Chapter 2692 - 2694: Can’t Even Eat Barbecue in Peace
"A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit."
"I know you wanted to help the company, that’s why you didn’t get the situation."
"It’s no big deal."
Xiao Chen said, "Just be careful in the future."
"Okay!"
Li Junyao nodded gratefully.
"By the way, to apologize, how about I treat you to a meal?"
Li Junyao suddenly said.
"Here?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Of course not. We’ve had too much rich food on regular days, how about we go for some BBQ?"
Li Junyao laughed, "You probably don’t know, but my hometown is in Central Plains City.
My parents run a BBQ restaurant there.
Business is quite good."
"No way, you’re so wealthy, and your parents still work?"
Li Na exclaimed in surprise.
"They can’t sit still. I send money every month, but they save it up.
They say it’s to be my dowry."
Li Junyao smiled wryly.
"Hahaha, such adorable parents.
Alright, just what I need for a change of taste today."
Xiao Chen laughed heartily.
The group of four headed to the BBQ restaurant.
On the way, Li Na received a call about an emergency in Tianhai City and had to leave first.
Li Junyao took Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen to the BBQ place.
The street was full of restaurants.
The BBQ place was indeed bustling.
People came and went.
Li Junyao’s parents were extremely happy to see her.
Though they couldn’t stop mentioning marriage.
Li Junyao smiled wryly, speechless.
Parents love to push for marriage, don’t they?
"These are our boss and lady boss."
Li Junyao introduced.
"We’ve heard so much about you from Junyao, how wonderful you all are.
Today, you must enjoy yourselves; let us treat you as a token of thanks!"
Her parents said, very happily.
Xiao Chen could sense the warmth coming his way.
These two were just like Li Junyao, straightforward in character.
Just as he was about to speak.
Suddenly, someone outside shouted, "Street Overlord is here!"
Their expressions changed drastically in fear.
The next moment, Xiao Chen saw several cars pulling up the street.
All of them were off-road vehicles.
Tough ones.
The cheapest of them was worth hundreds of thousands.
A group of people descended from the cars.
Heading directly to Li Junyao’s family’s BBQ place.
"Old man Li, I heard you reported me?"
The leading man was tall and fierce.
Wearing a leather jacket.
Killer intent in his eyes.
Very domineering.
Xiao Chen could tell this person wasn’t ordinary.
A martial artist.
An Inner Strength Warrior.
Though in his eyes, not worth mentioning.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, very intimidating indeed.
This guy was probably the Street Overlord everyone mentioned.
"So what if I reported you?
What gives you the right to extort money?
You’re not an official.
And you injured people in my shop, broke several tables of mine.
You wouldn’t agree to a settlement, so I had to report you."
Li Junyao’s father said.
"Heh heh!"
The Street Overlord chuckled coldly, "You two old folks really aren’t afraid of death, huh?
Do you know what era it is now?
It’s the Martial Artist Age.
Mess with us, you know what your fate will be?"
"What fate?"
Li Junyao’s father said coldly.
"You two old folks might not fear death.
But your daughter won’t be able to ignore it, right?
I heard your daughter is quite beautiful.
Why don’t we, the brothers, have some fun?
Hahaha!"
The Street Overlord laughed loudly.
Everyone joined in with jeers.
"Who do you want to mess with? Say it again!"
Li Junyao suddenly stood up.
Shooting the Street Overlord a fierce glare, she said coldly.
"Oh, a beauty!
And not just one beauty, huh?"
The Street Overlord glanced at Li Junyao and then at Jiang Meng.
Practically drooling.
"You are not to touch my daughter!"
Li Junyao’s father stepped in front of his daughter.
Protecting her with his aging body.
"Oh, so this is your daughter, huh?
Indeed, she’s quite the looker.
I’ve seen plenty of beauties.
But such a pretty girl, it’s my first time seeing.
Although the other one is even more beautiful.
Tonight, I’m in for a treat."
The Street Overlord grinned sleazily.
"Boss, once you’re done, let us have a go too."
The Street Overlord’s men said excitedly.
"Don’t worry, everyone gets a share."
The Street Overlord said.
Then, he adjusted his clothes.
He walked over to Jiang Meng, smiling, "Beauty, how about a ride with me? I promise you’ll love it."
"Get lost!"
Xiao Chen never liked talking more than necessary with scum like this.
He shouted directly.
"How dare you talk to the boss like that, looking for trouble, huh?"
The Street Overlord’s group roared, about to charge at Xiao Chen.
But the Street Overlord stopped them.
The Street Overlord laughed, "Your woman, huh?
No wonder.
But kid.
The women I set my sights on, I always get them.
Tell you what, seeing that you’re having BBQ, probably not much money.
How about I give you a million?
Your woman will be mine."
As he spoke, he took out a card and handed it to Xiao Chen.
Smiling broadly as he spoke.
He believed, most men couldn’t resist such temptation.
"Smack!"
Xiao Chen directly smashed the card onto the Street Overlord’s face, "I told you to get lost, didn’t you hear?
If you’re not gone from this street in a minute.
I guarantee you’ll never be able to terrorize anyone again."
"Hahahaha!"
The Street Overlord and others laughed uproariously.
They had been threatened before.
But those who threatened them, they crippled them all.
Today, someone else claimed they were going to teach them a lesson.
It was naturally quite amusing to them.
"Whether you want the money or not.
This woman is coming with us either way!"
The Street Overlord sneered.
Xiao Chen completely ignored him.
He just checked the time on his phone, "Your time is running out!"
"Heh, alright, I’ll wait a minute and see what happens next!"
The Street Overlord laughed.
He took out a cigarette and lit it.
Began to smoke.
Originally, he wanted to act directly.
But he enjoyed a good contest.
Xiao Chen said they’d regret it after a minute.
Alright, he’d see, what could possibly happen after a minute.
Xiao Chen continued eating BBQ, waiting.
Very soon, a minute passed.
Xiao Chen stood up.
Walked outside the shop.
"Don’t disturb others dining.
Come over here!"
Xiao Chen said calmly.
"Hehe, I’m here, what are you going to do?
Thinking of hitting me?
Fine, if you got the guts, hit me here!"
The Street Overlord jutted his head out, pointing and taunting.
Xiao Chen smirked and suddenly picked up a brick from the street, smashing it down.
Bang!
A loud crash.
The Street Overlord fell to the ground.
Letting out a piercing scream.
Luckily, he was a martial artist.
If he were an ordinary person.
This blow would have severely injured him.
But now he was dazed.
Completely confused.
He never expected Xiao Chen to actually make a move.
There were so many of them.
And just Xiao Chen alone.
Daring to attack him.
Crazy!
Truly crazy!
Jiang Meng was used to this, continuing to sit and eat BBQ.
