Tang Rou's face was grim. Feng Xiuliang was much more reliable than that Zhao Ping. After all, the Feng family's fists were quite formidable, and their status and position in the capital far surpassed Zhao Ping's.
"Miss Tang, rest assured, the Feng Family Martial Arts Hall people will be here soon. Once they tear down this clinic, what can he do to me?" Feng Xiuliang said with a cold snort, his words carrying a hint of seeking merit.
Tang Rou nodded. "As long as you can do it, I'll join you for dinner tonight!"
A simple dinner was no different from rewarding a sycophant in Tang Rou's eyes.
"Miss Tang is quite promiscuous. Is she a social butterfly? She wanted to have dinner with Zhao Ping yesterday, and today she's changed to someone else?" Li Se couldn't help but taunt.
Tang Rou angrily retorted, "You'd better worry about yourself. Once the Feng family's fists come out, your clinic will be torn down!"
"The Feng family's fists? Heh, not necessarily," Li Se replied with a dismissive smile.
"Are you looking down on my Feng family?" Feng Xiuliang was getting annoyed. The Feng family's fists were quite famous in the capital. This brat, relying on his minor skills, dared to look down on the Feng family. This was utter arrogance.
Many people heard this and gathered to watch.
"What? This kid is looking down on the Feng family's fists?"
"He's just a small doctor, and he dares to look down on the Feng family. That's a bit too arrogant."
"Once the Feng family arrives, this clinic will likely be torn down, and he'll be powerless. That's the consequence of offending the Feng family."
"Begging for mercy will be useless then. He can only mouth off now."
"..."
To dare to look down on the Feng family in the capital was an act of great defiance. Even these passersby knew about the Feng family's fists, so why didn't Li Se?
Tang An knew Li Se was very capable; he could even defeat Ye Bowen with ease. However, the Feng family's fists were not to be trifled with. Moreover, the Feng Family Martial Arts Hall would send many people, and with formidable fists and numerical superiority, victory was impossible!
The Feng family members arrived quickly. They were all wearing the same uniform, with their fists wrapped in bandages, exuding an air of swagger.
"Second Young Master!"
"Second Young Master, who dares to oppose our Feng Family Martial Arts Hall?"
"Is it this kid?"
"Opening a dilapidated clinic, and he's already so arrogant?"
"Tear it down, tear it down..."
These people started shouting.
Feng Xiuliang waved his hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down. Then, he looked smugly at Li Se and said with a smile, "Do you still dare to say what you just said? Looking down on my Feng family's fists? I want to know if you have the ability to look down on them. Tear down this clinic for me!"
The Feng family disciples' faces hardened, and they all swung their fists, rushing into the clinic.
Bang bang...
However, after taking just two steps, a figure blocked their path. With two casual kicks, the first two were sent flying. This figure was none other than Xu Qiang. He stood at the entrance, projecting an aura of "one man guarding the pass, ten thousand men unable to get through." He snorted, "If you want to tear down the clinic, you'll have to get past me first!"
"Charge!" Feng Xiuliang roared.
The Feng family disciples merely paused for a moment before swinging their fists at Xu Qiang. They were all Feng family disciples, trained in Baji Quan. Xu Qiang, on the other hand, had no fancy moves; his were purely killing techniques. Whatever could defeat an enemy quickly and send them to their death, that's what he practiced.
Attacks to the chest, throat grabs, groin kicks... and so on were unleashed. Almost every strike could incapacitate a Feng family disciple. Yet, he was just one person, and the numerous Feng family disciples were inexplicably unable to deal with him. In fact, all of them combined were no match for Xu Qiang alone!
"Second Young Master, we are no match for him!" a Feng family disciple said dejectedly.
Feng Xiuliang's face turned ugly. He hadn't expected so many of his Feng family disciples to be taken down by one person. If this got out, where would the Feng family's reputation go?
"Is that all?" Li Se's mocking voice rang out.
This time, the onlookers no longer mocked. It seemed the Feng family's fists weren't really that impressive.
"Don't be too arrogant!" Feng Xiuliang roared.
"Indeed, it's not much!" Tang An nodded.
Tang Rou felt utterly humiliated. She looked coldly at Feng Xiuliang and sneered, "A second-rate family is still a second-rate family. They can't even find a decent expert!"
"Miss Tang, don't worry, I'm going to get serious now!" Feng Xiuliang continued to make calls. He couldn't lose face in front of his goddess.
This time, he called his elder brother. Upon hearing that his men had been beaten, his brother immediately brought people over. However, after learning the address, he felt a sense of foreboding.
"You wait, my elder brother will be here soon, and he's bringing our Feng family's experts!" Feng Xiuliang said fiercely.
Li Se remained indifferent, as if he hadn't heard a word.
This feeling of being underestimated was very unpleasant. Feng Xiuliang's expression darkened, especially with so many people watching and his goddess present. He had to regain his honor.
"Brother-in-law, be careful. This Feng family does have an expert, and Baji Quan is no joke," Tang An reminded him.
"Who's your brother-in-law?" Huang Shanshan asked with a cold face.
Tang An scoffed and whistled, "This one, of course, is my brother-in-law!"
"Tang An, why aren't you going back?" Tang Rou yelled angrily. This was her younger brother, and he was siding with someone else.
"Sister, I called him brother-in-law, not because he's your husband, but Tang Xi's husband, and it has nothing to do with you," Tang An explained.
Tang Rou's face darkened. "Of course, I know. Do you think I, Tang Rou, would be interested in a mere doctor?"
Tang An was a bit helpless. After thinking for a moment, he quietly said to Li Se, "Brother-in-law, go easy on them. My sister has some psychological issues, and she's a bit of a pervert..."
Li Se raised an eyebrow. He had felt something was off about Tang Rou earlier. Although he couldn't pinpoint it, she seemed to be particularly targeting Huang Shanshan. It was unusual for them to meet for the first time, and he shouldn't be bothered. Moreover, Ye Bowen had arranged for him to go to the Nine-Five Supreme. How could Ye Bowen be sure that Tang Rou would cause trouble for him? It was highly likely that this woman, Tang Rou, truly had some psychological distortions.
Just then, a black car drove over. An old man and a young man got out of the car. It was naturally Feng Xiuming and Old Feng. However, both of their expressions were rather grim. As they approached, they had felt something was amiss, and indeed, it was as they suspected.
"Big Brother, you're finally here. Hurry up and deal with this kid. He dared to look down on our Feng family's fists!" Seeing his elder brother arrive, Feng Xiuliang felt as if he had found his anchor. His confidence surged, and he didn't forget to shout at Li Se.
"You have the guts to keep showing off in front of my big brother? I'm telling you, I'll cripple you today!"
