Chapter 250: Start Over Again
"I have crippled two meridians in your arms today; in three days, your hands will return to normal, but if you ever act fiercely and combative again, your arms will suffer excruciating pain. I am doing this to prevent you from bullying others by relying on the strength you learned in the military."
"Chen Yu, you bastard, I'm not finished with you," Zhou Qi screamed.
Chen Yu kicked him flying, and Zhou Qi lay on the ground for a long time without recovering his senses.
Zhou Qi had indeed wanted to rely on his own strength to carve out a piece of territory in Fengling; after all, Du Feng was gone, and He Wei was gone, and many people were eyeing large areas of Fengling covetously.
He was confident that with his strength, he could surely forge a career, but he never expected that before his mission could even begin, he would run straight into Chen Yu.
"Is this your backing?" Chen Yu finished dealing with this guy and turned back to stare at the couple.
The man had long been scared stiff; Zhou Qi was a special forces soldier and very fierce, and he had seen with his own eyes this guy take down five or six big men by himself.
Yet such a formidable person had been beaten by Chen Yu until he had no power to fight back; just how fierce was this guy?
"Brother, let's talk this over. I was wrong, I apologize to you," the man immediately turned cowardly.
Slap... Chen Yu landed a slap, and half of the man's face immediately swelled up: "Both of you, kneel and apologize."
"Kneel, kneel?" The man was dumbfounded. This was an amusement park, and if he knelt to apologize in full view of everyone, how could he show his face in the future?
Slap... "Are you kneeling or not?" The next slap, Chen Yu swung onto his wife.
The woman let out a shriek and burst into tears: "Honey, what do we do?"
This wicked woman had been quite arrogant before, but now she was also cowardly to the extreme, a typical bully who fears the strong and picks on the weak.
"I said, if you had apologized, this matter would have been over, but the nature of things changed when you called for backup," Chen Yu barked: "I'll give you one more minute, kneel."
The man's expression shifted, and after thinking it over, he knelt down: "I, I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, we shouldn't have bullied your daughter," the woman also cried out as she knelt to apologize.
The people watching the spectacle began pointing and whispering toward this side.
"Isn't that the couple who weren't leashing their dog earlier?"
"That's them. They didn't leash such a big dog, and it even scared my son into crying."
"They were quite arrogant when people talked to them, and their son even wanted to set the dog on people."
"They ran into a tough guy, didn't they? The dog was beaten to death, and the people were beaten up too."
"Serves them right."
"Little fatty, you're not convinced, are you?" Chen Yu glanced at the little fatty.
"My dad will kill you." The little fatty was a spoiled brat who had never experienced the harsh lessons of society; he didn't care at all that his own father was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.
"Kill me? Kid, you're still young and haven't experienced the harsh lessons of society. Remember this for the future, otherwise, you'll be the one to suffer when you grow up," Chen Yu glared back with a single look.
Chen Yu's gaze carried a hint of killing intent; the little fatty shivered and then burst into tears.
This one look from Chen Yu was enough to give him nightmares for half a month.
"Yinyin, be good. Let's go. Remember from now on, if anyone dares to bully you, slap them back. If anything happens, your godfather will cover for you," Chen Yu said as he picked up Yinyin.
Yinyin still had tears hanging on her eyes, but she was already giggling. She nodded heavily and said, "Thank you, Daddy Chen Yu, I know."
The two were just about to leave the amusement park when suddenly, Ye Xinyu appeared before them.
"Xinyu?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.
"Daddy, who is this?" Yinyin blinked her eyes as she looked at Ye Xinyu. Her calling him 'Daddy' made Ye Xinyu's heart sink to the bottom in an instant.
"Xinyu, I..." Chen Yu was in the middle of explaining when Zhao Anran, who was to the side, said: "Let me explain. Sister-in-law, can we talk?"
"What is there to talk about? Chen Yu, is this your... daughter?" Ye Xinyu's mind was somewhat dazed.
She didn't know that Chen Yu's daughter was already this old, and that she was with Zhao Anran?
"Sister-in-law, don't misunderstand. This is Chen Yu's goddaughter," Zhao Anran said hurriedly: "She has no parents and lived with her older sister. In order to scrape together her medical expenses, her sister passed away too."
"So I adopted her, and Chen Yu saw how pitiful she was, so he took her as his goddaughter."
"Is what you're saying true?" Ye Xinyu stared coldly at Zhao Anran: "Do you dare to swear that you have no designs on Chen Yu at all?"
"I do, I have designs on him, but because I know we cannot be together, I treat Yinyin as the daughter I have with him," Zhao Anran said sincerely: "This is my only bit of hope."
"And sister-in-law, Chen Yu is a good man. At Xinglinju, everyone he cures is grateful to him. He is very outstanding, and you come from a scholarly family. In my view, only a gentle and modest woman like you is worthy of him."
"So I hope you treat him well and don't let people feel that you are unworthy of your position."
"Unworthy of my position? What did you say?" Ye Xinyu was furious.
"I am only saying what I want to say. If I have offended you, then I can only say I'm sorry," Zhao Anran took Yinyin and said: "Yinyin, let's go."
"Goodbye, Daddy Chen Yu." Yinyin waved at Chen Yu and left with Zhao Anran.
"Do you have nothing to explain to me?" Ye Xinyu raised her head, her eyes burning with anger.
"There's no need," Chen Yu shook his head and said: "The old me was not good to you, and the current me wants to try my best to make up for the mistakes of the past."
"But I feel tired. Every explanation is futile; since that's the case, what is there to explain?" Chen Yu said.
"The matter with Ning Ruoxue was my fault, I apologize," Ye Xinyu's voice was somewhat cold: "But..."
"But what?" Chen Yu smiled: "Is that how you apologize? Even when apologizing, you don't lower your noble head. You weren't like this before, Xinyu. Why do you make me feel like we are becoming more and more like strangers?"
"Your father has come to Fengling. Why didn't you let him stay at home?" Ye Xinyu tried hard to calm herself down and changed the subject.
"You knew?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.
"Yes, I happened to run into him today. He invited my parents to eat together. Chen Yu, what is the meaning of this? They came, and you let them stay outside? You want me, as a daughter-in-law, to not let them enter the house?" Ye Xinyu raised her head.
"Do you think our current state is suitable for them to come and stay? My father is a farmer; he has almost never left Yaoshan District, and this is his first time in Fengling. Do you really think that living under the same roof as your parents wouldn't cause any issues?"
"Yes, he is not my biological father, but he raised me with his own hands. You are afraid that your parents will be wronged, but do you think I am not afraid?" Chen Yu retorted.
"I'm sorry..." Ye Xinyu lowered her head silently: "Chen Yu, let's both be calm... okay?"
