"Take the alley? This road is quite short."
"But there are no streetlights, it's a bit dark. Should we take the main road instead?" Yiwen was a little worried.
Luo Ziqing looked up at the dark alley and shook her head: "What are you afraid of? I'm here. This road is short, so Yaoyao can get back sooner. It's too cold outside, so don't stay out in the cold for too long."
"That's true. By the way, Yaoyao, you just started studying humanities today. How are you doing in class? I can help you catch up on last semester's lessons during break tomorrow."
Tong Su smiled and said, "It's all fine, I can keep up, don't worry."
"Wow, school's finally over! Let's not talk about studying anymore, okay?"
"Hahaha……"
The three chatted and laughed as they walked into the alley.
In the alley, several young men with dyed hair and wearing cropped pants were either leaning against the wall or squatting on the ground, smoking and chatting: "This is really damn bad, our boss's bar has been shut down!"
"I heard they reported us for doing business with minors, which caused us to lose our base of operations—if I find out who reported us, I'm going to beat them to a pulp!"
It was getting late, and the alley was deserted. No one was going in. A young man brushed aside his bowl-cut bangs, threw a half-smoked cigarette butt on the ground, stomped on it a few times, and sneered.
“Go ahead and hit him. I can tell you right now who reported him—Nan Yun Shen, the eldest son of the Nan family! Have you heard of him? The Nan family’s Nan Yun Shen who drove his rival to suicide! Go and beat him up.”
The young man, caught off guard, stammered, "Nan Yun Shen? No—why would he report a small bar? What's wrong with the bar?"
His tone suddenly became timid, and he didn't mention at all, "go get a full beating."
"What else could it be! Tell me, which bar was doing business with minors recently? It was Nan Yao!"
"Nanyao?"
"It's all that little bitch's fault! She got into trouble because she was drinking, but Nan Yun Shen blamed the bar and had it shut down!"
The young man's face twisted in disbelief: "What a spoiled brat! So arrogant! With power and influence, he can just appoint officials whenever he wants. He has the ability. Tsk, since he's so heartless, then don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll make him taste the bitterness of regret..."
"Stop bragging. You think you can mess with Nan Yun Shen? Make him regret it? What can you do? Try to stage an accident in front of his company and make him run you over!"
"Bullshit! What do you know? Why would Nan Yun Shen bother with a small bar? Isn't it because Nan Yao is drinking there? If we can't beat him up, why don't we just go and give Nan Yao a good beating!"
"Yeah, isn't Nan Weixia, the girl Brother Long likes, always being bullied by Nan Yao? We're helping our future sister-in-law get revenge!"
Some people were afraid and shook their heads, saying, "What if we beat up Nan Yao again, and Nan Yun Shen comes after us?"
"He doesn't know! Didn't Nan Weixia say she could tip us off? Find a place without surveillance cameras, put a sack over her back, and beat her up badly. Who would know who did it?"
"That's great—count me in!"
"Haha, count me in too."
Everyone burst into laughter. The young man who had spoken took out a cigarette from his pocket and was about to light it when one of his underlings, who had been sent to keep watch at the alley entrance, suddenly ran back, excitedly exclaiming, "We've got some fat sheep! Three girls, and they all look like they're from wealthy families!"
He was a recent addition to the gang. He had originally committed robbery in a neighboring province and fled here before the Lunar New Year to avoid being arrested. Later, he joined this gang of thugs.
