Returning to my senior year of high school before college, I became addicted to dating.

The bald man's six or seven henchmen lined up behind him, looking like they were attending a funeral, each with a sour expression.

Lin Feng stood up. Huo Shanshan's hand, still gripping his sleeve, remained, and she shrank behind him.

"Who are you?" Lin Feng asked.

The bald man tilted his head and looked him up and down, as if he were an animal.

He smirked, revealing an expression that he thought was fierce but was actually incredibly irritating.

He pointed to the gold chain on his chest, then to the brothers behind him, and began to introduce himself.

"The guys in this gang call me Leopard. See these tattoos? The money in these tattoos could buy your life, you know? In Jiamusi, go ask around, who the hell doesn't know Brother Leopard?"

He paused, his gaze then falling on Huo Shanshan. "That woman from yesterday, I ordered her, and she ran away halfway through the meal. Damn it, I paid for her, and she gave me the cold shoulder?"

Huo Shanshan's face was as white as paper, her lips trembled twice, but she couldn't utter a word.

If this person hadn't touched her inappropriately and forced her to drink alcohol yesterday, she wouldn't have run away.

Because of this, Mommy fined her 100 yuan! She didn't earn a single penny yesterday, and even lost 100 yuan.

The leopard got more and more excited as it talked, its voice grew louder, and spittle flew far away:

"Those guys in this line of work, still pretending to be innocent with me. I touched you yesterday and you dodged away, keeping your distance like I have a contagious disease."

He sneered, turning his gaze to Lin Feng, "Today, you're taking the initiative to lean on this pretty boy's shoulder. You're just a shameless slut who judges by appearances."

"You got away fast yesterday, I didn't catch you. Today I'm going to take you down and teach you a lesson for your arrogance."

Tiger's hand, gripping the beer bottle, bulged with veins. He took a step forward, but Lin Feng stopped him with a hand.

Lin Feng looked at the leopard, his voice not loud, but everyone in the private room could hear him clearly:

"Did you just eat shit? Your breath stinks!"

The leopard paused for a moment, then laughed, its gold chains jingling loudly.

He turned around and looked at his underlings behind him, who also laughed in response.

"Holy crap, this little bastard." Leopard pointed at Lin Feng, his finger almost poking his nose.

"When I, Brother Leopard, was already out in the game, you were still crawling around in your dad's lap!"

One of his henchmen joined in the commotion:

"Brother Leopard, this kid's probably scared out of his wits by your tattoos, his legs went weak, right? Hahaha...!"

Another henchman chimed in, "You bet! Look at his face, it's as white as a ghost, like he's about to die of fright."

The leopard grinned smugly, becoming even more arrogant. It took a step forward, waving its finger in front of Lin Feng's face.

"I'm telling you, I'm taking this woman with me today. If you know what's good for you, get out of here. If you don't..."

He pointed to his full-body tattoos and said, "These tattoos of yours, Brother Leopard, didn't come for nothing."

Lin Feng laughed out loud: "Hehe... You're quite proud of the fact that you're covered in brake marks, like you've been run over by a truck."

Someone in the private room was trying not to laugh.

The leopard's expression changed.

"What did you say?"

Lin Feng spoke slowly and deliberately: "I'm telling you, you're covered in skid marks. All these years in Jiamusi? And this is how you've ended up? Have you wasted all these years?"

The leopard's face changed from black to red, then from red to purple, like a traffic light. The laughter behind him also stopped.

"You fucking want to die!" Leopard grabbed a beer bottle from the coffee table and raised it to smash it over Lin Feng's head.

Just then, the door was pushed open again.

Mommy swayed her hips as she rushed in, followed by two security guards, their hats askew, looking like they hadn't woken up yet.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, what are you doing!" Mommy rushed between Leopard and Lin Feng, pressing down on Leopard's hand holding the wine bottle with one hand and blocking Lin Feng with the other.

