Several thugs looked at him mockingly, believing the young man was incapable of achieving anything significant.
Seeing someone coming to her aid, the girl rushed over and hid behind Mu Feng.
What followed, however, left Mu Feng completely stunned.
"Don't come any closer, he's my boyfriend!" the girl peeked out her head, whispering.
Hearing this, Mu Feng nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. He said in a low voice, "My dear girl, you're going a bit too far..."
"Sir, I'm truly sorry. I had no choice. If I say this, they won't trouble me. I'll treat you to this meal!" the girl said softly.
Mu Feng sighed helplessly and said, "Alright then. For the sake of this free lunch, I'll reluctantly agree!"
"Hehe, thank you so much, sir!" The girl felt a great weight lifted from her heart.
In her mind, having said that, the other party would surely back down.
However, to her utter disbelief, the punk with yellow hair insisted, "I don't care who he is. A woman I desire is mine. Kid, give her up and take this money. Now get lost!"
As he spoke, the yellow-haired punk pulled out five hundred-yuan bills and tossed them onto the ground.
"Crawl over here and pick it up. This money will be yours!" he sneered.
Facing the insult, Mu Feng shook his head. "I am indeed her boyfriend. Now you can all leave. Please take this money with you!"
"Oh, this kid's got some nerve, daring to defy Young Master Long?" one of the thugs asked incredulously, mocking him.
The yellow-haired punk pointed at Mu Feng's nose and yelled, "You ungrateful brat, didn't you understand when I told you to take the money and get lost?"
"My patience has its limits. Hurry up, let's not make this unpleasant for everyone!" Mu Feng rubbed his tiger's mouth, his smile gone.
Seeing that the other party completely ignored him, the yellow-haired punk immediately gestured to his subordinates, "You guys, give him a lesson!"
Soon, several thugs rolled up their sleeves and menacingly walked towards Mu Feng.
The girl was also terrified, her face pale. She regretfully said, "Ah? They actually... Sir, you should leave quickly. There are too many of them..."
"It's alright. For this free lunch, a little effort is all that's needed!" Mu Feng stretched, not taking them seriously at all.
The thugs surrounded him and, without a word, began their assault with fists and kicks.
However, Mu Feng was no pushover. These individuals were even weaker than ants before him.
Before the thugs could react, they were knocked to the ground, one punch after another, and knocked unconscious.
The yellow-haired punk furrowed his brow slightly and yelled, "Good heavens, you've got some skills! No wonder you have the confidence. I've decided, you'll follow me from now on. Your woman is mine now!"
Mu Feng looked at him as if he were an idiot. "Are you kidding me? Follow you? Can you be any more childish?"
"Heh, you think being skilled makes you great? I just appreciate talent, which is why I want you to follow me. Otherwise, what are you?"
The yellow-haired punk spoke arrogantly, walking right up to Mu Feng, his finger almost touching his nose.
Mu Feng chuckled. "So, I should be thanking you then?"
He waved his hand proudly. "No need for thanks. Just be filial to this young master in the future. And now is the time to show your filial piety. Let's see how filial you are to me!"
As he spoke, his lewd gaze remained fixed on the girl.
Mu Feng rubbed his nose. "Naturally. I wonder what Young Master Long likes to eat?"
"Oh? You want to treat me to a meal? Not bad, not bad. That shows some understanding. Let me think!"
The yellow-haired punk almost burst out laughing, his expression filled with contempt.
Mu Feng didn't reply, but instead clenched his fist. "I wonder if you like to eat buns?"
"Buns? Crab roe soup dumplings are acceptable..."
Before the yellow-haired punk could finish, a fist unceremoniously slammed into his stomach.
He felt a searing pain, and all the sour liquid in his stomach surged out. He then crouched down, clutching his belly in an undignified manner.
The coffee shop manager, startled by this scene, quickly hid to avoid any involvement.
"Kid, you... you dared to hit me? Do you know who I am?" the yellow-haired punk gritted his teeth, finally managing to stand up.
Mu Feng played along. "Didn't you say you liked eating buns? Conveniently, you can taste my buns. How about that?"
"Don't you dare leave! I'm calling for backup!" The yellow-haired punk fumbled for his phone, about to dial.
"Sir, you should leave quickly. This person seems difficult to deal with!" The girl's eyes welled up with tears.
Mu Feng nonchalantly said, "If he feels unsatisfied, let him call for backup. Otherwise, how uncomfortable will he feel later?"
"You've got guts!" the yellow-haired punk said a bunch of nonsense after connecting the call.
After hanging up, he seemed much more spirited.
He swaggered, "Kid, you'll be chopped into meat paste later. If you're scared now, you can run. Of course, I guarantee that even if you hide in a trash can, my people will find you!"
Mu Feng nodded. "Yes, that's quite impressive. I'll be waiting!"
Afterward, Mu Feng returned to his own table and continued eating.
The girl sat opposite him, her heart filled with anxiety.
About ten minutes later, the roar of motorcycles could be heard from outside the coffee shop.
A group of thugs on motorcycles sped to the coffee shop entrance and braked sharply.
Soon, about twenty thugs, brandishing cleavers, rushed in and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Young Master Long!"
The yellow-haired punk licked his lips, feeling extremely smug. "Kid, when has Long Tiangao ever been insulted like this? See? These are the people I casually called. Each one could chop you into meat paste for dumplings. If you're scared now, quickly kneel before this young master!"
Mu Feng glanced at the group of thugs. "So many people, I'm really scared!"
"Heh, since you know you're scared, do you know what to do?" Long Tiangao's face was beaming with joy.
Mu Feng wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth and stood up. "What if I refuse to kneel?"
"If you refuse to kneel, then my men can only slaughter you like a pig!" Long Tiangao's eyes burned with killing intent.
