CHAPTER 381: CHAPTER 381: SUBDUING THE THIEF WITH ONE KICK

Xiao Fei didn’t go after the thief to act bravely.

What a joke, this was outside the International Finance Center, with so many people around. His wife had just given birth, and although she had fully recovered thanks to the Replenishing Essence Pill, Xiao Fei still cherished her dearly.

If he ran off to help catch the thief and then looked back to find his wife injured amid the crowd, what should he do?

He was no longer the hot-blooded teenager he once was at eighteen or nineteen.

Now, Xiao Fei.

Was a husband, was a father.

He would consider these two identities before doing anything, thinking thrice before acting.

He gently held Tang Yuxin closer, protecting her more tightly.

Xiao Fei subtly shifted a few steps with her, trying to avoid the crowd.

To Xiao Fei’s surprise, the young man who had been playing guitar and singing just earlier suddenly threw his guitar aside and sprinted towards the thief wearing a baseball cap.

This truly surprised Xiao Fei.

He hadn’t expected this seemingly poor young man, selling songs on the street, to act in such a way.

Seeing someone daring to block him, a fierce light flashed in the thief’s eyes.

One hand gripping the expensive handbag snatched from the woman, his other hand pulled out a spring knife from somewhere, shouting fiercely at the young man rushing towards him:

"Get lost!!!!!"

The young man hesitated when he saw the spring knife, but ultimately continued to confront him.

Tang Yuxin was already pale with fright, clutching Xiao Fei’s arm tightly.

The young man tried to dodge the knife and intercept the thief, but his build was much frailer compared to the thief, probably due to financial constraints.

Upon contact, the thief slashed the young man’s arm, leaving him with a wound. The intense pain chilled his heart, but he still gritted his teeth, attempting to hold the thief.

Predictably, he was pushed away by the thief.

Unfortunately for him, after pushing the boy away, the thief ran directly towards Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin.

They were now away from the crowd, making this the best route for escape.

Xiao Fei glanced at the young man clutching his arm, still trying to chase the thief, and silently sighed.

"Honey, be careful."

"Huh? Honey, you..."

Tang Yuxin hadn’t grasped the meaning of Xiao Fei’s words before he let go of her waist and took a step forward.

His right foot supporting his body, he twirled on his toes, spinning his entire body.

His left leg swung out.

A beautiful roundhouse kick, landing directly on the thief’s chest.

The movement was extraordinarily swift, exceptionally dazzling, akin to a movie scene.

Moving so quickly, many people missed seeing it clearly.

The thief hit by Xiao Fei’s roundhouse kick felt as if he had crashed into an iron board.

A sharp pain surged through his chest, an unprecedented force acted upon his body.

The thief was sent flying by Xiao Fei, landing with a thud two or three meters away.

He struggled twice, trying to get up, but the rending pain in his chest made it impossible, not even allowing him to cry out in agony.

Xiao Fei knew that with this kick, he had probably broken the thief’s rib.

Elsewhere.

Seeing the thief subdued, the previously hesitant crowd immediately surrounded, with several men turning the thief over and pressing him down.

"Be careful, his rib is broken because of my kick. If you mess around, it might pierce his internal organs, and he’ll die," Xiao Fei said.

Xiao Fei’s words shocked them, making them hesitate to do anything to the thief.

Meanwhile.

Those people stared at Xiao Fei in awe.

Ribs...

Broken by a kick!?

Just like that?

Isn’t this like a movie?

Some doubted, but seeing that the thief couldn’t stand up after just one kick, appearing as if he was breathing more shaky breaths than strong ones, they couldn’t help but believe.

Xiao Fei returned to Tang Yuxin, who hugged his arm tightly.

"Honey, you were so cool just now!"

"Am I ever not cool?"

Xiao Fei smiled brightly at Tang Yuxin.

This smile momentarily brightened the world for all the girls around.

However, upon seeing Tang Yuxin right next to Xiao Fei, they all felt a wave of gloom.

He’s taken.

And by someone so strong that it leaves no room for competition or hopes of winning.

"Let’s go, shall we?"

"Okay..."

With Xiao Fei leading, Tang Yuxin followed him to the side of the brave young man.

"Are you okay?"

Xiao Fei asked the young man.

"I’m fine... ouch..."

The young man shook his head, feeling deeply inferior facing the couple Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin.

The two in front of him were obviously no ordinary people!

"Not bad, among so many onlookers, you dared to come forward, well done."

Xiao Fei smiled, complimenting the young man before asking, "What’s your name?"

"Huh? I... I’m Nie Wei."

"Nie Wei... eh? Okay, got it. Do you like singing?"

"Yeah, I love it!"

Nie Wei felt like he was facing a teacher, a father.

Even though he didn’t know Xiao Fei, whenever Xiao Fei asked a question, Nie Wei couldn’t help but answer obediently.

"Honey, do you have paper and a pen?"

"Sure do!"

Tang Yuxin smiled, taking a pen and a notebook from her bag.

Xiao Fei took the pen and paper, wrote his phone number and name on it, then tore off the paper.

"Take this. If you’re interested in entering the music world, bring this to Shengshi Entertainment. Say I sent you."

Stunned, Nie Wei felt dizzy as he received the piece of paper from Xiao Fei.

Had he... met a benefactor?

"Young man, are you okay?"

At this moment, the police from the nearest station arrived due to the report.

One of them, after understanding the situation, approached Nie Wei and Xiao Fei.

Nie Wei shook his head: "I’m fine, I’ll take care of the wound at the hospital later."

"Thank you! Thank you, young man!"

The woman who was robbed also came over, profusely thanking Nie Wei before turning to Xiao Fei.

Her eyes sparkled, her gaze captivated, her cheeks flushed.

"Handsome man, thank you, your move was amazing just now..."

"Were you the one who kicked? Comrade?"

The police officer asked, looking Xiao Fei up and down.

"Trained? Wow, kicking a rib broken with one hit!"

"Don’t worry, as long as you don’t move him recklessly, he’s fine. I controlled my strength, the fracture hasn’t harmed his internals."

After speaking, Xiao Fei left with Tang Yuxin.

The woman wanted to say something but glanced at Xiao Fei and then at Tang Yuxin, protected by him at his side, sighing quietly.

A man like this...

No chance!

Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin didn’t know that everything had been recorded by those streaming or filming videos in the square.

Now, Xiao Fei only wanted to enjoy shopping with his cooped-up treasured wife and have fun.