"Brother Leopard, calm down, calm down. We're all on the same side, let's talk this out, don't resort to violence."

The leopard was pinned down by her, the bottle held in mid-air, neither smashing it nor putting it down. He glared at Lin Feng, panting heavily.

"Sister Hong, don't get involved in this today. I have to take this woman with me today. She slapped me in the face yesterday, and she's avoiding me today. I, Leopard, have never been treated like this in Jiamusi."

With a smile on her face, Mommy pressed down on the leopard while glancing back at Lin Feng and giving him a meaningful look, meaning, "Say less."

Lin Feng ignored her glance and instead looked at her, asking, "Sister Hong, right?"

"Hey, little brother, what's up?"

"Is this how you provide service at your KTV?" Lin Feng pointed to the tattooed thugs at the door. "You just let a bunch of random guys covered in skid marks into someone else's private room?"

The leopard's face turned green, and he raised the bottle again: "You son of a bitch..."

"Brother Leopard! Brother Leopard! Brother Leopard!" Mommy quickly stopped him.

Two security guards also came over: "Brother Leopard, don't be impulsive, let's talk this out."

Tiger had already stood next to Raymond Lam, holding a microphone in his hand, his eyes fixed on Leopard.

The twenty brothers also gathered around, each with a bottle in hand, ready to start drinking at any moment.

Lin Feng waved his hand, signaling them not to move.

He wanted to see how his mother handled the situation. If she wasn't satisfied with how she handled it, then he shouldn't blame her for being unrighteous today.

Leopard was still cursing: "You lazy bum, you're not leaving Jiamusi today. Let me tell you, I, Leopard, am in charge in this area..."

"Alright," Lin Feng interrupted him, his tone flat. "Sister Hong, what are you planning to do?"

Mom wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked at the leopard, then at Lin Feng, and her smile was almost impossible to hold back.

She leaned close to Lin Feng, lowered her voice, and said in a volume only the two of them could hear:

"Brother, this leopard does have some influence in Jiamusi. Don't take it personally with a bunch of gangsters."

She paused, glanced at Huo Shanshan, then at Lin Feng's expression, and continued, "How about this, you just give this girl to him. Let's make a big problem a small one, and a small one a nothing."

She held up two fingers and gestured. "I'll find you two even better ones, free of charge. How about that?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Shanshan trembled and gripped Lin Feng's arm even tighter, wishing she could cling to him.

Lin Feng looked down at Huo Shanshan, then looked up at his mother, and smiled.

His smile was cold.

"Sister Hong, are you asking me to give him the person?"

Mommy smiled awkwardly: "Little brother, it's not about letting him have it, it's just..."

Lin Feng's voice wasn't loud, but every word was like shards of ice: "He came to my private room and tried to steal someone, and now you want me to give him the person? Is this KTV a rip-off place?"

Mommy's expression changed.

The leopard got even more excited after hearing Lin Feng's words.

He broke free from the security guard's grasp, pointed at Lin Feng, and spoke so loudly that the entire floor could hear him:

"Did you hear that? Sister Hong is on my side! What the hell are you pretending to be? You bunch of greenhorn cowards, you haven't even grown your hair yet and you're already trying to act like gangsters?"

He took a step forward, his gaze sweeping over the twenty men, a contemptuous smile playing on his lips:

"Look at you bunch of little bastards, each one as skinny as a monkey, your hands tremble when you hold a bottle. When I, Brother Leopard, was out in the game, you guys were still playing in the mud at home."

The leopard walked up to Huo Shanshan and reached out to grab her.

"Let's go outside and have a chat with Brother Leopard."

His hand had just reached out, and before it even touched Huo Shanshan's arm, he heard a "bang!"

The beer bottle exploded on the leopard's bald head.

Glass shards flew everywhere, and golden beer foam mixed with blood trickled down from his head.

The leopard's eyes widened, its mouth gaped open, and it froze on the spot, as if it had been struck by a pressure point.
