Su Muqing's body stiffened, and she gave Xiao Han a somewhat guilty look, seeing that his expression was unchanged, she then breathed a sigh of relief.
Without stopping their steps, the two continued walking forward as if they hadn't heard each other's words.
"Stop." The voice was no longer steady, carrying a hint of anger.
Then two people rushed up from behind, the leader being the same young man from the villa. He was quite handsome, except for a slight darkening under his eyes, a result of excessive indulgence.
"A good dog doesn't stand in the way," Xiao Han said lightly, not even lifting his eyelids. He could feel a strong hostility from this man, naturally, he was not about to be polite.
"Nonsense, how dare you talk to my boss like that?" the student accompanying the young man immediately scolded.
Xiao Han glanced at him, and Man Liang said with surprise, "A dog can keep a dog? What a strange thing."
"Shit, kid, your mouth is too foul." This male student, humble before the young man, turned into a different person in front of Xiao Han, arrogant and tyrannical, and directly slapped Xiao Han's face.
"Hmph."
Xiao Han snorted coldly and grabbed the man's arm, squeezing hard.
"Ah."
The student screamed like a slaughtered pig, staring at Xiao Han in horror, shouting loudly, "Let go of me."
The pain in his arm made his face almost turn pale.
"Trash, you can't even bear this little pain, go play on the side." Xiao Han casually threw him aside, tossing him out.
The male student's body harshly hit the ground, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted.
Seeing this scene, the young man showed no sign of nervousness; he just stared coldly at Xiao Han and then said, "Qingqing, don't forget, you are my fiancée, being together with this man now, aren't you afraid it might cause misunderstandings?"
"Jiang He, don't forget, I have never agreed to this marriage; whether you misunderstand or not has nothing to do with me. Get lost, seeing you just annoys me," Su Muqing said irritably.
She had no fondness for this Jiang He at all; she knew clearly that he was not a good person. Among the girls she knew, several had been toyed with by Jiang He. Such a man only disgusted her.
"Is it because of this guy? Very well, he won't see tomorrow's sun," Jiang He said with a cold laugh after glancing at Xiao Han.
Hearing his words, Su Muqing looked tense and glared at Jiang He, saying, "Jiang He, don't mess around."
"Since you, Su Muqing, don't care about my feelings, I have to take matters into my own hands. I'll get rid of anyone who's in the way," Jiang He said with a cold sneer.
Su Muqing furrowed her brows and said coldly, "Jiang He, I won't allow you to harm Xiao Han. Don't go too far."
"Wife, you are wrong. How can such trash hurt me?" Xiao Han said with some dissatisfaction, arguing with Su Muqing.
"Trash? Haha, kid, we'll see," Jiang He said without further ado and turned to leave.
Xiao Han's body moved slightly, wanting to eliminate the opponent. His master had said, to eliminate all threats as soon as they appear.
However, Su Muqing pulled on Xiao Han and said irritably, "Don't tangle with him anymore, it's no good for you. I can't quarrel with you right now, I need to go find my uncle to resolve this matter, otherwise, you really might not see tomorrow's sun."
"He can't kill me," Xiao Han retorted with a scoff.
The disciple of the Evil Doctor, if he could be easily eliminated, it would probably make his Martial Arts peers laugh their heads off.
"I'm not joking with you, you should go back to your place now, I'll handle the rest," Su Muqing said hurriedly as she left.
Scratching his head, Xiao Han felt a bit depressed. Did he really look that weak? Wanting to kill him, he smirked with a mischievous smile as if there were not many people in this world who could manage that.
But Xiao Han did not continue to stay at the school because now his stomach began to protest. Checking the time, it was almost noon.
"Earn money."
Xiao Han muttered. He was too unfortunate; the little money he got his hands on yesterday had been returned today.
Leisurely walking out of the school, Xiao Han looked back and smiled slightly. Someone was bringing money to him.
He left the school gate and deliberately walked into a small alley. But just after entering, Xiao Han paused—two men were threatening a woman with knives.
