Chapter 33: Do You Know You Were Wrong?

The bald man stared at Ning Ruoxue in anger: "I, Ma Wencai, have never suffered such hardship before."

"What do you want?" Ning Ruoxue stared at him.

"What do you think?" Ma Wencai waved his hand, and the thugs behind him immediately surrounded them; these people were all street hoodlums.

"Brother Ma, is this the woman you were talking about?"

"Heh, today we have to give her a taste of trouble."

These hoodlums all exposed the tattoos on their arms, each looking ill-intentioned.

"Threatening and intimidating a lawyer, do you want to guess how long you could be sentenced for?" Ning Ruoxue smiled slightly: "You were released from prison today; guess again, how long it would take for me to send you back in?"

"You..." The bald man shivered in fear; he had already experienced Ning Ruoxue's professional capabilities. Two years ago, when he injured someone, he originally could have avoided prison by pulling strings and paying some money, at most receiving fifteen days of detention.

But Ning Ruoxue insisted on making him pay double the money and got him locked up for two years.

"Boss, what are you afraid of? I don't believe a woman like her can turn the world upside down," one thug said angrily.

"Ning, you made me stay inside for two years. Today, I'll risk going back in for another two years just to teach you a lesson." Provoked by his subordinate, Ma Wencai was suddenly enraged: "Call more people over."

"Alright then, I'll play along with you." Ning Ruoxue picked up her phone, ready to make a call.

"No need for such trouble." Chen Yu smiled slightly and pressed down on Ning Ruoxue's phone: "Even if you send a person like this back in, he will still look for trouble with you after he gets out. To deal with someone like him, one should be simple and brutal."

"How should I deal with him?" Ning Ruoxue asked in surprise.

"Naturally, by fighting fire with fire and beating them into submission." Chen Yu grinned, suddenly grabbed the coffee that had just been served, and slammed it onto Ma Wencai's head.

Ah... although the coffee wasn't too hot, the broken glass made Ma Wencai's bald head bleed instantly.

Chen Yu kicked away one thug who was about to make a move, then with lightning speed, he floored the remaining few. Bang, bang, bang—accompanied by a burst of screams, these people fell to the ground cleanly and efficiently.

Ma Wencai turned to climb up, but Chen Yu kicked out. With a crash, the guy smashed through the glass on the side and flew out. Chen Yu grabbed a thug's jacket, twisted it into a bundle in his hand, and strode out.

"You damn thing, you dare to hit me? Don't you know who Brother Ma of Wenhua Street is?" The bald man climbed up, shouting while covered in blood.

Chen Yu sneered, picked up the clothes twisted into a rope in his hand, and whipped them down hard at the bald man.

Pfft! The bald man's body flew sideways, and half his teeth were whipped out. In Chen Yu's hands, this clothing twisted into a rope was no different from a wooden stick.

Chen Yu grabbed the weapon in his hand and whipped it at the bald man indiscriminately. Although this thing wouldn't cripple anyone, it was truly painful when it hit someone. The bald man screamed and dodged on the ground, but no matter how he dodged, the weapon in Chen Yu's hand could accurately strike his body.

"Stop hitting me, I won't dare to do it again, please stop hitting me."

Five minutes later, the bald man knelt on the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly. He was covered in blood and bruises, but he was just in pain; he hadn't suffered any serious injuries.

"This... isn't the beating a bit too heavy?" Ning Ruoxue felt a bit of pity. Although hoodlums like the bald man were detestable, this was too miserable.

"For this kind of person, if it's not heavy, he won't remember the lesson." Chen Yu smiled: "Did you see her clearly? From now on, call her 'Big Sister'. If she is harassed by anyone, I will break your legs."

"I saw her clearly, Big Sister, from now on you are my Big Sister." The bald man was beaten into submission; he nodded with a mournful face.

"You will pay for the coffee shop's losses, and by the way, pay our bill too." Chen Yu asked: "Can you do that?"

"Yes, yes, no problem, I'll pay the bill." The bald man nodded; he was now just hoping Chen Yu would leave quickly.

"Go." Chen Yu threw away the clothes in his hand.

Ning Ruoxue left with Chen Yu, and she suddenly burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Yu asked.

