It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Little Tao pulled Liu Aihua up. He was furious. "What are you trying to do?"

The muscular man didn't reply to him. He just smiled and continued attacking Little Tao furiously.

Luckily, Little Tao was agile. Although he had Liu Aihua beside him, he still managed to dodge all the attacks.

The muscular man's eyes turned vicious when he couldn't hit Little Tao. He suddenly changed his target and started attacking Liu Aihua. Little Tao was afraid that Liu Aihua would be hurt so he couldn't dodge as freely as before, making his movements seem restricted. As for Liu Aihua, she didn't panic at all, she just stared at the man's fist intently.

This wasn't the normal reaction for a ten-year-old who was in danger. Ma Yizhe furrowed his brows as he watched at the side. Then, he turned to look at the Little Four Mercenary Team, they seemed oblivious to the fact that one of their team members was in danger.

Ma Yizhe was arrogant and he looked down on everyone, but he didn't want to cause too much unnecessary trouble.

However, the reaction of the members of the Little Four Mercenary Team stunned him greatly. Besides the teenager and the lady who seemed to be the little girl's mother, everyone else was calmly eating their food. Only the two of them looked at the fight with a frightened expression. Some of them even laughed and chatted among themselves.

The two beautiful young ladies didn't look worried too. The lady who seemed more extrovert was pointing at the fight and seemed to be explaining something to the other lady.

'What is happening? Are they not worried about the little girl? Or are they confident that she wouldn't get hurt?'

If it was the first possibility, it wasn't much of a problem. If it was the second… Ma Yizhe turned serious. No matter what the reason was, their calmness proved that they were not easy to deal with.

Ma Yizhe wanted to let his subordinate teach Little Tao a lesson but now, he shouted, "Zhang Mo, come back."

Zhang Mo, who was the muscular man, instantly came back to Ma Yizhe's side.

Ma Yizhe turned to look at Ling Lan and gave an ambiguous smile. "Leader Jiang, please watch over your members if you want to prevent unnecessary troubles."

Ma Yizhe decided to be careful. He asked Ling Lan to bring Liu Aihua away so that he wouldn't offend the Little Four Mercenary Team too much.

All the members of Little Four Mercenary Team looked at Ling Lan as they waited for her reply.

As for Little Tao, he took this opportunity to push Liu Aihua away. He was the one who offended them. He shouldn't implicate this little girl who kindly came to give him some food.

Ling Lan raised her head and glanced at Ma Yizhe. She calmly twirled the knife in her hand and cut off a small piece of steak in front of her. She placed it inside her mouth and chew it slowly. She only replied after she finished eating the piece of steak. "What's the matter?"

The members of the Little Four Mercenary Team smiled. It looks like their Boss wanted to interfere with this matter.

Her nonchalant attitude infuriated Ma Yizhe. His gaze turned cold as he said angrily, "I've reminded you already. Since you don't mind, don't blame us if anything bad happens."

Little Tao got agitated when he heard that the Little Four Mercenary Team wasn't going to care about Liu Aihua anymore. He shouted, "Leader Jiang, this has nothing to do with her. Please forgive her for acting rashly." He heard that many mercenary teams would give up on a member that was disobedient. Little Tao was still young so he thought that Liu Aihua had angered Ling Lan because she gave her food away on her own accord.

'What a simple and naive fellow.' Liu Furong took a sip of wine and thought. However, he approved of his kindness in helping Liu Aihua.

Luo Yi smiled brightly. He lowered his voice and said, "Little Liu, you can groom this kid."

"Why?" Liu Furong was surprised.

Luo Yi continued smiling. "You need to find a son-in-law, right? Compared to letting her be fooled by some random young man, why not groom a few talented people now so you won't have to worry in the future."

Liu Furong's expression turned dark. "What are you talking about? Old Luo, my daughter is still young." He suddenly understood the worry of being a father. He now had to be conscious about protecting his daughter from being fooled by some stupid brat.

Liu Furong had some admiration for Little Tao but now, it was all gone.

Ling Lan looked at the agitated Little Tao. She touched her chin and smiled as she asked, "What if I don't want to?"

'I have changed my aura into a gentle person now. Why does he still think that I am so heartless that I would abandon my own members?'

Little Tao's expression changed drastically. He looked at Ma Yizhe and his men who were getting restless. He instantly made a decision. He said calmly, "Although I don't have much capabilities, I can still help with small matters. If you are willing to continue protecting her, I'll owe you my life. Anytime you need it, you can come and take it."

"Little Tao!" Yuan Mulin shouted angrily. 'Why is this kid so stupid? How can he owe his life to a little girl he just met?;

Plus, it was obvious that those people would help the little girl no matter what. The little girl might not be important to them, but no one in the right mind would take a step back.

"Little Aihua, you used one drumstick to get a life. It's well worth it," Ling Lan said calmly.

'A drumstick for a life? Worth it? What is Brother Jiang Hui saying?' Little Aihua looked at the drumstick that was still in her hand while looking puzzled.

"I'm sorry, this young man belongs to me now. Leader Ma, please forgive him for my sake." Ling Lan really wanted to have a relaxing trip. She also hoped that their journey would be quiet and peaceful.

Ma Yizhe narrowed his eyes. He said coldly, "Leader Jiang, are you standing up for him?" Ma Yizhe felt that Ling Lan was purposely trying to suppress him.

Ling Lan cut another piece of steak and placed it in her mouth. She said indifferently, "Are you not planning to solve this peacefully?"

The members of the Little Four Mercenary Team put down whatever they were doing and looked at Ma Yizhe and his team. The atmosphere in the warehouse turned tense suddenly. A huge battle seemed imminent.

The leader of Poison Teeth, Jiang Bizhi, had decided to sit on the fence. Ye Shao and Dibi Luya exchanged glances with one another. In the next second, Ye Shao stood up and smiled. "Leader Ma, the child just made a mistake. If you get angry at him, you will be stooping to their level. Come, let's have a chat with all the leaders." He turned and looked at Ling Lan, "Leader Jiang, what do you think?"

Ling Lan smiled gently. "I'm okay. I just wonder if Leader Ma is willing to do it." Ling Lan didn't want to create trouble, especially unnecessary trouble.

Ma Yizhe snorted. Ye Shao comforted him for a while before he decided to sit down for a chat.
