"Do I look like I'm talking to you?" Lin Mo narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness flashing through them.
But Chen Ziyang's attention was all on Li Mengxue, not even bothering to look at Lin Mo or acknowledge him. He arrogantly said, "Miss, I'm Chen Ziyang from the Chen family. Since I've chosen such a good spot, why don't you grace me with your presence and have a meal together?"
Li Mengxue frowned, a trace of disgust flickering in her beautiful eyes. She thought to herself, "I've seen shameless people, but never such shameless ones. This spot was clearly chosen by Lin Mo, yet he claims he chose it."
"Get lost within three seconds," Lin Mo said coldly.
His words immediately caught the attention of many in the restaurant. When they saw the situation, many shook their heads in sighs.
"What? What did you say?" Chen Ziyang asked, seeming to not believe his ears.
"Three," Lin Mo said calmly.
"Li Family's useless trash dares to tell me to get lost within three seconds? Haha, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard," Chen Ziyang laughed heartily.
"Lin Mo, even I, a man wasted by wine and women, can easily deal with a waste like you who doesn't even have the strength of a martial spirit. Where do you get the courage to say such things?" Chen Ziyang laughed.
"Two," Lin Mo didn't reply, just said coldly.
"This Lin Mo... what's going on?"
"Who knows? Maybe he doesn't want to lose face in front of a beauty."
"Hmph, what's the point of pretending? It would be even more embarrassing to end up with a swollen face."
...
Before the Chen family guards could do anything, Lin Mo slapped Chen Ziyang across the face with lightning speed.
The crisp sound echoed throughout the restaurant.
"I must be seeing things. Did Lin Mo dare to hit Chen Ziyang? And in front of the Chen family guards?"
"This kid is seeking death, isn't he? Those guards are all experts at the Martial Spirit Triple Realm. Even if Lin Mo wasn't trash, he wouldn't be their match."
"Sigh, saving face can really kill a person."
...
The surrounding onlookers were in shock, some even sighed, thinking that Lin Mo was sacrificing his life for the sake of face.
"You dare to hit me?" Chen Ziyang covered his left cheek, glaring at Lin Mo.
But what followed was another slap from Lin Mo, this time landing on his right cheek.
"I told you to get lost, didn't you hear me?" Lin Mo said.
"Damn it, I'll cripple you." Chen Ziyang was furious.
Immediately, he signaled for the guards to step back; he wanted to personally cripple Lin Mo.
However, just as he prepared to strike with all his strength, Lin Mo raised his hand.
With seemingly casual ease, he grabbed the hand that Chen Ziyang thought could slap him flying.
"How... how is this possible?" Chen Ziyang was horrified. Even with all his strength, he couldn't budge Lin Mo's grip.
Lin Mo, who was supposed to be a useless martial artist, how could he possess such strength?
But Lin Mo didn't give him a chance to think. He kicked Chen Ziyang, and the latter was sent flying out of the window like a cannonball, landing heavily on the street outside.
"Mengxue, sit down. Don't mind him," Lin Mo said casually to Li Mengxue.
The people around were stunned.
Could the rumors be false? Was Lin Mo not a waste after all?
"Damn it, I'll kill him."
"I'll make him wish he was dead!"
Before the bystanders could recover from their shock, Chen Ziyang rushed back in from the door.
The guards, who were still in shock, finally snapped out of it and prepared to subdue Lin Mo.
"Brother Lin Mo..." Li Mengxue's face showed concern.
But Lin Mo just smiled and said, "Don't worry."
Then, the dragon energy surged within Lin Mo's body. He unleashed a swift chop towards the three guards.
Bang!
As his arm swung, the dragon energy transformed into terrifying lightning, covering his arm.
It was his newly learned martial skill, Instant Thunder s***h!
Seeing Lin Mo's attack, the three guards naturally activated their own martial skills.
But all their efforts were in vain.
In the next moment, three explosions rang out as the guards were sent flying.
At this moment, there was only one guard left, ready to attack.
Lin Mo's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he struck out with a fist.
Crack!
After the collision, a crisp sound of bones breaking echoed out.
The guard screamed in agony.
"How... how is this possible? All four of them are experts at the Martial Spirit Triple Realm."
"My god, who said Lin Mo was a waste? I'll give him a big slap when I see him. He's definitely a genius."
...
After the extreme shock, the people in the restaurant immediately changed their tune.
They were afraid that Lin Mo would come after them for what they had said earlier.
"Do you want me dead?" Lin Mo clapped his hands and looked at Chen Ziyang with indifference.
"That... absolutely not, absolutely not," Chen Ziyang's face was already pale, and his feet were trembling uncontrollably.
"Oh, by the way, I'm a little tight on money lately. Can you lend me some?" Lin Mo suddenly thought that Chen Ziyang, being a playboy, must have a lot of money on him. And he needed a good amount of gold coins to buy Soul Essences.
"Sure, sure... I have 2,000 gold coins here. All for you," Chen Ziyang hurriedly took out his Qiankun bag, tremblingly handed it to Lin Mo.
After checking it, Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, you can leave now."
"Yes, thank you, Young Master Lin," Chen Ziyang nodded repeatedly.
"Wait." Just as he was about to leave, Lin Mo called out.
This one word "wait" made Chen Ziyang tremble in fear.
"I hope you won't harass innocent women in the future. Otherwise, every time I see you, I'll hit you," Lin Mo said calmly.
Chen Ziyang hastily agreed, but after leaving, a trace of sinister intent flashed in his eyes.
