Chapter 265 Distressed Qian Lan? Need the man of the house?
Boom!
Before they could react, Yu Lei swiftly sprang into action, her moves executed with precision. With a powerful kick to the sneering man's shin, she followed up with a swift punch to the other's gut.
The first man exclaimed, "What the...?"
His companion, equally bewildered, attempted to say, "Hey, we were just..."
But before the second one could finish, Yu Lei unleashed a spectacular roundhouse kick on each of them in succession, leaving both of them speechless, tumbling to the ground with a painful thud.
"Oh, that's gotta hurt!" someone in the restaurant muttered, followed by nervous laughter.
In a matter of moments, the restaurant descended into chaos. Patrons scrambled to leave, chairs were overturned, and plates clattered to the floor as they hurriedly made their way to the exit.
WHAM! POW! CRASH!
The raucous sounds of the scuffle reverberated throughout the restaurant, punctuated by yelps of pain and the thud of blows landing.
Zhang Wei sat at his table, his lips twitching in a mixture of amusement and surprise, as he covered half of his face with his hand and sighed. He had only intended for Yu Lei to teach them a lesson, but her approach had turned out to be far more direct and brutal than he had anticipated.
"Ouch!" cried one of the men, grimacing in pain, clutching his arm tightly as Yu Lei deftly twisted it.
"I hope you've learned your lesson about bothering innocent people," she scolded, her voice carrying a mix of sternness and satisfaction.
The other man managed to stammer out, "Sister, we won't... do it again, we promise!"
With that, Yu Lei released her grip on their arms, and the two men scrambled to their feet, hastily making their exit, wincing and nursing their bruises.
By this point, the rest of the patrons had fled the restaurant in a hurry, leaving Yu Lei and Zhang Wei alone amidst the aftermath of her fierce display. The once cozy dining space was now a chaotic scene of overturned chairs and scattered utensils.
Zhang Wei couldn't help but chuckle despite himself, watching as Yu Lei stood tall, her face a mix of pride and satisfaction.
She suddenly turned around, her face carrying a warm, gentle smile as she walked back toward him.
"How was it? Did I do something wrong?" she inquired, a hint of excitement in her voice.
Zhang Wei, still trying to stifle his laughter, stared at her face beaming with pure joy.
Then, while covering half of his face with his hand, he motioned with his other hand toward the empty chair in front of him and said, "Take a seat..." he managed between chuckles...

As the two men stumbled outside, they let out deep sighs of relief, one of them grimacing and clutching his throbbing hand as if trying to reassemble his scattered wits. "Arghhh! Damn, why did we have to get beaten up!? That woman is crazy!" He cursed, his voice filled with a mix of pain and frustration.
The other one managed an awkward, nervous chuckle, "That's an understatement. Let's not waste any time; we need to report to the chief."
The first man nodded vigorously in agreement, hastily retrieving his phone to inform their chief about the failed mission and their physical defeat.
"... Is it true...?" A mysterious voice crackled from the other side.
"Yes, I fear our cover might be blown," the first man, known as Alpha, confessed.
"..."
A tense silence followed, leaving them both on edge, wondering how their highly skilled team could have been outwitted so easily.
"Abandon the mission...."
*beep* *...beep*
The line disconnected, and Alpha let out a frustrating curse, "Damn it! So we got beaten for nothing!?"
Beta, the second man, chuckled, "Brother, let's get out of here before she decides to come after us again."
Alpha felt a shiver run down his spine and nodded in agreement. They swiftly packed their bags, preparing to leave the country and head towards colder, less hostile territory.
The people of Hanland were too fierce, and they couldn't endure this torment any longer.

As the chaotic events unfolded on one side of the city, a different kind of tension hung heavily in the air on the opposite end.
Two pairs of eyes remained stubbornly awake, defying the oppressive silence of the dead of night.
Mo Yuxin, weary from the passage of time, finally rose from the couch, her voice tinged with resignation as she implored, "Mom, it's already 4 o'clock. Mo Chen won't return until morning. You should get some rest."
Qian Lian, her eyes fixed on the featureless gray of the wall, reminded her daughter, "Xinxin, you have school tomorrow. It's time for you to sleep as well."
With an internal curse, Mo Yuxin wrestled with the heavy knowledge of the unspoken events that had occurred at the park yesterday, events that could hold the key to Mo Chen's mysterious disappearance.
The prospect of facing Zhang Wei once more to seek answers left her with an unsettling unease, her spine tingling with trepidation.
"I can't sleep, Mom," Mo Yuxin confessed with a hint of worry in her voice. "I need to tell you what happened at the park. It might be connected to Mo Chen."
Qian Lian's eyes, still locked on the empty wall, widened with unease. "Tell me everything, Xinxin." n-.O-/V-.e/.l//b/-I..n
As Mo Yuxin began recounting the events, the room felt as if it were holding its breath, absorbing the weight of her words.
The tale unfolded in whispered tones, a secret shared between a mother and her daughter, with the unspoken hope that it might lead them to the truth.
"Is that so..." Qing Lan whispered, her voice heavy with concern, after absorbing the whole truth. An unsettling feeling of impending darkness crept over her, and it intensified after hearing her daughter's account. She clutched her hands tightly, her knuckles white with anxiety. With steely determination, she spoke, "Xinxin, get ready. We must go and meet this man named Zhang Wei!"
Mo Yuxin could see the resolve in her mother's eyes but couldn't bear the thought of her going out into the night's uncertainty. "Mom, no, wait! I'll go and investigate properly. You don't need to go outside!"
Tears welled up in Qing Lan's eyes, "Xinxin, I can't sit here and do nothing while your brother is in danger. We have to find him."
It took nearly half an hour of persuasive efforts, assurances, and hugs, but Mo Yuxin managed to coax Qian Lan back into her room, letting out a sigh of relief.
"Zhang Wei..." she muttered the name, her voice tinged with a mix of worry and frustration. "Ugh! Mo Chen, why didn't you listen to me? I told you to avoid unnecessary conflicts."
This night, Mo Yuxin found herself unable to sleep, keeping a vigilant watch and making sure Qian Lan didn't act recklessly.
At this moment, she wished there was another man in her family, someone who could take charge of the situation. Sadly, their father had long passed away, leaving them to face the trials of life on their own.
The weight of their responsibility pressed heavily upon her as she guarded the entrance, waiting for the break of dawn and the start of a new day filled with uncertainties.
