Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Mom!" Jiang Yutong cried out in desperation, trying to help her mother up, but Yellow Hair held her back tight.

"You bastards! Let me go!" Jiang Yutong struggled fiercely.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely let you go, but before that, you have to pay the protection fee with your body!" Yellow Hair leered with a sinister chuckle.

"Don't touch my daughter, I'm begging you," the mother pleaded with a choked voice, crawling over to grab Yellow Hair's leg to stop him from moving.

"Fuck, you old hag, you're asking for it! Let go, or I'm going to get rough!" Yellow Hair threatened harshly.

"Mom, don't worry about me, just go!" Jiang Yutong also cried out desperately.

"Let go of my daughter," the mother shouted weakly, still refusing to let go.

"Go to hell!" Yellow Hair's eyes suddenly flashed with brutality as he stomped toward the mother's head.

Whoosh!

Just then, a hand grabbed Yellow Hair's leg, and Hao Jian chuckled, "Brother, aren't you going a bit too far?"

Jiang Yutong and the others were all stunned, turning to look at Hao Jian.

The mother at their feet was also in a daze, seeing Hao Jian return, she exclaimed, "Teacher, why are you back?"

"I was actually planning to leave just now, but seeing these scoundrels heading back this way, I thought I'd come over and check things out," Hao Jian said with a smile, and indeed, it turned out just as he had suspected, these people were no good.

Hearing these words, Jiang Yutong immediately blushed with shame. She had insulted Hao Jian just now, yet he had come back to save them without holding a grudge.

"Kid, trying to play the hero, huh? Have you weighed whether your bones are hard enough?" Yellow Hair glared at Hao Jian, scoffing continuously.

"I wouldn't call it playing the hero. She's my student, I'm her teacher. Seeing her bullied by thugs, it's only right for me to step forward, isn't it?" Hao Jian shrugged his shoulders.

"A teacher, huh? Heh, beating up teachers is what I enjoy the most!" Yellow Hair laughed heartily.

"Kid, you're out of luck. Our Brother Yellow Hair hates teachers the most. You're really asking for it!" The other gangsters also started laughing.

"A fan of beating up teachers, huh? Then you must have been a bad student back when you were in school," Hao Jian said with narrowed eyes.

"Right, bullying male classmates, harassing female classmates, beating up teachers, collecting protection fees, I'm up to no good!" Yellow Hair boasted proudly as if it were something to be proud of.

"So that's how it is. Well, that's unfortunate, because as a teacher, the kind of student I hate the most is someone like you. Give you a chance: kneel down and kowtow a few times, then scram, and I'll pretend nothing happened and won't mess with your ridiculous hairstyle," Hao Jian said in all seriousness.

"Are you out of your mind, telling us to scram? Didn't you notice we've got more people here than you? You think you stand a chance against the lot of us?" Yellow Hair laughed in anger.@@novelbin@@

"Actually, it should be about five or six against one, to be correct," Hao Jian said with a smile.

"Five or six? Are you blind or can't you count?" Yellow Hair cursed, thinking the kid must be a simpleton.

But Hao Jian just laughed disparagingly, "It's you who overestimate your buddies here. As long as I take down one or two of the toughest among you, then handle another four or five hot-blooded youths, the rest will be so scared that they'll most likely run away. So you see, you only have five or six people who are of any use."

"Damn it, this kid's looking down on us, brothers, beat him up!" Yellow Hair was completely enraged and let out a roar.

"Teacher, run! These people are not ones you can afford to provoke, you've already done enough for our family, and we can't bear to see you getting beaten up for us anymore," the mother on the ground cried and wailed, not pleading with Yellow Hair and his gang, but begging Hao Jian.

Hao Jian had already gone to great lengths for them, mother and daughter, and for that, she was very grateful.

"Teacher Hao, I misunderstood you before, I'm sorry, but you really are no match for them, please just go, I'm begging you," Jiang Yutong also cried out to Hao Jian, her heart a mixture of emotions.

The person she used to despise the most was now firmly standing by her side. Regardless of whether Hao Jian had any ulterior motives towards her, his loyalty alone was touching; even if he did have malicious intentions, she was willing to accept it!

"Leave? As a teacher, to see my own student getting bullied and choose to run away, would I still be worthy of being called a teacher?" Hao Jian said with a faint smile, and then his eyes suddenly turned icy, "Moreover, they're just trash, is there really any need to worry?"

"Fuck! Kill that bastard!" Yellow Hair was burning with rage and pulled out a small knife from his pocket.

"Today I'm going to carve a hole in you and make you realize there are some people in this world you just can't mess with!" Yellow Hair charged forward first.

"Teacher, run!"

Jiang Yutong and her mother both cried out in horror at the same time.

But Hao Jian didn't run, nor did he hide, watching Yellow Hair, whose eyes were filled with murderous intent, as he drew closer and closer.

