"Ugh, I have such a short temper." Upon hearing this, Liu Lao Er's anger flared up even more. "You want a beating, don't you?"
"Go ahead and hit me, do you dare? Don't you even take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? You cowardly idiot, get out of here!" The waiter picked up a broom from the corner of the door and chased people out.
Liu Lao Er could no longer contain his anger and raised his fist to strike.
Mu Run quickly pulled Liu Lao Er back, "No, no, why are you arguing with a dog?"
When the waiter heard Mu Run call him a dog, he smacked her on the head and body with a broom, pricking her earlobe and drawing blood from the bristles. "Who are you calling a dog? Who are you calling a dog? I think you're the ugly freak! Ugly people always cause trouble! You slut!"
He might be able to tolerate being beaten and scolded by Liu Lao Er. But when it came to beating and scolding Mu Run, Liu Lao Er couldn't take it anymore and kicked his employee in the chest with a piercing kick, yelling, "You dare to touch and insult my sister-in-law? You're asking for death!"
It has to be said that the menacing aura of bandits is truly unmatched by ordinary people, especially since Old Liu has a history of murder. Some people originally wanted to step in and mediate, but seeing Old Liu's imposing presence, they wisely withdrew to protect themselves.
The waiter was kicked by Liu Lao Er and almost couldn't catch his breath. He screamed in pain, "Murder! Murder! Call the police!"
Mu Run was also anxious. They were bandits, and if they were caught on government territory, they would have no chance of survival.
"Run!" Mu Run said to Liu Lao Er.
Liu Lao Er agreed, pushed through the crowd of onlookers, and was about to leave.
Unfortunately, by sheer coincidence, a patrol of city guards happened to be passing by. Upon hearing that a murder had occurred, they rushed over without a word.
Mu Run and Liu Lao Er were surrounded by the city patrol guards.
If it were a direct confrontation, Liu Lao Er could easily escape with his skills, but it would be difficult with Mu Run in tow.
Mu Run knew this too, so he forced himself to calm down and said to the patrolling guards surrounding them, "Gentlemen, this misunderstanding is just a small one. Let's talk it out."
"Pfft~" Just then, the guy suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Mu Run: "..." I hope I don't get kicked to death!
Liu Lao Er suddenly remembered Fu Yunchen's instructions to keep a low profile, and now he was in deep trouble.
The manager of Jin Gui Lou rushed over upon hearing the news. When he saw his employee beaten and vomiting blood, his life hanging in the balance, his face turned green. Pointing at Mu Run and Liu Lao Er, he slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "You, you, alas! Do you know that this employee of mine is the brother-in-law of the Prefect of the Capital! You're in big trouble!"
"The brother-in-law of the Prefect of the Capital?" Mu Run exclaimed in surprise.
Cold sweat broke out on Liu Lao Er's forehead...
"No matter what, let's get a doctor to check on him first," Mu Run said to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper immediately sent someone to find a doctor.
Mu Run turned his head and saw Liu Lao Er's terrified look. He thought Liu was afraid of seeing the officials, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here for you."
It's all because of you! If the eldest brother knew that his sister-in-law was beaten and taken to the authorities, he probably wouldn't be able to live a good life.
"This is troublesome," Liu Lao Er said with a mournful face.
Mu Run said, "So what if he's the brother-in-law of the Prefect of the Capital? Even if the Crown Prince breaks the law, he'll be punished the same as the common people. We haven't done anything wrong."
"..." Liu Lao Er was speechless; his sister-in-law was thinking too simply.
"Whether it's right or wrong, the adults will be the judge. Come with us." The patrol guard said coldly.
Mu Run and Liu Lao Er were taken to the Jingzhao Prefecture government office.
