Chapter 71: Situation Is Reversed, All Are Dumbfounded
“They’ve simply gone too far this time!”
“Aren’t they just bullying people?”
“Where has law and order gone!”
All the cla.s.smates were filled with righteous indignation. At this time, they had only graduated a year ago, and their thinking had not yet been eroded by society, so they could still be hot-blooded.
In addition, they had all drank alcohol. The guys were red in the face, as they flung the door open and rushed out one after the other.
The remaining girls also quickly put down their cutlery, following after them.
“Let’s go take a look!”
Lu Xuan and Li Guanghui stepped out the door, and there was the sound of a ruckus coming from down the hallway.
By the time Lu Xuan had rushed over to the entrance to private room number one, he discovered people strewn across the floor.
The male cla.s.smates from before who were burning with righteous fury and wanted to come help Ren Bingbing were now sprawled out on the floor.
Someone had beaten them to the ground!
At the entrance to the private room, a burly strongman who looked like an iron tower blocked the doorway, giving off a powerful sense of pressure.
The man who had pulled Ren Bingbing out of the room earlier was now enduring a verbal a.s.sault by the female cla.s.smates.
“Zhang Yaoyang, how dare you still have the face to call Bingbing your girlfriend? You’re just giving her away to someone else?” Dong Qianqian said as she stabbed at Ren Bingbing’s boyfriend with her finger.
“You guys, stop pestering me and making trouble, Bingbing is just going in there to have a couple of drinks, it’ll be fine!”
Zhang Yaoyang continued to fend them off, looking very sullen.
“You say we are pestering you and making trouble? Are you still a man?” Dong Qianqian scolded, pointing at him.
Now that the boys were lying beaten on the floor, the rest of the girls were fl.u.s.tered and at a loss.
“Call a doctor first!”
At that moment, Lu Xuan stepped forward, taking in the situation and ordering the others around.
As though they had suddenly found a pillar of support, the others quickly rallied around Lu Xuan.
“Hui, let’s go save her!”
Saying this, Lu Xuan made a beeline for private room number one, not even sparing Zhang Yaoyang a single glance.
Zhang Yaoyang noticed the way Lu Xuan deliberately ignored him. It was a wordless show of contempt, and the snub instantly infuriated him.
“What do you know?” Zhang Yaoyang yelled. “What can I do? He is the young master of the company. What can a mid-level employee like me do? She’s just joining him for a drink, how bad could it be?”
“You’re not a man!” Lu Xuan shot him a sidelong look as he remarked. Then he came to the entrance of private room number one.
The burly strongman built like an iron tower looked at Lu Xuan, flashing him a contemptuous smile. Another one had come to die.
Faster than anyone could process, a huge hand the size of a baton swung down towards Lu Xuan.
However, Lu Xuan was even faster and sent a leg smashing into his body. Before his blow could even reach Lu Xuan, he was sent flying by the kick.
His huge body tumbled across the floor as he moaned in pain. The strongman was st.u.r.dily built and had learned how to fight, but to Lu Xuan, he was too weak to withstand even a single hit.
His other cla.s.smates were dumbfounded, and the male cla.s.smates on the floor who had been beaten were utterly stupefied.
Even if they had imbibed some alcohol, they were not completely drunk yet. The whole group of them had been single-handedly beaten by that man just moments ago.
Yet now, he could not even withstand a single kick from Lu Xuan. Could they really be drunk?
Could the guy not even beat a pretty boy like him?
There was the sound of merrymaking from inside the private room, but as Lu Xuan opened the door to the room, all the chatter from inside ceased.
Lu Xuan scanned the room and saw that two men were surrounded by a group of men and women. Obviously, these two men were running this dinner.
The two looked to be in their twenties and were dressed elegantly, a clear sign that they were people with powerful backgrounds.
Lu Xuan also saw Ren Bingbing squeezed into a corner. She was thoroughly drenched, covered in alcohol. Evidently, before Lu Xuan came in, she was the victim of their entertainment.
“Lu Xuan!”
Seeing Lu Xuan, Ren Bingbing suddenly reacted as though she had found her savior, rushing over to hide behind Lu Xuan like a timid, frightened fawn.
“It’s very lively here. Throwing a party, eh!”
Lu Xuan pulled over a chair and sat down nonchalantly.
When they saw Lu Xuan, one of the men instantly looked like he had seen a ghost.
“Lu… Lu… Lu, Mister Lu!” The man in his twenties was tongue-tied when he saw Lu Xuan.
It was a shocking sight for the other people in the room. This man was Young Master Chen. He was a great power in Xia City who everybody deferred to.
They had never seen Young Master Chen so afraid, looking like he had seen a ghost.
Probably even Young Master Chen’s own father could not scare him so much.
“You recognize me?” Lu Xuan asked lightly.
“My name is Chen Nian. Previously, in Fu City, I was witness to Mister Lu’s graceful display!” The Young Master Chen bit the bullet and introduced himself. He was one of the Chen family’s representatives at the last fighting compet.i.tion, so because of this, he knew full well how scary Lu Xuan was.
The Chen family’s Chen Jiashang, who was one of the strongest in the mainland, could not withstand a few moves from this man and had been dispatched with ease.
It was as though he had single-handedly snuffed out the Chen family’s ambitious rise to power, and it left an indelible impression on his heart.
Still, the information he read clearly said that Lu Xuan should be in Fu City, so he did not expect him to be all the way here in Xia City.
“Since you already know who I am, that makes things a lot simpler. You’ve abducted my cla.s.smate and had your fun at her expense. How do you intent to atone?” Lu Xuan’s face bore a chilly sneer, as he looked at Chen Nian.
Chen Nian was completely dismayed. How could he have known that the girlfriend of one of his random subordinates was actually somehow related to Lu Xuan?
Zhang Yaoyang was not one of his men but worked under his older brother. In the company, Zhang Yaoyang had helped his older brother at his expense, so when he coincidentally b.u.mped into Zhang Yaoyang here, he thought he could humiliate the man as a display of power.
n.o.body would have thought that this regular looking woman would have such powerful connections.
Chen Nian’s face turned green and pale. Just as the people in the private room thought Chen Nian would act out, he simply got to his knees in front of Ren Bingbing, who was behind Lu Xuan, and knelt down in apology.
“I was indiscriminate in my actions. Would this lady please forgive me?!” As Chen Nian said this, his voice quivered. He thought back to the day they left, when the group he was in was warned by the clan leader to avoid provoking a martial arts legend at all costs.
Otherwise, even if Lu Xuan killed him, the Chen family would not dare look for a martial arts legend to seek revenge. The thought would never even cross their minds.
A single martial arts legend could easily wipe the entire Chen family from the face of the earth.
That Chen Jiashang had already utterly defeated the Chen family and forced them to submit to him.
How much more could Lu Xuan, who was probably ten times more fearsome than Chen Jiashang, do.
Ren Bingbing was completely stunned by this turn of events. She did not know the history between the two men, turning to look at Lu Xuan then back at Chen Nian in confusion, at a momentary loss.
She did not know what to do!
The rest of their cla.s.smates who had streamed in behind him also looked on in a daze. There were some who were especially astonished when they recognized who Chen Nian was.
