Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 451: Personally Taking Action

"Forgotten!" Mu Qiancheng replied coolly, then looked at Gong Hai and said, "Mr. Gong, your people are no match. Do you want to handle it yourself?"

"Ah Hai?" Ming Lan hid in fear behind Gong Hai, never expecting Mu Qiancheng to be so ruthless. In just a few moves, he had dealt with Gong Hai’s men.

"Don’t worry, I’m here!" Gong Hai gently patted Ming Lan’s hand, signaling her not to worry, and then walked towards Mu Qiancheng.

Mu Qiancheng looked at him calmly, waiting for him to make a move. However, Gong Hai didn’t strike immediately and instead said, "I heard you defeated my brother?"

"Your brother?" Mu Qiancheng looked at Gong Hai, a little puzzled.

Jiang Xue recalled that Brother Long from the other day and reminded, "The one from the mountains!"

Mu Qiancheng suddenly remembered that Brother Long did resemble Gong Hai. No wonder one was called Gong Hai, and the other Gong Long; they were brothers.

"What does Mr. Gong want to say?"

"Nothing much. I heard you’re quite formidable, but I wonder if you really are."

"You can give it a try!"

"Alright then, I’ll give it a try."

"But we must agree beforehand. If you win, you can take Jiang Xue away. But if you lose, not only must Jiang Xue stay, but you’ll also have to leave an arm behind."

As soon as Gong Hai set his conditions, Jiang Xue’s expression turned grim. This Gong Hai was simply too excessive, even asking for Mu Qiancheng’s arm—absolutely shameless.

However, Mu Qiancheng was not as agitated as Jiang Xue, and asked calmly, "What if you lose?"

"If I lose, I’ll never bother you again." Gong Hai said earnestly, but Mu Qiancheng didn’t look at him, instead addressing Ming Lan, "Can you control your woman?"

This was all instigated by Ming Lan. What if she found someone else to cause trouble in the future? He didn’t want any lingering threats.

"Naturally!" Gong Hai glanced at Ming Lan and replied. However, Ming Lan clearly didn’t want to cooperate with Gong Hai and was eager to protest, "Ah Hai..."

But before she could finish, Gong Hai interrupted her, saying, "Lan’er, listen to me."

"But?" Ming Lan was unwilling, she didn’t want to let Jiang Xue or Mu Qiancheng off so easily. Yet Gong Hai wanted to resolve the issue peacefully—how could that be? Was her fight in vain?

At this moment, Ming Lan didn’t even realize that it was she who instigated the trouble, and she who first lashed out.

"Lan’er!" Gong Hai gave Ming Lan a stern look. He disliked disobedient women. Although she was once his dream in his youth, he could not tolerate her challenging his authority.

"Mr. Gong, do you want to reconsider? Mrs. Jiang doesn’t seem very satisfied with your arrangements." Mu Qiancheng looked at Gong Hai mockingly, clearly doubting his words.

"Rest assured, I never go back on my words." Gong Hai’s expression soured at Mu Qiancheng’s comment, and after giving Ming Lan a hard look, he extended his hand, saying, "Please!"

"Alright!" Mu Qiancheng smiled, then extended his hand as well, assuming a battle-ready stance.

Soon, the two began to spar. Compared to Gong Long, Gong Hai’s attacks were quite cunning, initially making it difficult for Mu Qiancheng to handle.

However, after a few moves, he got more adept, gradually becoming more at ease.
