Chapter 58: Setting Up a Trap

The situation in the internet cafe was now clear. The guys in the cafe were quite familiar with the muscular man. They hadn't acted earlier, but now that the muscular man had ordered them to, they wouldn't hesitate. Within ten minutes, more than twenty people from the streets had flooded into the cafe, ranging from young seventeen or eighteen-year-olds to older ones around thirty.

The gamers in the cafe had already left. The person at the counter, presumably the owner, watched the chaos with interest. Jiang Fan and Chen Yi were cornered, shielding Qian Wan behind them. The opponents didn't rush in due to the sharp end of the umbrella handle Chen Yi held.

However, it wasn't long before someone came in with several machetes and steel rods. Jiang Fan took a deep breath when he saw this.

"Fan, prepare to take Qian Wan away. I'll hold them off."

Chen Yi spoke softly. Jiang Fan unbuttoned his shirt, took off his blazer, and said quietly,

"What are we running for? If they use knives, we fight to the death. Qian Wan, find a chance to run out, drive back to the company."

"Huh? Run? You won't get away. Today, if I don't take some nude photos of this bitch, I don't deserve to be here."

The muscular man sneered, his eyes fixed on Qian Wan's legs with a lewd gaze. This frightened Qian Wan, and she hid behind Jiang Fan again. Seeing the approaching crowd, Jiang Fan also felt a bit anxious. Chen Yi stepped forward with the sharp umbrella handle. The opponents seemed somewhat intimidated and stopped, but the muscular man wasn't afraid. He grabbed a steel rod from someone nearby and walked towards Chen Yi with a fierce expression.

At this moment, Chen Yi was despairing. He had planned well, but he didn't expect things to escalate like this.

The muscular man swung the steel rod and hit Chen Yi's hand. The umbrella handle fell to the ground in pain. Jiang Fan stepped forward to pick it up, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. The steel rod had hit him. Qian Wan took out her phone to call the police, but the person who had hugged her before slapped her phone out of her hand. It fell to the ground and was crushed under a foot.

Jiang Fan and Chen Yi were forced back into the corner again. Jiang Fan got angry and roared,

"Guan Dagou, if you don't come soon, I'm going to die."

Guan Dagou? These three words obviously scared the people in the cafe. After waiting for more than ten seconds without any movement, they burst into laughter. The muscular man sneered,

"Guan Dagou, even if you bring your big dog, it can't save you."

"Hmm? Who's talking about bringing a big dog? Bring it out and let me, Guan Junbiao, take it for a walk. Let's see how fast it runs."

A very light voice came from the door of the cafe. The flamboyant Guan Dagou in a red blazer finally arrived. Jiang Fan relaxed and sighed in this instant. The muscular man was stunned, then turned around, put down the steel rod, and rubbed his hands together, flattering Guan Junbiao,

"Brother Guan, you're here. It's been a while since you visited my place. There are some new girls there, quite beautiful."

Guan Junbiao didn't even look at him. He walked forward, put his hands on the computer desk next to Jiang Fan, and smiled,

"Brother Jiang, don't blame me for coming late. I was taking a bath when you called. I came here without even wearing underwear."

Jiang Fan raised his head and scolded,

"Don't bullshit with me. Just protect Qian Wan and get her back to the company. It's fine if we get beaten up, but this young lady can't be harmed."

Upon hearing this, Guan Dagou immediately understood the message conveyed in Jiang Fan's words. He raised his hand and whistled. Instantly, more than twenty men wearing black suits, sunglasses, and white gloves rushed into the cafe, carrying baseball bats. They looked very professional.

The people who had been arrogant in the cafe were now scared.

Guan Dagou grinned at Qian Wan and said,

"Qian Wan, just tell me how you want to deal with them. It's my first time meeting you. I'm Guan Junbiao. I can say a few words here. Brother Jiang, or should you say it?"

"You're more professional than me. It doesn't matter if I, a man, get beaten up, but this young girl got slapped."

"Understood! Drag them out and break one of their arms."

Guan Dagou was still laughing, and he didn't specify who he was referring to—it was everyone in the place except Jiang Fan and his two companions. The owner of the internet cafe started to feel a little panicked. He had just arrived and was about to offer a cigarette when Guan Dagou kicked him far away.

