The younger brother replied in a trembling voice, "Young Master Gao tried to flirt with the Shu sisters, which angered Chen Yun, a friend of the Shu sisters. Not only was he beaten up by Chen Yun, but he was also forced to kneel down and apologize in public before he was able to escape!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yaohua was so enraged that he grabbed his underling by the collar and roared, "How dare some nobody I've never even heard of humiliate my son like this?"

The underling wiped the spittle from his face and said weakly, "Chen Yun has Tang Shirong backing him up, otherwise how would this kid dare to mess with Young Master Gao?"

So it turns out they had Tang Shirong backing them up!

Gao Yaohua released his henchman and sneered, "That's not surprising!"

The younger brother asked cautiously, "Boss, what should we do now?"

Gao Yaohua narrowed his eyes, his face full of murderous intent: "The Tang family has been acting a bit too aggressively lately. I heard they wiped out the Black Tiger Gang yesterday. But if they mess with me, they're asking for death."

At this point, he ordered, "Prepare the car. Let's deal with Chen Yun first, and then settle accounts with the Tang family later!"

The underling replied, "Yes, boss!"

...

At the entrance of Luming Hotel.

Chen Yun and the Shu sisters had just stepped out of the restaurant when Tang Mingxuan followed them out.

"Lingyue!"

He called out to Shu Lingyue, and then quickly greeted Chen Yun and Shu Tangyin beside him: "Hello, Mr. Chen and Ms. Shu!"

This respectful attitude is completely different from the one we had at the teahouse last time!

When Chen Yun saw the boy's uneasy demeanor in front of him, he knew that Tang Shirong must have revealed something about his identity, otherwise the boy wouldn't be so apprehensive.

He said coldly, "Do you have something to say?"

Upon hearing this, Shu Lingyue, who was standing to the side, was the first to object.

Shu Lingyue said unhappily, "Chen Yun, what kind of attitude is this?"

"Let's not even talk about how Young Master Tang helped us deal with the Black Tiger Gang last night and saved our lives; let's not even talk about how Young Master Tang helped us get our money back at the Li Group; just talk about what happened at the restaurant just now. If it weren't for Young Master Tang and the others' help, would you even be able to walk out of this door today?"

At this point, she shouted harshly, "If you had any conscience at all, you should be more polite to Young Master Tang, and even thank him for his kindness!"

Chen Yun smiled enigmatically: "Oh? Isn't all of this what Old Tang did? If I'm going to thank someone, it's Old Tang. What does it have to do with him?"

Shu Lingyue's eyes widened: "Shut up! If it weren't for Young Master Tang's intervention, would Boss Tang have come to help us time and time again? Who do you think you are?"

Shu Tangyin quickly said, "Sister, don't be angry. The Tang family has indeed helped us a lot recently. Let me thank Young Master Tang on behalf of Chen Yun..."

Shu Lingyue was unaware of Chen Yun's identity, but Tang Mingxuan already knew it, and his uncle had sternly demanded that he not offend Chen Yun again, or else he would skin him alive.

When he saw Shu Tangyin thanking him on behalf of Chen Yun, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "No need, no need. Actually, Mr. Chen is right. This is all thanks to my uncle. It has nothing to do with me. You really don't need to thank me..."

Chen Yun glanced at Shu Lingyue: "Did you hear that?"

Shu Lingyue said angrily, "Young Master Tang is just doing a good deed without asking for anything in return. He's just being modest. You actually took it seriously?"

Chen Yun picked at his ear and said casually, "Whatever you think it is! Tang Yin, let's go!"

After saying that, he pulled Shu Tangyin away.

Shu Lingyue and Tang Mingxuan were left standing at the restaurant entrance.

Shu Lingyue was furious and said angrily, "You ungrateful wretch!"

Chen Yun's voice came from afar: "I heard it!"

Shu Lingyue clenched her fist!

At this moment, Tang Mingxuan received a phone call and then said to Shu Lingyue, "Lingyue, my uncle is having dinner with some shareholders of Li's Company to discuss acquiring their shares. I have to go in and help with the socializing."

