

Li Yifei’s face remained calm as he looked at Sunx Dongming, saying nothing.

Sunx Dongming chuckled, "Old captain, I’ve been around since your time in charge. I ought to show some respect, but this guy dared to seduce my fiancée. I have to ruin him; I can’t sell you that respect."

Lin Wanqing furiously exclaimed, "Sun Dongming, haven’t you had enough, do you find this amusing?"

With a haha laugh, Sun Dongming’s laughter abruptly ceased, and with a dark look on his face, he said, "Of course, it’s amusing. The girl I, Sun Dongming, take a fancy to cannot be touched by anyone else. Not only will I deal with him, but his family too, no one will be spared."

Zheng Mingrui’s body shuddered again, but Li Yifei steadied him by the shoulder, gave him a slight smile, and as Mingrui met Yifei’s gaze, he took a deep breath and nodded. He completely trusted Yifei and understood that acting impulsively now would not be of any benefit to him.

Seeing that under his verbal assault, Zheng Mingrui still didn’t retaliate, Sun Dongming felt even more irritated and spoke with added malice, "Zheng Mingrui, are you even a man, having such little courage? Don’t you have your eyes set on my fiancée? In front of a woman, you turn into a spineless wimp. And you still want to chase after my fiancée? That’s like a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh, haha. Or maybe after I’ve had my way with your sister, you can try yourself, I bet that’s all the courage you have, to only dare to set your sights on your sister."

"Boss, don’t hold me back, I want to kill him!" Zhou Qiang begged Li Yifei, veins popping on his forehead with anger behind Yifei.

"Exactly, boss, don’t stop us, we can’t take this lying down."

Li Yifei turned around, looked at his former comrades-in-arms and smiled faintly, "Have you thought about it? If you act on impulse like this, you’ll definitely be kicked out of the squad."

"Boss, I’d rather not be in the squad. Even if I become an ordinary person, I can’t stand to tolerate him!"

"Boss, worst comes to worst, I’ll just follow you after. Staying in this squad isn’t meaningful to me anymore."

Everyone was clamoring, determined to deal with Sun Dongming and his cronies, when Li Yifei’s expression darkened, "If you beat up this guy, and the squad ends up being dominated by such jerks afterward, have you thought about what will become of it? Do you really want to stand by and watch a squad with years of glory crumble at our hands?"

The crowd fell silent, unable to speak. The Flying Hawk Squad had always been their pride; every member took pride in belonging to the Flying Hawk Squad. If the Flying Hawk Squad were to fall because of them, they would be eternal sinners, unable to face the squad’s ancestors even in death.

Suddenly, Li Yifei declared, "Remember, you are members of the squad, the squad is your honor, and no one can destroy your squad!"

This roused everyone’s emotions instantly; all members, including Zheng Mingrui, snapped to attention, standing ramrod straight.

Li Yifei nodded in satisfaction, "Good, you’ve all done well. But don’t think our brothers can be bullied by just anyone."

The men’s eyes lit up. If Yifei said that, it meant he was going to strike back, something all were well aware of. Yet under these circumstances, they were all filled with anticipation, not knowing how Yifei would proceed.

"You’re squad members, but I’m not. You can’t fight your squad mates, but I can beat up anyone I don’t like. Today, I’ll avenge the grievances you’ve suffered for you."

With these words, Li Yifei turned into a hunting leopard, and with a swift twist, he had already charged towards Sun Dongming.

Feeling the imminent threat as Li Yifei spoke, Sun Dongming hurriedly backed away. Were it any other squad member, he might have found some room to maneuver, but he was far less skilled than any real member of the squad, and his reaction speed was lacking. As soon as he moved, Li Yifei had already collided into his embrace.

Sun Dongming felt as if he had been hit by a tank; his legs involuntarily left the ground, and his body flew out like a cannonball. It was only while airborne that he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out of his mouth mid-air.

Li Yifei did not let up; his feet pushed off, chasing after Sun Dongming’s airborne body, and his hands flew in a flurry, a series of crisp slapping sounds ensued until Sun Dongming’s body hit the ground, and the slapping ceased.

But Li Yifei didn’t stop after hitting Sun Dongming. He immediately rushed towards the others who came with Sun Dongming, throwing punches and kicks, hitting his targets with every move. In the blink of an eye, six more were laid out on the ground by Yifei.

"You... you..." Sun Dongming’s face was swollen like buns, his entire face resembled a pig’s head, and as he spit out another mouthful of blood, he pointed at Li Yifei, his hands trembling uncontrollably. He had not expected that Li Yifei would lay a hand on him after holding back the Flying Hawk Squad members.

"You lot of scum, it’s one thing to bully others in the squad, but to lord it over others here too? Today I’ll beat you up to see what you can do about it."

Sun Dongming pointed at Li Yifei, gasping in anger without drawing breath until his head lolled, and with a thud, he collapsed to the ground, passed out.

Zheng Mingrui and the others cheered, crowding around Li Yifei. Today, Yifei had vented their rage, the old squad leader still had that domineering style, and watching the sorry state of the others, they felt an immense satisfaction.

However, at that moment, Zheng Mingrui started to worry. Yifei wasn’t part of the Flying Hawk Squad anymore, and by beating up Sun Dongming and his crew, things might get even more troublesome.
