Yang Ming showed considerable appreciation for Jing Xiaolu’s tolerance. However, for Jing Xiaolu’s past behavior, Yang Ming did not have much resistance. After all, not so long ago, he was just like Jing Xiaolu; he was a little punk that mingled in the underworld. Yang Ming always itched for someone to fight with him. Naturally, when he encountered such a situation, he would not let go.

Now, Yang Ming had matured, and he made light of such people.

The bald-headed young man saw Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu sitting at an ordinary dining table on the side, and he became inexpressibly smug. When his girlfriend, Xiao Hong, came over, he couldn’t help but say, “How about it? I am amazing, right?”

“Too amazing. It’s not often that this couple’s swing is available!” Xiao Hong said excitedly.

“Hey, there were two stupid people who wanted to sit here, but I grabbed it!” The bald-headed young man pointed to Jing Xiaolu and Yang Ming over there. “That’s them, the two good-for-nothing people. They don’t even dare to fart. I really don’t know if the man has guts or not!”

The tolerance shown by Yang Ming made the bald-headed young man even more unscrupulous. In his opinion, Yang Ming did not say anything before, and he dared not say anything now either.

“The woman is pretty good-looking. It’s a waste for her to follow this man!” After Xiao Hong listened and agreed as she looked adoringly at the bald-headed young man.

Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu were seated not far away, and they clearly heard the conversation between the bald-headed young man and Xiao Hong. His own tolerance was said to be good-for-nothing, which made Yang Ming wonder whether he should laugh or cry. He frowned.

However, Jing Xiaolu really couldn’t stand it anymore! Yang Ming is a good-for-nothing? It’s a joke! Yang Ming’s indifference made her even angrier. Previously in the school cafeteria, Yang Ming poured porridge on her face; he pretended to be this nice gentleman here. Xiao Xiaolu couldn’t stand it anymore. She slammed the table and looked at the bald-headed young man and Xiao Hong. “Hey, mind your language. I didn’t want to argue with you, and yet you really take yourself as a big shot?”

“Hui? It turns out to be a pretty boy. Letting the woman help stick up for you, you really don’t have guts!” Jing Xiaolu’s anger did not make the bald-headed young man afraid but made him more arrogant.

In his opinion, Yang Ming was really soft, soft to the point where he let the woman help stick up for him.

As Jing Xiaolu listened to the guy who was talking even more offensively, she trembled in anger. She took the cup of sundae on the table and threw it towards the bald-headed young man’s head. However, the bald-headed young man was very responsive. He smiled and dodged it. “How is it? Brother’s skills are good, right?”

Yang Ming initially didn’t want to care about this person, but seeing that this guy really needed to be taught a lesson, he said faintly, “Xiaolu, you don’t throw things like that.”

As he said that, he picked up a piece of remaining chicken bone that Jing Xiaolu left on the table after eating, and seemingly threw it to the bald-headed young man casually.

The bald-headed young man did not care but looked at Yang Ming with contempt. What use can this chicken bone have? He thought that Yang Ming would suddenly make a big hit, but he still turned out to be soft and only knew how to play a little trick.

Seeing Yang Ming raise his hand, the bald-headed young man subconsciously tilted his head to the side, just like when he previously dodged Jing Xiaolu’s cup of sundae. It’s just unfortunate that he did not avoid this chicken bone, because it landed in the middle of his left eyeball. Suddenly, his eyes were filled with stars, and he was in extreme pain. He covered his eye as he cried, “Ao ao.”

Yang Ming naturally grasped his strength well. Otherwise, with his usual strength, the left eye of the bald-headed young man would have been crippled. Yang Ming did not have any deep-seated hatred with him, so he only slightly punished him.

Just when the bald-headed young man dodged the cup of the sundae that Jing Xiaolu had thrown, Yang Ming had already grasped the speed and direction of the bald-headed young man’s dodge.

Generally speaking, for a person who was not professionally trained, when he dodged the attack of a foreign object, he will instinctively dodge to the left or right. His strength and speed of the dodge are roughly the same.

After all, this is an instinctive reaction involving a subconscious habit, not something that could be deliberately cultivated.

