"You country bumpkin from a small town, how dare you make fun of me?"

Guan Shuai slammed his fist on the table, splashing soup everywhere: "You want to eat, huh? I'll let you eat your fill."

"Waiter, steam ten pots of rice for me and bring them all to me."

"If he doesn't finish his food, nobody's leaving."

Are you crazy?

Shang Tiantian shook her head repeatedly, finding Guan Shuai utterly unreasonable: "Lili, let's go first, don't pay any attention to him."

She reached out and took Du Aili's hand, then called for Xu Yuan and walked outside.

"You can leave, but he has to stay."

Guan Shuai pointed at Xu Yuan, and several people who had come with him immediately stepped forward to block the doorway, including the tattooed woman they had met on their way here.

"General Guan, are you never going to stop?"

Shang Tiantian raised her head and glared angrily at Guan Shuai: "I've told you many times, I don't like you."

"If you don't like it now, you won't like it in the future, so just give up on it."

Even if every man in the world died, I still wouldn't like you.

Now, do you understand?

"Neuropathy."

Shang Tiantian threw down a sentence, pulled Du Aili out, and glanced at the people blocking the door. Her sharp gaze swept over them, and everyone silently avoided her.

Within the entertainment industry, Shang Tiantian also has a nickname: Little Chili Pepper.

Don't let her small size fool you into thinking she's easy to bully; in reality, most people wouldn't dare mess with her.

"Who dares to block my way? Let me see."

Shang Tiantian spoke, and the others exchanged glances and silently took a step to the side.

"Get out of here."

She pulled Du Aili out the door, and Xu Yuan, who was following behind, was surrounded by them as soon as she took a step.

"Kid, you really are a gigolo, aren't you?"

If you want a woman to stand up for you, then follow her around like a lapdog.

"But this time, you've got the wrong person."

Sweetie is not someone you can mess with.

Guan Shuai knew that Xu Yuan came from a small place like Mingdai, and as a native of the capital, he looked down on him even more.

"If you don't leave something behind today, you won't learn your lesson."

Xu Yuan scratched his head helplessly: "I just went out to eat, and I found a fly in my food."

"What are you doing? Get out of my way!"

When Shang Tiantian and Du Aili saw that Xu Yuan had been stopped and was turning back, they tried to walk back, but someone immediately stepped forward to block their way.

"Our Commander Guan is just going to talk to him, there's no need to be nervous."

"Bullshit." Shang Tiantian raised her hand and slapped the boy blocking her face. "What's there to talk to him about? Let me through."

The tall, thin man showed no anger after being slapped; he stood firmly in place, still preventing Shang Tiantian from passing.

"Guan Shuai, if you dare touch him, you're dead!" Shang Tiantian warned loudly.

When Guan Shuai heard Shang Tiantian's anger, his gaze toward Xu Yuan became even colder.

"You still say it's okay?"

"If it were really nothing, would she be so worried about you?"

She's never said anything so harsh to me before; it seems you're very important to her.

"In that case, you're going to suffer."

What a waste of that face.

Being handsome isn't necessarily a good thing for a man.

Pooh…

Xu Yuan spat on the ground, then met Guan Shuai's gaze with neither humility nor arrogance: "Didn't you want me to leave something behind?"

"This phlegm is for you; keep it safe."

Guan Shuai's lips twitched, and his eyes blazed as he looked down at his shoes.

"You country bumpkin."

"One bite isn't enough, shall I give you another bite?"

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Yuan added, "No need to thank me. If you want more next time, just come find me."

The tattooed woman and the others watched the scene unfold, barely stunned. When they looked at Xu Yuan, it was as if they were looking at a dead person.

Is he courting death?

Is he mocking Guan Shao?

Enraged, Guan Shuai pointed at Xu Yuan through gritted teeth and said, "You're asking for death."

"Oh no, he's angered Commander Guan."

Shang Tiantian, who was being stopped, was so anxious that her palms were sweating. She took out her phone to make a call.

"Let's wait and see." Du Aili was in no hurry. She understood Xu Yuan and had absolute confidence in him.

"What are you waiting for?"

If you wait any longer, your little lover will be beaten to death by them.

"You don't know what these people are capable of; they are all rich young masters and privileged sons of officials in the circle."

Even if someone dies, it's just a matter of spending some money.

"No, isn't he your boyfriend?"

"Aren't you worried at all?" Shang Tiantian was puzzled; Du Aili wasn't nervous at all.

Du Aili said calmly, "They are the ones who should be worried."

"Lili, you're joking."

This is the capital, not Mingdai. Even if your family has some influence in Mingdai, it's useless in the capital.

"He himself is his own power," Du Aili muttered to herself.

Shang Tiantian didn't understand what Du Aili meant. Then a scream came, and Shang Tiantian looked up in alarm.

With a flick of his sword, Xu Yuan pointed, and a chopstick flew from the table, piercing Guan Shuai's earlobe.

Guan Shuai, who was about to step forward and attack Xu Yuan, squatted down on the ground, clutching his bleeding ear.

"It hurts, it hurts so much!"

"Blood, there's blood."

"Ah...this..."

The tattooed woman and the others who came with Guan Shuai looked at Xu Yuan in horror, then at Guan Shuai, who was squatting on the ground with blood gushing from between his fingers. They all stood there dumbfounded.

What just happened?

Before they could even see what was happening, Guan Shuai squatted down on the ground.

"What...what did you do?"

The tattooed woman swallowed hard, pointing at Xu Yuan with a fierce but cowardly expression, and subconsciously retreated, afraid that something strange might happen again.

Xu Yuan shrugged and said, "I didn't do anything!"

"He wanted me to leave something behind. He didn't seem very satisfied with what I had before, so I just gave him an ear piercing."

"I suggest you take him to the hospital. If you wait too long, he might end up with a chopstick growing out of his earlobe."

"Go, go to the hospital."

Guan Shuai was in so much pain that he had no other thoughts but to stop the pain as soon as possible. He called for the others to help him walk out.

Shang Tiantian watched their disheveled figures leave, her small mouth agape in astonishment as she stared at Xu Yuan in disbelief.

"What did you do to him?"

"I just helped him get his ear pierced, it won't kill him."

Xu Yuan spoke lightly, but Shang Tiantian was extremely worried, after all, the matter was caused by her.

"You've really gotten yourself into trouble now; he'll definitely cause you more trouble."

Once you've finished your business, hurry back to Mingdai.

She had already decided to help Xu Yuan find Guan Shuai to resolve this conflict.

"This is the capital, unlike your Mingdai."

"They are definitely different."

Xu Yuan and Du Aili walked downstairs side by side: "Everyone seems so arrogant. I've seen it all."

After dropping Xu Yuan off at her hotel, Xu Yuan assumed Du Aili would stay there, but she ended up leaving in Shang Tiantian's car.

"Aren't you coming together?"

He watched the car drive away, then absently scratched his head.

Shang Tiantian saw this scene through the rearview mirror and looked at Du Aili teasingly.

"He seems reluctant to part with you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Du Aili blushed.

"Tell me, where are you at?"
