"Really?" Lin Feng smiled as he saw that Lin Erhu had no intention of leaving after hearing his words. He stepped closer and asked.
"Yeah." Upon seeing Lin Feng's smile, Lin Erhu felt an inexplicable sense of unease, but he quickly adjusted himself. He was confident that Lin Feng wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Sure, if it came down to a one-on-one fight, Lin Feng might be able to hurt him, but would he give Lin Feng the chance for a fair fight?
The answer was naturally no. Even Lin Erhu himself didn't know when he had learned to bring a few lackeys with him when doing bad things. When it came to fighting, he wouldn't take the lead.
"Hehe..." Lin Feng continued to smile, but the next moment, he charged forward and slapped Lin Erhu across the face.
Regardless of whether he dared or not, Lin Feng answered with his actions.
Lin Feng knew that when dealing with a thug like Lin Erhu, you had to scare him into submission all at once. Otherwise, he would keep bothering you, and you'd have no way out; at the very least, you'd feel quite helpless.
So after slapping Lin Erhu, Lin Feng didn't stop but continued to beat him up. After all, he couldn't tolerate Lin Erhu's incessant chatter and his intentions toward Lin Xin.
"Ah... what are you all standing there for? Can't you see he's hitting me? Get him!" Lin Erhu didn't expect Lin Feng to be so ruthless, nor did he anticipate that Lin Feng could fight so well. Although he often got into fights himself, he couldn't even withstand a single move from Lin Feng. At this moment, he could only pin his hopes on his lackeys.
Lin Erhu's lackeys were also taken aback by how fierce Lin Feng was. They hesitated for a moment, but upon hearing Lin Erhu's call for help, they rushed forward in a group, ready to give Lin Feng a good beating.
"Hmph..." Seeing the group charging at him, Lin Feng scoffed disdainfully and then kicked each of them down to the ground.
Moreover, not satisfied yet, Lin Feng rushed over and gave those lying on the ground another round of heavy blows.
Usually, Lin Feng would consider Dong Jie's safety and try to stay close to her. However, now that Xu Meng was standing next to Dong Jie—Lin Feng had seen her skills firsthand—he felt confident enough to teach a lesson to Lin Erhu's lackeys without worry.
In fact, the reason why Lin Feng wanted to deal with these lackeys was twofold: first, it was for the sake of the people; it was obvious that these lackeys followed someone like Lin Erhu and were likely causing trouble in their area; second, Lin Feng had his own plan that required scaring these lackeys into submission first.
Alright, after a long while, Lin Feng felt it was about time and finally stopped.
He walked over and pulled Lin Erhu closer, still surrounded by his lackeys. Lin Feng said, "Are you afraid?"
"Afraid..." As Lin Feng had anticipated, the group of lackeys dared not hesitate any longer and immediately replied, hoping that after submitting, Lin Feng would show mercy and let them go.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng had no intention of letting them go just like that. Instead, he pointed to one of them and said, "You, take off one of Lin Erhu's arms."
"What? Me?" Even the dullest among them realized what Lin Feng intended. He was trying to incite them against each other—a clever scheme of discord.
However, Lin Feng's plan was somewhat different from ordinary schemes of discord. Typically, such plans are executed without the other party's knowledge. But now, Lin Feng was openly instructing one of them to remove Lin Erhu's arm right in front of him. Although Lin Erhu was aware of it, Lin Feng believed that given Lin Erhu's character, he would likely never use that lackey again.
"Hmm? Unwilling?" Lin Feng stepped forward and pressed.
The man did not respond but shook his head to indicate his unwillingness.
Seeing the man's attitude, Lin Feng understood that he was afraid of retaliation from Lin Erhu later. He turned to Lin Erhu and said, "Your intimidation factor is quite impressive."
Without waiting for a response from Lin Erhu, Lin Feng directly removed the arm of the person he had just pointed out. Then he took off the other arm as well; he wanted them to understand that if they chose not to remove Lin Erhu's arm, then fine—he would remove theirs instead.
Lin Feng ignored the screams of the man whose arms had just been removed and turned to the next lackey of Lin Erhu. He said again, "You, go take off one of Lin Erhu's arms."
The man still did not move. Lin Feng was unfazed; after all, Lin Erhu only had two arms, so someone was bound to miss their chance. He wasn't in a hurry.
Thus, with a smile on his face, he approached the man. Whatever he intended to do, Lin Feng believed they would know without him needing to say it.
Sure enough, as Lin Feng got closer to the man, he shouted and stood up. With determination, he stomped his foot and removed one of Lin Erhu's arms.
