Chapter 1299: Just Friends
The man in the lead saw Chen Yang, was initially stunned, and then burst out angrily, "Get lost, you little brat. If you dare meddle again, believe it or not, I'll take your life!"
The three men thought Chen Yang was a meddlesome bystander, so they tried to intimidate him into leaving.
"If you don't leave, I'll take your lives!" Chen Yang not only didn't leave but strode towards them.
The three men were enraged by this scene.
"Wow, in this day and age, some people really aren't afraid of death. Let's grant your wish!" The leader pulled out a switchblade and also rushed towards Chen Yang.
The other two weren't scared either, picking up stones from the ground and aggressively advancing towards Chen Yang.
These three were down-and-out, but they certainly had the guts. To commit such a crime takes real nerve.
Anyone else might have been scared off by them.
But in front of Chen Yang, they were simply courting death.
As the two sides approached each other, in no time, Chen Yang faced off against the three of them.
The man in the lead was the most fierce, gritting his teeth as he thrust the knife towards Chen Yang's stomach.
Chen Yang, quick-eyed and deft, raised his leg and kicked the man's arm from the side.
Ah!
The man cried out in pain, and the switchblade fell to the ground.
Before they could react, Chen Yang delivered a right hook to the man's face.
Thud.
Chen Yang's punch packed quite a force.
He directly knocked out several of the man's teeth, sending him flying sideways.
The two men beside him, seeing their boss hit, were clearly startled, but they didn't hold back, still swinging bricks at Chen Yang.
The outcome for the two of them was no better than their boss's.
Taking care of these two wasn't a big deal for Chen Yang.
Both ended up losing several teeth, lying on the ground moaning and covering their faces.
After dealing with them, Chen Yang didn't spare them another glance and walked straight towards the still-frightened Wang Jingman, "Are you alright, Jingman?"
"I'm fine. Luckily you came in time, otherwise things might have gotten bad." Wang Jingman said with a touch of panic.
Wang Jingman could be considered brave. If an average woman encountered such a situation, she might have been scared to tears.
Wang Jingman was only flustered, which was pretty good.
"As long as you're okay." Chen Yang smiled and nodded, then turned his gaze towards the three men moaning on the ground.
"Such guts, committing this kind of act in the park, really vicious and brutal. Enjoy a couple of years in prison and maybe turn your lives around." For people like them, Chen Yang had nothing more to say as he reached for his phone to call the police.
Seeing Chen Yang about to call the police, the three men on the ground immediately panicked.
Taking advantage of Chen Yang's distraction, they scrambled to their feet and ran.
Chen Yang was actually keeping an eye on them, and seeing them try to flee, he immediately chased after them and gave them another beating.
He beat them black and blue, leaving them lying on the ground unmoving.
"Trying to run? Wishful thinking."
Chen Yang coldly chuckled and once again picked up his phone to call the police.
Ten minutes later, a police car arrived at the scene.
Chen Yang watched as the police car arrived and noticed two familiar figures step out.
One was Tan Jing, and the other was a burly officer, Tan Jing's brother.
Chen Yang had met them the first time he helped Tan Jing with a case, so he had an impression of them.
Seeing these two, Chen Yang was genuinely surprised. He hadn't expected to run into them here.
Once Tan Jing and her brother got out of the car, they didn't immediately notice Chen Yang, but after glancing around, they walked over to him.
Coming closer, Tan Jing was full of surprise when she saw Chen Yang!
"Chen Yang!" Tan Jing exclaimed and quickly ran over, asking with excitement, "Chen Yang, what are you doing here? Were you the one who called the police just now?"
Seeing Tan Jing, Chen Yang was equally delighted.
He smiled and nodded, "Yes, I was the one who called."
"What's going on?"
Tan Jing was still full of surprise as she inquired about what happened at the scene.
So, Chen Yang first introduced Wang Jingman to her, and after the introduction, he recounted the incident.
After listening to Chen Yang's account, Tan Jing's expression turned slightly awkward, as if she held some reservations about Wang Jingman.
"Oh, I see. Those guys really deserved a beating, daring to harass your girlfriend." Tan Jing said with a forced smile.
Hearing this, Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh and quickly explained, "Jingman isn't my girlfriend, just a friend."
"Just friends, huh? Taking a walk in the park late at night?" Tan Jing asked skeptically.
"Really just friends. We just finished a business discussion and came for a walk to digest. Don't overthink it." Chen Yang continued to explain.
"Haha, yes, Officer Tan, you misunderstood. Chen Yang and I are just friends." Wang Jingman chimed in at this moment.
Chen Yang's words might not have convinced Tan Jing, but with Wang Jingman also explaining, she had no reason not to believe.
"Alright then, I might have overthought it. I'll take these three back and we'll deal with them strictly." Tan Jing finally laughed.
"That would be best."
Chen Yang couldn't quite understand what Tan Jing was thinking, her attitude changing so much.
After explaining everything, Tan Jing didn't stay long, saying a few more words to Chen Yang before taking the three men away.
"Jingman, let's go too."
Watching Tan Jing leave, Chen Yang turned to Wang Jingman.
Wang Jingman smiled and nodded, agreeing as they left the park together.
The two first returned to the restaurant, got into a car, and headed to the hotel where Wang Jingman was staying.
At the hotel, the flush on Wang Jingman's face had entirely disappeared.
Only anticipation for the treatment remained.
"Chen Yang, besides the silver needle, is there anything else to prepare?" Wang Jingman asked upon entering the room.
"For now, no, we can start the medication treatment tomorrow without any rush." Chen Yang replied.
"Alright, let's begin then."
Wang Jingman eagerly suggested.
Saying this, Wang Jingman guided Chen Yang to the couch in the room.
Wang Jingman's room was a presidential suite, with a living room featuring a very soft large sofa.
Being in the medical field herself, she understood the need for a suitable place for acupuncture.
"Should I just lie down or what?" Wang Jingman asked impatiently.
"Uh..." When preparing for Wang Jingman's treatment earlier, Chen Yang wasn't embarrassed, but now, at this crucial step, he was feeling a bit awkward.
Because treating the Mysterious Yin Body toxin required full-body acupuncture.
This meant that Wang Jingman couldn't have anything on her body.
Having only known each other for a couple of days, asking for this now made Chen Yang quite reluctant to speak.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Chen Yang? Is there an issue?" Wang Jingman asked, noticing Chen Yang's awkwardness.
Chen Yang finally explained.
"There's no issue, I just forgot to explain the treatment process to you."
"Your condition is very special and requires full-body acupuncture."
Hearing this, the flush that had just faded from Wang Jingman's face suddenly returned.
It was even more intense than when she had been drinking earlier.
