Zhang Qin Feng slowly opened his eyes after listening to the chain of notices.

'What is the time now? I wonder if Yufei is still busy with her restaurant...' Zhang Qin Feng pressed the power button on his smartphone. He felt it was somewhat weird for him to not get a single call from Wang Yufei for the entire evening.

'Did something happened?' he immediately dialed Wang Yufei's number while changing to a different set of jeans and a long-sleeve Polo-T.

(The number you have dialed cannot be reached at the moment... Please dial again later.)

'This is weird...' Zhang Qin Feng takes a peek outside through his studio's window and notices nothing out of the ordinary. Feeling somewhat uneasy in his mind, he decided to make a trip over to Wang Yufei's restaurant to have a look.

...

"Girl, why are you being so stubborn?" a man said as he placed his leg on top of Wang Yufei's table. Behind him stands the restaurant hostess of Wang Yufei's Manyue Restaurant. Her hands were clearly shaking as she massaged the man's stiff shoulder.

"Just sign the agreement made by Wu-Ge, and we'll be on our own way after this. The compensation is not too low either, so what makes you reject this offer over and over again?" he continued.

"Sob... Sob... The Manyue Restaurant is my effort. I will not give it up even if you killed me." tears roll down from her bruised cheek as Wang Yufei replied to that man's question. Two prints are clearly seen on her face, along with some blood on the corner of her lips.

It appears that she had been slapped and beaten by the thugs in her office. Her tears ended up as concrete proof that she was struggling to keep the pain to herself.

"Bo - Boss... Why don't you just sign the agreement... Everyone is still outside..." the restaurant hostess stuttered as she persuades her boss to sign the agreement.

"Look. Even your workers advised you to sign the agreement. Why are you still getting so stubborn? No matter what, we're going to get this signed today. Wu-Ge already said that we're allowed to take any action necessary to get this contract signed, so don't blame us if we had to get rough with you." said the man.

"I'm sure you know what we'll do if we get too frustrated, correct?" the man suddenly pulled the restaurant hostess to his lap and fondled her breast. His action was like a beast in heat as he kept the smugness on his face.

"Pretty good... Since there's no ring on your finger, I'm sure you've yet to get married, correct? What about letting this Gui-Ge take care of you? I won't boast myself too much, but satisfying you on the bed twice a day won't be a problem." he added.

"Ah! Help me!" the restaurant hostess struggled. Being sexually abused out of sudden traumatized her as her tears rolling down from the corner of her eyes.

"Stop it, you beast!" Wang Yufei shouts as she struggled to free herself from the two thugs by her side. But her struggle ended up pointless when she dislocates her shoulder bone from moving around.

"Feng... Help me... Feng..." Wang Yufei fell on the floor and cried. No matter how strong is a woman like her, there'll be a time when she felt hopeless.

...

Sprinting almost twenty or so minutes to the Suihe (South) Manyue Restaurant, Zhang Qin Feng's worry came true when he noticed a few thugs outside the restaurant.

'Something must have gone wrong! It's 11:30pm right now, so how can a restaurant that was supposed to be close an hour ago still had all its lights lit?' Zhang Qin Feng picked up his steps towards the entrance.

"Hey! The restaurant is..." a thug flicked the cigarette in between his fingers off as he tried to stop Zhang Qin Feng from getting inside the restaurant. But before he managed to get a hold of Zhang Qin Feng's shoulder, a hand came to his neck and pressed him down on the ground.

**Bam!**

Zhang Qin Feng gave him a jab right on his face and took this pitiful thug down in a flash. His action was done swiftly and decisively, to the point the other two thugs were still taking a puff from their cigarette.

"What the!" that's all they managed to say before they were taken out by Zhang Qin Feng ruthlessly.

Entering the restaurant that he visited a few times before now felt like coming into a den of wolves as the ground floor was swarming with the thugs.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Brothers! Get him!"

A fight immediately started as things started to get rowdier. It was a battle royale-style where two to three people will be taken down in exchange for four to five punches all over him.

The fight last close to half an hour before Zhang Qin Feng walked up the stairs slowly.

Worst of all, his opponent on the second floor was even harder to beat as all of them were veteran fighters with years of experience in a street fight.

"Brat! You must be tired of your life! How dare you come by yourself to fight with our Xuanwu Gang!" one of the thugs came forward with a knuckleduster on both hands.

"Least talk. Bring it on if you want." Zhang Qin Feng positioned both his fists around his eye level and adjusted his stance into one of the eighteen martial techniques.

'Stein... What's my winning percentage?' Zhang Qin Feng whispered.

[Toot!]

[86%]

"Great!"Zhang Qin Feng smiled.
