Chapter Thirty-One: The Gloomy Man

  Peng Yu didn't move, but his eyes became increasingly gloomy. He coldly looked at Liu Fei and found that Liu Fei was also staring at him with anger-filled eyes. Peng Yu burst out laughing and pointed at Liu Fei, saying: "You little brat, you will regret what you said today for the rest of your life."

  Liu Fei raised an eyebrow and smiled calmly, with a nonchalant expression: "Make me regret? It seems your weight is not enough!"

  Peng Yu suddenly snapped his fingers without warning.

  In the blink of an eye, those migrant workers who were originally holding hammers and pickaxes suddenly threw away their tools and rushed to Peng Yu's back, forming a line, and a wave of invisible pressure enveloped Liu Fei. These people who were originally dressed as migrant workers no longer had any rustic air about them, standing behind Peng Yu, their bodies straight and full of explosive power, like hunting dogs waiting for their master's command at any moment.

  Peng Yu turned his head and looked back, nodding in satisfaction. He sneered at Liu Fei and said, "Do you still think I'm not impressive now?"

  Liu Fei's eyes never changed from start to finish, and his face maintained the same carefree expression as when he first started, not putting Peng Yu in his sights at all.

  At this time, Ye Piaoxue pulled Liu Fei's sleeve from behind and said: "Hey, you go, you can't control this matter. At worst, I'll fight with them, I absolutely won't let them occupy this place."

  Liu Fei didn't turn around, he just said lightly: "I'll take care of this matter, because I'm a policeman."

  His voice was not loud, but very firm. Although the scene was very noisy, most of the onlookers heard his words and began to discuss them. Some said Liu Fei was asking for trouble, daring to provoke someone from the Yindu Group, as if anyone in Nanping City didn't know about the group's deep background. They thought that wherever they set their sights, no one could stop them. Others said that Police Officer Liu Fei had guts and a strong sense of justice, daring to confront the Yindu Group head-on.

  Ye Piaoxue stopped talking after hearing Liu Fei's words. But in her heart, she silently said a sentence: You really can't control this matter.

  Peng Yu also heard Liu Fei's words and burst out laughing: "Haha, so you're a cop! I thought you were some kind of immortal. Which police station are you from? Never mind, even if I asked, it would be useless. To be honest, my brother is the director of the Municipal Bureau, and Zheng, the director of the Qiaoxi District Branch, is my sworn brother. If you want to stay in the police system, you'd better get out of here quickly. Otherwise, without me lifting a finger, I'll make sure you lose your job!"

  Liu Fei gave Peng Yu a cold glance, not bothering to waste any words on him. He thought it was unnecessary to talk nonsense with someone like that: "Scram!" One word expressed his intention.

  Peng Yu was furious. Although he was angry just now, he also knew that Liu Fei was not an ordinary person, so he suppressed his anger and wanted to resolve the matter peacefully with Liu Fei, but unexpectedly, Liu Fei didn't care about him at all, and simply waved his hand dismissively.

  In an instant, the dozen or so migrant workers dressed as thugs rushed towards Liu Fei. In their eyes, Liu Fei was like a piece of tender meat on a chopping board, emitting a savory aroma. They all knew that whoever performed well at this time would receive more bonuses from Boss Peng when they returned.

  Onlookers retreated one after another. They knew that although the scene was lively and explosive, they didn't want to be affected themselves. Some kind-hearted old men and women began to worry about Liu Fei, after all, the other side had too many people, and they looked very fierce.

  Liu Fei let out a long sigh: "Alas, I've already promised Shadow that I won't easily take action, but you guys are forcing me to make a move! Forget it, I won't use my hands to fight with you guys. This shouldn't be considered as going back on my promise to Shadow, right?"

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  "Ah yo! Ah yo! Ah yo!"

  After a dizzying and chaotic moment, the scene fell silent.

  Everyone was stunned and dumbfounded.

  Ye Piaoxue was also somewhat surprised, she looked at the thugs rolling and wailing on the ground in front of her, then looked at the figure standing calmly like a mountain in front of her. Her heart, which had been calm as water, suddenly had some ripples. But her face quickly returned to normal, still maintaining the coldness and arrogance from before.