The bald-headed young man reacted like most people, subconsciously dodging their bodies to the right, which was the same as all those who used their right hand, except for left-handers.

Of course, Yang Ming, who was also a professionally trained assassin, was an exception. Yang Ming could randomly choose the direction of the dodging and adjust the speed of his dodge according to the direction from which the unknown object come.

Therefore, Yang Ming had taken advantage of the direction and speed of the bald-headed young man’s dodge. He also knew the speed at which he threw the chicken bone. Moreover, his special abilities allowed him to visualize accurately the distance between himself and the young man.

As a result, Yang Ming could accurately predict the trajectory of the bald-headed young man’s movement, and then precisely have the chicken bone hit the left eye of the bald-headed young man.

Jing Xiaolu was very surprised. It was obvious that the bald-headed young man had already dodged, but he was still hit by Yang Ming! However, no matter what, her anger was vented. Yang Ming was still the same Yang Ming; although he was calmer than before, he would not let others bully his women.

Jing Xiaolu felt good about upgrading herself to Yang Ming’s woman, and she smiled happily.

Although the bald-headed young man was not some big shot, he often visited entertainment venues such as the Didi Bar, so he definitely had been in numerous fights. Therefore, when Yang Ming made a move, the bald-headed young man knew that he really met a master today!

Such a small piece of chicken bone was used to hit him, and the strength was still so strong. The bald-headed young man was not a fool; he knew that he had misjudged today. He quickly lowered his head and dared not to say anything more.

That woman called Xiao Hong, seeing that her boyfriend was beaten, was somewhat unsatisfied. However, seeing that her boyfriend did not dare to make a sound, she also knew that they could not afford to provoke the other person.

Xiao Hong was very clear that the bald-headed young man was a guy who preys on the weak and fears the strong. In fact, all punks had this kind of character, preying on the weak and fearing the strong. They would nod their heads and bow to those who were better than them, and trample on those who were not as powerful as them.

“Hey! Compensate me for a cup of sundae!” Jing Xiaolu used to be a person in the underworld. Naturally, she saw that the bald-headed young man was timid, and she was very excited. She thought about it and felt that she should get back her face again.

Yang Ming heard Jing Xiaolu’s words and laughed a little involuntarily. Sure enough, this little girl is unforgiving. Previously in the school cafeteria, I had Jing Xiaolu’s boyfriend to compensate me for a tray of buns. Now Jing Xiaolu actually used this trick to deal with others.

However, because this was learned from Yang Ming, Yang Ming really found it inappropriate to stop and tell off Jing Xiaolu.

Xiao Hong was obviously unhappy at Jing Xiaolu’s request, but the bald-headed man stood up with bitterness in his eyes. He went to the counter and bought a cup of sundae for Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu, then he placed it on Jing Xiaolu’s table.

Although he was extremely unhappy in his heart, he had such a characteristic; that is, he was very adaptive. No matter how unsatisfied you are, if others are more vicious than you, you have to put up an act and endure.

The bald-headed young man could bear it, but Xiao Hong couldn’t anymore. She secretly took out her mobile phone, typed a message, and sent it out.

Ge Xinyao was lingering with Bi Hai at the moment when the notification of a text from her mobile phone sounded. Ge Xinyao reluctantly took the phone and read the text message.

“What is it?” Bi Hai asked. He was working night shifts in the neighborhood today. Logically, as the manager of the security department, he could totally not work night shifts. There were other security guards on duty.

However, Ge Xinyao came today, and Bi Hai had a separate duty room, so he stayed on and spent some alone time with Ge Xinyao. He could also get some extra wages from working overtime.

“A sister who I used to hang out with. She often went to your previous place and is facing some trouble. She wants to ask me to help her settle it.” Ge Xinyao explained, “Let’s not care about her.”

“Oh? Looking for you? Why is she looking for you?” asked Bi Hai.

“I promised to look out for her before, but now, we are no longer working in that place. Why should I care about her?” explained Ge Xinyao.

“Brother Yang said that one must conduct oneself with trust. You promised her, so naturally, you have to help. At least, you can help her once!” Bi Hai said, “So, let me bring a few people to go with you. Let’s see what’s going on. We’ll help if we can.”

