I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Kid, you've got money to burn, why are you looking for death?"

Do you know who Lao Tzu is?

Meng Haochen's face was as cold as ice, his eyes flashing with a fierce light. "Drag this arrogant brat out and throw him far away!"

"Gentlemen, please don't make a move!" Meng Haochen's bodyguard was about to take action when he was stopped by a waiter.

The waitress was neither servile nor overbearing. "Sir, if you wish to dine, please move to a seat and do not disturb other diners."

"If they don't listen to my advice and cause trouble at Tianxianglou, I'll have no choice but to call the police."

"Call the police?" Meng Haochen seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, his smile gradually turning into a grotesque expression. "What kind of day is this? How dare any Tom, Dick, or Harry provoke me?"

"Snap—"

He raised his hand and slapped her across the face. "Get out of here, this is none of your business!"

"How could you hit someone?!" The waiter covered his cheek, feeling wronged and angry.

"So what if I hit you?" Meng Haochen said nonchalantly. "I'll cover your medical expenses, ten thousand or twenty thousand?"

"Do you earn 10,000 a month?"

"Just enjoy the money and mind your own business!"

He then turned to Tang Yirou, "Beautiful lady, don't hesitate any longer. Following me is definitely a thousand times, ten thousand times better than following this kid!"

"I'll provide all your designer bags, cosmetics, jewelry, luxury cars, and mansions from now on. Wouldn't it be great to live the high life?"

"Are you crazy?" Tang Yirou took out her phone. "If you don't leave, I'm really calling the police!"

When Meng Haochen and his bodyguards heard Tang Yirou say she was going to call the police, they were not afraid at all; instead, they laughed unrestrainedly.

One of the bodyguards taunted, "Beautiful lady, I advise you to obediently submit to our Young Master Chen!"

"Calling the police won't do any good. Do you even know who Young Master Chen is?"

"The Meng family of Donghai has connections everywhere; the police wouldn't dare to take in our Young Master Chen."

"Even if our Young Master Chen hasn't done anything yet, even if he beat someone to death or maim them, the moment he goes in, the police will have to respectfully send him back to the Meng family!"

"We've seen plenty of women more fiery than you, and in the end, they all submitted to our Young Master Chen, hahaha!"

Tang Yirou's face was pale, and she suppressed her anger, looking at Qin Ge with pleading eyes, "Qin...Qin Ge, shall we go?"

Regardless of whether the bodyguard exaggerated or not, Meng Haochen was a young master she couldn't afford to offend, so she could only swallow her grievances.

"Want to leave? Did I give you permission?"

Meng Haochen chuckled. He liked Tang Yirou's pitiful expression more and more, and couldn't help but reach out to touch her.

"Snap—"

Qin Ge raised her hand and slapped Meng Haochen, causing him to stagger back a few steps. Then she comforted Tang Yirou, saying, "It's okay, finish eating before you leave."

"The East China Sea should still have laws, right?"

"You...you dare hit me?" Meng Haochen was stunned by the slap, his eyes filled with ferocity and disbelief, and his bodyguards were also stunned.

"So what if I hit you?" Qin Ge said casually. "I'll cover your medical expenses, ten thousand or twenty thousand?"

He returned Meng Haochen's words verbatim, and the waitress who had been slapped heard this and her eyes lit up.

Tang Yirou's heart was in her throat; this was troublesome.

"What happened? What's going on?"

The manager of Tianxianglou arrived in a hurry with several people.

It was lunchtime, and all the staff at Tianxianglou were busy. When they first saw the disturbance, the manager asked the waitress to come and resolve it.

To everyone's surprise, the situation not only didn't improve, but it also escalated, attracting a large crowd. Only then did the manager quickly call over a few people.

"You've got guts, kid!"

"What are you all standing there for? Get him! Beat him to death!"

"Your Tianxiang Restaurant should mind your own business. I'll pay for anything you break!"

Meng Haochen was furious and completely disregarded the manager and others at Tianxianglou.

Without the slightest hesitation, the four bodyguards in black immediately took action; they were all too familiar with this kind of scene!

The four men unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks at Qin Ge, their movements swift and efficient. The manager and others from Tianxiang Restaurant couldn't stop them in time.

