Chapter 18 It Snapped with a Gentle Twist

Ye Huohuo had just sensed something strange about the feng shui here when she lost focus and was almost attacked.

By the time she reacted, the person who was about to grab her had his wrist broken and was screaming incessantly.

She looked in surprise at the man standing beside her, who was like a clothes rack, replaying the information about Li Moyan in her mind.

In order to quickly integrate into the Li family, she had done her homework and studied the information of every member of the Li family.

The information showed that Li Moyan was a big star, whose handsome face, attractive to both men and women, had made him famous all over the country. He had won so many acting awards that he had successfully transitioned from a young heartthrob to a skilled actor.

However, her information did not mention that this Li Moyan knew martial arts.

The lock he just performed required several years of practice to be so clean and sharp.

"Did you practice martial arts?" Ye Huohuo blinked her cat-like eyes, her dark pupils sparkling under the light of the surrounding red lanterns.

"I'm an actor, so of course I've filmed kung fu movies and learned some," Li Moyan said softly, his tone casual.

"No, that's not just for show!" Ye Huohuo was also good at martial arts, so she had this discerning eye.

Li Moyan chuckled, "It seems nothing can be hidden from you. I used to like fighting when I was young, and all this is from actual combat experience. But then I was taught a lesson by my elder brother, and I haven't fought since. It's been a while! My hands are getting itchy."

Li Moyan's words were half true and half false, and Ye Huohuo always felt that things were not that simple. However, it was not the time to talk about this. Seeing that dozens of people were about to charge at them, even if they were Nezha with multiple arms, they couldn't handle them.

"Alright, kid, you've got some skills. I didn't expect you, dressed like a civilized person, to still be a martial artist." The burly man with tattoos on his arm also saw through it, and his tone was a little better than before.

Seeing an opportunity, Ye Huohuo quickly said, "Brother, we just came here to take a look and didn't intend to bother anyone. We've already given this brother money for tea. If you think it's too little, we can add more. There's no need for you to make things difficult for us, right?"

Knowing what to say when and where was something she learned from fortune-telling and feng shui under the overpass.

Since she descended the mountain and entered the mortal world, after suffering losses a few times due to her stubborn personality, she finally understood that she couldn't always rely on brute force. When in a disadvantaged position, it was also important to show weakness appropriately to preserve one's strength.

In this situation, Li Moyan had already made a move against the other party, so she had to be the one to appease them.

So she quickly said nice words, hoping to resolve the big issues into small ones and the small issues into none.

"Oh, you're sensible. We brothers came out here, so the tea money shouldn't be too little. How about this, is it too much to ask for a million to treat my brothers to tea!" the tattooed man said with a smile, looking at Ye Huohuo and Li Moyan.

When Ye Huohuo heard the amount, her hair almost stood on end. A million?

She charged a hundred for a fortune-telling session and five hundred for feng shui. How long would it take to earn that? At most, she could find two hundred yuan in her pockets right now.

She rolled her eyes. She didn't have it, but Li Moyan should. Seeing him casually pull out a wad of cash from his pocket, this amount of money must be nothing to the Li family.

So she turned her head, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in Li Moyan's ear, "Hey, do you have a million?"

Li Moyan's expression was hidden by his mask, but his eyes were filled with embarrassment. "The ten thousand I just gave away was borrowed. All my money is tied up in a new film I'm shooting. I can't get the money out right now!"

Ye Huohuo looked at this rich person who was poorer than her with some disdain and sighed, "Why don't you borrow some from your elder brother and repay him when you have money! We have to find a way to get through this!"

Li Moyan looked at the tattooed man, then at the dozens of people surrounding them. A wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him. "Okay, I can give you a million, but I don't have cash on me now. I'll call my family and have them prepare it."

He said this and took out his phone to make a call.

Suddenly, for some reason, his hand trembled, and the phone fell to the ground, shattering and becoming completely dark.

Ye Huohuo quickly picked up the phone, but no matter how she tapped it, it wouldn't light up.

She furrowed her brow and looked at Li Moyan, seeing that the dark aura between his eyebrows had deepened.

She couldn't help but curse inwardly, "So unlucky. Why did he have to come with me? Why didn't I see the dark aura between his eyebrows before?"

Li Moyan, like her, was enveloped in bad luck at this moment, with everything going wrong and misfortune befalling them.

As expected, when the tattooed man saw that Li Moyan's phone had fallen to the ground and was broken, he immediately got angry. "Are you trying to fool me? I see you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Brothers, arrest them and let them taste the consequences of messing with me!"

As soon as the subordinates heard their boss give the order, they all rushed forward as if they had been injected with chicken blood, fearing that if they were too slow, they would anger their boss.

Ye Huohuo saw that it was over! All her previous efforts were in vain, and a fight was unavoidable.

Although both of them had decent martial arts skills, they were no match for so many opponents, and they were under the influence of bad luck, so they were quickly at a disadvantage.

The two stood back to back, panting. Li Moyan's hat had already been knocked off, but his mask was still on his face, not fully exposed.

"It's over, if they see my face, I'm ruined!" Li Moyan mumbled softly.

Just then, Ye Huohuo saw a subordinate reach out to grab Li Moyan's mask. Without thinking, Ye Huohuo grabbed the subordinate's hand and twisted it backward.

In fact, she didn't exert much force, but she heard a "crack" sound. The subordinate's arm was forcibly twisted and broken, and the bone shards pierced through the flesh and protruded from his forearm.

Blood immediately flowed out like it was free, looking terrifyingly severe.

This move not only shocked Ye Huohuo, who quickly let go, but even the surrounding subordinates stopped fighting and scattered into a circle, surrounding Ye Huohuo and Li Moyan in the middle.

The subordinate with the broken arm was still lying on the ground, holding his broken limb and groaning in pain.

Li Moyan was also stunned by the scene, his eyes wide. "Damn, you're even more formidable than me. At most, I can only dislocate someone's wrist, but you directly break their arm!"

"Third Brother!" The tattooed man, who had been observing, rushed over and helped up the subordinate on the ground. "Third Brother, how are you?"

"Big Brother, my arm, my arm! It's killing me!" The subordinate's face was pale and he looked like he was about to faint from the pain.

The tattooed man suddenly looked up and glared furiously at Ye Huohuo. "You, you dare to break my own brother's arm, I'll make you pay with your life today!"

Ye Huohuo felt her head buzz, and she cursed herself internally, misfortune, more misfortune. Even a fight could lead to a life-threatening situation.

Looking at the tattooed man's angry, bloodshot eyes, Ye Huohuo swallowed and pushed Li Moyan behind her. "If there's a chance later, you run first! Don't worry about me!"

"How can I do that? I can't leave you here alone, especially in this situation."

Li Moyan pulled Ye Huohuo behind him. "Sir, my sister here absolutely didn't mean it. You saw how weak she is with her slender arms and legs, it was completely an accidental injury. How about this, I'll give you another million to treat this brother's arm, what do you say?"

"Do you think I only care about money? Let me tell you, I, Hua Long, am also someone who runs this area. If my own brother is injured like this, and I only take money, what will my brothers think of me! This little girl won't be leaving today.

I'll make her a prostitute for the rest of her life to repay my brother for his arm!" The tattooed man's eyes became increasingly red.
