As Gu Pei lunged forward with a punch, the hooligans closed in, ready to overwhelm him.
“Stop pretending, you little punk!”
Brother Long shoved Xu Niannian aside, his gaze lecherous as he advanced towards Gu Jin. “Since you’ve graced us with your presence, you’re not leaving tonight.”
“Ha! Since you’ve come to us, why not entertain Brother Long tonight?” the hooligans jeered, their laughter echoing as they encroached upon Gu Jin and Gu Pei.
Grabbing a wine bottle from the table, Gu Pei positioned himself protectively in front of Gu Jin. “Gu Jin, get out of here. Run and call the cops.”
While aware of Gu Jin’s fighting prowess, Gu Pei knew that, as a girl, she was at a physical disadvantage against adult men. With only the two of them against a group, they were outnumbered and vulnerable.
Moreover, the lecherous gazes the thugs cast upon Gu Jin made Gu Pei’s blood boil with indignation. He couldn’t bear the thought of them taking advantage of her in a fight.
Gu Jin arched an eyebrow imperceptibly and swiftly grasped the back of Gu Pei’s collar, pulling him back behind her.
Gu Pei, holding a wine bottle and preparing to face off against a group of burly men, was left dumbfounded by the sudden turn of events.
Settling him onto a nearby chair as if he were a helpless chick, Gu Jin regarded him with a hint of disdain. “Stay out of this.”
Despite the small number of assailants, Gu Pei, who had apparently been overpowered and chased by them, found himself on the receiving end of his sister’s scorn. It was a clear sign of her superiority in their eyes, disregarding the fact that Gu Yang possessed mutant abilities while Gu Pei was merely an ordinary individual.
Utterly flummoxed by Gu Jin’s demeanor, Gu Pei couldn’t help but wonder if he was being looked down upon.
Observing the hooligans closing in on Gu Jin with sinister intent, Gu Pei hastily interjected, “Watch out!”
On the sidelines, Su Ye casually held a newly opened bowl of instant noodles, bemused by Gu Pei’s sudden concern. “Why’d you have to go and remind them?”
Confusion clouded Gu Pei’s mind until he was abruptly stunned by the spectacle unfolding before him.
With a swift motion, Gu Jin raised her slender leg and delivered a powerful kick that sent the hooligan hurtling through the air, his body soaring in a trajectory that seemed almost surreal.
Gu Jin’s movements were fluid and lightning-fast, leaving behind a trail of afterimages as she effortlessly dispatched each assailant with precision and efficiency.
As a skilled physician, Gu Jin possessed an intimate understanding of human anatomy, adept at exploiting pressure points and bone structure to incapacitate her opponents with minimal effort, leaving them writhing in agony.
Gu Pei could scarcely believe his eyes, his jaw threatening to drop as he processed the astonishing display before him. His mind echoed with expletives, his astonishment bordering on disbelief.
Before long, more than ten hooligans, including Brother Long, lay sprawled on the ground, their cries of pain filling the air.
Setting aside his bowl of instant noodles, Su Ye erupted into applause, his excitement palpable. “Bravo! Boss, you’re incredible!”
Since Boss arrived in Jin City, she had been refining her character and temperament. It had been a while since Gu Pei witnessed her meting out such a lesson.
A glance from Gu Jin was all it took to silence Su Ye, who grinned sheepishly.
At last, Gu Pei grasped Su Ye’s implication.
It wasn’t Gu Jin who needed to be cautious; it was Brother Long and his cronies.
As Gu Jin surveyed the incapacitated hooligans, she noticed Brother Long reaching for a knife on the ground. Disdain etched across her cold countenance, she swiftly brought her foot down, crushing his fingers beneath her heel.
“Ahh!” Brother Long’s grip faltered in agony, and the knife clattered to the ground.
“Done playing? Or do you need more?” Gu Jin’s voice dripped with contempt.
Gu Jin deftly kicked the knife aside, sending it skidding towards the mouth of the hooligan who had earlier taunted her to play with Brother Long.
The hooligan crumpled to the ground, clutching his knee in agony, unable to rise as he watched the knife edge dangerously close to his gaping mouth, beads of sweat trickling down his brow in sheer terror.
“Do you still want to play?” Gu Jin’s voice dripped with menace as she casually retrieved the knife from the ground, twirling it lazily between her fingers.
As her gaze swept over the trembling hooligans, a palpable sense of dread seemed to settle over them, intensifying the pain in their joints and rendering them incapable of standing firm.
One by one, they shook their heads vigorously, their voices trembling with fear.
“We’re done, we’re done playing!”
“We were wrong. Please forgive us and let us go.”
Brother Long, taken aback by Gu Jin’s ferocity, cursed inwardly. Were all the pretty girls these days as fierce in combat?
Recalling the previous encounter with a member of the Gu family, who had initially appeared gentle and delicate before decimating their crew, Brother Long seethed with frustration. They had ended up detained for an extended period after the police were called.
Clutching his throbbing hand, Brother Long shot Xu Niannian a venomous glare. “What are you waiting for? Call the cops!”
Haunted by their previous ordeal, Brother Long resolved to preemptively contact the authorities this time, hoping to shift the blame onto their adversaries.