“This is the best!” Ge Xinyao did not go because she was afraid that Bi Hai was not willing to do this. Since Bi Hai said so, Ge Xinyao would naturally not reject it again. She held Bi Hai’s face and kissed it all over. “Thank you!”

“Thank me for what? We will follow Yang Ming in this life. Brother Yang is most annoyed at people who go back against their own words. So if we don’t want to trouble ourselves, we should remember not to make a promise so easily!” After Bi Hai became the security manager, he had matured a lot and was no longer as impetuous as before.

Xiao Hong’s heart was beating like drums. She didn’t know how long it had been. She didn’t know if Ge Xinyao would own up to her promise when she looked to Ge Xinyao for help. Xiao Hong heard that Ge Xinyao’s man was no longer guarding that place, but became the security manager of a high-end luxury residential area, earning ten thousand yuan a month. It was unknown now whether they would care about her.

When Ge Xinyao returned a text message and said that she would come over immediately, Xiao Hong was then relieved. She couldn’t help but feel a little smug.* It seems that I am still very good. I can call people by sending a text!* She prayed in her heart that Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu would eat slowly, or else, if they left, then it would be in vain.

Fortunately, Jing Xiaolu also hoped to get along with Yang Ming for a while, so Jing Xiaolu ate very slowly and chewed slowly. However, girls normally ate very slowly, so Yang Ming was not suspicious.

It wasn’t long before Bi Hai drove his broken van to the front of the seaside KFC store.

“Isn’t that Brother Yang’s car?” Ge Xinyao’s eyes were sharp; she noticed the BMW X5, which was parked in the parking lot not far away, with the number plate of Song B88B88.

Bi Hai heard Ge Xinyao’s words and quickly looked. When he saw Yang Ming’s car, he was shocked. “Brother Yang is also eating here?”

“Could it be that there is a conflict between Xiao Hong and Brother Yang?” said Ge Xinyao subconsciously.

“It can’t be, right? Then it would be a problem. We can’t get involved with it.” Bi Hai was shocked and said.

“Let’s go in and have a look first.” Ge Xinyao could only take things one step at a time.

Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai entered the KFC. Xiao Hong’s eyes kept darting to the KFC’s door. When she saw that Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai came together, she was overjoyed. She quickly waved and said, “Sister Xinyao, Brother Hai, here!”

At the same time, Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao saw Xiao Hong, they also saw Yang Ming not far from the small red table… and Jing Xiaolu was also there! This was what made Ge Xinyao very surprised!

It’s already so late. Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu were eating at KFC together on the waterfront, which couldn’t help but explain the problem… It was impossible to say that the two had nothing to do with it!

Ge Xinyao secretly swore. This Jing Xiaolu really dared to do it! But still, she actually did it! Seeing that the two were quite intimate, Ge Xinyao was really happy for Jing Xiaolu.

Hearing Xiao Hong call out Sister Xinyao and Brother Hai, Yang Ming did not react. But Jing Xiaolu was always together with Ge Xinyao, so she also called Ge Xinyao as Sister Xinyao and called Bi Hai as Brother Hai. Therefore, Jing Xiaolu subconscious raised her head and looked in the direction of the door. She really saw Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai.

However, seeing Ge Xinyao’s ambiguous gaze, Jing Xiaolu’s face subconsciously reddened. After all, she and Yang Ming were still outside so late at night, so it was hard to stop others from thinking about anything.

Bi Hai, who also admired Jing Xiaolu, did not expect that this delinquent girl, Jing Xiaolu, would also get her big break. However, seeing Jing Xiaolu’s current temperament, Bi Hai also had to sigh. Jing Xiaolu really changed; she had changed too much that she was a different person from before.

Fortunately, Jing Xiaolu was dressed up very badly at that time. Bi Hai was not interested in her, nor did he get involved. Otherwise, he would suffer badly.

“Sister Xinyao, it is them. They bullied me!” Xiao Hong did not notice the gaze of Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai, but pointed to Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu and spoke very proudly.

“Hey?” Jing Xiaolu was a bit dumbfounded and also a bit stunned. But more so, it was towards recalling the memory of the past. Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai were actually the people who Xiao Hong called over?

