"Although Wu Da Ma Zi has escaped, his two little brothers have taken all the blame. I estimate they'll get at least five years in prison," Tan Jing said.

When Chen Yang heard this news, he just smiled slightly without saying much.

Wu Da Ma Zi wasn't much of a big deal, and his little brothers were even less so.

People like them going inside didn't really matter, so he wasn't concerned.

"It seems Wu Da Ma Zi is quite useful to the Gu Family; otherwise, they wouldn't bother bailing him out."

Chen Yang picked up his water cup, took a sip, and thought this silently to himself.

When he first heard that Wu Da Ma Zi was bailed out, Chen Yang immediately thought of the Gu Family.

Because besides them, no one else would bother to bail him out.

"Sir, Madam, all your dishes have been served. You may begin dining,"

Just as Chen Yang and Tan Jing finished discussing this topic, the restaurant served the food, and Chen Yang started eating with Tan Jing.

The two had just casually arranged a meal, so they chatted a lot in the process.

Including the incident from yesterday.

Which was about that kidnapping case.

Chen Yang suspected that the person with the last name Qian was highly suspicious, as the mastermind behind the criminals.

When Tan Jing returned yesterday, she followed Chen Yang's instructions, did a lot of work, and discovered that person Qian was indeed very suspicious.

However, they still lacked substantial evidence and were continuing the investigation.

Their eating and chatting went on comfortably.

By the time they were full and satisfied, it was getting late.

Tan Jing took the initiative to get up and pay the bill first.

"Let's go, Chen Yang."

Tan Jing came back with the receipt, calling Chen Yang to leave.

"Alright." Chen Yang smiled, got up, and left the hotpot restaurant with Tan Jing.

When they entered the hotpot restaurant, it was still broad daylight outside. By the time they came out, the street outside was already glittering with neon lights.

Chen Yang and Tan Jing got back to the car. Since it was still early, neither of them mentioned going back home.

They just aimlessly drove around for a couple of laps.

Just when Chen Yang was planning to take Tan Jing home, he suddenly saw a few guys in black clothes, holding controlled knives, standing on the relatively dim roadside not far away.

Seeing this from inside the car made Chen Yang laugh.

In this day and age, they still dared to hold controlled knives and stand by the roadside.

Should we say they're brave? Or should we say they're stupid?

"Tan Jing, here's a performance opportunity for you."

Chen Yang slowed the car down, teasingly said.

At this moment, Tan Jing also noticed those young thugs on the side of the road not far away.

Hearing what Chen Yang said, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Pull over, we can't let this arrogance go unchecked," Tan Jing said with a smile.

"Okay."

Chen Yang smiled and followed Tan Jing's words, parking the car near those hoodlums.

Because they were not far away, the sound of the car parking was quite loud. Those young thugs, hearing the noise, immediately turned their defiant eyes towards Chen Yang.

The looks in their eyes and the expressions on their faces were as arrogant as can be.

They seemed to think no one could stand in their way.

However, such wild grins were downright laughable in the eyes of Chen Yang and Tan Jing.

Having parked, Chen Yang instinctively wanted to open the door, get out of the car to deal with these guys, thinking to let Tan Jing take them in for a little correction.

But before he pushed the door open, Tan Jing stopped him.

"Hold on, let's wait a bit more in the car. They're all geared up like that; they must be here for a showdown. More people will come," Tan Jing said with a smile.

Chen Yang thought it indeed made sense.

So he pulled the car door back shut and sat with Tan Jing in the car to wait.

About five or six minutes passed, and sure enough.

On the opposite side of the street, another group of similarly dressed individuals appeared.

They too were holding some kind of weapons.

Welding-joined Guan Yu knives, controlled knives, and machetes. They came aggressively from the opposite side of the street.

Their entrance was just like a scene from a triad movie.

Those who had been waiting saw their "enemies" appear and immediately steeled themselves for a tough confrontation.

A large-scale street brawl was about to break out.

Now that everyone was out, it was the perfect moment to catch them.

Tan Jing didn't wait and directly pushed open the car door, stepping out of the car.

Seeing this, Chen Yang followed suit.

"You really dare to show up! What do you mean – ready for a fight or what?"

"Damn it, if people don't mess with me, I don't mess with them! Either apologize today, or I'll chop you down!"

...

The people from both sides quickly rushed at each other, but upon meeting, they didn't start fighting immediately; instead, they exchanged verbal insults.

This was the usual process in a thug face-off.

But in a way, that was good, as it gave Chen Yang and Tan Jing a chance.

If the two sides had really started fighting, it would have been more troublesome to separate them!

"What are you doing here! Public fighting! Aren't you afraid of being caught?"

Tan Jing and Chen Yang got out of the car and immediately began to reprimand the two groups of young thugs.

The thugs from both sides were heatedly arguing at this point, each with eyes red as if they were about to lose it, turning their attention to Tan Jing and Chen Yang.

The leader of the later group, sporting a pompadour, looked very arrogant.

When he saw Tan Jing approach with those words, he pointed his Guan Dao at her without a second thought.

"Who the hell do you think you are? If you don't want to die, get lost, got it?" the pompadour retorted arrogantly.

The leader on the opposite side wasn't much better; he was holding a machete, swinging it around threateningly at Tan Jing.

I have to say, although these thugs were young, they still had a lot of audacity.

If Chen Yang weren't present and confident, Tan Jing probably wouldn't be able to handle such a situation alone.

But with Chen Yang, it was different; no matter how fierce the criminals were, Chen Yang could handle several of them single-handedly, let alone these kids who probably weren't even twenty yet.

"You guys really haven't faced any consequences, huh?"

Seeing these people so arrogant, Tan Jing didn't bother with any more words and, without a second word, pulled out a pair of handcuffs from her bag.

Preparing to cuff them.

When those thugs saw Tan Jing take out the handcuffs, they were indeed startled.

"Whoa! Police!"

The pompadour exclaimed, instinctively wanting to flee.

At this moment, a boss on the outside coldly made a sarcastic remark.

"With a small gut like that, what are you doing trying to mix into society? It's just one police officer; why would we be scared? We have so many people; could he even catch us?" Once he said this, the group of thugs, originally frightened, immediately calmed down.

The pompadour, who had been about to run, also realized this.

He returned to his original position.

"Damn, gave me a scare, what's there to be afraid of with just one person," the pompadour spat.

"Hmph."

Hearing what the pompadour said, the other boss immediately snorted coldly, looking somewhat disdainful.

Then, as if trying to show off his courage in front of his opponent, he even boldly provoked Tan Jing.
