Guangtou Qiang quickly reorganized his words and apologized profusely. Finally, Zhao Qingqing lightly hummed in response, seemingly forgiving him.
"Brother, Miss Qingqing has forgiven me," Guangtou Qiang said, looking at Zhang Fan with excitement.
Zhang Fan saw that Zhao Qingqing's expression had indeed improved, and she nodded slightly. Suddenly, his peripheral vision caught the cold and alluring Ling Yanxue staring at him with a peculiar gaze.
Zhang Fan thought for a moment and then asked, "What about her?"
Upon hearing this, Guangtou Qiang hurriedly scurried over to Ling Yanxue and apologized in a subservient manner.
Ling Yanxue was taken aback and looked at Zhang Fan with a hint of gratitude.
"Brother, can I leave now?" After getting Ling Yanxue's forgiveness, Guangtou Qiang ran back to Zhang Fan and asked cautiously.
Facing such a terrifying existence who could destroy him with a mere flick of his wrist, and having offended him just now, Guangtou Qiang felt immense pressure and wanted to extricate himself from this whirlpool as soon as possible.
"En." Zhang Fan was about to nod when he suddenly remembered Gao Duyang, who was once again in a state of bewilderment, standing nearby. He pointed at Gao Duyang and said, "I said earlier that I wanted him to crawl out of here. I have something to attend to now, so I'll leave this to you to handle. Understand?"
"Yes, Brother, don't worry. I'll handle it properly and make sure he crawls out," Guangtou Qiang felt a little pleased with Zhang Fan's request, as Gao Duyang was the culprit of today's events. If it weren't for this guy, how could he have come into conflict with Zhang Fan?
Earlier, he thought Gao Duyang had some connection with Zhang Fan, so he didn't think much of it. Now, seeing they were enemies, it made it even more convenient for him to take action.
"En." After giving the instructions, Zhang Fan pulled Zhao Qingqing along and gestured for Lin Ruyue that it was time to leave.
"Zhang Fan, thank you," Ling Yanxue mustered up her courage and said to Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan glanced at her. He had a good impression of this woman with her stunning long legs. It was a pity, however, that she had been "cabbage snatched by a pig" like Chen Zeyu.
He thought for a moment and then smiled, saying, "If you really want to thank me, then break up with him. I'm doing this for your own good."
He truly said this for Ling Yanxue's benefit, as his past life experiences told him that if Ling Yanxue continued to be with Chen Zeyu, she would ultimately ruin herself.
However, this statement was interpreted completely differently by others. It seemed as though Zhang Fan had feelings for Ling Yanxue and was planning to poach her?
Even the long-legged Ling Yanxue thought this upon hearing his words: "Could it be that he likes me?"
"Likes me" and "having feelings for me" were entirely different concepts, and Ling Yanxue wasn't sure which one she was referring to.
Chen Zeyu, standing beside them, turned ashen-faced upon hearing this. He was being openly poached, yet under the current circumstances, he probably wouldn't dare to utter a peep even if someone made an adult film in front of him.
In fact, Zhang Fan's warning was unnecessary. Judging by Chen Zeyu's behavior just now, Ling Yanxue had already made up her mind to break up with him. She used to think he was a good man, but after today's ordeal, his true colors were revealed. Ling Yanxue saw him for who he really was and naturally wouldn't continue the relationship.
"Let's go," Zhang Fan said simply, and then left with Zhao Qingqing and Lin Ruyue.
As soon as Zhang Fan left the private room, the smiling face of Guangtou Qiang instantly turned frosty. His fierce eyes fixed on the terrified and motionless Gao Duyang, his cold killing intent utterly unconcealed.
If Zhang Fan hadn't ordered Gao Duyang to crawl out, he would have made sure Gao Duyang was carried out today… carried out as a corpse.
"Brother Qiang, I was wrong… I was wrong, spare me!" Gao Duyang, seeing Guangtou Qiang's emotionless eyes sweep over him, was instantly jolted awake. A chill shot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He was so scared that he felt the urge to urinate. He no longer cared about his pride and immediately knelt before Brother Qiang.
"Don't worry. Mr. Zhang said you were to crawl out, and you will crawl out," Guangtou Qiang snorted through his nostrils. He still felt a burning sensation on his face. He had been thoroughly terrified by Lin Ruyue's words earlier.
A congenital grandmaster! What did that mean? Someone who could kill him without blinking. It was because of this kid in front of him that he had offended Zhang Fan and suffered such a blow, losing all face.
"Break both legs first, and one arm too," Guangtou Qiang ordered. The burly men in black behind him immediately stepped forward, grabbed Gao Duyang, who didn't dare to resist.
Thus, his limbs were brutally broken in front of everyone.
Piercing screams shot into the sky, an octave higher than the climax of Asin's 'Love 'Til I Die'. Zhang Fan and the others, who had just walked out of the "Golden Splendor KTV," all heard it.
Zhao Qingqing and Lin Ruyue both trembled, as the screams were so tragic. They couldn't imagine what the person inside had gone through.
Zhang Fan, however, nodded in satisfaction. Guangtou Qiang was quite efficient in handling things.
The people in the private room watched the distorted Gao Duyang with his three broken limbs, their hearts frozen with fear, not daring to make a sound.
"Now, make him crawl out. If he's not out by sunset, drag him out and bury him," Brother Qiang commanded.
Gao Duyang, who had been feigning death, heard this and, as if he had taken Viagra, frantically crawled outwards. However, with three of his five limbs crippled, the remaining one was of little help for crawling. In fact, it even acted as an impediment, increasing friction and making his crawl even more difficult.
Gao Duyang, with one hand, kept scraping his way outward. No one dared to help him.
Although each scrape only moved him forward a few centimeters, he dared not slacken his efforts, for he knew that sunset was fast approaching.
Fortunately, his perseverance saved his life. As the setting sun cast a last trace of crimson glow on the horizon, he finally crawled out of the Golden Splendor KTV. With the only hand he could move, he dialed the number for an ambulance and soon fainted from the excruciating pain.
Inside the private room, Ling Yanxue's friends, Ling Yanxue, and her boyfriend had all left. Oh… wait, the moment they stepped out of the private room, he was already her ex-boyfriend.
Only Brother Qiang, his subordinates, and Sister Liu remained.
The atmosphere was somewhat dead. Guangtou Qiang was still contemplating how to deal with the aftermath. Although he had apologized profusely today, he wasn't sure if Zhang Fan had truly forgiven him. If Zhang Fan were to show up one day in a bad mood and strike him down with a palm, he would have no recourse.
"Brother Qiang, who exactly is that young man? Is he worth you acting like this?" Sister Liu asked.
Although she knew the young man was a sore point for Brother Qiang, she couldn't help but ask, as the psychological impact the young man had on her was too immense.
Given the situation back then, if that young man had truly ordered Brother Qiang to crawl out, she was 80% sure Brother Qiang wouldn't have dared to resist.
What kind of person possessed such power that even Xu Tianlei couldn't achieve it?
The many subordinates behind Brother Qiang also looked on with curiosity. They had followed Brother Qiang for many years and knew he wasn't a coward. Why was he behaving like this?