"Ma Wencai is a villain; I never knew he could be so cowardly, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy." The more Ning Ruoxue thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed.

"To deal with villains, one must have methods for dealing with villains." Chen Yu looked at Ning Ruoxue: "You look... really beautiful when you smile."

Ning Ruoxue was stunned. In the year since Chen Yu left, she seemed to have never smiled...

After sending Ning Ruoxue back, Chen Yu returned home.

He took out the Tao Cat, gently tapped it open with a hammer, and searched carefully through the pile of ceramic shards. Sure enough, several Spirit Stones the size of peanuts appeared among them.

Gathering these few Spirit Stones together, Chen Yu felt the vast Spiritual Power within them.

Chen Yu circulated his Primordial Qi, continuously absorbing the Spiritual Power within. He didn't know how much time had passed when suddenly he opened his eyes wide, and a sharp glint shot out from them.

The aura on his body had changed. The last time he saved Ye Xinyu, he awakened the power of a Martial Master and naturally filled his body with True Qi. Now, with the help of the Spirit Stones, his strength had reached the Martial True Realm.

Xuanwu True Realm, the second stage of a Martial Artist, allows for the external release of aura. In the future, using Qi for Acupuncture won't be so exhausting, though the light on the Spirit Stones had already dimmed slightly.

Although the Spirit Stones were only of low grade, they were already rare and hard to find in this world. With this thing, Chen Yu should be able to break through the first layer of the Sacred Pure Scripture very soon.

At this time, Ye Xinyu got off work, but she sat there blankly, with not a hint of a smile on her face.

"Wife, no good news to tell me today?" Chen Yu smiled.

"I got a promotion, husband." Ye Xinyu smiled reluctantly.

"A promotion is a good thing, why do you look unhappy?" Chen Yu was stunned; he saw that Ye Xinyu's expression was wrong.

Suddenly, he saw five faint finger marks on one side of Ye Xinyu's face.

"Who did this?" Chen Yu's voice changed abruptly.

Although he was reborn in a borrowed body, and although the owner of this body was not good to his wife, the bones of this body still cared deeply for Ye Xinyu.

"I'm fine, husband. I, I just feel like I've let you down." Ye Xinyu's tears finally couldn't help but fall: "My big brother owed others high-interest loans. He and my sister-in-law blocked me at the company to borrow money, asking for five hundred thousand."

"I only gave them three hundred thousand, and Zhou Lu scolded me for not caring about my big brother's life or death, and she slapped me."

"Scoundrels." Chen Yu was furious.

Ye Chenguang, that piece of trash, owed four hundred and fifty thousand in high-interest loans for buying antiques. He must have been eyeing the one million I earned last time, right? Borrow? Heh, this bastard would never pay the money back.

"Husband, don't be angry. I will find a way to get the money back from him." Ye Xinyu wiped away a tear.

"The money doesn't matter. Even if you gave it all to them, I wouldn't say anything, but they dared to hit you—that is not allowed." Chen Yu sneered: "Wife, you rest first, I'm going out for a bit."

"Chen Yu, what are you doing? Don't go looking for my big brother; they will hit you." Ye Xinyu hurriedly pulled him back.

"It's not that. That group of high-interest loan sharks will pick on you even if you pay them back. I know some people; I'll go solve the matter for your big brother." Chen Yu said.

"Really? Then take care of yourself." Ye Xinyu finally felt relieved. Although she had broken ties with her maiden family, they were still relatives after all; it was impossible for her not to worry.

"It's fine, I'll handle it well." Chen Yu smiled and turned to walk out.

After going out, Chen Yu's expression changed, and he took out his phone to call Zou Dalong.

"Mr. Chen, do you have any instructions?" Zou Dalong received Chen Yu's call, feeling both pleasantly surprised and somewhat apprehensive.

"There's a loan shark, he has a scar on his face, is bald, and is in a group with someone called Rat. Do you know him?" Chen Yu said.

"I know him, his name is Zhang Erdao, he and his gang collude to sell fake antiques. Did that brat offend Mr. Chen? I'll find some men to go chop him up," Zou Dalong shouted.

"No need, just get me a few local thugs, I have business with him," Chen Yu said.