What's this about compensation? Is this even a question of compensation?

If he can't even guarantee the safety of customers dining here, then he, as the manager, might as well not come to work tomorrow.

Just as the manager realized something was wrong, Qin Ge moved with the agility of a gust of wind, easily avoiding the bodyguards' attack.

He moved with lightning speed, delivering four precise slaps to the faces of the four bodyguards while simultaneously unleashing a flurry of kicks that left afterimages.

A series of crisp slaps rang out, and in the blink of an eye, all four black-clad bodyguards collapsed to the ground, clutching their abdomens and groaning in pain.

"And what about you!"

Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, Qin Ge grabbed Meng Haochen's hair from the back of his head and slammed it violently onto the table.

Just as Meng Haochen's head was about to touch the table, Qin Ge suddenly felt that it wasn't quite right.

They hadn't finished eating yet, and if they threw it, it would definitely splatter all over Tang Yirou.

In a flash, Qin Ge released his strength, pulled Meng Haochen's head forward, and thrust his right knee upward.

"boom--"

Meng Haochen was knocked backward by Qin Ge's knee, and then flew backward, his mouth full of blood.

Qin Ge walked slowly towards Meng Haochen. "I just don't understand. You're so rich, you could have any kind of woman you wanted, why do you have to resort to this method?"

"Do you think this is cool or domineering?"

"You're fucking brain-dead!"

When Meng Haochen saw Qin Ge approaching, he trembled in fright. Ignoring the pain in his body, he desperately crawled away from Qin Ge, crying, "You...you don't come any closer!"

He glanced at the bodyguards still groaning on the ground. "Stop playing dead, you bastards! Stop him!"

"If anything happens to me, your lives will be in danger!"

However, the bodyguards seemed not to hear, and continued to lie on the ground groaning, their voices even louder.

They're all terrified of Qin Ge. Even if they could get up, they wouldn't want to. They only make ten thousand yuan a month, why risk their lives?

Qin Ge smiled mockingly, stepped on Meng Haochen's face, and with a slight force, a soft "crack" sounded as the bridge of his nose shattered.

"Ah—!" Meng Haochen screamed in agony as blood gushed from his mouth and nose.

"Stop!" The manager of Tianxiang Restaurant reacted and mustered his courage to step forward to stop them. "Sir, that's enough. If someone dies, things will get very complicated."

His tone was pleading, "It's my fault for mismanagement, which affected your dining experience, sir. I'll give you a free meal today!"

Qin Ge kicked Meng Haochen away, her gaze fixed intently on the manager. "Are you the person in charge of Tianxiang Restaurant?"

"They've been making a scene for so long, why are you only showing up now?"

"He harassed my girlfriend, hit one of your waiters, and even had his bodyguards attack me. Didn't you see any of that?"

"You only speak up now that you see this piece of trash getting the short end of the stick? You weren't doing this on purpose, were you?"

"This..." The manager was speechless. He hadn't deliberately ignored it, but the facts did indeed seem to be as Qin Ge had said.

"Kid! You've fucking messed up!" While Qin Ge was talking to the manager, Meng Haochen, supported by his bodyguards, had already stood up. "You haven't even looked into what kind of power the Meng family of Donghai is!"

"Even if I cripple you and sleep with your woman today, no matter how much trouble you cause, I'll just pay you some money and that'll be the end of it!"

"But you've beaten me up like this, even if your parents, your grandparents, your whole family kneel down and beg me, it won't save your life!"

"You might not dare kill me, but I have a hundred, a thousand ways to kill you!"

"This is the difference between us. You're dead!"

"Who dares to threaten to take my brother Qin's life?" A hoarse yet authoritative voice rang out, causing a commotion at the doorway.

The diners who had paused their meals to watch the commotion all looked towards the entrance, and then began to whisper among themselves.

Tang Yirou bit her lip, her gaze fixed on Qin Ge, feeling nervous and annoyed, her mind a complete mess.

She hadn't even repaid the life-saving grace from last time, and now she had gotten into trouble with Meng Haochen, a troublesome person, because of her. What would she do if something happened to him?
