He visited another store to buy some Silver Needle before happily leaving Tianbao Street.
Xu Xiaoqing, who was by his side, kept giving the jar in Ning Fan’s arms curious looks all the way.
She was very curious; bargaining was one thing, but how could such an ugly jar be worth 500,000?
“Hey, you’ve been staring at my jar since we came out, if you like it that much, you hold it,” Ning Fan said with a chuckle.
“Ugh, I don’t want it.
It’s too ugly, just too ugly,” Xu Xiaoqing shook her head like a bobblehead.
“What’s wrong with ugly?
This is something worth hundreds of thousands,” Ning Fan said somewhat indignantly.
“Valuable and ugly are two different concepts, don’t even talk about hundreds of thousands, even if it’s worth millions, it’s still ugly, I definitely don’t want to hold it.”
As they were talking, Ning Fan suddenly stopped walking.
Xu Xiaoqing asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
As she spoke, she looked around, and her expression also slightly changed.
Tianbao Street was lined with many small stalls and was bustling with people; vehicles could not enter, so they had parked their car in front of a commercial street nearby.
Now, to take a shortcut, they were walking through a dark alley.
The two were halfway through the alley when they suddenly saw several scruffy-looking young men appear in front of them.
“Let’s go back,” Xu Xiaoqing swallowed her saliva and decisively backed away, turning around, but she froze again as soon as she turned.
Unknown to them, someone had also blocked their path from behind.
They were still a few youths dressed like gangsters; the leader was a bulky man with a curved, twisted scar on his face.
The scar, marked by stitches, looked like a ferocious ‘Martial Arts’ sprawled on his face, making one’s skin crawl at the sight of it.
“This is bad, we’ve actually run into a robbery,” Xu Xiaoqing muttered with a distressed expression.
“Robbery?
Heh… I don’t think so,” Ning Fan said with a smile, his eyes sweeping across the man with the scar.
He had never seen this guy before, but among the youths behind him, if he was not mistaken, one was a staff member from the shop they had visited earlier!
Given that, the purpose of these people’s visit clearly did not need any more explaining; it was obviously the previous shop owner wanting to take the jar back!
The scarred man quickly brought his people up to them, looked them over, as well as the jar in their hands, nodded slightly, and smiled, “Looks like we’ve found the right people.”
“You were hired by the shop owner?” Ning Fan asked cheerily.
The scarred man was not surprised and did not bother to hide anything, decisively nodding, “Yes, so if you’re wise, leave the item and get lost.”
From the scarred man’s perspective, anyone sensible would know how to act in such a situation, right?
However, unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Ning Fan burst out laughing, “Are you kidding me?
Do you know how much this thing is worth?
Why on earth would I give it back to you?”
The scarred man was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, “Whether it’s valuable or not is none of my business, and I don’t care what happened between you all before.
I’m just here to do my job.
Be smart and leave the item, get lost on your own.
I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t hit you.”
As he spoke, the scar-faced man suddenly noticed Xu Xiaoqing next to Ning Fan.
Xu Xiaoqing today, although not dressed to kill, had substantial natural beauty.
Due to the hot weather, she was wearing shorts, exposing her long, fair, and beautiful legs.
Her figure wasn’t voluptuous, but it carried an innocent charm, like a bud ready to bloom.
The scar-faced man swallowed hard and added, “Leave the stuff, and get lost yourself.
This little sister needs to stay and keep me company, help me cool off, haha…”
At these words, Ning Fan’s expression instantly turned cold.
Just yesterday, Xu Ruolan had almost been hurt because of him.
He hated it most when these guys targeted people close to him, and now this scar-faced man had the audacity to openly set his sights on Xu Xiaoqing right in front of him—as if he didn’t exist!
But then again, in the scar-faced man’s eyes, Ning Fan was just a helpless piece of meat on the cutting board, totally at his mercy.
“What did you say?” Xu Xiaoqing’s eyes widened, and she yelled instinctively.
But she didn’t realize that her indignant look only made her all the more adorable, intensifying the agitation in the scar-faced man’s heart even further.
“Oh, a little hot-tempered tiger, haha…
I like that,” the scar-faced man laughed excitedly.
At that moment, Ning Fan suddenly handed the can he was holding to Xu Xiaoqing, saying, “Hold this tight, I’ll deal with this mess and then we can go.”
He hadn’t planned to do anything, but since the scar-faced man had targeted someone close to him, and that too right in front of him, he naturally didn’t need to be polite anymore.
Sometimes, when you can fight, there’s no need to talk.
Fists can sometimes be more useful.
“Deal with it?
Ha…
How will you deal with it?” The scar-faced man looked at Ning Fan dismissively, “I’m not afraid to tell you, this alley doesn’t usually have many people passing through.
I didn’t know when I would make my move, but since you walked in yourself,
it’s just your bad luck.
Here, even if you scream your heads off, no one will hear you,” the scar-faced man said confidently.
Upon hearing this, a meaningful smile appeared on Ning Fan’s lips: “Are you sure no one can hear what’s happening here?”
“Of course, how so?” The scar-faced man was unconcerned, but seeing Ning Fan’s strange expression, he suddenly felt an unsettling feeling.
With that in mind, he saw Ning Fan walking towards him.
He walked leisurely, completely devoid of any urgency as if he were strolling in his own backyard.
The scar-faced man felt his authority being challenged, and his brow slightly furrowed as he said, “Gangzi, go teach this guy a lesson, or he’ll suffer when he steps outside.”
Gangzi was one of the scar-faced man’s companions, with a crew cut and small eyes.
Although not as muscular as the scar-faced man, he was still a burly man.
Upon hearing this, Gangzi cracked his knuckles and smirked as he walked towards Ning Fan.
When Gangzi reached Ning Fan, he didn’t speak.
He swung his fist without hesitation, aiming directly at Ning Fan’s face.
The corner of the scar-faced man’s mouth had already begun to curl up slightly, almost imagining what would happen next.
But at that instant, with a muffled sound, Gangzi’s body disappeared!
