It seemed these people weren't easy to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff found that only I had come, which was inevitably disappointing. The waiter on the side quickly whispered to me: \"Where is Brother Li? Why did only you come?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Li told me to come!\" I originally wanted to say Brother Li wasn't coming, but after thinking about it, I didn't say it, because I always felt this matter wasn't simple and couldn't be played by common sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's the use of you coming? Hurry and find Brother Li!\" The waiter was clearly anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't say much about their distrust, and I didn't have any reaction in my heart. This was normal; my performance here was indeed not very good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tattooed man pointed at Su Xueyan on the ground and cursed: \"You stinking bitch, I'll give you three seconds to crawl to me obediently, otherwise don't blame me for dealing with your whole family. By then, it won't just be your own business!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xueyan's face was pale, tears were streaming down her pretty little face, her expression was fearful, and she was struggling painfully in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tattooed man's voice pressed heavily on Su Xueyan like a mountain. Su Xueyan was very helpless, her body slowly stood up, and her legs slowly bent. Looking at it, it was clear she was helplessly yielding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was about to kneel down, I walked over, held her, and said, \"Don't be afraid, I'm here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My sudden action gathered everyone's eyes on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the matter that was already almost in his hands had suddenly changed because of my appearance, the tattooed man was instantly furious and cursed: \"Are you looking for death? If you don't want to die, get lost!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, please be respectful!\" I gathered my courage to say this sentence. On the surface, I was calm, but inside I was terrified. After all, these people were all thugs in society, and they didn't know their own strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason I dared to say this was because of Sister Ling. It was clear that the new Sister Ling's backing was quite strong. In her shop, and looking after the place for her, I naturally wanted to act like a fox borrowing a tiger's might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, you've hit and cursed, I think your anger should be gone. This is a legitimate place, there really isn't the kind of selling you're talking about. If you want to find that kind of place, I think you've come to the wrong place!\" Seeing the other party's anger clearly rising, I subconsciously pulled Su Xueyan beside me gently behind me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xueyan hid behind me nervously, grabbing my collar with both hands, terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think I'm stupid? It's not that kind of place? Then what was I playing here before? Don't act high and mighty with me. Let me tell you, I'm running out of patience. If you don't let that woman come over today, I'll tear your shop down!\" The tattooed man didn't want to let Su Xueyan go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is Sister Ling's shop, and it's a place covered by Brother Tao. You'd better not go too far, otherwise, it won't look good for anyone!\" I forcibly calmed down and used Brother Tao and Sister Ling as shields.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Screw your mother!\" Hearing my words, the tattooed man punched me directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I clearly didn't expect the other party to move directly, subconsciously wanting to retreat, but suddenly remembered Su Xueyan was still behind me. The tattooed man's punch hit my face hard. The tattooed man's strength was great, almost knocking me over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I originally wanted to fight back, but I found three or four people on the other side staring like tigers, and their build was clearly not weaker than the tattooed man. If I really fought back, I might be beaten even worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I quietly looked at the tattooed man in front of me, didn't speak, and didn't intend to retreat: \"We're all men, there's no need to vent anger on a woman. Today's matter, I wonder how we can let it go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I said this, my momentum was clearly much weaker than before. There was no way, counting on Wang Li to save me was impossible, and the other party didn't care about Brother Tao and Sister Ling at all. This matter could only be settled by asking the other party how they wanted to play it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing my words, the tattooed man looked at me with disdain and said: \"What? Today's matter, you want to take it on alone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't speak, but my firm face already explained everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, you've got guts. This stinking bitch slapped me before. I don't ask for much, 5 minutes. As long as you can withstand the beating of these few people for 5 minutes, today's matter is settled!\" The tattooed man slowly sat on the sofa, looking like he was watching a good show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, they will beat you to death!\" Su Xueyan grabbed my hand and tried to stop me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn't speak, looking at the tattooed man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about it? Do you dare to take it?\" The tattooed man smiled and looked at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, this matter has nothing to do with him, I'll kneel, I'll kneel!\" Su Xueyan cried and knelt down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I pulled Su Xueyan up from the ground, threw her behind me, and said bluntly: \"Men are talking, women should butt out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although I was timid and afraid of trouble, I was a male chauvinist at heart. Letting a woman stand in front of me was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I gritted my teeth: \"Fine, I'll take it, I hope you keep your word!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, I hadn't been beaten less by Wang Li and the others. After being beaten for so many years, my body's endurance was still pretty good. Five minutes, I thought it should be fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, I, Huang Laohu, always keep my word!\" The tattooed man signaled the people beside him to move against me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing \"Huang Laohu,\" I realized that the tattooed man in front of me was actually Huang Laohu from the West Street. Our street was the South Street, and the South Street belonged to Brother Tao's territory, while Huang Laohu was the boss of the West Street. Actually, Brother Tao and Huang Laohu were both working for the same person, and as for the person above, because I was at the bottom, I didn't know very clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no!\" Su Xueyan crawled over and begged Huang Laohu crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up, don't beg him!\" This was the first time I had shouted at Su Xueyan, and Su Xueyan was quite scared by my shout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Laohu nodded, smiled, and looked at me, saying: \"Indeed, begging me is useless. This is a man's business, woman get out of the way. I find I'm becoming more and more interested in you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people around me beat me up, and no one in the KTV came up to help, especially after knowing the other party was Huang Laohu, they didn't dare to move even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yo, isn't this Brother Huang? What happened to make you so angry, moving your hands in my shop?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1263,"2026-06-11T15:09:04.179Z","2026-06-11T16:08:33.000Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","12713b06b8e17351432e65b15f8ccf1d3d07244828e0e3c1ea0dfaa3658605fb","rise-of-the-warlord-chapter-7","rise-of-the-warlord-chapter-5",227,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frise-of-the-warlord-cover.jpg"]
