Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Take Action

"I’m sorry, sir. We’re very happy that you love our brand’s clothes so much, but our store has its own rules which cannot be broken. If you really want this piece of clothing, you can discuss it with these two customers. If they agree to give up purchasing this item, I’ll wrap it up for you. How does that sound?" The staff member smiled politely at the two new customers.

The man originally didn’t want to walk over and talk to Xu Ke, but when his eyes glanced at the cold and elegant Lin Mengyao, he changed his mind. If such a beautiful woman were his, how proud he would be to show her off. The man stroked his double chin and thought.

"Alright, we’ll handle it ourselves." The man waved a hand at the staff and then walked towards Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao, appearing aggressive and not as if he wanted a friendly conversation.

Xu Ke held Lin Mengyao’s hand, silently comforting her.

Sure enough, the first words the man said after stopping in front of them were, "We want this piece of clothing. How much money do you need to give it up? Name your price." The man’s original intent was to make Xu Ke leave, but he was captivated by Lin Mengyao. So he spoke words like these to show off his financial power, hoping Lin Mengyao would look up to him.

Lin Mengyao was like the Queen in his heart. Just being glanced at by her would make him willing to do anything.

The man didn’t know what he was thinking, but his expression slowly turned strange.

Lin Mengyao indeed gave him a glance, but it was filled with endless coldness and disgust.

"We like this piece of clothing very much and won’t give it up to you. You should pick something else." Xu Ke said calmly.

"My sweetheart loves this piece of clothing, and we want it. I’m giving you face by asking for your opinion. I didn’t expect you to have such thick skin, trying to take advantage. Let me tell you, this piece of clothing is mine. If you know what’s good for you, hand over the clothing willingly. I’ll give you a chance to connect with me. Otherwise, even if you do take it out today, I have ways to make it end up in my hands." The man puffed out his chest and looked at Xu Ke from above, using his nostrils.

"Heh." Xu Ke didn’t speak, only slightly parted his lips and gave a cold laugh.

"What are you laughing at? Do you know who he is yet you laugh at him? Believe me, with just one word from him, you’ll be in big trouble." The girl, upon seeing Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao’s disdainful attitudes, exploded and started pointing at Xu Ke’s nose, rattling off words.

"If you apologize to me now and let me have the woman beside you for two days, I’ll forgive your previous rudeness. How about that?" The man said, following the girl’s lead, and the evil glow in his eyes almost stuck to Lin Mengyao.

The girl, who was furious just a moment ago, felt as if her head had been struck with a hammer upon hearing the man’s words, leaving her in confusion. For a moment, she couldn’t hear any sound until she understood the man’s meaning, then she looked at Lin Mengyao with eyes that seemed almost predatory.

Lin Mengyao looked at the two customers who seemed mentally disturbed. On the surface, she remained unchanged, but inside she was rolling her eyes to the heavens.

Xu Ke put away all expressions on his face and, like a leopard on the hunt, looked fiercely at the man and said, "The wind was too strong just now, I didn’t hear you clearly. Can you repeat that?" Xu Ke’s voice was cold without any warmth, but it was full of a bloodthirsty vibe, as if he would pounce if the man’s words still didn’t please him.

But lust clouded his mind. Looking at the petite beauty in his arms and the cold beauty beside Xu Ke, the man silently swallowed, encouraging himself, and stubbornly said to Xu Ke, "I said, kneel down and apologize to me, and let me have the woman beside you." Boldly repeating himself in an attempt to display manliness before the two women.

"It’s been a long long time since someone made such a fearless demand of me. You have courage, but I wonder if your strength matches your courage." Xu Ke stood up from the couch, towering at almost six feet three with perfect proportions, making the man across look not only short and round but also utterly oppressed.

"I admire your courage. Starting today, I’ll have my eye on you to see which of us comes out worse." Xu Ke said in a low voice.

"What are you saying, are you threatening me? Let me tell you, I’m not scared by others. I’ve never bowed to anyone in my life. Do you think I’ll be afraid just because you said that? You’ve really underestimated me." The man looked up at Xu Ke’s beautifully shaped jawline and shouted angrily.

"Don’t you just want this garment? Let me tell you, if I can’t have it, no one else can either." The man’s eyes were filled with determination, and in a split second when no one reacted, he charged at Lin Mengyao, extending his hand with a sinister yet greedy gaze toward her.

His hand was fixedly targeting the clothing Lin Mengyao was wearing as if attempting to strip it from her right there.

Seeing this scene, the fury in Xu Ke’s heart exploded like endless cannon fire, reducing the surroundings to rubble.

Lin Mengyao turned pale as she saw the terrifying action directed towards her.

The man’s hand grew ever closer to Lin Mengyao’s clothing, but just as it was about to touch her clothes, a massive force came from the side of his waist. In the next second, his vision flipped rapidly, and when he looked again, Lin Mengyao was replaced by the store’s crystal chandelier.

It all happened too quickly. Everyone was unprepared, so screams came a bit late.

"Are you alright?" Xu Ke walked to Lin Mengyao’s side, asking with a dark expression.

Lin Mengyao was indeed frightened a bit, but the shock dissipated as Xu Ke kicked the man to the ground, leaving Lin Mengyao silently holding Xu Ke’s hand to comfort him, telling him, "I’m fine."

Meanwhile, the man on the ground was surrounded by intense pain. He lay there wailing loudly but fortunately kept clean and tidy amidst this chaos thanks to the store’s pristine environment.

"Are you alright?" The girl crouched in front of the man, asking with some panic.

"I’m in so much pain that I’m fucking dying, how could I be alright? Quick, call me an ambulance, and call my dad. I want my dad to take revenge for me, I want to destroy you." The man glared venomously at Xu Ke before saying to the girl beside him, "Keep an eye on them, don’t let them run away. They must pay the price." The man said weakly, enduring the pain.

"I know, I know." The girl took out her phone from her bag, looking a bit flustered as her hands trembled, taking a long time to unlock her phone.
