“Brat, are you sick of living?” The moment the man called Big-Ear was caught by Christopher, he sneered. Just when he was about to disdainfully retract his hand from Christopher’s grip, he felt that his right hand was held down by pliers. At that instant, Big-Ear’s expression was transformed into shock. He was a man of strength and even his older brother was no match for him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to make the middle-aged man’s thigh bleed with just a stone. Seeing that he couldn’t retract his hand, Big-Ear gritted his teeth as a glint of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. After he narrowed his eyes, he rapidly extended his right leg, which left an afterimage in the air as it reached for Christopher’s thigh. He was confident that if his kick had successfully landed on Christopher, even if Christopher didn’t suffer a fracture, he would be in so much pain that it was impossible for him to walk. With this thought in mind, Big-Ear grinned. “Brat, you’ve basically chosen the path to hell yourself. I’ve never once failed in my attempt to rob anyone. You only have yourself to blame!”Whoosh! The angle from which Big-Ear was extending his leg was highly tricky as it reached for the most vulnerable part of Christopher’s thigh. At that instant, Christopher narrowed his eyes and moved his leg as well. Whoosh! The speed at which Christopher extended his leg seemed to be twice the speed of Big-Ear. Like a snake that was sticking out its tongue, just when Big-Ear’s leg was about to reach Christopher’s thigh, his foot circumvented Big-Ear’s leg and landed on the latter’s heel. “Ahhhh!” Big-Ear’s eyes widened in disbelief. Before he could even figure out how Christopher’s foot could have reached his heel, Big-Ear fell forward and shrieked. As he did so, he groaned in pain. The moment he came into contact with the ground, the sand rose in the air and immediately dirtied his clean-looking face. After his face was covered with sand, he looked vastly different from his earlier self. “Damn it!” He spat a mouthful of saliva and turned over. Just when he was about to curse at Christopher, one foot suddenly stomped on his chest, causing one of his ribs to break.Crack! At the same time, Christopher’s dispassionate voice could be heard, “Try cursing at me again.” The corner of Big-Ear’s mouth twitched when he heard those words as he had never dealt with such a difficult person before. He was practically unrivaled in Southwest District and no one had the guts to offend him. Normally, he could contend against five people on his own. However, at this moment, he felt that the brat before his eyes was able to battle against the five of them with ease. He even felt that before he could even use half of his power, he would be defeated by this man. He had been a thug for a long time, but it was the first time that he quickly and completely lost. The other thugs who were around Big-Ear became flustered and fearful upon seeing their leader being defeated with just one move from his opponent. They knew fully well of Big-Ear’s abilities, so they didn’t expect that he would end up in such an embarrassing state. Christopher nonchalantly clapped his hand and shot an impassive glance at him. “Do you know why I decided to teach you a lesson earlier?” Upon hearing that, Big-Ear snorted. He’s probably going to say that he’s a valiant man and he couldn’t tolerate what I was doing, which was why he wanted to stop me. I’ve heard numerous people say that to me before. Crack! When he heard Big-Ear’s snort, Christopher frowned and decidedly pressed his foot against the latter’s chest even harder, causing one of his ribs to break again. You’re already unable to move with my foot on your chest, but you still dare to snort at me. This isn’t something I can tolerate. If you dare to be arrogant again, I’ll stomp my foot on you until you keep your mouth shut. “Ahhhh!” One of his ribs was broken again, so a sense of horror finally appeared on Big-Ear’s face at this moment. This brat is so ruthless! Obviously, he’s not a valiant man at all. The reason why he stopped me was probably not because he wanted to save that middle-aged man! He was worried that if he dared to snort again, more of his ribs would be cracked. This brat is too cold-blooded! It’s like he’s also a thug. After hearing the sound of his opponent’s rib cracking, Christopher still remained unperturbed as he shot a cold glance at him. “That’s because we’re now in front of The Serenade and I’m the cook here. If you rob people here, you’ll affect my business!” He would never go easy on anyone who dared to stop him from earning Thumbs-Up points.The corner of Big-Ear’s mouth twitched again. So, the reason why he’s broken my ribs is that I’ve affected his business! This man is so brutal! I’m nowhere near as ruthless as he is! He already had his eye on this place for quite some time, but it seemed that he had to surrender now. If he sees me here again, he’ll probably break my limbs, not just my ribs. He did not have any doubt that Christopher had the guts to do such things. When the flurried middle-aged man heard what Christopher had said, a sense of surprise appeared on his face. This guy is The Serenade’s cook. That’s wonderful! It seems that I don’t have to line up! The reason why he was here was to buy the legendary Hundred Tonics Nourishing Soup. However, he didn’t have enough money. Just when he was trying to think of a way to enter the place, this young man came into his sight. In Morton Goodman’s eyes, this young man who had appeared and helped him to chase away these thugs was like a godsend to him. He reckoned that he’d just threaten Christopher a bit later and force Christoper to help him enter the restaurant. While Morton appeared to be ecstatic, Big-Ear felt an increased force on his chest. As his expression drastically changed, he hurriedly apologized, “Hey, man, I’m so sorry! Please forgive me! I’ll never rob anyone here again!”He quickly waved his hands and pleaded with Christopher. The flustered expression on Big-Ear’s face was extremely vivid, as though he was worried that the young man before his eyes would be displeased and break more of his ribs. If that happened, even if he managed to get 10,000, he would lose more than he could gain. “F*ck off now.” As Christopher listened to his plea, he retracted his foot from the latter’s chest. He wasn’t willing to waste any more time on him, as his intention was to stop these people from coming here to make a scene again. Upon hearing that, those thugs appeared as if they had been spared a severe punishment, so they hurriedly turned around to leave the place. Ding! “Congratulations, Host. You’ve valiantly chased the thugs away, so you’ll gain 1,000 Thumbs-Up points!” The mechanical voice spoke to Christopher in his mind again. Just as he was about to leave, Morton could be heard saying in a haughty manner, “Hey, Mr. Cook, could you bring me into The Serenade?”
