Chapter 529: Arrogant Li Qing

The voice instantly drew the attention of everyone in the main dining hall.

Some of the more curious onlookers even stood up to get a better look.

A handsome, androgynous-looking person strode toward Wu Yun’s table, followed by four burly, broad-shouldered men.

Seeing the newcomer’s aggressive approach, Wei Wu and the others shot to their feet. Da Xiong and Wei Wu, who were seated at the edge of the table, immediately blocked the path.

The fact that there were a few foreigners among the burly men made them hesitate for a moment.

Li Qing’s brow furrowed, a flash of anger crossing her delicate, handsome face. “Who the fuck are you people?! Get out of the way!”

Wu Yun looked at the furious Li Qing, smiled, and waved at Wei Wu. “Let her come over.”

Da Xiong immediately cleared a path and let Li Qing through. The men behind her also tried to follow but were blocked by Da Xiong.

The six-foot-three, powerfully built Da Xiong, combined with the scars on his arms, was extremely intimidating. He looked down at the four men behind Li Qing, and the group, who had seemed so arrogant just moments before, couldn’t help but lower their heads.

Li Qing glanced back and saw what was happening. Her fury subsided slightly, but she still had an angry expression on her face as she reached the table where Wu Yun and the others were sitting.

“Zhai Na! We haven’t broken up yet, have we? And you’re already out here hooking up with other people!” Li Qing barely spared Wu Yun a glance. She thought he looked familiar but didn’t dwell on it, immediately directing her accusation at Zhai Na.

At these words, the onlookers in the dining hall grew excited. ‘The cheating drama of the year!’

Yu Xiao stood up, his eyes locked on Li Qing, who was nearly as tall as him. “You should take a look in the mirror before you say something like that. What right do you have to accuse Zhai Na when you’re playing the field with who knows how many people!”

“Holy shit! What a plot twist! This is straight out of a TV show!” a nearby customer exclaimed, pulling out his phone to record.

“Yeah! And look, those guys standing are obviously bodyguards! Is there some tycoon eating at that table?” his companion craned his neck to get a better view of Wu Yun’s group.

“Holy shit! It’s him!”

…

Li Qing became so agitated her eyes started to redden. She stared daggers at Yu Xiao and said coldly, “Who the hell do you think you are? Didn’t you learn your lesson from the last beating you took?”

Yu Xiao shrugged and gave a scornful laugh. “So it really was you. You should cherish the next few days. You don’t have many left.”

Li Qing took a small step back, looking Yu Xiao up and down. “Who gave you the nerve?! In Rongcheng, I’ll beat up people like you every time I see them! You’d better watch your back!”

“If you’ve got the guts, then go ahead and kill me! Because as long as you don’t, I’ll make damn sure you regret it!” Yu Xiao suddenly seemed to remember something and added with a laugh, “Oh! I forgot! You don’t have any guts. HAHAHAHA!”

Yu Xiao’s words thoroughly enraged Li Qing. She raised her fist and lunged, aiming a punch at Yu Xiao’s head.

Just then, Zhai Na cried out, “Li Qing, stop! I’m telling you officially! We’re breaking up! Right now! I’ll pay back the money I owe you! I’ll even pay interest at the bank’s standard rate!”

Yu Xiao blocked Li Qing’s descending fist. With bloodshot eyes, Li Qing glared at the two of them. “Fine! You two dogs! As long as you’re still in Rongcheng, this isn’t over!”

“CLAP, CLAP, CLAP. Oh, we’re so scared! It seems you’re the one who runs Rongcheng, huh?” Wu Yun applauded slowly, a smile on his face.

Li Qing looked at Wu Yun again. He still seemed very familiar, but in her rage, she couldn’t calm down enough to place him.

Raised with the belief that you should never lose face even if you lose the fight, she sneered, “What? Got a problem with me? I just love seeing you look like you can’t stand me but are completely helpless to do anything about it.”

Wu Yun smiled and held up his phone, the screen clearly showing that it was recording audio.

Li Qing pointed at Wu Yun’s nose, then glanced at her subordinates being held back nearby. “You win this round,” she said coldly.

“Zhai Na! Don’t think you can wash your hands of me just because you’ve found a new backer! I’m telling you, this isn’t over!” After saying her piece, Li Qing turned and walked down another aisle, leaving the hot pot restaurant with her crew a moment later.

Watching Li Qing’s retreating figure, Yu Xiao asked, confused, “Cousin, what good is that recording?”

Wu Yun smiled. “Looks like Li Qing isn’t a complete fool.”

“She just admitted to sending people to beat you up. So this recording is solid evidence. Plus, we have you as a witness.”

Wu Yun glanced at Yu Xiao’s back. There were still large bruises under his clothes, more than enough for a formal injury assessment. That way, even if they couldn’t touch Li Qing herself, they could still put her thugs behind bars.

“After we finish eating, I’ll have a lawyer go with you to file a police report.”

Wu Yun had barely finished his sentence when Yu Xiao exclaimed, “A police report?! No way! If I go to the police, my dad will definitely find out!”

A glint appeared in Zhai Na’s eyes, and she quickly smiled. “Yu Xiao, you can just list me, the lawyer, or Wu Yun as your emergency contact! Besides, with the lawyer there to talk to the police, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Wu Yun gave Zhai Na a slightly surprised look, then smiled. “Sister Na is right. You don’t need to be afraid. Even if Uncle finds out, I’ll have your back.”

Seeing Yu Xiao’s hesitation, Wu Yun’s next words sealed his decision. “Don’t you want to take care of this problem for Sister Na once and for all? Do you want people constantly harassing you two whenever you’re together?”

Yu Xiao felt that if he hesitated any longer, he wouldn’t be much of a man. He agreed without reservation, “Alright! After dinner, I’ll go to the police station near campus and file a report! Cousin, you should probably contact the lawyer first.”

Wu Yun nodded, then turned and called out, “Wang Hao!”
