The dim lights of the bar flickered back and forth, and just as they brightened, Li Taixui caught a glimpse of a figure that seemed to appear and disappear, standing not far from Bald, holding a leather belt in his hand.

From the side, that cold and stern face was all too familiar.

Li Taixui's arrogance deflated in an instant.

He remembered that figure vividly.

The scene in the KTV that night was engraved so deeply in his memory that the mere thought of it still sent shivers down his spine.

Dozens of his men, all well-trained and in top physical condition.

Yet they couldn't last even two minutes in the hands of that person.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Taixui would never have believed that such a person could exist.

The incredibly sharp techniques, decisive and ruthless attacks, keen and accurate intuition, and actions that were as fast as lightning, felt like something out of a Hollywood blockbuster.

Li Taixui had originally thought that he would never cross paths with that person again in his life.

But just a few days later, he found himself facing that person once more.

That man who was unspeakably terrifying in his mind.

Even now, if he recalled the events of that night, he would feel his whole body chill and struggle to fall asleep for a long time.

Sometimes, he would even have nightmares about that person.

"Brother Taisui, it's me, Bald, I'm right here."

Seeing Li Taixui's arrival, Bald instantly regained his arrogant demeanor.

"Kid, my boss is here, you're dead meat this time, haha," Bald laughed smugly.

"Little lady, if you behave tonight, we can talk, but if not, see this? With so many of our brothers here, do you know what 'three holes all open' means?"

Bald seemed to have already envisioned his victorious end and began to ponder which beauty to choose from across the room.

That elegant-looking beauty is not bad, yes, her, I'll have a joyous night with her tonight," Bald thought as he stared at Su Wanjing.

Li Taixui, however, remained frozen in place, his eyes firmly fixed on Lin Hai.

For some reason, he was under the illusion that even though they were still a considerable distance apart, the sense of threat seemed very close.

That figure, even standing far off, exuded an aura that was unfathomably terrifying.

"Brother Taisui, it's this kid. He was all high and mighty just now, but now he probably doesn't even have the guts to speak," said Bald, pointing at Lin Hai.

Lin Hai slowly turned his head, his gaze instantly focusing on Li Taixui.

The moment he felt that gaze, Li Taixui felt as if he was being pricked by needles all over his body, uncomfortable, and utterly unable to move.

"This person, this gaze is so terrifying!"

The others failed to notice Lin Hai's gaze.

His stare was directed solely at Li Taixui.

Feeling the intensity of Lin Hai's gaze, beads of sweat the size of soybeans seeped out on Li Taixui's forehead, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.

"Kid, scared to piss yourself at the sight of my Boss Taisui?"

Bald laughed triumphantly, thinking, 'Well, didn't you act all tough with that belt before? Aren't you just stunned speechless in front of my boss now?'

Zhang Shaoyang and his companions felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. Their own people hadn't arrived yet, but the opponent's troops had, and their main player, Lin Hai, seemed to be frozen.

Everyone thought that Lin Hai was just standing there dazed in the face of Li Taixui, feeling disheartened.

Only Su Wanjing remained composed. She had witnessed Lin Hai in action and knew that a few dozen thugs were not a match for him.

In fact, Su Wanjing speculated that even a few hundred people might not stand a chance against Lin Hai.

"Kid, why are you not talking?"

Bald became more convinced of Lin Hai's timidity.

The others also revealed disdainful smiles, thinking that just a moment ago they had thought Lin Hai was a real man, but now it seemed, tsk tsk, that was all there was to him.

Zhang Shaoyang's eyes were full of confusion: "Brother Lin, what's wrong?"

Lin Hai didn't answer him, still staring at Li Taixui.

However, due to the lighting and angles at the moment, no one could see the look in Lin Hai's eyes.

His gaze at this moment was filled with coldness, and his deep eyes were like Magic Power that made Li Taixui dare not meet his gaze.

Seeing the other party not responding, Bald completely convinced himself that Lin Hai had chickened out.

With this thought, Bald's demeanor relaxed, no longer flustered as earlier, and he walked over to Lin Hai boldly, slapping a hand onto Lin Hai's shoulder.

"Kid, kneel down and kowtow thirty times to your grandpa..."

"Crack"

Before Bald could finish speaking, he felt a hand, quick as lightning, grab his wrist.

Before he could react, suddenly, he felt an immense force from that hand, followed by penetrating pain.

"Ah!"

With a scream, Bald's wrist, which had been resting on Lin Hai's shoulder, was forcibly broken at a ninety-degree angle.

Bald fell to his knees with a thump, gasping in pain, body trembling, and beads of sweat dropping from his forehead.

"Scram!"

Lin Hai spoke indifferently; with a casual kick, Bald thudded and crashed hard into the booth, headfirst into the sofa.

His companions hurried to pull Bald out of the sofa, and their gaze towards Lin Hai became more severe, the arrogance now replaced by a profound fear as they stared fixedly at Lin Hai.

Zhang Shaoyang and the others felt a jolt in their hearts, such brutal tactics.

Su Wanjing smiled as she looked at the tall figure.

Standing below, Li Taixui finally moved, step by step, walked up to the booth, his followers behind him glaring angrily at Lin Hai, ready to kill this senseless youngster at any moment.

Li Taixui moved slowly, every step seeming to require great effort, finally reaching Lin Hai after a difficult walk.

"Brother Taisui, save me, this kid doesn't take you seriously at all, hiss," Bald gasped in pain, seeking help.

Li Taixui did not heed Bald's words, and when he was less than a meter away from Lin Hai.

Bending his legs, he knelt down with a thump, forehead striking the floor hard.

One.

Two.

...

Thirty times.

Just as Bald had earlier demanded Lin Hai to kneil and kowtow thirty times.

Without saying a word, Li Taixui gritted his teeth, persisted stubbornly, and gave Lin Hai a full thirty kowtows before he lifted his head, still maintaining the kneeling position.

Bald's eyes were bulging out as if they were about to pop.

The minions' aggressive momentum froze for a second and then dispersed instantly, all in disbelief.

Zhang Shaoyang and the others looked at Lin Hai, their eyes shifting, somewhat unable to accept what was happening.

"Master Lin, please calm your anger, Little Li knows he was wrong."

After finishing speaking, Li Taixui once again fiercely kowtowed another thirty times.

The whole scene, including the hotel manager, were utterly dumbfounded, silenced like cicadas in winter, their eyes filled with deep disbelief.

"This, this, this," Bald finally realized at this moment that he had provoked someone he absolutely should not have – although this person was wearing a security uniform, seeming bland and ordinary, to make Li Taixui panic to such a degree, to willingly kowtow and beg for mercy, was a first for him in his life.

Throughout the entire encounter, Lin Hai didn't say a word to Li Taixui, instead smiling at Wanjing, and spoke gently and calmly, "Are you alright?"

"Mm-hmm, with you here, how could anything happen to me?" Su Wanjing replied with a blooming smile, enchanting enough to topple cities and states.
