“So, you’re not gonna show me, Red Hair, some respect, huh!” The red-haired young man squinted, his voice hard.

“Who do you think you are? Do I even know you? Why would I respect you?” Su Chen remained calm.

“Argh!” Red Hair roared, trying to punch Su Chen in his handsome face.

He hated guys who were better-looking than he was and especially guys who were more bad*ss.

“Oh!” came a cry of pain from someone. It was not from Su Chen, but from the redhead instead.

No one saw how or when he made the move, but the redhead was already holding his nose as he stumbled backward. Crimson blood slipped through the gaps between his fingers and dripped onto the ground.

“B*stard! Guys, get him, all together!” the redhead howled furiously when he saw his blood.

The thugs responded, clenched their fists, and were about to pound Su Chen.

Su Chen too clenched both his fists and started to throw the Hundred Style Fist. His fists flew, and his moves were simple yet crafty. He wasted not a bit of energy.

“Argh argh…” Groan after groan was heard.

In the blink of an eye, all the thugs lay on the floor, crying in pain.

In the KTV on his sister’s birthday, Su Chen had fought against more than ten people alone, but it was because he possessed the brute force given by the Super Strength function from the system.

Now he fought with the Hundred Style Fist, which incorporated more than ten types of martial arts and utilized every single bit of his energy with the utmost efficiency.

The two functions felt entirely different. Although both accomplished the same goal, the latter was more relaxed and felt more invigorating.

[Knocked one down with Hundred Style Fist, proficiency +100]

[Knocked one down with Hundred Style Fist, proficiency +100]

The familiar notifications appeared in his mind.

Su Chen was not satisfied. He set his eyes on the redhead, who was utterly dumbfounded.

But the redhead had no guts. He immediately knelt on the floor when he regained his composure.

“Brother, I’m sorry. It was all my fault. Please be the bigger person and let me go.” The redhead deeply regretted his actions. He did not expect to encounter such an expert in martial arts.

It was even more implausible than a f*cking movie. He did not see clearly what had happened, except all his boys were down.

When Su Chen saw that the redhead had chickened out, he lost all interest in fighting. “I can let you go. Don’t you ever come near me again, or I’ll beat you guys up every time I see you.”

He would earn points for his proficiency every time he beat them up, so he would be more than happy to do that.

“Please don’t! A kung fu master like you wouldn’t wanna bother yourself fighting with the likes of us. I swear, we won’t ever bother you again,” the redhead promised with a glum face.

They always hung around this area. Who knew when they would run into Su Chen? If they were gonna be hammered every time he saw them, then they were doomed.

“I had no choice.Your yellow, blue, green, and red heads agitate me, reminding me of traffic lights. What if they caused traffic accidents?” Su Chen shouted at them, his face stern.

The redhead was startled at what Su Chen said. They did color their hair, but what did it have to do with traffic accidents? Wasn’t he just deliberately finding excuses to beat them up?

The redhead clenched his teeth and said decisively, “We will go to a hairdresser and shave it all off later. Are you satisfied?”

“Tsk!” Su Chen clicked his tongue out of pity. He had never thought that the guy would be so cruel to himself.

Since the redhead had already given in up to this extent, he didn’t feel right to use him to earn points for his proficiency anymore.

Noting Su Chen’s expression, the muscles of the redhead’s face jerked spasmodically, and he thought, This cold-blooded guy is really gonna beat us up every time he sees us!

“Okay, then it’s time for me to leave. Your injuries are not serious. I was careful.” Su Chen grinned.

The corners of the redhead’s mouth twitched. He nodded while laughing dryly.

Su Chen turned and walked away.

The redhead heaved a sigh of relief and tried to get up.

“Oh, right! I almost forgot.” Su Chen suddenly returned.

The redhead shivered in fear and again bent his knees. With a bitter face, he asked carefully, “Brother, you…what do you need?”

“I haven’t asked who hired you,” said Su Chen.

“It was Fu Xuyang. We drank together once or twice. He gave us twenty thousand RMB,” the redhead answered instantly.

“I see.” Su Chen nodded and frowned. “Why do you kneel so easily? Don’t you know there’s gold under a man’s knees? You should have dignity. This is a bad habit. You should change it!”

“Yes, yes…I will, I will.” the redhead did not know whether he should laugh or cry.

“Okay, I’m out of here.” Su Chen left without saying another word.

The redhead stood up only when he was sure that Su Chen was really gone. His face was bitter.

He had been in the “business” for many years, and more than ten boys followed his orders. He thought he was considered a respected figure in his territory. Except for the time his right eye was wounded, this was the only time he had been humiliated so badly.

One of his sidekicks stood up, trembling, beside him while holding his stomach. “This fellow was ferocious. Brother Red Hair, are we really gonna shave our heads?”

“What else are you gonna do? Don’t you wanna stay on this territory anymore?” Red Hair darted him an icy glance.

The rookie quickly shook his head and touched his green hair, reluctant to part with it.

“Fu Xuyang, that sucker! He didn’t tell us that this guy knew kung fu.” Red Hair’s face clouded.

“Yeah! That a**hole made us go through such pain; we won’t give the money back!” the thug with green hair said.

Slap! Red Hair smacked him on the back of his head, almost knocking him off balance. “You are f*cking useless! We absolutely won’t give the money back. We will even beat him up. F*ck, I haven’t gotten the short end of the stick for such a long time.”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Beat him up. We must do that.” The green-haired guy quickly nodded.

The thugs helped each other up. They were all furious. The focus of their rage and grievance had shifted and was now on Fu Xuyang.

“Let’s go! We’ll go to the hospital first. Sh*t, the hell with being careful. My nose feels crooked now.” Red Hair cursed as he walked away while rubbing his nose gently.

It was already dark outside when the bus dropped Su Chen at home.

When he unlocked the door and entered, he heard his sister’s feeble voice before seeing anyone., “Brother, you’re finally home. Prepare some food, please. I’m dying of hunger…”

When Su Chen took a closer look, he saw that his sister and mother were both lying on the couch, staring at him with teary eyes.

“Chenchen—Mommy’s hungry,” Wen Xia said coquettishly.

Su Chen shivered as he felt the goosebumps rising on his arms. Amused, he asked, “Haven’t you guys eaten? Why didn’t you order food delivery?”

“It was Mom’s fault. She said you were gonna be back today, and I wanted to wait for you to cook. I wanted to order some food, but she wouldn’t let me,” Su Mo said angrily.

“Chenchen’s food is so delicious. I haven’t eaten much this past week. Nothing suited my appetite,” Wen Xia gave Su Chen the puppy-dog eyes.

Su Chen put his palm to his face. He was speechless.

Fine—his mom was starting to act silly again.

“Then you’ll have to wait for a while. I’ll start cooking now,” Su Chen walked straight toward the open kitchen.

He opened the fridge and saw that there were lots of ingredients. They were all quite fresh; someone apparently got them ready especially for him.

“Where’s Dad? Why isn’t he back?” asked Su Chen while he handled the ingredients skillfully.

“Your dad is with a client. He’ll not eat at home. Mommy wanted to go with him, but I knew you were both gonna be home, I waited for you guys so that we could eat together,” Wen Xia said with a huge smile on her face, desperately hinting for compliments from her kids.

Su Chen and Su Mo rolled their eyes simultaneously.

“Yeah, right. Like we’re gonna believe you! It must be because Dad was worried that you might cause him trouble, so he asked you to come home first!”
