Mu Yan was scared stiff on the side. Even though she acted like a wild and unrestrained girl, but the present situation was alien to even her.

Mu Yan had half a mind to run away. However, she felt that every thug had eyes on her and Wu Chen.

Wu Chen's call quickly connected.

"Huh. Who are you? How do you this number?" The voice behind the phone was horse and alert. This phone number was private, and very few people were aware of it. Only a few bigshots and influential people were allowed to use this number to contact him.

"Zhao Guaizi, you dare order your brothers to make trouble? Did you forget what you said at the meeting held in May? Something about making money together, wasn't it? Are you trying to start a war and cause disturbance?" Wu Chen went straight to the point.

Zhou Guaizi, on the other side of the phone, was stunned.

'The other party knows about the meeting!'

'He also knows about this number.'

"Y-you are..." Zhou Guaizi asked carefully.

"Li Gongzi (Gongzi is not the name. It's a respectful title like Mr.) asked me to bring you a message. Keep your people in check. Otherwise, the next time won't be as simple as a phone call," said Wu Chen.

"L-Li Gongzi, you, y-yes... I assure you this won't happen again. It was my fault, and I will change." Actually, Zhou Guaizi had no idea about what he did wrong, but he admitted his mistake anyway.

"Wait," said Wu Chen and passed the phone to Liu Hubei, "You talk."

Liu Hubei took the phone suspiciously. However, when he heard the voice from the other side, his face was instantly filled with respect.

"Big Brother, it's me. Y-yes, Big Brother, we are at Wang Zhuangyuan's bar. No, Big Brother, we weren't making trouble. It's no big deal, Big Brother. S-sorry Big Brother. I was wrong. I was stupid, Big Brother."

Liu Hubei became more scared with each passing second; cold sweat was dripping from his forehead.

Soon, he got off the phone and made some distance from Wu Chen while respectfully hading him the phone.

Wu Chen took the phone and listened.

"I apologize. There won't happen again. You can do whatever you want with Liu Hubei," said Zhou Guaizi respectfully.

Wu Chen hanged the phone and looked at Liu Hubei.

THUMP!

Liu Hubei quickly kneeled and begged: "Brother, I was wrong. I don't wanna die, Brother. I have a family to look after. Please, forgive me!"

SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!

To show his sincerity, Liu Hubei began slapping himself.

Seeing this, all the other punks were scared shitless. They couldn't even lift their face and stare directly at Wu Chen.

"Apologize to her and scram." Wu Chen tilted his head and gestured.

Liu Hubei kneeled before Mu Yan and apologized to her while slapping his face: "Sister-in-law, I was wrong. Please forgive me. I will do anything you say. Just forgive me."

Liu Hubei directly called her sister-in-law. He clearly misunderstood Mu Yan and Wu Chen's relationship.

Mu Yan was at a loss and couldn't help but look at Wu Chen.

"Okay, It's getting late. I wanna go home and sleep," said Wu Chen.

"Thank you, brother. Thank you, sister-in-law." In his excitement, Liu Hubei banged his head on the floor even harder.

As soon as he got up, he promptly left with his brothers. Quite likely, this was his last visit to this bar.

"Leaving just like this?" said Wu Chen lightly.

Liu Hubei went stiff, turning around, he asked, "W-what do you mean?"

"Did you forget the rules? Make a mistake, what's the punishment?" Wu Chen looked straight at Liu Hubei, his eyes still tranquil.

Liu Hubei understood. Steeling his face, he gritted his teeth and took a knife out.

Mu Yan got scared and hid behind Wu Chen.

Liu Hubei took the knife in his right hand and spread his left hand on a table.

SLASH!

The knife went down and chopped Liu Hubei's thumb off. His face went pale with pain, but he didn't dare to scream.

Liu Hubei dropped the knife and covered the wound with a tissue. With a pale face, he smiled and asked, "Brother, is this okay?"

"Sure." Wu Chen stood and tossed the severed thumb into a garbage bin. "I'm leaving. You people don't leave yet. First, fix the bar, and second, compensate everyone's losses."

"Yes. We will listen to you," said Liu Hubei while bowing.

"Let's go." Wu Chen walked outside. The punks naturally bowed their heads, not daring to lift their heads up.

Mu Yan caught up with Wu Chen and locked her arms with him.

Wu Chen had no intention of bringing her with him.

Although the matter was resolved, Mu Yan was still scared.

When they got out of the bar, a dozen or so cars suddenly stopped before the bar's gate. Most of them were commercial and off-road vehicles. However, there were also two supercars: a white Lamborghini and a red Ferarri.

30 to 40 people got down from the cars. All of them held rods and sticks, wrapped in newspapers.

The leader of the group was obviously the one riding the Lamborghini.

The man was neither too tall nor too thin. He was in his early 30s. He wore glasses and looked very gentle.

He was the famous Wang Zhuangyuan of Donghai. His real was Wang Zhe, Wang Zhuangyuan being his street name. 15 years ago, he was the topper of Donghai collage's science and technology stream entrance exam.

Wang Zhuangyuan had just finished the elder's funeral and was planning to take his brothers out for dinner when he got a report from the bartender. Apparently, Zhou Guaizi's men were making trouble in his bar.

Mu Yan looked like someone in the 20s, and Wu Chen also looked like a college student.

Wang Zhuangyuan and his things didn't suspect them at all and directly walked inside the bar.

When nobody was noticing, Wu Chen brushed his hand near Wang Zhuangyuan.

Finally, Wu Chen and Mu Yan were on the road.

Wu Chen turned and saw that Wang Zhuangyuan and his thugs had entered the bar. He took out a key from his pocket and pressed it.

Suddenly, the white Lamborgini flashed and unlocked.

"You..." Wu Yan was shocked.

"I just borrowed it. Let's go."

'Car theft? Whatever.'

They quickly boarded the car.

Wu Chen pressed the accelerator, and they drove off.

Stealing cars was nothing big for Wu Chen, the day was gonna reset anyway. He could kill without batting an eye, why would he even care about stealing?

Regardless of the evil he did, he made sure never to hurt an innocent.

Being trapped on the same day for thousands of years made Wu Chen do some pretty crazy things in desperation. He had committed suicide more time than he could count. Yet, he would wake up to the same morning of July 7th, 2020.

Finally, he accepted the fact that he couldn't escape this loop. To enrich his life, he began setting up challenges for himself. He wanted to make his endless life a bit more pleasant.

Half an hour later.

The white Lamborgin raced along a bridge, the speed had long surpassed the safe zone. It was a thrilling experience!

"Whooo." Mu Yan was enjoying every second of it.

Mu Yan had a wild personality and loved to have adrenaline rushes. Everything that happened tonight excited her to no end. Today was probably the most exciting day of her life.

Today, she met a magical man!

After getting off the bridge, the car slowed down, and finally stopped on a side.

"Get off. Take a taxi home." Wu Chen rapped on the steering wheel.

"Take a taxi?" Mu Yan blinked. "Aren't you sending me home?"

"It's too far. I'm sleepy."

"You know where I live?"

"Of course. How many times do I have to tell you that this isn't the first time we meet?"

"Che~ Liar." Mu Yan hummed and thought for a while. Finally, her expression became a little strange as she smiled. "I won't go home tonight."

"Where are you going then?" asked Wu Chen.

"Wait a minute," said Mu Yan. Taking out a bottle of makeup remover and a cotton pad, she removed her makeup.

Soon, her face was completely clean.

"How do I look now?" Mu Yan asked with a smile.

Wu Chen smiled, looked out the front window, and said, "Then my home it is."
