Supremely Talented Tyrant

Under Molan's lead, Hao Jian and his friends arrived at an upper-middle-class restaurant, which could also be referred to as a tavern.

But after they arrived, they suddenly saw Lin Qingxue walking towards an eight-person table, which made Hao Jian pause slightly.

Because there was already someone sitting at that eight-person table, wearing only a vest with absurdly developed muscles, and seeing his fists, Hao Jian furrowed his brow slightly.

Just because this man's knuckles were full of calluses and numerous scars, it was obvious he had been in more than a few fights.

"Let me introduce you, this is a friend of mine, named Zhao Wei, and he's a skilled boxer!"

Lin Qingxue explained to Hao Jian and the others, suddenly looking a bit puzzled, asking Zhao Wei, "Weren't there three of you coming over? Why are you the only one here?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wei, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them, glancing at Lin Qingxue, which made Hao Jian's brow furrow slightly, as he sensed a familiar aura from this man.

This aura was similar to that of the men who had pursued Lin Qingxue before; it seemed like this Zhao Wei was interested in Lin Qingxue?

Thinking of this, a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Hao Jian's mouth. No wonder Lin Qingxue called Zhao Wei over right after the game and other events ended, and especially while he was present.

Shaking his head inwardly, Hao Jian felt somewhat helpless as well. Who could blame Lin Qingxue's beauty for being so enchanting? Most men stared when she walked by, even though Lin Qingxue had a boyfriend.

These self-assured people would not hold back just because Lin Qingxue had a boyfriend. They certainly wouldn't believe their own skills were inferior to others or that they could be weaker than others.

With that defiant heart in their mind, they would advance on Lin Qingxue, who had a boyfriend, just like the situation at Hua City University, where many people pursued her despite knowing she had a boyfriend.

And outside, such people were abundant. Perhaps this Zhao Wei was just one of the many pursuing Lin Qingxue, but what made Hao Jian feel a bit sympathetic was that this poor Zhao Wei still didn't know why Lin Qingxue called him out today.

With Hao Jian present, Lin Qingxue still felt the need to bring another man to this table, implying something unmistakable. Faced with Lin Qingxue's approach, Hao Jian had no reason to refuse since it was all convenient.

"The other two people?"

Zhao Wei sneered, shaking his head, "Just those two losers, and they wanted to come over here? I handled both of them on my own, and they still lost. Such defeated opponents aren't qualified to sit here!"

From Zhao Wei's words, it seemed the other two people Lin Qingxue mentioned were dealt with by him. In response, Hao Jian found it a bit amusing; how did this guy strike him as a simple-minded brute?

Solving everything with his strength and letting his fists do the talking. Didn't he realize those two were also invited by Lin Qingxue? Wasn't he disgracing Lin Qingxue by doing that?

No wonder Lin Qingxue would start by dealing with this guy...

Hao Jian's expression was a bit peculiar, and then he showed a hint of sympathy for the pitiful fellow who still didn't understand Lin Qingxue's attitude toward him, continually doing things that increasingly soured her impression of him.

From these words, Hao Jian also realized what this guy did. In simple terms, he fought in an underground boxing gym.

He was a contracted boxer for that gym and had recently won a championship in an underground boxing competition. This underground boxing competition was held by all the underground boxing gyms in Hua City.

Back then, he won the championship by defeating his opponent with sheer power.

In the entire Hua City, there were only two or three underground boxing gyms, and the forces behind those gyms were not to be underestimated. However, for Hao Jian, it wasn't a big deal since these underground boxing gyms were all managed by Spice Ginger, and the forces behind them wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

"You... very good!"

Lin Qingxue forcibly suppressed her anger, looking at Zhao Wei, gritting her teeth to swallow her fury, and then tried hard to put on a smiling face as she introduced Hao Jian and the others.

With each roommate Lin Qingxue introduced, Zhao Wei's expression became more displeased. However, when Lin Qingxue introduced Hao Jian as her boyfriend, Zhao Wei suddenly snorted coldly.

"Kid, are you Lin Qingxue's man?"

