Chapter 72: The Fall of the Liu Family

  Xi Gorge Manor

  In the morning, Tong Jiang was awakened by the sound of fighting from next door. Although he had drunk a lot of wine last night, under his keen sense of alertness, even with good soundproofing in the room, the fighting sound was just too loud. So Tong Jiang directly wrapped himself in a bathrobe and went to the next room with a messy head of hair.

  Mo Fang also drank a lot of wine last night, and when he woke up in a daze, his head was throbbing with pain, feeling dull and heavy as if he had been hit by a stick. Before he could even recover from the hangover, he suddenly realized that there was someone beside him, a man, who had wrapped his long arms and legs around him.

  "Great, great, you've even crawled onto my bed! You're really doing your job as a bodyguard!" Enraged to the point of laughter, Mu Fang's face was terrible, the elegant and noble air about him had completely disappeared. His absolutely beautiful face was covered in a frost-like tension, his foot fiercely kicking towards Tan Jingyu beside him.

  Unfortunately, Tan Jingyu didn't sleep well last night because of Tan Jieyan's arrival and departure. When Mu Fang woke up, he was still sleeping, but his vigilance was no less than Tong Ying's, even in his sleep, he maintained 100% defense.

  So when Mu Fang kicked over, Tan Jingyu's body was in mid-air for a split second, one hand grabbed Mu Fang's fist that followed, and with a twist of his hand, his body pressed directly onto Mu Fang's body, his long legs entwining Mu Fang's legs, and in less than three seconds, he had completely subdued Mu Fang.

  Mo Fang's arm was twisted behind his back, and the pain made him grimace on his stunningly handsome face. His already irritable mood had reached its worst at this moment. At this time, Tan Jingyu had woken up and immediately released Mo Fang's hands, but he didn't expect that as soon as Mo Fang got free, a punch came flying straight towards him, hitting Tan Jingyu right in the eye.

  "Hey, don't you know not to hit someone in the face?!" Tan Jingyu's anger was also rising now, and Mu Fang's punch was quite forceful, causing Tan Jingyu to see stars in front of his eyes.

  "Do you still care about the location when hitting someone? Do you want me to draw a map, circle the firepower points, and then hit again?" Mu Fang sneered with a cold smile, and after freeing his body, he immediately attacked Tan Jingyu again.

  Mo Fang had learned Sanda and Taekwondo, and was considered a mid-to-high level practitioner. However, what he had learned were all set routines - how the coach would attack, and how the students would counterattack. This might be enough to deal with ordinary people, but Tan Jingyu was no ordinary person. He was a true master of the knife, and his moves were fast, ruthless, and accurate.

  Five minutes later, without any suspense, Tan Jingyu won completely. Except for a punch in the middle of his eyes, there was not a single wound on his body. At this moment, Mu Fang was squatting on the ground with his hands covering his abdomen, his bathrobe wrinkled and loose on his body. His stomach had been punched, it hurt so much that it felt like all the internal organs in his abdomen were twisted together, even breathing was painful.

  "Hey, are you okay?" Tan Jingyu had actually already controlled his strength and saw that Mu Fang was just pretending to fight, so he naively joined in. Although Mu Fang got hit quite a few times, they were all superficial wounds and would heal on their own after two or three days without needing any medicine.

  "Get out!" A loud slap opened Tan Jingyu's hand that was reaching out to grab her own, Mu Fang's beautiful peach blossom eyes were staring at Tan Jingyu's disgusting smile like they were on fire, a sharp pain in her stomach made Mu Fang's already distressed face twist again, her eyebrows were scrunched together and cold sweat seeped through her skin.

  He had a bad stomach, drank a lot of wine last night, and his stomach was uncomfortable. Just now, Tan Jingyu's punch wasn't aimed at the abdomen, but Mo Fangguang slipped on the floor with one foot, so this punch hit the abdomen, which hurt terribly.

  "Is that all?" Tan Jingyu had a great time, his mood was pleasant and his body felt comfortable, especially since he was the winner. Of course, if he had lost to Mu Fang, he wouldn't have been able to return to the military district, and would probably have been shot by Old Man Tan himself. But now that Tan Jingyu had won, he didn't think it was shameful at all, and laughed, almost singing a song to celebrate his victory.

  Mo Fang waited for the severe pain to subside, supported herself on the bed frame and stood up, pulled her bathrobe, still with a proud and beautiful face, pale and glanced at Tan Jingyu with a slanted gaze, like a queen walking towards the bathroom. Even if she died from the pain, even if her stomach bled, she would absolutely not let this damn man look down on herself.

