He was a bodyguard by profession. While he couldn't claim to have seen the world, having been in the trade for so many years, he had witnessed his share of grand scenes. But he had never seen someone get kicked into the air. What's more, the person who was sent flying knocked over four or five people behind him. Just what kind of strength would that take?

That can't possibly be a human feat, can it?

At this thought, the remaining bodyguards felt a sudden urge to retreat, their feet instinctively taking a step back.

Sun Yunxing, standing at the very back, saw that his hired bodyguards were scared and couldn't help but shout, "Go on, get him! Whoever among you can take him down, I'll give you one million!"

"Remember, it's one million in cash! I'll let you walk away with the cash right now, do you hear me?!"

The promise of one million was like a shot of adrenaline, instantly revitalizing the remaining bodyguards. They no longer cared how powerful Liu Ergou was and charged at him once again.

Watching the group rush toward him, Liu Ergou couldn't help but sigh. The old saying was true: money talks.

When will I ever be that rich?! Ah!

Despite his musings, Liu Ergou's actions didn't slow in the slightest. He met the charging bodyguards with a punch. With a single fist, another bodyguard was on the ground, lying unconscious.

Then, Liu Ergou used the same tactic again, delivering one punch to each of the other bodyguards. In less than a minute, they were all taken down. All the bodyguards lay on the ground, completely unconscious.

Seeing this, Sun Yunxing was dumbstruck. He had never seen anyone so formidable. He had spent a fortune hiring these bodyguards, and in all this time, no one had ever been able to defeat them. Today, for the first time, he watched them all get knocked down, one by one.

As the thought crossed his mind, a pang of regret surfaced in Sun Yunxing's heart.

Perhaps I shouldn't have provoked Liu Ergou and Liu Yunxi today. If I hadn't provoked them…

Before he could finish the thought, Sun Yunxing forcibly stamped it out.

How can I back down so easily! Under no circumstances can I concede. I pursued Liu Yunxi for four whole years of college. I've dreamed of winning her over, and now that I finally have the chance, I have to seize it.

With that, all the fear in Sun Yunxing's heart vanished. He looked up at the menacing Liu Ergou and couldn't help but shout.

"Wait a minute!"

"Can you let me say a few words?!"

Hearing this, Liu Ergou let out a cold laugh. He was curious to hear what Sun Yunxing could possibly have to say now.

"Speak!"

That single word seemed to invigorate the previously fearful Sun Yunxing.

"Your name is Liu Ergou, right? And you said you're just a farmer from a village, isn't that right?"

At this, Liu Ergou nodded, confirming Sun Yunxing's words.

Seeing Liu Ergou nod, Sun Yunxing couldn't help but heave a long sigh of relief.

Since he stopped and didn't attack, I still have a chance! I can't beat him, but I can try to reason with him.

If Liu Ergou knew what Sun Yunxing was thinking right now, he would surely roll his eyes.

This kid must have a serious problem. Most people try courtesy before resorting to force, but he does the opposite. Only someone with a screw loose would think of such a method!

Sun Yunxing continued, "Liu Ergou, you're a farmer. How much can you possibly earn in a year from planting some crops? If Yun Xi ends up with you, won't you just be dragging her down? Yun Xi is such a wonderful girl; she shouldn't be in the countryside suffering with you! She deserves a better life, and…"

Sun Yunxing hadn't finished his sentence when Liu Yunxi, who was standing behind Liu Ergou, could no longer bear to listen.

"Sun Yunxing, are you out of your mind?!" Liu Yunxi stepped forward and yelled. "What my life is like has nothing to do with you! My life is my own choice, what right do you have to interfere?!

"Besides, who told you that going to the countryside means suffering? And another thing, I rejected you from our freshman year all the way to your senior year. Have you ever stopped to think for a second why I kept rejecting you?

"You really think I don't know about all your dirty secrets? And don't even get me started on your family. Every single one of them has a screw loose!

"You were the one chasing me from start to finish. I never accepted a single thing you gave me. Whether it was gifts or money, I returned it all to you!

"And your mother? She's really something else! She called me out of my dorm in the middle of the night to tell me I wasn't good enough for you and that I should stay away! But the thing is, I never even accepted you, yet she was convinced I was the one seducing you!

"You tell me, isn't she crazy?!"

This tirade left Sun Yunxing utterly speechless, while a look of surprise appeared on Liu Ergou's face.

Wow, Sun Yunxing's mother is truly one of a kind. Waking someone up in the middle of the night just for a talk, and thinking Liu Yunxi was seducing her son. That's just absurd. How much confidence does she have in her son?

Across from them, Sun Yunxing stood with his head lowered, a bitter smile on his face.

"That… that wasn't my fault! Yunxi, just give me one chance. I'm trying my best to convince my mother to accept…"

He was cut off by Liu Yunxi before he could finish.

"Shut up! I rejected you clearly from the very beginning. Are you incapable of understanding?"

Seeing that Sun Yunxing wanted to say more, Liu Ergou hastily put an end to the farce.

"Alright, that's enough idle chatter. Sun Yunxing, Liu Yunxi has made her position clear. She doesn't like you. Do you understand?"

To Liu Ergou's complete surprise, Sun Yunxing replied, "No, it's impossible that Yunxi doesn't like me! She's just secretly in love with me and is too afraid to admit it!"

Hearing this, Liu Ergou was rendered completely speechless.

It seems this guy has a serious case of delusion. As a doctor, I feel it's my duty to help snap him out of it.

With this thought, Liu Ergou no longer held back and strode right up to Sun Yunxing. Looking at the still-ranting man, he unceremoniously delivered two heavy slaps across his face.

Instantly, two crisp sounds rang out.

SLAP! SLAP!

Liu Ergou had put his full force into those two slaps. After they landed, Sun Yunxing's face began to swell at a rate visible to the naked eye.
