25: Chapter 0025: Little Brother Ma’s Fear 25: Chapter 0025: Little Brother Ma’s Fear The normally bustling hot pot restaurant took on a strange and oppressive atmosphere due to Ye Xunhuan’s forceful actions.
Inside the hot pot restaurant, under Ye Xunhuan’s watchful eyes, the waitstaff nervously cleaned up the mess, while the other customers, almost none of whom had left, stopped eating and quietly awaited the unfolding events.
After all, in Huaxia, everyone shares one thing in common; they love a spectacle and are not afraid of a big scene, regardless of their social status.
Moreover, many had seen that as Xiong Ge left the hot pot restaurant, he immediately took out his phone to make a call, clearly calling for backup.
Yet Ye Xunhuan seemed completely unfazed, sitting calmly at his table as if nothing had happened, seemingly not afraid of Xiong Ge’s retaliation at all.
There weren’t many people in this world who could catch Ye Xunhuan’s attention or concern.
Ye Xunhuan might not care, but Tang Yurou was visibly scared and whispered anxiously to Ye Xunhuan, “Should we change locations?”
Although she was again impressed by Ye Xunhuan’s skills, knowing he could fight four men as if playing, her excitement and thrill soon vanished— who knew how many more people Xiong Ge might bring even now?
It’s wise not to face dangers that appear right before you.
After showing off, wouldn’t staying behind without fleeing just lead to a beating?
Ye Xunhuan smiled indifferently and said, “Change what?
“Besides, didn’t you say the hot pot here was very tasty?”
Tang Yurou opened her mouth as if to say something more, but upon seeing Ye Xunhuan’s calm face, she slowly swallowed her words and felt a strong surge of confidence rising within her.
This confidence came from Ye Xunhuan, as if nothing at all would happen as long as he was there.
It was a mysterious feeling, but it was genuinely there.
As the evening darkened, chilly and with a gentle breeze, the number of diners in the hot pot restaurant not only did not decrease but seemed to increase as time went on.
All of this stemmed from Ye Xunhuan taking down Xiong Ge swiftly and efficiently.
They wanted to see what direction the situation would take next, and of course, they also took this opportunity to get a good look at Tang Yurou and satisfy their curiosity.
Facing the admiring yet desirous gazes, Tang Yurou felt somewhat uncomfortable, her head bowed and appearing a bit nervous.
In contrast, Ye Xunhuan seemed completely unaffected, calmly eating his hot pot.
The peaceful scene didn’t last long, as a black Audi car made its way through the bustling street and pulled up in front of the hot pot restaurant.
No sooner had the Audi stopped than Xiong Ge hurried forward, skillfully and quickly opening the car door.
Right there under everyone’s gaze, a young man stepped out of the car.
Under the streetlights, the young man’s face was clearly visible.
By looks alone, this man was definitely handsome, but a closer look gave not an impression of charm but rather one of ominous darkness.
This effect stemmed from his eyes, narrow and gleaming, his gaze incredibly cold, the sort of cold that seemed to penetrate right to the bone, the kind that, once fixed on you, made you feel as though you’d plunged into a ice cellar, chilled from head to toe.
One of the four major generals under Little Ninth Brother’s command in the underground world of Jiang City!
Speaking of Little Ninth Brother, in Jiang City he was extremely well-known, recognized from officials to ordinary citizens.
Yet nobody really knew who Little Ninth Brother was, and those who had seen his true face were few; he was very mysterious indeed.
Little Ninth Brother was well known among the people entirely because he had carved out a niche for himself in the underground world of Jiangzhong City within just three months, becoming a guest of honor for countless officials and dignitaries.
The four great generals under Little Ninth Brother’s command had established his reputation as a local boss through countless meritorious deeds, making his name truly formidable!
And Ma Yingjun was the leading general among Little Ninth Brother’s men.
“Brother Ma!” Xiong Ge showed a sycophantic smile as soon as he saw Ma Yingjun.
Ma Yingjun casually glanced at Xiong Ge and the other three men beside him, then snorted coldly, “Trash!”
Far from being angered by Ma Yingjun’s insulting remark, Xiong Ge looked all the more anxious.
Ma Yingjun was Little Ninth Brother’s spokesman — many things were delegated to Ma Yingjun, and even their own brothers didn’t know what Little Ninth Brother looked like.
After becoming the spokesman for Little Ninth Brother, Ma Yingjun’s methods were excessively ruthless, instilling fear and dread in others.
As Xiong Ge and the others stood there feeling anxious, Ma Yingjun spoke again, “Where are they?”
“Please, Brother Ma!”
Saying this, Xiong Ge extended a gesture of invitation and then led Ma Yingjun into the spicy hot pot restaurant.
Many onlookers who recognized Ma Yingjun, a figure who shook the streets of Jiangzhong City, felt a tremor in their hearts and couldn’t help but silently mourn for Ye Xunhuan.
Buddy, you’re done for now that Brother Ma is here.
While feeling sympathy for Ye Xunhuan, many also began to worry about the beautiful Tang Yurou.
Brother Ma’s group were not exactly nice folks, and with Tang Yurou being so beautiful, would they let her off?
If they ruined Tang Yurou…
Under Xiong Ge’s lead, Ma Yingjun walked into the spicy hot pot restaurant.
Tang Yurou tensed up immediately upon seeing Xiong Ge leading Ma Yingjun and his group inside, her fists clenched tightly and slowly began to sweat.
On seeing Ye Xunhuan sitting next to Tang Yurou eating spicy hot pot, Xiong Ge immediately pointed at Ye Xunhuan and said to Ma Yingjun, “Brother Ma, it’s this bastard.
Browsing in the direction of Ye Xunhuan, Ma Yingjun physically jolted upon seeing his face.
The gloominess on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an unprecedented level of respect!
Without a word, Ma Yingjun swung his hand and fiercely slapped Xiong Ge across the face!
A crisp sound rang out, and the immense force directly flung Xiong Ge away.
Ma Yingjun’s sudden hit not only dumbfounded Xiong Ge, but also stunned everyone else.
The next moment, under everyone’s gaze, Ma Yingjun walked nervously towards Ye Xunhuan and Tang Yurou.
In an instant, Ma Yingjun reached Ye Xunhuan and Tang Yurou’s side, “Huan… Brother Huan, I… I…”
Everyone, upon witnessing this scene, was completely stunned.
How could the formidable Brother Ma appear so frightened before this man?
