The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"You have some nerve! You're just a bunch of thugs who think you can get away with this by outnumbering me. If you dare touch me today, I'll make sure you never work here again!"

The other party's words immediately enraged Zhou Weikang. He thought that since he couldn't escape anyway, he might as well get serious and avoid making the other party think that he was afraid of them.

"Hahaha, it seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Boss Mo laughed loudly, as if he had heard something extremely ridiculous. Then he pointed at the KTV manager and said, "You, tell him who I am."

The manager nodded and quickly agreed, then slowly said, "This is Mo Huaitian, the boss of Jiangcheng. He is known in the martial arts world as... Mo the Three-Knife, which means that no one can withstand three blows from Boss Mo."

In the past, Zhou Weikang would have laughed at this nickname, but now that we live in a society governed by law, who would dare to brandish knives and guns at you?

But hearing the nickname "Mo Sandao" made his heart sink.

He had heard the name Mo Huaitian before, or rather, almost everyone of importance here had heard of this name.

Because every year, they had to bring gifts to pay respects to Mo Huaitian. Even their own fathers were just juniors in front of Mo Huaitian.

At this moment, Zhou Weikang was filled with remorse. He didn't know why he was so unlucky today. He had actually hit Mo Huaitian instead of himself. Wasn't this just asking for death?

All of this was brought about by that kid Fang Yun. If he hadn't been so mysterious today, I wouldn't have had to buy that bottle of wine, and I wouldn't have taken my anger out on that fat guy.

"Alright, now you know who I am. Since you know, you should accept the beating you deserved today."

As soon as he finished speaking, several bodyguards surrounded Zhou Weikang. Looking at their burly bodies, Zhou Weikang had no doubt that any one of them could break his leg.

"No...please don't come any closer!"

Overwhelmed by fear, Zhou Weikang became somewhat incoherent.

Chapter 392 Resistance

Zhou Weikang had always grown up in a pampered environment and had never seen anything like this before. Even if he had some power, it was only at the level of a bully using someone else's authority. If someone really got serious with him, he would immediately back down.

"Don't...don't touch me! My father won't let you get away with this!"

Zhou Weikang's mournful cries only served as a battle cry for the enemy, and the bodyguards' faces contorted with sneers as their fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

The moment the opponent's fist made contact with Zhou Weikang, Zhou Weikang's body went limp and he couldn't lift it up several times.

He certainly considered asking the authorities to handle it, but considering the identity of the other party, Boss Mo, Zhou Weikang knew very well that this method would not work at all.

Just then, the door to the karaoke room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a woman's surprised voice rang out: "He's here!"

This is the voice of Zhou Qiang, Zhou Weikang's sister.

Zhou Qiang had been unable to contact Zhou Weikang, so she called Liu Zhi instead. However, when she arrived at the KTV, she still couldn't find Zhou Weikang. After waiting for a while and getting a little impatient, Zhou Qiang started looking around the area.

Zhou Qiang was almost past the door of the private room when she suddenly heard Zhou Weikang's voice a few times. So she mustered up her courage and pushed the door open.

Of course, before that, Zhou Qiang also felt that something was wrong, so she sent a message to Liu Zhi and the others, asking them to come over quickly.

When Zhou Qiang saw Zhou Weikang lying on the ground like a dead dog, her expression changed instantly. She hurriedly stepped forward and sternly questioned the black-clad bodyguards.

"Who are you? Why are you hitting my brother? Do you know what the consequences will be?!"

The men in black completely ignored Zhou Qiang's cries for help, instead pushing her aside and continuing their assault.

"Are you...are you even listening to me?!"

Zhou Qiang shouted again, but no one paid any attention.

Zhou Weikang suddenly came to his senses and asked weakly, "What are you doing here? Go back quickly."

Zhou Weikang kept calling out and frantically trying to signal Zhou Qiang to leave quickly and bring reinforcements.

Although his father's influence was far inferior to Mo Huaitian's, he still had some connections and influence in the area, so there might still be room for maneuver in today's situation.

However, Zhou Qiang seemed to be stubborn and completely ignored Zhou Weikang's shouts, instead yelling at the group of bodyguards in black.

"Oh dear, you should go back quickly..." Zhou Weikang was on the verge of tears.

"Stop!" Just then, the middle-aged fat man suddenly waved his hand and shouted.

Upon hearing this, several bodyguards in black looked at Mo Huaitian. Mo Huaitian didn't speak, but simply nodded silently.

Seeing this, Zhou Qiang snorted coldly, knowing that the other party had finally realized that they were afraid.

"Bring that girl over here so I can take a look. I just saw her making such a fuss, and she seemed to have quite a bit of energy, hehe."

The middle-aged fat man smiled and rubbed his hands together, looking very expectant.

With their boss's approval, the bodyguards in black didn't hesitate and immediately grabbed Zhou Qiang, one on each side.

"Hey...hey, what are you doing!"

Zhou Qiang screamed even louder, but unfortunately, the bodyguards were like stone statues, completely ignoring her words.

When Zhou Weikang saw this situation, he immediately became anxious. He thought that if he were beaten today, he would only suffer some injuries and then go back to recuperate for a while.