"Ah..." Lin Erhu did not expect his subordinate would actually remove his arm. A piercing pain surged through him; he felt as if he were about to faint from the agony.
"Mm." Lin Feng smiled and nodded at the person who was so "obedient," indicating his satisfaction, then turned his attention to the next individual.
"I'll do it, I'll do it." The person was just about to agree to Lin Feng's request when the other two were already competing to remove Lin Erhu's arm.
Lin Feng was not surprised by their eagerness to take off Lin Erhu's arm. The reason they had previously hesitated was mostly due to fear of Lin Erhu's retaliation afterward, rather than any brotherly bond with him. Lin Feng knew that someone like Lin Erhu would reward these sycophants with a treat when he was in a good mood, but if he was unhappy or if they failed in their tasks, Lin Erhu would not hold back. Therefore, these individuals could not possibly have any so-called "brotherly feelings" for Lin Erhu.
As expected, Lin Feng's guess was correct; when pushed to the limit, these people were now scrambling to remove Lin Erhu's arm.
"Hehe... This is a rare opportunity. Whoever acts quickly will be the one to take off his arm," Lin Feng said with a smile.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, several people rushed forward and began to torment Lin Erhu's arm.
Some even fought for a position and started disassembling the arm that had just been removed from Lin Erhu.
"Ah... Ah... You bunch of bastards." Lin Erhu's miserable cries echoed; at that moment, he truly felt worse than dead. Meanwhile, those individuals either feared offending Lin Feng or genuinely wanted to take this chance to retaliate against Lin Erhu, and they continued their actions without regard for his screams.
Perhaps they thought that since they had already offended Lin Erhu, they might as well make it more thorough.
Watching them scramble over each other, Lin Feng chose not to pay them any more attention and walked towards Dong Jie, telling her, "Call my mother out so they don't have to worry."
After saying this, Dong Jie began knocking on the door.
Lin Feng turned back and addressed the few people still energetically removing Lin Erhu's arms: "Alright, carry this guy away and make sure I don't see you again."
As for what kind of retaliation these people would face from Lin Erhu after removing his arms, Lin Feng did not consider it at all; after all, they were just dogs fighting dogs—one furball biting another. He couldn't be bothered with it.
Indeed, upon receiving Lin Feng's order, several individuals carried the now unconscious Lin Erhu away. They ignored Lin Feng's warning about not wanting to see them again—not because they weren't afraid of him, but because if possible, they swore they never wanted to see him again in their lives.
Once Dong Jie understood why Lin Mother wasn’t opening the door, she knocked while calling out her name. Soon enough, the door opened.
In fact, in the house were Lin Mother, Lin Ling, and Lin Xin. They had just heard what seemed to be Lin Feng's voice, but it wasn't very clear, and the sounds at that moment were quite chaotic. Therefore, Lin Mother thought it might be Lin Feng who had arrived but did not open the door. It was only when Dong Jie came to knock that Lin Ling realized through the crack of the door that her brother had indeed come back.
So, Lin Ling was the first to rush out. Although she didn't know how Lin Feng was doing or if he could handle Lin Erhu and the others, she believed that as long as her brother was there, he would definitely protect her. Thus, she dashed out.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Ling burst out of the house, she saw her brother, whom she hadn't seen for half a year, standing there smiling at her with open arms.
Lin Feng's gaze was familiar to Lin Ling; it was a doting look. Since childhood, Lin Feng had always spoiled Lin Ling. No matter what she wanted, he would do his best to satisfy her. Likewise, Lin Ling cared deeply for her brother. There were things they wouldn't necessarily tell their mother but would always share with each other. Sometimes, even when Lin Ling made a mistake, she would first seek help from Lin Feng instead of going to their mother.
The bond between the two siblings couldn't simply be summed up with the word "kinship."
Seeing that long-missed yet familiar gaze made Lin Ling quicken her steps and throw herself into Lin Feng's embrace, crying out, "Brother, you're finally back! I was so worried about you!"
It seemed this girl was so emotional because she saw that Lin Feng was unharmed.
Seeing Lin Ling's reaction, Lin Feng affectionately patted her head and comforted her, saying, "Look, I'm perfectly fine! Alright now, stop crying. You're grown up; don't let others laugh at you."
"I will cry! I will cry! I’m not afraid of anyone laughing at me," Lin Ling replied playfully in Lin Feng's arms upon hearing his doting words again.
"Hehe... Alright then, since you’re not afraid of being laughed at, I don’t mind either," Lin Feng said as he stroked Lin Ling's back while she acted spoiled in his embrace.
