"Hey, are you friends with this person?" Luofeng looked over at that table and took the initiative to ask.
"No, we’re not." The two of them immediately shook their heads. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"We’re just sharing a table and don’t know each other." Their words were repetitive, and their gazes shifted uneasily. They were likely lying. After all, the police had been called. Who would want to get into more trouble at this point?
Luofeng didn’t make an issue of it but reminded them, "The shop has surveillance cameras. You are both witnesses. You know what to do when they arrive, right?"
"Got it, we understand..." The two nodded and replied.
Luofeng nodded in satisfaction, then sat across from Han Feifei and continued enjoying his bittern flapjack.
These large intestines are really good. So fragrant!
"Delicious, not bad. The food recommended by this young lady is impeccable," Luofeng affirmed.
As for Han Feifei? She could only look at Luofeng, somewhat speechless. Does this guy still have the appetite to eat? After what just happened? Isn’t he afraid of being charged with mutual combat?
"Hey, you..." Han Feifei’s hesitant gaze was on Luofeng.
"Eat, young lady. Don’t you like it?" Luofeng asked her instead.
"Uh, aren’t you worried?" Han Feifei, exasperated, pointed at the person lying on the ground.
"What’s there to worry about? He provoked me for no reason. I was protecting a girl," Luofeng said, then started to make complaints, "To be honest, my impression of the small Hutongs in the Capital City just got a lot worse. Incidents like this make me feel like I’m living in some ancient era."
"No, your ’protection’ was too aggressive. You knocked the person out," said Han Feifei, speechless.
"So what if I knocked him out? He deserved it! Who told him to bully you? If I don’t act, fine. But if I act, I go all in!" Luofeng said earnestly, then secretly grinned to himself as he glanced at the unlucky fellow on the ground.
Han Feifei’s face reddened a bit, and a touched look appeared in her eyes.
"Young man, let me tell you, this is definitely considered mutual combat. And since the other person is injured, your situation could be even more serious than his."
"Why?" Luofeng asked.
"Don’t ask. If you have to ask, it only counts as self-defense if the other person was chasing you and hitting you."
"Oh." Luofeng said nothing further and continued eating.
Uncle Li personally brought over the fried liver and apologized, "I am so sorry, young man, truly sorry. You’ve misunderstood. This kind of incident has never happened here before. We’ve never had anything like this."
"Huh!" Luofeng was at a loss for words. How am I supposed to respond to that? So it’s my fault then?
In fact, it really was Luofeng’s fault.
The person lying on the ground and the two trying to distance themselves were all agents from the security bureau, cooperating with Han Feifei’s assignment. The plan was to give Han Feifei the opportunity to play the ’beauty saves the hero.’ Of course, the so-called ’beauty saves the hero’ wasn’t about Han Feifei knocking out the guys with a few punches and kicks, but rather deterring them with words and resolving the issue with her colleagues. This would bring Luofeng and Han Feifei closer, as Han Feifei planned to use Luofeng’s connections in Bangkok to continue her investigation into the Flour Group, for which they had preliminary clues.

Seeing that, how could I not retaliate? I was only trying to cooperate with your initial desire. Since your first desire changed to this... I certainly had to fight back. And I had to make it look good.
But... I’ve already fought. How can I cooperate with your ’beauty saves the hero’ scenario now? Unless time could be reversed...