But if his sister were to suffer any humiliation, her life would be truly ruined, and what face would he, as her brother, have left?

The sight of that fat man's lewd smile made Zhou Weikang feel utterly disgusted.

"What do you want to do? I'm warning you one more time: no matter how powerful you are, you can't do whatever you want! If you push me too far, you won't have an easy time either."

In his desperation, Zhou Weikang launched into another tirade of abuse.

Mo Huaitian wasn't angry when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and said, "This kid does have some backbone. But let me tell you today, backbone alone isn't enough. You also need brains to save your life."

“That’s right, do you know where this is? As long as we’re in Guangling, Boss Mo can do whatever he wants.” Someone next to him chimed in.

At this moment, Zhou Qiang had been dragged and pulled in front of the fat man. A lewd glint flashed in the fat man's eyes, and he was about to reach out his hand.

At that moment, several more people rushed in through the doorway. The leader was dressed in a gray robe and had a calm expression.

"Let go of your pig's trotters, or I'll make you regret having these two hands."

Anger flashed in Liu Zhi's eyes.

Behind him, Li Jiaying, Chen Xiaonan, Fang Yun, and others also came over.

Upon seeing this situation, Fang Yun roughly understood that someone with such a presence was far beyond the reach of Zhou Weikang and his fellow rich kids.

But since Liu Zhi is so confident, why not let him give it another try?

"Oh, another one?" Boss Mo chuckled. "Let him announce his name first."

Chapter 393 Zhou Qiang

"Hmph, I'm afraid you'll find out and not be able to afford to offend them." Liu Zhi said coldly, "Let's not waste any more words and just release my friend. This matter is negotiable."

Liu Zhi was about to say a few more harsh words when Zhou Weikang whispered, "Brother Liu, stop talking. That man is Mo Huaitian."

"What...?"

Liu Zhi was about to speak when he suddenly said, "Mo Huaitian?"

Liu Zhi wasn't unfamiliar with the name; it was just that the person suddenly sitting in front of him made him feel somewhat unreal.

Mo Huaitian is indeed a top boss in this region. Although on the surface he may just appear to be the leader of a group of thugs, those who truly know him understand how terrifying he is.

He has several companies under his control with assets exceeding one billion yuan, not to mention some black market businesses such as casinos and distilleries.

Anyone who hangs out in Guangling knows Mo Huaitian.

"So it's Boss Mo." Liu Zhi's lips trembled slightly as he turned to Zhou Weikang. "How did you manage to offend Boss Mo?"

"This 727... was just an unintentional misunderstanding." Zhou Weikang said with a bitter expression.

Since the other party is Mo Huaitian, Liu Zhi's move just now obviously had no effect. Moreover, he must apologize immediately for his previous actions, otherwise he would be resented by the other party, which would be a huge loss.

"So it's Boss Mo. I don't know why my brother suddenly talked back to you today. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive him this time."

Liu Zhi stepped forward, bowing low, with a fawning smile on his face, a stark contrast to his earlier demeanor.

At this moment, Chen Xiaonan, who was standing behind, asked curiously, "Who is that person? Why is he suddenly being so polite? That's not how you bully someone..."

This time, Li Jiaying was unusually quiet, only tugging at Chen Xiaonan and whispering, "Anyway, (BJBD) is someone with a powerful background. It's best not to offend him if possible."

"What's their background? Are they more powerful than your family?" Chen Xiaonan asked again.

Li Jiaying explained, "It's not that he's more powerful than my family. We can only say that we each have our own strengths and weaknesses. Anyway, my family and his family keep to ourselves. If we really fight, it will hurt everyone involved. It's best if we don't get involved in today's matter."

Chen Xiaonan understood that Li Jiaying wanted to stay out of it, but she still couldn't help but say, "But are we just going to stand by and watch them get bullied..."

"Hmph, these guys are used to being arrogant, it's good that they've been taught a lesson, why should I get involved?"

Li Jiaying said nonchalantly.

“But, isn’t that Miss Zhou Qiang innocent? If you don’t get involved in this, she’ll be in trouble.”

Zhou Qiang was still being held captive by those few people. With so many people rushing in all at once, the fat man immediately lost interest, but he showed no intention of letting Zhou Qiang go.

Li Jiaying remained silent; she did not want to get involved in this mess.

As for Zhou Weikang, she only saw him as a harasser, so why should she offend Mo Huaitian for his sake?

Besides, he wasn't even a core member of the Li family, so his words might not be of any use.

Seeing that Li Jiaying remained silent, Chen Xiaonan had no choice but to turn her gaze to Fang Yun.

Fang Yun had heard that even such ferocious monsters could be tamed, so this kind of thing shouldn't be difficult for him.

Fang Yun saw Chen Xiaonan's eyes and knew what she meant. If it were only Zhou Weikang and Liu Zhi being questioned today, he probably wouldn't care.

He's not some pushover, and these two have always harbored ill intentions towards him, so why should he get involved with them?

However, Zhou Qiang was innocent, and Fang Yun would feel somewhat guilty if he just watched her being humiliated.

"That's the only way. If they insist on not giving up..."
