The man left after speaking.
"Tsk, what a joke! I thought he was supposed to be impressive!" Li Fei became even more smug upon seeing the other person depart.
However, Ye Feng shook his head and began to mourn for Li Fei.
Ye Feng recognized the man from earlier; more accurately, he had seen him before.
That person had appeared at Old Yang's sixtieth birthday celebration. His name was He Hongyi, the eldest young master of the He family, one of the three major families in Dongchuan City.
Ye Feng had a minor conflict with him back then, which was why he remembered him.
Therefore, Li Fei's arrogant insults just now would likely not end well for him.
After He Hongyi left, Li Fei turned his gaze back to Ye Feng and the others, saying, "What, you all go quiet when it comes to paying for yourselves?"
Ye Feng heard this and calmly replied, "Paying for ourselves is no big deal! It's like you're saying we can't even afford a meal!"
"Exactly! Although I don't have money, I have integrity! At worst, I'll wash dishes in this Dragon King Hall for a few years!" Song Yang declared loudly.
Hearing this, Li Yue immediately stood up and applauded, "Good, good! Impressive, full of integrity, I admire you!"
Li Yue's meaning was clear: he would not be paying for Ye Feng and the others.
However, Ye Feng and his group did not need him to pay.
Li Yue, however, believed that without his payment, Ye Feng and the others would definitely not be able to afford it, and even if they could, the loss would be too great for them. This was why he was so arrogant.
As expected, the next moment Li Yue spoke, "Since you are so full of integrity, I will fulfill your integrity. The three of you can pay for yourselves later!"
The three Li Yue referred to were naturally Ye Feng, Song Yang, and Chen Xiaoyue.
However, to everyone's surprise, the class monitor also spoke up at this moment, "I'll pay for myself too! I can still afford a meal!"
"Good, good, good! May I ask if anyone else wants to pay for themselves?" Li Yue asked the crowd.
Many people were quite displeased with Li Yue's actions, but thinking about tens of thousands of yuan, they remained silent.
Seeing this, Li Yue's face immediately showed a smug expression.
However, just then, He Hongyi, whom Li Fei had insulted earlier, walked in with five or six burly men.
This scene startled everyone, and they all showed expressions of fear.
The next second, He Hongyi directly shouted, "Who was it that insulted me just now?"
Hearing his words, everyone's gaze involuntarily turned towards Li Fei.
This terrified Li Fei. He quickly looked at Li Yue for help, "Brother Yue, save, save me!"
He Hongyi saw everyone's gazes and immediately spotted Li Fei, pointing directly at him and shouting, "It's this scoundrel! Beat him up!"
The six burly men heard this and moved to act.
Li Yue saw this and quickly shouted, "Stop! In broad daylight, what do you think you're doing?"
The six burly men turned to look at He Hongyi, as if asking him what to do.
He Hongyi was extremely exasperated and directly cursed, "What are you looking at me for? Beat him up too!"
Hearing this, the six men immediately became ruthless and rushed forward, beating up the two of them until they cried out in pain.
Seeing this, the class monitor was about to stand up and try to mediate, but Ye Feng stopped him.
The surrounding classmates watched, not daring to help at all, even keeping their distance.
"Brothers, let's talk this out properly. It was Li Fei who insulted you earlier. Beat him, not me!!"
After taking a few blows, Li Yue quickly begged for mercy and shifted the blame to Li Fei.
This confused Li Fei, who quickly asked, "Brother Yue, why, why can you do this?"
"Hmph, isn't this all caused by your loose tongue? What does it have to do with me!" Li Yue quickly said.
At this moment, He Hongyi also spoke up, "That's right, it was that guy who insulted me. Hit his mouth hard!"
Hearing this, those men immediately gave Li Fei special attention.
After more than a dozen slaps, Li Fei's mouth was swollen, and his entire head was beaten into a pig's head.
Seeing this, Li Yue quickly said, "Brother, calm down! That's enough. If you keep hitting him, someone will die!"
As he spoke, he took out a cigarette and offered it to He Hongyi.
But He Hongyi did not appreciate it. One of his men slapped the cigarette away and angrily said, "Brother? I am the eldest young master of the He family. You dare to call me brother? Get lost, or I'll beat you too!"
"What? Eldest Young Master He?" Li Yue heard this and immediately dared not speak.
At this time, the class monitor spoke, "This won't do, we need to find a way! If they keep hitting him like this, Li Fei will really die!"
"Yes! Although Li Fei is annoying, if they keep hitting him like this, something serious will happen!" Chen Xiaoyue also said.
Ye Feng saw this and sighed, "Alright!"
Just as everyone was wondering what to do, a voice rang out, "He Hongyi, that's enough!"
Hearing this, He Hongyi was stunned. He felt the voice was somewhat familiar, and he wondered how the person knew his name.
However, he didn't think much of it and arrogantly said, "Who the hell is calling my name? Is your name something you can just call out?"
"Oh? Do I have to call you Young Master He as well?"
The more He Hongyi heard this voice, the more familiar it felt, but he couldn't recall who it was, so he started searching the crowd.
The others, however, were all stunned. They recognized the voice as Ye Feng's and thus all looked at Ye Feng.
He Hongyi followed their gaze and was stunned when he saw the person.
Then he rubbed his eyes, as if to confirm he wasn't mistaken.
"What? Haven't seen me in a few days, and you don't recognize me anymore?" Ye Feng smiled.
However, He Hongyi was terrified, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and his legs felt weak.
He trembled and said, "You, you are Ye, Mr. Ye?"
"It seems you remember!" Ye Feng said with a faint smile, standing up and walking over.
Seeing Ye Feng's smile, He Hongyi immediately remembered the incident at Old Yang's sixtieth birthday and quickly said, "Ye, Mr. Ye, I..."
"Ahem, can you tell your men to stop?" Ye Feng came up to him, coughed lightly to interrupt him, and then winked.
Seeing Ye Feng wink, He Hongyi seemed to realize something and quickly said, "Oh, alright! You all stop!"
"Yes! Young Master!" The six burly men then stopped and moved to the side.
He Hongyi was still sweating profusely and continued, "Mr. Ye, I apologize, I..."
"It's fine! Take your people and leave. Don't disturb our class reunion!" Ye Feng said calmly.
Seeing this, He Hongyi was somewhat confused.
However, he noticed that Ye Feng did not seem angry but had a smile on his face, and in that smile, there seemed to be a hint of pleasure.
Seeing this, he then led his men away.
After they left, all the classmates present were dumbfounded, staring at Ye Feng with expressions of shock...
