CHAPTER 217

Seeing that she had managed to escape, Duan Tian turned around to beat the person that interfered in his business.

Just as he turned to face the person a heavy blow landed on his face.

PUNCH!

"Ahhh!!"

It was at this point that Li Jing took like to look at her saviour. "Ye Cheng." He took one look at her dishevelled hair and a dark glint flashed in his eyes.

Without saying much to her, Ye Cheng turned back to face the culprit behind her messed up, state. He was not going to have mercy on him.

How could he think of sleeping with her? Unknown to Duan Tian, Ye Cheng had heard a bit of their conversation as he was walking towards where they were.

He felt so disgusted by the things that had come out of Duan Tian"s mouth and was ready to deal with him.

"You, how dare you hit me. I can sue you for this," Duan Tian threatened, pointing a finger at Ye Cheng as the other one held his bleeding nose.

Ye Cheng smiled when he saw the blood oozing out but he wasn"t done yet. He was going to beat the ingrate to a pulp.

He took several steps forward, and with each stride, came a dangerous look as the aura he exuded made his prey feel so weak and small before him.

If only one punch from Ye Cheng could make Duan Tian bleed, the latter wasn"t willing to wait to find out what was in store for him.

"Stay back. Stay back. Do not take one step closer," Duan Tian threatened with a shaky voice. He knew he was doomed and nothing would stop Ye Cheng but if he could probably threaten him…

"Or what?" Ye Cheng"s eyes darkened and within the twinkle of an eye, he was already standing in front of Duan Tian.

"I… I will."

"You would do nothing." Duan Tian"s eyes widened when he saw the wicked smile on Ye Cheng"s face grow wider but before he could escape, Ye Cheng caught hold of his outstretched hand and broke his fingers before impaling him with his punches.

Li Jing who was still in shock about how things suddenly changed could not believe her eyes.

It was not like she did not want Duan Tian to suffer, in fact, she hoped Ye Cheng would do more than just beat him, breaking his limbs or ending his generation would have been a perfect punishment.

The only problem now was that seeing it first hand was still as shocking. That was when she knew she had not yet prepared her mind for it.

Minutes later, Li Jing heard several footsteps heading their way and that was when she peeled her gaze away from the work Ye Cheng was doing to see who had arrived.

Standing at some distance away from her was Tang Zixin and four other men in suit.

Of which one of the men wore a black with a touch of silver suit to differentiate him from the rest and he was standing at the side of Tang Zixin while the other three men in a black suit, stood behind them.

Li Jing did not know who the man was but from the look of things, he was also an important person. At this point, Ye Cheng pulled away from Duan Tian, leaving him to fall on the ground and turned around to look at the men.

"How the h.e.l.l did this good for nothing get into the VIP lounge?" He did not ask anyone in particular but his gaze was locked on the man at Tang Zixin"s side.

"My apologies Master Ye. It is all a mistake," The man quickly apologized with his head bowed down.

"Manager, we would have to file a report to the owner of this restaurant. You are running a bad job here," Tang Zixin threatened the man.

He quickly changed direction and bowed his head to Tang Zixin.

"Please master Tang. Please forgive us. This won"t happen again."

What had happened was that after Yer Cheng left, Tang Zixin had followed shortly after. He arrived when Ye Cheng had broken Duan Tian"s fingers. He could already guess that there was a big problem going on seeing the scattered hair of Li Jing and the freezing aura that was seeping out of Ye Cheng with every blow he gave Duan Tian.

Without wasting much time, he had asked for the manager of the restaurant and went to bring him, that was when they arrived at the scene.

The reason why Duan Tian who was not a wealthy person was now present at the VIP area was a good enough reason to have the manager sacked that was why he was pleading to the two men.

"How can such a prestigious restaurant, let just anyone enter the VIP lodge and insult the VIP guests like that?" Ye Cheng questioned again. This time around he made his point known by pointing at Li Jing"s scattered hair. "He is not even worthy of eating here." Ye Cheng had said that to insult him further and hurt his ego.

"I am really so sorry sir. I promise never to let such nonsense repeat itself again sir. Please, sir." The manager apologized once more.

"Ma"am, my sincerest apologies for the inconvenience. Please forgive our poor services." Being the gentle and kind girl Li Jing was, she nodded at him but did not say anything much.

The manager averted his gaze from her after getting her reply and looked at Duan Tian who was sprawled on the ground like a drunkard.

The truth was that the manager and Duan Tian were friends. He had invited Duan Tian for dinner and decided to treat him as a VIP guest since he was the manager.

This was to make up for the lost days they couldn"t hang out together as friends. Only for Duan Tian to come and cause problems for him at his place of work.

The glare he gave to Duan Tian when their eyes met showed his strong disapproval. "Guards, throw this man outside the restaurant and far away from the vicinity."
