The thugs behind Huang San also joined in the jeering, making a series of mocking noises.

"Wow, you've got quite a temper!"

Huang San walked up to Chen Ming, snatched the broom from his hand, and slammed it to the ground.

"Let me tell you, Chen Ming, I'm the one who calls the shots on this street!"

"If you know what's good for you, shut down the internet cafe right now and get out of here!"

Chen Ming looked at Huang San and thought to himself that now was not the time to confront them head-on.

"Huang San, don't push your luck!"

Chen Ming squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"You've gone too far? I'm going too far today, what are you going to do about it?"

Huang San laughed arrogantly and shoved Chen Ming.

Chen Ming stumbled and almost fell.

He steadied himself, his anger finally bursting forth, and swung his fist fiercely towards Huang San's face...

Chen Ming used all his strength in this punch, carrying his long-suppressed anger.

Huang San was clearly caught off guard by Chen Ming's sudden attack and took the punch squarely.

"Ouch!"

Huang San let out a scream, covered his nose, and staggered back a few steps, blood flowing down between his fingers.

Upon seeing this, the thugs behind him immediately surrounded him, glaring menacingly at Chen Ming.

"Damn it, how dare you hit Third Brother!"

"Chen Ming, you're asking for it!"

"Fuck him!"

Shouts rose and fell, and several thugs were itching to rush forward.

Chen Ming's heart skipped a beat. Although he was angry, he hadn't lost his temper.

I am no match for this group of people on my own.

He grabbed a chair, held it in front of him, and shouted in a fierce but cowardly manner.

"Don't come any closer! I'll smash anyone who comes near!"

Huang San covered his nose and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Go get him! I'll take responsibility if you kill him!"

Just as Huang San's thugs were about to rush forward, a clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out.

"Stop it all!"

Everyone was stunned and turned to look.

A young girl dressed in a reporter's uniform, with her hair in a ponytail, stood at the entrance of the internet cafe, holding a video camera in her hand.

Huang San looked her up and down and sneered.

"Where did this little brat come from? Get the hell out of here if you don't want to get yourself killed!"

Chen Ming recognized the person at a glance; it was Liu Jiali, the reporter who had previously exposed Zhao Feilong's misdeeds.

His heart tightened, worried that Liu Jiali would be implicated, and he quickly called out.

"Reporter Liu, this has nothing to do with you. You should leave now. I can handle this myself!"

Liu Jiali showed no sign of backing down. Instead, she pointed the camera at Huang San and the thugs behind him and said firmly.

“I have already called the police, and I have recorded your malicious assault on others.”

"When the police arrive, none of you will escape!"

Upon hearing this, Huang San panicked.

He covered his still-bleeding nose and glared fiercely at Chen Ming.

"You just wait, you brat!"

After saying that, he led a few thugs and fled in panic.

Seeing that the group had run away, Liu Jiali breathed a sigh of relief and turned to ask with concern.

"Mr. Chen, are you alright? Did they hurt you?"

Chen Ming rubbed his aching shoulder and shook his head.

"I'm fine, thank you so much, Reporter Liu. If you hadn't shown up in time, I'm afraid I would have..."

"It was just a small favor."

Liu Jiali smiled and said, "Thanks to you for what happened last time. I also want to thank you for providing the clue."

The two exchanged a smile, wiping the slate clean of their past grievances.

"By the way, what happened to Zhao Feilong's matter?" Chen Ming asked curiously.

“He has been arrested by the police,” Liu Jiali said with a smug tone.

"Thanks to the evidence you provided, he has no way to escape this time."

Chen Ming nodded, feeling a sense of relief.

The problem that had been troubling him for days was finally solved, and the internet cafe was finally able to reopen.

"By the way, Reporter Liu, what brings you here all of a sudden?"

Chen Ming was still somewhat puzzled when he recalled the scene from earlier.

“Oh, it’s like this,” Liu Jiali explained, “I originally came here to interview a newly opened shopping mall nearby. When I passed by here, I saw what looked like a fight inside, so I went in to take a look, but I didn’t expect…”

Chen Ming suddenly realized what was going on and felt even more grateful for Liu Jiali's righteous help.

"Reporter Liu, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I would be in big trouble today."

Chen Ming said gratefully, while rubbing his shoulder that had been hit.

Liu Jiali smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to help someone in need."

"But speaking of which, Mr. Chen, it seems like you knew me quite well from the very beginning?"

"How did you contact me when you wanted to expose Zhao Feilong?" She tilted her head, a look of doubt in her eyes.

Chen Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.

He can't exactly say he was reborn, can he?

His eyes darted around, and he quickly explained, "Zhao Feilong's many evil deeds have caused quite a stir, and everyone in the neighborhood knows about them."

"And it's even gotten to me. It's hard for me not to know about it. Reporter Liu is a hero here now!"

Liu Jiali blushed slightly after being praised like that, and waved her hand.

"No, I just did what I was supposed to do."

She paused, then turned her gaze to the internet cafe that had been smashed to pieces, her brows furrowed.

"What happened? How did it get like this?"

Chen Ming sighed and told Liu Jiali in detail how Zhao Feilong had coerced and bribed him to take over his internet cafe.

Of course, he omitted the part about his rebirth, only saying that he was unwilling to sell at a low price, which led to Zhao Feilong's revenge.

After hearing Chen Ming's account, Liu Jiali stomped her feet in anger: "That Zhao Feilong is absolutely despicable! He's utterly lawless!"

"It's a good thing he's been caught now, otherwise who knows how many more people he would have harmed!"

Chen Ming chimed in, "Yeah, this guy should have been in jail a long time ago!"

As the two were talking, Chen Ming suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

At this time of year, newspapers, television, and other media have a huge influence and are the main channels for promoting products.

Looking at the young and beautiful reporter in front of him, he suddenly had an idea.

"Reporter Liu," Chen Ming said, rubbing his hands together, somewhat embarrassed.

"Look, my internet cafe has reopened. Could you... could you help me promote it?"

Liu Jiali paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Advertising is fine, but I need to see the actual situation of your internet cafe first."

"We journalists must be truthful and not engage in false propaganda."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ming felt immediately reassured.

Liu Jiali has a strong sense of justice and hates evil. She cannot tolerate any wrongdoing.

If there were really any problems with her internet cafe, she definitely wouldn't help promote it.
