Zhang Aimin felt a stir in her heart, touched by Li Se’s declaration that she was his woman.
“Your woman?” Duan Kun roared. “You think you’re a hero saving the damsel? Do you know who I am? How dare you claim she’s yours right here? Let go and get lost!”
As Duan Kun’s voice fell, several underlings took a step forward, their faces contorted with ferocity.
“She is my woman, and I’m taking her,” Li Se stated.
“Kid, it seems you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. So what if she’s your woman?” Duan Kun’s face contorted into a cruel smile. “Grab this brat! I’ll play with his woman right in front of him!”
“Yes!” The underlings answered and lunged at Li Se.
*Bang, bang…*
“Ah!”
But before these underlings could even touch Li Se, they were already lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
“So, you’ve got some skills. No wonder you’re so arrogant!” Duan Kun’s expression darkened, but he wasn’t panicked. “Kid, this woman is just a prostitute. Why would you bother for a prostitute…”
*Slap!*
Before he could finish, Li Se had already slapped him across the face and said coldly, “Apologize!”
“You dare hit me?” Duan Kun was furious. He had initially hoped to resolve this peacefully seeing Li Se’s skills, but the latter had dared to hit him.
*Slap, slap, slap…*
Li Se delivered several more slaps, “Apologize!”
“Do you know who I am?” Duan Kun shouted. “Someone, get me some people! Kill this kid!”
The commotion in the private room was significant, attracting many people. Over a dozen rushed into the room; they were all Duan Kun’s men.
“Brother Kun!”
These dozen or so people greeted him respectfully.
Duan Kun pointed at Li Se and ordered, “Kill this kid!”
The dozen people surrounded Li Se simultaneously.
Duan Kun’s face showed smugness. He refused to believe Li Se could fight over a dozen men alone. He then shifted his attention back to Zhang Aimin, tutting, “So beautiful. Follow me, and you’ll have fine food and drink. As for this kid, hehe…”
Before his laughter could subside, a series of screams followed. In the blink of an eye, those dozen men, like the ones before them, were all lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
“This… this…” Seeing Li Se approaching him, Duan Kun truly started to panic. “You… don’t come any closer. My uncle is Lin Hui. Do you know Lin Hui? If you dare touch me, my uncle won’t let you off!”
“Lin Hui?” Li Se couldn’t help but pause, then let out a disdainful chuckle. “Then by all means, let your uncle come.”
“I’m telling you, this clubhouse is owned by my uncle. Just you wait!” Duan Kun took out his phone and called Lin Hui. “Uncle, someone is beating me at the clubhouse. Come quickly!”
After the call, Duan Kun looked at Li Se coldly and said triumphantly, “My uncle will send people over soon. Just wait and see how he deals with you!”
In less than five minutes, the people Duan Kun had called arrived, but it wasn’t Lin Hui. It was Lin Tianrui. When he saw Li Se, he almost jumped out of his skin.
“Li… Li Se, what are you doing here?” Lin Tianrui was now hesitant to offend Li Se. Moreover, he had just bowed to Li Se today, and his father had also warned him not to provoke Li Se again.
He never expected to run into Li Se again in less than half a day.
“Call me Master Li!” Li Se said coldly.
“Master Li,” Lin Tianrui could only grit his teeth and say.
“Hurry up and kill him!” Duan Kun shouted.
“He’s all yours. Daring to touch my woman!” Li Se said calmly.
Lin Tianrui waved his hand. “Take this Duan Kun away, you ignorant fool!”
“Ah, why are you arresting me? It’s him…” Duan Kun was utterly bewildered.
“Make him kneel and apologize!” Li Se said coldly.
Lin Tianrui’s expression shifted slightly, then he glared fiercely at Duan Kun and roared, “Kneel and apologize to Master Li!”
Even if Duan Kun was foolish, he knew Li Se was someone he couldn’t afford to offend. He then knelt and apologized to Li Se and Zhang Aimin. After apologizing, he was escorted out of the private room.
“Master Li, today’s expenses are all complimentary,” Lin Tianrui said.
He didn’t dare to linger. After all, it was best to avoid meeting Li Se in the future to save himself annoyance.
The private room fell silent. Li Se walked up to Zhang Aimin and asked with confusion, “Sister Min, I recall you were a senior executive at a large company. Why are you selling insurance now?”
Tears welled up in Zhang Aimin’s eyes. “Li Se, please don’t ask too many questions. I’m just an insurance seller now…”
“Sister Min, if you’re facing any difficulties, you can tell me directly, and I’ll help you.” Li Se knew Zhang Aimin’s character well. Although she was a widow, she was usually very proud. After all, she had climbed from the bottom to a senior executive position in a major company through her own abilities. For her to be selling insurance in a place like this was definitely out of character.
Zhang Aimin shook her head. “Li Se, I will handle this myself.”
Seeing that Zhang Aimin was unwilling to say anything, Li Se felt a little helpless. He then informed Chen Bin and Chu Mingxuan, took Zhang Aimin, and left the clubhouse.
Although Zhang Aimin didn’t say anything, Li Se could roughly guess what was happening, most likely related to Zhang Aimin’s husband’s family.
Even though Li Se had dealt with that mother and son, they clearly wouldn’t let Zhang Aimin off easily. It seemed he had been too soft-hearted before.
As they just came out of the clubhouse, Zhang Aimin received a phone call. Her expression instantly changed. “I understand. I’ll be there right away.”
“Sister Min, what’s wrong?” Li Se asked.
Zhang Aimin sighed. “That mother and son are here again. They’ve gone to my new company.”
“I’ll take you there,” Li Se told Zhang Aimin to wait here for a moment. He went to the parking lot, got his car, and drove Zhang Aimin to her current company.
Along the way, Zhang Aimin finally explained the situation.
It turned out that the mother and son had gone to Zhang Aimin’s previous company to cause trouble, spreading rumors that Zhang Aimin had caused her husband’s death, occupied his house, and used his earnings to keep a lover. They claimed that this was why they were now homeless. Most infuriatingly, they had also falsely accused Zhang Aimin of keeping a gigolo.
Zhang Aimin hadn’t intended to pay attention to the mother and son, but they came every day, causing trouble. Eventually, Zhang Aimin couldn’t bear it any longer and resigned, changing to a new company. However, she never expected that the mother and son would follow her to the new company.
About ten minutes later, Li Se’s car stopped in front of a company. From a distance, he saw Gao Yi and his mother yelling and making a scene at the company entrance.
“Oh, Zhang Aimin is truly a slut! My son was killed by her, she took over my son’s house, and used my son’s earnings to keep a gigolo! How could I have such a daughter-in-law? She even kicked us out not long ago…” Mother Gao wailed, tears streaming down her face.