Before Lin Qingxue could finish speaking, Zhao Wei interrupted, making Lin Qingxue's face very unhappy. But seeing him provoke Hao Jian, she also showed a worried expression, as this guy was the boxing king of the underground gym, and she wasn't sure if Hao Jian's skills could handle it.

At this point, Lin Qingxue felt some regret. If she had known, she should have informed Hao Jian in advance about the ins and outs of this matter.

"Yeah, are you deaf? Didn't you hear what my Qingxue said?"

Hao Jian reached up to dig in his ear, looked at Zhao Wei, and sneered, "I have no idea how you met my Qingxue. With her personality and aesthetic taste, she would never interact with someone as simple-minded as you."

"Oh..."

Suddenly, Hao Jian seemed to have an epiphany, looked at Zhao Wei, and laughed, "I understand now. It must not be that my Qingxue knows you, but that you shamelessly pursued her. That explanation makes much more sense..."

"Kid! You..."

Hao Jian's ruthless belittling made Zhao Wei's face look increasingly unpleasant, yet he couldn't refute it. After all, just like Hao Jian said, he was indeed the one pursuing Lin Qingxue.

"What right do you have to talk about me?!"

Zhao Wei snorted coldly, sizing up Hao Jian with a sneer, "With that Skinny Monkey-like physique of yours, I could take on ten of you."

"Enough!"

Seeing Zhao Wei come at them head-on, Lin Qingxue's expression wasn't much better. She shouted angrily at Zhao Wei, then pointed at Hao Jian, "Hao Jian is my man! What he's like, you don't have the right to say. Moreover, with Hao Jian's strength, it doesn't take much to handle someone like you!"

"He could take on ten people like you, as easily as you said."

"Cough cough... that's a bit much..."

Hearing Lin Qingxue praise him as the best in the world, Hao Jian's face turned slightly red. He gave a dry cough, trying to stop Lin Qingxue, but she just gave him a fierce glare.

Lin Qingxue had asked Hao Jian to come and help her resolve the issue, but this guy just jumped into a confrontation without even ordering food, and she was still hungry!

"Lin Qingxue, watch your words!"

Lin Qingxue's defense of Hao Jian made Zhao Wei even more displeased and humiliated. This was a public place, after all, and it was meal time with plenty of diners around.

Lin Qingxue's words turned many eyes toward him, making him both ashamed and angry, as if he had been utterly disrespected!

But neither Hao Jian nor Lin Qingxue cared about this issue of face, as the one losing face wasn't them but the muscle-brained guy in front of them.

Under so many watchful eyes, Zhao Wei didn't dare to lose his temper. After all, he was now somewhat of a public figure in the underground world. Any mishap might affect his reputation.

And his reputation now related to money. If his reputation fell, his income would decrease, and those eyeing his position would immediately rush in to snatch the coveted things from his hands.

Namely, the title of Boxing King!

"Kid, what kind of hero hides behind a woman?!"

Zhao Wei shouted angrily at Hao Jian, "If you still consider yourself a man, then come outside now. Let's have a fair match. If you win, then whatever you say goes!"

"I want to see if a Skinny Monkey like you can protect Lin Qingxue! Someone like her isn't someone you can guard!"

"She needs a man like me, who is capable, strong, and gives a sense of security!"

In the end, Zhao Wei couldn't help but put a giant hat on himself, presenting himself as the ideal man.

Meanwhile, he painted Hao Jian as utterly worthless.

Hearing this, not only Hao Jian but also Lin Qingxue and the others picked up on it. Lin Qingxue's charming face looked odd, while Molan and the others felt slightly sickened. How could this guy dare to say anything?

Nevertheless, Hao Jian didn't care about this guy's proposal. He just waved it off casually, "I'm not interested in any competition with you right now. Meal times should be spent solving hunger issues, not wasting words with you and having some boring contest..."

In response, Zhao Wei didn't get angry but laughed, looking at Hao Jian triumphantly, "You sure know how to talk, but I see you're chickening out, being a coward, right?!"

"You're a coward, a wimp hiding behind a woman! You don't even dare to fight me fairly, yet you want to win over Lin Qingxue?!"

"Kid, stop dreaming! I believe Lin Qingxue will soon leave your side once she realizes your shortcomings!"
