Chương 8: Chapter 8: Can You Bear It?_1
Emily's intention was very simple.
She wanted to push Ethan to the forefront of River City! She also wanted Sylvia to know that Ethan was not a worthless loser!
Of course, if Ethan couldn't withstand the pressure, then Emily would naturally give up on him.
...
In the evening, Ethan was carrying a bunch of herbs, preparing to go home.
Just as he reached the entrance of the residential area, he was surprised to find Emily standing there.
She was dressed in a white dress, her long hair lifted by the breeze, causing anyone who passed by to take a second look.
Seeing this, Ethan hurried over.
"Miss Emily, what are you doing here?" Ethan asked.
Emily rolled her eyes and said, "Of course, I'm here to see you."
This made Ethan feel flattered, and he scratched his head, not knowing how to continue the conversation.
"What's that in your hand?" At this moment, Emily looked at the herbs in his hand.
"Ah, these are some Chinese herbs I bought," Ethan said.
Emily took the herbs from Ethan's hand and joked, "What's this, Doctor Ethan is going to treat someone?"
Ethan scratched his head and laughed, "Not to treat anyone, I don't know how to explain it to you..."
Emily sniffed the herbs and laughed, "These herbs seem to have lost their potency, right? Why did you buy them?"
Ethan opened his mouth but didn't know how to explain for a moment.
"No money to buy?" Emily blinked, seemingly seeing through Ethan's embarrassment.
Ethan nodded, looking extremely awkward.
Emily chuckled and threw the herbs into the trash can.
"I'll give you some another day," Emily said with a smile.
Ethan quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, Miss Emily, I already owe you too much..."
Emily rolled her eyes and said, "You can pay me back when you get rich later."
Ethan smiled bitterly, "What if I never get rich..."
"Stop talking nonsense," Emily patted Ethan's head.
"I think you'll definitely be extraordinary in the future," Emily said with her bright eyes sincerely fixed on Ethan.
This almost brought tears to Ethan's eyes.
From childhood, almost everyone had determined that Ethan was a good-for-nothing, and no one had ever affirmed him like this.
Now hearing Emily's words, Ethan felt heartfelt gratitude.
"Miss Emily, thank you," Ethan said, rubbing his eyes and looking moved.
Emily joked, "Big boys shouldn't cry so easily."
"Okay!" Ethan nodded vigorously.
Just then, a van suddenly sped over from a distance!
The van stopped steadily in front of Ethan, and then, a dozen men wielding clubs jumped out!
The leader was a bald middle-aged man with a distinctive scar on his face!
This man was the notorious Ray Walters, also known as Brother Tiger!
"Miss Emily, you should go back first," Ethan hurriedly said to Emily.
Emily looked at the group of men but showed no fear.
"Are these people here for you?" Emily asked curiously.
Ethan said anxiously, "Miss Emily, I'll explain later, you should leave quickly!"
Emily laughed, "Oh, I'm a woman, they won't do anything to me."
Ethan was extremely anxious and instinctively protected Emily behind him.
Seeing Ethan's action, Emily felt a warmth in her heart and her impression of Ethan improved even more.
She hid behind Ethan and secretly watched the group of men.
Soon, Ray Walters approached Ethan with his men.
Holding a club, he looked Ethan up and down and said, "Are you the one who beat up Gary Brown?"
Ethan took a deep breath and tried to speak neither humbly nor arrogantly, "He provoked me first."
Ray Walters said impatiently, "Cut the crap, he hit you because you deserved it, and you should just take it!"
Ethan said coldly, "There's no such logic in this world!"
"Hahaha!" Hearing this, Ray Walters and his lackeys burst into laughter.
"Big brother, this kid got a screw loose, right? Logic? What the fuck kind of bullshit logic?"
"That's right, our Brother Tiger is the logic!"
Ray Walters patted Ethan's shoulder and sneered, "Kid, let me tell you, whoever has the power is the logic!"
Anger appeared on Ethan's face, but facing a dozen men, he had no ability to fight back.
Ray Walters looked at Ethan with a playful expression and sneered, "How about this, you kneel down and kowtow to me, and I might consider sparing you, how about that?"
Ethan glared at Ray Walters and shouted, "In your dreams!"
"In my dreams?" Ray Walters's face instantly turned cold.
He waved his hand, and his men immediately stepped forward.
"Then I'll break your legs and make you kneel for life!" Ray Walters shouted fiercely!
"Can you bear to see him kneel?"
Just then, a girl's voice rang out from behind Ethan.
Then, Emily was seen staring playfully at Ray Walters.
Ethan was shocked and said urgently, "Ray Walters, this matter started because of me, it has nothing to do with her!"
"Miss Emily, please leave quickly!" Ethan said somewhat frantically.
Emily shook her head, just staring coldly at Ray Walters.
Seeing Emily in front of him, Ray Walters rubbed his eyes hard.
When he saw Emily's face clearly, his expression instantly turned extremely ugly, and his body shuddered violently!
