Chapter 353: I Forgot He Was One of Us

On the second floor of the bar, several people were watching the commotion with great interest.

"I said they didn't look like they were here to have fun; turns out they're here to brawl. This is getting interesting."

"Care to guess which side wins?"

"Four against six, but there's a big guy on this side, so it's hard to say!"

"Fighting isn't just about who's bigger; having more people is still an advantage, though it really comes down to who fights dirtier."

"Yaoyao, what if your handsome guy gets beaten up? Should we go help?"

"Just watch. I wouldn't even be that surprised if he took them all down by himself!"

Lu Yaoyao rested her hands on the railing, a faint smile appearing on her exquisitely made-up face.

"Come on, being handsome doesn't mean you're good at fighting, okay? Haven't you seen those kept pretty boys? They're all weaklings who cry more dramatically than us after taking a single punch."

The woman said with a dismissive smile.

"He couldn't possibly be that kind of pretty boy. Just watch, I trust my judgment."

Lu Yaoyao's eyes were bright and spirited.

"Heh, don't think too highly of him."

The young man beside her took a sip from his wine glass, his tone full of disdain.

Lu Yaoyao glanced at him sideways and said coldly, "Stay away from me, don't stand next to me."

The young man's expression stiffened, and he watched her without a word.

"Are you leaving or not?"

Lu Yaoyao knitted her brows.

"Tsk!"

The young man clicked his tongue in displeasure and moved over to another young man with a buzz cut.

"Buddy, we've all been hanging out for so long, are you still obsessed? I advise you to change your target as soon as possible?"

The buzz-cut young man patted his shoulder and suggested with a chuckle.

"Get lost!"

"Fine, consider it my meddling, you're on your own then!"

Meanwhile, on the first floor of the bar.

The standoff between Qin Tian's group of four and Liang Yu's group attracted many curious gazes from those around them.

Since there were already many customers and no real commotion had broken out yet, the bar's security guards had not yet noticed the situation here.

"Cao Mingliang, I'll say it again: I have nothing going on with Lv Yanran. Believe it or not, that's up to you."

Liang Yu spoke up again to prove his innocence, wearing an impatient expression.

As he said this, he added to himself: At least for now!

"Doesn't matter. We didn't come here today to listen to your excuses. Just the fact that we find you annoying is enough. We didn't get to fight at the barbecue place last time, so this is the perfect chance to make up for it."

Cao Mingliang sneered.

"Damn, do you really think we're afraid of you!"

Liang Yu was suddenly annoyed as well.

Behind him, several boys' eyes flickered, their expressions clearly hesitant.

Qin Tian was a prominent figure at Jiang University now, and everyone had heard about his affairs to some extent.

Aside from those few times he made them envious and jealous with his public displays of affection, they had also heard about Qin Tian soundly defeating the president of the Taekwondo Club.

And that's not even mentioning Qin Tian; that big guy who was over 1.9 meters tall also looked quite terrifying!

"Guys, once today is over, I'll treat everyone to a meal. It's just a fight, don't be cowards later. That Taekwondo stuff is all for show; he might not be that good."

Liang Yu turned his head to give the others a pep talk.

"Brother Yu is right, we have the numbers, we can't lose."

The short boy chimed in and added, "Besides, because of that Qin Tian, the difficulty of finding a girlfriend at school has gone up quite a bit for us. Everyone must have wanted to beat him up for a long time, right? Today is the perfect opportunity."

As a mole, he was terrified that this fight wouldn't happen, as he wouldn't get the rest of his payoff.

Five thousand yuan—enough for him to buy the latest model phone. Taking a few punches was definitely worth it.

Hearing what the two said, the hesitation on the faces of the other boys vanished, and they glared at Qin Tian with hostility.

They were already sophomores, but pitifully, apart from Liang Yu, they were all basically single since birth.

They felt very bitter toward Qin Tian, who had such a perfect, wealthy, and beautiful girlfriend and spent all day showing off, making it harder for them to find partners.

"Have you thought it through? Do you really have to do this?"

Liang Yu looked at Qin Tian and the others with a cold face.

"You guys talk too much. We're all grown men, why say so much when we can just fight? I can't wait anymore, let's do it!"

Chen Zhuang suddenly shouted and charged directly at Liang Yu and his group.

Liang Yu and his group looked horrified and instinctively took half a step back, clearly not expecting this guy to start fighting the moment he said he would.

"Don't be cowards, all together now!"

The short boy shouted, though he was quietly retreating himself.

He was prepared to take a beating, but he definitely didn't want to get hit by this blockhead, who looked like he didn't know how to pull his punches.

"Damn, Brother Zhuang, why are you stealing the spotlight!"

Once Cao Mingliang realized what was happening, he immediately followed.

Qin Tian smiled helplessly and walked over at a leisurely pace.

"Guys, don't let a few juniors scare you, let's get them!"

Liang Yu roared and led the other boys to meet them.

Very quickly, both sides were locked in a chaotic brawl.

Chen Zhuang, who had charged to the very front, successfully landed a punch on Liang Yu before being pinned by two boys, one on his left and one on his right.

"Is this how you fight? Can't you act like men and let me go?"

Chen Zhuang struggled with all his might, attempting to shake off the two boys.

However, the two boys' faces turned red as they used all their strength to hang onto him, refusing to let go even in death.

Cao Mingliang's target was also very clear; he slammed directly into Liang Yu, who had wanted to return a punch to Chen Zhuang, causing him to stagger backward, and then the two grappled together, both aiming for each other's faces.

Aside from that mole, the last boy looked left and right, his gaze finally landing on Qin Tian, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and bitterness.

Wasn't it agreed that everyone would attack Qin Tian? How did it end up being his turn to solo him alone?

"Ah—"

The boy shouted to bolster his own courage, clenched his fists, and charged at Qin Tian.

Qin Tian dodged his punch and delivered a casual elbow strike to his chest, knocking him straight to the ground.

Naturally, he held back some strength, otherwise, the boy likely wouldn't have been able to take it.

The boy was also quite clever; realizing the gap in combat power, he immediately cried out in pain and lay on the ground, refusing to get up.

Having easily dealt with one person, Qin Tian turned his gaze toward the mole.

The mole glanced at his roommate on the ground, pulled a bitter face, and gave him a look that said, "We're on the same side, go easy on me."

Qin Tian smiled and blinked, signaling that he understood.

"Qin Tian, I've wanted to beat you up for a long time!"

After the short boy felt a sense of relief in his heart, he let out a fierce roar and made a show of rushing over to take a punch.

Just at that moment, he was suddenly tripped by something under his feet, causing him to cry out in alarm and fall face-first into the ground like a dog eating mud.

"Hiss—"

Qin Tian couldn't help but gasp.

This floor was finished with ceramic tiles; seeing such intimate contact between a face and the floor, it looked painful.

It was fortunate that this boy was small; otherwise, if someone with a build like Chen Zhuang had fallen like that, a concussion would have been possible.

Relying on his Skill, Presence Weakness, Zhuang Zhe, who had snuck around to the side of the mole brother at some unknown time and extended his right foot to trip him, wore an expression of innocence.

"What are you doing?"

Qin Tian cast an inquiring look at him.

Zhuang Zhe scratched his head, gave him a shy smile, and replied in a low voice: "Sorry, I forgot he was one of our own."

Qin Tian covered his forehead with his hand and apologized to the mole brother in his heart.

People who have never fought before are actually the ones who might be the most reckless; when their heads get hot, they forget everything, and when they get impulsive, they even hit their own people!
