Two burly bodyguards stepped in front of Qin Yu, their eyes fierce as they stared at him.
"I'm not interested in your watch, and you have no right to search me,"
Qin Yu replied calmly, unafraid.
Gao Yuanxiang sneered, "Are you feeling guilty because you're a thief?"
Feng Jie, seeing this, added fuel to the fire, "I know this guy; he drives for a ride-hailing service."
"He often kept for himself the items passengers left behind in his car."
"This time he sneaked in here, probably planning to steal something valuable."
"He's definitely feeling guilty about being a thief."
"That watch might even be on him right now."
"With his despicable kind, there's no need to be polite, just search him,"
the onlookers murmured among themselves, unable to help but chime in.
The looks they gave Qin Yu were filled with contempt.
After all, in their eyes, it was normal for the poor to covet wealth.
Feng Jie's face was full of mockery as he intentionally sighed, "Qin Yu, it's not that I want to say this about you,"
"but you've got some nerve to steal Young Master Gao's watch. You really have a death wish."
"Now, hand it over to Young Master Gao, get on your knees, and beg him to spare you this time."
Feng Jie, Gao Yuanxiang, and their entourage all wore looks of certainty.
Qin Yu was dubious, sensing that the situation was not just a simple search to humiliate him.
"Giving you face, it seems you don't want it, huh?"
Seeing Qin Yu unmoved, Gao Yuanxiang's lips curled slightly, and he then said to the bodyguards, "Then let's use some force."
The two bodyguards immediately moved to press down on Qin Yu's shoulders, bellowing, "Get down."
Qin Yu naturally remembered these two men; they were the very same who had pointed guns at his head outside his house a few days prior.
Having awakened the legacy of the Medical Saint, Qin Yu wouldn't let them humiliate him in public like this.
Despite the combined pressure of the two strong men, his body remained completely still.
The next moment, Qin Yu suddenly grabbed the left strong man's arm, and with a knife-hand strike, chopped down on his elbow.
"Ah......"
The strong man's arm grotesquely bent at a wrong angle, letting out a pig-like scream of agony.
Instantly, Qin Yu twisted to free himself from the other bodyguard and landed a punch squarely on his face.
The blow caused the strong man's nose to crumble, his forehead to deform, as he fell backward to the ground.
Seeing this, over a dozen other bodyguards rushed over.
Qin Yu centered himself and got ready to fight.
"Clack."
However, a faint sound suddenly rang out.
A wristwatch slipped from Qin Yu's body onto the ground.
In an instant, everyone's eyes widened, staring at Qin Yu with disdain.
Now they had caught him red-handed.
Let's see how you'll talk your way out of this one.
Qin Yu's brow furrowed, his expression one of shock.
He didn't even know when the watch had ended up on him.
Realizing something, he abruptly looked towards the sexy lady who had earlier asked him to carry the platter.
But at that moment, there was no trace of the sexy lady to be found.
This time, he was truly at a loss for words.
Gao Yuanxiang shook his head from side to side, saying, "What do you have to say now?"
Qin Yu glared coldly at Gao Yuanxiang, "Are you conspiring to frame me?"
Gao Yuanxiang mocked with a sneering laugh, "Thieves caught red-handed always say the same thing."
Without waiting for Qin Yu's response, Gao Yuanxiang's expression suddenly turned grim, "The things belonging to Gao Yuanxiang are mine to give or not."
"If I choose not to give them, and you dare to steal, I will chop off your hands."
As he spoke, more than a dozen tall and strong bodyguards had Qin Yu surrounded in the middle, ready to strike.
"Bring a knife, today I will personally chop off those dirty hands of his."
Gao Yuanxiang laughed viciously, while a lackey was already hastily running off to fetch a knife.
The Li Family scion who had just led Qin Yu was originally sent by Master Li to invite Qin Yu to dine. However, he did not expect to witness this scene, and his face turned pale with fright.
Others might not be clear about Qin Yu's identity, but this direct descendant was fully aware.
This was the man who had saved the old man's life.
Anxious and flustered, he ran to Master Li's villa.
Those dining here were all senior members of the Li Family, as well as some of the top figures in Nanzhou City.
"Grandfather, something terrible has happened, Gao Yuanxiang is in conflict with Mr. Qin and is about to chop off Mr. Qin's hands,"
the young man shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Master Li, Li Ruiliang, and a host of Li Family seniors were furious.
Gao Jingxuan, the Family Head of the Gao Family, turned pale.
He was Gao Yuanxiang's father.
The Gao Family was one of the top ten families in Nanzhou City.
But the Li Family was an extraordinary existence that stood above those top ten families.
In Nanzhou City, their power was overwhelming.
The current status of the Gao Family was entirely dependent on the Li Family.
Li Ruiliang turned his head to look at the pale Gao Jingxuan and said sternly, "Your eldest son from the Gao Family is getting more and more capable, acting so arrogantly and presumptuously in my Li Family's home."
After speaking, a large group of people rushed eagerly towards the swimming pool.
Even Master Li himself set out, walking briskly toward that direction, under the terrified gaze of several direct descendants.
Gao Jingxuan ran along while trying to phone Gao Yuanxiang, but the calls went unanswered.
Enraged, he smashed his phone, feeling a sense of despair.
He could only pray that Gao Yuanxiang hadn't been too lawless, that he really hadn't chopped off someone's hands at the Li Family's home.
Dozens of people rushed to the swimming pool area in a hurry.
The people around the pool were astounded to see so many direct descendants of the Li Family, and especially with Li Family Head Li Ruiliang at the forefront.
The swim pool passage, which had been tightly blocked by the spectating crowd, suddenly parted to both sides, creating a narrow path for the Li Family's direct descendants to pass through.
"The senior members of the Li Family direct lineage have come, what's going on?"
"My God, the Family Head of the Li Family has arrived, and that... that's... Master Li, he actually came in person."
"I've heard before that the Gao Family has close ties with the Li Family; it seems that the rumors are not unfounded."
"That thieving scoundrel is probably done for this time."
The onlooking crowd was filled with shock and envy.
Merely because a watch was stolen from the son of the Gao Family, it had disturbed all the senior members of the Li Family.
Even Master Li had come.
What an honor that was!!!!
When Li Ruiliang and the others arrived at the scene, they saw Qin Yu surrounded by more than a dozen people.
And Gao Yuanxiang was already holding a gleaming long knife.
Gao Jingxuan, the Family Head of the Gao Family, ran up gasping for air. Seeing that Gao Yuanxiang hadn't started yet, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
At least there was still room for maneuver.
Gao Jingxuan hurriedly shouted, "Yuanxiang, what are you doing? Put the knife down now."
Gao Yuanxiang was also extremely surprised to see this gathering of the Li family.
He couldn't understand why the Li family would assemble for this situation.
It surely couldn't be for himself.
But he absolutely didn't think these people had come for Qin Yu.
"What's going on?"
Master Li asked with a cold face looking at Gao Yuanxiang.
Gao Yuanxiang respectfully replied, "Master Li, this man stole my watch, and I was about to teach him a lesson."
Master Li said, "Mr. Qin is my guest, how could he steal your watch?"
"Whoosh..."
No sooner had he spoken than everyone was stunned as if struck by a bolt from the blue!
Feng Yu and Feng Jie also widened their eyes in disbelief.
Master Li's guest?
How could that be possible?
How could someone like him be worthy of being Master Li's guest?
