Xiao Yi watched as Zhao Yongcai's large fist approached his face, his peripheral vision catching the students who had stopped to watch the spectacle, and his brows involuntarily furrowed.

Seeing the fist getting closer and closer, a cold light flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes. He moved his hand, revealing a silver needle, and quickly raised it to intercept Zhao Yongcai's punch.

As Zhao Yongcai saw his fist about to hit Xiao Yi's face, and this kid seemed to be scared stiff, not moving at all, not even trying to dodge, a cruel smile spread across his face. In his mind, he already saw the gruesome scene of Xiao Yi's face covered in blood, teeth and blood flying everywhere.

He was certain that a pretty boy like Xiao Yi couldn't withstand his punch. He knew the strength of his punch well. Even though he lived a life of luxury after joining the Jin family and staying by Young Master Jin's side, he never let his skills decline. He was clear that his ability to stay in the Jin family depended on his fists.

However, just as his fist was about to hit Xiao Yi's face, something unexpected happened. He suddenly noticed that Xiao Yi, who had been standing still, raised his hand to block the punch.

Pretty boy, can your skinny arm block my punch?

Seeing Xiao Yi's action, Zhao Yongcai sneered coldly, not taking it seriously at all.

He was confident that even if Xiao Yi tried to block with his fist, his punch would still make him bleed and lose his teeth!

But just as his fist was about to hit Xiao Yi's fist, his expression suddenly changed!

All the sneers and cruel smiles on his face vanished, replaced by a look of extreme pain.

"Ah!"

Accompanied by a pig-like scream, Zhao Yongcai quickly pulled back his hand, jumping around on the spot. He felt as if his fist had hit a sharp nail, and his entire hand seemed to be pierced by a long spike. A piercing pain continuously shot from his hand to his brain.

Watching Zhao Yongcai jump around like a pig being slaughtered, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Yi's eye. He slowly put away the silver needle. If this were not a school and he didn't want to cause trouble, he would have made Zhao Yongcai disappear from this world just for that insult.

He glanced at Zhao Yongcai with a mocking look and then casually glanced at the Audi parked nearby, before resuming his steps towards the school gate.

At this moment, Zhao Yongcai had no interest in whether Xiao Yi was leaving or not. He just kept holding his hand, jumping around and screaming in pain.

"What happened?"

In the Audi, Zhang Bing and Young Master Jin looked at each other, puzzled. They were standing far away and couldn't see the situation clearly. They only saw Zhao Yongcai punch Xiao Yi, but the one who was hit seemed fine, while Zhao Yongcai himself started screaming like a pig, looking very painful.

"I don't know, I didn't see clearly."

Zhang Bing was also very surprised. He shook his head and said, "We'll ask Brother Zhao when he comes back."

As he spoke, Zhao Yongcai had already opened the car door and sat down. His face was still contorted in pain, but he no longer screamed like a pig. Clearly, he was trying to endure the pain. After a brief period of extreme pain, Zhao Yongcai finally came to his senses. Feeling the strange looks from the surrounding students, he realized he had made a fool of himself and quickly walked back to the car to avoid further embarrassment.

"Brother Zhao, what happened just now? Is that kid really that good at fighting?"

As soon as Zhao Yongcai opened the car door, Zhang Bing immediately asked.

"Good at fighting? Ah... Ah..."

When Zhao Yongcai heard Zhang Bing's words, which seemed to imply that he couldn't beat the kid, his eyes flared with anger. But after a few words, he felt a wave of pain in his hand and let out a scream.

"Then..."

Young Master Jin frowned and looked at Zhao Yongcai's hand.

"Damn it, I'm sorry, Young Master Jin. I was too careless this time and got tricked by that kid!"

After screaming, Zhao Yongcai vented his pain. Perhaps seeing Young Master Jin's dark expression, he finally felt ashamed and finished his sentence. But as he thought of Xiao Yi, who had made him lose face, his teeth almost ground to pieces.

"Tricked?"

Young Master Jin looked at Zhao Yongcai with some confusion.

"Young Master Jin, it's all my fault for being too careless. I never thought that kid would be so despicable. I was going to punch him and make him lose his teeth, but he had a needle in his hand, and... well, you saw the result."

Zhao Yongcai didn't explain the result, but everyone had already seen it, or at least guessed it.

Hearing Zhao Yongcai's words, Young Master Jin and Zhang Bing finally understood why Zhao Yongcai had suddenly screamed in pain. Both of their expressions became strange.

No one had expected that Xiao Yi, who looked like a country boy, would be so devious.

As for why Xiao Yi had a needle in his hand, they didn't think much about it. After all, they didn't know much about people from the countryside. They had heard that some people there, when their clothes were torn, didn't replace them but carried needles and thread to mend them. Who knew what other strange things they might carry.

Both of them looked at Zhao Yongcai with some sympathy.

"Damn, I didn't expect this kid to be so devious. We'll get him later!"

After a while, Zhang Bing said angrily, then looked at Zhao Yongcai with concern, "Brother Zhao, is your hand okay?"

"It's fine, just a little puncture, very painful, but it will be better soon. Thank you for your concern, Young Master Zhang. Young Master Jin, Young Master Zhang, rest assured, next time I will definitely give this country bumpkin a good lesson!"

Zhao Yongcai looked at Zhang Bing with gratitude. Although Zhang Bing wasn't as important as Young Master Jin, he was still a young master, and his concern moved him. After thanking him, he immediately said fiercely, his eyes burning with hatred.

He secretly decided that since Xiao Yi had tricked him and made him lose face, he would swear to cripple him the next time they met and show off in front of Young Master Jin.
