Chapter 2208 - 2409: Are You Out of Your Mind?!

"It's you? Why are you here?" He Yingzi was surprised to find that the person who suddenly appeared to rescue her was Hao Jian.

Hao Jian rolled his eyes and said, "What, can't I come?"

Then he sneered, "Hmph, if I hadn't shown up in time, with that brain of yours, you'd probably already be full of holes by now."

He Yingzi became annoyed at Hao Jian's words, recalling previous humiliations, and snapped, "Screw you, stop yapping. Even if you hadn't come, I would have taken them down myself. You coming here doesn't change anything, you're just showing off."

Hao Jian laughed, "Haha, if it weren't for me, could you still be standing here talking? Stop pretending to be tough, do I not know your limits? Dumbass!"

He Yingzi got angry and pointed at Hao Jian, "Who are you calling a dumbass?"

Hao Jian chuckled, "I'm saying you're a dumbass!"

"You..." He Yingzi pointed at Hao Jian, momentarily speechless with anger, unable to come up with a retort.

"Have you two said enough? If you're done, then shut up!" At this moment, the four people watching couldn't bear it any longer, feeling completely ignored. Their intense discussion infuriated them.

Hao Jian turned abruptly, glaring at them, and said, "Shut up!"

The four of them were taken aback by Hao Jian's outburst, instinctively retreating a step. After realizing it, they didn't understand why they were startled, glaring back at Hao Jian angrily.

"Screw you, are you looking for death?" said the person whose dagger Hao Jian had knocked aside, glaring at him.

In his eyes, if Hao Jian hadn't suddenly appeared, his revenge would have been complete. He had already disfigured He Yingzi, making her experience the prison ordeal. Then they would all have their fun with her, making her regret her life.

But Hao Jian's sudden appearance messed up all their plans.

"Shut up!" Just then, He Yingzi also shouted at them angrily.

The person immediately showed a mix of anger and pulled out the dagger from his pocket, charging at Hao Jian and He Yingzi. Trying to prove herself in front of Hao Jian, He Yingzi simultaneously dodged Hao Jian and prepared to confront him.

But at that moment, Hao Jian's face revealed a strange expression. He could tell at a glance that He Yingzi was no match for this person; after all, she had been subdued easily by him before. But she recklessly charged at him, which was essentially suicide.

He increasingly felt that the saying "long hair, short insight" was entirely accurate, and rushed in front of her helplessly.

By now, He Yingzi had already charged at the person. Seeing her approach barehanded, he smirked and raised the dagger to stab. But in the next instant, Hao Jian jumped in front of him.

"Smack!" he felt a burning pain on his face as if he had been slapped. Indeed, Hao Jian had slapped him swiftly. Instantly, he felt his hand being gripped tightly.

"Ow… ow, let go!" he cried out in pain.

At this point, Hao Jian had already seized his hand, twisted it, and taken the dagger away. His hand was continuously being twisted by Hao Jian, causing him immense pain, while Hao Jian simply smiled, not loosening his grip.

He Yingzi shot a glance at Hao Jian and said, "What are you doing, stealing the show? I'll tell you, if it weren't for you, I'd have already taken him and his crew down."

Hao Jian looked exasperated, not wanting to engage with her. Seriously, you think you could take them all down? Your skills might work against a petty thief, but these guys are skilled, and it's a good thing you didn't get swallowed by the wolves.

Yet, Hao Jian kept these thoughts to himself because he knew it was pointless to say them out loud. Despite only interacting briefly, he had already recognized He Yingzi as particularly opportunistic; otherwise, why would she always be seen apprehending thieves?

Hence, while the thoughts lingered in his mind, he held them back, merely pondering them silently.

"Caonima, what are you two talking about! Damn!" The others couldn't endure it any longer.

They saw Hao Jian and He Yingzi talking to each other in this situation, completely ignoring them, as if they were nothing. Everyone was furious.

"Damn it!"

A group of people exploded in anger, grabbing their weapons and rushing towards the two of them, full of aggression. One reason was the past grudges with He Yingzi, and the other was the rage of being ignored. Four people ran towards them, weapons in hand.

Since they were prepared to take revenge on He Yingzi, these weapons were ready long ago.

Seeing this, He Yingzi was about to step forward and fight the four people. Hao Jian, seeing this, wore a helpless expression. This woman is really impulsive, she acts without fully understanding the situation, really doesn't care about her life.

He couldn't be bothered to argue with her, he pushed her aside and pulled her behind him. How could a girl like He Yingzi have the strength to match him? She was pushed behind him in an instant, and Hao Jian stood alone to face the four people.

They all had daggers, while Hao Jian was unarmed. The four people, seeing Hao Jian act so recklessly, all smirked and quickly rushed up to Hao Jian, eagerly launching an attack. We came to trouble He Yingzi, but since you're the one courting death, don't blame us for being ruthless.

Thinking this, a dagger was already nearing Hao Jian. All four of their faces showed a grin. At the same time, Hao Jian's face also broke into a smile.

"Ding!" Suddenly, a dagger fell to the ground, followed by a scream, all happening without warning. The other three people were a bit surprised, looking again, they found their daggers disappeared in an instant. On another glance, Hao Jian was holding three daggers in his hand, flashing a smug smile towards them.

They hadn't even reacted when their thighs suddenly felt a sharp pain, looking down, a dagger was stuck in each thigh, not too deep, just enough to pierce the flesh. All three of them sat on the ground almost simultaneously. At this moment, Hao Jian smiled.

With a quick sidekick, a series of quick kicks, four people were knocked to the ground. Hao Jian held a dagger over one person's head, pressing down without moving, and that person, who was going to attack Hao Jian, felt a cold sensation on their neck and dared not move.

"Bro... big brother, don't be impulsive." The person with the dagger pressed against their neck trembled.

Hao Jian showed an evil grin, saying, "Whether you move or not isn't up to me. If you move just a little, this dagger might accidentally slip."

The person, who was arrogant before, found having a dagger to their neck was a life-and-death matter. They didn't dare act arrogant anymore, quickly saying in fear, "I won't move, I absolutely won't move."

In an instant, Hao Jian knocked all four of them to the ground, even an idiot knew they weren't his match, especially with their lifeline in his hands. Acting recklessly now would be idiotic.

Hao Jian suddenly asked, "Want to try again?"

The four of them almost simultaneously shook their heads and quickly said, "No, no, we won't."

Hao Jian simply smiled, and in a sudden act of generosity, removed the dagger, saying, "Alright, you can leave now."

The four were a little dazed, thinking it couldn't be that easy, but Hao Jian said, "If you don't leave now, should I spill some blood to make you go?"

The four of them, terrified, stood up despite daggers in their thighs, ready to run, but Hao Jian suddenly stopped them.

"Hey, wait..." Hao Jian said.

The four thought Hao Jian had suddenly changed his mind, and were startled, freezing instantly in their tracks.

Hao Jian suddenly looked at He Yingzi, pointing, said, "Learn your lesson, don't come looking for trouble with her again, or you might find yourself in jail. Assaulting a police officer isn't something you get away with easily, got it?"

The four immediately nodded, saying, "Got it, big brother, we definitely won't do something like this again."

Hao Jian smiled, twirling the dagger, saying, "Alright, get lost now."

Seeing Hao Jian finally letting them go, the four felt a sense of relief as they ran off, disappearing in an instant.

At this point, He Yingzi ran over to Hao Jian, glaring at him, saying, "Why did you let them all go? Are you crazy, they're all criminals!"
