Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

Li Xiaoyao's slap immediately swelled up half of Wang Xiaomao's face; several teeth mixed with blood were spat out from his mouth.

Wang Xiaomao staggered several steps backward before steadying himself and turned his head to curse angrily, "Fuck, dare to hit me! Brothers, chop this fucker to death for me."

Li Xiaoyao was not afraid; he casually lifted his hand and said to the ex-soldiers, "The rest is up to you."

The group of ex-soldiers had already been itching to go; they were just enjoying themselves with the ladies when these hooligans suddenly barged in – who wouldn't be pissed?

Despite these hoodlums being covered in dragon and tiger tattoos, armed with daggers and iron rods, in the eyes of these ex-soldiers, they were nothing to be concerned about.

At Li Xiaoyao's command, the ex-soldiers immediately charged at them like a pack of wolves breaking into a flock of sheep.

At first, the hoodlums were waving their daggers and iron rods around, but they quickly realized that these items couldn't harm the ex-soldiers at all.

"Aaaahhhh!!!"

Screams of agony from the hoodlums rose one after another, and then one could see them falling to the ground one by one.

The ex-soldiers had still held back in their attacks; otherwise, with the small frames of these hoodlums, they would probably have been dead by now.

Upon hearing the news, the manager of Huaqing Pool rushed over, but it was somewhat too late. By the time he arrived, a group of hoodlums was already lying motionless on the ground.

Swallowing nervously, the manager looked at Li Xiaoyao and the ex-soldiers standing behind him in just their boxer shorts, and said with a smile, "Boss, what's going on here? How did a fight break out? We all go out for a good time, and enjoying ourselves is the most important thing, don't you think?"

Li Xiaoyao glanced at the manager and said, "It's none of your business, stand aside."

Huaqing Pool rarely had such incidents because it was backed by a big boss and was the only venue in San Tiao Alley that didn't have to pay protection money to the gangsters there.

No thug dared to cause trouble at Huaqing Pool; the power behind it was too formidable.

Seeing that Li Xiaoyao was not taking his advice, the manager smiled and seemingly in goodwill reminded him, "Boss, this is Huaqing Pool. If you have any problems, you can settle them outside, but it's better not to resort to violence inside Huaqing Pool."

"Oh? And what if I do resort to violence here?" Li Xiaoyao asked the lobby manager with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

The lobby manager chuckled and replied, "Since Huaqing Pool opened, no one who has caused trouble here has left unscathed."

"Fine, I'll give you this face," Li Xiaoyao conceded. He wasn't clear about the big shot behind Huaqing Pool, so he decided not to act recklessly.

Li Xiaoyao walked over to Wang Xiaomao, squatted down, patted his face, and said, "Kid, remember, my name is Li Xiaoyao. I'll give you one hour to pull in all the pull you have. In one hour, my brothers and I will be looking for you after we're done bathing."

After dropping those words, Li Xiaoyao waved his hand and said, "You have one hour to sort things out, is that enough time?"

"Enough!" the ex-soldiers shouted unanimously.

But one of them scratched his head and said, "Brother Li, I've got two going on, one hour isn't quite enough."

Li Xiaoyao laughed and scolded, "You fuckin' stud, if it's not enough, just hold it in for now and continue later tonight."

The ex-soldier chuckled and replied, "Okay."

After that, the ex-soldiers returned to their rooms, and Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ge found a place to rest. With this calm and collected demeanor, they clearly didn't take the group of hoodlums seriously.

Wang Xiaomao felt a surge of impatience and got up to lead his men to hack at Li Xiaoyao, but the hall manager coughed and said, "This is Huaqing Pool, you'd better think carefully before making a move."

Wang Xiaomao was startled and then remembered that this place was Huaqing Pool.

Those who were part of the underworld knew what Huaqing Pool was, a place rumored to be backed by a powerful and influential big boss, not someone ordinary people could compare with.

Wang Xiaomao was just a petty gangster who had heard that Hu Zhi, the big shot of San Tiao Alley, had been killed, and the other two bosses had been invited to the police station for tea. He saw this as an opportunity to enter San Tiao Alley and see if he could carve out a piece for himself.

As for Huaqing Pool, he wouldn't dare to cause any trouble, so upon hearing the hall manager's words, he immediately led his men out, tails between their legs.

After leaving Huaqing Pool, Wang Xiaomao began to make phone calls. Although just a petty gangster, he had a wide network on the streets. A phone call from him would gather at least a dozen or twenty people.

In an hour's time, Wang Xiaomao had gathered about a hundred people, and together with his own dozen men, there were more than a hundred and seventy in total.

Meanwhile, Li Xiaoyao was lying in bed, resting with his eyes half-closed, completely unaware of the commotion outside.

San Tiao Alley hadn't seen a gang fight in a long time, so when Wang Xiaomao rallied more than a hundred and seventy people outside of Huaqing Pool, it gave the nearby shop owners quite a scare.

Was this going to blow up into something big?

Those who didn't know the specifics thought that with the three big bosses of San Tiao Alley either dead or invited for tea by the police, suddenly a lot of hoodlums appeared, hoping to get a share of the pie during this turmoil.

The hall manager of Huaqing Pool just smiled at the scene outside and didn't go to warn Li Xiaoyao or drive the crowd away.

It had been so many years since San Tiao Alley had been this alive; it was about time it livened up.

Moreover, the hall manager was quite curious. Li Xiaoyao gave him a strange feeling, and he wanted to see if this young man really had any skills or was just all talk.

Li Xiaoyao woke up and stretched, saying, "Let's go."

After changing clothes, the two came downstairs to the lobby, then asked the waitress to summon the group of veterans.

These studs, true to their military background, had gone at it for over an hour non-stop, and Li Xiaoyao worried they might actually kill those girls.

Zhao Ge glanced outside the door and froze at the sight.

Outside, there was a dense crowd of people, at least a hundred strong. Each person was armed with knives or clubs, their gazes fierce as they stared down at the interior of Huaqing Pool.

"Xiaoyao, look outside," Zhao Ge said with a grave expression.

Li Xiaoyao lifted his head to glance outside and was momentarily taken aback, but his expression wasn't as serious as Zhao Ge's.

"Wow, this kid's got quite the pull, actually managed to round up a bunch of people," Li Xiaoyao said nonchalantly.

Zhao Ge's face turned grim, "This hurdle won't be easy to cross. They have at least a hundred and fifty people, while we are only thirteen. We'll probably take a fall here tonight."

Li Xiaoyao chuckled, "No worries. It doesn't matter if they are a hundred or even if their number doubles, there's nothing to be afraid of."

As the two were talking, the veterans began coming down one after another, each with a face of satisfaction, still carrying their lecherous demeanor. Discover stories at empire
