Yang Leshan sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly hid behind Chen Xuan, too frightened to make a sound.

Chen Xuan remained expressionless and said coldly, "Don't make me say it again!"

Damn it!

Han Tianhua clearly lost his patience and cursed, "You're still daring to mess with me, you punk..."

Smack!

Before Han Tianhua could finish his sentence, Chen Xuan grabbed him by the throat.

"How dare you! Let go of President Han!"

Yang Yi swung his fist towards Chen Xuan.

But Chen Xuan easily caught his wrist and twisted it forcefully.

Crack!

He broke Yang Yi's wrist, causing him to scream in agony.

Yang Leshan was startled but didn't show much emotion; everything was under Chen Xuan's control.

"If you don't want to die, apologize now!"

Chen Xuan clutched Han Tianhua's throat and shouted coldly.

Han Tianhua felt like he was about to suffocate, no longer daring to be arrogant, "Fine, I... I apologize, just let go of me."

Only then did Chen Xuan withdraw his hand, "Don't bother me again, scram!"

Han Tianhua rubbed his neck and hurriedly retreated three meters away, "Kid, you'd better wait for me!"

Leaving a vicious threat behind, he quickly ran towards the Ma Family entrance with Yang Yi.

Yang Leshan hurriedly asked, "Chen Xuan, who was that guy? What formula was he asking for just now?"

"It's none of your business, best not to ask," Chen Xuan said coldly, "Leave now while you can; he's probably gone to the Ma Family to get people."

"Ma Family?" Yang Leshan's face turned pale with surprise, "Could he be the young master of the Ma Family? Then why did you just... Chen Xuan, what should we do now?"

"I told you it's none of your concern, don't get involved," Chen Xuan replied expressionlessly, "Leave quickly while you can."

"I'm not leaving!" Yang Leshan said firmly, "In this situation, asking me to escape alone is treating me like a coward."

"Even if I can't escape death today, I'll die with you!"

Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, "Then go inside and stay put; if things get messy later, I won't be able to protect you."

Yang Leshan hurriedly ran into the store, grabbed a fruit knife for self-defense, and kept a close watch outside.

She was poised to rush out and fight desperately at any moment.

Soon, Han Tianhua returned with more than a dozen Ma Family guards, aggressively arriving at the barbecue shop entrance.

Passersby quickly fled, afraid of getting caught in trouble.

Yang Leshan was trembling with fear at this moment, gripping the fruit knife tightly, ready to fight anyone who dared to come in.

"Kid, you were pretty cocky just now! Try threatening me again!"

Han Tianhua sneered with a cold and evil smile, "Kneel down now and beg for mercy, hand over the formula willingly, and I might spare your life!"

Chen Xuan calmly smoked a cigarette and sneered, "You spoiled brats only know how to play such tricks."

"If you're going to fight, do it quickly, don't waste my time doing business tonight."

Damn it!

Han Tianhua cursed coldly, "You're insolent even as death approaches! I'll wreck your shop first and see if you dare to be stubborn again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved to the Ma Family guards behind him, "Go ahead, smash this barbecue shop to pieces!"

"Stop!"

At this moment, a stern shout came from not far away.

Chen Xuan and Han Tianhua turned their heads simultaneously.

They saw a young woman getting out of a red Bentley.

It was none other than the eldest daughter of the Ling Family, Ling Yanran.

Hmm?

Han Tianhua frowned slightly, suddenly feeling cautious, "Miss Ling, why are you stopping me?"

Hmph!

Ling Yanran coldly glanced at Han Tianhua and walked straight to Chen Xuan, wearing a warm smile.

"Mr. Chen, we meet again."

"Rest assured, they won't dare act rashly with me here."

Ling Yanran finished speaking and coldly looked at Han Tianhua, "Listen up, Mr. Chen is my friend, if you dare hurt him, you will be at odds with my Ling Family!"

Whew!

Han Tianhua widened his eyes in shock, filled with disbelief.

He didn't expect Chen Xuan to be acquainted with the Ling Family's eldest daughter, it caught him off guard.

Chen Xuan had anticipated Ling Yanran's sudden appearance; he was ready to teach Han Tianhua and his people a lesson.

"Miss Ling, this kid has a personal vendetta with me, I hope you won't intervene."

"My grandfather is the head of the Ma Family, so I hope you weigh it carefully, can you represent the entire Ling Family?"

Han Tianhua sneered, deliberately threatening Ling Yanran with the Ma Family's status.

As both were top families in Jiangbei City, he assumed Ling Yanran wouldn't dismiss the Ma Family lightly.

"Oh really, then can the old man represent the Ling Family?"

An aged yet authoritative voice sounded, as the elderly Mr. Ling approached, leaning on his gemstone-embedded ivory cane.

The Ling family's steward followed closely behind, accompanied by two bodyguards.

Sigh!

Han Tianhua gasped in shock, not expecting even the elderly Mr. Ling to come personally...
