The sudden escalation reached a chilling climax as Yu Xi, in a brazen move, produced a gun and fired it into the air. The sharp sound of the gunshot reverberated through the nightclub, instantly silencing the chaos and sending a wave of panic through the crowd. Lei Junmo and Lei Juncheng, startled by the unexpected turn of events, found themselves momentarily frozen in place.
As the smoke from the gunshot lingered in the air, the atmosphere in the club shifted from chaotic confrontation to a tense standstill. Yu Xi aimed the gun at Lei Juncheng and threatened to shoot the latter.
Lei Junshan, who had maintained a calm demeanor thus far, stepped forward. The eldest of the Lei brothers, with a commanding presence, positioned himself between Yu Xi and Lei Juncheng. While the nightclub held its breath, Lei Junshan, unfazed by the gun aimed in his direction, confronted Yu Xi with a steady gaze.
"Shoot!" Lei Junshan said in a fierce tone.
The two brothers behind Lei Junshan held their breaths as a gun was aimed at their eldest brother's chest. However, Lei Junshan remained unfazed.
Yu Xi had a gun but he actually did not have the courage to really shoot someone. As Yu Xi hesitated, revealing a reluctance to use the gun for actual harm, the brief moment of indecision became the opening Lei Junshan needed. Seizing the opportunity, Lei Junshan moved with swift and decisive action. He closed the distance between them, snatched the gun from Yu Xi's grasp, and delivered a forceful punch to Yu Xi's face.
The nightclub, once plunged into a tense silence, erupted with a collective gasp as the dynamics of the confrontation shifted once again. Lei Junshan's bold move demonstrated both his physical prowess and his willingness to take charge in the face of danger.
With Lei Junshan now in control, having disarmed Yu Xi and landed a decisive punch, the dynamics of the confrontation shifted. Seemingly emboldened by their eldest brother's intervention, Lei Juncheng and Lei Junmo resumed the fight with renewed energy.
The nightclub was once again filled with the sounds of scuffling and raised voices. The chaotic clash of bodies and the occasional exclamation punctuated the air as the confrontation continued to unfold.
Gu Qiang and the other bodyguards stood in their place as their masters had forbidden them to fight. It seemed that their masters wanted to exercise today by exchanging a few blows with these brats.
After a while, all of the Yu Xi's men were thrown to the ground. How could they fight the young masters of the Lei family who were trained in basic martial arts from their childhood?
…
Meanwhile, Xin Yue had finally bought the groceries from the supermarket and was returning to the Mu house. As she was walking on the road, a few people bumped into her as they were chasing after a thief.
"Sorry, sorry," One of them apologized before resuming his chase.
However, because of the bumping, the groceries and the vegetables in Xin Yue's bag scattered all over the place.
The already exhausted lady then squatted down and started picking all the things on the ground one by one.
…
In the car.
Lei Junmo said to Lei Junshan, "Don't think that I will thank you for saving me. It was your fault to begin with. You scolded me so much today, just because of that Huang Ling."
Lei Junshan's face was stern, "Huang Ling was not at fault in anything that happened today, Junmo. If it was anyone's fault then it would be that foolish girl's fault. She appears to be innocent but is very manipulative by nature."
"How?" Lei Juncheng asked, "Did she decide to stand in Huang Ling's place? She was humiliated without any reason. It was not her fault to begin with."
Lei Juncheng knew what had happened as Lei Junmo had told him everything. And he was very clear about the situation.
However, Lei Junshan did not agree with Lei Juncheng's thoughts. He said, "Don't think that she was innocent. Such type of people are thick-skinned. They do not get hurt by any words. If she really got hurt, she would have shed tears there and then. However, she would have felt bad if she had any self-respect. These people do not have any emotions. They just have a survival instinct. Thus, they are only focused on money."
Lei Juncheng sighed. He did not understand when Lei Junshan's thinking would change.
…
When the three brothers reached the Lei mansion, they were greeted by their grandmother waiting for them.
Lei Junmo instantly wore his sunglasses to hide the wound on his eye.
Grandma Lei walked towards her grandsons and gazed at them carefully.
"Why are you wearing your sunglasses at night?" She posed a question at Lei Junmo.
Lei Junmo paused for a while before responding, "Grandma, your face shines so much that I have to wear sunglasses even at night."
Grandma Lei did not believe Lei Junmo's words. She stepped forward and took off Lei Junmo's sunglasses revealing his wound.
"What is this? Did you guys fight with someone?" Grandma Lei asked astonishingly.
Lei Junmo backed off, "Grandma, Brother Junshan and Brother Juncheng fought. I was merely helping them."
Grandma Lei gave a soft slap on Lei Junmo's arm, "Don't lie to me. I know you must have fought with someone and your brothers might have helped you."
Lei Juncheng interjected at this time, "Grandma, don't worry. It's nothing serious. You should go and take rest now; we will take care of Junmo."
"Are you sure?" Grandma Lei was still not convinced.
Lei Juncheng reassured her, "Yes, don't worry, you must go and take rest."
