Chapter 57

Seeing her best friend being taken away, Shi Yuting nervously said to Tao Wei and the others, "Hurry up and think of a way to save Xiaoli!"

The three of them looked utterly dejected, their earlier arrogance and confidence long gone. They were in trouble with Ma Jiuye, and they could barely save themselves, let alone Huang Xiaoli.

Seeing that none of the three were speaking, Shi Yuting angrily said, "If you don't care, then I'll call the police."

As she reached for her phone to call the police, Tao Wei snatched it away and shouted, "You dare to call the police about Ma Jiuye? Do you want to get us all killed?"

Shi Yuting angrily retorted, "Tao Wei, what are you doing? You won't save Xiaoli, and you won't let me call the police. Are you just going to let her be violated?"

"Do you know who Ma Jiuye is? Calling the police will only get us killed."

At this moment, Tao Wei could no longer maintain his previous facade and shouted hysterically, "It's all that bitch's fault. If she hadn't dressed so provocatively, we wouldn't be in such trouble."

"You bastard!" Shi Yuting was utterly disappointed in him. "If you won't save Xiaoli, I will!"

With that, she strode towards the VIP room.

"Yuting, wait for me."

Han Shuai immediately followed her.

Although he knew of Ma Jiuye's reputation, the woman he loved was right in front of him. No matter what dangers lay ahead, he would follow her.

Seeing his good friend go, Ye Bufan naturally followed behind.

Tao Wei and the other two exchanged glances and, with no choice, reluctantly followed. They weren't worried about Shi Yuting; they were afraid of Ma Jiuye's authority, which left them without the courage to run away.

When they entered the room, Shi Yuting shouted, "Let my friend go!"

Ma Jiuye stood up and, without acknowledging Shi Yuting, coldly scanned the group and said, "Who among you hit my cousin? Step forward."

Tao Wei and the other two had nowhere to hide and could only step forward, their legs trembling uncontrollably.

"Grandpa, this is really a misunderstanding. We didn't know..."

"Kneel down! You have no right to stand in front of me!"

Tao Wei was about to explain but was rudely interrupted by Ma Jiuye.

"Grandpa, my father is Tao Zijun. Can you let me off this time for his sake..."

Tao Wei said this, but he didn't hesitate to kneel down with a thud.

"Tao Zijun? He's just a wine supplier. How dare he ask for face in front of me? I, Ma Jiuye, would never give him that."

"I..."

Tao Wei lowered his head, too frightened to say another word.

Niu Haotian, mustering his courage, said, "Grandpa, my father is Niu Bao, the owner of Hailong Hotel. Can you..."

Before he could finish, Ma Jiuye slapped him across the face. "A hotel owner? What right do you have to speak to me?"

Niu Haotian also knelt down with a thud, losing all the confidence of a young master.

Yang Xu still harbored a glimmer of hope and said with a fawning smile, "Grandpa, my father is Yang Wu, under the command of Xu Dalong in the West City..."

"Xu Yang? Even he wouldn't dare to cause trouble here, let alone the son of a lackey. Shut up and kneel down!"

Under Ma Jiuye's authority, Yang Xu didn't hesitate and immediately knelt beside Niu Haotian.

The three who had been so arrogant moments ago now knelt in a row, without the right to speak.

Ma Jiuye then turned his gaze to Ye Bufan and the others. Although Shi Yuting was afraid and nervous, she still gritted her teeth and said, "Let my friend go, or I'll call the police."

Ma Jiuye coldly laughed, "You naive girl, threatening me with the police."

The lights in the VIP room were bright, and the bald man saw Shi Yuting's face, which was even more beautiful than the provocatively dressed Huang Xiaoli. He said with a lecherous smile, "Cousin, I like this girl too. Can I have her tonight?"

Ma Jiuye said indifferently, "Just a woman. What's the difference between one or two? If you want her, take her."

With that, he gestured, and two bodyguards immediately moved towards Shi Yuting.

The bald man beamed, "Thank you, Cousin!"

Seeing the bodyguards approach, Shi Yuting called out nervously, "What are you going to do? Don't come any closer!"

But as a woman, she had no way to resist the tall, muscular men in black.

At that moment, Han Shuai stepped forward and spread his arms in front of Shi Yuting, "Stop! As long as I'm here, no one can touch her."

The two bodyguards stopped, clearly waiting for Ma Jiuye's next command.

At this point, Ye Bufan called to Tao Wei, who was kneeling, "Mr. Tao, you wanted to compete with Han Shuai for Yuting. Why don't you show her what you're made of now?"

He was there to help his friend and knew how to give Han Shuai the best support.

Seeing Ma Jiuye's gaze turn to him, Tao Wei trembled and quickly said, "Grandpa, please don't misunderstand. That woman is just a friend. I have no deep relationship with her. You can do whatever you want."

Seeing Tao Wei's cowardly and fearful demeanor, Shi Yuting felt a deep disgust.

Compared to Han Shuai, who was willing to risk his life for her, the difference between the two was obvious.

Ma Jiuye turned his gaze back to Han Shuai and said coldly, "No one can defy my orders. You have two choices: get out of the way or die!"

Han Shuai's body was trembling, clearly very afraid, but he still said firmly, "As long as I'm here, no one can hurt Yuting!"

"Really, you won't learn until you see the coffin!"

A look of disdain flashed in Ma Jiuye's eyes. "Break his limbs and throw him into the sea to feed the fish!"

The two bodyguards beside him immediately lunged at Han Shuai.

Han Shuai was just an ordinary person, with no knowledge of martial arts or taekwondo. But to protect the woman he loved, he gritted his teeth and punched out with all his might.

To his surprise, his punches hit nothing, and there was no sound of impact.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw the two tall men, each over 1.9 meters, flying out and landing several meters away.

He looked at his fists in amazement. Could he have developed some special ability? That was impossible!

At that moment, a clear voice rang out beside him, "As long as I'm here, no one can touch my brother!"

He turned to see Ye Bufan standing calmly beside him.

"Old Three, run. This has nothing to do with you."

Ye Bufan said calmly, "What are you talking about? You're my brother, and your problem is my problem."

Seeing his two subordinates easily defeated, Ma Jiuye's face darkened. He looked coldly at Ye Bufan and said, "So you're a martial artist. But I, Ma Jiuye, am not someone to be trifled with.

A Bao, teach this kid a lesson!"
