Chapter 88: We've been tricked!

Chen Xiaoxiao had also seen Liu Cheng and Wang XinHai.

She knew that these two young masters, once they started fighting, had no sense of restraint.

Even if they really beat someone to death, they could settle it using their family's connections.

She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and stepped forward.

"Liu Shao, Wang Shao, this matter was caused by my friend; I hope you two will consider it for my father's sake..."

Wang XinHai let out a cold laugh and said, "If your father were standing before me, I'd consider whether to give him face."

Saying that, he shouted at Lin Yang.

"I told you to turn around—what are you just standing there for?!"

"You believe it or not, I'll go over right now and break your hand!"

Seeing that Lin Yang didn't turn his head, everyone thought he was scared.

Just as everyone was mocking Lin Yang in their hearts, Lin Yang let out a light laugh.

"You two young masters are really imposing."

Hearing that familiar voice, Liu Cheng and Wang XinHai's hearts pounded wildly.

When Lin Yang turned around, he looked at them with a half-smile.

"Wang Shao, was it you who just said you'd break my hand?"

The moment they saw Lin Yang's face, Liu Cheng and the other went blank in their heads.

They only felt their scalps go numb; they wanted to speak but couldn't utter a word.

At that moment, Xu Zhijie pointed at Lin Yang and shouted.

"What are you pulling? Do you know what status these two have?"

"I'm telling you, if you don't give these two young masters and me a satisfactory explanation today, I'll kill your whole family!"

Lin Yang looked at Liu Cheng and the other with a half-smile.

"So, you guys are really that powerful."

Liu Cheng and the other kept sweating nonstop from their foreheads, even their backs were drenched.

Without waiting for them to speak, Xu Zhijie said with a smug face.

"Of course; even someone as formidable as Han Yunhu ends up defeated by these two young masters."

Then he scolded Lin Yang.

"Get down on your knees for me!"

"Thud."

Liu Cheng and the other's legs went weak, and they fell to their knees in fright.

Seeing this, Xu Zhijie hurriedly helped them up.

"Gentlemen, I wasn't talking about you—why did you kneel?"

The two, having been helped up, regained some of their strength.

Liu Cheng suddenly kicked Xu Zhijie, knocking him to the ground.

At that moment, Wang XinHai casually grabbed a stool and hurled it at Xu Zhijie.

"I kneel, your mother!"

"You damn fool, you're looking for death and dragging us along!"

"I usually treat you well, yet you're messing with me like this!"

The two put all their strength into it and gave Xu Zhijie a thorough beating.

Everyone seeing this was also dumbfounded.

However, an even more shocking scene was yet to come.

All that was seen was the two putting down the stools, walking up to Lin Yang, and kneeling directly on the ground.

The two, with snot and tears, explained.

"Mr. Lin, we've been deceived by this bastard!"

"We didn't know you were here; otherwise, even if we borrowed ten courages, we wouldn't dare come!"

Everyone looked at this scene, dumbfounded.

If it weren't for Xu Zhijie's attitude toward them just now, everyone would still have thought these were actors hired by Lin Yang!

Chen Xiaoxiao saw this scene and also found it utterly unbelievable.

She blinked her eyes, completely bewildered.

What on earth is going on?!

Lin Yang looked at the two kneeling on the ground and said coldly.

"You two are young masters who can cover the sky with one hand; I'm just an ordinary person—how could I possibly provoke you?"

Hearing that, they almost burst into tears.

"Mr. Lin, we were wrong; please forgive us!"

Saying that, they also tearfully appealed to Chen Xiaoxiao.

"Miss Chen, we too were tricked by that scoundrel; otherwise, why would we come to disturb your birthday banquet?"

Wang XinHai even slapped himself while speaking to Chen Xiaoxiao.

"Just now I was drunk and spouting nonsense; please don't take it to heart."

Chen Xiaoxiao was startled—these two, notorious troublemakers in the past, were now kneeling on the ground begging her!

Chen Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, then said to Lin Yang.

"Lin Yang, they haven't really done anything bad—let's just let it go."

Lin Yang, hearing this, said to the two of them.

Since the birthday elder pleaded for you, let today's matter slide.

If there's a next time, don't blame me for forgetting old ties—get up.

The two, hearing this, hurriedly nodded and said, "There won't be a next time, you can rest assured."

After they got up, looking at the knocked-out Xu Zhijie, they felt resentful again and rushed forward to kick him.

After kicking, they didn't forget to spit.

You bastard, you almost got me killed!

Lin Yang glanced at the two and also found it amusing.

Chen Xiaoxiao said to the two, "If you don't mind, please sit down and have something to eat together."

Then I'll obey rather than be merely respectful—thank you, birthday elder.

After the two sat down, they kept pouring wine for Lin Yang, offering toasts.

Those who previously looked down on the Lin Yang siblings now felt their faces burning with pain.

But there were still some who were unconvinced, speaking in a sarcastic tone.

Mr. Lin, since you're so capable, I wonder what birthday gift you've prepared for Xiaoxiao.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoxiao glanced at Lin Yang.

Seeing Lin Yang stunned, she smiled and said.

Ying'er and Lin Yang arriving is the best gift for me.

Lin Yang felt inwardly, Chen Xiaoxiao really knows how to conduct herself.

He smiled and took out a Peace Talisman.

Xiaoxiao, this is a Peace Talisman I personally drew.

Everyone looked at the Protective Talisman Lin Yang produced and felt disappointed.

Tch, I personally drew it—are you even qualified to draw talismans?

While everyone looked down on Lin Yang, Liu Cheng and the other gazed at the Protective Talisman with envy.

That night, seeing Lin Yang summon lightning out of thin air, they concluded he was no ordinary mortal.

Since this Protective Talisman was personally drawn by him, it must be remarkably effective.

Liu Cheng shifted his gaze and said to Chen Xiaoxiao.

Miss Chen, I see you don't seem too fond of this Protective Talisman—how about I buy it for one million?

Wang XinHai, hearing this, immediately shouted, "I'll offer one million five hundred thousand!"

Liu Cheng, hearing this, immediately burst out cursing.

Fatty Wang, you said you don't believe in ghosts and gods—what are you doing with this?

Wang XinHai, hearing this, also refused to back down.

What's wrong with me liking it? It's none of your business!

Miss Chen, sell it to me!

Everyone watching the two argue was utterly bewildered.

Even if it's to flatter Lin Yang, there's no need to act this convincingly."

Chen Xiaoxiao picked up the Protective Talisman, looked at it for a while, then turned her gaze to Lin Yang.

Lin Yang, do you think I should sell it?

Up to you, but if you sell it, it can't be less than two million.

Liu Cheng, hearing this, immediately said, "I'll offer two million five hundred thousand, Miss Chen—please part with it!"

Chen Xiaoxiao smiled and hung the Protective Talisman around her neck.

I'm not selling it.

Seeing Chen Xiaoxiao not sell, Liu Cheng and the other also sighed.

Wang XinHai looked at Liu Cheng and laughed while scolding.

I think you've become a two-fifty.

While the two were arguing, Chen Xiaoxiao walked up to Lin Yang.

Lin Yang, I can't tie the Protective Talisman well—can you help me tie it?

Now, everyone's gazes toward Chen Xiaoxiao and Lin Yang were different.
