The others in the private room were alarmed and turned to look. However, no one stepped forward to mediate. Instead, their gazes towards Xiao Yunlong held a hint of schadenfreude.
Liu Ruyan had lost all interest in singing. She quickly walked over and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"
Wei Qianqian pouted, "Ruyan, your friend is too unappreciative. We just wanted to do our part as hosts and greet him, but he actually told us to shut up. Moreover, he even insulted Ouyang Youxu. This person truly lacks manners and character!"
"It's not that I'm saying this, Ruyan, but even though your academic performance is good, your taste in boyfriends is terrible!"
Liu Ruyan could only apologize with a smile, "I'm truly sorry, everyone. If Brother Xiao was disrespectful just now, I apologize on his behalf!"
It was evident that Liu Ruyan was very nervous and worried. Of course, she wasn't worried about Xiao Yunlong, but rather for Ouyang Youxu and the others.
After all, last night at the Hongmen tavern, Brother Xiao had killed those Fusang warriors without batting an eyelid. He wouldn't even spare these guys like Ouyang Youxu, and it was possible that someone would die again tonight.
"Everyone, I'm really sorry. I'm not feeling well, so we'll be leaving now." Liu Ruyan gave an apologetic smile and pulled Xiao Yunlong, wanting to leave. She was genuinely worried that Xiao Yunlong would erupt.
Ouyang Youxu, however, directly blocked their path and sneered, "Ruyan, it's not your fault, so why are you apologizing to us?"
As he spoke, Ouyang Youxu turned to Xiao Yunlong and chuckled mockingly, "Xiao, weren't you very arrogant just now? Backing down? If you have the guts, stand up to me now!"
Wei Qianqian also pouted and muttered, "Exactly. A useless good-for-nothing who only knows how to live off his girlfriend, yet he wants to put on airs in front of us. Doesn't he even know his own limits!"
Liu Ruyan tightly gripped Xiao Yunlong's arm, fearing he would lose control and lash out.
"Classmate Ouyang, I really don't feel well. Please let us leave. I'm truly sorry tonight for disturbing everyone's good time," Liu Ruyan said.
"Ruyan, where are you not feeling well? Is it serious? Do you want me to take you to the hospital right away? I drove here!"
Ouyang Youxu immediately changed his tune, and while speaking, he flashed his BMW key in front of Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan didn't even look at him. "No need. Brother Xiao will accompany me. Goodbye!"
Saying this, she tightened her grip on Xiao Yunlong's hand and prepared to leave again.
In fact, Xiao Yunlong had remained silent not because he was afraid. As the dignified King of Zhenbei, who had never flinched in the face of thousands of enemy soldiers, how could he fear these insignificant nobodies?
The reason he didn't step forward was twofold: firstly, it wasn't worth his time to bother with them; secondly, these people were Liu Ruyan's college classmates, and he had to give Ruyan some face.
Unfortunately, Ouyang Youxu and the others failed to recognize this. Seeing Xiao Yunlong's silence made them believe he was indeed backing down in fear, thus making them even more arrogant.
"Ruyan, since you're not feeling well today, I won't force you to stay. As for that Xiao fellow, for your sake, I won't make things too difficult for him..."
Ouyang Youxu said this, then turned and picked up a large cup. He first poured half a cup of baijiu into it, then half a cup of red wine, and finally spat into it.
He handed the cup to Xiao Yunlong and sneered, "I won't make things difficult for him. As long as he drinks this cup of wine, I'll let him leave!"
"Drink! Drink! Drink!"
Several of Fu Mingquan's friends around them started to egg them on.
Wei Qianqian said with a smile, "It's just a cup of wine. Xiao, if you're still a man, drink it down like a man. Of course, if you think you have the guts, you can refuse. But don't blame me for not reminding you beforehand, even the owner of this Huangcheng KTV is a friend of Ouyang Youxu's father."
Fu Mingquan also chimed in, "Drink it quickly, don't make things unpleasant for everyone. Otherwise, I can't guarantee you'll walk out of this entertainment city upright. When you came in, you should have seen the bodyguards everywhere, and many of them are tough guys from the underworld. As soon as Young Master Ouyang calls out, they can rush in within minutes!"
Liu Ruyan tightly gripped Xiao Yunlong's arm, and anyone who didn't know better would think she was scared.
Xiao Yunlong's expression remained calm. He patted Liu Ruyan's shoulder, signaling her to let go, and then stepped forward. "After all, you are just students and Ruyan's classmates. For Ruyan's sake, as long as you move aside now, I can forgive your rudeness. Otherwise..."