Shu Lingyue nodded: "Then you can get back to work!"

Tang Mingxuan smiled and said, "Okay, let's see when we have time. I'll treat you to a movie then."

Shu Lingyue hesitated for a moment, then politely declined, saying, "Let's talk about it later!"

Although she was very grateful for the Tang family's recent help, she still felt that she and Tang Mingxuan were not suitable for each other.

Tang Mingxuan was a little disappointed, but he didn't insist and turned to go into the restaurant.

Shu Lingyue got into her BMW, started the car, and slowly drove away.

The car had just driven out of the parking lot.

A convoy of cars came from ahead and blocked her way.

Apart from the first vehicle being a Land Rover Range Rover, the dozen or so vehicles following in this convoy were all Toyota Hiace minivans!

"Beep beep!"

Shu Lingyue, whose path was blocked, honked her horn in annoyance.

But the next second...

A fierce-looking, Mediterranean-looking middle-aged man got out of a Land Rover.

The doors of the Toyota Hiace van behind them opened simultaneously, and a large number of thugs carrying machetes, more than a hundred in total, jumped out!

Shu Lingyue was dumbfounded; it was the first time she had ever seen a minivan that could hold so many people!

At that moment, the Mediterranean man knocked on her car window.

Left with no other choice, she could only roll down the car window slightly, and through the fist-sized gap, she asked warily, "What is it?"

The Mediterranean man asked, "Miss Shu?"

Shu Lingyue was taken aback: "Who are you?"

The Mediterranean man grinned, revealing a set of gleaming gold teeth: "My name is Gao Yaohua, and people in the underworld call me the King of Loan Sharks!"

King of Loan Sharks!

Shu Lingyue's expression changed drastically.

Gao Yaohua leaned against the car window, like a vicious bear trying to break into the car, and said with a forced smile, "Hehe, Miss Shu probably knows why I'm here, right?"

Shu Lingyue feigned composure: "Boss Gao, I don't know you, and I have no idea why you stopped my car?"

Gao Yaohua glanced at Shu Lingyue and got straight to the point: "My son tried to chat you up, and Chen Yun beat him up and humiliated him in public. So why would I come looking for you?"

As he spoke, he glanced carefully inside the car, only to be surprised to find that Chen Yun was nowhere to be seen.

He glared at Shu Lingyue: "Where's Chen Yun?"

Shu Lingyue hurriedly said, "He's already gone. I don't know him well, and I don't know where he went. You should go find him yourselves, don't come looking for me!"

"Not familiar? If we weren't familiar, would he hit my son for you?" Gao Yaohua sneered, not believing Shu Lingyue's words at all.

He tapped on the car window and ordered, "Turn off the engine, open the door, and let's talk this over!"

Shu Lingyue glanced at Gao Yaohua, whose face was full of scars, and then at the thugs around her who were tattooed with dragons and tigers and carrying machetes.

She's not stupid. If she opened the door and got out of the car now, wouldn't that be like sending a lamb to the slaughter?

"Shut up, I don't know you, there's nothing to talk about, all of you get out of my way!"

Unable to bear it any longer, she cursed Gao Yaohua mercilessly, then ordered Gao Yaohua and the others to get out of the way while she turned the steering wheel and floored the accelerator, preparing to break through the encirclement.

The BMW was like a wild horse, charging recklessly.

The thugs were so frightened that they scattered and ran away.

Gao Yaohua cursed angrily, "You bitch, if you dare to run away, I will definitely..."

Before he could finish his threat, the BMW's wheels crushed his left instep.

"ah!"

Gao Yaohua clutched his left foot, screaming and jumping around in agony.

Shu Lingyue drove her BMW, bumping and hitting many cars before finally managing to break free and then driving away...

Gao Yaohua took off his left leather shoe and found that the instep of his foot was swollen like a pig's trotter. He was so angry that he trembled all over and roared, "Get in the car and chase after her! Don't worry about anything else, kill this woman first!"

The underlings quickly replied, "Yes, boss."
