Chapter 164 Black Trade (First Watch)

Before Ye Cheng even made a move, Baozi knelt on the ground, "Look, brother, I was just talking big earlier. I never really meant to make your sister stay. You see how timid I am, I’m clearly not one to do bad things. We just wanted to extort some road fees from the passing drivers, honestly, we had no intention of harming anyone."
They relied on their numerical advantage, simply standing next to lone drivers was usually enough to intimidate them. Most drivers preferred to avoid hassle and would rather pay up than make a fuss.
The others, seeing Baozi acting so cowardly, were truly unable to watch, all turning their backs, not wanting to look any longer.
The man who usually acted the toughest was so timid at the crucial moment. It was a real eye-opener.
Ye Cheng looked at him, raising one hand, and Baozi, without any regard for himself, clutched at Ye Cheng’s legs, looking pitifully at Xiaofeng, "Miss, please put in a good word for me. I really meant no harm to you."
Xiaofeng glanced at Ye Cheng, then at the man clinging to his legs, and silently lit a candle for him in her heart. Of all people to hold onto, you had to choose Ye Cheng.

The others, witnessing the silhouette that flew over their heads, could not bear to look directly, their eyes tearing up silently. What kind of a tough nut had they encountered tonight, handling a grown man as if he were a mere chick. Even with five of them, they were no match.
