He paused and continued, "How dare a mere thief sit with us so openly? Who is this showing disrespect to?"
"Brother Yuan is right, we all support Brother Yuan!" A young man stepped forward to cheer.
The other young men nodded in agreement. They all cast disdainful glances at Mu Feng, as if he were truly a thief.
Mu Feng's smile gradually froze. He sighed and said, "One can eat anything, but one shouldn't speak carelessly. I haven't stolen anything or robbed anyone, so why are you people calling me a thief? I'm not happy about that!"
Zhou Yuan snorted coldly, "You're not happy? I say you stole, so you stole! Are you going to keep making excuses?"
"You people are really too much! You won't let us leave, what exactly do you want?" Gu Yan'er was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.
Zhou Yuan chuckled slyly, "You know your brother's character best. What do we want? We want him to kneel and kowtow to each of us. Then this matter will be settled!"
Mu Feng pointed at himself, finding it somewhat amusing. "Are you saying I should kneel and kowtow to you?"
He nodded and sneered, "Exactly. Do you have any objections?"
"I don't want to stoop to your level today, and I also ask that you don't provoke me, otherwise the consequences will be very serious!" Mu Feng's anger was steadily rising.
Zhou Yuan put on a smug expression and said triumphantly, "If you don't kneel and apologize, then my brothers and I won't be happy!"
The other young men also clenched their fists and patted them, showing off their strength to Mu Feng.
Mu Feng stretched lazily and asked curiously, "I'm just puzzled. I haven't offended you, nor have I even met you before. Why are you picking a fight with me for no reason?"
Zhou Yuan retorted sarcastically, "I just can't stand seeing someone scamming and deceiving here. Will you kneel or not?"
Mu Feng shook his head and asked, "What if I don't kneel?"
"Then we'll have to reluctantly help you!" Zhou Yuan said with a mocking look, preparing to make a move.
Hao Yue spread her arms, blocking Mu Feng and the other. "You've really had enough! Please leave immediately. You are not welcome at my birthday party!"
Zhou Yuan's facial muscles twitched non-stop. He hated Mu Feng with all his heart.
In his eyes, it was because of this brat's presence that his goddess was so indifferent to him.
"Xiao Yue, you must not be fooled by this guy's honest appearance. This kind of man is the most disgusting!" Zhou Yuan spread his hands and kept explaining.
"Shut up! If you dare to touch this handsome guy, we'll break off our friendship!"
Hao Yue's words did not make them restrain themselves; instead, they became even more brazen.
Zhou Yuan turned all his attention to Mu Feng, pointing at his nose and saying, "You brat, you're tired of living! Brothers, this guy has a punchable face. Let's beat him severely until he begs for mercy!"
Up until this point, Mu Feng had been holding back, as this was Gu Yan'er's roommate's birthday party, and he didn't want to cause any unpleasantness.
However, the other party had pushed him to this extent, and it was unbearable.
Several of them swung beer bottles and, without a word, smashed them down fiercely towards Mu Feng's head.
Mu Feng sighed, "I didn't want to cause trouble, but if you insist on forcing me, then I can only apologize."
Seeing the beer bottle about to hit him, Hao Yue's face turned pale with fright.
However, how could these petty thugs be his match?
Before Zhou Yuan could react, he suddenly found that the beer bottle in his hand had disappeared.
Facing his empty hand, he frowned in confusion.
What happened next stunned everyone present.
Mu Feng, who had somehow snatched the beer bottle, smashed it fiercely onto Zhou Yuan's forehead in front of everyone.
With a loud crash, the glass bottle shattered, and blood poured down from Zhou Yuan's forehead.
Zhou Yuan trembled, feeling a warm sensation flow down, and instinctively touched his head.
Looking at his hand full of blood, he was so scared that he started shaking all over. "It's all blood! This brat is absolutely unforgivable! You hit me with a beer bottle?"
Mu Feng sneered, "You're really crying wolf, aren't you? Didn't you start it? To put it nicely, I was just defending myself!"
"Brat, I'm going to smash you to death! Smash you to death!"
To be hit in the head in front of his goddess, how could he tolerate this?
Zhou Yuan, enraged, grabbed a shard of glass and fiercely lunged it towards Mu Feng's neck.
"You really don't know when to quit. Then I'll have to teach you a lesson!"
Mu Feng easily dodged his attack, then directly raised his leg and kicked him hard in the stomach.
Zhou Yuan felt his insides churn, clutching his stomach and rolling on the ground.
The other young men exchanged glances and dared not step forward anymore. After all, they had never seen such a scene.
"Alright everyone, if you wish to stay here, please sit down. If you want to leave, you can leave now!"
Mu Feng gradually resumed his smile. These people were not on the same level as him, and he was too lazy to bother with them.
Zhou Yuan, panting, was helped up with difficulty. He was full of rage but had no outlet for it.
However, for the sake of his goddess, he had to stay.
Zhou Yuan covered his wound with a tissue and dejectedly sat in a corner of the sofa, saying nothing.
"That was just a minor interlude. Everyone, let's continue drinking and singing!" Mu Feng clapped his hands and found a place to sit down.
Hao Yue walked up to him and said apologetically, "Handsome guy, I'm truly sorry for putting you in a difficult situation!"
Mu Feng waved his hand, "It's not a big deal. I should be the one apologizing. I've ruined a perfectly good birthday party!"
She was flattered and quickly shook her head, "No, no, I'm the one who should apologize. For making it so difficult for you, and for receiving such a valuable gift, I really feel bad!"
Gu Yan'er put her arm around Hao Yue's. "Alright Xiao Yue, you should be happy too. Don't let irrelevant people affect your mood!"
Zhou Yuan, from somewhere, found a bandage and wrapped it around his head.
Mu Feng had held back when he acted; his injury was only superficial. After being wrapped, it was nothing.
"Brother Yuan, stop sulking. We can find a chance to get rid of this guy, can't we?" A bespectacled man whispered in comfort.
Zhou Yuan gritted his teeth, "I just can't swallow this. Xiao Yue is still so enthusiastic about him. Why? Why?"