  In the living room, Tan Jingyu turned his head and took a look at the two people who were busy in the kitchen together. Second brother was in trouble, with an additional rival! No wonder last night second brother drove for more than two hours to Xixia Mountain. Following the principle of protecting one's own family members, Tan Jingyu decided that from now on he must keep an eye on Mu Fang and not let him really take Tongxiang away.

  Tong Jing had just put the bowl in the sink and hadn't had time to wash it, when her phone rang out clearly. Tong Jing's originally calm face unconsciously broke into a smile, her eyes shining brightly. She quickly put down the bowl in her hand, grabbed a paper towel to wipe her hands, and immediately picked up the phone as she walked towards the bedroom.

  Mo Fang furrowed his brow, looking at Tong Jing's face light up with a joyful smile when she heard the ringtone. The person on the other end of the call must be very important to her, otherwise she wouldn't have that kind of expression. A hint of bitterness slowly crept into his heart. Who was it? Guan Yao? It was clear that although the young man was the head of the criminal investigation department, he had a gentle and refined demeanor like a scholar, with a warm smile on his handsome face. He was also very concerned about Tong Jing, and seemed to be quite familiar with her. Previously, when Tong Jing was almost late for a shoot, Mo Fang investigated and found out that it was because of a police escort, and the person behind the scenes was Guan Yao.

  "Haven't you eaten yet? Hmm, wait for me, I'll be there in 15 minutes." Tong Jiao hung up the phone and quickly took down her coat from the clothes rack, then stuffed her phone into her bag. Thinking that Tan Jiayan still hadn't eaten until now was definitely because of the Liu family's matter, Tong Jiao felt a mix of emotions, including guilt.

  "Mu Ge, Tan San Ge, I'm going out for a bit." She quickly said to Tan Jingyu and Mu Fang who were also squeezed into the kitchen helping with washing dishes. Tong Jing's footsteps were light and quick as she walked towards the door, her face filled with joy at the prospect of seeing Tan Jingyu.

  "Little Tong..." Mu Fang wanted to stop Tong Tong from leaving, she had offended the Liu family, and today's incident at the hospital, the Liu family couldn't do anything to Tan Jingyu, but they would definitely find Little Tong to take revenge on her. However, Tong Tong was too fast, that face with a bright smile flashed before his eyes and disappeared outside the door.

  "Don't worry, with Yao around, Xiao Yatou won't be in danger. The Liu family can barely protect themselves now and wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Xiao Yatou." Tan Jingyu explained, seeing the obvious concern in Mu Fang's eyes, he secretly smiled, Second Brother, you owe him big time!

  "Really? Then you wash slowly, I'll go back." Putting his hands under the faucet to rinse them, he let out a soft sigh and turned around to leave the kitchen.

  "Hey, you'd better stay here for the time being until the matter with the Liu family is over. Who knows if they'll go crazy and try to drag someone down with them even in death? It's still dangerous for you to go out." Tan Jingyu swiftly blocked the way, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. The Liu family was now beyond salvation; who knew what they would do when driven to desperation - perhaps they'd bite like mad dogs.

  Xiao Tong is a bit better off, Guan Yao's people are secretly protecting her, but the person she sees must be her second brother, so there's no danger. However, when Mu Fang goes out alone, Tan Jingyu naturally can't help but worry.

  "Hey, you're really good at distorting the truth!" Mu Fang's mouth twitched with anger as he glared at Tan Jingyu, who was washing dishes. He said there was no danger, but also said there was - what a scoundrel!

  "Don't be too impressed with me, I'm just a legend." Tan Jingyu teased with a smile, glancing at Mu Fang, then humming a tune as he continued washing the dishes. "It's almost the end of the year anyway, you can take this opportunity to rest and relax. The matter with the Liu family will definitely be resolved by the end of the year at the latest, and next year will be another good year."

  Too lazy to bother with Tan Jingyu, she shook off the water on her hands and walked directly past the obstacles in her way into the living room, then headed towards the study on one side. Although she didn't want to admit it, this rascal did make some sense after all. The Liu family had been pushed to desperation, who knew what they would do? Xiaotang was safe with Guan Yao anyway.

  After Tong Ying accepted the movie "Years of Good Life" directed by Cheng Han, she used it more often. There were many professional books on the bookshelf, and there were all kinds of books. On the desk, there was a book about film introduction that Tong Ying was reading. Mu Fang picked it up casually and looked at it quietly, feeling calm and peaceful.
