Chapter 219: I Should Die, Don’t Be Mad!
"Ah!!!!"
The next moment, a scream like that of a slaughtered pig echoed within the silent hotpot restaurant.
The boiling hotpot broth instantly cooked Zheng Tianhua’s hand. The excruciating pain swept over him like a flood, striking him like lightning. His mind went blank. He had never expected Li Qianfan to be so ruthlessly decisive.
"Li Qianfan— "
Chu Mingyue was shocked by the suddenness of the scene. She covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes revealing an uncontrollable shock. In her memory, Li Qianfan had been particularly mild-mannered when he was a student, not seeming capable of doing something like this.
Wang Wu and Li Wei were completely stunned by the scene before them, retreating unconsciously as they heard Zheng Tianhua’s piggish screams.
"Help...Save me!"
Zheng Tianhua tried to pull his cooked hand out of the hotpot, but Li Qianfan’s strength was just too immense, clamping down like iron tongs, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t free himself from Li Qianfan’s grip.
The waitstaff, hearing Zheng Tianhua’s pleas for help, rushed over to see what was happening, and were instantly terrified by the sight.
"Sir, please, let’s talk this out, no need for violence,"
The manager of the hotpot restaurant was scared out of his wits; if a fatality occurred under his watch, how would he ever explain it to the owner?
"Get lost!" Li Qianfan shouted angrily at the approaching manager.
The shout instantly intimidated the manager, who stopped dead in his tracks, fearfully looking at Li Qianfan. Although the young man in front of him looked ordinary, he had a mysteriously powerful aura, like a primeval behemoth freshly emerged, capable of devouring him whole.
Hesitant for a moment, the manager decided to stay put, not daring to intervene. Enjoy exclusive adventures from NovelBin.Côm
"What are you two standing around for, go get help for me!"
Zheng Tianhua, unable to free himself, yelled at the two who were dazedly standing not far away.
"Brother Hua, wait a moment, we are going to call for help right now."
Suddenly, Wang Wu and Li Wei seemed to snap out of their daze. They exchanged looks and ran towards the exit.
"You blind scum, I advise you to let me go now, otherwise, you’re waiting for your doom!"
Zheng Tianhua’s face was hideously twisted as he glared at Li Qianfan with bursting veins, spitting maliciously, "Originally, I only wanted to cripple one of your legs, but now that you’ve burned my hand, I swear I’ll break both your legs and make you a cripple for life."
"Is that so??"
Li Qianfan released Zheng Tianhua’s hand and sat back down on the seat, saying indifferently, "I’ll wait for you to make me a cripple."
"My hand... My hand!"
Zheng Tianhua looked at his cooked hand, the severe pain distorting his face. Though he now harbored thoughts of killing Li Qianfan, the memory of Li’s overwhelming strength deterred him. He feared a repeat, potentially getting his other hand cooked as well.
"Brother Hua, Zhang Di and the others are here!"
Wang Wu and Li Wei returned to the hotpot restaurant; this time they were followed by seven or eight strong young men dressed in Martial Artist uniforms.

Seeing the badge on the newcomers’ chests, Chu Mingyue’s heart violently shook, her expression turning very serious. She hadn’t expected Zheng Tianhua to call on so many from the Four Seas Martial Pavilion, nor for them to bring so many people. Now Li Qianfna was in danger.
However, upon seeing Zhang Di, Li Qianfan’s expression became incredibly interesting. He had thought Zheng Tianhua would call some societal elements given his confidence but didn’t expect it to be students from the Four Seas Martial Pavilion.
Most crucially, the people called were Zhang Di and others he had previously had conflicts with. The world really was too small.
"Qianfan, let’s get out of here, Zheng Tianhua has brought people from Four Seas Martial Pavilion, and there are many of them. You’re no match for them,"
Chu Mingyue quickly stood up and tugged at Li Qianfan’s arm, intending to run away.
Li Qianfan declined Chu Mingyue’s suggestion. He gently shook his head and said, "It’s fine. Things like this need to be resolved as soon as possible. You can escape the first day but not the fifteenth. Besides, I don’t like the feeling of being watched. Let’s settle this once and for all."
"But the members of Four Seas Martial Pavilion are really good at fighting. I’m afraid you’ll get hurt,"
Chu Mingyue said with a worried face.
The concern of his companion was fully captured by Li Qianfan, which warmed his heart for a moment, but he still gently shook his head and said, "It’s okay, I can handle it."
Seeing how resolutely he spoke, Chu Mingyue grew even more anxious. Although she hadn’t seen Li Qianfan for many years, she understood him from their school days. His personality was particularly stubborn, and he was also very proud.
Knowing that the opponent had summoned members of Four Seas Martial Pavilion and still not running away was probably because of pride.
"Zhang Di, kill him for me!"
When Zheng Tianhua saw Zhang Di arriving with his men, his face became even more ferocious, like that of a raging beast.
"Okay!" Having already received 250,000, Zhang Di was very obedient, without any nonsense. He waved his big hand and led a group of his underlings straight toward Li Qianfan, "Dare to scald the hands of my financier, I’ll kill you!"
However, when he reached Li Qianfan, the fist Zhang Di raised suddenly stopped mid-air, and the color of anger even froze on his face.
Li Qianfan??
The ruthless man who had punched and shattered a wooden post to become the top figure of Four Seas Martial Pavilion, replacing Zhang Ju.
Could it be that I’m seeing things?
Zhang Di stood still, rubbing his eyes, and when he opened them again, Li Qianfan was still standing in front of him, even more clearly than before.
Damn, it really is that ruthless guy.
Not just Zhang Di, but the group of underlings who had followed him also noticed Li Qianfan’s presence. They stood there bewildered, and when they saw Li Qianfan’s face becoming even more grim, fear thickened in their eyes.
Back then, when Li Qianfan had fought Zhang Ju one-on-one and shattered a wooden post with a single punch, they all had been there.
"What are you guys doing standing around? Attack him!"
Seeing the crowd standing motionless, Zheng Tianhua immediately roared in anger.
"Fuck, shut your mouth!"
However, Zhang Di turned his head and yelled at his ’financier’. While Zheng Tianhua was stunned, Zhang Di put a smile on his face and looked at Li Qianfan, bowing deeply, his face full of flattery, "Brother Fan, what... what are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you to come hit me!"
Li Qianfan’s lips curled up slightly, staring at Zhang Di with a half-smile.

At these words, Zhang Di’s face changed instantly, especially when he saw Li Qianfan’s increasingly stern face. A chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head. Suddenly remembering the wooden post that had been smashed to pieces by Li Qianfan’s fist, his body involuntarily began to tremble.
"Snap!!"
The next moment, without any hesitation, Zhang Di slapped his own face hard and quickly apologized, "Brother Fan, I didn’t know Zheng Tianhua wanted to hit you, it’s my fault, I deserve to die, please don’t be angry!"
