Chapter 40: The Strange Feeling of the Beautiful Assistant

Li Mengxue and her beautiful assistant, Cao Yanzhi, had of course known about the major incident at The Bar for a long time. However, they hadn't dared to come out because of the situation. Li Mengxue had been harassed by Li Qi for so many years and had suffered quite a bit, so she was truly afraid of him. This time, Li Qi had arrived with such fanfare, which made her even more terrified.

Now that the situation had turned around and the two scoundrels, Li Qi and Zhang Dan, were kowtowing to Zhou Lang and begging for mercy, they walked out together. They knew that with Zhou Lang there, they were in no danger.

Cao Yanzhi had previously been curious about how Zhou Lang had transformed from a part-time waiter into Boss Li's personal bodyguard. In fact, like other employees at The Bar, she had assumed that Zhou Lang had become a gigolo to win Boss Li's favor.

Earlier, Li Mengxue and Cao Yanzhi had been in the monitoring room of The Bar, so they had seen everything that happened in the main hall clearly. Therefore, Cao Yanzhi knew she had misjudged Zhou Lang. However, she was very curious: with martial arts as high as his, even a boss of the underworld like Duan Wei was trembling in his presence. If Zhou Lang wanted to make money, it would be extremely easy, so why did he still choose to be a bodyguard?

In her eyes, Zhou Lang was now shrouded in a layer of mystery, and for the first time, she began to pay attention to him.

"I thought he was a gigolo. It turns out he is so low-key yet so cool. How wonderful it would be to have a boyfriend like him." Cao Yanzhi, who had never been interested in men, felt ripples in her heart without realizing it.

The reason she wasn't interested in men wasn't because there was something wrong with her, but because she felt that modern men were too effeminate and lacked masculinity. However, Zhou Lang's performance today had completely changed her perspective. She felt that Zhou Lang was a typical masculine Prince Charming. She even developed a strong thought: when looking for a man in the future, she must find someone like Zhou Lang.

In fact, not only was Cao Yanzhi puzzled, but even Li Mengxue didn't know that Zhou Lang possessed such means to make Duan Wei so afraid. Previously, she hadn't fully believed Zhou Lang when he said he would help her completely settle the matter with Li Qi. Now, she had no doubt that Zhou Lang possessed such ability, because she knew that in the underground world of Feiyun City, Duan Wei was a godfather-like figure. With Duan Wei having spoken, Li Qi would definitely not dare to harass her again.

Li Mengxue was mature and charming, while Cao Yanzhi was cold and glamorous; both were true beauties.

Seeing these two great beauties appear at the same time, Duan Wei and "Scarface" and the others all felt their eyes light up.

"Mr. Zhou, who are these two Young Misses?" Duan Wei, a man of experience, immediately asked Zhou Lang.

"This is Boss Li of The Bar and her assistant, Cao Yanzhi." Zhou Lang briefly introduced Li Mengxue and Cao Yanzhi to Duan Wei.

"Boss Li, I feel very ashamed that scum like Li Qi and Zhang Dan have emerged from among my subordinates. Today, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Duan Wei said quickly. He was an old hand in the Jianghu and vaguely felt that the relationship between Zhou Lang and Li Mengxue probably wasn't simple. Therefore, he didn't dare to be the slightest bit negligent in front of Li Mengxue, because offending Li Mengxue meant offending Zhou Lang.

"Then thank you, Brother Wei."

Li Mengxue understood that to suppress Li Qi, she still had to rely on Duan Wei. Therefore, she did not put on airs but instead gave Duan Wei plenty of Face.

"You two scoundrels, why aren't you thanking Boss Li?" Duan Wei breathed a sigh of relief inwardly and said to Li Qi and Zhang Dan, who were kneeling in front of Zhou Lang.

"Boss Li, I was blind and didn't recognize a superior person before. Please, for the sake of us being fellow townsmen, let me go this time."

Li Qi was a guy who knew how to see which way the wind was blowing. He understood that he had to bow his head today, so he crawled on his knees to in front of Li Mengxue.

Before, he thought Li Mengxue was easy to bully, but now he realized that with Zhou Lang around, he could no longer afford to provoke her.

Zhang Dan didn't speak, but he also crawled to in front of Li Mengxue.

Watching Li Qi kneeling in front of her, a feeling of relief surged in Li Mengxue's heart. This man had threatened her for many years and was practically her nightmare; she used to be terrified whenever she saw him. But now, she felt how insignificant Li Qi was.

However, regarding how to deal with Li Qi, Li Mengxue had no idea. She couldn't help but cast her gaze toward Zhou Lang. Unknowingly, Zhou Lang had already become her backbone.

"If you knew it would come to this, why did you act that way in the beginning? Li Qi, I gave you chances before, but you didn't cherish them. There is no regret medicine in this world. You must pay the price for your actions."

Zhou Lang said calmly.

"Scarface, this time they have offended Mr. Zhou. Chop off one hand from each of them as a lesson."

Upon hearing Zhou Lang's tone, Duan Wei steeled his heart and gave the order. He now had only one thought, and that was to calm Zhou Lang's anger. If Zhou Lang thought he was incompetent in managing his subordinates, he would also be implicated.

"Brother Wei… we were wrong… please don't chop off our hands."

"Mr. Zhou, I will immediately… immediately get out of Feiyun City. I only ask that you let me go this time."

Li Qi and Zhang Dan were so scared that their courage shattered, and they began to speak incoherently.

Zhou Lang didn't speak, he just snorted coldly.

"Do it." Seeing this, Duan Wei knew that Zhou Lang was unwilling to let Li Qi and Zhang Dan off so easily, so he immediately urged "Scarface" to take action.

"Stretch out your hands!"

"Scarface" pulled a gleaming dagger from his waist and said sharply to Li Qi and Zhang Dan.

He had witnessed Zhou Lang's prowess, so he understood that to settle today's matter, the only way was to severely punish Li Qi and Zhang Dan and satisfy Zhou Lang, so that Duan Wei would not be implicated because of this incident.

Seeing the gleaming dagger, Li Mengxue, Cao Yanzhi, Ivanova, and all the employees in The Bar showed a look of fear.

Many of the more timid ones even turned away, afraid of seeing the bloody scene that was about to happen.

Seeing that Duan Wei and "Scarface" were serious, Li Qi and Zhang Dan were terrified. Zhang Dan was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, while Li Qi was so scared that he peed himself, and his crotch was wet and dripping.

However, these two guys refused to stretch out their hands no matter what; if their hands were chopped off, their lives would be ruined.

"Since you are unwilling to cooperate, then I will have to use force."

Seeing this scene, "Scarface" shouted to the few underlings who had come with them: "You guys come over here and hold their hands down."

Four tall and sturdy underlings immediately stepped out, two of them pinning down Li Qi and the other two pinning down Zhang Dan. Li Qi and Zhang Dan struggled continuously, but it was useless; their left hands were firmly stepped on the ground.

"Scarface" took the sharp dagger and squatted in front of Li Qi.

"Don't… don't chop off my hand…"

Li Qi felt the chill from the dagger in "Scarface's" hand and was so scared that his Face turned pale. He only knew how to beg for mercy. Now he truly regretted it; if he had left Feiyun City after being warned by Zhou Lang, today's events would not have happened.

The Bar became incredibly quiet, so quiet that one could hear people's heartbeats. Li Mengxue was also stunned, forgetting to stop the bloody scene from happening.
