Chapter 9
C9 – Friendly Attitude
Boss Yan met his end with a single slap from Pei Yu.
Moments before, he had been issuing threats, but now he lay lifeless.
Onlookers gasped, staring at Pei Yu in shock.
“Anyone else care to challenge me?” Pei Yu swept his gaze across the room and asked coolly.
The bodyguards dropped to their knees, pleading for mercy, while everyone else fell silent.
With no response, Pei Yu clasped his hands behind him and strolled out.
Pei Yu wasn’t one to be intimidated. But if anyone dared to hurt his sister, Pei Yuner, he would ensure they lived to regret it. No matter who it was, Pei Yu would not hesitate to exact vengeance.
Pei Yuner was his Achilles’ heel—untouchable.
“Pei Yu.”
As Pei Yu made his exit, Goldy hurried after him.
“Still thinking of inviting me to compete?”
“It’s too late for that. Catching a cab home would be a hassle. Take my car instead.”

“Thanks.”
“Don’t mention it. I’ve got several cars. Use this one for now.”
Goldy knew how to play his cards. Recognizing Pei Yu’s formidable strength, he wasted no time in ingratiating himself.
Knowing a martial artist of Third Grade or higher could be a boon for his future. Missing this chance to ingratiate himself with Pei Yu would be foolish.
Pei Yu unapologetically commandeered Goldy’s car.
The following day at the hospital, Pei Yu settled a bill of a million yuan at the payment desk. Money was no longer an issue for him.
“Mr. Pei, take care.”
“Mr. Pei, if there’s anything you need, give me a call.”
The nurses, who were typically standoffish towards Pei Yu, quickly warmed up to him after witnessing his hefty payment.
Eager to engage, they saw an opportunity. Anyone who could drop a million yuan without blinking was far from ordinary. Becoming Pei Yu’s girlfriend could mean a life of luxury.
Pei Yu inwardly scoffed at the sudden change in demeanor. Without wealth, you’re less than nothing—even to a dog.
When you’re flush with cash, you’ll find yourself surrounded by all sorts of people eager to cozy up to you.
“Bro, why’s there so much meat in the meal today? Chicken legs are my favorite!”
Pei Yuner’s voice was cheerful as she ate the lunch Lin Xiu had brought to her bedside, her smile beaming with joy.
“As long as you’re happy. From now on, I’ll make sure to get you chicken legs every day so you can eat your fill,” Lin Xiu said, affectionately squeezing Pei Yuner’s cheek.
“Brother, you’re the best to me.”
Pei Yuner’s smile was childlike, yet her heart was heavy with sorrow. She was well aware of Lin Xiu’s financial situation.
The cost of her treatment had already put a tremendous strain on Pei Yu. Knowing that he was bringing her treats despite his own hardships made her feel deeply troubled.
“Take good care of yourself. I’ve got to handle some things, so I need to head out now.”
“Alright, see you later.”
Once Lin Xiu had left, Pei Yuner’s tears could no longer be contained. Her large eyes brimmed with sorrow.
“Brother, I’m so sorry. It’s my fault you’re in this predicament.”
She was consumed with guilt, feeling indebted to Pei Yu.
Unbeknownst to Pei Yuner, Pei Yu wasn’t in financial distress. In fact, he had just transferred five hundred thousand yuan to Ke Lianxi the day before, settling his debts with the Ke family once and for all.
Shortly thereafter, Pei Yu arrived at the Martial Arts University’s training room where he was an instructor.
It was here that he had previously been knocked unconscious by a brick thrown by one of his students.
Returning to the scene, Pei Yu couldn’t help but feel a twinge of embarrassment.
Today, however, he was here for a different reason—to gauge his combat prowess.
“I refined the bones in my upper limbs last night. My base combat value should have seen an improvement, but I’m not sure where I stand now.”
Since it was lunchtime, the training room was unusually quiet. In the expansive space, Pei Yu was the sole figure practicing.
Approaching the combat strength tester, Pei Yu clenched his fist and delivered a powerful blow.
