But at this moment, Jiang Chen's calm demeanor showcased his domineering style to the fullest.
"Hoo hoo hoo~"
Jin Shengkai's breathing grew rapid, his anger bubbling like a volcano ready to erupt at any moment.
"Don't think that just because you're a Martial Artist, you can act without fear. Behind me, there are people we can't afford to offend," Jin Shengkai said, his tone heavy and his gaze sharp.
"Whoosh~ Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the chopsticks in Jiang Chen's hand vanished again. Jin Shengkai reacted quickly and looked down, only to find that the chopsticks were not embedded in his foot but rather stuck in the sides of his ears.
"You've gone too far! I won't let this go. If you have the guts, leave your name!" Jin Shengkai shouted angrily.
"Jiang Chen," Jiang Chen replied casually. "Now, you can leave."
"We'll see about that," Jin Shengkai retorted furiously. A wise man knows when to retreat; being involved with the underworld, he understood that there were many skilled practitioners in Huaxia Martial Arts. This time he had encountered a master and would have to temporarily endure the humiliation, plotting revenge later.
Holding his ears, Jin Shengkai hurriedly left, his two bodyguards limping behind him.
The restaurant gradually returned to calm. Jiang Chen continued eating, his expression indifferent as if nothing had happened.
While Jiang Chen remained unfazed, Xiong Sumei and the others could not maintain their composure.
Qian Wenwu and his companions sat at their table, looking ashen. No one could imagine that Jiang Chen was indeed a hidden master; the shock he caused them was immense.
"That kid is surprisingly powerful? He must have some hidden secrets for getting close to Sumei," Chen Shuifeng suddenly scoffed. For some reason, seeing Jiang Chen's sudden display of strength left her feeling uneasy.
"Actually, it's not that impressive. I've seen true martial arts masters before. I once encountered a Master of Transformation who was a real expert—able to walk on walls and harm someone just by plucking a leaf. This kid using chopsticks is nothing; he's just got decent qi skills. Those online qi performers can pierce steel plates with chopsticks; this kid is probably about the same level," Qian Wenwu snapped back to reality, though he was internally amazed by Jiang Chen's technique.
"I see. But he's quite bold; Boss Jin doesn't seem like a good person either—he'll probably seek revenge," Li Chengdu remarked.
"That's not our concern. This matter has nothing to do with us; let's not get involved," Qian Wenwu said dismissively.
"What about Sumei?" Chen Shuifeng asked.
"We're barely able to protect ourselves; we can't worry about her. Besides, Boss Jin won't do anything to Xiong Sumei as long as she pays up. The situation was almost resolved until that kid intervened and escalated things. Now it might take ten million to settle it," Qian Wenwu analyzed.
The group continued to murmur quietly among themselves, throwing cold remarks at Jiang Chen.
"Miss Xiong, let's eat. Don't dwell on what just happened," Jiang Chen said with a slight smile.
"Uh, okay," Xiong Sumei replied awkwardly, hastily starting to eat again. However, after such an incident, how could she not be concerned? What had initially seemed like a minor issue had escalated into something serious now that Jiang Chen had injured someone; it wouldn't be easily resolved.
Distractedly taking a few bites, Xiong Sumei felt increasingly anxious, glancing frequently at the restaurant entrance in fear that Jin Shengkai and his group would return.
