The island city at three in the afternoon.
Jin Hailu and Xue Lingxian were enjoying afternoon tea at a coffee shop.
Four beautiful women sitting together were an eye-catching sight.
Just then, a young man dressed in designer brands and wearing a luxury watch walked over.
"Hello, four beautiful ladies. I am Jiang Yihang, the owner of this shop. May I have the pleasure of your company?" the young man said with a smile.
"I'm sorry, we don't wish to make your acquaintance. Please leave," Jin Hailu said indifferently.
Unfazed by Jin Hailu's rejection, Jiang Yihang continued, "Why should the four of you refuse? Isn't it true that having more friends opens more doors? To be frank, my father is the owner of Crown Media. I see that all of you are exceptionally talented, and if you were to enter the entertainment industry, you would surely shine brightly."
"We're not interested. Can you leave now?" Lin Ying said.
Rejected for the second time, Jiang Yihang's expression finally showed a hint of awkwardness.
"It's alright. Even if we can't be friends, your bill is on the house. Please enjoy," Jiang Yihang said before turning to leave.
"This guy is quite slick with his tactics," Xin Xin said with a smile after Jiang Yihang had gone.
"There are always people who fall for his routine," Lin Ying replied.
More than ten minutes later, a group of men walked in.
Their eyes quickly fell upon the four women.
"Four beautiful ladies, don't you have boyfriends? Would you like us gentlemen to be your boyfriends?"
"We gentlemen are very good at making girls happy."
"We can bring you joy and satisfaction, day or night."
The men approached with smirking faces and spoke provocatively.
"If you don't want to die, get lost."
Just then, Jiang Yihang reappeared.
"Get out of here and stop meddling," the leader of the group yelled at Jiang Yihang.
"I am the owner of this establishment. Are you sure you want to cause trouble in my shop?" Jiang Yihang said angrily.
"Oh, so you're the owner. We're leaving now." The men's expressions turned fearful, and they quickly turned to leave.
But at that moment, Qin Hanchu blocked their path.
"Leaving already?" Qin Hanchu said coldly.
"Damn it, don't you dare..."
*Bang!*
Qin Hanchu didn't waste words with them and kicked the leader flying.
*Cough, cough...*
The man lay on the ground, coughing up blood in agony, a testament to the force of Qin Hanchu's kick.
"Brother... this is a misunderstanding..."
"We were just paid to act. Please let us go."
Witnessing their companion's dire state, the remaining men cried out in terror.
"Did you hire these extras?" Qin Hanchu asked Jiang Yihang.
"Yes, I did!" Jiang Yihang knew he couldn't hide it and confessed.
"Kneel and apologize, then get out," Qin Hanchu commanded.
Jiang Yihang glared at Qin Hanchu, "You want me to kneel and apologize? Who the hell do you think you are?"
"If you don't want to apologize, then don't," Qin Hanchu replied.
With that, Qin Hanchu kicked Jiang Yihang's knee.
With a crack, Jiang Yihang was forced to his knees, screaming in agony.
"You dare to hurt me? Do you know who my cousin is?" Jiang Yihang roared through the pain.
Qin Hanchu chuckled, "Do tell!"
"He is the Commander of the Garrison!" Jiang Yihang declared angrily.
The Garrison and the Pacification Army belonged to two different systems.
The Pacification Army was under the local governor, while the Garrison was directly dispatched by the Great Yan Kingdom's War Department.
In comparison, a Commander of the Garrison held a more prestigious position than a Commander of the Pacification Army.
"If he dares to provoke me, I'll cripple him too!" Qin Hanchu snorted.
"You just wait!" Jiang Yihang said through gritted teeth.
Qin Hanchu ignored Jiang Yihang and turned to the four women with a smile, "Would you like to continue eating?"
"We've only just started!" Xue Lingxian said with a hint of frustration.
Qin Hanchu sat down beside Lin Ying, "Then let's sit a while longer, and perhaps wait for this brother's cousin."
Even if Qin Hanchu left, the other party would find him. It was better to resolve the trouble here.
"If you have the guts, don't run!" Jiang Yihang shouted.
Qin Hanchu suddenly picked up a fork from the table and casually flicked it.
*Ah!*
Jiang Yihang screamed again as the fork Qin Hanchu flicked pierced the back of his foot.
"Watch your mouth!" Qin Hanchu then called out to the stunned waiter, "One bubble tea and a slice of mousse cake!"
The waiter dared not refuse and quickly complied.
Forty minutes later, over a dozen army-green jeeps pulled up outside.
Following them, more than forty soldiers in uniform stormed in!
The leader was Jiang Yihang's cousin, Commander Jiang!
"Cousin, you must avenge me!" Seeing Commander Jiang, Jiang Yihang wailed tearfully.
"Someone, take him down!"
Seeing Jiang Yihang's pathetic state, Commander Jiang was filled with rage. He immediately ordered Qin Hanchu to be apprehended.
"Are you sure you want to apprehend me?" Qin Hanchu looked coldly at Commander Jiang.
"What? Are you still going to fight us?"
"If you dare to make a move, I will kill you on the spot. Do you believe me?"
Commander Jiang, as the Commander of the Garrison, exuded a terrifying aura of killing intent!
Qin Hanchu daring to injure his cousin was a capital offense!
However, he preferred not to deal with Qin Hanchu here.
But if Qin Hanchu resisted, he could be executed on the spot!
"Weren't you very arrogant? Didn't you say you would cripple my cousin? If you have the guts, then make a move!" Jiang Yihang's face was pale as he furiously taunted.
Qin Hanchu picked up another fork and flicked it again!
Jiang Yihang did not expect Qin Hanchu to make another move. Before he could react, the fork had already embedded itself in his shoulder!
"Kill him!" Commander Jiang roared, his eyes bulging with fury, upon seeing this.
The Garrison soldiers drew their swords and charged at Qin Hanchu!
These Garrison soldiers were all at least Rank Six in strength and were quite formidable.
However, they were no match for Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu rose to meet them, his fists and feet flying, knocking down his opponents one by one.
Moments later, all the Garrison soldiers lay groaning on the ground, leaving only Commander Jiang standing stunned!
"You court death!" Commander Jiang, knowing he was no match for Qin Hanchu, suddenly pulled out a firearm, aiming the dark muzzle at Qin Hanchu!
"Using a gun?" Qin Hanchu looked at Commander Jiang without fear!
"You're so good at fighting, aren't you? If you have the nerve, make another move!" Commander Jiang said with enraged eyes.
Qin Hanchu smiled and pointed outside the coffee shop, "My people are here. Dare to fire a shot and see what happens!"
Commander Jiang turned his head to look and saw over a hundred Blood Battle soldiers rushing in!
Upon seeing Commander Jiang pointing his gun at Qin Hanchu, all the Blood Battle soldiers immediately drew their weapons!
"Put down your gun, old man!" The Commander of the Blood Battle Army, a formidable expert at the peak of Rank Nine, roared while brandishing his long saber.
Commander Jiang was stunned. Qin Hanchu could actually mobilize the Blood Battle Army?
The Blood Battle Army was an elite force directly subordinate to the Governor and the Pacification Commissioner. Only these two paramount figures could deploy them!
Surrounded by the Blood Battle Army, Commander Jiang dared not be reckless. He reluctantly put away his gun and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
