Chapter 187 Dealing With The Local Gangsters

It was around 9 a.m. the next day. Bai Chen held Li Lin’s delicate hand while walking up the steps on the mountain, which led to He Yang shrine.

Last night after the kiss, the gap between them had gotten smaller. Their feelings for each other had been intensified.

If it was not for the fact he had yet to take revenge on Wang Chengye, he would have asked her to be his girlfriend or even proposed to her. The wedding could still wait for later.

“There’s still over an hour left, and we’ll be going home.”

Li Lin smiled and said this, still holding on to Bai Chen’s hand. Even though the kiss last night still embarrassed her, happiness overwhelmed it all.

“Yeah…” Bai Chen nodded as an answer.

The teacher had told them that the bus would leave for Xing Zhou city in an hour, and so the field trip at He Ling beach would end.

The announcement was made after their breakfast at the dining hall. Then, Bai Chen asked Li Lin to go out for a walk with him on the mountain opposite the He Lan hotel.

They thought that they should go to properly worship at the shrine since they would be going back home soon.

It was true that they had been there last night, but that was only for the test of courage.

The test of courage last night had not been scary at all. The students who had been assigned to disguise themselves as ghosts had not scared Bai Chen or Li Lin one bit.

After their turn, the rest of the students had taken turns doing the test, and it ended a little bit over an hour or so later.

“We’re almost at the shrine. I think we should hurry, because I don’t want us to be late for the gathering.”

Bai Chen suddenly said this with his calm voice. The subtle cool breeze made them feel refreshed.

“You’re right.” Li Lin smiled in agreement.

Then, they walked a little bit faster. Not so long after that, they finally reached the shrine. He Yang shrine was quite old. It was not big, but it gave off an overwhelming hallowed vibe.

“That’s...”

Bai Chen could not help but frown when he looked at He Yang shrine. No, he was actually looking at five men who were standing in front of the shrine.

Three of them looked very familiar to him. Of course, that was because they were the fat man Wong Nu, the thin man Guo, and the large-muscled man Hong, the three uglies whom he had dealt with yesterday.

Bai Chen did not know the other two. Both of them were middle-aged and dressed very much like street delinquents.

Both of them were so fat, it seemed like they were very well-fed. Or one could say that they had been eating so much, they were almost bloated.

“Bai Chen…” Li Lin tightened her grip on Bai Chen’s hand without knowing it when she saw those five men. It was obvious that she had not forgotten the three men she met yesterday.

She thought that it was possible that those three men whom Bai Chen had dealt with yesterday had brought their people here to take revenge on Bai Chen. She could not help but worry.

“Relax. It’s okay. I’ll take care of it. You wait here,” Bai Chen squeezed Li Lin’s hand and said this with his gentle voice.

Lii Lin hesitated for a second, but then she nodded. “Be careful.”

Bai Chen smiled and nodded. He let go of Li Lin’s hand and walked towards the men whom he handled yesterday.

“Nu, is this the man?” the plump man asked.

The fat man Wong Nu, with his face all swollen and his teeth gone, nodded hard in rage.

“Yes, father! You have to take revenge on him for me! Kill him!”

“Don’t worry. I’ll deal with him myself!” Wong Mang nodded back angrily.

He was Wong Nu’s father, so it was obvious that his name was Wong Mang. He was the one Wong Nu had been talking about yesterday.

Actually, he was standing there in front of Bai Chen and Li Lin because all five of them had been tailing after them from the hotel. Wong Nu was the one who’d identified the target.

When they saw that Bai Chen was going up onto the mountain, they found another path and rushed up here first. That was the reason why they were here now.

“Let’s go, Man. Let’s beat them to a pulp!” Wong Mang cracked his knuckles and walked towards Bai Chen.

“Haha. Of course, Mang. I like this kind of stuff anyway,” another plump middle-aged man said. His name was Wong Man. He was Wong Mang’s little brother and, therefore, Wong Nu’s uncle.

After what he said, he quickly followed Wong Mang towards Bai Chen.

“Boy, you’ve got some nerve hurting my son!”

Wong Mang exhaled angrily. He reached Bai Chen and quickly aimed a punch at Bai Chen’s face.

BAM!

His fist did not reach Bai Chen’s face because Bai Chen’s hand had grabbed it.

“What?” Wong Mang was alarmed that Bai Chen could catch his fist. The surprise did not last long as he saw Bai Chen’s fist coming towards his face with incredible speed.

“Hmph!” Wong Mang vocalized through his teeth. He was going to evade it, but it was a shame he could not.

BAM!

Bai Chen’s fist hit his face hard. His body flew back and collided with Wong Man, who was walking behind him. They both dropped to the ground.

“AGGHHHHH!”

Both of them screamed in pain, especially Wong Mang. His face was as horrible as Wong Nu’s yesterday.

His face was soaked in blood, mostly from his nose and mouth. He was fortunate enough that his teeth were still intact, otherwise it would have been even more painful.

“H…How is this possible?!”

Seeing what had just happened before their eyes, the delinquents screamed. They could not believe that Wong Mang and Wong Man would lose this easily.

All of a sudden, they felt a great deal of fear. If Wong Mang and Wong Man had been handled thus, why would they not be?

Bai Chen did not wait for Wong Mang and Wong Man to get up. He quickly walked towards them and kicked them both in the face. Wong Mang and Wong Man finally fell unconscious.

Bai Chen’s eyes landed on the other three who were left. Without hesitation, he ran towards them, aiming to strike.

In just the blink of an eye, Wong Nu and his lackeys fell unconscious without being able to do anything.
