The thug spat and said, "Bringing such a powerful old man as a bodyguard when you go out? Are you here for tourism? This guy is clearly here to cause trouble! Did this old man graduate from a martial arts school when he was young?"
"Don't make fun of me. I also graduated from a martial arts school. I can't beat this old man." The burly man next to him chimed in, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Jiang Fu.
"You guys still have time to chat? You seem quite relaxed?"
After dealing with the thugs around him, Jiang Fu set his sights on this group of people.
Jiang Fu walked over, his steady footsteps echoing through the alley, as if stepping on the hearts of these thugs.
It was heavy, with a suffocating sense of oppression.
Jiang Fu had a smile on his face, and he looked like a thin old man.
Only by truly facing Jiang Fu can one know just how terrifying the oppressive feeling he evokes is.
The burly man who had spoken earlier was now trembling all over, and he didn't even have the courage to turn around and run away.
"Relax, it won't hurt, it'll be over in a minute."
Jiang Fu walked up to the burly man, his old face beaming with a smile. He then bent down and picked up a brick. The burly man, who had witnessed everything, swallowed hard, wanting to beg for mercy, but he only managed to utter a single word: "Spare me..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Fu raised the brick and slammed it down, smashing it hard on the burly man's head.
"Sizzle—"
A spurt of blood shot out from the burly man's head, and blood gushed out uncontrollably.
The burly man groaned, took two steps back, collapsed to the ground, and immediately lost consciousness.
Jiang Fu didn't even turn his head, and walked up to the next thug.
He felt no pity. After the red-haired leader said those words, not one of the people in the group refuted him.
Therefore, Jiang Fu had already mentally sentenced these people to death.
In Jiang Fu's heart, the young lady's safety was more important than a thousand pieces of gold.
This group of people dared to utter those foul words in front of the young lady, and they actually dared to put them into action.
Jiang Fu was already furious.
How could they possibly hold back?
The group of thugs were instantly filled with rage, but they had no will to resist.
Even if these thugs wanted to resist, how could an angry master of the late stage of internal energy possibly succeed?
They're not Saiyans; they can't become Super Saiyans just because they're angry.
They were just a bunch of thugs; even in their extreme anger, they could only be angry for a whole day.
There's nothing else we can do.
[...]
Near Qianda Shopping Plaza, in an alley.
"That's how it happened. It's all thanks to Miss's quick thinking that she found this group of people, otherwise... although this group of people can't amount to much, they're still a problem after all."
Jiang Fu stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Uncle Fu is right. We owe you a huge debt of gratitude this time. The Luo family... owes you a favor!"
Luo Chen clasped his hands in a fist salute, his attitude serious.
No one knows exactly how important the people around them are to them.
Luo Chen felt deeply indebted to Jiang Shiyu for her kindness this time.
"If the Jiang family is in trouble, please rest assured that the Luo family will definitely do its utmost to help!"
Luo Chen let out a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke solemnly.
He had read the original novel, so he naturally knew what the Jiang family's final fate was.
But things are different now.
To repay Jiang Shiyu's favor, Luo Chen has made up his mind that even if he has to completely clash with the protagonist Ye Feng in the future, he will protect the Jiang family.
Having received such a great favor, if he were to feign death at this crucial moment, not to mention others, even Luo Chen himself would slap himself to death.
"With your words of comfort, young friend Luo, I am relieved."
Jiang Fu chuckled. At his age, reading people's expressions was a basic skill, so he could naturally tell how firm Luo Chen's attitude was.
What Jiang Fu wanted was Luo Chen's attitude.
Nowadays, Jiang Shiyu is attacked every now and then. Although Jiang Fu doesn't care about the Jiang family's affairs, he can guess a little bit about it.
Who else in the Jiang family, besides Jiang Zetian, the acting head of the family, could be so intolerant of Jiang Shiyu?
But Jiang Fu was just an elder after all, and he didn't have the power to shake the Jiang family patriarch, not even his father.
Therefore, Jiang Fu was genuinely happy to see that the eldest son of the Luo family, who was no less powerful than the Jiang family, was willing to make such a promise.
"And you, Miss Luo, thank you so much this time."
Luo Chen turned to look at Jiang Shiyu, smiled as a greeting, and then spoke solemnly.
[I never expected this girl, despite being the female lead, to go to such lengths to help me. It seems... the encounter in the dream world played a role? I just wonder... is the Jiang Shiyu in my dream the same Jiang Shiyu from the real world, or... just a dream?]
Jiang Shiyu was about to reply when she suddenly paused.
This time, she was absolutely certain that the sudden voice was Luo Chen's innermost thought.
Jiang Shiyu's eyebrows furrowed slightly. Ever since she heard Luo Chen's thoughts last time, she had had a premonition.
It seems... the world I'm in isn't the real world?
Judging from Luo Chen's words, she is the female lead... and that person named Ye Feng is the male lead?
So, is the world we live in now the world of TV dramas, the world of movies, or... the world of novels?
Jiang Shiyu had no answer in her heart.
"Luo Chen, there's no need for formalities between us."
Jiang Shiyu shook her head, suppressing her thoughts, then stared intently at Luo Chen's face and slowly spoke.
These are Jiang Shiyu's true feelings.
She could make anyone owe her a favor, but she didn't want Luo Chen to owe her one.
Because... Jiang Shiyu felt that she could give Luo Chen everything she had, so there was no question of owing or owing anything.
"Ah...ah?"
Luo Chen's expression immediately turned strange.
[Strange, what's wrong with this girl? She's clearly the female lead, so why does it feel like she's flirting with me? Oh well, it must be my imagination. The three biggest illusions men have: no one's in the bushes, I can turn the tables, and she likes me! She definitely is now. I can't misunderstand, otherwise if Ye Feng finds out, he'll definitely target the Luo family again.]
Luo Chen shook his head, banishing the thoughts from his mind.
With Cao Wei's promise, the Luo family will not have any problems within a year.
But if he were to actually steal Ye Feng's girlfriend during this time, what would happen to Ye Feng...? He really couldn't say.
Jiang Shiyu was speechless.
She glared at Luo Chen several times with her beautiful eyes without any mercy, but still felt unsatisfied. She simply snorted and turned to the other side.
You idiot!
What are the three major misconceptions men have?
What you feel is all real!
Idiot, idiot, idiot!
Unfortunately, no matter how much Jiang Shiyu cursed Luo Chen in her heart, he couldn't hear her.
Luo Chen touched his nose and looked again at Cao Wei, who was sitting on the ground.
