Romantic Medical Immortal

Chapter 407: Worse Than Animals

"My God! They’re the ones getting beaten up! Serves them right!"

"Who says otherwise! They’re always causing trouble, now they’ve hit a hard wall!"

No one felt sympathy for the bloodied few, rather they were thrilled.

The local businesses have been harassed by these people; even when Wang Hai was around, they were forced to pay protection fees, but now these people don’t dare openly ask for money, so they just mooch off the stores or walk away with things.

Because these hooligans worked under Liu Xuan, nobody dared offend them, fearing they’d be chased out of Willowleaf Village, so they could only put up with it.

"Brother Xuan, you’ve got to stand up for us! That bastard beat us to death!"

The tattooed guy was beaten the worst, lost two teeth, and now spoke with a lisp.

"Yeah! Brother Xuan, he came to Willowleaf Village to beat people up, clearly disrespecting you. You have to teach this kid a lesson."

The men struggled to get up from the ground, pointing at Yang Cheng in the distance with loud accusations.

Liu Xuan finally came to his senses, lifted his eyes to look at Yang Cheng, and was taken aback.

"Yang Cheng?"

"Brother Xuan, seems like you’re doing pretty well lately."

Yang Cheng smirked, his tone somewhat sardonic.

Liu Xuan immediately turned red with embarrassment; he didn’t expect his subordinates to start a fight with Yang Cheng.

"Stop shaming me, what exactly happened?"

He hurried to Yang Cheng’s side to ask.

"These guys tried to kidnap women in broad daylight and demanded I kneel to apologize, so I taught them a little lesson on how to be decent."

Yang Cheng summarized the situation in a single sentence.

Liu Xuan exploded with anger, walked over, and fiercely kicked the tattooed guy, yelling, "Did you treat everything I told you before like nothing?"

"Ah!"

The tattooed guy screamed, looking at Liu Xuan in terror, trying to explain, "Brother Xuan, we just wanted to meet some beautiful women, nothing else."

Even if he’s dumb, he could see Liu Xuan knew the young man, and their relationship seemed good.

"Is your brain connected to your nether regions? All you think about is that stupid crap, if you want women, work hard, earn money, and get married instead of hitting on others everywhere!"

"Earlier, someone complained to me because you harassed a store clerk; after you kneeled and apologized, I agreed to give you another chance, yet you dare touch my brother’s woman!"

Liu Xuan was utterly furious; it wasn’t easy for Yang Cheng to come to Willowleaf Village for a visit, only to encounter this, making it seem like he allowed these punks to run amok.

"Brother?"

Wu Yong’s eyes widened, staring at Yang Cheng, feeling increasingly uneasy.

It’s over!

This guy must be coming for him!

Feeling guilty, he quietly climbed up, trying to sneak away.

"Yang Cheng, I’m sorry, it’s my poor management."

Liu Xuan quickly apologized.

"Don’t apologize yet, wait a bit, or everyone’s going to run."

Yang Cheng glanced behind Liu Xuan, who turned his head and indeed saw the sneaky Wu Yong.

"Hold him down for me!"

With his command, the people around him immediately acted, forcefully pinning Wu Yong to the ground.

"Ah! Ow! Easy, what are you doing!"

Wu Yong grimaced in pain, but without Liu Xuan’s orders, they definitely wouldn’t let go.

"Boss Liu, our little Yong is wrong, but he just tried to talk them down, we old couple kept stopping him, my wife even got pushed down by them."

The noodle shop owner hurriedly explained.

"Wu Yong didn’t offend for this matter but another; I came to Willowleaf Village today to find him."

Yang Cheng spoke calmly.

At these words, the old couple’s faces changed drastically, and they kneeled before Yang Cheng, wailing, "Young man, please spare our son, whatever he owes you, we’ll pay back, just don’t chop off his hand!"

"Give us some time, we can sell the noodle shop, whatever money we get, we’ll give it all to you, and as for the remaining amount, we’ll slowly repay, just let the kid go."

The old couple thought Yang Cheng came to collect a debt, quickly kneeling to plead for leniency.

The onlookers couldn’t help but sigh at this scene.

"This Wu Yong is really a wastrel, owes so much from gambling, even pushed his parents’ savings into it!"

"Something worse than an animal! He’s bound to bleed his parents dry sooner or later."

Seeing the old couple kneeling, Yang Cheng hurriedly reached to lift them up, "You’ve got it wrong, I’m not here to collect a debt."

"Then you are?"

The old couple looked at Yang Cheng, their eyes particularly pitiful.

Yang Cheng sighed, "He used to work at my factory, I’m just here to talk with him about work, you don’t need to worry."

"So that’s it."

The couple breathed a sigh of relief, supporting each other as they sat down.

Yang Cheng strode over to Wu Yong, lowered his voice, "We’ll settle our account later, if you still have any humanity, stay put and don’t worry your parents."

Wu Yong trembled with fear, nodding furiously like a pecking chicken.

"Yang Cheng, how do you want to handle these guys?"

Liu Xuan pointed at the hooligans.

"You’re in charge of this area, obviously you’ll handle it, but let me tell you something, as a leader, you can’t be too lenient, some people aren’t worth pitying."

Yang Cheng spoke earnestly, patting Liu Xuan on the shoulder.

"You’re right, they’re just dogs who can’t change their ways, no matter how many chances they get."

After Liu Xuan spoke, he waved to those around him.

"Take them to the nearby hospital, I’ll cover the medical expenses, but they won’t be allowed to set foot in Willowleaf Village again!"

Upon hearing this, the hooligans immediately began wailing.

Working with Liu Xuan occasionally brought extra income, and Liu Xuan was generous, never treating them poorly. Leaving Willowleaf Village meant they couldn’t find good jobs, more importantly, their homes were here.

"Brother Xuan, we know we were wrong, we won’t dare again."

The men quickly acknowledged their mistakes, but it was too late as Liu Xuan’s people took them away.

"Good! Finally, these parasites have been dealt with!"

The spectators clapped enthusiastically.

Liu Xuan felt a wave of self-blame, never realizing his subordinates were so disliked, evident in how much harm they’d done routinely.

Clearly, he needed to intensify management of his subordinates in the future, never tolerating any fundamental mistakes.

Knowing Yang Cheng would talk with Wu Yong, Liu Xuan suggested, "Yang Cheng, let’s chat at my place, it’s not convenient here."

"Alright, then let’s go."

Yang Cheng nodded, striding over to grab Wu Yong by the collar and head out.
