Su Qingning cried in Lin Xiao's arms for some time before her frantic heart gradually calmed down. At last, her mind wasn't a complete blank anymore.

At that moment, Lin Xiao was carrying her into a private room to the side.

But just because Su Qingning was safe didn't mean Lin Xiao would act like nothing had happened. Lin Xiao had already sworn to kill that piece of trash, Xue Jingdong. A nobody like Xue Wenbing was even less of a concern.

Yes, Lin Xiao was about to start a massacre.

First, however, he needed to make sure Su Qingning was settled comfortably.

"Honey, are you okay?" Lin Xiao asked softly.

Su Qingning looked up at Lin Xiao and gave a gentle nod.

Looking at her swollen, peach-blossom eyes, Lin Xiao suppressed the killing intent raging in his heart and spoke even more tenderly. "I'm sorry you had to go through that."

Su Qingning shook her head. "It's not your fault. They went too far!"

"Yes, they went too far. It's all over now, though. You rest here for a bit. I have to take care of something," Lin Xiao said dotingly.

Su Qingning hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay... but come back quickly!"

It was clear she was still terrified. Lin Xiao didn't want to leave her side either, but those two pieces of trash had yet to be dealt with. He had to go.

"Don't worry, I'll be right back," Lin Xiao said with a gentle smile.

Su Qingning hummed in reply.

Lin Xiao stood up, gently patted her head, and then turned to leave the room. The instant the door closed behind him, a terrifying killing intent erupted from his eyes.

Zhuo Bufan was standing guard right outside the door. "Mr. Lin, that man has been moved to the restroom. No one can get in now."

"Good. Stand guard at this door. Don't let anyone in," Lin Xiao ordered coldly.

The bone-chilling tone made Zhuo Bufan shiver. He felt the intense killing intent radiating from Lin Xiao, along with a terrifying, oppressive aura. Zhuo Bufan had been the manager of Chunyu Pavilion for four years and had certainly met his share of powerful people, but he had never felt such a dreadful pressure from anyone else.

He had truly underestimated this young man. Perhaps he was far more terrifying than he had ever imagined.

Lin Xiao turned and entered the restroom. When he opened the door, agonized screams were still echoing from within. Xue Wenbing, with seven or eight of his ribs broken by Lin Xiao's kick, was crumpled on the floor like a dog. The piece of trash from the Cherry Blossom Country hadn't fared any better; Lin Xiao's earlier kick had shattered his "family jewels." He was now curled up in a ball, shrieking in pain.

Lin Xiao closed the restroom door and stared coldly at the two men before him.

When Xue Wenbing saw Lin Xiao, he ignored the excruciating pain and roared, "Fuck! You filthy beggar, you dare hit me? I've already called my dad, and he's notified Bai Xiangqian! They'll be here any minute, and then we'll see how you die!"

He continued, "And let me tell you, this is Kishida Ichiro, a member of one of the four great families of the Cherry Blossom Country! You hit him, so you can just wait for your fucking death sentence!"

Lin Xiao, who had been planning to kill this scumbag immediately, suddenly changed his mind. He walked over to Xue Wenbing with a cold, indifferent gaze and looked down on him.

"Do you know how Xue Jingdong died?" he asked unexpectedly.

"You filthy beggar... Y-You killed my cousin?"

"That's right."

Xue Wenbing's expression froze. His already pale face turned ghastly white in an instant, utterly devoid of color. A sliver of genuine fear finally appeared in his eyes as he stared at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao let out a cold laugh. "Don't worry, though. You'll be joining him soon enough."

"Fuck you! You filthy beggar, you lay another finger on me, and I'll have your whole family buried with you!"

Lin Xiao looked at him as if he were a moron. "What? You think your Xue Family is better than your cousin's?"

BOOM!

Those words hit Xue Wenbing like a baseball bat to the head. The terror in his eyes intensified, and his body began to tremble, though it was unclear if it was from pain or fear.

Just as Lin Xiao was about to speak, the restroom door was suddenly kicked open. A powerfully built man with an imposing aura burst in.

When Xue Wenbing saw him, he immediately shrieked, "Dad! It was this filthy beggar who beat me! Kill him! Kill him for me!"

The newcomer was none other than Xue Wenbing's father, Xue Shaoxiong. Hearing his son's words, he became instantly furious and whirled around to glare at Lin Xiao.

"You filthy beggar, get on your knees and apologize to my son!"

Lin Xiao laughed. "And what if I don't?"

"Then I'll have you killed!" Xue Shaoxiong bellowed.

Lin Xiao shrugged. The next second, he brought his foot down and crushed Xue Wenbing's head.

CRUNCH!

A sickening, muffled sound echoed through the restroom, followed by the horrifying sight of brain matter splattering everywhere. Xue Shaoxiong, who had been so aggressive just a moment ago, froze in place as if he were paralyzed, his eyes staring unblinkingly at Xue Wenbing's headless body.

After a silence that lasted less than three seconds, a heart-wrenching scream tore through the restroom, a sound so shrill it could have come from a demon in hell. With trembling hands, Xue Shaoxiong cradled what was left of his son.

"My son! My son!" he roared.

But there was no reply. Xue Wenbing had taken his final leave of this world.

Just then, the restroom door was pushed open again. Xue Shaoxiong was startled when he saw the person who entered.

Then he bellowed, "Bai, you're just in time! Hurry, arrest this murderer for me! Execute him! Execute him!"

Indeed, the newcomer was Bai Xiangqian.

Xue Shaoxiong's eyes were bloodshot, like those of a thoroughly enraged beast—wild and vicious.

Bai Xiangqian was about to speak when he suddenly spotted Lin Xiao. The moment he saw him, Bai Xiangqian knew that he was involved in this incident.

Seeing Bai Xiangqian's lack of reaction, Xue Shaoxiong roared again, "Bai, what are you gawking at? Can't you see my son has been murdered? The killer is right in front of you! Arrest him! Have him executed!"

Bai Xiangqian ignored him. Instead, he turned to Lin Xiao and asked respectfully, "Mr. Lin, are you alright?"

Lin Xiao nodded. "I'm fine."

Hearing their exchange, Xue Shaoxiong was stunned. He never would have imagined that this filthy beggar actually knew Bai Xiangqian, and from the looks of it, their relationship was quite good. But he couldn't care about that anymore. Even if Bai Xiangqian knew the beggar, all he wanted at this moment was Lin Xiao dead.

"Bai, I'll give you a hundred million! Just arrest him for me!"

Bai Xiangqian shot Xue Shaoxiong a look of disgust and was about to speak.

Just then, the piece of trash from the Cherry Blossom Country, who was still crumpled on the floor, spoke with a sinister voice, "This filthy beggar cannot die just yet!"
