It took a while for the passengers on the plane to recover from their daze. Looking at the five people tied up crying regretfully. Their expression dazed as though they were still in a dream.

"You… You're amazing!" The stewardess exclaimed with her mouth forming an O shape, feeling as though she had just ascended to heaven from hell.

Ye Lingchen rubbed his nose. "Thank you."

The stewardess winked at Ye Lingchen, then passed him a strip of paper before leaving hastily.

"Ex… Excuse me. I have misjudged you." The woman from before apologized, embarrassed by her actions.

She too passed a strip of paper to Ye Lingchen before leaving. She had even rubbed her fingers on his palm in the process.

'Hot damn! What was that all about?'

After that, Ye Lingchen's seat was surrounded—mostly by women. They were flirting with him as they thanked him.

By the time he disembarked, he had received over twenty little strips of paper.

Unfolding them one by one, they were all phone numbers. Some of the more confident ones even had their body measurements listed.

'Too bad I'm not such a person…'

Ye Lingchen let out a sigh, then painfully ripped the strips of papers and threw them into the trash can.

As for the five criminals, they cooperated fully with the police, confessing to all their wrongdoings. They even profusely thanked Ye Lingchen throughout the process.

Due to the sensitivity of such incidents, it was not disclosed to the public, hence it was not shown in the news.

Ye Lingchen waste a minute, he immediately rushed off to Rugao City from Jianhai City.

Forty minutes later, Ye Lingchen got off the car and ran straight toward Zhang Yunxi's home.

At the same time, at Zhang Yunxi's home.

Three thugs were blocking the doors. Their expressions were ruthless.

"Old man, where's the money?"

"Can you give us a few more days? I really don't have any money," Zhang Yunxi's father explained.

Smack!

One of the thugs raised his hand and slapped Zhang Yunxi's father, sending him tumbling to the ground.

"You decrepit old man. It's only natural to pay back your debt. Under the skies, nobody dares to owe me, Li Si, money!"

Li Si stared coldly at Zhang Yunxi's father, then shifted his gaze. "Since you've no money, you can just settle the debt with your wife and daughter instead!"

He looked at Zhang Yunxi and her mother with a perverted look on his face.

Zhang Yunxi's beauty was undeniable. Her mother's appearance was also very pleasing with an extra touch of maturity. If they captured them, these thugs would be having some fun.

"No! Please give us a few more days." Zhang Yunxi's father hung onto Li Si's leg, begging him.

"Scram! You want me to kill you?" Li Si sent Zhang Yunxi's father off with a kick.

Zhang Yunxi's mother held Zhang Yunxi in her arms, both of them crying in a corner of the room.

"Bring those two beauties along!" Li Si commanded with a smile.

"Hold it!" Zhang Yunxi bit her lips and stood up. "I have the money!"

"You have the money?" Everyone's attention turned to her.

"I have the money!" Zhang Yunxi took a deep breath, then opened her banking app. "See, RMB500,000!"

"Yunxi, where did you get that money from?" Zhang Yunxi's mother asked in surprise.

"It belonged to Ye Lingchen. It's money that he earned himself in Capital City."

Zhang Yunxi's mother gasped, "He's that rich!?"

Meanwhile, the three debt collectors' expressions darkened…

"Then transfer the money now!"

Li Si stared at Zhang Yunxi and sneered.

RMB500,000 was transferred to Li Si's account.

"Now leave my house!" Zhang Yunxi commanded.

"Heheh, leave?" Li Si's gaze looked as though he was toying with his prey, "There's still an RMB100,000 balance! We can settle that by taking you with us."

"I've already paid off the RMB500,000 debt. If you continue acting like this, I will call the cops!" Zhang Yunxi said through gritted teeth as her face darkened.

Li Si replied in an icy tone, "That's right. Yesterday it was RMB500,000. Today, however, it has already reached RMB600,000! You have to clear this debt today no matter what!"

"Bring that girl away. Tonight I'll show her what I'm capable of!"

Behind Li Si, the other two thugs came forward slowly to grab Zhang Yunxi.

A combination of anger, discontent, despair, and humiliation flashed across Zhang Yunxi's gaze. Her eyes were watery and her face pale. At that moment, the thought of that young man came to mind.

If only he was here.

At that very moment, a loud shout burst forth.

"Stop it right there! Let that girl go!"

Ye Lingchen felt that these words had become his slogan. With the same words, he had saved countless young women from the maw of doom.

'Logically, I should be receiving the title of 'lady's best friend' by now.'

"Lingchen…" Zhang Yunxi muttered in a low voice, pleasantly surprised.

Ye Lingchen strode towards them, his face dark and gaze cold.

"Yo, kid. You're trying to be a knight in shining armor to save your damsel in distress?" Li Si threw an annoyed glance at Ye Lingchen. "This is none of your business. Butt in and I'll make sure you don't see the light of the next day!"

"Ye Lingchen ignored his threats and continued walking over to Zhang Yunxi's side.

He asked in a caring manner, "Are you hurt?"

Zhang Yunxi shook her head and looked at Ye Lingchen with her red puffy eyes. She then planted her face onto Ye Lingchen's chest, crying, "Waaaa, I'm so scared…"

"Relax. I'm here now. It'll be fine." Ye Lingchen consoled her while wiping her tears. "If you continue crying you're going to look ugly."

"Pfft!"

Zhang Yunxi instantly started laughing. "You're the ugly one!"

The others were stunned, especially Li Si. He was trembling in rage. He almost shot fire out of his eyes.

Ignored! He was totally ignored!

He roared, "Look over here, I'm pissed now!"

However, Ye Lingchen was seemingly deaf to his words. Ye Lingchen looked at Zhang Yunxi and said, "You've lost weight. I'm sure you haven't eaten. Go eat your food."

"F*CK!" The blood vessels on Li Si's forehead bulged. His eyes emitted a terrible glow. Taking a step forward, he stood in front of Ye Lingchen, blocking the way. In a condescending tone, "Kid, you're rather insolent!"

Ye Lingchen scowled, "I'll give you three seconds to disappear from my sight."

"F*cking hell! You've let your act go to your head! Acting tough in front of me would only end with you crying!"

Li Si raised his hand and sent a slap flying toward Ye Lingchen!

Ye Lingchen's eyes flashed. Raising his hand, he easily caught Li Si by the wrist and twisted it!

"Hiss! Ouch, ouch, ouch…"

Li Si's lips quivered, unable to speak clearly. "Hero, good sir, forgive me, I was wrong…"

In such a short time, his face turned scarlet from the pain. He dared not move an inch.

"Kneel!"

Li Si could only obey as he gasped continually in pain. "I beg of you, please let go."

"Scram!"

Just as Ye Lingchen released him, Li Si roared ruthlessly, "F*ck, kill him!"

The other two attacked Ye Lingchen simultaneously.

Ye Lingchen continued holding Zhang Yunxi in his arms. Without even looking, he raised one leg.

Bang, bang!

With two crisp sounds, the two thugs flew outward like a ball.

"Scram!" Ye Linghen gave Li Si an icy glare.

"I'll scram. I'll scram right away…"

Li Si was a nervous wreck. Too scared to say anything else, he lay flat on the ground like a defeated dog and crawled out hastily.
