As they spoke, the main door to the reception hall was opened.
A group of men in black suits and sunglasses appeared at the entrance.
There were quite a few of them, a rough estimate showed a dense crowd, possibly no less than a hundred.
These hundred men stood still, their faces stern, as if they had lost a million at cards last night. Their expressions were so grim that they completely blocked the doorway, leaving no room for passage.
Tong Yao looked at the people before her, clutching Bai Xi's arm tighter, her eyes filled with terror.
Yes, she knew Xi'er was part of the Dark Department, or at least a commander, very powerful. But today, only Xi'er had come here to try on a wedding dress, and she had brought her. Apart from Han Mo, this "frail" doctor, no bodyguards had been brought.
Now that she was alone, with so many security personnel here, Xi'er wouldn't be at a disadvantage, would she?
"It all started because of me. If you want trouble, come to me. Don't involve innocent people!"
After saying this, she tried to let go and rush towards Zheng Qian.
Bai Xi immediately held her back, stopping her actions, and gave her a reassuring smile.
Although no words were spoken, looking at the smile, Tong Yao felt inexplicably at ease. "Xi'er."
Zheng Qian immediately said to these men in black suits, "These three people came to Hua Man to cause trouble. They are extremely vicious and broke my fiancé's hand. Quickly apprehend them. If they dare to resist, you are merely acting in self-defense!"
The implication of these words was that they could act freely, and Hua Man Bridal Couture would bear the responsibility.
With this statement, the men in black suits, whose faces were devoid of expression, revealed a sinister smile. "Yes."
Saying so, they moved towards Bai Xi and the other two.
Bai Xi stood her ground and looked at Tong Yao, preparing to have her release her arm.
Just then, Han Mo smiled slightly and said, "Xi'er is wearing a dress today, so please leave the beating to me."
Tong Yao was stunned. "Doctor Han, you..."
Was Doctor Han going to fight them?
Although Doctor Han was tall and had a perfectly proportioned physique, standing before these burly men in black suits, who seemed as if they were inflated with air, he was clearly outmatched.
How could he possibly win?
"Xi'er, you should still try to persuade him..."
Don't let Han Mo go forward. Call for help from the Dark Department now. That's the best course of action.
But before she could finish, Bai Xi nodded at Han Mo with a smile. "Alright, it's up to you."
Before, she had indeed thought he was just a doctor saving lives and healing the injured, but now she knew he was the City Lord of Qing Yu City. She had specifically inquired about the City Lord of Qing Yu City when she wanted to treat her brother.
Besides his peerless medical skills, the City Lord of Qing Yu City also possessed considerable martial prowess. Coupled with his skillful interventions on several occasions before, dealing with a few useless brutes who were all show and no substance should be effortless.
Thinking of this, she felt a rare moment of playful good humor. "Go for it, A'Mo. I'll be cheering you on from here!"
Saying this, she was somewhat surprised herself. She never thought she would have such girlish thoughts. But this feeling... was surprisingly not bad.
Han Mo looked at the smile on Bai Xi's face, and the warmth in his heart grew even more. "Yes, with your cheering, I will definitely fight even better."
Seeing their interaction, Zheng Qian grew even more enraged.
Not only did they disregard her threats, but they were also openly displaying affection in front of her and her subordinates, practically showing no regard for them.
"Attack! Are you all dead?"
With these words, the men in black suits finally snapped out of the overwhelming display of affection. "Attack!"
With that, all the well-built men in suits charged forward. The ones at the front even pulled out long electric batons. The batons were activated, crackling with electricity, and were about to be brought down forcefully onto Han Mo's head.
Han Mo dodged directly and delivered a fierce kick to the man's stomach. The man was sent flying several meters away, and also landed on top of another.
Tong Yao's eyes widened in astonishment. "How can Doctor Han..."
Be so good at fighting?
Could it be that besides being a doctor, he also practiced martial arts frequently?
Han Mo's movements were not large within the crowd, yet he was almost invincible. While shocking Tong Yao, he also shocked those men in black suits. How could this slender young man, who didn't look particularly robust, be so formidable?
Especially as more and more people fell before him, they began to retreat, no longer daring to advance.
Tong Yao watched with shining eyes. "So cool. Xi'er, you've really found a treasure."
She had initially thought Han Mo was just a doctor with good medical skills, and that he was not worthy of her Xi'er. But now, it seemed Xi'er had indeed found a treasure.
When saving lives, Doctor Han appeared gentle and reserved.
When fighting, Doctor Han appeared dashing and fierce.
Both demeanors were captivating and completely opposite. Xi'er truly had good taste!
Bai Xi raised an eyebrow. "I know."
Seeing this, Zheng Qian shouted, "Are you all stupid? If you can't defeat that man, can't you subdue his woman first?"
Her initial intention was merely to provoke Tong Yao, as this woman was Qin Mu's first love. It was said that Qin Mu had devoted a lot to her, only to be abandoned in the end.
That wasn't all. This woman had also made her friend come out and humiliate Qin Mu. Qin Mu was so good, yet he had suffered such insult. As Qin Mu's fiancée, she simply wanted to avenge her fiancé and humiliate Tong Yao, making her experience the taste of humiliation.
But she hadn't expected to encounter such a situation.
She surmised that the woman who poured her tea and coffee was the one who had helped Tong Yao humiliate Qin Mu back then. She hadn't expected that after all these years, they were still in league with each other, and now they had harmed Qin Mu again and insulted her.
She was simply more deserving of death than Tong Yao!
Therefore, she was determined to see this wicked woman meet a miserable end.
As soon as she spoke, those who were attacking Han Mo instantly had an epiphany. One should always pick on the weaker opponent! The next second, a portion of the men in black suits exchanged glances and prepared to attack Bai Xi and Tong Yao.
Some held daggers, one held an iron pipe, and others held long knives...
Tong Yao, terrified, clung tightly to Bai Xi's arm. "You, you don't come any closer! My friend is also very capable."
Bai Xi turned her head, gently patted Tong Yao's head, and said softly, "Hold on to me tightly, don't let go. But if you are truly scared, close your eyes."
Tong Yao blinked slightly, a faint blush appearing on her face.
Ahhh, how could Xi'er be so gentle? If she were a man, she would definitely marry her.
With that thought, her eyes widened, and the fear in them vanished, replaced by bright starlight. "I don't want to close my eyes. Xi'er, as long as you are here, I am not afraid!"
