Everyone turned their gaze to the spot where Su Ming was standing, their faces showing doubt, feeling that Hao Guanyu was making a fuss over nothing.
They thought this young man, who looked thin and frail, seemingly without the strength to truss a chicken...
Would actually need a group of over twenty people to gang up on him?
If this got out, it would probably invite ridicule from those in the underworld, thinking they were bullying the weak with numbers.
Just then, a commotion came from not far away.
It turned out to be the security guards and waiters inside the Blue Moon Hotel, all coming forward holding various "weapons".
Some had steel pipes, bricks, while others held wine bottles and plates.
"Brother Ming!" the crowd that arrived saw Su Ming and shouted in unison.
There were over a hundred of them, packing the somewhat narrow corridor tightly.
Their loud and orderly voices exuded respect, echoing in the ears of Hao Guanyu's group like morning bells and evening drums.
Making them feel a deafening shock instantly, their hearts trembled violently, and their eyes showed fear.
"Brother Ming, who dares to mess with you?"
Just then, Deng Zhigang stepped forward and asked Su Ming.
It turns out a waiter passing by outside the corridor saw Su Ming's situation in the private room.
Then promptly informed Deng Zhigang of the news.
"Brother Deng, it's this guy, just now Brother Ming punched the guy next to him away and smashed the door open, I happened to be passing by and saw this guy fleeing out of the room in panic."
Just then, a waiter holding a plate in his left hand and a knife and fork in his right approached Deng Zhigang, pointing towards Hao Guanyu's location and said.
Hao Guanyu at this point was sandwiched between Su Ming and Deng Zhigang and his men, while the helpers he called were standing behind Su Ming.
Seeing this, these helpers suddenly broke into a cold sweat, their lips turned white, and their bodies trembled slightly.
Because seeing these over a hundred people now scanning over them with eyes as if ready to devour someone, frightened them to the core.
The advantage in numbers vanished instantly and was even crushed by the other side.
Su Ming usually would often invite these waiters and security guards for drinks and fun.
They were already devoted followers of Su Ming, not hesitating to face any danger for him.
After all, most of them were from humble backgrounds, ordinary folks earning just a few thousand a month.
They knew Su Ming was sent by Wang Guohao and were aware of the terrifying background of the latter.
Despite this, Su Ming was amiable and never acted superior.
Su Ming frequently spent money inviting them to play, blending in with them thoroughly.
Making these security guards and waiters genuinely want to be loyal to Su Ming, repaying his kindness.
Those helpers Hao Guanyu called over, seeing these waiters and security guards eyeing them with a desire to tear them apart.
Quickly, without another word, they turned and fled to the distance.
They were tied to Hao Guanyu only because of mutual interests.
The reason they followed Hao Guanyu was to get more enjoyment and benefits from him.
Now seeing Hao Guanyu provoke public anger, offending so many people.
They no longer dared to help him, promptly abandoning him, turning away.
Hao Guanyu saw this, his face showing anger, and immediately cursed:
"You damn dogs, usually I'm the one spending money on drinks and women for you, and now when I'm in trouble, you leave without even turning back. Utterly shameless!"
The helpers shuddered upon hearing this, afraid that Su Ming and his people would target them.
They promptly increased their running speed, disappearing in the corridor passage in no time.
Deng Zhigang saw this, and immediately understood what was going on.
He then rushed over, grabbed Hao Guanyu's hair, and yanked him to the ground.
"You turtle son, how dare you provoke my Brother Ming, tell me, how should I deal with you?"
Deng Zhigang, ever since returning from a trip to his hometown and associating with Tang Hanyang, known as the "Minister of Jiang City Underworld Organization", had become even more imposing and unruly, increasingly resembling a societal figure on the road.
Hao Guanyu's hair was firmly grasped by Deng Zhigang, feeling intense pain, he couldn't help but scream miserably.
"Elder brother, I was just chatting with friends in the room, and this brother suddenly rushed in, knocking down my two brothers, don't you think I'm being wronged?"
Before Hao Guanyu could finish, Deng Zhigang's arm suddenly exerted force, directly yanking a tuft of hair from his head.
Hao Guanyu instantly wailed in excruciating pain, a blood-red spot already visible on his scalp.
"Who's your brother? This is my Brother Ming! We all call him brother, and you dare to call our brother just a brother, aren't you a bit too bold?"
Deng Zhigang bent down, leaning closer to Hao Guanyu, his face showing a vicious expression, speaking sinisterly.
"Uncles! You're all my uncles, okay? I was just temporarily blinded by greed, failing to recognize who I was messing with. Seeing my sincere remorse, would you please spare me?"
Hao Guanyu seeing Deng Zhigang's palm was about to swing down onto his cheek.
Quickly curled up against the wall, covering his head and face with his hands, he began to beg for mercy.
"Brother Ming, what do you say we do with this guy? Maybe just beat him up and throw him out of the bar!"
Deng Zhigang looked at Hao Guanyu's cowardly and fearful look, a flash of disdain and contempt passed through his eyes.
"That would be too easy for him."
Hao Guanyu originally thought that after a beating he would be able to escape danger.
But Su Ming's indifferent words instantly made his heart sink, turning his face ashen.
Su Ming looked at the unconscious Li Yueming in his arms and continued to speak calmly:
"Do you know who this girl is?"
Only then did Deng Zhigang notice the person in Su Ming's arms, his face changing abruptly, seeming to realize what had happened.
"Brother Ming, could this be..."
"She is Li Guoqiang's daughter, this guy dared to drug her, and then tried to assault her, luckily I arrived in time to save her."
Su Ming spoke calmly.
Hao Guanyu hearing this, his brain was instantly thunderstruck, his body like lead as he collapsed, unable to move.
"Li... Li Guoqiang's daughter?" he murmured, fear evident in his eyes.
There might be many named Li Guoqiang in Longcheng, but Hao Guanyu could see the resemblance between Li Yueming and the prominent figure in her features.
The name Li Guoqiang resonated like thunder throughout Longcheng, being famous in almost every industry.
