"Huh, are you saying you don't want to pay?" The man bellowed as he stared down arrogantly at Helian Wei Wei.

Helian Wei Wei did not fear him and retorted, "If anything, it's you who should be paying me."

"I should be paying you?" The man laughed hysterically as if he had heard a preposterous joke. Then, he attempted to push Helian Wei Wei, warning her, "Do you know who I am? In the provincial capital, no one in their right mind would dare to ask me to pay!" historical

Helian Wei Wei stood unmoving and steadily like a sturdy tree, and cheekily said, "That's because you haven't met me yet."

When he heard her, his entire body seemingly combusted with fury. He walked up to her and violently grabbed her clothes. Then, he spoke with a deep voice, "What did you say? I dare you to say it again!"

When he grabbed Helian Wei Wei's collar, Baili Jia Jue's eyes instantly turned deathly cold.

If it were not for Helian Wei Wei grappling Baili Jia Jue's hand, the man would have been shred into a million pieces.

The reason Helian Wei Wei stopped him was not that she wanted to go easy on the man, but she saw a familiar face walking toward them.

When the person saw her, he immediately shouted excitedly, "Boss! What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at the imperial..."

"Chen Liang," Helian Wei Wei hastily interrupted him with a little grin. Then, she shrugged her shoulders and hintingly said, "Does it seem like an appropriate time for a reunion now?"

Chen Liang admitted that he was not thinking straight. He did not want to socialize with the officials, but his father's position was too high, so everyone in the provincial capital groveled to him. As he was forced to eat and drink with them every single day, he was beginning to feel irritated. I can't believe I saw her just as I came downstairs!

And... Someone is grabbing her collar?

This is unlike her usual self!

When we were at the academy, she could take on ten people by herself!

Yet, no violence is being used now... This isn't like her at all!

Despite it, he could not swallow his anger when he saw his Boss being grabbed by the collar.

Without any hesitation, Chen Liang charged in and kicked the man!

He had always been hot-tempered. Born in a family with generations of generals, dilly-dallying was not in his blood.

The powerful kick distorted the man's face. As he held onto the wooden round table, he roared furiously, "You bunch of lowly villagers! How dare you hit me? All of you must be blind as a bat! Everyone, take them down!"

However, no one dared to lay their hands on them.

The man hit the table impatiently and repeated, "I said take them down for me!"

"Master Liao, this..." The tavern's owner edged toward the man, seemingly wanting to say something to him.

Master Liao swung his arm and pushed the owner away, yelling, "Don't waste my breath! Peasants, I'll let you know right now! My father is the current magistrate, whatever I said is the law in this provincial capital. If you want to escape peacefully, you better kneel on the ground and bow your head three times now. Or else, I'll send my people to arrest you!"

"Heh, I was wondering who you are." Chen Liang chuckled and jeeringly said, "You're just the son of an insignificant magistrate."

"You better believe I can end your life, right here and now!" Young Master Liao was used to tyrannizing the provincial capital all these years. Every time he brought up his father's name, the people would cower with fear.
