Chapter 1166: Grab the Bull by the Horns
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“What the heck is this?” Zhao Yu had yet to react, but Miao Kun was already anxious. “Where is his manager? Get him over here so I can reprimand him!
“Today is my daughter’s engagement party. Does he want to cause a commotion? Does he not want the commission anymore?”
“Yes, sir…” One of his men quickly went to get Thorngrove’s manager.
At that moment, Thorngrove was still shouting at Zhao Yu, with his finger pointing at him. Although the audience did not understand what he was saying, they could tell from his furious expression that he was trying to provoke Zhao Yu!
“Is this fellow mad?” Miao Kun looked up and down at him, seemingly confounded. Grabbing Zhao Yu, he told him, “Xiao Zhao, ignore him. This must be a residual effect from you beating him up!”
“Thorngrove. Mr. Thorngrove…” The emcee understood Russian and was worried that Miao Kun would blame him if he allowed Thorngrove to continue ranting. He snatched back the microphone and said, “Mr. Thorngrove, please refrain from being so vulgar…”
Wah…
It wasn’t certain whether the emcee did it on purpose or if he was simply an idiot. What he had said basically confirmed the fact that Thorngrove was indeed verbally insulting Zhao Yu.
This caused an uproar in the audience, who began to discuss what was happening amongst themselves animatedly. Some of them even looked excited at what was about to happen.
“Erm…”
Miao Kun’s expression became sullen. The VIP guests beside him immediately withdrew their smiles, becoming solemn. Who knew what they were thinking?
Thorngrove, on the other hand, became increasingly arrogant. Giving no face to the emcee, he pushed him aside and hogged the microphone.
“Hey! Hey! Thorn… Why!?” A fellow, who was probably his manager, was slapping the side of the boxing cage and shouting at Thorngrove while rushing onstage.
Thorngrove paid the man no heed, merely continuing his tirade at Zhao Yu and even flipping him the middle finger!
Wah…
Thorngrove’s egotistical behavior was becoming a little too much, and the situation was getting out of hand.
“F*king h*ll!” Miao Kun said through gritted teeth. His fingers subconsciously slipped to his gun holster. He was on the verge of withdrawing his gun!
“Lao Miao! Lao Miao!” This did not escape the eyes of the old man next to him, who tried to deter him. “Don’t be rash. You can’t be rash! Something is up, don’t fall into their trap!”
“Wahaha…” Maniacal laughter suddenly wafted out. Zhao Yu finally responded! He pressed down Miao Kun’s hand, saying, “Father-in-law! He’s right! Don’t get angry over something as trivial as this! Hahaha…”
Turning toward Thorngrove, Zhao Yu then held out both of his middle fingers at him!
Wah…
The crowd erupted again. Zhao Yu’s act of flipping the bird had added to the crowd’s enthusiasm.
“Hmm?” Thorngrove glared at Zhao Yu and smashed his fists together. He then beckoned at Zhao Yu, as if saying: Come up if you dare.
“F*ck you!” Zhao Yu glared back at him, then removed his tuxedo without hesitation.
Miao Kun hurriedly stopped Zhao Yu from going up. “Don’t, don’t, don’t. Don’t be rash, Xiao Zhao! How did you hold me back just now? There’s obviously something fishy, don’t fall for his tricks!”
“That’s right…” said someone in the background. “That’s the world champion! Don’t know how you won last time, but if you go up now, then…”
The person’s voice trailed off, not wanting to say anything worse.
“Yeah!” the old man sensibly advised. “Today is Zhao Yu and Miao Ying’s big day, how could we let someone like him ruin the mood? Listen to me; just ignore him! Treat him like a mad dog barking! Lao Miao, don’t pay him later!”
“Sir…” The butler proposed somewhat tentatively, “How about we let out The Beast – Essien? Let them start the match early?”
“Hm…” Miao Kun seemed apprehensive as he glanced at his watch.
“Hahaha…” At that moment, Thorngrove regained control of the microphone and started cackling maniacally. It was apparent from the sneer on his face that he was mocking Zhao Yu.
“F*cking h*ll!” Zhao Yu scowled. “I owned you! You lost to me, and you dare kick up a big fuss here? Wait and see how I’m going to deal with you!”
After saying that, Zhao Yu rolled up his sleeves and got ready to go into the cage.
The audience watched with bated breath and started another round of applause.
“Zhao Yu, you can’t, you’re not trained in the same form of martial arts. You can’t beat him!” Miao Kun tried to stop him once again.
“Father-in-law!” Zhao Yu was also anxious. Grabbing Miao Kun’s arms, he said boldly, “A real man can be beaten to death but not scared to death! If I were to let a foreigner scare me, then how would I face other people in the future? And how would that reflect on you?”
“That…” Miao Kun was put on the spot.
“I’m going to take the bull by the horns!” boasted Zhao Yu. “Even if it’s a conspiracy, I’ll be resigned to it! We need to fight it out today until a victor is determined! Otherwise, someone might claim that I had an unfair advantage last time!”
“But this…” Although Zhao Yu had succeeded in convincing Miao Kun, it was evident that Miao Kun was still worried.
“Don’t worry, father-in-law!” Zhao Yu said assuredly. “I will not let anyone humiliate our family like this!”
Zhao Yu shed his shirt, revealing a toned and muscular torso, and started walking toward the boxing ring.
As soon as Zhao Yu climbed onstage, Thorngrove relinquished control of the microphone to the emcee. He crossed his arms and taunted Zhao Yu!
Amazed at Zhao Yu’s bravado, the crowd cheered loudly!
However, they weren’t really cheering him on. They just wanted to see how this match, between two men who weren’t equaled, would turn out.
Although Zhao Yu had a narrow win last time, everyone knew what had really happened! Therefore, no one really expected Zhao Yu to win. They were expecting an embarrassment to befall the Miao family.
The emcee was a little shocked at the turn of events and took a few moments before resuming his duties. After regaining composure, he finally announced the groom-to-be, Zhao Yu, as Thorngrove’s opponent instead of The Beast.
A professional referee came forward, wanting Zhao Yu to change into shorts for the match. Pushing him aside, Zhao Yu removed his leather shoes and socks, entering the cage in his pants instead.
Right after, the crowd broke into loud cheers once again. The level of excitement reached a boiling point.
The referee had no choice but to follow him into the cage and got ready to start the match.
Something interesting happened just then.
Having learned his lesson, Thorngrove dismissed his coaching team and cleared the area behind him. He made sure he faced Zhao Yu at all times, in fear that Zhao Yu would ambush him from behind again!
But something surprising happened at that moment!
With Thorngrove still staring angrily at him, Zhao Yu slowly turned toward him, exposing his own back to Thorngrove.