However, before he could finish, Ouyang Youxu exploded, mockingly saying, "Otherwise what? Are you going to hit me? Try it, you waste, do you have the guts..."
Xiao Yunlong's expression turned stern. He grabbed Ouyang Youxu by the hair and forcefully pushed him down.
With a bang!
Ouyang Youxu's head slammed heavily onto the table.
"You don't know what's good for you. You trash like you dare to bark at me?"
Xiao Yunlong snorted coldly, picked up a bottle of wine from the table, and poured it directly onto Ouyang Youxu's face.
Ouyang Youxu struggled frantically, but his entire head was pinned to the table by Xiao Yunlong, making it impossible to break free.
Xiao Yunlong picked up bottle after bottle of beer and poured it onto his face. The choking caused him to cry out in pain, his snot and tears streaming down.
Fu Mingquan, Wei Qianqian, and the others had never seen such a scene before and were simply stunned. The five or six students who had been gloating were also scared stiff.
After pouring all the wine on the table, Xiao Yunlong finally stopped. He grabbed Ouyang Youxu by the neck as if he were a chick and lifted him up, saying, "Excuse me, can I leave now?"
"Yes... yes!" Ouyang Youxu coughed repeatedly, drenched in wine, his hair disheveled, looking utterly pathetic.
"Ruyan, let's go!" Xiao Yunlong threw Ouyang Youxu onto the sofa, grabbed Liu Ruyan's hand, and turned to leave.
Only after walking out of the private room did Liu Ruyan let out a long sigh of relief. She had been genuinely afraid that Brother Xiao would kill someone if they disagreed.
However, it seemed that Brother Xiao was quite measured and didn't go for the kill, only teaching the other party a lesson appropriately.
As Xiao Yunlong's figure completely disappeared, Ouyang Youxu could no longer hold back. He roared up at the sky, "Xiao, you bastard, how dare you lay a hand on me? I'll kill you..."
Without even bothering to wipe the wine stains from his face, Ouyang Youxu quickly took out his phone and made a call.
"Let's go, let's quickly go to the main hall outside. I just called Master Fei!" Ouyang Youxu said, got up, wiped his face casually, and quickly walked out.
Wei Qianqian and the others knew that the Master Fei Ouyang Youxu mentioned was actually the owner of this Huangcheng KTV.
"Now there's a good show to watch. Let's hurry!" Wei Qianqian said with a playful smile and quickly followed him out. Everyone in the private room followed suit.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yunlong and Liu Ruyan walked through the long corridor to the main hall outside, preparing to leave.
Suddenly, more than ten burly bodyguards in black suits rushed out from all directions, surrounding the two in an instant.
A middle-aged man in casual suits, with a bulging belly, walked over with a swagger. Ouyang Youxu was by his side.
"Nephew Youxu, is that the kid? Did he hit you?" the middle-aged man with the bulging belly asked in a gruff voice.
"Yes, Master Fei, it was this kid who did it!" Ouyang Youxu said through gritted teeth.
"Damn it, daring to cause trouble on my turf, he's really gone too far. Nephew Youxu, don't worry, your father asked me to help you get even today!"
Master Fei walked up, and as soon as he saw Liu Ruyan, his small, beady eyes lit up instantly, and his gaze became greedy.
"Kid, I won't waste my breath with you. I'll give you two choices. First, kneel down and kowtow, then crawl between Ouyang Youxu's legs; second, leave your girlfriend here to sleep with me for a night, otherwise, I can't guarantee you'll walk out of this door alive!"
The bulging-bellied Master Fei said this with a look of mockery.
Ouyang Youxu, without a word, spread his legs apart.
Wei Qianqian, Fu Mingquan, and the others watched from the side with expressions of schadenfreude.
Luo Liping couldn't bear to watch and hesitantly said, "I think we're all classmates, there's no need to go this far, right? Making Xiao Yunlong apologize should be enough."
*Slap!*
Ouyang Youxu slapped her, causing her to stagger and almost fall.
Luo Liping covered her rapidly swelling face, no longer daring to intercede.
Xiao Yunlong's expression darkened, and he frowned, "You call yourself Master Fei, huh? You're making such a big scene right from the start. Are you not planning to reason with me?"
"Reason?"
Master Fei burst into laughter and raised his fist, saying, "Listen up, kid. Today, I'll teach you a lesson. In the world of martial arts, it's about fists. Whoever's fists are bigger and harder, they have the reason!"
"So it's about fists. I've learned!"
Xiao Yunlong finished speaking and punched the man in the stomach.
With a yelp, the bulging-bellied Master Fei squatted on the ground, clutching his stomach.