"You continue, pretend I'm not here," Xiao Han said as he walked past them.
The woman, initially seeing Xiao Han brightened, but after hearing his words, her eyes dimmed again.
Although Xiao Han said to ignore his existence, the sight of Xiao Han approaching them still made the two men unable to restrain their gruesome expressions as they coldly said, "Get lost, don't get in the way here."
"I'd actually like to get out of your way, just afraid they might not agree," Xiao Han shrugged.
Following Xiao Han's remark, two groups of men rushed out from both ends of the alley, totaling more than twenty in number. These men were burly, their faces filled with a menacing aura, each wielding a machete, looking fierce.
The two thugs were dumbfounded, comparing their own daggers to the situation, their faces turned pale instantly.
"Big brother, we were wrong," one of the thugs said without any thought of resisting, directly kneeling down.
"Big brother, we're not human, we were blind and dared offend your wife. Please, for the sake of us not harming her, spare us and let us off like a fart," they pleaded.
"I never fart," Xiao Han said indifferently.
He glanced at the woman and then grinned, saying, "Wife, come over here."
The woman looked at Xiao Han fearfully and dared not move her feet. She was also stunned by this scene — could this man be the underworld boss? Since when were they involved with each other?
Seeing the woman not moving, Xiao Han reached out his hand and pulled the woman to his side. The two thugs watched as Xiao Han pulled her but dared not resist at all.
They were just small-time hooligans, trivial as ants compared to such big figures of the underworld.
"Facing death and still acting tough, no wonder Yu Shao said you are audacious," a sinister voice rang out. The two groups converged, and a middle-aged man started talking as he stared at Xiao Han, a cold smirk emerging on his face.
Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, the thugs were taken aback for a moment, seeing the current situation, Xiao Han clearly did not seem like the boss of the two groups but rather like their enemy.
They realized they had been deceived, with this thought, both of their faces grimaced.
"You tricked us," they yelled at Xiao Han.
The woman also realized the truth. Although she found it amusing, seeing the over twenty people with machetes all fired up, she couldn't laugh at all.
"It's just your own stupidity," Xiao Han shrugged nonchalantly.
"Bastards."
The two thugs roared and charged towards Xiao Han. Both brandishing their daggers, they stabbed towards Xiao Han.
Though they dared not offend people from the underworld, they seemed ferocious when facing ordinary people. But they should have considered that a man being blocked by more than twenty people wielding machetes and still being so calm could hardly be an ordinary man.
"Thud."
"Thud."
Xiao Han kicked each of the thugs in the chest. The two thugs hit the wall behind them hard, spewing blood and collapsing to the ground.
The middle-aged man looked at this scene, a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he couldn't help but nod, saying, "No wonder you're so bold; you do have some skills, but no matter how strong you are, you can't beat so many of us."
Then, his gaze turned towards the woman, his eyes revealing a hint of admiration, and said, "This woman looks good; after we kill this guy, brothers, we'll take her back and have a good time."
"Yes,"
All the henchmen's eyes lit up.
The woman's face turned pale; wasn't it too tragic? Just rescued from the clutches of the thugs, and now she was about to fall into the hands of an even more terrifying group of people; her life was too miserable.
As if sensing the woman's mood, Xiao Han glanced at her, grinned, his dazzling white teeth exceptionally bright under the sun, and said, "Trust your man."
The woman's face blushed, her typically unflappable heart disturbed, she rolled her eyes at Xiao Han and muttered, "You're not my man; I don't even know your name."
Her voice was very low, almost inaudible to herself.
But as she finished speaking, Xiao Han replied, "My name is Xiao Han."
The woman widened her eyes; her voice had been so low, how could he have heard? Was this guy's hearing as keen as a dog's?
"Facing death and still flirting, Xiao Han remember, the one who kills you is Wei Qiang. Don't forget to complain to King Yan when you get there," the middle-aged man said with a cold smirk.
He gestured, and a crowd charged toward Xiao Han, raising their machetes, looking murderously enthusiastic.
