Chapter 1831 - 1892: Won’t Live Much Longer
Li Yifei chuckled, showing his white teeth, and slightly squinted his eyes, saying, "I’ll say it one last time. If he apologizes, we’ll let this go today, and I won’t pursue it further. Otherwise, we’ll have to sort this out properly."Damn, damn, Qin Muchu felt like his body couldn’t take it anymore. He genuinely wanted to call Li Yifei "grandpa" as long as he’d stop and not make more trouble. My god, that person even has Boss Huang nodding and bowing to him, and you’re threatening him now? Are you just eager to die?
Master Li, can we not play like this? Could we ’show some mercy’ and let that kid go? You’ve brought this on yourself, can’t you not drag me into it? Qin Muchu truly regretted coming today. Wouldn’t it have been better to stay at work and take a nap instead of playing cool in front of these people and inviting them to such a place for lunch?
Yin Feng’er also covered her mouth with both hands, afraid she might scream. Seeing Song Lianyao’s husband make such a scene, Yin Feng’er knew it was over today. Not only was it over for Li Yifei and Song Lianyao, but she’d also dragged Qin Muchu into it, and after this, she and Qin Muchu would be done as well...
The people around them all gasped, and even those tending to the elderly man who had an episode looked up, peering through the crowd at Li Yifei and Wang Chao.
Elder Su’s granddaughter, Su Lio, released her grip on Elder Su’s hand, stood up and walked back. Her pretty face seemed to have a layer of frost. Her grandfather was like this, yet someone still dared to cause trouble here. Su Lio couldn’t help but wish to erase Li Yifei from the earth right now. As for Li Xiang’s issue, Su Lio didn’t care much. She did have a slight rebuke for Li Xiang crashing into people directly instead of dodging like her, but she had no time to think about these things now.
Su Lio quickly walked back, glanced at Li Xiang, and said to Li Yifei, "Please let go of Li Xiang. My uncle already told you, my grandfather suddenly fell ill today. If treatment is delayed and something happens, I assure you, you’re done for as well!"
Li Yifei looked back at Su Lio and said, "There are many people in this world who dare to threaten me, but those who can actually finish me off aren’t born yet. However, I’m a reasonable man. Your grandfather got sick and wanted to clear this place. I didn’t say anything, just grabbed my bag and left. If he hadn’t bumped into my wife, none of this would’ve happened. So, it’s easy. Just have this person apologize to my wife, and it’s settled."
Su Lio felt her breath catch. She thought she’d reasoned with Li Yifei well, yet he still refused to let it go, leaving her feeling embarrassed. Su Lio slightly squinted her eyes, reaching behind her waist, where she always carried a soft sword that she could use as a belt. Whenever needed, she could draw it out. If this person in front of her continued making trouble, she wouldn’t hesitate to subdue him.
Li Xiang’s face was flushed as he knelt at a man’s feet in front of Su Lio. He had never experienced such humiliation in his life. After hearing Li Yifei’s words, Li Xiang stiffened his neck, turned red, and shouted at Li Yifei, "Go ahead and kill me if you can. My grandfather won’t let you get away with it!"
"Hah!" Li Yifei lifted his leg and kicked Li Xiang in the chest, cutting off whatever he was about to say. It was a skilled kick, striking Li Xiang’s chest, causing half of his body to go numb and collapse.
"You!" Su Lio swiftly drew her soft sword. It was about 1.5 centimeters wide and over half a meter long, extremely thin—possibly just a few millimeters thick. Though it looked soft, in Su Lio’s hand, it suddenly straightened.
Li Yifei was curious about their identities. These weren’t just ordinary martial art practitioners; they were hidden masters. In fact, Su Lio’s skill was even higher than that middle-aged man who spoke earlier.
The people around saw Su Lio draw her sword, all eyes twitching. Today’s spectacle seemed to grow grander. Ordinary people wouldn’t carry swords, as this wasn’t a TV drama. Yet, seeing a woman stunningly beautiful draw a strangely shaped sword from her waist thrilled them.
Some were tense and afraid they might faint, like Qin Muchu, seeing the beauty whom Manager Huang respects greatly point a sword at Li Yifei, making Qin Muchu feel faint.
But would this sword reach Li Yifei? That’s the question.
Li Yifei didn’t dodge, glancing at the soft sword, and then turned back to Song Lianyao and said, "Honey, you go wait there first, so you won’t get hurt if a fight breaks out."
Song Lianyao even nodded, stood on her toes to peck Li Yifei on his cheek, and said, "Okay, darling, be careful."
Damn, damn, damn, Qin Muchu cursed repeatedly in his heart. Yin Feng’er, is this friend of yours truly foolish or just plain stupid? At such a critical moment, the woman wasn’t trying to stop him but was encouraging him to make trouble?
