Chapter 27: The Wine Bottle

Zeng Yi looked at Young Master Chi with a half-smiling, half-scornful gaze and said, "Sometimes the parts you need are right on your body, but you wish you could cut them off."

"What did you say, kid?"

The voice was a bit low, as if Zeng Yi was talking to himself. Young Master Chi didn't hear clearly at first and asked again.

A few thugs rushed forward. "Young Master Chi, why waste words with him? Just beat him to death!" As they spoke, the small thugs took out their weapons, and one of them even had a steel pipe.

"None of you move!"

Chen Long shouted and stepped forward. Initially, he didn't want Zeng Yi to get involved, but since Zeng Yi had already stepped out, he had nothing to lose. No matter how powerful Young Master Chi was, could he be more powerful than Expert Zeng? His father, the deputy director, might be a big shot in Chen Long's eyes, but compared to Secretary Fang, he was just a dead eel on the ground. Secretary Fang didn't even need to act; just a finger movement from Secretary Tang could crush his father eighteen times over.

Therefore, Chen Long stepped forward without hesitation. If he didn't show his mettle now, when would he?

Another person interfering made Young Master Chi very unhappy, but when he saw who it was, he sneered, "Pah! I wondered who it was. It's Director Chen. Which pair of pants didn't hold you in this time? Have you forgotten what happened last time?"

Chen Long's face turned red with anger, his hands clenched behind his back, wishing he could smash Young Master Chi's sallow face to pieces. But he could only think it in his head. Suppressing his anger, he said, "Young Master Chi, this is my friend. It was a misunderstanding. Let's just let it go."

"Let it go?" Young Master Chi spat in Chen Long's face, "If I let this go, how can I continue to run my business?"

After Young Master Chi finished his tirade, Chen Long said, "We'll see each other again. Young Master Chi, give me some face. If there's any offense, I'll apologize on his behalf."

Young Master Chi glared at Chen Long. He was furious but didn't want to completely offend him, after all, he was the police station chief. If pushed too far, he might not be able to handle Chen Long, but he could easily have his henchmen arrested.

After a moment, Young Master Chi said, "Fine, since Director Chen has spoken, I'll give you some face. Have him leave the girl behind, come over, and kowtow to me, calling me 'Grandpa Chi' and 'Daddy Chi.' If I'm in a good mood, I might let him go."

"Chi, don't be too arrogant!" Chen Long suddenly exploded, "You can say whatever you want to me, but if you dare to make things difficult for my friend, I won't be lenient!" He snapped his handcuffs open and pointed at the thugs, "Whoever dares to move today, I'll cuff them all!"

Young Master Chi seemed taken aback by Chen Long's outburst. After a moment of shock, he punched Chen Long in the chest and shouted, "Chen Long, are you crazy? Do you want to lose your position? I give you three seconds to disappear from my sight, crawl back into your mother's pants, or I'll deal with you too!"

Chen Long staggered back a couple of steps, steadied by Zeng Yi. Once he regained his balance, he said to Zeng Yi, "Brother Zeng, don't worry. I'll protect you, even if it means losing my police uniform." Being punched by Young Master Chi, Chen Long felt a bit happy. This time, he had formed a bond with Expert Zeng. He had taken a punch for him, so Zeng Yi would surely remember this.

The female singer, who had found another beer bottle, pushed Zeng Yi and said, "You go. I can handle this!"

Zeng Yi was somewhat impressed by this girl. In her place, most people would cling to him as their last hope. But she was urging him to leave, showing a level of loyalty and courage that rivaled any man's.

Zeng Yi raised his hand to block her and stood firm.

Young Master Chi looked at Zeng Yi and spat, "I didn't expect a flower protector to show up. You're so protective of her, is she your sister?"

"Let's say she is," Zeng Yi replied coldly.

"Fuck your sister!" Young Master Chi laughed, pointing at the thugs, "Do you know what we're here for tonight? We're here to fuck your sister!"

As he laughed, Young Master Chi suddenly saw a blur, followed by a loud "slap." A tremendous force struck his left cheek, and his head seemed to shift three centimeters on his neck. Before he could scream, he flew out and crashed into several tables.

Zeng Yi's attack was sudden, and the thugs were momentarily stunned before rushing over.

A tall thug picked up a table to smash Zeng Yi's head. Just as he raised it high, Zeng Yi rushed over and poked the thug's chest.

The tall thug was struck as if by lightning, his body trembling. The table fell and hit his own head. He screamed in pain, clutching his chest, and fell to his knees, vomiting.

Seeing the fight start, Chen Long picked up a folding chair and hit a thug on the back. "What the hell, daring to attack Expert Zeng!" He kicked the thug to the ground and prepared to protect Zeng Yi. But when he turned around, he saw that seven or eight thugs were already on the ground, some holding their legs, others their feet, all groaning in pain. The most extreme was the tall thug, who was still vomiting, even spitting out bile, as if trying to vomit his stomach out.

Chen Long was stunned. He never knew Expert Zeng was such a skilled fighter.

The female singer, holding the beer bottle, pulled Young Master Chi up. "Don't ever harass me again, got it?"

"Bitch!" Young Master Chi cursed.

"Bang!" The girl smashed the bottle on Young Master Chi's head. The bottle shattered, and blood flowed from his head. "Got it?"

Young Master Chi's eyes turned red. "Bitch, you dare to hit me, I'll kill you, I'll kill your whole family!"

The girl, without a word, grabbed another bottle from another table and smashed it on Young Master Chi's head again.

Chen Long felt a sense of relief. Bastard, you deserve this. When he stepped forward, Chen Long not only wanted to show his goodwill to Zeng Yi but also had a strong desire for revenge. He hoped Zeng Yi would deal with this Chi bastard. After that incident, Chen Long had become a laughingstock in the police station, unable to hold his head high. He hated Chi to the bone but had to swallow his anger due to his father's power.

Seeing the girl grab a third bottle and Zeng Yi not stopping her, Chen Long panicked. If someone died, it would be a serious problem. He grabbed the girl's hand, "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!"

Young Master Chi, crawling a few meters away, stood up and pulled out his phone. "Captain Zhang, someone is trying to kill me at the night market park. Bring your men over immediately!"

After the call, Young Master Chi, his face covered in blood, pointed at the three of them. "Kid, you're pretty tough, huh? Don't run! See if I don't finish you off today!"

"I'll wait right here!"

Zeng Yi dragged a chair, sat down calmly, and dusted himself off, as if he didn't take the threat seriously at all.
