"You dare touch my woman?"
Lu Yang's eyes turned cold as he looked at Huang Gui and spoke sternly.
Huang Gui hadn't expected this useless son-in-law of the Tang family to dare lay a hand on him, and instantly, his anger flared.
"You damn trash, daring to fight me? Get him, kill this idiot!"
With Huang Gui's command, the two burly men who had been standing by immediately lunged at Lu Yang.
These two men were tall and strong, their powerful physiques intimidating enough to make ordinary people shy away. But in Lu Yang's eyes, they were merely two sandbags. With two punches, both men immediately clutched their stomachs and collapsed onto the ground, groaning in pain.
"Kid, do you know who I am? Dare to touch me, and I'll make sure you have no place to be buried!"
Seeing this, Huang Gui immediately threatened Lu Yang.
Lu Yang stepped forward and grabbed Huang Gui by the collar.
"Slap!" He slapped Huang Gui across the face.
"You want to sleep with my woman?"
"Slap!"
Lu Yang slapped him again.
"Still dare to threaten me?"
"Slap!"
Another slap.
"Want me to have no place to be buried?"
"Slap..."
Lu Yang didn't say a word for each slap, striking Huang Gui. In less than a minute, Huang Gui's face had been slapped more than ten times, both sides swollen like a pig's.
"You... you're dead! Do you know I'm a subordinate of Mr. Liu Hui from the Hongmen Jiangbei branch? Hitting my face is like hitting the entire Jiangbei branch! Not only are you dead, but your whole family will die too!"
"I want you to kneel before me for three days and three nights to repent!"
Huang Gui's face was so swollen that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him. His entire face ached with every word, but he still roared at Lu Yang hysterically.
He couldn't fathom being beaten into such a state by a widely acknowledged useless son-in-law. For Huang Gui, this was an utterly humiliating disgrace.
He had always been the one bullying others, yet today he was beaten by someone considered a nobody.
"Kneel before me for three days and three nights?"
"Heh, even if Liu Hui himself stood before me, he wouldn't dare speak to me like that. Who gave you the audacity?"
Lu Yang sneered and said directly to Huang Gui. Then, he stomped on Huang Gui's arm. With a "crack," Huang Gui's arm was instantly broken by Lu Yang's foot.
"Ah..."
A heart-wrenching pain surged through Huang Gui's body, followed by a bloodcurdling scream.
Just as Lu Yang was about to break Huang Gui's other arm, Huang Gui completely panicked and immediately knelt before Lu Yang.
"Sir, I was wrong! Please, don't hit me anymore. I'll never dare again!"
Huang Gui, terrified by Lu Yang's methods, immediately begged for mercy.
"The IOU, hand it over!"
Lu Yang glanced at Huang Gui and said directly.
"Yes, yes!"
Huang Gui quickly handed over the IOU with his one good hand. With a heartbroken gaze, he watched as Lu Yang tore the IOU into shreds.
"Kid, you just wait for me. When I gather my men, I'll break all your limbs, and then I'll torture you to death in agony. Your family will suffer with you. Your woman, I'll find a dozen people to have her, and then sell her to Africa to be a prostitute!"
Huang Gui thought these things constantly in his mind, but dared not utter a single word aloud.
After finishing these matters, Lu Yang picked up Tang Shimin and walked out.
"I told you not to drink, but you insisted on not listening. If I hadn't been here today, the consequences would have been unthinkable!"
Lu Yang sighed, put Tang Shimin back into the car, and drove directly back to the Tang family.
As Lu Yang carried Tang Shimin to the entrance of the Tang family's house, Wang Yonglei also arrived. He snatched Tang Shimin from Lu Yang's arms.
"I'm warning you, stay away from Shimin!"
Wang Yonglei shouted at Lu Yang.
Lu Yang's eyes turned cold, and he was about to make a move, but Li Xiumei opened the door.
"Yonglei, what's going on? What happened to Shimin?"
Li Xiumei, seeing Tang Shimin lying in Wang Yonglei's arms, unconscious, immediately asked with concern.
"Shimin was being forced to drink. Fortunately, I arrived in time and saved her!"
Wang Yonglei naturally smelled the alcohol on Tang Shimin, so he guessed that Tang Shimin was drunk. As for what happened after she got drunk, Wang Yonglei didn't care; he only cared about the Tang family's money.
"You're spouting nonsense! Shimin was clearly saved by me!"
Lu Yang looked at Wang Yonglei and said coldly.
"Alright, if you say you saved her, then you saved her. It doesn't matter, as long as Shimin is safe!"
Wang Yonglei sneered and retreated to advance.
As expected, when Li Xiumei heard Wang Yonglei and Lu Yang, she immediately started shouting at Lu Yang: "You damn trash! Yonglei brought Shimin back, and you claim you saved her? You're even stealing credit like this? Are you even human? You're an animal!"
"Auntie, don't scold Lu Yang. He's actually concerned about Shimin, that's why he came,"
Wang Yonglei said to Li Xiumei.
"Young Master Wang, not only are you wealthy, but you're also so kind-hearted. However, some people are simply not worth forgiving, like this useless one. Even if you forgive him a hundred times, he won't appreciate it!"
"Young Master Wang, please come in quickly!"
Li Xiumei said, ushering Wang Yonglei inside. As for Lu Yang, she didn't let him take even half a step inside.
Lu Yang shrugged indifferently and left the Tang family.
...
After Wang Yonglei took Tang Shimin home, he was warmly welcomed by Li Xiumei and Tang Mingde. An hour later, Tang Shimin also woke up. She had no idea what had happened after she fainted, but upon hearing from Li Xiumei that Wang Yonglei had saved her, she immediately felt immense gratitude towards him.
"Yonglei, thank you. If it weren't for you, I might have been..."
Tang Shimin thought about Huang Gui trying to drug her and almost assaulting her, and a wave of regret washed over her. Fortunately, Wang Yonglei had arrived in time and saved her.
As for Lu Yang, her disappointment grew. Although Lu Yang had advised her not to drink that wine earlier, after the incident, Lu Yang could do nothing. Only someone with Wang Yonglei's status could save her.
"Shimin, why are you being so polite with me?"
"I'm willing to do anything for you!"
"Oh, right, about the Tang family's purchase of six hundred mu of land, I've spoken to my father. After my repeated pleas, my father agreed to sell it to the Tang family, but at a slightly higher price of ten million more, making it a total of one hundred and ten million!"
"Shimin, you know, this one hundred and ten million is already the lowest price. If it were any lower, I wouldn't be able to ask my father."
Wang Yonglei put on an act of having done his utmost.