The surrounding people also wanted to roll their eyes. Even if the couple were recklessly bold, their courage was a little too big. The characters even those who roam Ying City with impunity must serve cautiously, yet you’re confronting them directly?
They were speechless, feeling that words had become inadequate.
Song Lianyao stepped back without hesitation, quickly standing aside. Instead, it left Su Lio and the others feeling uneasy. They had met arrogant people before, and also those who didn’t know their own limits, but this man and woman in front of them didn’t seem like they had mental problems. Why would they dare to confront us head-on?
"Who exactly are you?" Su Lio ultimately didn’t draw her sword first. Despite being only twenty-five years old, she wasn’t arrogant like ordinary disciples. She was skilled and also intelligent. Though she was angry and anxious, she remained patient, prepared to give Li Yifei another chance.
"And who are you?" Li Yifei retorted.
Wang Chao’s face was uncertain. He was also unsure. From his gut feeling, he was certain the man before him had no cultivation, lacking the aura of a master. However, his steady demeanor was undeniably something to be taken seriously.
Su Lio’s sword still pointed at Li Yifei, and she gave her final ultimatum, "Since you refuse to back down, then today you’ll have to face my sword."
"Everyone else, get out!" Huang Zicong suddenly commanded. He noticed that many people around were watching the spectacle. Although he knew today’s incident would inevitably spread, he absolutely would not allow these people to continue watching the events unfold. So, with one shout, the security guards immediately moved to drive everyone, including Qin Muchu, out of the room. A group of security guards stood at the door, glaring.
Before leaving the room, Qin Muchu turned his head to glance at Li Yifei. Seeing him still unperturbed, Qin Muchu felt his legs go weak.
In the hall, one group surrounded the unconscious elder, while another surrounded Li Yifei. Song Lianyao stood there alone, left alone and unattended, so she pulled over a chair and sat down.
"Before making a move, I still want to ask a question." Li Yifei suddenly spoke up, almost making Su Lio, who was about to catch her breath and make a move, stumble. She was already poised to act.
"Speak!"
Li Yifei, however, wasn’t addressing Su Lio but was looking at Li Xiang, who was still kneeling on the ground. He said, "Are you sure you won’t apologize?"
"You dare insult me, you dare insult the Li family. I swear, if I survive today, I will inevitably kill your whole family in the future." Li Xiang wanted to appear tough, but when he saw a streak of cold light shoot from Li Yifei’s eyes, piercing to the bone, he felt an almost trembling sensation. The feeling was so terrifying that Li Xiang even began to regret his words.
"Fine, very well, Li Xiang, is it? I don’t care which Li family you belong to. Dare to say such words, your fate is already sealed." Li Yifei instead smiled, raised his head, and looked at Su Lio. He asked, "Are you with him?"
Su Lio’s brows furrowed deeply. Hearing Li Yifei’s words, she shook her head instinctively. But quickly feeling that it undermined her momentum, she straightened her chest and said, "What if I am? What if I’m not?"
"If you are, then all of you, including the old man, stay here today. Call your family to come pick you up. If not, I’ll give you a prescription today that can temporarily keep the old man’s life. Otherwise, even if you send him to the hospital, he’ll only live for another hour or two." Li Yifei said calmly.
Upon hearing the first part, many people, including Su Lio, wanted to make a move. But upon hearing the latter part, Su Lio’s hand holding the sword trembled slightly. Her face changed as she asked, "You’re lying, my grandfather won’t die!"
On the contrary, Wang Chao paused, looking at Li Yifei and asking, "Are you sure?"
Li Yifei glanced at him and said, "Damaged heart meridian, old chronic injury, and somehow poisoned again, infiltrating the meridians. How could an ordinary doctor cure that?"
Thud, a man who was watching over the elderly person immediately stood up and walked towards Li Yifei. Every step he took sent a dull thud through the ground, as if an elephant was walking rather than a man. He even cracked a few tiles on the hotel’s floor. When he arrived in front of Li Yifei, he stopped and said, "My name is Ma Han. Although I don’t know who you are, if you have a way to save my father, I can guarantee that today’s incident will be overlooked, and no one from the Su family will give you trouble."
"Haha." Li Yifei laughed dismissively. This Ma Han also had some cultivation, but he was just a beginner who didn’t know how to conceal it. Those few steps just now revealed it all. Although it wasn’t clear what he was cultivating, his inability to control his aura in his haste showed he was far from proficient.
Li Yifei naturally wasn’t afraid of him, so after he finished laughing, he said, "Are you sure you want to speak to me like this?"
