When Zhu Zhuqing heard Su Yan's words, she turned her head in confusion. Her gaze immediately landed on the scumbag who had run away alone, now embracing two women who looked remarkably similar.
Zhu Zhuqing's expression instantly turned cold, and a surge of anger tightened her chest. It really was that scumbag! She had barely escaped the Star Luo Empire with her life, yet here he was, indulging in pleasure without a care in the world.
At that moment, Dai Mubai also froze, staring at the familiar woman with an expression of disbelief that mixed panic and surprise. He was about to release the twin sisters he was hugging when he noticed a handsome, black-haired young man standing right beside Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing was holding the man's arm.
Damn it.
Dai Mubai instantly gritted his teeth in fury. He quickly walked over, his eyes blazing with rage and coldness.
Su Yan stepped forward, placing himself in front of Zhu Zhuqing. He offered a slight smile. "You must be Dai Mubai, right? I heard Zhuqing mention you. Hello, ex-brother!"
What the heck is that?
Dai Mubai stopped abruptly, his eyes wide with surprise at Su Yan's odd greeting. What on earth was 'ex-brother'?
Damn it. How dare you flirt with my woman?
"Kid!" Dai Mubai snarled. "I don't care who you are. Get away from that woman next to you right now, and scram!"
Su Yan frowned, ready to speak, but Zhu Zhuqing stepped out from behind him.
"Dai Mubai, I came to Suotuo City to officially cut ties with you," she stated seriously. "Since I've met you now, let's make things clear. From the moment you ran away alone, there has been no relationship between us. From now on, everyone goes their own way, with no connections, and we can both maintain our face."
Zhu Zhuqing felt she owed him no explanation, but she didn't want her true love to bear the stigma of 'hooking up with someone else's fiancée.' She wanted to draw a clear line with Dai Mubai first.
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, staring intently at Su Yan. "Is it because of him?"
Zhu Zhuqing's expression remained blank. "Su Yan is my boyfriend now. I've already made myself very clear. We no longer have a relationship, and I don't need to explain anything to you."
Dai Mubai's fists tightened further.
Su Yan felt a bit helpless about the situation. He gently pulled Zhu Zhuqing back behind him and addressed Dai Mubai.
"Ex-brother, you might not have understood Zhuqing's meaning," Su Yan said. "Zhuqing means that you two no longer have a relationship. Everyone chooses their own life, and from now on, everyone goes their own way. Look, isn't this good for you too? You have two beautiful women in your arms; you can play however you like, with no burdens on your heart. And Zhuqing chose me, so we live our own lives."
"Everyone is well, and we all save face," he concluded.
Zhu Zhuqing smiled and nodded in agreement with Su Yan's explanation.
Dai Mubai's heart was exploding with anger, but he found he had no way to refute Su Yan's logic. It was true that he had abandoned Zhu Zhuqing and run away, and he was clearly enjoying himself now. He knew he was in the wrong.
Of course, Su Yan's words were also very clear: everyone chooses their own life, and relationships should be clarified as early as possible. This way, Dai Mubai wouldn't lose face by having his fiancée 'stolen,' Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't have the status of being someone else's fiancée, and Su Yan wouldn't have the stigma of taking another man's woman. This arrangement saved face for everyone involved. That was the logical conclusion.
But despite the logic, Dai Mubai was still extremely unwilling to accept it.
Su Yan noticed Dai Mubai's expression. He stepped forward, extending his hand. "Ex-brother, don't look so full of deep hatred. You need to be more open-minded. At least now you don't have to suffer the pangs of conscience, right?"
"Let me formally introduce myself, my name is Su Yan."
Dai Mubai glared fiercely at both of them, choosing to ignore Su Yan's hand. He walked straight to the front desk and demanded, "Give me the key to the room I booked."
The hotel receptionist was utterly bewildered by the whole exchange.
Just then, the hotel manager rushed over from across the lobby, his face full of apologies as he addressed Dai Mubai. "I'm sorry, Young Master Dai, the new guy didn't know what he was doing and just gave away the room you booked."
"Would it be alright if I helped you free up another room?"
"What!" Bang.
Dai Mubai slammed his palm onto the bar counter, then swept his gaze over Su Yan and Zhu Zhuqing again. He was furious. You steal my fiancée, and now you're going to use the room I booked to do it?
Dai Mubai turned his head, glaring at Su Yan. "Kid, since you said we no longer have a relationship, now that you've taken my room, how are we going to settle this score?"
Su Yan was completely unbothered. He had gone out of his way to save face for Dai Mubai, both privately and publicly. If Dai Mubai didn't appreciate it, then Su Yan was certainly not afraid of a fight.
"You say how to handle it, and that's how we'll handle it!" Su Yan spread his hands, making it clear that the choice was Dai Mubai's.
Dai Mubai's expression was dark. "Since that's the case, then we'll resolve it according to the methods of the Spirit Master world. It will also let me see what her taste is likeâwhether she found a pretty boy who is all looks and no substance."
The hotel manager panicked and quickly intervened. "Young Master Dai, please calm down!"
Dai Mubai pointed a finger at the manager. "You shut up. I'll bear all the losses today."
He turned back to Su Yan. "Kid! Make your move. Let me see your strength."
You like to show off, too?
Little Monkey saw the situation and immediately jumped in front of Su Yan, activating its cool equipment, ready to send Dai Mubai flying.
"Little Monkey," Su Yan called, pulling Little Monkey back. "Hitting someone and killing someone are not the same. Killing focuses on a single fatal blow, while hitting focuses on hitting for as long as possible."
"Today, you go to the side and study well," he instructed.
Little Monkey: "???"
Zhu Zhuqing was also a bit confused by what she heard. She already knew that this Little Monkey was Su Yan's Spirit, but telling a Spirit to 'study' was quite strange.
"Hmph!" Dai Mubai snorted coldly. Seeing Su Yan ready, he rushed forward and threw an aerial punch, aiming straight for Su Yan's handsome face. He was consumed by anger, determined to smash that face, which was even handsomer than his own, into a pig's head.
Su Yan's body swayed slightly, appearing as a blur. After smoothly dodging Dai Mubai's punch, he casually slapped Dai Mubai, sending him crashing to the ground.
Bang.
Dai Mubai fell heavily, clearly in great pain.
At the main entrance, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Tang San had just followed the scent and arrived. As soon as they walked in, they saw what looked like a pet beating up someone's guard.
The three of them: "???"
Su Yan looked down at Dai Mubai on the ground and asked with false concern, "Ex-brother, it seems you haven't been taking good care of your body these past few years since leaving the Star Luo Empire?"
"You're already so weak, yet you still want to play with two women at once? I think you should act within your limits!"
"You..." Dai Mubai exploded with rage upon hearing this. Damn you! Forget about snatching his fiancée for now. You dare to mock me for being impotent? This is a mortal enemy!
Dai Mubai suddenly scrambled up from the ground and launched a fierce attack on Su Yan. Su Yan, however, was in no hurry. He delivered a swift series of Wing Chun punches, all landing squarely on Dai Mubai's face.
Bang bang bang!!
Bang bang bang!!
This set of Wing Chun punches completely disfigured Dai Mubai, leaving his face bruised and swollen. Dai Mubai realized that fists and feet were no match for Su Yan, so he began to use his spirit power to fight, but he was still beaten without any ability to retaliate.
Bang!
Finally, Su Yan kicked him dozens of meters away, sending him crashing down right at Tang San's feet near the entrance.
Tang San: "???"
Ning Rongrong had been recording the entire fight with her jade mirror. Seeing Dai Mubai kicked over, she immediately gave his pig-like face a close-up shot.