Seeing that he was going to be beaten anyway, the muscular man grabbed a watermelon knife and slashed towards Jiang Fan. Guan Dagou was furious when he saw this. He grabbed a chair with one hand and threw it directly at the man's head. With agile movements, he leaped over the table, jumped high, and kicked the man in the face. He then rose from the ground, grabbed the man's arm, and stomped on it.

"Break both of his arms and teach him a lesson about his eyes and ears."

Even Jiang Fan felt the pain watching this scene. No wonder everyone was afraid of Guan Dagou; this guy was really ruthless.

In just a few minutes, only Jiang Fan, his two companions, Guan Dagou, and the owner of the internet cafe remained inside. Guan Dagou took out cigarettes and offered them to Jiang Fan and Chen Yi, personally lighting them for them. He grinned with a cigarette in his mouth and said,

"Jiang, give me a call next time you encounter something good."

Jiang Fan smoked and sucked in a breath of cold air, saying angrily,

"If you had come a little later, I would have been beaten to death. I even suspect you timed your arrival."

"Jiang, you're not at work but playing in an internet cafe? Su [the general manager] is really good to you."

"Can we not mention it? Let's talk outside."

As they exited the internet cafe and couldn't see anyone outside, Jiang Fan was slightly puzzled. Guan Dagou explained,

"They went to a secluded place to take action. That fat guy is a pimp who has a group of underlings. We can't kill him, but he gives me quite a sum of money every year. Don't blame me, Jiang. I'm also living hand to mouth."

Jiang Fan sneered in disdain and told Chen Yi and Qian Wan to get in the car and wait for him.

The two of them obediently got into the car, and then Jiang Fan walked to the other side with Guan Dagou, standing under the eaves to avoid the rain. Guan Dagou put away his playful and unruly demeanor and said seriously with his head down,

"Jiang, that little girl has a special identity?"

Jiang Fan nodded seriously and said,

"Of course. Otherwise, I would have called the police directly. She's the niece of an Honor shareholder, and her aunt seems to dote on her a lot. Her aunt will definitely know about what happened today. If she knows that your man, Tu Xiao, saved her niece, wouldn't that be a good thing?"

The cigarette in Guan Dagou's mouth fell to the ground, and he opened his arms to give Jiang Fan a hug. Jiang Fan quickly stretched out his hand to refuse.

"Don't hug me. My whole body hurts now. If her aunt has a good impression of or is grateful to Tu Xiao, then half of Tu Xiao's transformation is successful. Besides, I'm working on Su Qing. Tu Xiao's transformation is inevitable, but this is your first time doing real estate. Don't cut corners. Tell me, do I owe you a debt of gratitude, or do you owe me one?"

"Don't say a debt of gratitude. Jiang, I owe you a hundred of them if you want. But don't lie to me. Is she really the shareholder's niece?"

"Are you stupid? That young man is Chen Yi, my good brother at the company. Besides him and me, who else dares to come to an internet cafe to play games during work hours? Go back and tell Tu Xiao about this. Ask him to call Su Qing a week later. I'll give you her phone number. Unless there's an accident, I'll go to your company to talk to Tu Xiao. Guan, you're the only one busy with this matter. What do you think?"

"But what if her aunt doesn't know what happened?"

"Are you blind? Can't you see her face is swollen? There must be someone close to her aunt in the company who will definitely know. Moreover, unless there's an accident, she was going to come to the internet cafe to play games. The main responsibility is on her. Are you better than me at fighting or scheming?"

"I can put people in sacks and beat them up, hahaha! Jiang, I really admire you. I must have a good drink with you if I have the chance. I need to remember this license plate number."

"The car is Tang Wan's. What are you remembering? I'm not talking to you anymore. Remember to take a photo of those people's broken arms and send it to my email. I'll tell Tu Kun about the email. I'm leaving."

Jiang Fan turned and jogged away from the eaves, opened the car door, and Qian Wan drove the car away into the rain. Guan Dagou stood in place, thinking for a moment, then grinned and walked into the internet cafe. He picked up an iron rod from the ground and smiled at the owner of the cafe.

"Your equipment needs to be updated. I know you can't bear to part with it, but I'll help you."
