C14 (1/2)

At that moment, Wang Yuxian must have thought that I was going to be beaten to death. With so many people waving their steel tubes at me, if it wasn't for my physical fitness, I would have already been knocked unconscious.

Wang Yuxian's shout almost tore their throats apart. The baldy and the others stopped.

I saw that Wang Yuxian's face was covered in tears, and shouted at the baldy: ”Didn't you want the protection fee?! ”Sure, I'll give you everything! I'll give you everything!”

After saying that, she took out a stack of money from the counter and threw it to the baldy.

When the baldy saw the money, he grinned: ”Wouldn't have been fine earlier? F * ck! One hundred dollars a week! ”Remember that!”

After saying that, the person who was beaten up by Acting Hu and the rest at noon came over and slapped me twice before they left.

Only then did Wang Yuxian come over to help me up. She looked at the puddle of blood on the ground until her eyes were wide open.

”Wen Zi, are you going to talk to me? Are you alright? ” She was so anxious that he didn't know where to start. He only took out a towel to cover my head from bleeding.

The blow from the bald guy just now was so f * cking heavy. Even now, I still feel like my ears are ringing.

I forced myself to smile and told Wang Yuxian that I was fine and not to worry.

Who knows that she cried even harder and kept scolding me, saying that after seeing so many people still charge up, there must be something wrong with her brain.

Not long after, Acting Hu Zhang Guohua arrived. Seeing my sorry state, he wanted to go and fight those people, but he was scolded by Wang Yuxian.

”Send Zhang Wen to the hospital first. We'll talk about it later!”

Half an hour later, I was lying in a hospital bed, my head freshly stitched and numb.

Wang Yuxian sat at the side with a cold face. Acting Hu and the others looked like they had done something wrong as they lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

Wang Yuxian scolded them: ”I told you guys not to cause any trouble, and you guys just didn't listen. The restaurant has been wrecked, if I did not give Brother Long money, Zhang Wen would have been beaten to death today! ”

No one dared to speak, they could all tell that Wang Yuxian was truly angry.

When Wang Yuxian was angrily going to pay the entrance fee, Li Erzi sneaked over to me and told me that Brother Long was actually a hoodlum in the vicinity who was collecting fees in this area. He had wanted to capture Wang Yuxian for a long time, but the Wang Yuxian had never given him the chance.

I thought that it's no wonder that Wang Yuxian's voice stopped them.

The Wang Yuxian was afraid that it would be inconvenient for me to be alone, so she stayed behind to take care of me. She told the Acting Hu that they would clean up the restaurant when they got back, and would continue operating tomorrow morning.

They all went back without a word.

Before leaving, Acting Hu looked at me deeply with eyes full of complex emotions.

Accompanied by Wang Yuxian, I fell into a deep sleep.

The next day I woke up in pain.

The first thing I felt when I woke up was pain.

After the numbness on his head subsided, there was only pain left.

Wang Yuxian was fast asleep beside my bed, breathing evenly.

I nudged her.

”Did you sleep here last night?” I asked.

”Hmm, there's no bed here. Where else can I sleep?” She turned to straighten her hair.

I felt a warmth rise in my heart.

”Why are you taking care of me?”

She looked at me for a few seconds and sighed. ”If I don't take care of you, who will? You were trying to protect the restaurant from the injuries, right? I will pay for your medical fees and for your losses. I will pay for them too! ”
