53: Chapter 52, I am your ancestor!
Fang Yi smiled, he had no reason not to take it.
“You don’t have to be too polite to me, I’m helping Cai Cai because I really kid.” Fang Yi held the bowl of hot soup and said, “If you have any difficulties, just tell me directly, I’ll help if I can.”
Xia Ziqi nodded gently and gave a grunt of acknowledgment.
Fang Yi drank the soup then handed the bowl back to Xia Ziqi.
Upon entering the house, Fang Yi cooked his own meal, an essential task, as he was not lazy and wouldn’t settle for instant food like ramen.
However, just as Fang Yi had finished cooking and placed the food on the table, he heard a knock at the door.
Fang Yi walked toward the door and pulled it open.
He thought it was Cai Cai, but standing outside were several burly men, all of whom smirked with ill intentions upon seeing him.
“I don’t seem to know you gentlemen.” Fang Yi said.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know us, as long as we know you, that’s enough.
You’re Fang Yi, right?” A tall man said, apparently the leader of the group.
Fang Yi calmly replied, “I am.”
The tall man sneered, “Good!
Someone paid us to help out, asked that you stay away from his wife and kid.
Also, hand over a hundred thousand yuan immediately and we’ll consider the matter settled.”
Fang Yi suddenly realized what was going on, then shook his head and said, “I don’t have the money.”
“No money?” The tall man scoffed coldly, “No money?
Then you can’t blame us for breaking a few of your bones!” Saying this, the tall man reached out, ready to grab Fang Yi’s collar.
A glint flashed in Fang Yi’s eyes.
As the man reached out, Fang Yi swiftly knocked his hand away and then delivered a punch directly to the man’s nose, collapsing it.
This all happened in the blink of an eye.
The other tough men behind tried to rush in, but the doorway was too cramped for them to burst through all at once.
So, this scene unfolded with the burly men squeezed in the doorway, unable to charge in.
As they struggled, screams erupted from them as Fang Yi continued to land punches on their noses.
In just a short while, these men were crouching in the hallway, holding their noses, while Fang Yi untied his apron, lit a cigarette, shut his door, and went to knock on Xia Ziqi’s apartment.
there was no response at all.
“You, come here!” Fang Yi pointed to the first man whose nose he had broken.
“Yes, you, hurry up.” Fang Yi said coldly.
The tall man had to comply.
“Break down the door!” Fang Yi ordered icily, with an intimidating gaze.
The tall man wanted to say something more, but Fang Yi punched him again in the face, stuffing his words back into his mouth.
The door was broken open.
Fang Yi walked in, but he saw neither Xia Ziqi nor Cai Cai.
His expression immediately darkened.
He stepped out, grabbed the tall man holding his nose by his collar, and demanded coldly, “Where are they?”
This time Fang Yi struck the man’s abdomen with his knee, and said word by word, “Where!
In a rather remote neighborhood with few residents, mostly old houses, and not a single security guard, the environment was quite dirty and messy.
There was no elevator in the neighborhood; only mid-to-high-end neighborhoods had those.
Inside a two-bedroom apartment, the lighting was dim, and a haze of smoke rose from the lightbulb.
The smell inside the room was unpleasant and the place was a mess.
Underneath that old lightbulb, there was a table with four people, three of them playing a card game called “Fight the Landlord” and one observing.
The onlooker, skinny as a rail, was smiling at a buzz-cut man with a cigarette in his mouth, saying, “Brother Ma, I owe you big time for this one.
Rest assured, as soon as that kid coughs up the money, I’ll only take forty thousand; the other sixty thousand is all yours.”
“Double pairs!” The buzz-cut man threw the last two cards on the table, gathered the money, then looked at the man by his side with utmost respect.
Taking a puff of smoke and exhaling, the buzz-cut man said, “Liu Zhe, you know my reputation, Ma Rui, is solid in the underworld.
Don’t worry, once this job is done, you can still work for me.”
Hearing this, Liu Zhe immediately became excited, repeatedly expressing his gratitude.
“Thank you, Brother Ma, thank you.”
Ma Rui said, “Alright, alright.
I need to use the restroom.
Take my seat; gamble away this money.”
Hearing this, Liu Zhe was deeply touched, thinking to himself how unlike the stingy man rumored in the underworld Brother Ma was.
Ma Rui left his seat and appeared to be heading to the restroom, but just as he got there, he swiftly slipped into a bedroom instead, cursing under his breath, “Damn it, if it weren’t for your pretty wife, I wouldn’t even bother with this job.”
As Ma Rui entered the bedroom, he saw a woman with both hands and feet tied, and a flame of desire ignited within him.
what are you going to do!” Xia Ziqi exclaimed in horror.
“Heh, what do I want to do?
Can’t you tell…” Ma Rui moved toward Xia Ziqi with a lecherous smile on his face.
When Fang Yi arrived at the neighborhood, he glanced at his watch; it had only taken about ten minutes, his fastest time.
At the entrance was a lookout, whom Fang Yi walked straight towards without a word, knocking him unconscious before knocking on the door.
Soon after, a man with a cigarette in his mouth, wearing a tank top with tattoos on his arm, opened the door.
He was initially startled to see Fang Yi, a stranger, then he saw his unconscious partner on the ground and immediately yelled, “Holy shit!”
Fang Yi swung a punch that sent the man flying back, crashing into the wall; Fang Yi then burst into the apartment.
Liu Zhe was sitting there with one of Ma Rui’s men.
Upon seeing Fang Yi, his face turned pale with shock.
Fang Yi, face cold, walked over and, picking up a chair, smashed it onto Liu Zhe’s head.
“Where is Xia Ziqi?” Fang Yi demanded.
A cold glint flashed in Fang Yi’s eyes, followed by a punch to Liu Zhe’s chest, knocking the emaciated man out cold with a spit of blood.
Turning to the last person, Fang Yi looked over.
“Boss… Boss is in the bedroom, he is with that woman…” The man, terrified by Fang Yi’s icy gaze, blurted out immediately.
Fang Yi’s heart sank, and he swiftly rushed towards the bedroom, kicking open the door.
The scene before him ignited a fury in his chest.
Cai Cai was unconscious at one side, while Xia Ziqi’s hands and feet were tied, and she was cowering in a corner.
A buzz-cut man, now stripped to his underwear, was jumping around in front of her, his back to Fang Yi.
The noise of Fang Yi kicking open the door startled Ma Rui, who, upon seeing Fang Yi, first froze in shock, then furiously shouted, “Who are you!
I was enjoying myself; get the hell out!”
“I am your ancestor!” Fang Yi spat out the words coldly, his face ominous, his eyes flashing with murderous intent as he strode toward Ma Rui.
