Chapter 129 - Obtaining The Restaurant

The hooligan was stunned. He tried to pull back the rod but to no avail. The slender fingers that grabbed the rod felt like deep rock that was impregnatable. He couldn't move his body from the grip.

Wei Liuying watched coldly and put the piece of meat to her mouth leisurely.

"Boss! This lad here is unwilling to move!" The hooligan finally shouted.

Just as the leader, Master You turned around, Wei Liuying released her grip. As the hooligan has been trying to pull it back with all of his power, he was thrown to the back when Wei Liuying released the rod.

Bang!

"You're surprisingly powerful," Yang Xian commented.

"It's that man who's weak," Wei Liuying replied. If she faced great master, she would have no other choice but to run. However, that hooligan only knew how to bully the weak with weapon. The strength behind his strike was not that powerful.

Yang Xian nodded. "Indeed, he's weaker than a young girl."

"You're absolutely correct, Young Master Yang," Manager Xin agreed.

The hooligan's face turned red. He was thoroughly enraged, not realizing that these people were only stating the fact. After all, Wei Liuying was actually a young girl who couldn't be categorized as an adult yet.

"You're seeking trouble!"

Swish!

Just as the hooligan was about to stand up, something passed by his face and pierced the ground. There was blood on the cheek of the hooligan as he froze in his place, unable to move at all. His head tilted to the back. He could see one chopstick stuck on the wooden wall, creating a hole that was not supposed to be there.

H…how did a chopstick has that much power?

Master You was also watching from the back with dumbfounded expression. That one attack was swift and precise as it managed to hit his men's face. However, he couldn't even see her movements.

"This… Young Master, don't get involved in our matter. We're trying to sort out our problem with the manager."

"And I'm trying to eat peacefully," Wei Liuying replied. "And I need new chopstick."

Master You frowned. He noticed that one of the chopstick in Wei Liuying's hand was gone. It was clear that the one on the ground was the one she had thrown in that split second.

"You can eat outside."

"And if I don't want?"

Master You's eyes narrowed. "Are you so adamant to create trouble here?"

Wei Liuying chuckled. She turned her body sideways and crossed her legs. This posture made her look like a troublemaker and cheeky young master. Her lips curled up to form a naughty smile. "Aren't you the one who tried to create trouble, Mr. I'm so great that I can destroy tables?"

Manager Xin was thoroughly stunned. This was the first time he saw this side of Wei Liuying. Even if this was nothing more than an act, he was impressed by Wei Liuying greatly. The reason why she could act as Wei Hong Zheng must be because of her spectacular act too.

On the other hand, Yang Xian was still eating leisurely while watching everything unfolded before him. His eyes were calm and composed.

"Get him," Master You ordered in cold tone.

Swish!

Wei Liuying moved from her place and threw the chopstick away. She pulled the chair and pushed it forward to block the two men. There were a total of five people who came to her direction. Her other hand quickly unsheathed her sword.

Clang! Slash!

With a swift movement, Wei Liuying ducked down and brandished her sword forward. Her movements were done seamlessly as if the sword was connected to her body. Afterwards, Wei Liuying twisted her body and stepped forward.

Several hooligans fell on the ground.

With each movement, more and more fell on the ground. Wei Liuying herself didn't look like she expended any energy.

"So beautiful," Manager Xin murmured. He was not an expert in martial arts, but he could see that Wei Liuying's movement looked like arts. Rather than fighting, she looked like she was dancing.

Yang Xian took his cup of tea and sipped slowly. "You're right."

"I thought you only brought he—I mean him in because of his intelligence."

"That's the first option, but having great martial art skill is also good," Yang Xian replied with a smirk on the corner of his eyes.

Somehow, Manager Xin had the feeling that Yang Xian was planning to have Wei Liuying in for some important position. One that was not supposed to be for a young lady. However, when they headed to the north, war will not differentiate gender and age. No matter if they were children or women, as long as they participated, they would be treated equally.

Swish!

Wei Liuying swing the sword down, wounding the last hooligan aside from the leader. Her cold eyes looked at the leader. "Do you still want to have a go, Master You?"

Fear crept from the bottom of his heart. Master You had met with several people, but this was the first time he felt this way. Neither one of his people were killed, but they were on the verge of death. With their wounds near their vital points, they would die if they were not treated in time.

"You… who are you?"

"Just a passerby," Wei Liuying replied uncaringly. She walked towards Manager Xia, who was also watching with dumbfounded expression. "Do you have any interest to sell the restaurant?"

Manager Xia felt as if his soul was pulled to reality when he heard the question. Selling the restaurant? He had been working hard to make sure that he could make a living from this restaurant, so he had never thought of selling it before. However, with the gangs harassing him and asking for protection fee, he couldn't do anything.

His profit has been plummeted badly.

"This…"

"Young Brother, are you trying to stand on my way?" Master You asked with displease.

Wei Liuying looked back and crossed her hands. "If you still value your men's live, you better bring them back to the nearby clinic. In less than 50 breaths time they would die."

Master You was alarmed when he heard what Wei Liuying said. Indeed, Wei Liuying didn't show any mercy at all when she attacked the men. She headed straight for the kill, yet she didn't hit the vital points. 

"Let's go!"

The men scampered outside. They were all unwilling to die, so they had to find the nearest hospital to get treated right away.

"You're letting them alive? If they come back and create trouble again, you won't be able to help out," Yang Xian remarked from the back.

Wei Liuying shook her head. "Do you really think there's nearby hospital here? Even if there is, they have lost too much blood and it'll be impossible for them to stay alive after getting wounded so badly."

Looking at the blood splattered on the ground, Yang Xian's lips curled up to form a smile. He could guess that Wei Liuying had calculated that with each of her strike, the men would only have a very short time to live. Unless they managed to reach the hospital in time and got treated by the best doctor, they would have to say goodbye to their lives.

It was cruel, but he liked it.

Rather than leaving loose ends to strike back at them in the future, it would be better to eliminate all of them before they could possibly do anything.

Manager Xia looked at Wei Liuying. "Young Master..."

"Liu. My name is Liu Ying," Wei Liuying said.

"Ah, Young Master Liu, what do you mean by buying the restaurant?"

"It's simple. I want to have the right for the restaurant, but you'll be able to operate it as usual. However, I'll be keeping 30 percent of what you got," Wei Liuying replied. "Those hooligans also wouldn't come back again."

30 percent?

Manager Xia was definitely interested. The gangs usually took more than 50 percent than what he got. In addition, they often harassed him.

"This…"

"Manager Xin, would you like to add something?" Wei Liuying turned to look at Manager Xin.

By this time, Manager Xin understood that what Wei Liuying wanted was a restaurant as a whole. He stood up and cupped his hands. "Manager Xia, shall we have a talk?"

"Yes?"

Wei Liuying chose to step back and returned back to the table. Her line of sight immediately landed on the plate of meat, which only has two left. She looked at Yang Xian. "Why did you eat so much?"

"It's good," Yang Xian replied unhurriedly. He smirked. "Since it'll be yours, you'll be able to eat more by yourself later. Don't be stingy here."

Wei Liuying took a pair of new chopstick and took the two last two pieces of meat. "Then the last one is for me."

Yang Xian chuckled. He looked at Manager Xin. "You sure have a knack to make people do your work. Are you planning to have a backup?"

Wei Liuying didn't hide it and admitted directly, "Yes."
