While Xiao Jiang was speaking, Zhou Xi had already walked up to Xiao Jiang. It wasn't something Zhou Xi did, but his fingers brushed across Xiao Jiang's wrist. Xiao Jiang felt a tingling sensation in his entire arm, and he couldn't help but let go of Zhao Yunxiang's wrist.
"Ouch!" Xiao Jiang cried out in pain, holding his wrist.
"Look at you, young man, with so many eyes watching you! I didn't touch you just now, why are you crying out in pain?" Zhou Xi laughed at Xiao Jiang coldly.
"Yes, yes! I've been staring at him, and the old man didn't do anything at all. What's wrong with this young man? Is he trying to blackmail him?" said a middle-aged man.
"I saw it with my own eyes. The elder brother certainly didn't touch him, so why did he cry out in pain? Was this the way this young sister-in-law was wrongly accused by them just now?" The old lady just now spoke again.
······
For a moment, the onlookers were talking about it, all blaming the young man.
Scarface, who had been lying on the ground pretending to have a broken bone, could no longer lie down. Scarface, lying on the ground, could see everything clearly from below. Zhou Xi had just stretched out his little finger and had already made Xiao Jiang cry for his parents. Could it be that this old man was actually a martial arts master? When Scarface was in prison, he had seen an old man who was just like Zhou Xi, who could make a group of young men cry for their parents with just one finger.
Thinking of this, Scarface scrambled to his feet, took a few steps forward, and faced Zhou Xi, extending his hands in a fist-clasped salute. He then asked, "My name is Scarface from Qingshan City. I'm currently covering this area of Jiefang Street. May I know your name, hero? Are you a permanent resident or just passing through?"
"Oh my! Aren't this guy's legs very strong? He just said that he broke his legs after being pushed by this sister-in-law. It turns out he was trying to blackmail people?" The old lady who had spoken several times didn't know if she was born with a defective brain. When she saw "Scarface" able to stand up and walk, she couldn't help but exclaimed.
An elderly man standing next to the old woman, sweat beads forming on his forehead after hearing Scarface's words. He tugged at the woman's clothes, signaling her to leave quickly. The man and the woman had worked at the same company before retirement, so they were quite close.
"Old Li, what's wrong?" The old lady stepped out of the crowd and asked.
"Big sister," Scarface said, "haven't you heard of him? He's the leader of the gangs in the Jiefang Street area. If you offend him, be careful that someone will throw feces at your house in the middle of the night." After the old man finished speaking, he looked around and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he quickly left the scene.
The old lady was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly ran away. If it weren't for Lao Li's reminder, the old lady really wouldn't have matched the scarred face in front of her with the legendary "scarred face". She was so upset that she couldn't control her mouth all day long. She must not cause trouble for the younger generation in the family.
Some people around had the same idea as the old man. After "Scarface" announced his name, they didn't even bother to watch the excitement and left in the blink of an eye.
Scarface and Xiao Jiang showed smug looks on their faces when they saw people's reactions.
Zhou Xi ignored the changes around him and stared at Scarface and said, "Young man, those who do evil will eventually perish. The sea of suffering is endless. It is time to turn back!"
"What a weird thing! Does our Scar Brother need you to teach him a lesson for what he did?" Xiao Jiang felt that Zhou Xi's words had offended the dignity of "Scarface" and quickly jumped out to scold him.
Zhou Xi looked at Xiao Jiang with disdain, ignoring his outrageous words. Secretly, he bent his index finger and flicked a wisp of wind at the bend of Scarface's knee. Since he likes to pretend to have a broken leg so much, he will be able to actually have one soon. As for Xiao Jiang, Zhou Xi's gentle touch just now has already taught him a lesson. An hour later, the hand that Xiao Jiang used to hold Zhao Yunxiang will be swollen and there will be a needle-like pain. Even if Xiao Jiang goes to the hospital for a checkup, there is no guarantee that they will find out what is wrong. However, Zhou Xi did not make Xiao Jiang a cripple. After the pain in Xiao Jiang's hand lasts for ten days or half a month, it will naturally return to normal.
After Zhou Xi secretly dealt with the two bad guys, he walked up to Zhao Yunxiang and asked, "Sister-in-law, where do you live? I'll take you home."
"No! No need. I'm going to wait here for my husband and brother. They will be back soon." Zhao Yunxiang shook her head and took Zhou Jiasheng's hand and took a step back.
Although Zhou Xi didn't look like a bad guy, Zhao Yunxiang didn't dare trust anyone after what she had just experienced with Scarface and Xiao Jiang. There were so many people in front of the First Department Store that even if the bad guys wanted to do something, they would be hesitant. If she rashly followed them, who knew where they would take her?
Zhou Xi looked at Zhou Jiasheng beside Zhao Yunxiang, and the more he looked, the more familiar he felt. Zhou Jiasheng looked 60% like Zhou Zhixin, and the remaining few parts like Zhao Yunxiang. In Zhou Xi's eyes, he felt an indescribable closeness.
"Little boy, are you out shopping with your mother?" Zhou Xi touched his pockets and felt a little disappointed when he didn't feel any candy or anything like that. Seeing Zhou Jiasheng staring at him with wide eyes, Zhou Xi felt warm in his heart.
"And dad and uncle." Zhou Jiasheng couldn't help but answer when he saw Zhou Xi's eyes were full of kindness.
"Old man, don't be so shameless. What right do you have to interfere with the person we like?" Xiao Jiang was so angry that his eyes turned red when he saw that Zhou Xi ignored him and wanted to escort Zhao Yunxiang away. In this street, the name of "Scar Brother" has always been well-known. This old man doesn't even take Scar Brother seriously. It seems that he needs to show him some power and let him know that the Horse King has three eyes.
"Ouch!" As Xiao Jiang finished speaking, Scarface felt a slight "crack" sound at the bend of his left leg, followed by a sharp pain.
"My legs! My legs!" Scarface was shocked and in pain, and couldn't help but wail.
"Scar Brother, Scar Brother, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Jiang saw beads of sweat appearing on Scarface's face due to the pain, and he couldn't help but panic.
"Idiot! Call an ambulance immediately!" Scarface slapped Xiao Jiang in anger.
"Oh, oh, Scar Brother, wait a minute, I'll be there right away." After being slapped, Xiao Jiang ran away happily, covering half of his face.
When Zhou Jiasheng saw this scene, suspicion flashed across his little face.
Why did this bad guy who bullied his mother and him suddenly become like this? Was the old man teaching him a lesson?
Zhou Jiasheng's gaze moved from Scarface to Zhou Xi's face. Zhou Xi blinked at Zhou Jiasheng and gave him a mischievous smile.
It seems that it was really the old man who avenged them! Zhou Jiasheng raised a small hand to cover his mouth, signaling Zhou Xi that he would not speak nonsense.
Looking at the clever and lively Zhou Jiasheng, Zhou Xi felt his heart softened.
