Tao Hao's thoughts raced, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes. At this moment, he saw this knife as the tool for his revenge.

"However, that's no longer important."

Tao Hao muttered to himself, his voice low and cold, his eyes filled with determination, as if he were prepared to perish together with the enemy.

Tao Hao stood up from the ground, suddenly pulled out a fruit knife, pointed the blade at Chen Dong, his arm trembling slightly with anger, and roared, "Chen Dong, it's all your fault! You've ruined everything for me!"

The passersby were stunned by the sudden scene. Several timid girls were the first to scream, their voices sharp and piercing: "Ah! Someone has a knife!"

"Call the police!"

A middle-aged man shouted loudly, while taking out his phone to dial the police.

"Help!"

An elderly woman turned pale with fright and desperately pulled her child back.

When Chen Dong saw Tao Hao pull out a fruit knife, his expression instantly turned serious. He immediately turned to Chu Mengran and said, "Mengran, run! Go call the police!" His voice was urgent and firm.

Chu Mengran was terrified. Her body trembled slightly, but she forced herself to nod and ran towards the phone booth on the street corner.

Chen Dong took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the knife in Tao Hao's hand, and calmly said, "Tao Hao, calm down, put down the knife, and let's talk this over."

"Talk? What's there to talk about?"

Tao Hao burst into maniacal laughter, his laughter filled with despair and rage.

"If it weren't for you, how could Yueyue have left me? If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up with nothing?"

Tears streamed down his face, tears forced out by anger and pain.

Chen Dong tried to calm him down again: "Tao Hao, you're drunk. Put down the knife and let's talk this over."

"No! I'm going to kill you!"

Tao Hao roared, his facial muscles contorted, brandishing a fruit knife whose blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as he lunged madly at Chen Dong.

Chen Dong quickly dodged to the side. His movements were swift and agile. Tao Hao missed his target and stumbled forward a few steps due to inertia, almost falling.

He steadied himself, his steps somewhat unsteady, and charged towards Chen Dong again, brandishing his knife while cursing under his breath.

Seeing this, Chen Dong immediately retaliated. He had studied Sanda (Chinese kickboxing), was agile, and his eyes revealed calmness and focus.

He seized the opportunity when Tao Hao lunged forward, sidestepped the knife Tao Hao thrust at him, and at the same time raised his right leg and kicked Tao Hao's wrist with great force. Tao Hao felt the pain, and the fruit knife in his hand clattered to the ground.

Tao Hao clutched his injured wrist, his face contorted in pain, but the madness in his eyes did not fade; instead, it intensified.

Ignoring the pain in his wrist, he lunged at Chen Dong again, shouting, "I'll fight you to the death!"

Chen Dong sidestepped Tao Hao's attack with ease, and then, taking advantage of Tao Hao's momentary loss of balance, he executed an over-the-shoulder throw, slamming Tao Hao hard to the ground.

Tao Hao's body crashed to the ground with a dull thud, raising a cloud of dust.

"Tao Hao, I'm warning you, you better behave yourself!"

Chen Dong pressed Tao Hao down, gripping his arms tightly with both hands, and whispered.

Tao Hao struggled desperately, veins bulging on his face, his eyes filled with madness: "Chen Dong, let me go! I'm going to kill you!"

His voice became hoarse from anger and struggle.

Chen Dong frowned and said again, "Tao Hao, do you know what you're doing?"

Just then, the sound of police sirens came from afar, growing louder as they approached. Chu Mengran arrived with the police.

"That's him! He was trying to hurt someone with a knife!"

Chu Mengran's voice was sharp and trembling, filled with the terror of surviving a disaster. Her finger was pointed tightly at Tao Hao, and her arm was trembling slightly.

At this moment, her face was as pale as paper, her eyes filled with lingering fear. Recalling the scene just now, her heart was still pounding wildly in her chest.

The police officers were well-trained and arrived at the scene quickly after receiving the report. Like a group of well-trained cheetahs, they quickly surrounded Tao Hao.

The lead police officer, with sharp eyes, quickly assessed the situation and decisively ordered, "Take him under control!"

The other police officers immediately took action, working in pairs. One officer restrained Tao Hao's arm from the side, while the other quickly pressed his knee against his back, rendering him unable to move. They then skillfully handcuffed him.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Tao Hao was still struggling desperately. His face was flushed red, veins were bulging on his forehead, and large beads of sweat slid down his cheeks.

His eyes were a mixture of pain, anger, and confusion, like a trapped wild beast roaring incessantly.

But all his resistance was in vain. His limbs were firmly controlled, and his body was involuntarily led forward by the police.

Seeing this scene, Chen Dong could no longer suppress his anger.

He strode forward, staring intently at Tao Hao, and roared, "Tao Hao, are you fucking crazy?! Do you know what you just did? You almost caused a disaster!"

Chen Dong's chest heaved violently, and his voice became hoarse with anger.

He clenched his fists, wishing he could rush up and punch Tao Hao again to bring him to his senses.

"What did I do? It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"

Tao Hao was not to be outdone. He struggled and roared, his eyes filled with madness and resentment.

"If it weren't for you, Yueyue would never have left me!"

"You are simply unreasonable!"

Chen Dong was so angry that he was trembling all over.

"You can't force matters of the heart. You couldn't keep her, so why are you blaming me? Do you think you can salvage anything by stabbing someone? You'll only ruin your own life!"

Chu Mengran walked to Chen Dong's side, gently took his arm with both hands, her eyes full of worry and concern.

"Dongzi, don't get angry. Check if you're hurt first."

Her voice was gentle yet urgent as she looked Chen Dong up and down, her eyes filled with heartache.

Chen Dong took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and said to Chu Mengran, "Mengran, I'm fine. It's just that this bastard is so infuriating; he almost hurt you. I'll never forgive him!"

Chu Mengran looked at Tao Hao being taken away by the police, a hint of worry still flashing in her eyes: "Dongzi, will he be sentenced?"

Chen Dong frowned, his face serious, and said, "He was drunk and injured someone with a knife; this is no small matter. Detention is certain, and the public security, procuratorate, and court will prosecute him. Whether he gets a prison sentence depends on the court's judgment. He has to bear the consequences for what he did!"

At this moment, the surrounding crowd was still discussing the matter, with some shaking their heads and sighing, and others condemning Tao Hao's behavior.

The police escorted Tao Hao into a police car, the siren piercing the sky as it slowly drove away into the distance.
