Top Soldier Pursued by a Beauty

Zhao Dong's brows instantly furrowed, his cold gaze falling on the man in a floral shirt sitting behind him.

Noticing Zhao Dong's stare, the man sneered. "Yo, pretty boy, what are you looking at? Got a problem?"

A strange smile touched Zhao Dong's lips. "So you're Wang Jing's cowardly ex-husband?"

"Cowardly ex-husband?" The man's face instantly darkened. "Wang Jing, it seems the things you say about me aren't very flattering, are they?"

Wang Jing's face was filled with fear. "No... I... I didn't say anything bad about you! We're leaving right now..." she stammered, pulling at Zhao Dong to get him to leave.

SMASH! The man grabbed a nearby beer bottle and slammed it down on the table. "I, Li Qing, didn't say you could leave. Who the fuck dares to move?"

At his words, seven or eight thugs immediately surrounded them, brandishing beer bottles.

"Fuck! Where did this bastard come from, daring to mess with Brother Qing's woman? You're asking to die!"

"Kid, if you know what's good for you, get on your knees and kowtow a few times. Otherwise, don't even think about walking out of here today!"

The thugs were menacing, certain they had Zhao Dong cornered.

Terrified, Wang Jing quickly pulled Zhao Dong behind her and shouted at Li Qing, "Li Qing! I already divorced you! We have nothing to do with each other anymore!

"You stick to your gang business, and I'll stick to being a masseuse. Who I eat with is none of your goddamn concern!"

"Heh, nothing to do with me?"

SMACK! A loud slap landed viciously across Wang Jing's face.

"You fucking bitch! You were born my woman, and you'll die my ghost! Until I say otherwise, you belong to me!"

Li Qing smoothed his bangs. "So, you want to protect this new man of yours, is that it?" he sneered. "Fine. As long as you take good care of me and my brothers tonight, I'll spare this mongrel!"

BOOM! The words struck like a thunderclap. Wang Jing fell into utter despair, trembling as she spoke, "Li Qing! Are you even human? We were husband and wife! How can you throw me to these... these animals?"

"Oh? As a masseuse, haven't enough men had their fun with you?" Li Qing sneered. "Since strangers get to enjoy you, why can't I let my brothers have a taste?"

"Brother Qing is awesome!"

"Brother Qing, you're a true man of passion! From now on, you're my real dad!"

"Hehehe, I've had my eye on Brother Qing's woman for a while now. He's so generous, always thinking of his brothers when good things come along!"

CRASH! Li Qing smashed another bottle. "So," he threatened, "are you going to serve us, or should we beat this mongrel to death?"

Tears streamed down her face as her world turned gray. Just a short while ago, she had felt as if her world was finally brightening up. Who would have thought that in just a few short hours, the light would be extinguished once more?

She turned her head mechanically toward Zhao Dong and gripped his hand tightly. "Zhao Dong... thank you," she said, her voice filled with pain. "Thank you for making me feel alive again... But I can't drag you into this...

"These people are ruthless gangsters. They're desperados. You can't afford to provoke them... Please, just go... Go now..."

The onlookers murmured among themselves. Li Qing's actions filled them with fury, but they dared not speak out.

"What a shame..."

"The kid's got some backbone, but why is he trying to stand up to these thugs?"

"Yeah, these guys are psychopaths who don't care about their own lives. If I were him, I'd get out of here fast. Staying is just a death sentence."

"Even if he gets beaten to death, the girl will still be at their mercy. It's pointless."

The crowd sighed and shook their heads.

Triumph filled Li Qing's eyes as he looked at Zhao Dong with contempt, as if he were watching a clown perform.

But just then, Zhao Dong pulled Wang Jing behind him. "I told you," he said in a grave voice, "as long as I'm here, no one can bully you. No one!"

With that, Zhao Dong took a step forward and looked Li Qing straight in the eye. "Tell me, how do you want to die?"

BOOM! The question landed like a thunderbolt in the hearts of everyone present.

"Holy shit! Is this guy's brain full of crap? He's asking Li Qing how he wants to die?"

"Saving the damsel in distress is one thing, but you have to pick your battles! Stepping up now just makes him a reckless idiot."

"Sigh, by provoking Li Qing's crew, he's signed his own death warrant."

Li Qing and his men were stunned for a moment before bursting into roaring laughter.

"Hahahaha... Brother Qing, this kid just asked how you want to die!"

"Kid, did you get your head slammed in a door? Or are you just so lovesick you're willing to die for a woman?"

"Hehehe, I just love a tough one!"

At that moment, a sleazy-looking lackey leered at Zhao Dong's backside and made a creepy suggestion, "Brother Qing, how about you leave this one to me?"