Yellow Hair was infuriated, and although he had not dared to actually stab Hao Jian, intending only to scare him, seeing that Hao Jian wasn't dodging but instead looking at him with a cold smirk, his anger exploded, and he thrust the knife directly towards Hao Jian's belly.

"Slap!"

A crisp slap echoed suddenly.

Everyone then saw Yellow Hair spinning on the spot before sitting down on the ground, unable to recover his senses for a long time.

"Brother Yellow Hair!"

The gangsters were instantly terrified.

Yellow Hair looked up at the sky dazedly, "Why are there so many stars tonight?"

Everyone was speechless.

"Dare to hit Brother Yellow Hair, brothers, chop this kid to death!" a tall guy roared and charged forward.

"Bang!"

Hao Jian simply extended a foot and kicked the tall guy directly into the bushes.

Following that, Hao Jian took care of a few more gangsters, and then, just as he had said, no one else dared to come forward.

The gangsters were stunned by how ferocious Hao Jian was, one by one bewildered.

They were just gangsters, not really deep into the underworld; their bones were full of hot air instead of true ferocity. How could they dare to challenge Hao Jian?

Even Jiang Yutong and her mother were taken aback by the sight. They had never imagined that Hao Jian, with his small frame, could fight these gangsters like they were his own children, knocking down five or six of them in no time, and doing so effortlessly, as if it was a walk in the park.

"Who the fuck else wants some?" Hao Jian swept his fierce gaze over the gangsters, and they simultaneously bowed their heads in fear, not daring to meet his eyes. Find exclusive stories on My Virtual Library Empire

"Get up there! Who do you think you follow?" Yellow Hair had regained his senses by now, hopping mad. These damn fools really turned into cowards.

"Brother Yellow Hair, I think we should let it go. That kid doesn't look easy to mess with," said one of the minions.

"Yeah, Brother Yellow Hair, a wise man does not fight when the odds are against him. Let's hurry and go. Tomorrow the boss can gather more men and then we can come back for revenge," another minion added.

Then the gangsters exchanged glances and ran away in unison.

"Come back here! Fuck your mothers, I'll kill you all later!" Yellow Hair cursed furiously.

"See, didn't I tell you?" Hao Jian walked over and crouched beside Yellow Hair, grinning wickedly.

Yellow Hair shook slightly, warning with a facade of toughness, "Don't mess with me. My boss is Fat Loach Brother. If you hit me, he won't let you off the hook."

"Slap!"

Hao Jian simply slapped him across the face and continued to ask with a smile, "Who did you say your boss was again?"

"It's nothing," Yellow Hair said, covering his face and looking annoyed.

The fact that the other party dared to hit him even after he mentioned his boss clearly showed he didn't care; repeating it would make no difference.

"Does it feel good to bully defenseless civilians? If you're so tough, why don't you join the army and go to the battlefield? It'd be so much better to direct that thuggish energy at external enemies. Why the hell do you bully innocent people?" Hao Jian squinted and asked.

Yellow Hair remained silent.

Then Hao Jian slapped him again, "Fuck, I'm talking to you. Make some noise, will you? You make me feel like I'm talking to myself."

Yellow Hair felt like crying. Who the hell was the real hooligan here?

"Yutong, your teacher, he's kind of... kind of..."

"Kind of like a gangster, right?" Jiang Yutong said with a wry smile.

"Yes, exactly," the auntie nodded vigorously.

"I don't know about that, but I do know that the last time I met him in a bar, he took down several bodyguards and even fed them some... medicine," Jiang Yutong said.

"Ah? He's that bad?" The auntie was shocked, finding it hard to reconcile Hao Jian's scholarly appearance with his dirty deeds.

"Yeah, but that time, he did it to help me out. There was a rich second generation named Ouyang Shaohua who tried to trick me into drinking a spiked drink, and Teacher found out. Then he beat up that Ouyang Shaohua," Jiang Yutong recounted.

After hearing this, the auntie was also startled, saying, "So that means the teacher has saved our family twice now? How can you call him a bad person then?"

"I... I initially thought he did that just to get close to me, you know? Didn't you say it's important to be cautious of others?" Jiang Yutong pouted, feeling wronged.

"You... Ah, really, you're so confused!" The auntie didn't even know what to say to Jiang Yutong anymore.

"Big brother, I know I was wrong. I won't collect protection money from this area anymore, and I won't bother these two women again. Please... please spare me!" Realizing that he couldn't provoke Hao Jian, Yellow Hair could only start begging for mercy.

"Spare you? But you were just about to stab me to death. What if you let me stab you once, and then we call it even? How about that?" Hao Jian asked, feigning a smile.

Yellow Hair immediately shook his head as if it were a rattle-drum, "No way, absolutely not. You're a teacher, how can you do such things?"

"Teaching is just my side job, actually, my main profession is the same as yours, a gangster," Hao Jian gave Yellow Hair a knowing look that said we're both in the same business.