Seeing Xiao Hong’s appearance, Jing Xiaolu suddenly thought of her former self. At that time, when she saw Sister Xinyao and Bi Hai, wasn’t she just as arrogant in the face of Yang Ming?

Now, it was her turn to be from the perspective of Chen Mengyan, and Xiao Hong had become her former self…

At this time, Yang Ming also noticed Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai standing at the door. He looked at Xiao Hong, who was screaming at the other side and looked at Jing Xiaolu. He couldn’t help but smile.

Jing Xiaolu naturally knew that Yang Ming was also thinking of the past, so she embarrassingly lowered her head.

“Little Bi, Xinyao, you two have come. Let’s eat together.” Yang Ming waved at Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao, then pointed to the seats next to him.

Yang Ming’s sudden words made Xiao Hong and the bald-headed young man slightly stunned. The bald-headed young man also knew Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao and knew that they were very popular, but when he heard how Yang Ming called the two…

Yang Ming also knows them? And it seems that they are very familiar.

What Xiao Hong and the bald-headed young man didn’t expect was that Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao’s face showed a flattered look, and they walked carefully to Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu.

“Brother Yang, you are also here…” Bi Hai said respectfully.

Ge Xinyao also quickly glared at Xiao Hong and said, “You still don’t call Brother Yang? This is your Brother Hai’s boss!”

Xiao Hong and the bald-headed young man heard Ge Xinyao’s words, only to realize that they met a ruthless person today. They were so scared that they quickly stood up and did not dare to be so arrogant this time.

Ge Xinyao wouldn’t lie to them; Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai’s respectful appearance was not fake.

“Brother Yang… I’m sorry…” Xiao Hong’s smile was very unsightly. She didn’t expect that this incident would actually have this result. She wanted to teach others a lesson, but the result was self-defeating.

“Forget it. It’s nothing.” Yang Ming waved his hand. He didn’t want to care about them; it didn’t make much sense. However, he still smiled at Jing Xiaolu, indicating,* You look at them. Don’t they look like you from the past?*

It was difficult for Jing Xiaolu to bear being stared at by Yang Ming. She couldn’t help but say in a grievance, “I have changed for a long time… I haven’t been like that for a long time…”

Looking at the Jing Xiaolu acting like a spoiled child with grievances, Bi Hai and Ge Xinyao found it even more eye-popping. In their memory, Jing Xiaolu did not seem to have such an action.

Seeing that Yang Ming said that it was nothing, the bald-headed young man and Xiao Hong were relieved. He said, “Sister Xinyao, Brother Hai, you sit here to eat. We finished eating, and we are about to leave. Brother Yang, Sister-in-law, I’m sorry for just now. Don’t take it to heart…”

When the two went out of KFC, the bald-headed young man glared at Xiao Hong. “Why did you meddle? Is it good now? Originally, this thing could be passed by after enduring for a while. You had to put up a front. You see? How can we still trouble Brother Hai and Sister Xinyao in the future?”

Xiao Hong did not expect that things would become like this. She lowered her head with a guilty appearance.

How would Ge Xinyao and Bi Hai have the thought to blame them? After listening to Jing Xiaolu telling the story, Ge Xinyao also smiled and said, “It turns out to be like this… But how come this process seems so familiar?”

“Sister Xinyao, you are also making fun of me! Hmph!” Jing Xiaolu was embarrassed after being told off by Ge Xinyao. She wanted to bury her head under the table.

Ge Xinyao was just making a joke, but she didn’t go on. She and Bi Hai ordered something to eat, and they quickly ate. They used the excuse of going to the movies and left. They didn’t want to stay here and be the light bulb 11.

“Brother Yang, Xiaolu, I am going to the movies with Bi Hai. I heard that there are new films in the 3D theater that is not far away from here. We want to go and watch.” Ge Xinyao quickly finished eating the burger in front of her and spoke to Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu.

“Oh? What movie?” Jing Xiaolu naturally wanted to be alone with Yang Ming, but after eating, Yang Ming would probably send her back to the hotel. To spend more time with Yang Ming, Jing Xiaolu heard Ge Xinyao said that she wanted to go to the movies. Jing Xiaolu also hoped that she could go with Yang Ming.