  After a while, the scene suddenly burst into a warm applause. Although the crowd did not dare to confront Peng Yu and the Yindu Group, seeing Liu Fei take down more than a dozen of Yindu Group's thugs in the blink of an eye, from whatever aspect, most of the onlookers thought they should applaud.

  Facing the applause, Liu Fei didn't have a single expression, only his cold and sharp eyes looked at Peng Yu again: "Get out!"

  Peng Yu felt as if his face had been slapped by the guy in front of him, who was even more arrogant than he was. His face turned extremely pale with shame. He thought to himself that after all these years of being a big shot in Nanping City, today he was actually outdone by some young punk he didn't know where came from. His anger ignited and he glared at Liu Fei with a fierce killing intent: "You dare to give me your name? I'll make sure to find you later and have some fun."

  Liu Fei still had that airy and nonchalant look, with a hint of disdain and indifference on his face: "Liu Fei, Bridge West District Police Station."

  Peng Yu gritted his teeth and pointed at Liu Fei, saying coldly: "Alright, Liu Fei, I've remembered your name. You'd better remember mine too - I'm Peng Yu, the general manager of Yindu Group. My dad is Peng Weiguo, the chairman of Yindu Group. When the time comes, you'll get to experience what it's like to be worse off than dead!" Then, he turned to Ye Piaoxue behind Liu Fei and said: "You're ruthless enough, Ye, to find someone as vicious as this pretty boy. Hmph, when the time comes, I'll definitely find someone to take care of you!"

  After he finished speaking, he walked away without looking back. The guys who were originally lying on the ground and wailing also got up one after another, limping and supporting each other as they followed Peng Yu.

  The crowd on the scene burst into warm applause again.

  Liu Fei turned his head to look at the lovely little girl Xiangxiang Ye Piaoxue in his arms and said faintly, "Be careful of that Peng Yu, he has a somewhat sinister temperament!"

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and parted the crowd, disappearing into the vast night.

  Ye Piaoxue gazed at Liu Fei's gradually disappearing back, her cold and proud expression unchanged. She didn't feel even a hint of gratitude towards Liu Fei. Because up until now, she still didn't think that Liu Fei was genuinely trying to help her. This was because in the past when she was in university, there was a rich young man who had orchestrated a heroic rescue scene just to pursue her. At the time, she had been quite moved and had a good impression of the handsome and generous man, so she agreed to go on a date with him. However, the day before their date, by chance, she discovered that everything had been staged by the young man. She resolutely cancelled the date, which was also her first date in life. From then on, she never trusted any man again.

  "Come on, little ones, let's go back. Sister will cook porridge for you to drink!" Ye Piaoxue led the group of over a dozen children into the orphanage and locked the door behind them. But her heart was filled with conflicting thoughts: The children were at an age where they needed nutrition to grow, but she could only provide them with barely enough food to fill their stomachs. Should she consider selling this place? If she did, at least the children's nutritional needs would be guaranteed, but these kids still had to attend elementary school, middle school, and university in the future. If she sold it for just over a million, it probably wouldn't be enough to cover expenses, not to mention finding a new place to live... At this moment, Ye Piaoxue's kind, sensitive, and strong heart was filled with conflicting thoughts.

  In the evening, Ye Piaoxue cooked a big pot of sticky cornmeal porridge for the children, paired with pickles and steamed buns, and had a delicious meal with them. After waiting for all the children to fall asleep, she fell onto her own small bed and fell fast asleep.

  The moonlight is hazy, the night color is deep, and the lights in each household in the city are gradually extinguished. Only the streetlights on both sides of each street emit a dim yellow light, under which the tree shadows are mottled.

  Rumble! Rumble! A strong engine sound gradually approached the Loving Orphanage from a distance, and the voice became clearer. Around 1 am, three excavators, one bulldozer, and one van stopped in front of the gate of the Loving Orphanage. The thick drill head of the excavator only smashed against the wall of the orphanage's main gate a few times, quickly drilling out more than ten holes. Then, a high-powered bulldozer pushed forward, causing the entire gate to collapse with a loud crash. Seven or eight workers rushed out of the vehicles and charged into the Loving Orphanage.
